Graceland

I enjoy the album, but I just don’t get the crazy critical acclaim of Simon. He’s good, i like some of his songs but only a few songs I’ve heard of his have stuck with me over others. 3 to 4 star is good,

Fun and sometimes a little weird, but rather boneless

hey there Mr. Jambo

Waaay to 80s synthy for me.. Thought it was made by an Australian because of all the tribal singing.. (I was wrong)

Some songs were good, others felt meh. I could get into a groove for a bit but then the song changes and the next one is just ok. Pretty good album though

Pretty good

Gleda meg til å høre, men denne var ganske kje og skuffende

Liker den ganske så godt, ja, men kan ikke høre den for ofte, for den er litt irriterende også.

Listened before? No Familiar with the artist? Yes, but I think I know more Simon and Garfunkel than solo stuff. Thoughts: - This is a weird one for me; it might have been a mistake to read the full Wikipedia article before listening. I'm definitely not educated enough on South Africa to discuss whether the album should have been made, but I think I did end up going into it with a bit of a negative bias. - Musically there are a lot of cool things going on, and I do like the singles, but I don't see myself coming back to most of it. - I think this one will go into the "I get why it's on the list but it's not for me" category. Favorite track(s): You Can Call Me Al Least favorite: Under African Skies is pretty (sorry to use the word but,) cringe . . .

Liked Crazy Love, Vol. II

I like paul Simon more than his contemporaries and rank him ahead of Bob Dylan. Great album.

I struggle with this album but I can't deny that it's well wrought and conceived. I really like the title track and can admittedly take or leave much of the rest.

Pleasant, if a little bland.

Ok album with some wierd songs and some really good ones. Overall a decent experience. The bass playing was groovy as hell. Favorite song was You Can Call Me Al and Under African Skies.

Não é meu estilo, achei meio sem sal.

Very busy and fast instrumentals throughout, surprised me a bit for Simon's softer voice and earlier work. The African mixed in was interesting, but most of this sounded like a version of Call Me Al - sing-talking fast to those instrumentals.

Flink og velmenende hvit mann drar til Sør-Afrika for å spille inn plate. Ender med å finne opp Vampire Weekend.

Really digging the African music vibes but when it leans into that 80s sound the album falls apart fast. Still a fine accomplishment. All good songs but none of them just really hit me.

I remember when this came out, great sing along tunes for the whole family

Have enjoyed slightly more on the second go around, however still have a hard time with this one. I appreciate the experimentation with sounds but the intended exuberhance comes off corny instead to me. Some good harmonies throughout the tracks

Couple of great tracks but overall not a standout album

So THIS is the album You Can Call Me Al is on. Heard that as a single plenty of times but never in the context of the whole album. That song really stands out from the entire rest of the album to me in being way more modern sounding (for the time) compared to the rest.

Альбом имеет приятное звучание. That’s it…

couple great songs, couple questionable ones and some mid 6/10 best song - you can call me al

Some nice songs but I liked his work with Garfunkel more.

It didn’t excite me a lot

I like this album but not as much as others. I think this is one of those albums that people think they HAVE to like. There's some songs I do like and some I'm just not into.

Es ist ein solides, rhythmisch starkes Album, das Simon mit südafrikanischen Einflüssen neu auflädt. Es hat Energie, Ideen, Handwerk – aber es bleibt weit entfernt vom Glanz und der emotionalen Tiefe des Duos. Die besten Momente funkeln kurz, doch das Gesamtwerk wirkt eher wie ein cleveres Experiment als ein Klassiker.

its perfectly fine, nothing that made me think "wow, this is amazing!" this album probably just isnt for me, though i can see why others would enjoy it a whole lot more. my favorite tracks was probably you can call me al and under african skies

It was fine, some good classic tunes on there. Perfect background listening but nothing that really excited me.

It was good! Not for me, but I can see why it made the list. Loved the mix of African and Mexican music.

En general muy buen álbum. Me gustó mucho.

Nothing to write home about, familiar with a few of the songs though

Album has some familiar songs on it. Didn’t mind the rest of the album.

I liked Diamonds on the soles of her shoes and You Can Call me Al, last half of the album is kinda eh

For as much as I like Paul Simon, I had never really dug deeper into Graceland outside of the singles. This was fine. I’m surprised it’s so highly regarded though. At the time, I’m sure it seemed revolutionary. But listening with fresh ears and it just taking it in, it’s simply good.

I have so many scenes to set here that I may have set during the last Paul Simon review. To be brief, I didn’t grow up with Paul Simon so I don’t have the built in love for him that so many do. Second, I have a student who only listens to this album and no other album, he blasts it while we work in the shop truly every day. I really like this student, I cannot stand this album. Music for a curious George soundtrack. Production is whack and empty, I don’t find his quirkiness to be charming, I just don’t get it. Musicality high don’t get me wrong, and the man can obviously write a song, but I have completely missed the boat with Mr Simon. You can call me Al rips though.

It's been 24 hours and I still don't know how to feel about it. Maybe one I need to be in the right mood for? Or listen to a bunch to fall in love with? Or maybe just pedestrian? IDK 5/10

other than having "mr jambo" syndrome its otherwise pretty enjoyable. recognized a couple songs at least

Album #128: Graceland - Paul Simon Genre (W): Worldbeat, pop, rock, folk, Afropop Singles: You Can Call Me Al, Graceland, The Boy in the Bubble, Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes, Under African Skies I have not listened to this album before. Thoughts?: I enjoy Paul Simon’s songwriting and the African influences in the music! I think the African influences elevate the album’s songwriting to another height though and overshadows a few of the attempts at great songwriting. An okay album. Favorite tracks: Graceland, Gumboots, Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes, You Can Call Me Al, Under African Skies, Homeless, Crazy Love, Vol. II

So different than his stuff with S&G. A nice sound though!

This album was an interesting genre mix. I liked You can call me Al and Diamonds on the soles of her shoes. The songs were quite long. The production and clear sounds were great and I also liked Paul Simons voice. Not sure I vibe with all the talk singing he does, but I enjoyed the rhythms.

honestly it was fine but not my cup of tea

No nie wiem, poczytałam o tej płycie, faktycznie coś tu nie tak, ale jak mam ocenić tylko muzykę, a to też mam zamiar zrobić, to okazało się że znam trochę tej płyty, całkiem buja, ale nie wrócę do niej pewnie do świętego nigdy.

