Haha I kind of know this one already :p I go back to it every once in a while; homemade dynamite, hard feelings/loveless and sober were in my 2017 top songs on Spotify. I just love this album a lot, the sound and also the images that it created in my head upon many listens.

Started off really nicely this could totally be my thing. Oh yep I’m into this. Well after 4 songs I’m still liking it but kind of had my fill lol I don’t mind one song to change things up but an entire album is a little too much. I still think I’m enjoying it. I can listen to this. It doesn’t particularly do that much for me but it sounds good. THE RASPY SOUND AT THE END OF BOOTLEG ALT TAKE IS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST THING IVE EVER HEARD IN A SONG. OMG. Bye. It loses a star just cause of that lol. Idrc about multiple versions of a song on an album, and I’d rather just have a live album as its own thing. They probably have those so, idk idc about the live versions here. Crazy otto is nice wonder why there’s no regular version here at least. Unless I’m missing something. It’s just instrumental apparently. Well this was nice it’s a 3.5 for me but can’t have that so it’s a 3 for the annoying bootleg ending lol.

Not liking this so far. Dont really like the sound, dont like the lyrics (dislike them aesthetically and the overall message), dont like the dudes voice. Its like U2 but even worse. sorry if they precede them im sure theres good reason theyre in the list but i cant get into this it sounds generic, maybe it wasnt at the time of release but i actively dont care about this. was very annoyed while listening and it was difficult to get through.

I like about 5 songs of theirs let’s see if some are in this album. I know that the lead singer is annoying lol. Nice start. Dont think i know any song in the track list, by name at least. Dudes sadddd but i genuinely liked 'i want the one i cant have'; actually i liked most songs in sound but i couldnt undestand that much so i put the lyrics on, cant know if what i get from it that i like is intended or just my best interpretation but isnt that always the case maybe not to this is extent though, some feelings are pretty immature even if theyre worded sophisticatedly lol i wonder how old songwriter/s were at the time. Not the cow sounds lmao. Just googled Morrissey vegan (vegan was the first suggestion) and I’m having a blast just reading headlines and previews of articles. Again music music was ok at times but I can’t connect it’s not my thing

No idea who they are. Nice start. Oh? Nice imperfect voice. Lyrics are meh :( first song is so long ugh. Second song i dont like. Some songs in the middle sound nice: war on war, jesus etc, ashes of american flags, im the man who loves you, pot kettle black. A 2 cause the songs/parts of songs i dislike i dont absolutely hate. I can say i like some parts of it but i wouldnt even replay those songs i mentioned to reconsider. Some of those parts i like remind me of some chill parts in rainbows which obviously came out later.

super pleasant ah. brazilian singer fits right in, he participated in the songwriting for like half the songs too im too lazy to look up more though thats just whats on the spotify credits say. his singing alone is a nice addition. honestly i have to say its not my thing at all but i really liked it, sounds really nice and i can see myself coming back to it when in a particular mood lol maybe. only thing i don't like is the occasional ding ding ding sounds that someone's making??? is it antonio doing that orrr?? the two last tracks are interesting, normally i dont want to listen the same song twice in the same album but this is just short bits stitched together maybe i kind of lost track at some point but i was enjoying still, felt like little behind the scenes moments.

ok better be good cause its the longest album i got so far lol. reissue is not on spotify but og album has all songs minus the bonus track so i could look that one up on youtube if i care enough. its whatever so far. dont hate it yet. its nice enough bg music at least, there's enough variety in sound and song themes that im not bored yet. im surprised im okay with it still 8 tracks in. no standout songs though, maybe stroke it noel. nature boy, till the end of the day, dream lover was a nice 3 song streak. looked up the bonus track on spotify it was on a different comp album or something. its the most different song to the others i actually prefer the album without it. i kinda liked the album overall? not sure id go back to it but i did save the tracks i mentioned.

