Half the songs are absolutely amazing, the other half are mostly tedious
Good musicians, but damn those jams are long. I don't think I'll ever put this album on by choice.
Good musicians from a technical perspective but they are painful to listen to. I could not make it through the whole album.
Bland, uninspired, and dull -- a slog to listen to. I would never play this album by choice.
Peak Elton John. Not exactly my type of music -- some great songs and some absolute dudes ("Rotten Peaches" sounds like a Dana Carver impersonation)
That was almost the perfect Friday album. Easy to listen to and interesting enough to pay attention to the music.
I will definitely be adding this to my playlist.
Inoffensive but generic country-adjacent pop music. Easy to listen to but I doubt I'll ever have the urge to put this album back on.
What a great album. Hit play again as soon as the it was done.
It's a slog! Out-of-tune singing, pretentious lyrics, uninteresting melodies.
What an amazing way to end the week.
Not bad, maybe a little tedious.
"We have Bob Dylan at home" set to the music of Bruce Springsteen.
A little goofy but genuinely fun. I would have no objections to listening to this album again.
Ended up being surprisingly easy to work to (good rhythm and I didn't understand a word). I don't think I'd play this for other purposes.
Interesting to listen to for a while, but not my kind of music. Gets tedious after the first half-hour or so (90 minute album).
By my self-imposed scoring system, this is either a high-2 or low-3 star rating.
Meh. Nice pleasant songs but nothing I'll bother listening to again.
Please -- no more country music!
That is just awful.
I guess it takes a special kind of prunes to make this kind of turds.
I barely made it through this. The only reason this would get 2 stars would be to leave room on the bottom for garbage like yesterday's album.
This is one of my all-time favorite albums
Not bad. Has some deservedly-famous songs on there.
This is a pretty decent album, but I don't think I'd ever choose this over Strangeways or The Queen Is Dead.
How does bland slop like this become popular?
I guess I could extend this question to Ed Sheeran.
The lyrics are much better than the singing and the music.
I can see why this album would speak to some people, but I don't think I'll feel the urge to listen to it again.
Good album, but not his best. Lacking the cohesion (and weirdness) of some of his other works.
There is a lot of talent on this album, but I'm not sure that the content has aged well.
Cosplaying as Delta Blues.
This album is both unoriginal and uninteresting. Annoyingly, it manages to bring itself down even further by the excessive use of fuzz.
Not as bad as I feared, but also not particularly interesting.
I knew a lot of the songs but I'd never listened to the whole album in order.
I liked this album a lot more than I'd expected! Every song is a nonsensical homage to a different band or music style, but they can all stand on their own merits.
Not my normal music taste, but absolutely an amazing album.
This might be the most repetitive album I've had the displeasure of listening to
Meh.
Guitar-centric folk rock. Pleasant enough, but not my kind of music.
The 80s dripping out of every orifice. I was tired of it less than 5 minutes into the album.
Not necessarily *bad* but just so very, very dramatic.
It's kind of exhausting, to be fair!
Somebody was having a lot of fun making this album. I actually enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would.
Their version of "Comfortably Numb" is so outrageously campy that I can't tell whether it is brilliant or awful.
It's like they couldn't decide whether they wanted to be Led Zeppelin or They Might Be Giants, so they failed at both.
Sucks.
I know it is a historically significant album, but it is also a bit annoying.
Notably better than their normal grunge. I still don't like Cobain's voice, though
That's the most enjoyably weird album I've gotten on this list to date.
Definitely strange and original. Mostly, but not always, good.
This sits well above most of the 70s music that is so heavily represented on this list.
This album is so dull that I may need to recalibrate future ratings.
Competent, but dull, dull, dull!
Maybe it's just not the day for this, but it feels like lame lyrics set to predictable music.
This is killing me!
I knew I didn't like Aerosmith, but I hadn't realized how painful it would be to hear more than one song in a row.
I like that she tried to fit in personal and feminine messaging, but both the music and vocal melodies are very uninteresting
No more 70s rock with lame end-rhymes please!
So, so, so much better than the other 1970s albums in this list so far.
Just ok. There are some standouts there, but most of the album is a little bit tedious.
Once you get past Chris Cornell's voice, the album is actually much more musically interesting than most of the grunge era.
An absolutely exhausting album. I don't recommend doing more than one or two songs at a time (zero tracks might be the optional number).
This album very nostalgic for me. I'm sure I'm rating it higher than I would if I didn't know it so well.
Infuriatingly misogynistic. Not interesting lyrics. Dumb end-rhyme raps.
I hope I never have to listen to this again.
A couple of good songs, but it gets very monotonous after a while.
This is an amazing album!
Cultural appropriation is an anagram of "corrupt liar papulation". This album manages to be both.
Fuck Malcolm McLaren!
Dull and generic psychedelic crud.
I don't think I ever need to listen to this again.
I can't stomach any more Dylan
10 songs that all sound the same.
Argh!
There's way too much f*ing 60's music on this list.
Misogynistic, juvenile, and a slog to sit through.
And, of course, there is Diddy. Fuck that guy!