3.5/5

뭐라 쓰지

5/5 for the music, 1/5 for the ham-fisted politics.

While it's most notable for the African musicians and influences involved, Graceland confines the most overt examples of those influences to short intros or interludes where the guests take center stage. But there are plenty of songs where the influences are subtle, a guitar rhythm here or some percussion there. I think this works to the album's advantage and is preferrable to Simon attempting more traditional versions of those genres. This is partially because the songs here are quite strong. The melodies are good and while the vocals and hooks are usually subdued they do worm their way into your brain. I do feel it lacks more than a few standout songs, and one downside to the subtle approach is that despite the variety many of the songs sound quite similar. A good collection, but one that mostly makes me want to explore its influences more.

Very Americana for a New York Jew. He was from New York, no? Anyways, a mostly killer album but the song ¨I Know What I Know¨ is annoying as hell. Great for a drive through rural upstate SC.

1. wesoła o niczym, spoko głos 7/10 2. 6/10 3. 6.5/10 4. smieszne 7/10 5. african vibes 7/10 6. muzyka świetna tekst fajny 8.5/10 7. 5/10 8. 5/10 9. 5/10 10. 4/10 11. 5/10 Album 6/10

I dunno. It's a bit dated.

Paul is really good at what he does. His vocals are so smooth that the pop he creates is smothered in his vocal butter. And for the most part that is a good thing because he can really sing well and his tone is frankly perfect. The music, being the pancakes in this metaphor, sometimes suffers because of the amount of vocal butter which drowns the stack so much that all you really taste is the butter and not much pancake. And I really would probably enjoy more of the pancake taste. Aside from the cultural misappropriation, Paul sands the edges of some pretty catchy music in an effort to fit it into his sonic palate. Still, there are several songs that are so sweet and catchy as fuck, but too much of a good thing has side effects. In this case, there is a sameness that carries from track to track that interferes with overall enjoyment for me. So, this is a short stack record and not a full. 3/5

An okay album, i liked You Can Call Me Al and All around the World the most.

Simon ja Garfunkel on tuttua jo lapsuudesta, sitä on kuultu kotona ja varsinkin autossa paljon. Tätä Paul Simonin levyä en kuitenkaan kasarilla muista kuulleeni. Tai korkeintaan hitin You can call me Al. Jo menestystä niittäneen musiikillisen neron yritys tehdä jotain luovaa monikulttuurisesti siinä koko lailla hyvin onnistuen. Hyviä biisejä mutta ehkä Paul Simon -asteikolla vähän väkisin väännetyn oloinen albumi kuitenkin. 3/5

This album and Simon's use of African music has been known to me all my life, honestly, but besides the song Al, I've never actually given this album a shot. So I'll let my cultural feelings about this one settle, but the music for the most part wasn't the most exciting anyways. The bassist was phenomenal, though, if it was solely him it would've probably been five stars.

I was really glad to see this as my album of the day but dismayed to find how much my opinion on it has changed!! I think it’s partially that our headteacher in primary school used to play diamonds on the soles of her shoes for us to walk into assembly every bloody week (day??? Year 6 was a long time ago…) so it held some begrudging nostalgia for me. I also now listen to a lot of world music, so this no longer feels like a good example or truly representative of that the way it maybe used to be for me. I also remembered feeling like this album was a really cohesive record and this time around I actually thought it was massively disjointed! Songs like ‘You can call me Al’ (whilst brilliant!!) felt completely out of place. Anyway, I’m now listening to the eponymous, and in my opinion far superior record: Paul Simon.

i feel like paul simon really had fun producing this. cute lang ganun. i feel like this is that kind of album u listen to as a kid bc of ur dad then pag napakinggan mo to when you're older sobrang nostalgic ganun. track 2 (graceland) is the cutest song ever. bass lines go crazy sa you can call me al tho

Listened in the past and could never connect with this album, but the more I learned about the making the more I liked it.

Pleasant listen all around. Fitting for a summer pool party. However, not quite memorable. 3/5.

Ughhhh. Look, it's probably his masterpiece but I cannot make myself care about Paul Simon. I promise I've tried and I don't think any amount of trying harder is going to change the outcome.

enjoyed: i know what i know & homeless; esp the african influence with the ladysmith black mambazo feature

Good album overall, I did not get bored thanks to the versatility of it but I probably don’t need to listen it again. I do understand this album is very important tho

-definitely the most unique-sounding Paul Simon work i’ve heard so far, obviously because of the introduction of South African / Louisiana elements -i’m intrigued by the lore and controversy surrounding this album, i wouldn’t say it’s my favorite Paul Simon album but it’s really good and i’m glad it was made -Favorites: Graceland, You Can Call Me Al, Under African Skies

Ngl I like

Decent. Really dig You Can Call Me Al

7/10

There’s lots to enjoy about this album - the poetic lyricism, it’s infectious instrumentals and the collaboration with African artists really gave the record a vibrance that was super fun to listen to. A few songs did fall a bit flat for me though when compared against some of the more upbeat tracks.

I feel like his heart was in the right place.

3.5/5

Interesting, but not really my thing. This album also combines different genres and styles, most proeminently the African influence, but there is what seems like counrty and even disco at parts. You Can Call Me Al is at least a 4 star song and goes in the playlist. In the rest I didn't really feel it. Now I made the somewhat problematic habit of reading comments to learn more and don't go on what it sounds like to me alone. And about the 'culture appropations' comments, I hope that things have tempered down since the years they were made. I discovered and love too many black artists on this site to let this bs treat them like some alien species. The hypocrisy as always. Plus, there worked genuine African artists so... I would give higher rate just in spite, but as I said I didn't really feel it and that's more important to me, otherwise I would be just like the one star hypocrites.

Blind listen. Love the opening track. it reeks of a kind of hope that doesn’t exist during our day and age. kind of got really sad listening. Graceland is so beautiful. It’s so cute and sweet and soft. I’m enjoying the blend of different sounds and cultures. It’s working well. African Skies is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard. —POEM— The Boy In Graceland Knows Boys On Their Soles On Call Under Homeless Skies A Crazy Love, All That Myth

Some more good tunes on this album. Widely regarded as his best but only about half of it appeals to me. The first half mainly. Enough tracks on here to keep me interested but several I would skip if I heard it through again..

