1999 by Prince
Jan 12 2024

1999- I'm really enjoying this song. The lyrics and vocals are great. The music behind it is great with a solid beat. I don't know how to talk music but I really like this track. I don't think it would make my liked list so 8/10 Little Red Corvette- Might be early to say (but I did listen once through at work) but I think this is the album peak for me. Love everything about this song, it gets on the liked list and is a certified banger 9/10 Delirious- Good beat and lyrics, the very tenor synth is a bit much for me. Overall I like the track but listening too loud hurts my ears, just misses making the liked list with that 8/10 Let's Pretend We're Married- Oh man I really dig this track, great vibe and fun lyrics. Loving the synth on this track, oh and the break down and rebuild *chefs kiss*, makes the list 8.5/10 (Didn't love the end, that might wind up in Rotational real quick) D.M.S.R.- This song isn't holding me very strongly, the beat is decent but doesn't hit me very strong. 6/10 Automatic- Fine enough love song, easy listening. No complaints but not a very strong entry either 6/10 Something in The Water (Does Not Compute)- Don't love this one as much. Not a big fan of the more industrial influence here (I think industrial is the right term anyway). Would skip if not listening to the whole album 4/10 Free- Solid easy listening song with solid lyrics doesn't make my liked list but does get a solid 6.5/10 Lady Cab Driver- Ooooh funky bass line Lyrics didn't grab me but man that bass line is funky. Will probably end up in Rotational 7.5/10 dang why is this song over 8 minutes All The Critics Love U In New York- another fine track for me, head bopper for sure 7/10 International Lover- Another perfectly fine love song, easy listening and a solid 7/10 Averaging all of my song scores across the album comes back with 7.1/10 rounding up which I will give the album. Overall it's a really solid listen and I can hear it's influence on music as a whole. The songs I like on this record I like a lot and the songs that are ok are ok for me 5/10 is average in my mind for this scale with songs meaning an average album is probably a 5/10 or so making this album 2 points above average in the territory I would call "Absolute Bop" material. Absolute Bops are things that have you boppin your head or tappin your foot pretty regularly. There are a couple songs that are *Certified Bangers* but overall I think the album falls short of that categorization for me.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jan 15 2024

Man this album just had me in a trance, I kinda forgot to take track notes haha. This album is exactly the kind of stuff I listen to and is an easy save to my library for rotation. Probably keep my eyes open for a vinyl!

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Jan 16 2024

This is a toughie for me. I like a lot of the instrumental tracks and enjoy vocals when they aren’t very distorted. But the tracks on this album with a lot of industrial influence, distorted vocals, and pitchy disc spinning don’t do it for me.

This is a tough one for me. I can’t deny that I really enjoy the music on each track but not hung really stands out to me either. I could have this album on repeat a couple times before getting stale but I don’t know if the lyrics would ever stick for me.

Illmatic by Nas
Jan 18 2024

Already a fan of this album before today

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Jan 19 2024

I generally don't love live albums but this is an exception. What a great listen! Had it on repeat for a couple times through before I really even realized.

Not my favorite Queen album but who doesn’t love Killer Queen

Revolver by Beatles
Jan 23 2024

The Beatles just don’t really do it for me. Nothing on the album caught my attention. Eleanor Rigby was kind of hard to listen to with only 1 ear in, the lyrics switch channels throughout the song. I missed most of the lyrics.

Tago Mago by Can
Jan 24 2024

Ooooh boy, I love weird indie rock stuff and THIS is weird indie rock stuff. Love it.

Parallel Lines by Blondie

Oh man generic 80s pop! That's a little extreme but yea this album just sounds like stuff that plays at low volume in shopping centers.
