Yes, me and Illidruit are huge Britney Spears fans. Her ambitious work progressing the female pop vocalist genre is impressive and quite inspiring. Just look at the dozens of other female vocalists she has inspired. It's a shame people on her board are always posting about other, crappier artists like the Simpsons and Shakira. It's a travesty to compare those wannabes to the artist that is Spears.

I'll post a list tomorrow.

For now, I'll just put one album: Yes - Close to the Edge