i know a couple of their popular songs and i like dazed and confused. from this tracklist i only know immigrant song. which is so short btw. doesnt do much for me. second song: meh sound and i dislike the lyrics. synth at the end was delicious. LOOOOVE how it carried over into the next song. i like 'celebration day' a lot better in all possible ways. song fades out which is okay but ill be thinking about the previous transition forever. OH i do know this song too ('since ive been loving you'), love it. nice. love a long intro when its this good. next song is good too it was just the second song really that i didnt care about and even then the ending was cool. overall album is very listenable cause i like chill rock songs but i dont think its all that. didnt blow my mind but its good and perfectly enjoyable. i added 'since ive been loving you' to my playlist for songs over 7 plus minutes :)

Nirvana
It’s about time I listened to nirvana I think. From this track list i know Smells like teen spirit and Come as you are. I quite like both so I have pretty high expectations. SLTS is a banger. Album name drop :o nice. Second track is still a vibe. Omg are they dissing a certain type of fan or am i reading it completely wrong. Could just be about being immature i guess. If this album continues like this it might be a 5 im really into it. Second gun mention. This album goes a lot harder than i thought it would. Lithium is a bit meh. Some more questionable lyrics in Polly. First 4 tracks were really strong. Following 3 were whatever. Drain you is trying hard to be gross but it's okay, i still like it and its lyrics. All songs give me something to think about so that's cool whether i like them or nah. Lounge act is okay. Stay away was ???. LOVE Something in the way, im obsessed with his barely audible singing for the verse. The second half of the last song is really nice.
Ah I'm really glad i listened to this album, at times i really loved the lyrics, might give it another listen just for that. About the sound, its okay, not what im normally into but its pretty accessible for someone who doesnt like a heavier sound, harsh vocals here and there but they're not the norm.

song lengths look fun. i like the start! could be the soundtrack to an action scene in a weird trippy horror movie. tbh the only movie like that that i know is suspiria (1977) haha. makes me feel a little paranoid lol. i suppose with the slow down we enter the second part? REALLYYYY NICE VOCALS thank god! wow if it continues to be this fun it might be my second 5/5 (first one being an album i already knew and loved). okay, new guitar, change up, third part. yeah this is going to be the longest song in my playlist for songs over 7 minutes long. lyrics are really cool too im digging everything. UGH THIS IS SO FUN. so good. there's some sounds that remind me of pink floyd which is pretty much the only band ive listened to from the 70s so. this is from before their hits though. ugh im kinda sad the 20 minute song ended :( OH second song is quite different but still has the same flair. so funny that the follow up to the 20 minute song is 1:50 min long. im obsessed with the piano here. a lil unsettling. do you guys think these guys are just atheists or are they anarchists too. honestly i cant imagine this was very popular so shout out to whoever decided to include this, it was worth it to sit through 20 or so albums that felt absolutely pointless just to get to listen to this one. hopefully theres more like this in their discography :))

hmm. am i going to like this? nice voice. i thiiiink its a woman. yeah it is. this first song is nice but im afraid i might get bored quick. lets see. i love the vibe provided by whatever instrument it is playing at 2:32. her voice reminds me of someone but i cant place it. aw this sounds so nice but im bored :( why am i like this lol. okay i take that back i got into it after a bit and my mood now matches this album lol. miss chatelaine: this song is making me so happy i want to cry lol. wash me clean: her voice sounds so full (?) and comforting :( i teared up. lmao. "shadows now curtain the moon, but faith swears it will shine again soon." idk why i got so into this. typically i wouldnt like this type of music i think. im done and i feel so exposed lol. i feel like i just finished up a long crying session xd anyways uhm i only processed about 1% of this album and i need to listen to it 99 more times to get better acquainted with it. starting my first replay as i finish writing this. saying that i love this album is putting it lightly :)) <3

doesn't look like their popular songs are on this album. this list is allergic to hits. look at the song lengths though they were ahead of their time. initial reaction: oh i can't do this. i will power through though it's just 28 minutes long. there might be one good song, you never know. and it will be worth it for that. sounds pretty stupid so far lol. 'dance, dance, dance' is not awful. 'please let me wonder' is okay and so is 'i'm so young', i suppose their chill songs are okay, its some of the upbeat ones that got on my nerves kinda. dumb lyrics in all of them though lol. i cant say i liked this but hey the second half of the album was passable.

