thats pretty poor...


i know its just in the U.S and Bon Jovi are just as popular or even more so elsewhere in the world.. but im surprised to see that Aerosmith have sold TWICE the amount of albums thats Jovi have... and that Def Leppard have sold more than BJ aswell!!

and wtf is george strait is at no.15?!

They've been around twice as long, producing twice as many albums.

Amen, sister. You have a believer.

George is known as King George.

If you say The King... well, no names are necessary.

And I'm not knocking George Strait. I came thisclose to buying his new CD today. His current single is his best song ever IMO.
