Music from this album, for me, should be restricted to a few songs sprinkled throughout a larger rock/80s playlist. This got repetitive and the lyrics (though admittedly incomprehensible to me 80% of the time without looking them up) are just cheesy and cringey as hell. Nostalgic sound of my childhood, but not something I think I'd go back to as a complete listen.
How it Makes Me Feel: Like I'm sitting in my pediatric dentist's office waiting room in 1983.
Dancing-around-the-house-with-the-cat funky music. Some good grooves and great bass. Not an album I'd listen to as a whole again but a lot of this works for upbeat housework playlists.
New-to-me artist. A little funk, a little blues, a bit of Joni Mitchell mixed with Tracy Chapman. Really glad I got to listen to this.
Not into this kind of falsetto, nor this kind of soulful funk. Will not listen again.
Mood: Dancing around the kitchen with the cat, solely to annoy it, while cooking up something intricate and slow on a Sunday afternoon.
I'm more into the 40s sound of big band so this is a little too lounge-y/Jetsons-y for my tastes but I'm not mad at it. Lil' Darlin' is excellent cool jazz.
Hated "There She Goes" in the 90s, and apparently I still hate it. Neat. Hadn't heard the rest of this album before now. I keep zoning out listening to it. It's just 90s pop rock in the background of a coffee shop to me, I think. Not bad but not particularly standing out, either.
Daft Punk did it better but D.A.N.C.E. is still fun.
Extremely underwhelming.
I can hear the history and influence in this one. Don't know that I'd ever listen to this again as a whole, but bits of it have already gone onto some playlists.
The misogynism was bad then and it's jarring now. The skits are cringe as hell. The threats of violence are eye roll inducing. But the music is great, the flow is great, the production is great. A snapshot in time.
This felt try-hard when I was 25 and it still does 20 years later.
I don't know what's happening but I love it.
I may be one of the only 45 year olds in the US that hadn't actually owned or listened to this entire album before. This mostly holds up; the classics are still great and the remainder is fine.
I tolerate one Radiohead song and it isn't on this album.
Still sounds like the year I graduated high school. Some classics on here but the other B-sides still do a lot of nothing for me.
This is sort of interesting from a historic perspective but it's not a great album and barely even sounds like what the Stones later become.
This is kinda shit but also kinda fun and I will never listen to it again.
Only a handful of songs from this album are available to listen to on Spotify as of this writing so I can't really make a judgement here.
I don't hate this and I thought I might. Solid music for cleaning to.
Music to examine your mortality by. Cohen has never done it for me but this is an experience. I don't think I'd ever listen to this again but I'm not mad that I did.
A historical landmark but a lot of it hasn't aged well. Recognize what it did for/to hip hop and rap but not my thing.
Ok, I was bored in the first half but the second half really picks up and gets way more interesting.
A couple interesting things in here but this is mostly boring and annoying to me.
