Not bad. A little maudlin and melancholy. Definitely not everyday listening for me.

Just awesome. Added to my Tidal Collections, so it must be good!

Apart from the hit tracks, I found this album notable only for being jarring and messy. Silence was definitely golden at the end of the 40 minutes or so that i spent listening to it.

I liked the second half better than the first half. Highlights? Sunday Girl and Heart of Glass, naturally. Still, all in all, just an OK album for me. I think I could have died happy without having heard it, to be honest.

There is something about Neil Young's singing voice that leaves me a little unenthused, but if I set that prejudice aside, I think this is a hell of a good album. The lyrics, especially on Thrashers, intrigued me sufficiently to do some online research to understand what they represent, and I enjoyed all the tracks enough to give the album a second play, just to make sure I actually did like it. It might not make it into my Tidal collection, so I will rate it a four star album, but I certainly wouldn't mind listening to it again sometime.

It took several attempts to listen to this album, as I kept trying when I was tired and the sound of the water on the Overture lulled me to sleep. Having finally heard it all the way through though, I'm very impressed. It's going in my tidal collection. Five stars from me.

Just great music from Sting and the boys. It's going into my collection. Five stars.

On the first listen, I figured three stars would be generous for this album. But just to be sure, I spent the weekend with it in my headphones, and surprise to say, it did grow on me, so despite not being a big Fleetwood Mac fan, I'm going to give it four.

Bland and forgettable, that's the best I can say about this album. Three stars is generous, but I'll give them up because there was nothing that offended my sense of musical taste.

I liked this much better than I thought I would. It won't go in my Tidal collection, as I'm no big fan of rap music, and I probably won't ever listen to it again, but my journey through the tracks was pleasant enough to warrant three stars, rather than the one or two I expected to give up before I listened to it.

Meh! I like some Indian music. But this? Nah!

The moment I dreaded in this project has finally come - the point when I receive an album that I really don't like, but dogged as I am, will hear it through to the bitter end. This was a painful listen. I appreciate that the \"artists\" were probably off their faces on Acid, but surely there must have come a point when their sensibilities returned and they realised what a godawful cacophony they had created, although, apparently not. My first one-star album. There you go!

I'm shocked, because I really wanted to hate this album, and groaned inwardly when presented with it, since I have ever considered music by the Smiths to be whiny, maudlin junk. But I didn't hate it. In fact, I gave it a second listen, and now I'm even more shocked because I'm going to give it four stars.

Pure genius for sure. An easy four stars. Why not five? Only because this is not a music genre I typically engage with, I am unlikely to listen to it again, and I won't be adding it to my Tidal collection. But nobody can deny the magic of Mr. Charles' voice and genius on the ivories.

Nice, mellow, inoffensive sounds with a cool electronic vibe. Definitely an easy listen, and I might give it another go later. This will be a four-star album for me.

I didn't feel much fire. What rhymes with fire? Dire! Yes, that's what I thought of this album. It takes elements of some of my favourite music genres and turns them into a pile of shite. Inclusion of the slide guitar is just enough to persuade me to give this two stars instead of just one. Just terrible!

WARNING! Do not listen to this if you are contemplating suicide. My god! But this is a maudlin album, but my god! did I enjoy listening to it. Perhaps that says something about my current state of mind. I may reach out for it again one day, but I won't add it to my Tidal library. Another album that I expected to hate, but that will get four stars from me, at least today.

The tracks Tennessee and Friday Night Fever just about elevate this to a two-star album for me. The singing in general is dreadful, and I feel that this album would best be on a list called 1001 albums to listen to that will make you want to die.

It's not in me to give this album any less than the five stars it deserves. Adding it to my Tidal library.

Oh God!! What to do with this package of weirdness. I didn't like it, but I didn't hate it either. Sure, I'll never listen to it again, at least not intentionally, and some of the "music" was laughingly bad, especially the screaming bits. You know what I'm gonna do? Give it three stars, that's what!

Of course it's five stars. It's Led Zep!!

Almost squeezed a fourth star out of me, because I liked the second half of the album more than the first. But... nah! It's three stars from me. Not bad.

Unmemorable, bland, and only the last two or three tracks save it from being a two-star album for me, so I'll grudgingly give it a three.

Oh Dear! On the first track it sounds like someone's trying to sabotage the track by randomly banging on a tin cup, and the rest of the album is not much better. Dreary, dull, and weird, but not in a good way. I didn't like it much, but I suppose I can manage two stars.

It was just alright for me, The co-packaged Streetheart was the better album, I think.

Gave it two listens and it's still just alright for me. Nice music, but just not my cup of tea I guess. Will give it three stars as there's nothing really wrong with it. I'm just not fussed.

This album was an exercise in endurance for me. I think I would have enjoyed it a bit more if I heard most of the songs with the vocals removed. Indeed, it is only some decent musicianship that keeps me from giving a single star. Instead, it just about deserves two, in my view.

Yeah!! I liked this. It gets four stars.

