Time (The Revelator)
Gillian WelchI couldn't finish this. Every second felt like an hour. Forth song was my limit. If this was sang during campfire I would rather run to forest to be mauled by a bear.

It's like your favourite Disney song but worse!
I wasn't able to unhear the Toy Story song in the end. But overall the album is really decent. Lyrics that could be seen as problematic is nothing new to Disney so i think he found perfect place for himself doing songs for Pixar.
Beatles. It's just that good.
Beatles are perfect band to listen at any point of doing this list. There is so many interesting things going there and even 60 years later most songs still feel fresh and interesting.
I love it. And the obligatory joke is everyone that haven't listened to this album.
I'm actually glad that I heard 'Low' before this album. I think it's huge step up in his style and huge improvement. Could this be peak Bowie? I was thinking about 5 but 'Secrets of Arabia' exists on this album and for me this song is a joke.
Moody tunes that are perfect for Autumn Sunday afternoon
The album is good but comparing first track with any other song on the album is completly unfair. It speaks both for memorability and impact that Bittersweet Symphony has and how the rest songs struggle to even close to that level.
After reading about creating this album you feel like it should be more interesting than it is. Still for the time it was released it seems quite fresh and even today the music still holds up.
When I hear this album i can almost see the producer selling idea for this album as "negro music but comercially viable". Based on this album alone Adele will be forgotten in 20 years but i will cheer her on to create something unique and interesting in the future.
After 70 years the music once energizing and innovative sounds bland and simple. But the voice and singing of Sinatra is still great to this day. Unfortunetly on this album there is almost none of his greatest work. I wish I would hear his different album.
I felt like it should be bland and basic but girls won me over with their energy. You go girl!
Przeczytałem wytłumaczenie co muzycznie robił Pan Drake na tym albumie. I do teraz nie rozumiem co to wszystko oznacza. Ale nie muszę dużo wiedzieć, by zobaczyć pewne piękno w prostocie tej muzyki. Prostocie, która podbija wszystkie emocje. Końcowy efekt to album który porusza serce melancholią, a także uzewnętrznieniem swoich najwrażliwszych myśli. Patrząc na tragiczny koniec autora ciężko mi ocenić czy ta otwartość i wrażliwość wywodzi się z akceptacją i spokojem, czy rezygnacją i marazmem.
I mean It's fineeee
I forgot to write down notes and now I struggle with remembering anything about this album. I think this is also appropriate review of the whole expierience.
I think it's something that requires bpth time and effort to fully apreciate. I will come back to this one day and enjoy it properly I hope.
Great voice and few songs were really good but the overall album sounds like background music in a boring restaurant rather than part of the music history.
If it was a spice it would be a flour. I forgot all songs the next day.
I actually thought i should like it more. It was supposed to be for me, all moody and drug-influenced. But on the other hand it seems rather safe and lacking in energy. Should be a 5. I hope that those junkie-grandpas are doing more suitable drugs for them. I highly recommend cocaine for them.
This is one of few examples where letting a strange man take you on magical trip is a good idea. But to enjoy it to the fullest you have to let Bowie take lead. If you struggle and force it things will be just plain awkward.
Everything that the GoGo Sisters wanted to be. The PInnacle of Mall Pop. Still 4/5. Maybe i'm just not a huge fan of malls. Or Women.
Groovy. Every part of this music is given love and atention it deserves. Rarely listening to this albums i'm thinking about word perfection but this one made it happen.
3,5/5 I can see myself giving it 3 another day.
The more I think about it the more angry I get. It is disgrace to British Rock Music and first album that made me think I wasted my time.
I've never heard album like this before (only samples and nothig more). But it was really good. I won't be going back for more but still I think it is entertaining and creative.
It's hard to put a realistic number on this album when you heard the Beatles. It's such a greate piece compared to some of the entries (unhonourable mention for the Libertines) but it's still far weaker than albums of the band. All I can do is give 4 and blame Yoko Ono like we all do.
It was fun but i would like more USA feel.
I thought that I was clever. I thought that I saw the cover and I was already preparing for some witty comment about boats and hipsters. Oh boy, was I wrong. The album is aggresive with its blandness and mediocrity. I had to check if this band really existed and it's not created by AI labeled as a 'human music'.
