Ditto. I can honestly say I don't recall an album being played so many times in the first week as that one. I can't stop playing it. The only album to come close in terms of constantly playing it would be (a err.. long time ago) David Bowie's Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust.

Yes, I do my own cover of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars....
