Albums I Want But Don't Have The Money For

These albums are on the top of my list to buy, once I find the cash of course. They are in no particular order. There are more, but I figured 10 was a reasonable number.
1Blue October
Foiled


A damn fine album and a damn fine band. I have never heard a bad song from these guys and I hope I never do.
2Blue October
Approaching Normal


I've only heard one song off this (Dirt Room) so I'm curious to see if Blue October have topped Foiled, equalled it, or flopped.
3Yann Tiersen
Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain


My sister introduced me to Yann Tiersena few years ago and ever since then I have searched fruitlessly through a frankly stupid amount of boxes trying to find her copy of this amazing album. I think its time to finally bite the bullet though and order another one in.
4Blink 182
Blink 182 Greatest Hits


I'm not a terribly huge fan of Blink 182, not because I don't want to be, but because I have simply never bothered to put together a proper collection of their music. I figure buying this would probably be the easiest way to remedy that.
5Regina Spektor
Far


One of the few pop musicians I like. Regina Spektor is, IMO, bloody brilliant, and since I can't decide which album to buy I've put this one down because apparently it has a little bit of all her styles in it.
6Devildriver
Pray For Villains


Devildriver at their best. I've heard a few songs from this and I am really excited to see what else this album holds.
7Powderfinger
Odyssey Number Five


I love Powderfinger, I think they are one of the greatest Australian rock acts of the past two decades (Its a narrow fight between them and Silverchair). That being said, I only own one of their albums, the ultimately dissapointing Dream Days At The Hotel Existence. I am looking to expand my collection and this album has been sitting, forgotten, at the back of my local music store. If I had the money I would give it a home instantly.
8 Jet
Shaka Rock


All right, I admit this isn't out yet (it comes out in late August if I remember correctly) but I still want it, and I know that when it comes out in a month's time what little money I have will not be enough to purchase this as well as everything else on this list. And there are higher priorities than this one.
9Rob Thomas
Cradlesong


One of the finest pop/rock singer/songwriters of our time. I am curious to see how well Rob pulls away from Matchbox 20.
10Matchbox Twenty
Yourself Or Someone Like You


Its a tie between this and More Than You Think You Are. Fantastic albums in their own way, but I just can't decide between them.
