Cover 6 Got bops. Never heard this before. Pretty good 90s EDM.
Album cover is meh. 1. Catchy. Great song. Nostalgic. 2. Ok. Pretty flat throughout. No ups or downs. 3. Also, meh, overall, generally not making much of an impression. 4. Radio hit. Unique interesting, like song 1. Good beat. Fun lyrics. 5. Their biggest hit I think. Also funky, fun, great beat. 6. Dark. Mysterious. Like it. 7. Daniel Johnston-esque. Reminds me of a country/blues singer I can't place right now. A tempo change! 8. Fun. Tempo changes here and there. Guitar solo. Head bopper. Bluesy. 9. Space oddity synths. So David Bowie. The chorus saved this from being boring. 10. Also good. Fun. OVERALL: the best songs are on side A with two of the weakest songs. 7/10.
Cool cover 1. Into. 2. Cool opening. Chill. About the lyrics more than music. Political. 3. Music is jazzy. With a flute. Lyrics can be a bit corny re "don't mess with me," "I hella rap bruh." Ok. Just not original. 4. Cool drum opening. Another "we cool" but it's good and a bop. Nice. 5. Into. 6. Funky. Master blaster. They said that. But s head bopper. 7. Also good bop. By now though the promise of the album title and the first song re political issues is so far lacking. They are talking more about themselves. 8. Nother shot caller song. It's good but .. 9. Ridiculous song. Harry met Sally? 10. Same shit. Not a bopper. Don't put your kids on the album. J/k. It was cute but the song was meh. 11. Funky but sounds same. The chorus lifts it up some. Otherwise, doesn't stand out. 12. Finally political. But otherwise lyrics aren't too creative. An ok song. 13. Spoken poetry. Cappin'. Ok. 14. Linda, you a birch. Wherever. 15. Don't care. 16. Doesn't stand out. 17. Funky best. Instrumental for the most part. OVERALL: An ok album. Some fun tracks but not for me.
Cover is ok. Boring but not too lame I guess. 1. Fun song. A cover? Also over played in so many movies. 2.ok. Breathe esque. 3. Great blues song but without the blues. So... 4. Ok. I suppose I have to be in the mood but then I'd just listen to Weyes Blood or something. 5. If this way sung by a better blues singer Γt world rock. It's OK as is. 6. A cover of a great song. Doesn't improve on the original but if you can sing then it's still good. And he can sing just fine. 7. Another cover. Decent. But honestly this song is a campy novelty. 8. Good cover of a good song. 9. This is funky. I like it. 10. Ok song. OVERALL: An average album with one or two highlights.
Nice enough cover. 1. Ok song. 2. Nice, beat. Their most famous. Good song. 3. Good song. Decent lyrics. 4. This is a miss, but only barely. Like the concept but the simplicity of the lyrics kills it. 5. Also a miss and also almost. 6. Ok. Passed by without mm making much of an impression. 7. Ditto. 8. Nice song. Lyrics are good ish 9. Also good night vbe great if I'm in the mood. OVERALL: A relatively decent album but most of the songs didn't hit, not for me.
Iconic cover. 1. Actually like this. Took a few listens (and several years) to realize this. 2. Great song. 3. Great song. Is this about Nico? 4. Also good song. 5. Fun song. Interesting guitar. 6. Good song. Also about Nico? 7. Good. 8. Ok. 9. Ok. 10. Is Bob Dylan influenced by TVU? An ok song. 11. Funky guitar. They actually bother to play guitar more than usual. They really don't care about instrumentation at all. OVERALL: An excellent album. Liked it more than I remember.
