Probably not...but I'going to pretend it does...

Allow me to introduce myself: the only critic among most critically aligned for three years running. Yep, you read that right: between Pazz & Jop '04 and '05 and Jackin' Pop '06, I have Threepeated in Glenn's Top 10.

(Yeah, I know I'm not supposed to be proud of this. Humor me, okay?)

I'm surprised I placed in the upper tier again, given that I didn't vote for Return to Cookie Mountain at all. But I guess the rest... did...um, kinda tow the party line a bit.

I prefer to think of myself as a good barometer of refined critical opinion. Or a complete tool. Take your pick.

Does everyone really love TVOTR that much, or are righties more inclined to oversell?
