nice to listen to a woman for a change not really my type of beat, but she sounds great tho

Don't vape guys

If I could give half stars, id give this 3.5. Very enjoyable, just too many songs that lasted too long that I didn’t care about

Dull dull dull

I get that it's culturally important, but it's not really my type of music. It was fine and good enough though.

It’s a Tuesday so the stars are aligning.

Another solid 90s album. Even the bland mainstream music was top quality.

Pretty good

Surprised to see this on the list. Quite like some of Sheryl Crow’s music, but this debut is too one dimensional for me to listen to. This hits are good, but as an album it drags on a bit. Follow up is much better for me. 2.5 rounded up to a 3

I really liked Sheryl Crow's voice on this album. Nice fun listen while doing some chores around the house. 3/5 stars.

don't get me wrong, it was good! just not entirely my cup of tea. I did learn, however, that Sheryl Crow has a song in the Cars soundtrack. Neat!

First track and All I Want To Do are great, the rest didn't quite live up to it

Yep. It's a Sheryl Crow album. Joyful early 90's.

Several classics, but didn't like the other songs as much. Can't believe this is over 30 years old...

Overall, it’s a decent album. There were some parts I didn’t really enjoy, but on the flip side, I think a lot of that comes from being burned out on 90s female adult contemporary music, mostly because it was completely shoved down our throats at the time. If I separate that bias, this is actually a pretty laid back album and a nice one to put on at the start of the day.

Ok at best.

Overall: 6/10 Sheryl is a great singles artist. I actually love more of her songs than I thought I did, and there's a few on this one that I didn't even realize were her songs. The non singles don't hit as hard for me, but there wasn't really anything on here that I would call bad. It's a fun pop rock album that you can have fun with if you don't take it too seriously. Fav Song: All I Wanna Do

I thought I would really hate this, but listening to it while walking around the park made me feel alive + human. Enjoyed the album until the final 2-3 songs, maybe a touch same-y overall. But I like Sheryl's voice! Run Baby Run, Leaving g Las Vegas and Solidify were my faves

I kind of enjoyed it, she's not an awful singer, most of the songs weren't very memorable. Wouldn't be likely to listen again

Nice voice, a little too poppy, but overall not bad

Very generic, I feel as if clubs would be better of playing EDM music on a Tuesday night, slightly larger audience yknow. All I wanna do is the only one I would ever consider listenting to again willingly.

Amerikansk pop-rock fra midterste hylde. Der er nogle få sange der står ud, men hold nu op hvor er de også start 90er agtige.

Prvi put da sam ovo poslušao od početka do kraja mislim. Meni je ovo dosta prosječno.

Comfortable, melodic and sneakily solid (3.5)

A mainstay on 90s pop radio, lots of catchy songs here that have a little more depth and feeling behind them than other lesser pop albums.

6.5/10 I was pretty much unaware of the artist besides knowing her name, so I didn’t have any expectations going in and there was definitely some solid songs on here but towards the second half of the album it gets a bit boring and a handful of songs here drag on a bit too long or repeat the chorus one too many times. Favorite song: solidify Least favorite: I shall believe

Pop rock that is a lot more pop than rock. The lyrics and vocals are very generic. The instrumentation isn’t bad, but it’s repetitive and doesn’t stand out much. It’s a fine album but literally didn’t make me feel anything.

Nice but not overachieving voice. Nice and laid back, but not mind-blowing. 3* Highlights: strong enough

I've always avoided Sheryl Crow, I guess because I lumped her in with the pop country scene in the early 2000s, which it turns out wasn't really a fair assessment. In fact, even though I think there's an Americana slant here, there's not a whole lot of capital C "Country" on Tuesday Night Music club. I'll just unhelpfully, but not dishonestly, call this "pop" for now, even though there is certainly more going on. Although, enough with labels, the most important thing here is that the songs on this album are really enjoyable and well-written. And I enjoyed her lyrics a lot too: I think she writes about hope and determination in a way that a lot of songwriters struggle to. Sheryl Crow doesn't come across as cloying or saccharine at all, and she has some real lyrical meat on these songs too, with very little "fluff". Although, I will say, the aesthetic here doesn't always hit for me. There are some songs here that do get a *little* too close to the modern country sound that I just can't really do. But, on the other end of things, the full arrangements here do give these songs the capacity to have some really cool flourishes. For example, anytime the bass playing asserts itself, the way it fits into the mix results in some really cool moments. But, as I mentioned earlier, the real key to this album's success is that these songs all have a really solid core. And I think the best song here is We Do What We Can. It has a really cool, uniquely moody tone that I didn't expect the album to bring so late in the runtime. It is also a deceptively sparse mix, the first half is mostly super cool bass playing, piano, some guitar and trombone flourishes, and a noir-ish drum machine. But at about the halfway mark of this song, the tempo suddenly hits double-time, trades the drum machine for a live kit, and expands the sound of the arrangement greatly. When I first listened to this song, I was kind of floored by this sudden drop. This is the second to last song of the album, and nothing else on the album features anything like this, so the sudden realization that Sheryl Crow has the vision to pull off songwriting tricks like this was really cool. Ultimately, I liked this quite a bit. There are plenty of great pop songs, and some cool tricks. And even though I don't always like the production direction here, it's not actively in my way of enjoying this (most of the time). Stuff like this is one of the reasons I started doing this challenge. Every once in a while it's good to be forced into a world that you maybe unfairly dismissed.

decent. but not decent enough. 3.5/5

It was alright, I did have some fun, but not too much fun

A liberating and often heartfelt album. That is always nice to listen to but never great (other than all I wanna do and possibly run baby run and leaving last Vegas )

not a bad album but not sure how it made the list.

Singer- songwriting that can be described as perfectly fine. 6/10

I was digging some of this, but most of it is just sort of... there. It's not annoying, or bad, but it just doesn't really have a lot to offer me.

Not bad. Very 90’s

Nice pop album, but nothing too crazy about it. I'd put it on if I wanted just some background music playing for easy listening. Standout tracks are - obviously - the hit All I Wanna Do, as well as the song Strong Enough. 7 / 10.

The click bait:  ITS LIKE JEKYLL AND HYDE CAME TO SPANK ME!!! Here's what we have Typical Crow - "Run Baby Run", "Leaving Las Vagas", "All I Wanna Do" Then some low rent ones (extremely repetitive and deviate from what is already a middle of the road album) - "Solidify" a weird semi dance / pop track which was at odds with the rest of the album. Going off typical wasn't always bad and most are repetitive but I actually likes some of them like "No one said it would be easy" as an example as that had a bit of feeling and mood to it. I am not struggling to listen to this as such, but I do struggle to form an opinion as I just don't think it's that good as an average.  There is the odd track that seems to suit me and there are times where the tempo drops in a cool way and there is an interesting piano interlude near the end for example.  Otherwise, despite expecting better I have to say it struggled to maintain a notable mention for me.  Started OK, dire middle and just when it got OK, it ended.  Oh and then another bloody CD followed! It's like Jekyll and Hyde has come to spank me.  I loved the first track of the next album.  So, I went all in yet again.  The very next track was sub average loop the loop pop. I cant in good concious slam this.  This is a person that has great tallent as actually it was a very artistically diverse album.  It was interesting at times and it made me go mental with this review so there is that.  When she gets off the carosel there are lots of examples of lyrical strength.

