A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

1-Star Albums (8)

All Ratings (186)

Enjoyed the hits I'd heard before.

Melodically unsatisfying, rhythmically bonkers. Interesting mix, vocals not at the forefront on some songs. The second to last song was surprising in a good way.

Punk

Reminded me of Telescreen

Solid samba

Jazzy, vaguely christmasy, a little sad, not my jam

Didn't age well in my opinion

Smooth, and just ok

Honestly fantastic

Cocktail party background music, heavy saxophone use

I prefer Room on Fire

Fantastic jazz

The switch to electric saved this for me

It's a mood

A master class in the genre

It was fine, lost a star with the last few

Some hits, interesting throughout

Basically Arctic Monkeys

Solid yacht rock

It's a vibe that I don't think I'm ever on the wavelength of

Too many choices made about timbre that grated my ears for me to ever want to listen again

Take on me is the high point

I wouldn't be mad if Paul Weller was playing live at a bar I walked into. I would be annoyed if I had to shout and strain for my friends to hear me over this perfectly passable background music.

Yacht rock through and through

Discount Oasis

Technically a collection of songs. The definition of soft.

Top notch ambient

Sub par from the boss

Awesome first half

Just not my jam

Not my jam

Too many filler tracks to be more than 3 stars. Some absolute bangers though

It's a Sin

They're not all hits, but the ones that are...
