PS- there was no better album in 1984 than Born in the USA. Ok, maybe Reckless, but no fuckin Dokken that's for sure.
PPS- Dave, IMO you shouldn't include Journey CD's in your polls..it is obvious they will always win. Look at the 1980 poll. NO WAY Departure is the best album of 1980.[/quote]
The top 5 selling albums of 1984 in the U.S. were
1 - Born In The USA - Springsteen
2 - Purple Rain - Prince
3 - Private Dancer - Tina Turner
4 - Like a Virgin - Madonna
5 - Heartbeat City - The Cars
