E-PRO = meh, okay but nothing special, wouldn’t have had it as opening track. Reminds me of another song but idk what.
QUE ONDA = reminds me a bit of the salmon dance song by chem bros. Catchy but again just boring vibe.
GIRL = ahh I like this one. Happy wee tune, driving with windows down on a sunny Sunday or smth.
MISSING = I don’t like the repetitive tune and beats etc. nothing is sticking out for me and neither is this. Voice reminds me of pearl jam a bit in this also.
BLACK TAMBOURINE = sounds like he’s about to sleep while singing. V boring. Least there’s a tambourine in it.
EARTHQUAKE WEATHER = My fave so far, most lively but still chill lmao. Whimsical ending.
HELL YES = Rappy and female voice reminds me of a BMTH song.
BROKEN DREAM = ohhh I like this one. Quite sad. Again pearl jam esque. Love the instrumental parts. Makes me feel like I’m walking in a daze out of it.
SCARECROW = wee bit funky. Repetitive lyrics.
GO IT ALONE = nah nah nah nah.
FAREWELL RIDE = breaking bad theme tune who? Very cowboy western. Would be a good show song.
RENTAL CAR = shame it’s getting better as the album draws to an end.
EMERGENCY EXIT = I wish he used his lovely voice for better music.
SEND A MESSAGE TO HER = should’ve been on album.
CHAIN REACTION = like this one, good ending.
Overall, rather boring, one or two good songs I would listen to again but most of it is just lost in the abyss. Rather forgettable. Probably would not listen again.
I was going to rate each song on albums but that’s too time consuming so I will just review album as a whole.
I already love Joy Division but have never listened to this album as a whole or most songs on it - only Isolation actually which I love. Chill stoner type vibes. Isolation is still by far my fave, just wavy funky good tunes. Its over very quickly but I could listen to it for hours, v calming. Harrowing when you know about Ian’s death and if I was in the wrong headspace I could perceive it wrongly and be sad but I enjoyed it.
I’ve never listened to Stevie Wonder before really so didn’t know what to expect going into this. I really enjoyed it though, funky album, some really good songs on it, very feel good and his voice is so smooth and buttery. My favourite track was Heaven is 10 Zillion Light Years Away. Some songs had me rocking and bopping in my seat - some had me listening intently to the emotion. Thoroughly enjoyable listen.
Another artist I have never really listened to before aside from the big popular songs.
A good chill-out, groovy album.
Doesn't really speak to me so much but I can appreciate it for what it is.
It all just becomes a bit repetitive and boring for me and reminds me of the wee stoner guys in high school lol.
Waiting In Vain was probably my fave on this album.
Really loved her first two albums but haven’t listened to this one.
Solid album though, beautiful powerful voice as always.
Always listen to her songs with ur ex partner in mind, v depressing.
Remedy was probably my fave on the album tbh, with water under the bridge a close second.
Some of it is a bit cheesy like Hello but maybe that’s just because it’s overplayed idk.
I have never heard of or listened to Joan Armatrading in my life so I have no clue what to expect here.
Very Elton John coded but a woman!
This is such a drink wine and listen album.
Sweet and funky and hazy vibes.
Some beautiful sax playing on this album also.
Half-way through and it's starting to get a weeee bit boring now eh.
An easy listen but nothing really stood out to me, probably would not listen again.
I like quite a few of Metallica's songs but I've never listened to a lot of their discography.
So this is a live album with orchestra in background?? Hmm, could be alright.
I'm actually excited to hear what the songs I know sound like in this setting.
Ok...wait...so there's no vocals on this entire 2 hr long album?! I thought there would be!!!
Oh no there are vocal, still not sure I'm enjoying it tho, maybe would be the best thing since sliced bread if you were a massive Metallica fan but idk it just doesn't hit right for me.
It's loooong and boring and blends into one and it's not stimulating my brain, it just becomes background noise after a while.
I actually ended up only listening to the songs I know (not following rules I know) but the rest I just didn't enjoy and it had no meaning for me.
I did like the ones I did know but I would rather just listen to the OG song.
Another artist I’ve never listened to before.
I’m actually really enjoying this album, listening to it on a sunny relaxed Saturday morning and I’m loving it.
It’s just really nice and chill and full of nice guitar and just made my head feel clear and happy.
Definitely would listen to some of these songs again. Think it’s exactly what I needed today.
Another person I've never heard of! Thought I was well versed in music but perhaps I actually live under a rock.
Actually really enjoying this so far - don't know why so many bad reviews.
I love her voice and the whimsical feel to it.
