I like a couple tracks but others are like being in a primary school music class.

All Ratings (1007)

Good groove but long winded and repetitive.

This album confirms that I don't like Springsteen. The album on the whole is like a soundtrack to a bad musical.

Not a jazz fan but the talent here is undeniable.

Great soundtrack, less great album. Ghost Song is cool.

Some good tracks but overall it's just okay.

An excellent example of album oriented rock and a real showcase of Queen's differing sound.

Never heard of this band before. As 80's pop goes, I quite enjoyed this... Maybe 50% of the time. Very hit and miss. Bonny and Desire As are very good.

Two good tracks. Not the best that hip hop has to offer.

Not a country fan but found this enjoyable.

I do like some Genesis, but this album is a bit of a marathon to get through.

There's a reason Abba are pop legends, this is one of them. Best song: Knowing Me, Knowing You

Makes for good background music, a bit samey right through.

Uninteresting throughout. Couldn't wait to finish the album. Track I came closest to liking was Ai Du.

A very decent debut with instantly recognisable sound, but I gave Brothers in Arms a 4.5 and this isn't better than that. Sultans of Swing has to be one of the best 'guitar-rock' songs ever recorded though.

Is it good? Not really, but it's wacky and different which gives it a little something.

Like ambient music from a 90's video game. Not something to sit and listen to unless you like being bored out off your mind.

This is probably a 5-star if you're into country. Nice to hear some Dolly that isn't 9-5 or Joline and there were a couple tracks I somewhat enjoyed, but over all it's just not for me.

A bit like Tim Burton's Boogeyman.

This surprised me. I thought it was brilliant. Some songs a bit like Blur and hints of Oasis. A true 90's Britpop sound. 4.5 rounded up

Every song is hit

Funky. 3.5

Never listened to Ghostface before, except in Wu-Tang, but will be again in the future. Good couple of remixes on the expanded edition with Ice Cube and Kanye as well.

Pretty boring, particularly for a 1hr record.

Kinda like the Furious 5 but not as good. 2.5

Struggling to come to terms with the idea that people like this guy's music and that I've listened to two albums now. 1.5

I like a couple tracks but others are like being in a primary school music class.

It's barely music. Once again another album on list for the sake of one recognisable song.

The length affects this album greatly. Fair play making that many songs for one album though, even if most are garbage.

Nearly a three, but there's some rubbish on here.

7/10

Strong start but the latter half was a bit meh. Awful cover of Comfortably Numb.

As Christmas music goes, this is about as good as it gets. 4 stars because I generally don't like Christmas

If it weren't for Lauryn Hill I'd probably give this 2⭐ There's a reason the three big singles feature her heavily. Didn't care for the skits.

Difficult to rate an album where one of the four songs is 13 minutes and mostly sound effects.

4.5

Strong start made me wish I was 80+ but it became slightly stale. Would listen again though because, hey, surf is fun.

Don't believe the hype.

It's good, but I know II is better.

Nothing on Short People.

Is there a better collection of riffs in thrash metal?

Bizarre.

I feel like someone should have said "Hey, you should give Illinois by Sufjan Stevens a listen" to me by now.

Feel like I listened to the same song 15 times.

Still on the fence about live albums being on the list. Might as well throw greatest hits in as well. That said, this a great live record but I don't know if I need multiple takes of the same songs included.

Struggled to interpret this as music.

I really don't know what to make of this. Sounds like an audial equivalent of what I expect a snuff film to be like.

Short and sweet.

If you like listening to one bar repeatedly for nearly an hour, then this is for you. Might as well be called Tragic Song of Life.

2.5 but rounding down

Kinda looses it's way half way through. Maybe more of a 3.5.

This was like the male equivalent of the Mariah Carey album I just had.

Heh, Willie Colon

This made me feel like I was losing brain cells.
