I think this easily enters the top 10 most enjoyable albums in this entire lineup up 1001 albums
The Dreaming

5/5
"Sat In Your Lap" definitely gave me some Sinnerman piano vibes, which was my favorite throughout the album with "The Dreaming" itself. Overall a very fun album. Upon some research, i've also found out that she produced the entire album by herself, which gains my utmost respect for an experimental album that went out in 1980s.

Not my thing. Understandable that it's one of the most influential, as it heavily influenced shoegaze and indie pop, but for me not only this album is extremely raw, the songs it heavily influenced are the ones i particularly don't like.

Look the rest of the album is really fine, but Hong Kong Bar and Make It Right are just songs on a VERY different level.
