or just a few of your favorites. Here’s my top ten:

10. Peter Gabriel – Up (2002)
09. Thomas Newman – WALL-E (2008)
08. Massive Attack – Mezzanine (1998)
07. Daisuke Ishiwatari – Guilty Gear XX (2002)
06. Hideki Naganuma – Jet Set Radio (1998)
05. The Pillows – FLCL No.3 (2005)
04. Harry Gregson-Williams – Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
03. Radiohead – In Rainbows (2007)
02. Gackt – Mars (2000)
01. Yasunori Mitsuda – Chrono Cross (1999)

I feel so gimmicky for having so many albums related to Japan up there… 6/10 are video game/anime soundtracks, which is kinda sad. I want to put some more eclectic music on that, but the time will come when it comes. Here are some other contenders for positions:

Regina Spektor – Soviet Kitsch
Portishead – Dummy
Camille – Le Sac des Filles
M�m – Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy
BT – This Binary Universe
Amon Tobin – Foley Room
Thomas Newman – Finding Nemo
Thomas Newman – American Beauty

Regina Spektor – Begin to Hope

I actually thought her first album Soviet Kitsch was so much better and suited her style more….but hey I’m happy you appreciate good music like Regina 🙂
