The Abyss : Monica's CD Collection

You can see a list of songs (perhaps even listen to some of them) and see how much an item costs (usually 4-40% off!) by clicking on the cover image or the item title. You can also find out more details on why you should buy books and music from The Abyss by reading our associate page.

NOTE: The CDs are in alphabetical order by artist (except when it makes more sense to order by type or album name). The graphics on this page (with the exception of the smiley and 'NEW!' images) are courtesy of Amber's Free Art.

Key for the symbols that I use:

My best friend Jeff has given me a large number of CD's and has expanded my musical experiences greatly. Therefore, all of his contributions are marked with love, honor and many thanks.

These are the CD's that make it into my player the most often.

There are a few CD's from my husband's collection that I confiscated and claim them as my own.

These are the newest additions to my collection.

	Ingénue by k.d. lang I love this woman's voice. I remember when I first saw her perform on The Tonight Show (or something like it) ... wow! Strange stage presence but still very good.
	The John Lennon Collection by John Lennon First heard this while seeing a boyfriend (now ex) and it grew on me.
	Throwing Copper by Live I keep considering getting more albums of theirs but I just never seem to get around to it.
	Divine Madness by Madness I remember the song Our House when I was younger and after hearing this album I kinda grew attached to their funky and silly songs.
	So Tonight That I Might See by Mazzy Star I wanted the song Fade Into You. This was another influence from an ex-boyfriend.
	Fumbling Towards Ecstasy by Sarah McLachlan I really like her haunting yet beautiful music.
	Tigerlily by Natalie Merchant I really dig this woman's vocal chords and lyrics.
	Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette I know, it's about time! When I first heard her I wasn't sure if I was gonna like her. Now, I know she rocks.
	Vauxhall and I by Morrissey Depressing but lovely music.
	Singles by Alison Moyet This is definately one of my favorite female voices. One I never tire of listening to.
	Natural Born Killers Soundtrack by Various Artists Never did actually see the movie, but it is a 'killer' soundtrack.
	Low Life by New Order Now, THIS is more like it! This album has the songs I remember listening to when I was in school.
	Substance by New Order I like them, but this wasn't quite what I had in mind when I bought it. I wanted the songs that I heard on the radio, not the overmixed and extended versions on this album. I should probably get rid of this one now that I have an album that I actually like better.
	I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got by Sinéad O'Connor Found this in the bargin bin for $3.99 and couldn't pass it up. I absolutely love Nothing compares 2U.
	Waiting For Herb by The Pogues Fun and funky band. Tuesday Morning is a special song for me and my best friend.
	The Singles by The Police Undeniably good. A very good collection of their best songs.
	Frosting on the Beater by The Posies When I play this album, it reminds me of the time I saw them play at The Bite of Seattle in 1994.
	The Singles by The Pretenders Another good 'best hits' album.
	All of This and Nothing by The Psychedelic Furs I had always wanted a Furs album!
	Pulp Fiction Soundtrack by Various Artists This was one of the few albums that my husband and I had duplicates of ... so it must be good! Damn great movie too.
