Finally have a band and song name to place with the song 'Le Freak'. This whole thing is going to be very helpful for music trivia, we can say things like "i know who sings this but I cannot think of the name right now".
Highlight: the very chill 'At last I Am Free' into the fun 'Sometimes You Win'

We had a cd of Rumors in the house growing up but I didn't listen to this one closely until later. I always think I want to listen to it but really I just want to rock out to The Ledge and then move on with my day

Nick Drake
Got into this and pink moon just a couple years ago, some other artist (i thought it was colin greenwood but couldnt find it) mentioned nick drake and this album in particular as a huge influence. This album drops my heartrate, i love it. You get these great straightforward seeming folk tracks but all of the sudden you're on these jazzy tangents and horns and keys show up. Plus breezily contemplative lyrics that invite you to just slow down your brain a bit.

In Rainbows
Radiohead
Will always remember this album cycle very fondly, 4 years was a very long time between albums of a band you love when you are younger so it felt like they were coming back from the grave.
Saw them play outdoors in montreal on this tour and out of ~300 concerts Ive been to it is #1. When they played fake plastic trees fireworks started going off in the background because it turns out there was a fireworks thing happening that same night in the city. Magic!
Never liked Body Snatchers and think there are some songs on \"disk 2\" that are much better. Actually I would re sequence the whole thing using the best tracks from both tracks.

"Noone ever knows who the third member is" a friend once told me when I couldn't name him, and like all great shame, the memory has cemented it into the forefront of my brain: Pras.

Sonic Bliss. Easy contender for a desert island album, there is just so much happening across these tracks that it is hard to exhaust. All timer Kim songs, Thurston songs, and Lee songs. Probably not my fav sonic youth album, but it is the most sonic youth album.

Justin Timberlake
Kind of THE transition album from boy bands to mid aughts top 40, with timbaland and pharrel starting to shape the sound that would define their biggest hits and the broader sound of pop radio in the following years. Dig the singles, but not quite as much as the ones from 20/20 a few years later. Just feels like this album has a few great sounds and they kind of run dry. A couple friends wrote and sang me a happy birthday parody of 'like i love you' in high school so it will always be a little special.

I listened to pretty fly for a white guy 1 million times when it came out and only now decades later have the origin story of the intro sound clip. Does this come up in the Rock of Ages musical? How many other knowledge gaps in my brain could be filled simply by listening to more hair metal? Going to leave that a mystery, because of how bad this music sounds.
