Great posts all around.

I have to say, I love Californication. Love it to pieces. But By The Way, in my subjective opinion is, not by far, the better of the two.

I really can't say anything else. Titan has already covered all the bases for the subjective opinion and the kinda skewed basis for the ratings, but it's all in opinion.

One thing that I must say is, I think that the Academy honored Californication because of the return of Frusciante and the attention that that garnered. It marked the return of the originals, and it was such a damn good album, that it marked the return of what people had been yearning for. I mean, what was the gap in between Blood, Sugar, Sex, and Magik and Californication? That's my reasoning behind that move by the Academy.
