Is Holly Cole that babe who stomps around in Army Boots on one of Peter Gabriels concert dee-vee-dees?

Are we counting stuff that got bought and sold back, bought and destroyed, or both? ; P

1. Kid Rock: Devil Without A Cause
I still can't figure out why I ever purchased this. Guess I was in that "pseudo-rebellious teenage moron" stage.

2. Blackstreet: Another Level/some Boys2Men disc/Keith Sweat
Technically I didn't buy these. My mom gave them to me (honest!). Barely ever listened to them for obvious reasons. Lame faux-R&B shit.

3. Joan Osbourne: Relish
Lame female singer/songwriter. Bought it for that damn "If God Was One Of Us" song. Got suckered in big time. This got sold back.

I owned some other unlistenable stuff, most of it given to me from others. A "Wolfsongs" disc (oy!). A dance remix disc containing that goddamn "Macarena" thing (that was a bad, bad year). An album from Bonnie Raitt, which I gave to my mom 'cause she was the only one who listened to it. Some other albums of unimaginable crapitude that I can't remember right now.

A lot of it got destroyed in really imaginative ways circa 10th grade. This was when I listened to nu-metal for a little while, and enjoyed garbage like Korn and Limp Bizkit (the latter in tiny doses--they weren't very good even back then). So needless to say, I was big into breaking shit for laughs. The crap albums got disposed of via pellet rifle "plinking," bonfires, curb stomping, firecrackers, and the obligatory sledgehammer, among other things.

Some more recent purchases that I've sold back were Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica, The Blood Brothers' Burn Piano Island Burn, Sublime's self-titled, and Queensryche's Empire. They weren't awful enough to justify destruction, not even the Capt. Beefheart which I thought was obscenely bad music (at least it had imagination).