It was very sweet, i liked the album

2 Simons op korte tijd is beetje teveel van het goede. Toch een objectieve 3 sterren.

high-key chill

Obviously, well crafted I think the best thing about it is just the laid-back nature of his vocal delivery is so cool and he plays around with the rhythm a lot on the bad side, the world Best craziness is a bit annoying and a little cultural appropriation Ish, but I still more or less enjoyed this.

Pop Rock/Worldbeat Favorite Songs: The Boy in the Bubble, Graceland, Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes, You Can Call Me Al, Crazy Love, Vol. II Least Favorite Song: I Know What I Know Another pleasant surprise from this website. I was going in without really any expectations, and here I am blown away from this album. The inclusion of using African Music in this album works for the most part as it’s used as a celebration of African Music. Even with some of the Pop Rock stuff like ‘You Can Call Me Al’ is a really nice touch that doesn’t break any of the flow at all. Overall, I like this album to where I would recommend it to other people. EDIT as of 08/29/26: ...oh dear...so...I've done some research on the album and the artist in question...he's...not a good person I would say. So, the main reason why I'm deciding to change the score now was because I'm currently making a video of some of my favorite albums that I've ended up loving throughout my listening journey, even albums that aren't from this website. There's a big controversial part of the album that I didn't realize until just typing this edited portion of the review. https://medium.com/the-riff/paul-simons-graceland-turns-40-i-wish-i-hadn-t-researched-it-40ee0556e0a9 I suggest those to read this article as it details everything about how Paul Simon was acting extremely scummy, but the short version of it was how not only did he broke laws recording in a place in South Africa, but also he didn't even credited the people that helped worked the album with the exception of performance. There's also Heidi Berg who was being mentored by Simon, and when she wanted to give him *her* idea of *her* (Pause...reflect...I do mean by *******HER*******) album, Simon decided to take the concept and ended up making it his own. Frankly, I think this guy's a bit of a jerk. He might be a very good influential folk singer, but I don't think that I can support this kind of controversy he presented himself with. As such, I originally made the score as an 8/10 with four stars. However, because of this, I have to dock a point for the unprofessionalism that he made. 7/10, and I'm also rating this three stars. It's still a good album, but I don't think that I can justify liking it anymore.

This song really makes me want to take a vacation. Don't know what rating that translates to, thinking a good-hearted melodic 3.

sounds like playing trombone champ

Feels like White Lotus

carino, mi piace

It took losing Carrie Fisher to write this album, and I don't know if that is worth the trade

Brings back memories from my childhood - not really to my taste, but my mum listened to it a lot

entretenido, me gustaron mucho las melodiad que tienen las canciones

I was familiar with Graceland (the song) and You Can Call Me Al, but I am pretty sure I had never heard this album before. There is a lot of 80s we are the world vibe to it that.owes to its era. The album is catchy, but sometimes it feels a little forced as well. Overall, it's not a hard album to listen to, and I'd consider it re-listenable.

mid muziek maar z’n stem s de redeeming factor hier

A pleasant listen but probably my least favourite Paul Simon / Simon & Garfunkel album I’ve had come up on the generator so far. I liked the African influence though.

Not my thing. Too much world/African influence. I’m happy that other people enjoy it.

Started strong, got weird real quick

Solid listen, honed sound

Deuxieme est bonne

Feels like a different time different vibe. Weird. Ok after 2 or 3 songs I’m enjoying it. The album opens up after the first 3 songs or maybe I just got used to the sound. I liked it. Maybe 3 stars?

At the very least, this was interesting. Something for everyone here, even some zydeco! Fun call, though I don’t think I’d listen again

*59 Fantastisk vokal. Gode indslag fra Sydafrika og Senegal. Det er simpelthen dog alt for happy go lucky. Man bliver lidt kuk.

Jeg synes det er udemærket, men jeg er heller ikke helt oppe at dinge

nice. some good ones. call me Al honestly wasn't even the best on the album

I ignored this when it was new because I thought it seemed middle of the road and watered down rather than an innovative fusion of styles. Right call, teenage me. If you want to listen to zydeco, there's plenty out there without having to sully it with Paul Simon vocals.

Enjoyed it to start. Did some interesting things with spoken word and music. But became a little too the same by the end

WHEEEE happy happy smiles and joy

You can call me al is a wonderful classic. The rest of the album sounds similar but not as good. So the album as a whole is just ok.

Not my fav Paul Simon but it’s not bad

ok

Got a little weird after African Skies. This is a take it or leave it album for me. Very much a 3. 3/5

Oh man, here we go. The album which contains arguably the worst song of all time. I say arguably, because there's always one dick who will be all like 'but it is very well recorded and produced, with sublime if quirky lyrics and ear-opening instrumentation'. No no - it's just shit. But maybe the rest of the album is good? Well, who am I to say what's good? Objectively sure, there's good stuff here. Culturally, it seems you can fall into two camps - foul appropriation which he should be shamed for, or shining a spotlight on artistry which he should be praised for. Me? I don't care. I can admit that musicically, lyrically, vocally it is 'good' . But musically, lyrically, vocally, it was mostly painful for me. I don't like Simon's vocal approach, his intonation and the repetitive talky rhythm which rarely changes from song to song. It evokes an absense of feeling and a lack of melody. The African singers...I've never understood the appeal. Every time I've heard that group perform I don't understand the worship and applause they receive. The bass sound is terrible - Call Me Al is not the exception. Lyrically, it's the usual storytelling malarkey which is fine but goes in one ear and out the other for me. Musically, there is plenty packed in but it still all comes out sounding like Call Me Al. Several songs follow a suspiciously similar set of chords and root notes. But the band plays well and you know it's a talented bunch. Outside of a couple of songs though, all of that talent doesn't add up to anything on a personal level. I'm bewildered that the album sold so well more than the fact that it is still held in such high regard. I get that Boomers eat this sort of thing up and that it was an important album by an important dude. It's more interesting than his debut, but the style and the vocals don't do it for me.

"You Can Call Me Al" is the most famous track from this album, but Ladysmith Black Mambazo stole the show for me. I really liked the South African influence in this album. "Under African Skies" is a lot of fun. The vocal harmonies on "Homeless" elevated the listening experience dramatically for me.

11 songs Added to liked: -The Boy In the Bubble (knew the song) -You Can Call Me Al (knew the song)

Awin mawe awin mawe awin mawe awin mawe Me agarro medio en contramano la verdad, se me hace admirable la mezcla de folk anglogermánico con el sudáfricano. Dicho esto no me veo escuchándolo. No queda guardado pero awin mawe awin mawe

Havent fully listened

parecía música d animación de pixar por partes

Overraskende pent.

