I think this album is kind of bad. The beat of it was okay but the lyrics and how they were sung weren't great. 1/5
Pretty much everything I hate in music, but one cool song. 1.5 stars
"Wilson" was my favorite "song". I just found most of it really boring with the stock beats and piano stabs. Maybe it didn't sound so boring in 1991, but I feel like at least the Pet Shop Boys had worn out this sound by then. 1.5 stars
Not that great outside of the one cover song
Definitely not my thing
I bet Neil young hates this shit
“The album was recorded in a style which drew on the club culture and house music of the time, but also incorporates the group's characteristic love of 1960s pop, with tracks also bridged by samples from films or by short songs.” Sounds terrible. Is terrible.
Nah
Such a forgettable album, I’m not sure if I actually listened to it or not.
Actively annoying
Maybe OK to work to because it has no emotion
Tentativa forçada de distribuir alegria. Seria nota zero pela versão da música do Neil Young.
No thanks
Weird... slow... sad...
Incredibly bland. The kinda songs that play 10 minutes into the credits of a movie nobody saw. What a drag
Not sure what these guys were trying to accomplish, but they failed.
Only Love Can Break Your Heart Nothing Can Stop Us
Welcome to the most boring dentist office
Seriously does not need to be on this list.
Boring sounds. Boring music. Boring lyrics.
Myönnän, että he ovat bonganneet jotain uutta Neilistä. Mutta tämä levy: miten näin kevyet biitit voivat muovautua näin raskaaksi objektiksi?
Absolutely sucks. Can't see how this made it on the list. Experimental unlistenable garbage.
Painful
Gud så tråkigt
I 100% did not have to listen to this album before I died.
Jeg er med Claus, jeg synes sgu den her var kedelig!
Virkelig 90'er og virkelig ikke mig.
Why is this in the top 1001 songs. How do you call a replay of movie clips or tv clip a song. This was not enjoyable.
not my cup of tea
The first song was promising. Then the rest is just the basic electronic that is apparently mandatory on the 1001 list at least once per week.
bored long before the end of this album
There is really nothing here.
I wanted to like this one....but found the overly done electric keyboard repeats flat (I wanted more sound depth with real instruments) and too long.
I'm trying to build a house, not work in a salon. Silly French salon background music.
Lyrically it is very repetitive, which I do not like. The music is pretty repetitive as well. Its like a short looped lofi.
This inspired me to revisit an electronic subgenre rather than listen to this record.

First listen Saved 0/15
I don't like this.

Apparently their biggest hit was their cover of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" - I think it's dreadful. As for the rest of this alternative dance / trip hop album, "Carnt Sleep" wasn't bad, but I wasn't impressed by "Nothing Can Stop Us" which apparently was a hit single in 1991.
Ida synes den er jette bra
What in the world
This album makes my penis soft.
Kicking off with that Neil Young cover was a very turbulent start. Completely tone deaf as to the original-- and not an improvement in my opinion. It didn't get any better from there. This one wasn't worth it for me.
Non!
Tuve que llegar al final del disco para encontrar un tema que me gustó un poco, "London belongs to me".
Only a few hits
Let me tell you a little story about French club/house music: NO!
Couldn't even get through the whole album - gave it a good try, though. Made it about halfway through until I couldn't take it anymore. Ultimately, the vapid, overproduced sound didn't draw me. The whole album very much reminded me of bad filler music used in early 2000s rom-coms.
Couple okay songs. Most of the album just fell flat for me.
Uninteresting indie dance(?) music. Some sampling. Some tracks make a nice background "chill" vibe. *yawn*
Hasn’t aged very well Awful … vapid … tedious
Did not enjoy, very repetitive and boring.
Fucking awful. Complete shit.
I'm not versed enough in electronic music to know if or why this album is significant. I do know the first track sounded like a not-so-great mashup of Neil Young and Ace of Base. Things got better after that, but not remarkably better. There were moments that got locked in a fun, sunny groove. The singer's voice is not what I'm looking for in a poppy dancy music experience. Maybe we'll all hear this album again at a very mellow outdoor post-pandemic rave. Probably not. D

i liked a few songs but it felt like a bore listening to the album
I was confused and bored by electro/pop/house/trance what british nonsense
