Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

Last year, 3 of the albums on my Pazz & Jop ballot placed in the top 40. This year, it's just one, albeit the #1. (As ever, my singles selections are somewhat more in tune with the general electorate.) Here's how my ballot stacks up in relation to the results:

*In my three years as a P&J voter, this is the first time that I've been the only voter for any given album.
**The original version of "Don't Cha" placed 48th (14); amazingly, one other voter specified this remix.
