Do you remember those times when you or your parents had a stack full of vinyl records in the corner of your bedroom? Or all of those boxes full of cassettes with a tiny piece of tape with the title stuck on it, which you had to rewind with a pencil, unless you had a fancy cassette player? Or all those shelves in your mom\u2019s cupboard from the living room full of CDs?<\/p>\n

You used to receive a CD for each special occasion, including your birthdays and Christmas. Sometimes it did not even matter that you had no idea who the singer was or that you hated that band more than you hate your current boss, because your close ones wanted to do something nice and picked the latest album released\u2026 or perhaps the one under the huge \u201cBig Sale \u2013 97% off\u201d sign.<\/p>\n

But you were grateful for their gesture and listened to it. Possibly it grew on you and you listened to it while on the road in the mountains, when there was no signal on the radio. Yes, once the signal came back, you threw the CD out of the window, but at least you enjoyed your friends\u2019 gift for a couple of hours.<\/p>\n

Then you got to 2015 and you would believe that under no circumstances you will ever receive an album anymore. Sorry to burst your bubble, but\u2026<\/p>\n

Old Habits Never Die<\/h2>\n

Contrary to popular belief, yes people still buy albums. Whether they buy hard copies while enjoying a cup of tea at the local library or buy them online on their gadgets, people still buy albums. Why? It is simple, despite coming in many possibilities.<\/p>\n

They either listened to the best track on the album on YouTube or on the radio and feel in love with the sound or with the artist\u2019s voice and style, or they have been fans for a long period of time and when their favourite artists finally released the long awaited album, they had to pre-order it.<\/p>\n

Of course, albums still make nice adorable gifts. Also, Christmas is right behind the corner, so if you find yourself as the secret Santa of one of your colleagues with whom you have never even exchanged a word, you might consider checking the songs he is sharing on Facebook or the what artists he likes. Or you can buy him Adele\u2019s latest album<\/a>. It is a classic!<\/p>\n

Bibbity Bobbity Boo!<\/h2>\n

That might have worked with Cinderella, but not with real people and music. In order for an album to be a success, bring a lot of money, praise and awards, much more work and passion is needed. Creating a new album<\/a> can take from a couple of months up to many years, years which are defined mostly by pressure, writer\u2019s block, white nights and conflicts.<\/p>\n

Whether the public ends up loving the new music or not, it is a matter of luck. But all artists must always remember something: a good album needs to be outstanding and a new page in the history of music.<\/p>\n

Therefore, here are the best 10 albums of 2015.<\/p>\n