My internal prejudice led me to expect this album to be awful. Actually, I was pleasantly surprised. The songs are generally well written and convincingly performed. Production quality is solid. There seems to be something very nineties about this type of singer/songwriter, soft-rock album. It's very radio-friendly and something you can imagine your mum jamming out to in the family car. Ultimately, there is something timelessly appealing about a nice singer singing some nice songs. Not ground-breaking but solid.

Its nice. I especially liked What I Can Do For You. Its boring but its good.

good start, bit downhill after that xx would listen to all i want to do again. actually spoke too soon, last two songs are so much better

A little mellow for my tastes but there's some good hooks here (and standout singles). Top tracks: "All I Wanna Do," "Leaving Las Vegas," "Run, Baby, Run"

Why is this album so long? It's good but damn.

--Run, Baby, Run...seems a little like-gulp-easy listening --Leaving Las Vegas...I feel like I'm shopping for turquoise jewelry in Flagstaff --Strong Enough... more easy listening but this is stronger (heh) songwriting than preceding tracks. surprise! it's only three minutes long. take note, singer-songwriters --Can't Cry Anymore...sure --Solidify...okay we're bringing the funk now. this is fun. I'm having fun --The Na-Na Song...this is weird. don't love it but I appreciate weird --No One Said It Would Be Easy...too long, Sheryl --What I Can Do For You...not bad but nothing special --All I Wanna Do...I do remember when this song first exploded. I thought it was a refreshing change of pace from the other radio hits I had heard to that point. To be fair, I was eight --We Do What We Can...more of a jazz lounge singer number. I like it. smooth and sexy. not too cheesy. maybe too long --I Shall Believe...I think I would rate this album higher if the fun weirdness of the middle tracks weren't bookended by uninspired and overlong adult contemporary

My girl forever but a couple duds

I just don't like a lot of 90s music, but this was better than most I guess.

I’m not sure if this is better or worse than The Black Album

Some good songs on here, it didn't elevate to a 4 though.

All I Wanna Do bumps up this otherwise unentertaining album by 1 whole star.

I've always liked Sheryl Crow. Fun fact: she created one of my favourite Bond themes in the often forgotten Tomorrow Never Dies. The movie deserves to be forgotten, not the song. It's no secret that I'm not a fan of country music, but this falls more into something you might call "Americana". There's a folky, bluesy feel to everything. I'm particularly fond of those sharp 7th notes that she throws into her music. Overall, I enjoyed everything I heard on this album. "Run, Baby, Run" hurts my head with vocals that seem to be running asynchronously to the melody (has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me??), but it's catchy as hell. There's a great run from the opening track through "Leaving Las Vegas", one of the most 90s sounding songs of the 90s, "Strong Enough", with its laid-back folky atmosphere, "Can't Cry Anymore", defying you to not get it stuck in your head, "Solidify" sneaking in a bit of funk, before the nutty "The Na-Na Song" channelling Subterranean Homesick Blues Dylan vocal stylings. The front-runner is obvious though. "All I Wanna Do" was everywhere when it first came out, and deservedly so. Perfect melody, instrumentation, and lyrics. Songs like this only come along every so often, and when they do they usually become victims of being overplayed to bajaysus. But for some reason, this is one of the few songs that doesn't end up getting on your nerves after the millionth listen. It also wins the prestigious award for being a song with prominent pedal steel guitar that somehow doesn't get on my nerves. For how enjoyable the music is here, I do still find myself questioning why it won so many Grammys, or why it's held in such high regard. These are really solid songs, very easy to listen to, consistently good, but nothing here feels particularly bold or innovative. I enjoyed listening to this, and I'd happily return to it. Not ground-breaking, but very easy to like.

Lower marks from me because the non-singles are barely listenable.

Didn’t realize, “All I Wanna Do” was almost entirely lifted from a poem. Still rating this as a 3 bc I like her voice and (other) lyrics. Generally, she kicks ass.

It's fine? Sheryl Crow is too, this is a little sedate for my taste but it's good beach/road trip music I guess. All I Wanna do remains a bop.

A few flashes of brilliance, and if the goal was getting plenty of radio play then it totally succeeded at that. But when it isn't hitting its highs, it's just ho-hum run of the mill music.

I'm struck by how much of a stylistic hodgepodge this is. Not at all uncommon with debut albums where the artist is still finding their footing, but it doesn't make it any less jarring. There are some interesting ideas, even if it doesn't all work for me. Run, Baby, Run was a surprising bit of blues-based rock a la Bonnie Raitt. Solidify is a surprising bit of funk with some cool drumming. The drummer is seriously going off on this one. The Na-Na Song is her version of We Didn't Start the Fire. We Do What We Can is a ballad with a trip-hop feel to it before it opens up to a dramatic, piano-driven bridge. The trouble is the rest is mostly easy listening singer-songwriter pop. I find that mode to be a bit boring although All I Wanna Do is catchy as hell.

I don't have much to say about it. Singing is good, but music is samey. Tolerable

Liked it. Good album. Not a masterpiece by any stretch. But good.

i like it. not a 5 star. not a classic. but a good singer / songwriter pop album. i enjoyed it sufficiently. some of her better songs are on here

Not my cup of tea but some good songs.

12/17/25: sort of just feeling like bland 90s upbeat pop rock. I don't hate it but I don't know that I would choose to listen to it either. 5/10.

Good voice, but not very interesting

I still love All I Wanna Do, but I'm pretty over the rest of the album, it no longer lures me the same way it once did.

Classic Sheryl. Not really my kind of music. I do like We Do What We Can. 3

Tog för lång tid innan jag insåg att Sheryl Crow inte är Shania Twain. Den sistnämnda har man ju också sett i Globen när jag var typ 8. Classic sexual awakening. Skivan börjar rätt bra med bla Run Baby Run. Sen blir det rätt bjäring ett tag och så plötsligt kommer den där jazziga balladen? Riktigt fet. På det stora hela - okej pop.

Riktigt bra frisörmusik!

I was expecting a bit more from this album having only heard All I Wanna Do previously. Unfortunately I was left a little disappointed, I was hoping for a 90’s Joni Mitchell but what I got was a bit bland really.

just wasn’t for me i fear

144 Piola, para ser country me gustó harto. All I wanna do, is have some fun~

Tää levy löytyy omasta hyllystä. Tuli kuunneltua tätä 90-luvun puolessa välissä, mutta sen jälkeen ei oo pyörinyt soittimessa...

country feeling pure

i guess it was okay

good voice good sound, just not my jam

Some good songs I had never heard before but some filler or styles of song that grated. Good variation for solo artist.

