1001 Albums Summary

Moitié musique de film des années 80 moitié road trip

Greta and chill vibes, lyrics are sometimes a bit simple or maybe it's just the flow that bothers me

Radio Nova meets Oasis meets India

Autant j'adore le style autant c'est clairement pas le meilleur album de cette époque (et de l'artiste en général)

Not my jam

J'aime d'autres albums de Prince mais là trop musique de centre commercial 80's un peu... Oops

Répétitif

Est-ce que si ça passe à la radio je change de radio ? Non. Est-ce que j'irai l'écouter sur Spotify ? Non plus...

Classique ayant eu une influence assez gigantesque (Michael Scott et Dwight Schrute diraient la même chose avec leur fameux ''Straight Outta Scranton'') mais je préfère justement ce qui est venu par la suite.

It has some nice elements but it's hard to appreciate if you're not in the mood... I was not in the mood.

Such a delightful voice, listening to this in the morning made me feel very peaceful. I would honestly compare it to Sinatra, only a country version, you can see the influence.

Not a popular opinion, but I just never liked their music. Like most people, I've heard many of their songs throughout my life, and I still find it extremely repetitive. (How many times can you repeat the song title during a chorus ?) I honestly think some people enjoy it simply because it's presented as a classic...

I don't have any constructive criticism, just not into it.

Some great songs, but I don't like the album composition. It starts out with Seven Nation Army (which is a forever banger that I will never not want to listen), then, when you're pumped up, the energy dips dramatically, and picks up again only in the second half of the album. Overall I would rate it mid, it's not mind-blowing.

Loooved Southern man and a couple of other songs, but I wouldn't listen to it for hours

Is the song 1 minute long... Or 10 minutes ? Has it ended, or is it just beginning ? This is musically speaking a great album, and I feel like listening to this live would be a great experience. Perhaps only a musician can truly enjoy this album through and through while sitting on the couch or driving to work. You need to get into it. Ultimately, my reaction was exactly that of the girl trying Kombucha meme lol, Roundabout is a gem but it became too much of a rollercoaster...

I stopped halfway through the album, it's a no from me.

Loved it. Had a great time listening to it. Would listen to it again. What more can I say...

Damn, not enjoyable at all to listen to

Can't really be more indie than this. The lyrics feel a bit simple and the singer songs like he's bored

Not letting the argument of '' it's MJ so of course it's 5 stars '' cloud my judgement : it's repetitive at times and definitely not as good as Thriller. Rock With You is the only one that really stands out to me.

Really enjoyed the first few songs, then it lost my attention. Good discovery nonetheless

That was a big no. His voice sound like a teenager whining so hard his forehead veins starts to pop and his face turns red. His voice didn't irritate me as much in Elephant, probably thanks to the effects added.

I was extremely happy to start my week with this album. Of course there is a nostalgic element since I've listened to it during my teenage years, but I still really this is a great album especially for a debut

(I'm a native french speaker fyi) Never really listened to Brel before other than maybe at my grandparents house. I don't really like the lyrics even though it's partly what he's known for. What I will admit is that the emotion in his voice is extraordinary, it really draws you in. You can't ignore his immense talent. But yeah it's not really my cup of tea and it kinda makes me feel sad lol

If I rated his ability to steal songs from black people, it's be a 5/5. But I am solely rating this album, so it's gonna be a 1/5. Not a fan of his voice. A-bop-bop-a-loom-op a-lop-bop-boom

Thought I would not like it but I really enjoyed some of the songs

Damn. Never listened to one of his album before and I was blown away. I wonder which guitarist can say they haven't been influenced by Jimi Hendrix...

Could I listen to one song if it randomly came on the radio while driving ? Sure. But no more than that.

This feels like the kind of music you would hear in a bad rom-com / coming-of-age movie. Or the end credits of a boring 90's TV Show. Mixed with a whiny Stewie Griffin-like voice.

Some great songs and obvious classic but it's a bit too ''early'' in terms of rap style for my taste

Not really into blues

I shouldn't have read who the producer was before listening to the album because I love Kanye's style and it definitely contributed to a higher rating. It's a solid album but it doesn't really stand out. I kinda wish someone else was rapping. Not a fan of the lyrics as well.

Other than the one song I knew I honestly was really bored by the album. Feels like you need to be high laying on the couch. It has sort a cynical vibe too, which doesn't fit every mood.