Good, nice energy and interesting themes - but felt somewhat twee and samey after a while.

It's like when a reggae fan wants to do reggae music. It sometimes slaps though

Rv

This album was pretty fun. I like hearing all the different styles.

Afrikkalaista perinnemusiikkia yhdistettynä länsimaalaiseen folkkiin ja poppiin. Ja muutama muu johonkin haitarimusiikkiim sekoitettu biisi. Taas yllättäen (eli ei) hyväntuulista. Parhaat: Graceland, You Can Call Me Al

You mentioned yesterday that there is a great pleasure in writing a negative review. It is easier to articulate and challenge the mistakes than it is to isolate and garland the achievements. It is a hard to describe art. Clearly, then there is a potentially greater pleasure in making a moral argument against something that you find aesthetically displeasing: more and bigger mistakes, less messy nuance. Grand dismissal is theatrically more satisfying than the snide, detailed takedown. It eats into your time less as well. You can get on about your day. When the target is an 80s, multi-hit mega-seller that everyone likes, the pleasure is even more immense. And, so, I know what I'll be doing when we generate Thriller by predatory paedophile, Michael Jackson. I like Graceland. The songs are all sweet and catchy. The collaborations are clearly successful on record, if not elsewhere. Paul Simon remains as oblique as Bob Dylan, but with a bit more effort. 3.5 These are very pretty songs with nice Paul Simony lyrics. What else is there to say? 2.5/5

The music was great, especially the Afrobeat and Zydeco tracks. I just kinda hate his voice. If he'd shut up it would have been a better album.

All in all it's not bad but not my vibe, not my style.

Some songs carry the album more than others. More enjoyable blended genre than I expected.

Destacados del album: 1- The boy in the bubble: linda letra y abre de forma muy linda el album. Aborda temas como la violencia la decepcion ante los impulsos, la embriaguez y la violencia de la crianza que caracterizaban esos años ". 2-All around the world or the myth of fingerprints: Lo pongo como destacado ya que contiene referencias de un tema de charly garcia y ademas la letra esta buena señalando a las camaras, presentadores de television y haciendo un juego de palabras nombrando a brad pit implicitamente, "on the black pit town". Resumen del álbum: Claramente es un álbum atravesado por la cultura africana, como se puede ver en "homeless" y otros albums. Contiene artistas compañeros de allá mismo también y varias frases en idioma suajili por lo que pude averiguar. Me parece lindo el concepto y lo que representa pero siento que no se ha exprimido la idea al máximo de lo que podría haber dado. Hay temas que son de aquellos los cuales uno ya parece haber escuchado alguna vez, obvio son de los 80s así que mas o menos la mayoría mantiene esa acústica y efectos tanto en guitarras y voz. Observaciones: "All around the world or the myth of fingerprints" repite ritmo y cierta melodia de "no me dejan salir" de Charly garcia. No se bien si se conocen estos dos musicos o paul simon era su oyente o algo asi pero se hace un dato extravagante de oir. En sintesis: A este album le doy un 6, disfrute escucharlo pero no lo volveria a escuchar completo

wowwww the song graceland is just stuck in my head now hahahaaa.

Good

Upbeat, happy and not bad at all

I actually wrote a decent review for once, but then the site fucking died. Alas, the album was actually not too bad and somewhat enjoyable until we started hitting the middle of the album where the Lion King/breathing bullshit starts.

Im surprised that I liked this more than his other albums on this list.. but he still sounds like raisins in potato salad

funky, folk/country tyylinen levy. haitari kuulostaa hyvältä ensimmäisessä biisissä. miksaus kuulostaa selkeältä. kolmanessa kappalessa on hyvät choir/tribal voksut jotka ovat kertosäkeen päällä. Taustakuorosta ei oikeen saa selvää. neljännessä kappaleessa harmonikan kyytiin tulee myös saksofoni. tässä kappalessa voisi lisätä vocalseihin lisää kaikua. tulee myös bob dylan fiilis vocalsien rytmityksestä. vitosbiisissä hyvä maailmanmusiikki fiilis 6 biisi vaihtuu suoraan 80 luvulle ja se kuuluu taustalla soivista syntheistä.. mikä vittu tää on tää snare tässä vikassa biisissä???

Love the African and texmex vibes

Ritmos tribales, muy rítmico, creo que lo habia escuchado en su dia, pero es alegre y con motivación

So I love Paul Simon, even though I find his writing a bit pretentious. For 1986, I think it's kind of brave to try an African themed album mixed with folk/pop. I think Graceland is a masterpiece of writing in my opinion and carries the entire album. I do find the rest of the album overrated and somewhat annoying. Again, another album with incredible musicianship. Especially the bass. I dig the African vibe though in small doses.

Ouf... Where to even start. The highs are high but the lows are just beyond more low. I don't care about the lack of credit Paul Simon have to the South African artists (I do but not in the context of how I feel about the music), I don't think it's cultural appropriation, and I don't think it was wrong of him to record in Johannesburg during the apartheid embargo. His voice is just so muted and soft and kind of twee. The mid range is really muffled. I have good memories wrapped up in this album and it was hard to decide if this were a 3 or a 4. Either way, it just doesn't resonate like it used to.

Cute for a rode trip but i dont think ive have achieved this level of happiness and joy in my heart quite yet

80s rockers had a strange but common symptom of a midlife crisis: they began drawing inspiration for new songs from Africa. Paul Simon even went so far as to dig so deep that he actually went to South Africa to record with local artists, prompting a howl from the leftist morality police, because of apartheid. This howl continues to this day, this time on the topic of "cultural appropriation" (which, by the way, doesn't exist), which doesn't prevent the album from being quite positive and danceable. But what does Africa have to do with it? No, there are some of their folk music here, but it starts around the middle of the album and are expressed through bongos and folk chants. There's a much stronger influence of country, rockabilly, and classic rock 'n' roll here, and the African theme was explored long before this album's release by Talking Heads, and not long ago by Peter Gabriel. And they did a much better job.