Man the 90's were a wild time for music. Honestly, for my money, the best decade in music. That's not necessarily in relation to this album, its merely fine for me, but this album does exemplify a lot of why the 90s were so great. 90's were a time where pretty much anything could get radio play (in no other decade would Beck's Loser or The Butthole Surfer's Pepper ever be allowed to get airplay) and a lot of it was fantastic. This album is very 90's in sound while also kinda vibing with that "anything goes" mindset. Damn thing even has a jazz cut in We Do What We Can. Effortlessly smooth as well. But yeah, it's generally just fine for me. All I Wanna Do is a fantastic song. We Do What We Can is great too. But the rest don't do much for me.

It was fine. Nothing life changing. I'm never gonna seek it out on my own, but I wouldn't demand that somebody play something else if it came on. Adequate music to clean the garage to

3 only because of how good All I Wanna Do and String Enough are.

The singles from this album sell Sheryl as a country-adjacent singer songwriter, which is broadly accurate, but doesn't tell the whole story. Sure, there’s plenty of twang here, but it's all from the guitars and not the vocals. Where Shania Twain's story will be "Country goes Pop", this album makes Sheryl's feel kinda like "Pop goes Country". I'm sure I'm missing plenty of context for the state of pop radio in 1993, but this sounds like it might be an important milestone for country/rock crossovers. Would Shania’s crossover been as successful without this? What about Faith Hill or Taylor Swift? I won’t commit to giving Sheryl too much credit, but it feels kinda true. Half of this album ended up as singles, so you've probably heard a good portion of this record already. Those singles are enough to keep you busy, but if you're interested in going deeper, I have two recs: "Solidify" - this is pretty funky and I love the organ. It totally doesn't fit the rest of the album, but that's what makes it so fun. "The Na-Na Song" - also a departure from the rest of the album. It borrows from Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start The Fire" in the same way that Beck's "Loser" (also 1993!) does. Loser is probably the better song, but I enjoyed this too. The singles (in release order): "Run Baby Run" - this didn't hit in 1993, but feels like a Sheryl Classic now. "What I Can Do for You" - you probably don't know this song because it was released before Sheryl started to break through, but it should have been a bigger hit. "Leaving Las Vegas" "All I Wanna Do" "Strong Enough" "Can't Cry Anymore" - It's clear that they were courting country radio with this one. But, hot take: if they held "What I Can Do For You" until after Sheryl started breaking through, it could have been released here and this song wouldn't have been a single.

This album gave me a lot of nostalgia. A very high 3 but just a few too many songs I wasn't too big a fan of.

Decent album with decent variety, some hits, some misses. Don't need to say anything about absolute MegaHit All I Wanna Do, but I am pleased that the whole album doesn't sound like it. That said, some of hte misses - eh. She's a good singer so why is she putting out songs where her voice is straining a little? She has so much other stuff to go on. Additionally, to my taste, some of these songs are just filler. The Na-Na song was the first time I checked what I was listening to because it took me out of the rest of it. Leaving Las Vegas, too - kind of an also ran. But hey, decent album means they're not all bangers. Good example (blueprint?) of that 90s girl rock lilith-ish sound.

Easy sound overall. I can listen to All I want to do like once a month and any more it just bugs me.

She's talented but not a fan

6 singles! Holy moly. Shot Shezza

This is an 'almost' album. It almost escapes being background music, it is almost enjoyable enough for me to want to re-visit, it is almost worth 3/5. One of the 1001 best albums... nah.

Not a fan but there were Beatles references so 3 stars

This was pretty fun, but did not wow me

I liked the songs more that veered into full on rock territory (e.g.: The Na-Na song) than the ones that were pop rock. Still, I have to give props to the songwriting and all the vivid details in there, but other than that it's not a musically interesting album.

Like the stripped down production, but doesn't really do anything to me.

This was my first full album experience with Ms. Crow, and for as many years as I've know of her and her hits, I'm very surprised by how much I did not care for this album. I like her voice, and the music is generally a skillful, interesting, bluesey-pop blend, but something about this doesn't pull together for me—the pacing, the lyrics, the general feel, something... 2.5 is the best I can do, so it rounds up to a three.

Middle section suuuuucks but there are some all-timers here. Why is All I Wanna Do not the first track??? 3.5

05/11/2025 It wasn't too bad of an album. Spotify listeners: 7.2 million

A 90s time capsule, in a good and bad way. Didn't evoke any strong feelings in me and a feel very little connection to the country/rock crossover...All I Wanna Do is a great bop nonetheless.

Her lilting, sliding vocals grated on me a bit, and I only enjoyed them in a couple songs. She has a unique sound, but I only really enjoyed it in a couple songs, particularly "Leaving Las Vegas."

All kinds of songs, fun one and well-produced. I don't think she is a very good singer, but good overall.

Honestly enjoyed this album a lot. It’s fun, poppy, and easy to jam along to. Decent listen in my book, and would gladly welcome another album from her

I think I came into this album with my expectations set a little too high. I was expecting a little more with such a well known artist (at least to me). "All I Wanna Do" is a classic, and there were a few others that I did enjoy. Overall I liked it, but her voice isn't as good as I was expecting and the lyrics did nothing for me.

har kunnet lide sheryl crow lige siden jeg har set cars. Hun har sgu attitude og det lyder godt. Det er proto-americana, roots rock, pop rock, folk rock. Det tager inspiration i den tidligere form af rock selvom det blev udgivet i mtv tiden hvor grunge osv var allerstørst. Rimelig sejt gennembrudsalbum og hun har åbenbart været backup sanger for michael jackson. Synes der er nogle gode numre på og vil gerne lytte til det igen, men synes ikke det er min lyd eller noget bemærkelsesværdigt.

Enjoyable - almost a 4.

Middle of the road. Ok

3/5, not my type of music but can appreciate really good vocals and guitar

5.5/10 Decent, but not particularly inspiring Highlights: What I Can Do for You Leaving Las Vegas Solidify

3.3 2x decent enough but i remember this being so over played in the 90s

3.5 Struggled with the rating, felt maybe a four but other than the radio hits I've heard hundreds of times I didn't like much else on this album. I think I decided Strong Enough is my favorite song on the album (which is odd as I didn't love it on radio play.) Finally settle on my rating system that this is a very good album but not one I would necessarily want to invest time listening to again, though I wouldn't at all if someone else had it on in the background. May still come back and upgrade to a 4

Huge on release, pales over time.

Surprisingly good. I'd always assumed all of Sheryl Crow's work was more country-leaning I guess. Quite a few good pop/moody tracks.