i like the group name and album name. first song started quickly. its okay. the lyrics in the second song lol. i quite like the sound too. liking the third song, second beard mention lol. okay its over. i enjoyed this. it was quite interesting. there were some weird sounds here and there that i appreciated. decent chance i'll come back to it, but im glad i got to listen to it even if i dont. i definitely got more into it as it went on.
fave tracks: fuzzy birds, if you dont want me to destroy you(!!!), mario man. didnt love: bad behaviour (last minute or so is so good but i hated the bad bad bad bad behaviour chanting).
honestly im just gonna give this a five loll vocals are not annoying, they go perfectly with the music, the music is nice, changes up enough to keep me entertained, lyrics are good and fun, and when silly, consciously so, idk i ended up loving this.

first song: not awful, but boring. ofc i recognize the second song. always fun to listen to slurs in hit songs. third song is another popular one. fourth song: ive heard this one too, and its the first one i like. saxophone is so good. fifth song is okay too, almost like a lullaby. sixth song is pretty nice, wasnt expecting this reggae feel lol. this album must be super popular because i feel like ive heard most of these songs on the radio. dont care about the seventh track. eight song is okay. lets see if the title track is good or nah. i wasnt feeling the buildup but it turned out okay kinda. well im done. it was okay i guess, didnt feel strongly about anything here, didnt love or hate anything.

should've expected the scream from the song titles/album art. fuck them though! 32 short ish songs, streaming game on point. 'fuck shit up' is my new anthem. so funny. they were just doing whatever. from then on it's just boring rock songs with a little something different but not even close enough to be interesting. until sticky when it gets a little fun again. this was kind of a chore to listen through but whatever.

an okay start. look at me liking country (?). kinda sounds like the toy story song around 0:50 lol. okay so this happened: heard the n word, thought huh were slurs THAT acceptable in the 70s he said it so casually too, clicked on his profile and bam he made the toy story song. it's been less than 2 minutes. second song started. OH so are all songs going to remind me of toy story lol. things are mostly going over my head probably as i'm not that knowledgable in american history to get most references. a ballad now. ugh i'm bored. songs are pleasant enough but i can't wait for this to be over. at least it's shorter than you'd think given the amount of songs. it's always fun to see certain parameters align with today's trends, like song lengths here, these short songs are perfect for the streaming era lol. what the hell is naked man about lol. bizarre. it's the closest thing to a pop song so far too. well it's over, it was a bit of an interesting listen but i'm not coming back to this baybe.

hmmm. i don't know what to make of this intro. it was nice enough, let's hope the singer's voice doesn't disappoint. oh second song starts out even nicer. his voice is okay! real nice and imperfect. oh i love this song so much already. "rising up and taking back, the property of every man" uhhh lol. third song: oh so this album wants to be a 5, i see. love the instrumental tracks so far. loving the feature in 'the paris match'. oh i do not like 'a gospel' this will be a 4 after all. also dislike the 'strength of your nature'. the the last couple of tracks are better but not mind blowing like the first seven.

title track brings back memories of playing guitar hero in like 2007 or 2008. this song is so good. look at the gap in streaming numbers between this song and the other album tracks. on song number 2, yeah this is perfectly listenable for me. singer's voice is super nice and music is interesting enough to keep me interested*. song 3 has so many little things i love and cool switch ups and it kind of sounds like a song from a musical lol. oh next song does as well. oh it's just an interlude. lyrics aren't that idiotic or if they are, fittingly so, i'm satisfied. i'm having a great time actually. i was in a little bit of a weird mood but thankfully this album was a lot of fun so it wasn't affected by that. it's also nice and short. it's an easy 4 baybe.