I couldn’t care less about supposed cultural appropriation. This is just a boring album. It’s not bad, just not very good either.

it was ok i suppose, not to the level of the other album though

This record had a very poppy feel to it. Very easy to listen to and unoffensive. Favourite Track(s): Gumboots, That Was Your Mother Least Favourite Track(s): Diamonds on The Soles of Her Shoes

Recognized one song, the rest was new to me. Wasn't crazy about it

I really enjoyed this album. I liked all the African and German influences on it. This album really used all the features well. I also think that the time period can really be herd on Graceland because of the 80 system production. I'll give it a 5 or6.

a few good songs, nothing spectacular.

The whitest man who ever whited taking “inspiration” from African music to make an absolute fortune? A story as old as Elvis. At least Paul Simon doesn’t touch kids.

Incredibly well produced and nicely performed. Every song sounds the same to me.

80s folk rock. Features eclectic mixture of genres, including pop, rock, a cappella, zydeco, isicathamiya and mbaqanga. South African influence. His most successful album. Style does not do it for me, couple of hits.

the simon with no garfunkel. this one is weird. simultaneously i have a lot of thoughts on it but am struggling for things to say about it. the songs are like, fine? there's a lot of good sounds in em but they're honestly a little samey and as there's not really much of a structure to the album as a whole i have trouble telling the songs apart. this makes "homeless" my favourite almost by default since it's the only track different enough to catch my attention. which feels a little unfair cos it is genuinely a good song. but its shining brighter against its blurred surroundings, yknow? having said this, it's not that other songs didn't catch my attention, but in most other cases what i was noticing was that the lyrics are kind of fucking bad. paul simon's vocal style is fine but i'm not a fan of the "i said, he said, i said, she said" loop he repeatedly falls into throughout this album. it got so severe in "i know what i know" that it legitimately pissed me off and i had to go take a shower. i don't need a blow by blow account of a conversation you had one time dude. gimme a break.. ultimately my feelings on this one are complicated. i think i like it, but the bad lyrics keep taking me out of it, but i don't think it would be better as an instrumental album cos i enjoy the quality of the vocals as an instrument. i feel like vampire weekend did a much better job with the same musical ideas, but i don't think this album is worse for it even if contra is kind of just the same album but better. and i'm not even gonna get into the political context this was made in. probably not the wisest move? idk. ....i'm tired of thinking about this album.

Divorce albums are sometimes something special. It's hard to rate this specific one in a vacuum considering the politics of it, but it's undeniably a continuous jam with a great variety of instruments and vocalists. While it's not something that draws me in enough to listen to it again, I bet it makes a pretty good neutral roadtrip pick. "That Was Your Mother" is not great. Simon's voice hits such a dissonant tone with the rest of the song and it does not meld at all. But this is the only standout offender.

Sympa !

From a technical standpoint, this album is AMAZING. There is about 4 different genres all put together, usually within the same song! Rock, country, funk, folk, etc. Pretty amazing. Each song is beautifully and articulately crafted. I love the crisp bass. The lyrics are incredible. The challenge for me is the sound is very dated, sounds EXACTLY like 1986. Also, Paul is clearly a one-truck pony on this album. Every single song is just stream of consciousness almost spoken word verses. It gets old after a while. Artistically this is a 5, but I struggle getting into it from an actual listening standpoint.

I agree 100% with Chris.

Diamonds on the soles of her shoes hat mir am besten gefallen! You can call me Al kannte ich. Insgesamt gute Stimmung. Sehr rhythmisch.

ya tellement de trucs différents quesaco

A pretty excellent album. I liked it enough, but it has that scent of the kind of music that would benefit greatly from re-listening: like it asks of you a warm familiarity. I feel like I only half-grokked onto it, when it's the kind of album that you're meant to nostalgically remember playing in the car on a hot road trip in your childhood. Maybe I need to listen to this again while cradling a beer on the verandah or something. Thankfully, it's got some groovy-as-hell basslines and Afro sound peppering an album that would suffer from being yet another folk-infused cheesy 80s popfest. I like it a lot, and I think it has some enormous potential to be a subtle favourite, but for now it's not blowing my socks off. Fav tracks: I Know What I Know, Homeless

You can certainly call me Al but I don’t know if the rest of it left much of an impact for me personally!

Not as good as I'd expected. The other one was better

Some very familiar songs.

2.6/5 I love the vibe of this album. I could just see myself listening to this while on holiday looking over the beach having a few drinks. In saying that, a few songs that I didn't really like but I'm sure if I listened to this more I'd rate it higher.

Yeah it’s ok I only saved to songs impressive variation and sound but it a bit bland and the most listened to song was not the best I didn’t comprehend probably gonna be a 3-4/10

Tonttumusiikkia. Afrikkalainen musiikin tyylilaji mbaqanga on inspiroinut albumia.

good. 6/10

Pretty good album, mixes African sounds with Paul Simon’s folk stand our songs: the boy in yhe bubble Graceland You can call me Al

Not my style

7.5/10 No es mi estilo, pero es bueno

Estuvo bien, pero me aburrió.

I like the lyrics, but the music, way less. I dindt expect this album to sound like that. At the same time I know almost nothing abouth Simon and Garfunkel. Or just Paul Simon in general.o Disapointed with this one, I expected to like it more :/

Very interesting album. Did not expect the large amount of African music influence and features from African artists including Lady Black Mambazo whose album I listened to from this list. Still not that captivating, some really boring, plain 80s pop songs, but unique album

255/1089 oooh it’s simon as in garfunkel. i’m liking the mix of genres here, it’s very peaceful and harmonious it was a nice album to listen to, probably above average and i think i’d listen again faves: The Boy in the Bubble, Graceland 56/100

3/5 I completely understand the innovation and the art behind the album and concept, I like Simon as an artist and definitely there is incredible talent behind each song. But is not my cup of tea.

3 stars

I can appreciate the plethora of influences in here and the collaborations. I disliked the recording and production quality was very inconsistent across tracks. Some sounding great, some with questionable mixing decisions being made. All in all, not a bad record. I wouldn't listen again, but I'm glad I did once.

Mostly recorded in South Africa iirc. The SA jazz and jive influence is very present and adds quite a lot to the album imo.

3.5⭐️/5 03.28.2026

It was ok. 3/5

Call me Al got stuck with me for two days. Talented guy.

