1. Tori Amos - Under the Pink (Space Dog and Pretty Good Year are always in heavy rotation here)
2. Jeff Buckley - Grace (soulful)
3. Annie Lennox - Diva (Why? Because she too is soulful)
4. Alanis Morisette - Jagged Little Pill (guilty)
5. Pretenders - Last of the Independents
6. Liz Phair - Exile in Guyville (RAw)
7. & 8. Sarah Mclachlan - Surfacing, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy
9. Tori Amos - From the Choirgirl Hotel (Is there a better Tori song than Northern Lad? No there isn't and it is amazing to see Tori's evolution from Little Earthquakes to UtP to Boys which was crazy and then to follow it up with an album featuring a full band)
10. Sheryl Crow - Sheryl Crow (Every song is enjoyable, and the "in your face" message to her Tuesday Night Music Club folks always makes this a tad rebellious.)
11. My imaginary Corrs Album (all their best)
12. Barenaked Ladies - Stunt (Light up my Room which I was fortunate enough to see live)
13. Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever (was this '89 or '90, if it was '89 then switch this out with Wildflowers)
14. 10,000 Maniacs - MTV Unplugged (Natalie at her best)
15. Jewel - Spirit (slammed by critics and fans I think this is the only Jewel album woth owning and what an album!)