Är det tillräckligt bra för en fyra. På gränsen igen. Det är rätt bra bitvis men inte på ett wow-sätt. Det är nog i slutändan habilt. Känner inget behov av att lyssna mer. Vilket för mig blir strax under fyran!

This album hit gen x women like an atomic bomb

I was expecting a commercial, middle of the road, album, but found something a little grittier - more Lucinda Williams vibe. So a pleasant surprise, which I quite enjoyed - Leaving Las Vegas probably my favourite track

I liked this more than I expected to

is it country or is it dance music? we may never know. Her voice is slightly punchy in a bad way. the songs have redeeming qualities. pleasant listen!

Why do I feel like I've heard every song on this album? I've never listened to Sheryl Crow in my life. Is she just that prevalent that I recognize her voice immediately?

It’s whatever.

some great music, but the album itself doesn’t feel coherent

Knowing the two massive radio hits primed me with low expectations. But then, suddenly, I didn’t mind it much at all!

Better than Alanis

It's fine. Really. Fine

Not bad, not great.

Pretty good, has some hits you know. But a pretty easy listen.

6/10 - some good 90s country pop

I’ll I wonna do is the only recognizable song for me. And the only thing saving the rating from being a 2

Enjoyable album, the singles hit hard. The rest of the songs, not that much.

Not bad! 3/5

I like "Run Baby Run", but hate "The No-No Song", the rest is ok. 3.5 stars

*Tuesday Night Music Club* was one of those ubiquitous 90s pop/rock albums, in the same vein as Alanis Morrisette's *Jagged Little Pill *or Hootie and the Blowfish's *Cracked Rear View*. Even if you didn't own it, you probably heard the whole thing due to the record companies milking everything they could from the album. I think this starts off really good -- "Run Baby Run", "Leaving Las Vegas", "Strong Enough", and "Can't Cry Anymore" is a solid run of tracks. From there, it gets a little dicey and there's much filler from there on out. "All I Wanna Do" is pretty fun, but not a song I need to hear again, and "I Shall Believe" is a decent closer, but the rest is pretty forgettable. I do think Sheryl improves with her next couple albums. Light 3.5.

I would prefer to put this on over the Black Crowes but only marginally. All I Wanna Do is a good track that I wouldn’t mind if it was on Co Op radio but everything else is a bit dated and cheesy. I would definitely request something else to be played at an actual Tuesday Night Music Club if I was going. Something like Ace Of Base or Barenaked Ladies.

3- Stars (7/15)

Favourite song - Leaving Las Vegas

Some simple, folksy pop music. 3.5/5

She only had 1 hit in my country, so I always thought of her as a one hit wonder. Turns out she has more than one good song. Good variety of influences. I read other reviews that said this album was formulaic. They either didn't listen to the entire album or don't know what they're talking about. The songs are quite different, but they sound like they belong together. That being said, I don't think I'll play this very often. Favorite song: all I wanna do

3 great songs and the rest are forgettable. Not bad for a debut album.

Never listened to a Sheryl much but I enjoyed this

Enjoyable easy listening country pop.

ну пойдет

Я не любитель американских фолк песен, но альбом все равно довольно приятный

Way better than I thought

Not awful but just sorta there…

Pretty decent. A couple of famous songs on it. Not exactly pop but on that spectrum. Probably between a three and a four for me.

I am overwhelmed by the nostalgic smell of a Case Logic CD binder. The first half is surprisingly nice, the second bland corporate pap leavened by The Hit. Better than it deserves to be.

I’ve never been a fan of Sheryl Crow so while I wasn’t expecting to particularly like this, it’s fine. I won’t listen to it again, but it was fine.

Firstly a small rant about deluxe editions: if your record label wants to make a deluxe edition to generously give the fans more music/fleece the fans for more money (delete based on your level of cynicism) that's great. But do not delete the original from streaming services and force me to have to check where I'm supposed to stop listening to properly assess an album for this project. It keeps on happening! Tut! For an album that spawned six singles, I genuinely would have only been able to name All I Wanna Do, such was its ubiquity in the early 90s charts. But listening to this, I remember a lot of it. I remember Run Baby Run which would probably make the record company happy as they released it 3 times in the UK in the hope of making it work - genuinely a bonkers choice for first single given some of the other songs on this record. For example, Leaving Las Vegas which is a much better option for first single. Reading about Leaving Las Vegas made me nostalgic for the era when singles a) got physical releases and b) got multiple versions in multiple formats, each of which would have different b-sides so you ended up collecting the lot. LLV had a 7", cassette and two different CDs in the UK! See people complain about record companies now but you only get 15 different vinyl colours for an album because they can no longer flog you four versions of the same single. This feels like damning with faint praise, but this was mostly a very pleasant album to listen to. I'm not sure how I feel about Solidify which is extremely early 90s (the instrumentation could easily have had Micheal Jackson singing over the top), and the second half generally doesn't feel as strong as the first half but I did enjoy it. All I Wanna Do remains the absolute stand out track though. 3/5

I didn't expect to like this but I did. Generally. I don't know if I would give it a 4, but 3.5 for sure.

# Playlist Track - All I Wanna Do # Notes - A few interesting tracks, but an intolerable amount of over-singing. Most of the listen feels a bit forced and over exerted. - Not coincidentally, my favourite track is of the light, careless, chill ones. - Not horrible, tho. OK pop, that could just take it a bit easier on the mics.

The hits are the only highlight here. 3/5

Some light country-tinged pop rock. The songs are not bad, but they are rather boring. I wanted a cool metal album to be my birthday album, but I got this grocery store pop album instead.

Her first record, thought it was pretty strong. A couple of the poppier moments aren’t great imo but decent songwriting throughout. the back half is also strong, held up by the single (all I wanna do) which is still great.

Country pop/rock/ crossover album from the mid 90s. Not really my cup of tea overall but it isn't a bad album, just a bit too generic for my taste - but it was a pleasant enough listen overall. The big hit of the album is quite fun. Rounded up to 3 stars.

Pretty good but not my cup o tea

the singles are very good. the rest is sunshiny, low stakes, kinda bops along. it's well produced. "no one said it would be easy" is good. the jazzy song is bad. bonnie raitt lite. lucinda without the miles on the wheels or the gravel in the voice. if this was playing while i was in a bar on santa monica boulevard some summer tuesday afternoon, i'd be cool with it.

The nanana song is surprisingly fun. This album has some great highlights but overall it took me a couple tries to complete. She has her audience and I’m just a visitor.

ON A SATURDAY NIGHT

All I wanna do - is have some fun - I got a feeling - I'm not the only one

One hit song on this album. I thought there'd be more.