Distinto a lo que suelo escuchar, pero me gustó. Sobre todo el estilo country y la voz del cantante. Me guarde algunos temas que fueron mis favoritos. Uno de ellos " graceland"

Me gustó pero no es lo que suelo escuchar

Paul Simon is an all-timer for a reason. Although I think I may prefer his dark and brooding “bridge over troubled water” era

Has an upbeat vibe. I very much liked the first track.

while i was listening to the title track my girlfriend messaged me to say that it sucks. i can see the argument for that! especially given how this is the poster child of slicked up, westernized, white-savior "world music". what a gross term. "world music". is the anglosphere not part of the world? lord knows this list is guilty as hell of ignoring everything outside of it. but i digress. this is pretty light and definitely keeps the bounce of the Southern African music inspiring it. pretty decent listen overall; does a good job too at standing up to the very 80s production style. deserves to be one of the 1001? yea, but like. add in some shit from the scenes that inspired it, ok?

Easy

Great 80’s album from 60’s icon

I'm not as hyped as some others on here. It's quite good fun. I think the different musical influences and collaborations bring a bit of a different flavour to it. You Can Call Me Al is the most famous song on here and is the standout.

Enjoyable album with some classics

i feel like theres nothing crazy special about this album. like its definitely something but nothing really stood out to me personally. also i didnt finish listening to it

Fun, but not much my vibe.

No. 134 liked it. good background music

This is a solid album and I enjoyed it more than i thought I would after the first song. Paul Simon does this talk sing thing that I wasn’t really a fan of when the album started and then it started to grow on me as the album went on. I think a strong point of the album is the sonics and all of the cultural inspiration that can be heard. The album really grew on me in the second half and I found myself bopping around to it.

Better than i thought it would be....

Love the fretless bass. There is some interesting resources, but overall this country-funk style isn't really my thing.

I had this CD way back in the day and listened to it quite a bit for a while. It was unique and fun at the time but it's not something I kept going back to. Certainly not as good and rich as some of the old Simon and Garfunkel tunes.

One classic song that I knew, which was joyful to hear. A pleasant listen.

nvm not my taste but ehh

I mean it's ok.

Mid at best with come catchy songs for sure. But, the people on here crying about cultural appropriation are hilarious - ship has sailed schmohawks, we're all tired of hearing it.

Cool fusion of styles... grew on me more as it went along.

At first I tried to place where I’ve heard his voice before and then you can call me Al started playing and I knew!! This album was goid

Alright easy listening (?). Sounds like other Paul Simon to me but with a heavy dose of African music as well. I've nothing bad to say about his music, but it's never grabbed my attention.

Not my type of music, but it made me feel I was inside a movie

interesting African sounds

Message in a Bottle is classic!! I didn’t think I’d like this album though but was pleasantly surprised. Definitely would listen again.

pov you are racist white boy on the tropical island of joy and whimsey and cultural appropriation

Fin album, smešno mi što ima neku random pesmu iz kralja lavova. Idalje, album nije nešto specijalan, ima jednu jaku pesmu i to je to. Svako jutro mi je lagaanoo prošlo uz ovaj album tkd ocena je 3,75/5 aliii neću ostaviti 4 :'(

I like it, but don't love it

Vampire Weekend influence?

Props to PS for so effectively shaking off the 60's folk vibe Quite enjoyed listening to this again - not my usual style, but it has a fun energy

my parents would enjoy this

Hm. Really want to like it. A 3-4.

Sfeerig. Veel liedjes die ik kende eigenlijk. Maar niet allemaal bangers. Diamonds on the sole of her shoe was de beste

Not my style, but I always enjoy Paul Simon

Easy to listen to, a couple of classics but not something I’d play regularly

I've been meaning to listen to this for a while. I've always liked You Can Call Me Al and there are a few Paul Simon songs that I've liked over the years. He's a great musician with a diverse range of influences which come across clearly in this album. It's just a little too upbeat for me, but great nonetheless. 3/5 You Can Call Me Al is a fun track and it's an easy listen, but just a little too upbeat for me.

It lost me on some song, it gain me on others

I appreciated this but feel like Paul could have put a bit more welly in it. Like how about some more expression and variation in the vocals? I do just wanna shoutout the bass in You Can Call Me Al, like a minute before the end because that little groove gave me life.

With some africans

This is the kind of album that feels like it was over in 33 minutes. You think I just put this on, how can it be over already. Very cool album. Will always remind of 2nd grade because my teacher played you can call me al and dont worry be happy all the time.

Hmmm, I really like Paul Simon's lyrics and his tunes are great, I just don't really get on with the feel of this album, there are a few songs that are alright, but a lot of it just is there. I keep getting told by everyone that this is a classic etc etc, but I just don't love it. It's ok at best (beyond those few tracks). Part of wants to understand the hype, part of me wants to be contrary and hate it. Most of me is indifferent to a lot of it. It popularised the idea of world music which I find to be a bit of a naff term and made me sit through hours of music I wasn't too fond of on jools Holland. Meh.

I think it's I great album. I know it since childhood. As a less experienced listener, I tend to focus on the "world music" side of it. Going back to it today makes me realize that the power of this album is the quality of the songs themselves. The moments where the songwriting isn't great and relay on the African production are quite weak. But most of the album is written very well. Under African skies is more beautiful than I remembered. Less strong tracks are homeless, gumboots and that was your mother. Almost all others are between good and great. If a younger me was reviewing this album, it would get I 5. But I'm rating it now, knowing there are better projects in Paul's catalog. A 3.5

ALBUM #2 🤠 02/01/26 folk is deffo not my genre, the only songs i really liked here were: The Boy In the Bubble You Can Call Me Al its too american im sorry

It was good

Having seen this live there is something slightly flat about the recording that doesn't quite capture it properly 3.5*

Not really my jam. I thought a lot of the African influence was neat, some good bass solos. I can see my mom liking this as a teenager.

Less bad than I remember but I still think it’s a bombastic vanity project. Some tracks are great, others are fine, but I won’t revisit this on purpose.

Great music for dancing with your baby

I'm so very mixed here. On one hand, I love something about these bright sounds with burbling bass and plucked guitar that make me think of some of the world entries in this list (e.g., Songhoy Blues). On the other, there is something distinctively cheesy feeling about this all that makes me feel like it lacks a certain genuine nature. Like even the bass burble feels like a caricature in many cases (especially on You Can Call Me Al). But then You Can Call Me Al actually plays and I can't help but love this song. I could see where someone could love this record, but for me it is just fine. 3

Paul Simon albums are funny cause it's mostly just him talking with instruments playing behind him. This one was mostly nothing special for me although an easy listen. You Can Call Me Al will never not get me going though. And the last song was a big ol' bop.