I choked myself a little bit to get high and enjoy this album more. It gets my highest score of 'I want to take drugs and listen to it'/10. And also numerical value of 4 stars as I think there are albums that go in that direction but are also better.
I wasn't able to unhear the Toy Story song in the end. But overall the album is really decent. Lyrics that could be seen as problematic is nothing new to Disney so i think he found perfect place for himself doing songs for Pixar.
Finally something I know and I listened to when it came out. Now with new perspective (20 years!) I see it in new light, better light. Maybe I know more about music, maybe I am older and those lyrics hit differently. All in all I love it and I think it is important part of rap history.
I felt like i watched 5 different movies while listening to one album. What a deal!
Is writing that those people are prodigies a good review? No. Becasue pun-based reviews are the opposite of art and the opposite of this album.
It was nice. I didn't hear dog from the cover though. Could be 4.
I guess it's like Michael Bubble of 60's?
I couldn't finish this. Every second felt like an hour. Forth song was my limit. If this was sang during campfire I would rather run to forest to be mauled by a bear.
I think this album well deserves a spot on the list. This is music that will be remembered years later. I think you can take off layers of each track and find something better and better every time. I was a fool to sleep on Kendrick Lamar and it's an easy 5.
It's like your favourite Disney song but worse!
I judge more harshly things that I love (if I have children in the future i'm sorry for them). That's why it's a strong 4.
Alternative music sang by a girl with great voice. This is just a baseline where I would give 4 but this album is so much more.
Album is good but not spectacular it's 3,5/5 for me. Customary joke was censored by me because phonetic simillarity of slay and slave doesn't look good in writing.
It's reggae! Kill it with fire! Even if it's more intresting compared to others within genre I still cannot go higher than 2.
Today I was at the gym where I listened to overproduced pop music and watched uninteresting music videos posing as something crazy or controversial. Then I listen to THIS. This album is fucking dirty, drag-me-through-the-mud dirty. For me it's my one-sided love story where I fell for homeless hobo obsessed with heroin. I see future nights full of anger, self-destructive whispers and dreams of heating spoons full of delicious, delicious heroin.
4,5/5 but I'm giving 5 because spotify played live version which I couldn't believe
Beatles. It's just that good.
Girls doing punk is probably one on my favourites genres ever. I love the energy and vocals. Album is uneven but it has decent kick. Not a masterpiece but I'm a slave to my unoriginal but specific taste.
It was fun.
I thought it was brother of Optimus Prime and this will be some kind of techno music but it;s country. Decent country but I feel it's lacking something that would elevate it to the next level. 3 for you Mister John maybe try your luck in being a car or something.
No joy nor division. The album is mid. There was a moment when I was suprised to hear something more engaging but I found out that the album was over and it was random rock song.
Mayby it was important album for Brasil but not for me. I was going for 3 but I will give it 2 for stealing spot from someone better. Spotify played much better songs (including his own) after this album. And after some more thinking I will bump it back to 3. There shouldn't be punishment for creating music in non-English speaking country.
Is that like Christian Rock or something? After watching South Park I would expect more. After few days I only remember hallelujah song. "Well, there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me, do ya? But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too" I thought this song was about Ogres and Onions and not about raping a child after First Comunion. Good for you Jeff, don't show what's going on down below. I'm glad that years of therapy allow you to put boundries.
Two Graces in the row? What is it? A penance after Confession? Did I steal this joke? Yes. Did I write it in a Mr Peanutbutter voice? Also yes. But nobody can stop me. Also nobody can stop me from giving this album its' deserved 3. The story behind recording is far more intresting than what you can hear in music. Wide variety of artist Mr Graceland cooperated with resulted in very mixed final product or maybe he is the weakest link in all of that.
It was fine, the song with ka-ching and gun was cool and no wonder it was a hit. I don;t know if Miss Mia became popular but from this album I would say it's a one hit wonder.
Caroline I treated you too harshly, you are no Giligan Welch. You are a perfect 3, cozy, safe and pleasant.
Moderate trails.