The back story to this is so interesting. Enjoys a meteoric rise to fame, despite her conviction for racially aggravated assault of a toilet attendant in a Guildford nightclub She marries a gifted sports star amid tabloid insinuations that the relationship is a sham to hide her partner's closeted homosexuality. After the demise of that ill-fated relationship she appears to briefly find happiness with a man 10 years her junior and who she had once mentored on a TV talent show but he later dies in a tragic accident falling from a hotel balcony while on tour in South America, leaving her to raise their son. Oops, sorry wrong Sheryl/Cheryl. Anyway all that aside, the story of how the original Sheryl kind of screwed over the co-writers of many of these tunes is kind of wild too.

Had this on CD back in 94. Haven’t listened to it since then and had forgotten about a few good tracks. Hadn’t aged too badly. Run baby run, strong enough, can’t cry anymore.

Not my thing, very much of a time

I thought it was quite alright. Nothing too special however. Good slow jams but mostly a standard 90’s, singer-songwriter record. I do think that there’s a good influence of Sheryl’s vocals in today’s music. Namely, the subdued style she took. However, I wouldn’t say I remember too much from the experience. Best thing I can say is that it’s inoffensive.

Some real classics on here, but other than those, the rest of it was just okay to me. My husband loved it, though.

A quintessentially sounding 90's female singer-songwriter, pop/rock album. Sheryl Crow has her fair share of hits, those of which I do enjoy greatly, but this record was somewhat formulaic outside of the singles. It's a fine debut, all things considered, it doesn't suffer from overproduction and is pretty stripped back for the most part. "All I Wanna Do" may stand on its own as a single, but "Run Baby Run" and "Strong Enough" were other highlights.

Have some fun

the history of an album should not impact the music on an album, but in this case I cannot. The fact that she named the album "Tuesday Night Music Club", who is the band that brought her in and wrote the music and songs with her, who she then turned her back on and didn't even use as the musicians when she recorded the album is enough to sour my appreciation of this album. Onto the review of the actual album. its pretty generic pop country, with cheesy lyrics "are you strong enough to be my man, are you man enough to be my man" i mean come on! all that said, its not terrible, but nothing that made me go "wow, this is amazing" i cannot understand why this has so many record sales. I guess people need this sort of thing in their lives. No one said it would be easy is the standout song mostly because it is the most aligned to traditional country. The album was okay. standard 3 stars

408/1001 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑

Some nice stuff but too many misses

I didn’t know Sheryl was a woke queen but the presentation didn’t do much for me.

If this whole album was like Strong Enough, it would be a straight 5 stars for me. However, there are too many Na-Na Songs that fill the gaps between songs like Leaving Las Vegas and All I Wanna Do. I enjoyed my time with this album, I like Sheryl Crow, and I LOVE Strong Enough. For me though, this album isn't more than 3 stars and I question its placement on an essentials list

A good fun album from a legend of music. I see some of the special traits in this album, but it's hard to be excited about every song in the debut.

This is a very "fine" album. Nothing impressed me overmuch, but it was enjoyable. Favorite track: "The Na-Na Song," since it stood out as interesting compared to the rest of the album.

I enjoyed this but not as much as its follow-up

if i was born like 5 years earlier i bet i would have been obsessed with this

Ibi wibould

She’s definitely very distinctive in her lyrical delivery, which in places really reminded my of minor 90s psyche pop act Jellyfish (bonus points for remembering them). Anyway, it’s hard to deny the big hit is a great song, I also really liked the Na-Na song. The remainder though is perfectly listenable but a bit bland. Feeling generous today, so 3* it is.

A 90's singer-songwriter album with a rootsy edge. I like this. It's fun, it has good songwriting and performances. It's like listening to a very nice local band at a cozy bar (on a Tuesday night, I guess). Key tracks: Run, Baby, Run Strong Enough All I Wanna Do

yeah this is great actually

A whole lot of nothing. Why is she so famous? It was fine, I guess, nothing offensively bad, but I don’t hear anything that would suggest it’s genre-defining, or worthy of inclusion on any Best Of list. All I Wanna Do is pretty catchy, but is one catchy pop song enough to warrant a spot on this list? I submit that it’s not.

Первая половина, да и альбом в целом, были сильно лучше того, что можно ожидать от поп-рока из девяностых с такой вот обложкой. Лучшая песня - Leaving Las Vegas.

nice enough

It was good, but a bit boring.

kind of mystified that this sheryl album is on this list. not my favorite of hers musically, lyrically, or thematically but i will always have a soft spot for her voice. toooooo many ballads, though

Not as bad as I feared. The first and third track are actually quite well written pop songs with good choruses. I also liked the smooth, jazzy We Do What We Can. I’ve always hated All I Wanna Do, though. And The Na-Na Song was even worse. Horrible song! All in all a 5/10

I don't think it's Sheryl Crow's fault that when listening to this album for this project I had to hear the song "All I Wanna Do" twice: once in my car on the way to the grocery store and once over the loudspeaker in the grocery store while I was shopping. But I do think it is her fault that she made a song so inoffensive that grocery stores play it.

Pretty. Nice. Not mindblowing or anything.

All I Wanna Do seems pretty bland to me, and surprising to see it's her most popular song when I don't think it's even her best song on this album. A testament to the need to listen for yourself.

Some pleasant songs

Great suggestion from 1001 Albums Generator! I should have listened most of the songs of this album in a separated way never paying attention to the album itself. And it is a really good one, fresh, vivid, eclectic, plenty of nice songs opening the 90's.

I don’t have the exact description beyond 90s sound but I always love hearing. This was good overall.

