1001 Albums Summary

LOVE’S IN NEED OF LOVE TODAY- really cozy and vibey track. I love the message. Playlisted. HAVE A TALK WITH GOD - liked this one a lot! I’m not religious so it probably hits even harder for those who are. I like how he added the female voice, really put the icing on the cake for me. Was a little thrown off at the start cause of the instrumental but I like weird songs. Only complaint is that it’s too short. Playlisted. VILLAGE GHETTO LAND - As a band kid I like the instrumental, but it’s a bit boring for me. I found it hard to keep my focus on the song. The topic is important and I’m surprised someone was making a song about it in 1976! Didn’t love the singing over the instrumental though, for some reason it didn’t quite match for me. Missed the playlist. CONTUSION - This is the kind of instrumental I always imagined when I thought of Stevie wonder (as someone who had never listened to him before) aside from band songs I don’t listen to a lot of music without words, but I do have a study playlist so this is definitely going on there. Might start dancing though! Playlisted. SIR DUKE - love this one! It just has such a great vibe that makes you want to get up and go skip down the street like the main character of a movie :) great message, music really does bring everyone together! Playlisted. I WISH - man this one really just lifts your mood! This is a song to play first thing in the morning to lift my spirits before I have to go out and face the world. Playlisted. KNOCKS ME OFF MY FEET - wasn’t sure about this one at first, but the chorus got me. Oh I don’t wanna bore you~ I love you I love you I love you~ super sweet song and very chill to listen too. Playlisted. PASTIME PARADISE- well I was today years old when I learned that gangsters paradise wasn’t the original lol. This one’s better in my opinion. Love how it’s talking about how we live in the past a lot and need to just live in the moment. Playlisted. SUMMER SOFT - The chord progression in this one is genius! I find myself just walking around my house singing “winter’s gone~” Playlisted. ORDINARY PAIN - I have to say, was not expecting that switch up! I really enjoyed the feature, whoever she is, she killed it. “I won’t panic~” Playlisted. ISN’T SHE LOVELY - wow I’ve definitely heard this and just didn’t know it was Stevie wonder! Such a good song, it makes me want to have kids so I can feel what this kind of love feels like. I really feel the harmonica in my soul. Playlisted. JOY INSIDE MY TEARS - I’m not sure why but this one just didn’t hit for me. I found it boring, not as emotion provoking, and I don’t think it needed to be as long as it is. Not Playlisted. BLACK MAN - super funky! Loved the breakdown and the message is really important. It was relevant in 1976 and is still relevant now. Playlisted. I AM SINGING - really liked the instrumental on this one. Was so close but just barely missed the playlist. IF IT’S MAGIC - beautiful song, the harp is gorgeous. Everlasting music. Playlisted. AS - this song feels like pure poetry. I love how he changed his tone in the middle of it. Playlisted. ANOTHER STAR - wow so many genres in one song! I loved the flute towards the end, though maybe I’m biased because I play flute. Good track, but I don’t quite like it enough for the playlist. SATURN - such a beautiful song! Great lyricism. Underrated in my opinion. Playlisted. EBONY EYES - this song sounds like it meant a lot to black girls and women! It’s just not for me. Not Playlisted. ALL DAY SUCKER - pure funk! Loved this. Playlisted. EASY GOIN’ EVENING - this sounds like a song for the credits of a sitcom. Sounds great, just not something I would come back to every day. Not Playlisted. WOW this was an amazing album! Solid 9/10

This sucks lol not my thing. It’s still listenable though
