Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Oct 28 2023

Bridge Over Troubles Water — is already one of the favourites song of the album, right off the bat. El Condor Pasa — has this mexican-sounding tune or rythm that I do not totally dig into. Of course, the flute solo’s are beautiful but maybe that’s only the instrument, not the melody itself ? Cecilia — such a change of style ! Love the percussions and the joy. I must add I find the lyrics a bit dull, but I guess it’s more of a "hit" so it totally makes sense. Was suprised to find the flute again, and the typical Mexican or Southern notes. I feel like I know another very famous song that sounds just like it, couldn’t name it though. Keep the customer statisfied — very country ? Don’t like it much. Very much don’t know the era, but this boys-band style of singing sounds just like the Beatles. So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright — Back to a solo singer on guitar, much like the first song. Very soothing. Back to solo flutes again, a continuing theme throughout the album. The lyrics though, still can’t get attached to them… The Boxer, I already like the lyrics more. There’s an instrument which I can’t name that adds such a deep and great note. Also, some battery finally !(okay maybe 3-4 beats) Baby driver — too american/country for me The only boy living in New York — some novelty in the singing, finally some battery and rythm that lasts more than a sentence ! Why don’t you write me — GREAT change of style ! So different, deep voice, a female singer and makes me want to dance way more. THE INSTRUMENTS TOO ! Instantly instant music solo. Best song of the album for the moment ! Bye Bye Love — Not bad, I feel like the concert version on Spotify ruins the song for me a bit. Song for the Asking — Very short. Appreciate the classical instruments, but the song in it’s entirety is not something I would listen. After some reading : this is Folk. Didn’t exactly know that style, and definitely not for me. Favourites songs of the album : - Why don’t you write me - Bridge Over Troubled Water

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Oct 29 2023

Album long et difficile à écouter. Pas surpris que seul le premier soit connu

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Oct 30 2023

Génial ! Je connaissais déjà certains sons mais l’album a une ambiance unique. Pas fan de certains sons où les paroles se répètent mais le reste compense bien

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Nov 02 2023

Album génial ! Me prendra surement encore un temps avant d'apprécier complètement l'album à cause du fait que les sons sont long et donc je ne les ai pas tous écouté attentivement.