My aunt passed away several years ago but tonight I was driving in a car with her. The car had no headlights so it was very dark outside. She was trying to find a spot to smoke a joint. I don't smoke so I was a bit annoyed with a little anxiety and a lot of fear of dying in this see of blackness. She pulls into a state park parking lot and there are a whole lot of police and they, no matter how hard she pretended her car had no lights, stopped her. They could smell the smoke and pulled her out. I guess I was trying to hide in the back seat I was both afraid and annoyed. They questioned me and let me go but I had to walk home. I noticed that there were mall doors in the woods and lots of people coming in and out so I figured it was a safe way to get to my sister's house. I go in and it's a vast cave that's part forest part building. I'm immediately lost. I find one door and it's full kids in their late teens to late twenties. They're dressed like all types of people that were in their 20s during the late 2000s to 2010s. Hipsters, people that looked like, I'm not sure what one would call them but their style was heavily influenced by the way kids looked at grateful dead shows in the early mid 90s but they weren't. I would go through another door and it was a cave of more of them and some try to engage but I walk past, I just want to get home. I open several doors like that until I get to a hospital lobby. There's a few actual nurses and attendees standing around. I can still see from the walls it's still a cave. This time there is an exit but it's the wrong one so I go through another door and it's part cave part forest part food court but everyone looks like the people from the other area. Some I knew, I think. You know one of those part people you know that are also people you've never seen. I go through another door and it's a triage with people in sleeping bags. Another door and it's full of nurses dressed like they do in older movies. All white with hats. One looked familiar and I leaned in to getva closer look and it is my ex-wife. I see that she sees me but I try to walk by as though I don't see her. She starts to walk alongside me and says "Don't say anything to me here" and I tell her I wasn't and go through another door that's still not the way out. More doors that lead to part cave part forest part general buildings. Finally I go through one and it's a mall. I walk through the sea of people and they get fewer and fewer as I go when I spot 3 people I knew. Aaron, David and Christian. Friends of mine from the 90s. They were the only people that looked grown up. At first I was hesitant to walk up. They were with this pretty girl I'd never seen before but that kinda gells with them. David had this annoyed look on his face though I think it's the face he makes when he's nervous. Aaron was invested in the girl but they were definitely enjoying being together. I walked up to them and told them I couldn't find a way out. They said they were going to eat and I could come. I somehow knew I had $61 so I said sure. Christian looked really happy and asked me how the Dictator was going. I thought he was talking about the Charlie Chaplin movie but then he chimes in " the dictator, your book? How's it going?" I was never writing a book called the dictator and Christian was always getting these things wrong but he always seemed genuinely interested in my writing. I told him I don't write anymore. I was still hesitant to go with them because I would be this fourth guy with this girl but I was just wanting to get out of this cave forest building, I had zero interest in the girl. We get into a car, part Toyota part Limo and I had this feeling we were going to Subway. They were all laughing then stopped laughing very quickly. Aaron was older and he had a combover. David looked exactly the same and Christian not much different but still aged. Greasy shoulder length hair combed back. I was happy to see them and didn't feel out of place. Everything moved in slow motion. Sometimes there faces were close to mine sometimes I could see them from the distance. The vibe was that I was welcomed and out of the cave.

Better than I expected

Meh. Average white girl 90s music. Pretty boring. I have always liked Strong Enough though.

J’ai trouvé que plusieurs pièces s’étiraient et se répétaient, aurait bénéficié de versions resserrées

This just pretty basic white lady rock lol it was ok just not my type of music

A bit too slick and shiny to really excite me. Her second album is much better.

So I was a bit underwhelmed. Not sure if my expectations were too high or the album was not that great. Either way I’m giving it a 3.

This was a truly forgettable album. 2.5 stars

I'm glad this album was less like "All I Want to Do" and more like "Strong Enough To Be My Man." I don't love her voice but the music is nice.

Pretty generic singing for the most part. I felt like it was an early 2000s album instead of early 90s so I guess she was ahead of her time? I enjoyed a few of the backing instruments on a handful of songs. Not quite my type of music but it’s fine for what it is. 6/10

Has the iconic Strong Enough and All I Wanna Do. Overall very mellow. A few songs where her voice was really grating.

I’m torn, there are a lot of fantastic tracks sans vocals but I just can’t get into her voice for the most of it, the yeller ones. It has a stronger back end

Pop album which doesn't hurt anyone. Classical 5/10.

A woman! Might this be the first and only woman on this testosterone driven play-list? Nice background music. "All I want to do" is a total bop.

Some decent songs and some filler. She has a generally nice voice.

Some bangers, some sleepers. 3/5

I thought Sheryl Crow was a country singer.

Released during the 1990s when there were so many amazing female singer-songwriters, Crow always felt on the weaker side to me. Revisiting this album 30 years later (uh, where does time go?), I still feel the same. Her voice is average, even kind of bad at times, and the songs are fairly forgettable. I will take Tori Amos or Paula Cole any day (or The Chicks if we are leaning country). Overall, an average albeit forgettable album.

She is not a bad songwriter but she is not a great one either. My brother recently compared her to Huey Lewis and that seems apt, he music on this album seems ready made for generic heartfelt moments on tv dramas

Solid!

5/5/25. Very solid pop rock here. When the production is done right, the songs can really shine, and Sheryl Crow does that here. Really enjoyed the second half of the album.

3 sterne

Was excited after the opener, but it fell off quick for me.

Some good songs

This is a bit of a mixed bag. Some absolute crackers but also a few weaker efforts. I feel like Sheryl doesn’t have a strong identity as a performer. Some of her numbers came on in the playlist after the album and they were surprisingly good. A greatest hits package is the way to go with her. The 5 star rating system strikes again - 3.5 rounding down because it definitely isn’t worth a 4

The three country ballads ("Strong Enough", "No One Said it Would Be Easy", "I Shall Believe") are downright terrible. They offer exactly nothing interesting at all, and consist entirely of interminable whining and boring country music. However, the rest of the album shows a lot of variety and is actually pretty good. 2.5/5.0: Mixed

i've always thought of sheryl as pop country so i was surprised to hear some of these songs that leaned more pop rock. theres a few good really good tracks, a few really bad ones, and the rest fall somewhere in between.

Started off strong, had a couple of iffy songs in the middle, All I Wanna Do brought it back and then it had a disappointing ending (which is pretty common). If the middle or ending hadn't tapered off I would've called this 4*, but it's a high 3.

A two star album with a 4 star song. Mostly forgettable without "all I want to do"

closer to 4 probably could i write poetry to this? n

Music for people who found Counting Crows to be too "edgy" and Wallflowers to be "not edgy enough."

Never mad about hearing a Sheryl Crow song, but also never seek one out.

My mom owned this album growing up. A lot of good songs and some of her best hits. Sheryl Crow definitely captured the vibes of the early 90s well. Overall- good album

ganz nett, kann man sich immer mal wieder anhören

I was once sat in the pub with my friends and we were talking about our “type” in women. I stated I didn’t really have a type but then all of my friends pointed out that my last 3 girlfriends all looked exactly like Sheryl Crow! Anyway, music is ok her voice is great but overall a bit bland

Pretty good, but not a 4

> the Beatles

This was an enjoyable revisit. Overall the album is fun, Sheryl shows off that she can cover several genres relatively well. However, nothing in its entire 50 minutes runtime launches it out into the stratosphere as anything more than just "pretty good." In fact, if I'm being nitpicky, a couple of tracks felt shoved into the album that sorta killed the vibe, including "The Na Na Song." Solid 3.5/5.

The opening track was the highlight for me, but I think this stays at a 3 for me. Decent to listen to but nothing amazing.

I thought there would be better songs on here. There's the All I want to do song but other than that it's meh. 3 stars.

Better album than I was expecting. Doesn't need to be on this list by any means but it's totally fine.

it's not even tuesday :/

I’ve listened to this album before and didn’t like it except for one or two songs. But I actually really enjoyed it over all this time. It’s interesting how my tastes and music sensibilities change over the years. I would give it a 3.5.

Enjoyed the general vibe, but no outstanding tracks

Started off thinking I was going to quite like it, then it just became okay.

I have a soft spot for Sheryl Crow's music, but when I put my biases aside, I can't give this middling album more than a middling score

Not her best, not her worst.

decent album with some fun moments. it's pretty laid back, as you might expect from a sheryl crow album. the best song, by far here is "all i wanna do" which isn't surprising. there are some fun moments otherwise, but it doesn't get very remarkable.

