this will end in a fight, celine vs mariah vs madonna, etc

OMG, this thread again?
I hope this WONT turn to be war.

Good list, anyway.
Go britney!

I agree, all of these albums have made their mark in history and are captured the world.Critics may not like it but it is the fans who have the say on what is good music.
Mutt lange produced 2 of the top 10 best selling albums in history with ACDC'S(BACK IN BLACK) and SHANIA'S(COME ON OVER).
Mutt also produced def lepards biggest selling albums pyromania and hysteria.
Mutt also wrote many of the songs for all the rock rocks he produced like Poor some sugar on me. The guy is a genius. Oh I forgot to say that Mutt is Shania's husband.

^back in black is the most selling album by a group i think, i´ve read that it has sold >40 million copies!..even more cool is that led zeppelin IV is claimed to be 2nd best selling...

OMG, didn´t know that celine´s top 2 albums sold THAT much, but i still think that the alleged 250 million albums sold (many fans claim that number) is totally overestimated!

Oops i did it again sold nearly 20 million albums

Actually I believe Mariah's Music Box is around 25 million and Ray of Light is at 15 million
