Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Some amazing songs and a good composition but some tracks seemed out of place

Classic album with amazing songs.

It was a double album, so there is a lot of mediocre filler. There are definitely some all time classics in here. Bennie and the Jets is overrated though. The epic first combo track is the best

Fav Song: Benny and the Jets

Loved this! Lively, fun, 70s pop. Good ol Elton.

I never paid much attention to Elton John beyond the hits, but I should have.

Überraschender Einsatz von Synthesizer usw.

Felt like a long musical soundtrack -- which I'm not really a huge fan of in abundance -- with weird (bad) genre side roads that seem to come out of nowhere. Lots of obvious classics but I have a hard time trying to figure out if I think these are great songs or if I have just heard them so many times that I've been conditioned to recognize the melodies and its tricking my brain into thinking I like them. Standout tracks: Funeral for a Friend / Love Lies Bleeding, Bennie and the Jets (but maybe just because Q-Tip made me like it when he sampled it so well), Goodby Yellow Brick Road, Saturday Night's Alright (for Fighting)

Classics all, and took all day to get through the album!

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. The songs I'm less familiar with were the ones I liked most, which I think shows that my dislike of Elton John is more down to him being overplayed for decades than for the actual content. When forced to listen properly to the more popular tunes on this album even those fare well under my totally biased spotlight. Though, if I never hear Candle In The Wind again, it'll be too soon. It should be banned.

pretty solid album

Peppy pop music, there are so many solid hits on this one.

Classic!

Another Elton John album. Enjoyed "I've seen that movie too" and "Candle in the wind", but overall not as good as the previous one.

Has many of Elton John's Greats! Definitely a 5.

This album slaps. Sir Elton don't miss!

Fighissimo

Thought I knew this album pretty well already, but looking over the track list there are a number of songs I’ve never heard before. Checking it out now. Really great. Parts are a bit samey.

Banger. Solid 4. Never listened to an Elton John album. Knew some songs on it, there were some other good ones. Ran long, 17 tracks. Like an hour and then some. Towards the end I was a lil tired of it, but I get why he's super famous, writes good music

all the songs sound the same pretty much

Fantastic album from start to finish.

Elton John is a beast.

Mere festligt end man skulle tro. Lidt ballader udover Candle in the wind, men ellers primært godt popmusik. Lidt langt og lidt for meget fyld

One of my first deeper dives into classic rock as a teenager.

I can’t lie. I love ole Reginald. Incredible pianist and song writer. Full marks

Album started off strong with some classic hits, and I really enjoyed a new song for me, Love Lies Bleeding. Besides Saturday Night's Alright, the rest of the album was... fine.

3,5

An album from Elton’s golden period. Good listen with big hit singles. Definitely warrants a listen and deservedly included in the 1001.

I was already familiar with some tracks from this album but it was my first time actually hearing it and I can see why It's considered Elton John's magnum opus.

Good consistent album with some great tracks on it 7.5/10

great album

A classic. If it had been a single album it would get a 5.

Like a dope rock opera.

Classic Elton John Album, but I just wasn't a huge fan. Can't put my finger on why. Might just be my mood today.

Classic

Very beautiful, heartbreaking songs, side by side with energetic, fun songs. Closer to a 4.5 (jamaica jerk-off kinda sucks though)

I know the first two songs (fucking amazing) and a few other tracks as well. If the rest of the album is as good as those this is heading for a 5. Ok, and it is! This is going in my regular listening, what an album. I knew Elton could write a song, but this is way better than expected. 5/5.
