All Ratings (952)

Once - Good opening to an album, eased me in. Wasn't sure what to expect but enjoyed it nonetheless. Even Flow - A classic. Not too heavy. Very fun song. Alive - Nice song, lyrics pretty cool maybe quite sad? Like this one a lot. Great voice. Wicked guitar solo. Why Go - Slightly heavier, liked it. Not my favourite so far but by no means bad. Long guitar solo which was fun. Black - Slower song, nice. Like the vocals on this one a lot. Jeremy - Bit more boring don't hate it but won't be listening again any time soon. Ocean's - Lovely beginning. Great vocals on this one. Love the high notes. Felt very cool listening to this song. Porch - Really felt the bass in this one, the drumming was very expressive in Porch. Garden - Felt powerful. Vocals and lyrics really huge in this one. Again, really feel the bass. I like this one. Deep - Rock and roll and grunge. Dirty song liking this. Drums at the end very rock. Release - Last song, feels like a last song to an epic album.

So Far Away - Catchy bass line, catchy guitar riff and lyrics. Feels like I should be in a coming of age film Money for Nothing - Questionable lyric but the other lyrics very fun. Classic really Walk of Life - Insane song. Bouncy, up-beat rock and roll. Your Latest Tricks - Gentle, slow, nice relaxing song. Feels sexy, especially with Knopfler's Ooohs Why Worry - Slow, relaxing, dreamy song. Liking this a lot. Nice instrumental to end the song. Ride Across the River - Cool, different tune. Feels like I'm in the jungle The Man's Too Strong - Great lyrics, great guitar. Nick Cave sequel in a weird sort of happier way One World - Cool bass very catchy. Different song I'm liking it, feels like a powerful listen Brothers in Arms - Another classic this. Very smooth, catchy guitar. Lyrics felt like they were being whispered and I liked that a lot.

Didn't make personal notes for each tune this time. Was getting ready and listening to it at the same time so didn't have time. Never properly listened to Eric Clapton's stuff before so this was a nice introduction. Obviously Layla is a classssssiccccc which was nice. My fave song was Anyday. Whole album felt very cool, felt like a cool boy listening to this album. Fun, cool and incredibly talented band. Great album.

Great intro to an album. Never properly listened to Afrobeat properly before and I enjoyed this a lot. The 16 minute drum solo was particularly impressive. Lot of love for this great album!

Born in the USA - Great opening to an album, iconic. Reminds me of Camp. Great tune, never properly listened to Bruce before so excited for this album! Cover Me - Enjoyed this one. All very American. Darlington County - Reminded me of Is this the way to Amarillo. Liked it a lot though fun song. Working on the Highway - WILL NEED TO RELISTEN Downbound Train - Great song, want to listen to the lyrics. I'm on Fire - BANGER! Enjoy this song a lot, lovely lyrics. No Surrender - What an opening. Yeah, liked this one thought it was very fun. Bobby Jean - Lovely sax, piano and singing. Fave song that I'd not heard before. I'm Goin' Down - Quite cool, sounds like Wagon Wheel a bit which is a shame. Glory Days - Another classic, maybe I know more Bruce than I thought! Dancing in the Dark - I knew this one too! Wow, Bruce Springsteen has some great tunes. Know Dad loves him maybe I do too. This is a great song with great lyrics. My Hometown - Nice finish to a great album. Took me on a journey.

One of those albums that I wish I liked, I just don't really. Kind of hurts my ears a bit. Incredibly talented band but just not for me. Couple good tracks. Maps of course and Poor Song.

Fine to listen to in the background. Slightly too long for my liking. Época Sounds like it should be the intro for French detective show. Odd album, won't listen again.

AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC! Made me very happy to see this one today. Listened a few times and it's always great. Especially as I'm in Australia rn. Made me feel so good whilst job hunting.

Thunder Road - Okay Harmonica! Always loved a harmonica. Nice song like this, upbeat bit of fun, cool piano. Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out - His voice is ridiculous, what a guy. Could see myself being a Bruce fan! I likeeeeee this album so far. Bit of fun Night - Big chords, sounds like another song but I cannot think for the life of me. Again, vocals are just !!!!! Backstreets - Bass is wicked on this one. Want to listen to the lyrics he's singing more. ooooo key change! Great tune. Born to Run - OFC I KNOW THIS ONE. Feel like I'm in AMERICAAAAAAAAAA She's the One - She is the one and this album is the one. One of the coolest songs I've heard on this album a day journey. Meeting Across the River - Weird, saw Eddie next to the sea last night, so kinda the same thing. Chill, love the piano and the sax. Super relaxing song, could listen all night long. Jungleland - Lyrics feel very American, love shit like this. Barefoot girls sitting on the hood of a dodge, what a line, so America.

Not a hip-hop listener but not terrible. Playful lyrics

Only know a couple of their songs, obvious bangers though. Pretty catchy album, just too long for me. Not got time for that. Good album though, enjoying it.

OH YESSSSS BIT OF RAWWCKKKKKKK

Cool album. Not sure why I have never listened to The Verve before. Deluxe was 3 hours long which I am not about.

Surprised I have never listened to this album in my whole life. I like it a lot, it's cool very trendy. 1984?! That's ages ago and he made this album, how sick is that.

Another classic been spoilt recently. Love this album, would listen forever and ever.

Meh, not great. Boring

Okay, not a huge RnB fan BUT I do like Missy Elliott. Album too long for me. I am defo under an hour fan.

Great album, one of the first records I bought so obviously have a small connection with it. Perfect length, only 40 mins great stuff. Fave off the album is either That Joke isn't funny anymore or Nowhere Fast. Fuck Morrissey.

Not my favourite album in the world. Totally understand it's meant to sound like this, but some of the tracks are just hard to listen to, sore ears and that. Appreciate the artist and the post punk sound but just not for me.

Bit of heavy metal. Feels very old compared to some other metal albums, but I guess it is pretty old. Like it a lot though. Love the album cover.

COME ONNNNNNN. What an album.

Wicked album!

Weird. Really tried to enjoy it, but I could not. Sorry Spacemen.

Did not realise how many BANGERS were on this album! Never listened properly before today, will be listening again. Great bloke great music.

Bit boring, not my favourite album ever. Meh.

not for me. appreciate it but not great

Weird. Liked it.

Background noise. Brilliant album cover.

THRASH METAL??? ODD ALBUM BUT ENJOYED IT. Made my driving bad.

Loved it

Great, fantastic, beautiful goth rock.

Great album. Not listened to this album in full before but enjoyed it rather a lot.

Weird fun

This album is the same age as me. Feels like I am a teen again. Oh those were the days. Not a huge Eminem fan but quite like a couple tuneessss tbf.

Terrible weird but kinda enjoyed the weirdness but not that much.

Yeah this is really really good. Love a bit of pop

Proper silly name and album cover, really love it.

Decent tbf. Would listen again

Oh yes. 5 stars.

Not my cup of tea.

Not bad. Slap bang middle of the road for me. Some good tunes, some not so good tunes.

Rather enjoyed that actually!!

Terrible

Not sure what all the hype is about on here? Impressive, sure, but boring for me. Don't want to have to listen to a 16 minute song ever, regardless of the genre etc. Really respect mateys discography and can tell he's a sound guy and very talented. Not for me though. 2/5

Boring

Terrible.

Good couple tunes. Kinda boring

This was kinda fun

Boring

Like Metallica but not this

This was great. Loved it.

Forever will remind me of GCSE music

Scary

One of the greatest albums ever

Beautiful

Very fitting as I leave Nashville

Shit

Rather enjoyed this

Too long