Cover is whatever. 1. Into. 2. Funky. Fun. Good song. Maybe great. 3. Funny. Also sad. Also good song. 4. Good song. Entertaining. 5. Radio hit. Still good. Lyrics are not π― but close. 6. Good song. 7. Ok. I'm no gangsta, but a cool song. 8. Ok. 9. Music is interesting. I kinda like it. energetic throughout 10. Interlude. Cute kids. 11. Ok. 12. Interlude. It is what it is. 13. Meh. 14. Great song. Great lyrics. Great beat tempo. Probably didn't need JAY-Z. 15. Interlude. This one's kinda stupid. 16. Meh. On second listen, I like it. Mellow. 17. Interlude. It is 18. Upbeat and fun. Better than ok. 19. Postlude. 20. Into. Ok. 21. Ok. Just gott fun, I guess. 22. Interlude. For over two minutes. FYI, he's a cool guy. Never cheated. Except that one time (and probably every time). Sweet bitches, am I right? LOL. 23. Funky, fun. This shit is funny. 24. Whatever. 25. His play or something. And you is a ho, bitch. Is this supposed to be serious? 26. Also, whatever. Does Andre know he's fucking hilarious? 27. LOL. Ok. 28. Radio hit. Great song. Oddly, doesn't fit the album because it's not absurd. 29. Also great. Also, like the previous song, like Andre put down the pipe (or picked it up) and wrote a song that wasn't entirely "huh?" Taking a look at the credits, Big Boi clearly tempers Andre's weirdness. And can make his. 30. Interlude. He's being intentionally funny, I know this now. 31. The opening to The Love Below is weird and there's too much of it before getting to "good" music. I don't know if Andre knew this, but Big Boi definitely did. This is a pretty good song but a bit flat. 32. Whats. 33. Not bad but not great. 34. Again, I don't think Andre is the hit maker. This is whatever. 35. Weird topic, if course, but a good song. 36. Letter. Whatevs. 37. Jazzy. Classical . But seems like filler. 38. Norah Jones! Good song. Maybe great. 39. Chill. I can read a book while this plays. So... 40. Whatever. OVERALL: Big Boi might be more grounded than Andre 3000. Speakerboxxx half has ok songs. With one great song. The Love Below half has great songs interspersed with whatever shit. Making this an average album.
Ugly cover. 1. It's an ok song. Can be fun. However, I almost hate it. After a couple of listens, I got used to his singing voice. I hate it less. 2. Actually not bad. 3. See 1. 4. This song is trying too hard to be deep. 5. Ok. 6. this isn't bad. 7. Deep-eaque. Otherwise acceptable. Sort of. However, very skippable. 8. Same. These songs remind me of Bard songs. I don't really care for the tale. 9. The title track. So hippie. It's ok. Skip though. 10. Kinda waiting for this to end. No, not kinda. I'm waiting for this to end. Skip. 11. Ok, I guess. OVERALL: This is a skip for me. I'm fine having listened to it but not necessary an album to listen to before I die. It's a no for me, bro.
Ugly cover. 1. Reminds me of Foreigner but not as good. Like the guitars in the chorus but not the chorus The break is also meh. 2. So they mimic/ mock popular music of the time. The musicianship is good. This song is either too weird or not weird enough. It's kinda ok. It's interesting in some spots. I just don't care. 3. After the stupid intro it's actually good. Fun but still... There's so much better music. 4. Not bad. 5. Not bad. I mean not horrible. Can be fun if in the mood for this shit. I'm not atm. 6. Same. 7. Like the opening. That's it. Stupid lyrics. 8. Whatever. Dumb. 9. Whatever. 10. Funky head bop. Stupid shit also. OVERALL: Not interested. There's good musicianship but they're too concerned with making fun of music than making good music.
Cover ok 1. No. 2. No. 3. No. 4. No. 5. No. 6. No. 7. Almost but No. 8. No. 9. No. 10. Meh. 11. No. 12. No. OVERALL: Fantastic album! Not! Every song is about nothing. It's campy for the sake of campy. Weird and different for the sake of weird and different. If it's about the music then make it instrumental. If it's about the lyrics then make them "about something." Even better, do both. Maybe I just need to be in the mood. This just isn't my cup of tea.
Cover. Is what it is. 1. Funky music. Love it. Don't hate the lyrics. 2. Ah, the Dr. Feelgood from back in the day! An ok song, really. 3. Main theme. Cool song. Still, just ok for me. 4. Instrumental. Very seventies. Cool jazzyness. 5. Not great lyrics but otherwise ok song. 6. Ok. 7. Good song. Works with the movie, specifically. 8. Instrumental. Ok. 9. Title song but not the main theme? Also cool. OVERALL: songs work for the movie but outside of that, most of the songs are just OK.
Interesting cover. 1. On second listen, kinda like it.. 2. Decent song with ok lyrics. I do like it. 3. This can pass with barely any notice. Meh. 4. Like it. Unfortunately true lyrics. 5. Not bad. 6. Meh. 7. Like it 8. Meh. 9. Whatever. 10.Ok..11. Meh. OVERALL: I just couldn't concentrate. When I did, t was ok. I think with multiple listens I would actually like this album, but I won't ever love any of the songs. Not a must.
Cover: 1. 1. No. This list really leans to only a certain type of person. Not at all open to other forms of music except here and there. 2. Ok song. I'm not the target audience for this list though. 3. There really are albums I like, like Blue, Joni Mitchell. Or Grace, Jeff Buckley. James Taylor. Etc. Why am I only getting this crap? I absolutely don't need to have listened to these befor dying. 4. Puff Puff Pass. 5. Next. 6. Is music stupid? 7. Well is it? Is it dumb, dum dum boink or no? 8. No. It's not. But yes. Blegh. 9. What happened in the 60s that this was done to humanity? No war? Was that the problem? 10. No. I'm out of the mood. I rather listen to backstreet boys. 11. So impatient. Might have to quit this damn list. 12 Yell you children to make a new edition of this book. .