This was just alright... He got pretty quirky and while some people can pull it off I don't feel like this does. Pretty meh 3.

segundo album desse mano aqui o.O FAVS (top 3): graceland, you can call me al, under african skies mençoes honrosas: the boy in the bubble, that was your mother, homeless ah, legalzinho nota final: 3.5/5

Not my favorite

A jolly vacation vibe overall 6.8/10

not my vibe

The album is alright. It's nice background music, but nothing more for me.

3.5/5 Good, but not for me. Clearly a direct ancestor of Vampire Weekend. Drum recordings are some of the worst I've ever heard put to vinyl

It was fine. Probably won't listen to this album again. Has some songs that are nostalgic that I was glad to listen to again.

Toe tapping. Easy listening. Multi-hit.

Fun album, a few good songs, but overall just average musical entertainment.

up beat could dance and laugh to

I wanted to hate, but You Can Call Me Al is seriously a bopper. The rest of it is fine.

Sorryyyy er jo ganske fan

Not really for me but consistent in its quality. Would be a good soundtrack for going on an adventure with someone I love but idk when I'd throw this on otherwise.

After reading the wiki I think I feel both sides of the argument. It’s good that he worked with all these South African musicians and shined a lil light on that part of the world but also he made hugggge commercial successes by appropriating music that white western audiences were not comfortable with if it had come from a Black person. THATS MY TAKE!

A complicated album to review. Some magnificent instrumentation, especially in the rhythms and fretless bass playing. But Simon's twee storytelling and thin voice just doesn't mesh well overall and hinders more tracks than it compliments (You Can Call Me Al and Diamonds... being clear exceptions).

You Can Call Me Al, I Know What I Know, Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes. It was alright, it didn't stand out to me that much. Worth a relisten in the future since I feel like my opinion could change.

Like it 3/5

Good solid album, great songwriting split between a 3 and a 4. Worth another listen

160626 23:50 3.5

The fuck is this dude on about?

Perfectly pleasant

some good tunes. better than i thought

Look, it is not bad, but if I'd rather listen to South African artists than Paul Simon's cheap imitation.

Pas vraiment mon truc

meh

yea

enjoyable listen, but didn't stand out to me

the songs were long asf lol 😂 but I enjoy listening to it as background music !

Graceland was a perfectly fine album, I enjoyed most of the tracks. I like Simon & Garfunkel so I figured I’d enjoy this album but it was a lot different in sound than them as a group. Nothing particularly jumped out at me but I did like it.

very folk-y song, i hear some synth action going on, i didnt know the synth was even invented back then, lots of instruments and also surprisingly prominent bass, vocals sound as if i'm listening to the lion king or something

Paul took it to the limit the "USA for Africa" idea, recording the full album embedded with african spirits in the air (and music)

80er, teils Country Style, gute Laune, .. You can call me Al (..if you be my bodyguard).. Afrikanische Einflüsse, Gospel, Chor

Wasn't feeling this one at first, but it grew on me a lot by the end. I think my appreciation for Vampire Weekend helped me out here.

summer album def was good at the start and the end the African refs were rlly good to just kinda random lol

I liked the African collaboration. Call Me Al in the middle of it through me off. A solid album but not something I would come back to regularly

Normalde dinlemediğim bi tarzdı ama dinlerken sıkılmadım

i like diamonds on the sole of her shoes

- mukava pehmeä soundi tällä levyllä - you can call me al on sarjassamme biisi jonka nimeä kukaan ei tiedä mutta jonka kaikki on kuullu - kasari kuuluu tällä levyllä vahvasti, hyvällä tavalla - on tää paree ku simon & garfunkelin levyt mitä on tullu vastaan

It was alright, better towards the end of the album but overall an Alright listen.

Im 50/50 on this one here. Simon is a great writer and vocalist but half of this feels like white guy kumbaya. Like hes using funk slap bass and traditional drums and it all feels out of place. It just doesnt fit in my head. Oil and water type. You can call me al and Graceland are the standouts. Shout out to the boomwhacker on al. What a weird instrument that i never would have thought id see beyond the 2nd grade. It has it in some respects and its wildly off base in others. Thats the short and long of it.

- The appropriation and entering apartheid SA is problematic, especially given that the album isn’t meant to be a political FU to apartheid - it’s just supposed to “bring this music to light” - so that feels weak, at best. The possible plagiarism is also concerning. - Why would anyone use that bass sound? - I like a handful of songs on here despite the annoying bass, lol, and repeated listens helped me like the album more. - That said, the chorus of Graceland really irritates me - the verses are nice, but it’s ruined by the chorus. Honestly, this is how I feel about a bunch of the songs on the album - super busy with instrumental/vocal elements that I find chaotic and/or annoying (e.g.,The screeching vocals on I Know What I Know and horns on Gumboots and The Boy In The Bubble, the sudden oomba oomba in Under African Skies that’s not sung by a South African, but Linda Ronstadt, lol, the honkey tonk guitar on the final song, the entire That Was Your Mother). Also, what’s with the weird fade out ending on Gumboots?

Liked Boy in the Bubble and Crazy Love well enough but it felt a little forced when Simon leaned more heavily into the African influences

I first listened to this album on a road trip with Sarah and Katie Watson as we were coming back from Leavenworth in December 2025. It was much more upbeat and understandable that the previous album we just listened to by Bruce Springsteen. This album is upbeat and has a variety of collaborations with harmonies from Ladysmith Black Mambazo providing a good variety which kept me interested. Anytime accordion is included in a major album is a win for all the polka enthusiasts. Some songs actually sounded like a polka tune.

i couldnt get into it thef rist song jsut really wasnt for me. It maybe couldve been amazing but i couldnt see it to the end

This reminds of getting ready in high school. Not normally my kind of music but this is pretty good. Not sure if it’s better than the Black Album.

This is such a okay album. Totally washed over me and inoffensive in quite an offensive way.

2 and a half

Perfectly fine. But I think it's overrated

I want to love Paul Simon, but something about the upbeat sound of the album just leaves me at a remove, I can’t seem yo get past the jingly-jangly sound. I know it’s supposed to be a phenomenal album

This is ok but I've pretty much have decided that I don't need to have any Paul Simon solo albums in my collection.

