Good stuff but the bonus remixes are better.
this is a great piece of art and i might need it when i am sad
quite good for a debut album
this is so not my shit but as an immigrant i sure can relate to a song about leaving your small town someday
this is a great album and it is going into my repeat rotation
steven wilson probably loves this album
there was a time when i would have loved this album
"fell in love with a girl" is probably one of the first songs i downloaded
Child in Time will always be a reminder of a time when songs could be ten minutes long
As Bob Dylan told the Fab Four, “I get it, you’re not cute anymore.”
"...it gives me a sense of enormous wellbeing (Parklife)
And then I'm happy for the rest of the day..."
listening to "personal jesus" on easter monday hits different
he knows rhythm is what makes music go
the first album i have found via this service that i would definitely have not found on my own and its a joyful one
walked in the park, soft sunlight, gentle wind, listening to this
is this where funk was born
featuring none of the songs you associate with the beatles
Joe and Cameron dancing to “Velouria” by the Pixies in season 3 episode 9 of "Halt & Catch Fire" is all I have to say.
The first choice, apparently, was Nirvana's Love Buzz. The replacement with its ethereal quality and a sense of longing expressed in captures the moment way better. I could listen to that song over and over again without getting sick.
me, not understanding any french, listening to this: :)
me, looking up what the lyrics mean: :(
i am basic and i will confess trip hop for me is portishead and massive attack
i am sure this is a nice album but i have no memory of listening to it
their first three albums are probably their best and this one is my favorite among the three
If you told me there was a band called The Electric Prunes I would expect them to play the first track but not the rest of them.
A perfectly ordinary 3 star album.
sometimes it is okay to close your mind to new experiences
“A very famous man in the industry said to me once that rock ’n’ roll is disposable music. I said, ‘Oh, hell no, it's not!’ I don't make songs that are disposable. I'm making songs that are going to last. I hope that when I'm old and gray and all gone, that my music will still give somebody hope, or lift, or help with something, the same way that I get it with other songs that other musicians have recorded that I sang forever.”
the birth of trip hop but it is not my favorite massive attack album
the perfect mix of sad dance music, going on my repeat listen list
I like the Bowie cover and, I suspect, so did Kurt.
come for sabotage, stay for shambala
ask charles manson to rate this instead
my kingdom for a heart of gold
did i want to listen to this because i thought i wouldn't like it? no
did i listen to this and then prove myself wrong? also, no.
the one truly great album on this last so far
I liked this album enough to consider watching Shogun Assassin
Christgau gave this an A.
liked it more than i thought i would
I never realized these artists thought so much about dying
"You call me a fool // You say it's a crazy scheme // This one's for real // I already bought the dream // So useless to ask me why"
lo fi chill beats to dissociate to
this is like one of those anecdotes that someone starts relating with great gusto but their energy drops as they realize it sounded funnier, better, in their head and they finally end with "you had to be there to get it"
From Wikipedia:
According to Tom Vickers, who served as Minister of Information for Parliament-Funkadelic from 1976 to 1980, during an impromptu performance in front of the United Nations, a woman who accompanied George Clinton to the event witnessed a U.N worker hoisting the flags in front of the building. When Clinton asked the woman what she thought, she replied, "One Nation Under a Groove".
It is said that upon hearing “Higher Ground” while in a coma, Stevie moved his fingers.
I just can’t bring myself to care about this
i have been listening to these albums while commuting and while working so it makes sense that i like the ones that sound good. i don't really pay much attention to the lyrics which is probably why i didn't care for the dylan album and i loved this one.
i started doing this as a way to discover new music, without leaning on opaque algorithms developed by corporate overlords, and i have been reasonably happy with that outcome. however, i have also come to realize that it is a self-reinforcing bias. even before listening to this album, i know that i will like it. i once made a spotify playlist called 'synthia' which was full of synth-forward music, sorted chronologically. how could i not like gary numan?
"The death of the party // Came as no surprise..."
The definition of “not for me”
me before listening to the first song: why do i have to listen to this :(
me after listening to the first song:
🤠
🎸🎸🎸
🎸 🎸 🎸
👇 🎸 🎸 👇
🎸 🎸
🎸 🎸
👢 👢
a lot more fun than i thought it would be based on the name
i like dusty but why is an album composed solely of covers on a list like this?
i don't know what to make of this
i love a good long song. when I listened to "everybody knows this is nowhere," i immediately took to 'cowgirl in the sand.' this is an album where every song is 'cowgirl in the sand' so why wouldn't i like it?
there used to be a time when i listened to a lot of metal and this would have been 5 stars. now, it is unlikely that i will listen to this or remember it after today.
i have lost count of how many times i have listened to this on repeat
if they make a jonathan strange & mr norrell movie they should use this as the soundtrack
a totally new album and new band for me. i liked it. i might not listen to it again but i liked it.
not my favorite bowie album but "fame" alone is worth the price of admission
5 stars for perfect day alone
i haven't heard this, i tried but i couldn't
I love Talking Heads but this, for me, is the lesser of the Eno trilogy.
5 stars to Andy Rourke’s bass on Barbarism Begins At Home
not my favorite Queen album
there was a time i would have given this more stars
3 stars for Under The Bridge
this is as good as it gets for the red hot chili peppers
5 stars for blue skies alone
heard it, couldn't tell you anything about it
4 because its bowie but more of a 3
Liked this more than I thought I would
there was a time when i would have been all over this but that time is long gone and i have unfortunately grown old and up
reggae continues to not be my thing
did i like it? yes.
will i listen to it again? apart from the opening track, probably no.
i aint listening to all that.
i'm happy for u tho.
or sorry that happened.
bought the vinyl at a sale without knowing a thing about it
started slow but i liked it? this is a trip hop sampling dream
1 extra star for dancing in the dark
all-time fav, smoke on the water might be one of the first things i downloaded via limewire
i don't get their appeal and i refuse to
tony soprano singing along to dirty work
Tyres from Spaced loves this album
i can't quite explain the mindspace this puts me in
fell asleep halfway through and didn't really care enough to go back
interesting as a part of nick cave's origin story but not much else
1 extra star for the song Wooden Ships which is why the band Wooden Shjips exists
i got off the wall, thriller and this in order and it feels like a perfect bell curve
that one onion article was right
not even their best work imo
the only tolerable dylan album
surprised by the quality of the 2nd half and the extra star is for the 12 min outro
"our lips are sealed" and "we got the beat" are in my "oh whats that song called" hall of fame
i don't like def leppard or whatever genre this is but this is tolerable
recommending this to me 2 days after ozzy passed away, RIP
this was one of my first bargain bin blind buys
csn&y invented stoner rock?
Are you telling me Ice Cube came up with “it’s on like donkey kong”?!
I like REM but songs not entire albums
its like how the coen bros movies are more interesting than any of the individual coen movies
sometimes all you really need is some straightforward rock n roll
i know someone who is into uk garage and would rate this 5 stars but that someone isn't me
wasn't expecting to like this as much as i did
1 extra star for "In Your Eyes"
i bet tyres from spaced loves this
interesting but the kind where you don't know how else to describe it
not in my shoegaze era though the san francisco weather right now certainly is
the music equivalent of chicken tikka masala but hey, i like it
i guess i ain't ready for the night train
1 star for A Forest and the San Francisco weather right now which fits the vibe of this album
the only bad thing about this album is the cover
i was at 4 stars before kiwanuka came on
i have known too many insufferable idiots who loved the doors so i never did. a victim of their own success, you might say.
don't look back in anger is one of the greatest songs of all time
