Very by Pet Shop Boys
May 07 2024

Note: I'm listening to this with dodgey headphones that have to be in a VERY specific spot to play the sound in both ears (it infuriates me) so I might not have had the best listening experience. First song - It's really upbeat! And cheesy. The 'ask yourself now, can you forgive her?' is catchy lol I know it'll be stuck in my head at some point. Second song - These songs seem to just start right in the energetic parts of it without really building up. I think it's alright, just a bit strange at first. This sounds like some song you'd play for Year 5s at a shitty school disco. Third song - This has a little bit of a buildup so it doesn't sound as jarring at the beginning. This intro sounds nicer than the two other songs in their entirety. It feels a bit like a Vocaloid song, if that makes sense. I like the instrumental bit with the strings VST thing. Fourth song - Starts like a classic Vocaloid song lol. I like it so far, but the lyrics and vocal melody sound so boring. The song ended really weirdly and abruptly. Fifth song - This one is just boring. The 'visiting for tea' line is so... Cringey. I don't think his accent or voice fits this music much. And I say this as an English person as well. This song is the worst one so far lol. The constant drums are annoying. It'd be better if it started off with no drums, then they just started a bit later. This one was just generally droning and shit. Sixth song - At least they're trying to do something different with the spoken part in the beginning. But it's just so cheesy and SHIT! Those annoying droning melodies, oh my God, and the horrible shallow lyrics. It's annoying music 6 year olds like. The part where it slows down at the end is at least cool. Seventh song - This one's a little more bearable. I just realised that this is the type of music Mettaton would make haha. Just the most cheesy shit ever. Eighth song - idk how to spell 8th. Anyway I don't know why I keep subjecting my ears to this complete shit. I've never hated an album so strongly. Ninth song - I just want this to be over so badly it's all the exact same bullshit. His voice is pissing me off. I'll give it a 2/10 and leave it here. The 2 points are from some of the nicer instrumental bits.

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
May 08 2024

Never heard of this guy. The art looks cool. The first song was boring but then got really loud suddenly. Now it's interesting. It keeps kind of droning on. I mean it sounds pretty but it's just a bit long and repetitive. OH I LOVE THIS BIT (12:37) Now it's getting good... This is like one really long song. The bit where he goes 'glockenspiel' is dead funny. I think this album's very nice to listen to but it's not very interesting. It's still nice though, so I'll give it a 3/5. It kind of reminds me off The War of the Worlds. At 37:27, it's kind of funky. I like the weird noises the guy's making, it gives you a proper image in your head of some fantastical setting. At 47:21, it's like the album itself is saying a happy goodbye to you. It reminds me weirdly of when, while I was about 5 or 6 years old, I would visit my grandfather and when we'd leave he'd stand at the door waving, saying 'cheerio'. And we'd wave back for ages. Every time, he'd also shake my hand and go 'how do you do', and I'd have to reply back the same, and we'd laugh. Every kid in my family did that. I'll actually give this album a 4/5 for that. It made me feel such a strong emotion from just that part at the end. Most music doesn't make me feel a thing.