There's some good stuff on this album - nothing revolutionary of course but there's enough style and personality to make it recognisably Shezza (does anyone call her Shezza?). I definitely prefer the breezy, upbeat country-rockers to the ballads or more cinematic numbers, though.

Before this, I’d only heard Sheryl Crow’s biggest hits—never a full album—so I was curious to give Tuesday Night Music Club a proper listen on a quiet Sunday evening. I’ve always enjoyed her greatest hits; they’re catchy, easygoing, and fun, even though pop/country isn’t usually my go-to genre. That said, a few tracks on this album really stood out. “Leaving Las Vegas” shines with its storytelling and energy, and “Can’t Cry Anymore” delivers an upbeat, infectious vibe that’s hard not to enjoy. On the flip side, a few songs didn’t quite land. “Strong Enough” and “Solidify” felt flat and lacked the spark to keep my attention. Overall, the album leans into a middle-of-the-road country-rock sound—solid and well-produced, but nothing particularly groundbreaking or adventurous but a good fun album with some good songs. That being said, Crow’s voice is excellent, and her songwriting talent is undeniable. While this album didn’t fully click with me, I can absolutely see the appeal for fans of this style. Favourite Tracks: “Leaving Las Vegas” and “All I Wanna Do” – both standout sing-along anthems with great energy. Least Favourite: “Strong Enough” and “No One Said It Would Be Easy” – both felt dull and forgettable. Album Artwork: A fitting, well-designed cover

"Honest! It's not what you think! I was only listening because of this app I've got. Really!" Not bad but probably they first and last time I'll listen to this one. Didn't hate it. Three stars.

Perfectly pleasant, but totally overshadowed by All I Wanna Do, with none of the other tracks leaving a lasting memory.

the most mid country rock to ever exist. her voice is nice, but the lyrics are really dumb at times. could be better, could be worse.

Ms. Crow can write an interesting song (but I seem to remember there were disputes about who wrote what? Plagiarism, or not sharing credit??). Well however they came about, these songs keep the singer-songwriter tradition happening. What radio-friendly music should be.

She has an easy, relatable, at times anthemic style. She’s never quite done it for me but perfectly inoffensive. And some of those songs have obviously ingrained themselves into popular culture so far I knew most of the words.

I am such a massive fan of Sheryl Crow's second (eponymous) album. I bring that up because I think it showcases her growth as a singer and songwriter and player (and producer) and is far superior to this album in every way. This, as a debut, is fine. Well produced, competent, scored her a couple of hits, it's a good start. But the production of her vocals is the worst part of this record. She sounds thin and strained in places, and the songwriting is derivative too often. I would strongly advocate for the second album over this one. I guess the reality is I never really liked this record. I've given it a try more than once, and each time wonder if I'll hear it differently. Nope... I think I liked it less today than ever. Glad it launched her career, but as the one of the catalog to listen to, no way.

Yeah, this was decent. All I Wanna Do is one of my favorites. Such a great groove. The rest was solid. I dug the last song. I remember liking her self-titled album a bit more.

Not sure I ever listened to this entire album. Sure the hits are still fire but I think in terms of GREAT album...her follow-up self-titled LP is better. I remember being so enthralled with her when she hit the scene b/c we didn't have many women at the time with this kind of sound and style. Case in point - there were 16 women on the main stage at Lilith Fair in 1997. Jen and I were there but can't remember if we saw Sheryl Crow, which is ridiculous!

I never really liked her big single All I Wanna Do and similarly I didn't love this album on first or second listen. Not bad, but didn't resonate. Except for Strong Enough - I always loved that softer song - and the similar softie I Shall Believe. However, the album was fine enough to keep playing until I could really pay attention and by my third go-through I found myself digging her more up-tempo rockers that started the album. Run, Baby, Run and Leaving Las Vegas (and maybe Can't Cry Anymore) are solid even if a bit flawed - she tries too hard on her vocals and there's a hint of pop sellout to the alt-country rock sound. But I still didn't really resonate with songs 5-10. Her soft songs in there are too slow or off-tempo and her up-tempo songs are uninteresting, except for maybe the Na Na Song. Trying a bit too hard for pop culture references but I like the edgy attempt. So 4 strong songs, 2 maybes, and 5 shrugs. Feels like a 3.5 at best and I'm not rounding up.

A wholesome brand of country pop

Middling.

Coffeehouse songs. Pleasant enough to sip to, but nothing catches me beyond that. okay, I liked "All I Wanna Do" enough back in the 90's and it is still a sing-along classic today.

Listenable

I haven’t felt that much like a teenage girl since listening to Houmous & Chutney’s 4th studio album ‘Feels; Like a Teenage Girl’. Written by Len about his teenage daughter’s struggles through puberty. I did suggest the title wasn’t quite right but Len insisted. His daughter still doesn’t talk to him 3.0

Jam sessions. We got a good eleven jam sesh songs here. Give up for the JAM! This album doesn’t say nothing deep, nor will it ask you to think critically. Fifty minutes of uninterrupted easy, breezy, fun. What a world. 3/5

Good album. Musically, I thought the album was pretty good. Interesting lyrics. For me, the vocals were either spot on or absolutely dreadful.

3.4 - Yeah it was pretty chill, but nothing mind blowing

Pretty much fine album. Did not offend me even slightly. 3.3/5

3/5. I love the authentic and raw emotion on this album. You can definitely feel the debut energy of it but it still has a lot of heart that you can hear in her vocals. The instrumentation is simple and with the joint songwriting, there are some varied ideas that don't always land but Sheryl somehow still makes them work. It's a solid album overall and a nice listen. Best Song: All I Wanna Do, Run Baby Run, Strong Enough

Ooooooh from only knowing her from her involvement in the cars soundtrack, this is fantastic. It’s just a nice take on grassroots rock with just some hella interesting music. I did find out that I knew All I wanna do which was a surprise so I guess I don’t just know her from cars

Easy listening for the grocery store or dentist office. Has potential but mostly falls flat

+1 for use of guitar No One Said It Would Be Easy has a great riff

Juagada maestra, de una Sheryl ambiciosa y lista que se quedó con el nombre del grupo y sus canciones. Pegó el bombazo al año de haberse publicado, cuando All i wanna do sonó en todas partes. Triunfo total para una artista que sirvió de inspiración para lo que vino después (Alanis, Meredith o Taylor por ejemplo). El antecedente podría ser Nick of time de Bonni Raitt, con regusto country (slide fabulosa) , pop, rock, jazz y blues. Todo muy americano y del gusto de todos, se hinchó a vender discos. El disco se escucha muy fácil de tirón. Destacan, al margen de su mega éxito, Run baby run, No One Said It Would Be Easy y poco más.

decent, not my jam overall. Girl power.

