A 4.2 for Nightlife after giving Bilingual a 4.7... The average of the first 7 albums doesn't even reach 7... I see your highest score is an 8... I don't see you as a very big fan :shock:

I am a big fan 8)

It is a rating of 42 not 4.2 on Nightlife and a rating of 47 for Bilingual and not 4.7

Hi, the final score for each album is out of 100, Actually & Please I rated at 80 and Introspective at 78 etc

The scoring format is explained on each album post, hope that clears it up for you.

Vocal gets a zero? ARE YOU MAD?!
Have a look at my taste in music:
http://www.last.fm/user/NikacPokac

That’s the thing about negative energy, about hatred. It can be positive. It throws into relief all the things you know you like. It tells you, by elimination, what you’re about. Sometimes you can only define yourself by what you hate. Hatred becomes an inspiration; it makes you think, “What I’m doing now I totally believe in, and I don’t care what other people say.” Guided by hatred, you don’t have to follow the herd. - Neil Tennant

Harsh. Worst rated PSB album? Not in my book, easily top 5 for me, top 3 maybe. But hey, that's the beauty of different tastes.