Nothing stood out, but lovely vibey album - I liked it.
Never heard of this band before but the album cover looks like something I’d love so let’s seeee.
Ah I’m enjoying this a lot, it reminds me of something but unsure what.
It feels very Modern and ahead of its time, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of these songs had been released this side of 2000.
Very reminiscent of The Strokes? (Went and read reviews and surprised other people said this too ahah)
Marquee Moon was probably my favourite.
What a gem of an album!
Only 4 tracks and I have 0 clue what to expect from this.
Not my kind of thing at all even tho it’s so short, I can appreciate it’s good cultural music but nah not for me at all sorry.
Ahhhh now we're talking! What a classic album! This album is a different class in itself.
Probably one of the best albums of the 90s - timeless songs.
Common People and Disco 2000 will always be certified bangers.
Apart from the classics, Something Changed is probably my fave, or Underwear.
Awww another big beautiful fave album of mine already.
I don't even know which is my favourite because I love so many.
Such a dreamy, sad, sleepy album - idk people say it's boring but I love it and I will always love it.
Nostalgic and reminds me of being a teen.
I love this album so much I have it on vinyl.
God Sunday Bloody Sunday, New Years Day, Two hearts beat as one, Surrender… so many amazing and important songs, songs of my late teen years.
I forever thank my ex for amplifying my love for U2.
Didn’t know what to expect from this, have heard of Bauhaus but did not know their style or genre or anything.
I’m actually really enjoying this and it reminds me a lot of Joy division which is a good thing!
Thoroughly enjoyable listen and probably will listen again :)
Eh, not sure about this one. Thought I would enjoy but I don't seem to be.
I think the album art mega puts me off as well, I know, don't judge a book by it's cover BUT I hate it !
It's very jingly and bobby.
Probs wouldn’t listen again but it was ok.
Had a previous Nick Drake album so kinda looking forward to this one - see what it brings.
Yeah I really loved this, so chill and dreamy I could listen to his voice forever.
Glad I found him through this site tbh.
Preferred this to the last one I listened to .
Nooooo, my most hated band in the entire world fuck offff.
Tbf I did quite like Bow, dunno why, electronic-ness??
Starlight will always be a Mhairi song so I like it for that.
Hate supermassive black hole and knights of cydonia.
Stuff in between was okay but I still hate something about it like it makes me feel sick and idk why lol
It’s the voice coupled with weird sliding guitar thing just…no
This isn’t on Spotify so I probably won’t listen to it bc effort to keep YouTube open and listen but I will listen to a few.
Didn't know what to expect but it wasn't this !
I don't think ... it's as bad as people make it out to be lol - compared to some things we listen to today I mean.
My favorite part about this album is some songs will have little moments where it’s like “wait that’s actually really cool”.
Thought Moonlight in Vermont was U2 starting again ahahah.
This was a trip - a true journey - but alas, I would not relisten.
I do like some of Neil Young's music so I'm hopeful this will be good...
This album also along with the last are not on Spotify anymore so had to listen on YT.
I do enjoy music like this, quite chill and like smth that my grandad would maybe listen to lol.
Sometimes I was like ooooft that guitar playing!!
I love Baba O'Riley and Behind Blue Eyes but haven't ever rlly listened to anything else on this album.
Classic opening on the first track, I love it.
Lovely album, easy listen, timeless and will listen again.
Really like The Who when it comes down to it.
Aw yasss mr Bowie what a great album !!
5 years is so good I forgot how good it was tbh.
So glad I’m getting the chance to listen again it has been literal ages since I did and I love this so much!
Aw god it’s so funky and full of emotion and just an all round perfect album!! So happy this came up
Unsure what to expect here - jazz??
I did quite enjoy it; was good for a dreary Monday afternoon.
Lifted my spirits quite a bit tbh.
Didn’t think I’d enjoy it but that sax was mesmerising.
Felt like I was at a sock hop or something.
Didn’t expect this album today but here we are.
Musical albums can me hit or miss tbh
Nah didn’t enjoy this at all it just bored me, I didn’t finish it either. Meh. Sorry.
Ur spoiling me w all these Bowie albums!
Another great album, not as good as the last one but I still loved it and always perfect for a wee groovy boogie.
Sometimes I’m doubtful these albums must be listened to before death lol
It’s nothing special it’s just like every other fkin live album. Why must I listen WHY
um no...just no...GIVE ME GOOD ALBUMS
Not my type of music at all and I just cba
Ugh such a great album, makes me feel so ragin and just like I wanna take on everything in the world n be like fuck youuuuu
