Guess Who's Still Alive: Advent Edition

[Because it's not Christmas until Dec. 25th.]

The following artists have Top 20 albums on Amazon:
  • Susan Boyle (the top 2 spots, in fact. Maybe we're not an image-obsessed culture...)
  • Taylor Swift (never mind)
  • Josh Groban (continuing to labor under the delusion that the world needs someone to stand in for Bob Dylan)
  • Big Time Rush (no no no...we're supposed to have Boy Band nostalgia in about 8-9 years, not NOW)
  • Bruce Springsteen (because I know I want to pay 70 bucks to hear all the tracks that weren't good enough to make it onto Darkness on the Edge of Town)
  • Hannah Montana (if we put her in a room together with Taylor Swift, and they saw each other, would the rift in the Space-Time Continuum cause each other to freak out and faint for a year or so, like in the Back to the Future sequels? Cause that would be pretty rad)
  • Bob Dylan (see?)
  • Christina Aguilera and Cher (we comment on the one who's gained as much weight as the average college freshman, and not the one who bleeds botox. I hate the media)
  • Norah Jones (apparently she works with other artists! Who'da thunk it?)
  • Buddy Guy (Good for him. No snark)