I use some of these songs on yoga Playlist. I liked listening to the album all the way through. Mellow easy listening

Eh, it was fine but honestly I think it's kind of overrated.

The whole album felt like each track was leading up to You Can Call Me Al, then just wound down.

With how classic "You Can Call Me Al" is, I was figuring to find a lot more to sink my teeth into on this album. There was a cohesive strand running through, and I found the experimentation to be quite intriguing, but ultimately I was left disappointed more than anything. On a scale of 1-5, with the mid-point being absolute balanced neither exceptional nor useless, I found it to be a safe 2.5/5.

A good album that didn’t particularly resonate with me

Good album. Probably couldn’t be made today.

Cool African-inspired rhythms; interesting lyrics; it's one of those background, easy-listening albums; could be a bit boring at times

I feel like it wasn’t Paul Simon’s best. A lot of the songs were nice, but never hit that head-bobbing hook that his other tracks will. I mean, I’m inflating the score because “You Can Call Me Al” is one of the greatest songs of all time and I feel comfortable with that, but I think this will be my lowest Paul Simon rating.

Dzisiaj oficjalnie zakonczylam staz, zaczyna sie weekend, jest piatek godzina 13 i jest finito, gumboots calkowicie pasuje do takiego moodu az chce sie usmiechac, i know what i know daje ten sam klimacik i w sumie jak tak slucham to wszytkie daja bardzo pozytywny 80’s vibe takiej imprezy collage girls, ogolnie nie jest zly ale mnie nudzi, kazda piosenka brzmi bardzo podbnie ma podobny vibe i po prostu czuje ze zadna do mnie nie przemawia na tyle zeby dodac ja do polubionych utworow

Vissa mer catchy låtar som ”The boy in the bubble” och ”You can call me al”. Snygga features på resterande låtar och fångar upp en stor del av kulturen från tredje världen. Dock inte riktigt min smak, men uppskattar innovationen

stick to folk bro please. i don't even think this is cultural appropriation, its just fucking boring.

good album just not my taste

It’s very catchy, some songs more than others but, that guitar makes me want to drive for a very long time in the daytime when the weather is just right and the sun feels good in the breeze.

So far, I've liked the song "I know what I know" the most. But I also really enjoyed the musicals and I think the drums(?) in the song "... diamonds on the sole of her shoes." Also really liked "Under African Skies." that definitely has to be my favourite from this album. It's beautiful. Currently listening to homeless. The vocals are ethereal and angelic. This one is good too.

An album that got better as it went along. The synth bass tones in the beginning really didn’t work for me, but the rhythms in the second half of the album redeemed it.

S'ok. Not my thing, but tunes from when I was a teen so some recollections there

the boy in the bubble- 5 graceland- 5 i know what i know- 5 gumboots- 6 or 7 diamonds on the soles of her shoes- 5 you can call me al- never knew the name of this song. 5 or 6 under african skies- 5 homeless- 5 crazy love vol ii- 5 that was your mother- 5 all around the world or the myth of fingerprints- 5

Not as good as Still Crazy After All These Years.

Dodododo

It was fun music, but it's just not my jam.

i'm so sorry, but the story behind this album and the musicianship involved is much more interesting to me than the album itself. this feels kind of bizarre to say-- and i didn't think i'd find myself saying it for our first paul simon record-- i think he really did need art garfunkel. i know he's an asshole, but those two together wrote music that so much better (to me; i am but one person) than paul simon's original stuff. this album got soooo much recognition, but minus a couple of songs, i just don't see the staying power in my own personal library. i like paul simon as a moody, mystical songwriter with an occasional upbeat track, but this whole album sounds like it could be played at the beginning of a late 80s romcom where the quirky girl and the stuffy guy haven't found each other yet but it's obvious that their lives are less fulfilling than they will be when they connect. it just isn't for me, cool history besides.

His only solo effort I liked, Greta album of the time, but hasn’t aged well

Second Paul Simon album and the last in his included discography. It's been a while since the last Paul Simon - 130 albums, to be precise. I've been busy since then, however, as I've rolled two Simon & Garfunkel albums in the wait for his return. Can't say I'm sold on Simon's band or his solo career, to be honest. Bridge Over Troubled Water and Bookends had some decent moments, though I can't say the same for his self-titled debut album - I remember nothing of it. Maybe. Maybemaybemaybemaybe this album will be the one to win me over, though I must admit that the odds aren't in his favour. That being said, I am favourable to these late-career albums because of their relative scarcity on the list, so there's that going for it. Uh oh, this was pretty alright. I'm having a faith crisis right now. I couldn't have been wrong about the previous albums, could I? The African sound was a big surprise. It wasn't immediately evident to me while I was listening to the first two tracks, though it really smacks you over the head with the third track and onwards. I never thought I'd care for African music, but it works pretty alright here. Simon's sensitive vocals are paired nicely with the laid-back sound, making for a soothing listen. There wasn't anything in here which really hooked me and I thought the gimmick lost it's luster as it went on, though to be generally alright is a huge compliment in my book. "The Boy in the Bubble" is decent. I like the bassy sound, and Paul Simon's vocals are well-matched with the flow of the song. That music video sure is something else, however. The title track is decent, too. It's impressive how laid-back the song is while also having a frenetic energy coming from the bass guitar. "Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes" has a good bassline, and I especially like the flittering guitars that appear intermittently. Book time. Created during the apartheid controversy. Blends African music with Simon's own sensibilities. Nothing else in there besides that. Wikipedia says that this album is Simon's most successful release, won a Grammy, was a critical slam dunk and helped to popularise African music in the West. Yeah, this is a strong pick if I've ever seen one. I cosign this inclusion.

This is a very Paul Simon album. Like all his solo work sounds similar to me so this is just like, yeah it's a Paul Simon album. I prefer him with Garfunkel personally.

I'm going to ignore the political, racist and cultural appropriating hullabaloo surrounding this album. Tricky, I agree. That leaves the question of whether I am enjoying what I hear. I don't think I do, particularly. I don't hate it much either. A middling 3/5 then.

I like it more every time I listen to it.

Yllättävänkin mukavan kuuloinen levy tämä Simonin soololevy. Ei oo tullu sen duohommien ulkopuolelle hirveesti vilkuiltua, mutta kelpo platta. Mielenkiintoisia soitin viritelmiä ja jopa etnisiä fiboja. Ei kuitenkaan ihan neloseen nosteta

Ihan letkeää meininkiä ja poljentaa.
