I love this record and am both surprised and delighted that it has gotten so far.

Because it's really good. It's one of my favorites from the decade. Love both these records but B&S edges out Radiohead for me.

This is disturbing actually. Between B&S and Interpol, I'm re-re-reevaluating the whole lot of you.

Kid A just can't lose to Belle & Sebastian. It's the Anti-Boys and Girls in America and now my album to pull for.

These bands depend on the album totally for me as some B&S records would stomp most Radiohead records. But, this B&S never really grew on me too much so I'm going Radiohead here.

Some people don't like Radiohead. Nearly as amazing as people not liking New Pornographers.

It's not as amazing as how much people like that Belle & Sebastian album.

Or are the majority of these just anti-Radiohead votes?

Like the B&S, but gotta go with Kid A.

I'm surprised the B&S actually made it this far.