Nie wiem co można więcej dodać po komentarzach innych, cieszę się, że tego przesłuchałem. Na pewno coś co bardziej trafia w gusta pretensjonalnych ludzi, którzy używają określeń jak "audialny labirynt" niż przeciętnego słuchacza. Ale siłą tego albumu chyba nie jest nawet jakość muzyki, ale niezwykle ciekawy i niepowtarzalny (dla mnie?) styl, który powoduje, że przesłuchanie tej płyty było przeżyciem. Odpaliłem płytę jeszcze raz po przesłuchaniu, co rzadko mi się zdarza i ciągle odnajdywałem coś innego.
There is a lot variety on this album but it's not working for this band. I think with limited range you should stick with your strong points. 2,5/5. +1 for female vocal cause I love this shit - 1 for having a woman in band
Bob Marley. The begining. The root of all the Reggae in the World. Although I want to give bad score just for the memes I can't. There is a reason why he became the Classic and still it's not peak as he will produce even better albums after this one.
This is how I imagine frappucino or hapiness taste like. I wouldn't take it away from someone else but it just doesn't sit well with me.
This album is good. There are few songs so good it would bump up the rating but I like how well they are spread aparat giving you a chance to enjoy whole album.
When i go back to albums I haven't had a chance to hear I pick two types. Albums that seems like a great music or something that I can write funny comment about. This was the second type and joke is on me. By seeing folk as a genre with this old couple on the cover I was already preparing commetns about beating myself with a brick instead of listening to this. But today I decided to see a brick half full.
I have a theory. And I won't check if it's true because this is how internet is supposed to work. I think that someone wanted samba music but for white people. Looks the same but is bland and uninteresting but I want to believe that samba music has something more to offer.
Was this album timel... Shut up, the joke today is ketamine. Shoutout to the track 'Kemistry'. I felt like I'm playing some cool 90s' game and I just kinda forgot I listened to this the next day. Working as intended.
I knew Mr Gaye earilier but I haven't had a chance to listen to his full album. After this honestly... nothing changed. Sometimes you see things like coldplay here and you question credibility of this whole endevour. The Man is a classic for a reason and has no wonder he earned a spot or two on this list.
Zespół brzmi jakby ironicznie się dobrze bawili i nieironicznie to kocham.
I thought I will like it more. It was fine.
Fun times with nostalgic feel. Still it feels like it gives something more to the style from the past and not just recreating it.
Fun ride, there is a lot going on on this album. I feel that if i found it in my teens it would have great impact on my music taste but this spot was taken by other songs. Solid 4/5.
Sometimes you wonder what were British people cooking with all this inbreading on the island. But when you hear british punk you just accept it beacause it was all worth it.
IT'S THE SONG FROM THE THING!!! This left so strong impression that I barely remember anything else. I think the music was a little bit whimsical?
Yeah boiiiiiiiii!!!!!
I thought this album would be something. Something good or terrible but I didn't expect this boring lame-ass music. After this I see myself siding with the War to bring down U2.
Wow you can do political message and good songs at the same time? If only U2 knew that...
Bob Marley at his best i think. Well it's a classic and there is no better reagge than this.
Another chance for some virtue signalling which is pretty great for me. Giving it 5 is easier when the songs are great though.
Most forgettable music in history. I have vague memory of listening to it.
Love it. It's iconic, i know this rage and i want it. 5/5 i want to throw a brick right now.
Płyta brzmiała dla mnie lekko egzotycznie i po zgooglowaniu tematu okazało się, że to fiński zespół, a płyta została wydana przez japońskie studio. Cały krążek ma bardzo świeże brzmienie i po prostu przyjemnie się tego słucha, porządny kawałek rocka lat 80'.
A delightful jazz album.
The cover is the most intresting part of this album it wasn't bad it wasn't really great. It existed and I listened to it.
Nie wiem czy to demencja czy już wymyślam coś, żeby tu pisać, ale wydawało mi się, że słyszałem vibe rocka z przełomu lat 80/90 z Polski. I zastanawiam się czy to inspiracja czy coś, kto wie może któregoś dnia poznam odpowiedź... album spoczko btw.
Baby rap - so cute <3. But we have an interesting dilemma here. Do we judge a newborn baby for being weaker than a grown person? Yes. 3/5.