I didn't have high hopes going into this one. To me Sheryl Crow is a 1 hit wonder with All I Wanna Do - and I can't stand that song Was pleasantly surprised that not all of her songs were like that. Some I quite enjoyed. But there was also a lot of bad songs scattered among them Overall ok album 3 ⭐️

I wasn't expecting an Aldous Huxley reference in first song. All I Wanna Do is obviously a banger, What Can I Do For You is really interesting, enjoyed Run, Baby, Run. A fun listen but not sure I'll be back

I’ve always had respect for Sheryl Crow, though I can’t claim that I have ever truly been a full-on fan. She had the ability of taking the classic storytelling of country and blending it with good pop-sensibility and singer songwriter heart. On this album, No One Said It Would Be Easy is a perfect example of her mastery of songwriting. I know some love All I Want to Do but hearing it again after three decades of saturation leaves me feeling like All I Want to Do is change the song. It’s a good song-fun; boppy-just very overplayed. Luckily the next song We Do What We Can is a bluesy ditty with a lot of heart. You can even hear some Sara Bareilles influence win here. I am proud to call Sheryl one of ours (…as if I had anything to do with it!😀)

Liked Leaving Las Vegas and Strong Enough.

Kinda boring

I feel like the High School Music songwriters drew most of their inspiration from this album.

Reaaallll eaaasssyyyy shopping music

Tuesday Night Music Club is yet another album that falls into the category of being just good. When i first heard the the name Sheryl Crow, I thought this was going to be a country album but while this does have some country elements, i wouldn't really say that this is a country album. This album has it's fun and catchy songs which i do find to be pretty good songs but it does have some boring ones too. I wasn't too miffed at this album though because the former easily overpowered the latter even if the latter's songs were longer. I do think that this is a decent album that i never really disliked at any point. Best Song: What I Can Do For You Worst Song: No One Said It Would Be Easy

Someone mentioned Taylor Swift in the reviews which put me off at first, it was all I could hear and I can’t stand her songs - sorry not sorry. But I got past my ego, and for the better. I’m not a huge fan of Sheryl Crow, I only really like specific songs. But this is a good enough album to get into. It’s easy going, pleasant, easy listening. I did enjoy “What I Can Do For You” and it would be rude to not like “All I Wanna Do”. The chilled jazz country number “We Do What We Can” was nice too. It does seem a rather generic country rock crossover, but it’s well put together and produced properly. Sheryl brought this genre into the mainstream more than anyone else. I’m certain that she was the inspiration for a lot of young girls to pickup a guitar and play, most likely including Taylor Swift. I can hear a lot of newer artists in her sound, she must have been a significant inspiration. That counts for a lot more than what people give her credit for. I’m giving a 3 for this particular album, it’s pleasant, but not wow factor. Maybe some of her other albums are better, but this is at the height of her popularity.

Feel like this was a bookend album, enjoyed the start and end but drifted a bit in the middle. Overall enjoyable album and will stick on again

No thank you. Not for me. Accomplshed musicianship for sure but not a fun listen.

This is fine and nice to listen to, I'm just not sure why it's on this list?2.5

I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. Nice summery vibe to it.

This was good fun although not the kinda thing I’d normally put on

Sheryl Crow's debut is weird, but not in an obvious way. i feel like it has a quality to it of "trying everything", doing as many agreeable sounds as possible to try and get A Thing to stick. i start the album and "Run, Baby, Run" gobsmacks me, hitting me with this stale whiff of CMT and the radio at the local GreatClips. it's one thing opening your album with a ballad, it's another making it five minutes long. then it gets followed up by the much better "Leaving Las Vegas". there's roots rock, there's five minute harmonized folk ballads like Alison Krauss, and there's an inexplicable melding of country, rap, and the "We Didn't Start the Fire" method of protest song where you're just sort of listing stuff. all of it feels like it's in the wrong place, next to the wrong songs, and you could probably spend hours finding an order in which it makes sense but you'll still probably have a few pieces that won't fit. maybe you could call this aspect of the record eclectic, but i just think it's messy. charming, but still messy. with it hitting that cornball middle point between 70's country rock and disco, "All I Wanna Do" becoming a smash hit simultaneously feels like it was always meant to be and like a complete accident. they released four singles from this beforehand and that was what made No. 2 on the Billboard 100. a disco country song about talking with a drunk guy at a bar provided actual competition to "I'll Make Love to You". wild.

Wasn't a fan in the 90's when this was all over the radio but I was like 10 years old when this came out so thought maybe I'd come around 30 years later. Nope, still not a fan. The album wanders around aimlessly through different genres but never really hits any of the consistenly well. The radio singles are fine but not much happening outside of that. Igiving it a 3 for the nostalgia factor.

Considerable amount of songs that feel filler but there is a number of decent ones, plus the overall feeling thia record provides is a sort of smoothness, joy, but also light melancholy.

Pleasant enough easy listening

It was ok

It’s ok, in its way

Found her voice annoying on some songs, but I liked We Do What All We Can and All I Wanna Do as my standout tracks Music behind the vocals was pretty generic and meh

Somehow, her first album sounds like typical Sheryl Crow, which is an accomplishment in itself. Mellow Rock 'n Roll with a touch of folk. Definitely not a bad album by any means, and even contains her most popular song, but I expected a bit better, because all I wanna do is have some fun. Favorite song: "Leaving Las Vegas".

Better than expected but half are boring as fuck but there's a couple bangers.

Pretty good 3.5

Strong mid-90s coffee house vibes.

Boring but not bad

This was the first CD I ever owned. That being said, it's been like 30 years since I've listened to it. It is a decent album and more varied than I remember. I do think some of why I like it is nostalgia, but I did enjoy it for whatever reason. 3.49/5

Someone mentioned in a review that she is the female Tom Petty. I can see that - it’s a pretty cool observation. However, in her own right, Sheryl Crow has an amazing, amazing voice, and she really makes every song sound interesting. The genre is not really for me, but there is something here that’s still interesting enough for me to keep listening. I do think that Solidify, The Na-Na Song and What Can I Do could be dropped from the tracklisting.

Pretty boring, unfortunately. Very solidly middle-of-the-road.

Μουσικη για road trip. Καποια αρκετα catchy κομματια και hooks. Μ αρεσε πολυ που θυμισε τα παιδικα μου χρονια μεσω του κομματιου στο Cars. Οκ καπως βαρετη μουσικη αλλα μαρεσε.

Long time since listened to this. Aged well still some good tracks

This one's going straight to my 'people pleasing' playlist. It's kind of catchy, but not too catchy; it's kind of interesting, but not too interesting; it's kind of sonically present, but not too sonically present. The kind of music anyone can appreciate, but few will actually love.

I enjoyed this. When I started singing along to can't cry anymore, it had me wondering if I only liked songs that I knew and if the emotion was really nostalgia. Strong Enough my favourite.
