What a great album. Amazing there is probably only 1, maybe 2 songs I don’t know. A+. Crisp harmony. Cool synthesizers. Solid guitar chords. You can put this on at an 80s party or an Alt rock party or banging rock party. Something in there for everyone. Zero weakness

Great for dinner music or to relax too. Great vibe album if you want some background music with a little bounce. I’ll absolutely put it on in the background but it’s not something I’ll crank in the car.

Not my cup of tea. I think it was probably super unique and new when it was released but it doesn’t move the needle for me. I don’t hate it and won’t turn it off if it’s on and the final song (Silent Night) is a pretty grim reminder of the times. Plus, there are a few well known songs from my youth but it just doesn’t move that much

Didn’t realize it was such bubblegum pop. I have a lot of love for the Beatles but it’s kind of funny thinking about the older Beatles and the 16 year old pre Beatles fighting in Liverpool and listening to this album list of “I love you” songs. I’m out on this one

I think for the time period, it was an excellent album. There are a couple of songs I know and I wouldn’t tell you to turn it off but it just doesn’t move my needle these days

Probably not Eminem’s best album but I love it anyways. I know some will find it extremely offense (and it is) but sort of his whole alter ego schtick is how offensive can he possibly be and not get banned and as he says in one of the songs, the worse it gets, the more money he makes. There are some great bangers on this record and some good memories. Bitch Please II, the Way I am, and the Real Slim Shady are all great memories from years ago. Stan is an absolutely brilliant written story song that points the finger at those who think lyrics relate to violence through very personal experiences. Like most of his catalogue, I love the album

Probably a top 3 favorite album of all time for me. Can pretty much recite every lyric to every song. Every single song is memorable. Money has changed the ability for artists to sample so freely but this entire album is the pinnacle of sampled music. Lyrics are silly and genius. I can remember in 5th grade, standing in the recess line singing Paul Revere with a bunch of kids in the class. It’s one of those anthems that anyone of a certain age will suddenly want to sign a long to. “Did it like this, did it like that. Did it with a whiffle ball bat”. I’ve personally burned through 3 tapes of this song and still get fired up hearing it. I get if I put this on with a bunch of younger kids today, they would be amazed and think it was great. Rest in Peace to Yauch. This album gets 12 stars

Would probably give this 3.5. I always thought of them as a one hit wonder but this album was really good start to finish. Definitely worth another listen or two.

A little dated for me but good enough that I don’t mind it on in the background. Good lyrics. I’d give it a 2.5 if I could

This is like Jefferson Starship and the Sponge Monkees had a child. Danced between 1 and 2 stars. Would call it 1.5. It’s just really freaking weird

Surprisingly enjoyed this album a lot. I find much of Maiden’s work a little too screamy. This was actually the perfect heavy metal album. Still not something I’ll continue to listen too over and over again but I’ll listen again here and there

Would probably give it 2.5. A couple well known songs that I like but I don’t love it

Burned this one out in college. Every song sticks. Great album

Honestly knew nothing about this group. I think I’ve heard Maps before but it was new. I wouldn’t say this was a lyrically deep album or anything but it was really good. I enjoyed it

It’s like if you gave a classroom full of boys a bunch of fisher price instruments and a load of sugar and told them to make some noise. Total chaos to my ears

It’s funny. When I hear some of these songs in a rock mix, I don’t really like them. However, taking the time to putting the album on and listening through, it actually fits together really well. Im pretty shocked I'm giving them 4 stars but I am…

Pretty cool. Pretty chill. Good for a dinner party

I have to admit it really isn’t my style. If you love 80s alt rock, it’s probably pretty great. I don’t love the style so I’m out

Great album for the mid 80s but it’s pretty dated now. Second part of the album is a little bit mailed in. It’s ok

Not the best soul album, country album, blues album or rock album but pretty good for all of those. I surprisingly enjoyed it even though Cartman ruined The Ghetto.

I knew the big hits and thought okay. Well, the album was actually really good. Better than I expected

Would have been awesome 40 years ago. It’s fun and lots of bounce to it but it’s just really dated for my taste. Not really my jam

One of my top 10 albums of all time. Brought rap to mainstream. Launched Addidas into popularity. Launched Rick Rubin which led to the Beastie Boys. Created a whole sub genre of rock/rap. If there was 10 stars, I would give it 10

Pretty good classic rock album. Couple elite songs that hold up and a few dated Stones songs. Would give it 3.5 but I’ll round up
