[CupidBoy]

I must have bought at least 10 newly released albums this year, the only one I really loved completely though is The Abbey Road Sessions by Kylie Minogue.

Haven't been listening to it all that much because it makes me sad.

Edit: Also Lana Del Rey's Born To Die, but that makes me sad too.