Liked it a lot. Four stars.

Played this with the expectation of trashing it in review and moving on (like many others have), and ended up playing it over and over. Beautiful, ethereal, mesmerising, it's probably been the most surprising album of this project so far for me. It's getting five stars and going in my tidal library.

I enjoyed listening to this album. I'll give it four stars.

Excellent album. It's going into my Tidal library and getting five stars.

Rather discordant in the main, I did enjoy a few moments of this album, so for that I'll give it three stars. But really I see it as a 2.5.

I so wanted to hate this, but I love it. It's getting five stars and going into my Tidal library.

If you'd told me at the time of this album's release, that one day I would add a rap album to my music collection, I'd have called you sick in the head... But the day has come. This one's going in, and getting five stars. I loved listening to it.

Just beautiful. Another album from a genre that I've paid little attention to. That may change now, and this album, for sure, is going into my collection. Five stars from me.

Hmmm!...nice voice and everything, but this type of music just bores me and leaves me cold. Not my cup of tea and I was glad when the album came to a close. I'll give it three stars because she's a top-notch singer, but that's all.

The second half of this album was better than the first half. Still, three stars is the most I'm prepared to offer.

This was a fun album to listen to. Noisy, brash, and with crazy lyrics. I won't be adding it to my collection but I liked it a lot. Four stars.

Good musicianship. Not sure I liked the political commentary, and it just didn't do much for me. Three stars.

Not the kind of melancholia that resonates with me. It's OK to listen to once, but I don't think I'd want two listen any more.

I like Queen, but to my mind, this album has a mix of strong and weak tunes. I think I will add it to my Tidal library, but it's not quite a five-star winner for me.

Love it... And don't know what all the hate is about. My criteria for rating albums in this project is very simple... 1) Did I enjoy listening to it? If no, one star, if yes, two stars. Would I mind if I had to listen to it again? If no, another star. Would I actively seek to listen to it again? If yes, another star. Do I want it in my library/collection? If yes, another star. This album got them all, so, five stars. Thank you!

Nope!...Just nope!!

It's a high three-star album, because I liked it more than Amnesiac, which is a low-three star, but it's a three-star nonetheless. I'd listen to it again, but wouldn't actually seek to do so.

Definitely a Forrest Gump box of chocolates of an album. If I was more enamoured of McCabe's vocals I might have given this five stars. There was some hard candy, some soft centres, and some of those ones that everyone leaves in the box until last. Worth a four, I think.

I'm sure one of the tracks featured fart noises, which is very appropriate as the entire album is shit. One star!

I like Beyonce as a vocalist, so going in, I thought it would be an easy decision to rate this as a five-star album, but in the event I could not. Some of the tracks are very good, but others didn't move me much at all. I think I like the album enough to add it to my Tidal library and give it some more air time, but a four-star rating is the best I can do, I feel.

This project is certainly full of surprises for me. I have always had an aversion to Bob Dylan due to the association of his music with a dark period in my younger days. But in keeping with the spirit of this project, I broke my vow never to listen to his music when this album showed up as my daily offering. And, surprise, surprise, I really enjoyed it. It could even be said to have been a cathartic experience. In fact, I liked this album so much, I'm going to give it five stars and add it to my Tidal library.

I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would. Four stars from me.

One play was enough. This album did nothing for me. Two stars is the best I can afford.

To me, this album seems kind of soulless and just, meh! I'll give it three stars in recognition of the fact that the beachboys were a big deal back in the day, but I won't seek this album out again.

Not really my cup of tea, but there's no denying the talent at work on this album, so I'm going to give it four stars.

Another one that I expected to write off, but which will now get five stars from me. I liked it a lot.

During my initial playthrough of this album, I was frequently interrupted, so had to listen to it a bit at a time over the course of several hours. Initially I didn't like it very much, but about three tracks in, I started to enjoy it. I even saw it as a potential five-star pick. Later in the evening, I was able to give it a full, uninterrupted playthrough, after which I realised that I didn't like it so much after all. In the end, I feel that three stars is appropriate. Perhaps the experience highlights how one's mood and situation affects the appreciation of music, just as much as how music can change one's mood. Interesting!

Good tunes and some good laughs along the way. I enjoyed this album immensely. I'm giving it five stars and adding it to my Tidal library.

The interminable droning of the vocalist handicaps the talented musicianship on this album, ensuring that three stars is the most it will get from me.

Very good. Nice voice, great music, just not my favored genre. But I'll give it four stars.

Great guitar work, which to my mind, warrants four stars on that basis alone. Not so fussed on the vocal work though.

I guess Leonard Cohen is going to appear in my stats as one of those controversial artists, since I enjoyed You Want it Darker so much, and disliked this album immensely. After listening to the aforementioned (Darker), I was really looking forward to listening to more of Cohen's work, but I was to be disappointed, I was glad when this one came to an end.

I like this more than Pet Sounds, which I gave three stars. So I'll give this one four.