Curtis Mayfield
interesting title, this is going to be political isn't it lol. nice intro. really nice voice. oh second song's awesome too, this is going to be a 5 easily. 'if you want a good life, best look into yourself'. interesting lyrics, pretty straightforward messages but you could probably tune them out if you're not really paying attention, he sounds so calm all throughout. it's a good balance then i guess. also i love the song lengths, they feel fully realized, hate when songs that sound good end too soon or go on for too long and become diluted, here they're perfect. it was a very satisfying listen all in all. i guess the album could feel a little bit samey but it's just over half an hour long and the variety in song themes makes up for it. first three songs were my favorites but they're all pretty good. it ended it up not being quite a 5 cause 'jesus' did nothing for me but really good otherwise.

Lou Reed
got berlin some time ago. first song: still dislike his voice. music is not awful but it does nothing for me. really, really want to emphasize how much i dislike his voice and monotonous delivery. on the second song now and i appreciate when he sings a little bit louder with a little more power cause at least it's giving something, can't stand his murmuring. 'walk in the wild side' is surely a song, seems like the most popular one but i can't say i've ever heard it. huh 'satellite of love' sounded familiar, there's a remix that i still hear on the radio. i do like the remix so kudos to him for providing the base for it, hopefully it can be on spotify someday. so, i'm done. really don't dig his lyrics, which i guess is the main appeal for ppl that do like this. it gets a 2 solely because of satellite of love.

'you puny protozoa'. this whole song is too much. he's not like the other rappers. 'strangely enough i've been struck, affected by her smile' lmao. it's a short thing but my fave track was 'say your prayers'. other than that one i liked 'precisely the right rhymes'. i'm most likely not coming back to this record but his lyrics were fun, the music was boring though. 2.5.

hmmmmm idk that i'm gonna like this. ugh music is okay but his voice annoys me. i don't think these guys know how abortions work. i do like how fast paced the song is though. honestly while i don't like the sound so far (on song 3 rn) it's quite entertaining at least. can't be awful and boring both. i really dislike his tone though, or is it his accent that bothers me. so whiny. the lyrics are taking me out. 'problems': i like the lyrics, there's songs with the exact same subject matter across all decades, funny how we're/life is always about the same stuff. the f slur used to be so popular in music. i don't feel like i've been hearing it that much in the last decade as i have since i started listening to albums from this list. did they finish up the album with a fart sound, and here i was considering giving this a 3. music was okay though repetitive, his vocal performance i disliked but at least it was interesting, lyrics were fun. so, not as awful as i thought it would be initially but i can't say my brain enjoyed this. it's like a movie that's kinda interesting maybe but it looks bad.

this is long but hey it's music i'm kinda into so i'm good. on song 2 and it seems like it's going to be pretty varied. 'i love you so much it hurts' perfectly captured the feeling of falling in love. songs so far are just lovely. my soul feels soothed. i'm afraid i got bored about 8 tracks in but it's still super pleasant music lol. it's good background music i imagine they played this at like fancy restaurants and events lol. i didn't dig as much the tracks that lean more heavily into country territory. but it's whatever, not the worst thing ever. adds more variety at least. the heavenly choir started to get a little annoying somewhere in between 'i'll never stand in your way' and 'make believe' lol. thank god it was about to end. in smaller doses and w/o paying it my utmost attention, this is gorgeous music. as most almost 2 hour long albums, it'd be better if it was 40 minutes long with just the best songs lol. 3.5.

'slow love' is okay. some songs are annoying, like 'hot thing', and others do nothing for me like 'forever in my life'. i'm bored. i had to look up who was singing 'if i was your girlfriend' it's just prince pitched up lol.

'where is yesterday': lyrics are so good, melodies are so good, the harmonies, the eerie vibe, everything i love. track 10 was a journey lol. 'no love to give' is the only song i don't totally love so far. track 13 is pretty much the same as track 5 but they switch singers, idc about different versions of the same song. well i'm done. the songs that i love make me want to give this record a 5 lol they're that good. it would be a 5 if the album was only tracks 1-11, around 40 minutes long, way tighter.