Cover: 7. I don't know much about jazz. I've liked live jazz music. I could get into this. The bass sounds all over the place. He plays like how Elaine Bernice dances. Maybe I don't get it. OVERALL: it's ok. Almost there, except the bass throws me off
Cover: 5 Can easily fall asleep to this. They're all ok. Nothing stands out to me, not on first listen.
Cover: 6 I can't just jump into a genre and listen to it as if with fresh ears. I have to be in a mood. Generally, classical, jazz, any instrumental music I only use while reading. On occasion I might listen to it for pleasure. Very rarely.
Cover: 7 Ok overall. Seems to be another experimental music album. There's only one, maybe two songs that I liked but nothing special.
Cover: 8 Starts with the familiar songs. The first two are slower than I remember but still decent. I liked Weanie Beanie and Watershed. Fun sons. Lyrics are nonsense but fun.
Cover: 6 This had some decent songs. Title track is the best. Overall, mostly ok songs.
Cover: 8.5 A classic that I've actually heard of. Excellent music overall. A good chill album.
Cover 6 All songs are golden. Thunder Road and Born to Run are great, familiar. First time listening to this in it's entirely. Glad I for did. Thumbs up.
Cover: 5 Great album. Not all are great but some great songs I've never heard before. Highlights: Wearing the Loved On Look, Power of My Love, and Suspicious Minds. Also, Only three Strong Survive and In the Ghetto.
Cover: 4 It's ok. It took several listens for me to even pay attention. Not my style of music but it was ok for what it was.
Cover: 5 Have to do multiple listens. The first listen didn't do it, but the second, I got into some of the songs. First six tracks are really just one long song. I guess the second half would be one or two long songs also. It's pretty cool, if you've got the time. The concert is available on YT. Very much worth it if you like this album.
Cover: 7 Great album. Several radio hits, spaced out perfectly. The other lesser known are also good, so it's doesn't slog things down.
Cover; 5 Great album. No skips.
Cover 7 First half is good. My mind wandered during the second half. Would help with a second or third listen but for now, it's OK
Cover: 3 Good experimental chill album. Not spectacular, at least on first listen.
Cover 6 Good songs. Overall, a good album but not great. Many of the songs sound like typical rock-era songs. Highlights: (She's A) Runaround and I Know a Girl.
Cover 7 Some good songs. Maybe one or two great songs. Overall, ok.
Cover 8 An ok album. on first listen, only one or two songs caught my attention. Over all, no bad songs but nothing great.
Cover 4 Some good songs. Musicianship is awesome.
Cover 5 The Doors meets Led Zeppelin. Great album.
Cover 6 Heard the name before but never listened. Didn't realize they were more of an 80s hair metal band from the 90s. They came out in the wrong decade for sure. Not bad. I'm no longer into that music but growing up I definitely was a "butt rocker." Now, I rarely listen too this genre and mostly for nostalgia. Otherwise, decent album.
Cover 6 Decent songs. Good album from an influential band. Better upon second listen.
Cover 6.5 Great album. Queen meets Scorpions.
Cover 6 Used to love them. I'm over it. Still a good album but I probably won't return to it.
Cover 7 Damn some of the songs are looong. Guess that was the trend back then. At least there are only seven songs. Good album. In the right mood, yes, very chill, nice. Kick back and enjoy.
Cover 6 Good album. I know some people love this one. I wouldn't say I love it. The theme is consistent throughout but not one I would listen to often. Marvin has a lot of "great" songs spread out over a lot of "good" albums.
Cover 7 Interesting. Can be fun. Don't know if I'd come back to it again. Maybe.
Cover 5 The songs aren't horrible but too hippie-ish for me. Some cheese lyrics. Some of it is cringey although with good intentions I'm sure.
Cover 5.5 Great album. Fun songs. Generally not my era but really like this album.
Cover 7 Overall, not bad. Some really cheesy songs though. Not really my thing, though they're good unto themselves, I guess.
Cover 6 Some fun songs. Not King of Rock but good.
Cover 5 Liked this more than I thought I would but still this doesn't belong on this list.
Cover 6.5 Doesn't entirely live up to expectations or up to time. But it's not 80s "butt rock" or 70s disco which faired worse as far standing the test of time. Granted both disco and butt rock found their niche here and there, but 90s alt has yet to be scorned and reviled at similar levels (save one or two rock groups who people simply enjoy hating on (Nickelback, etc.). Overall, I'm glad I listened to this album. I didn't care for it when it originally came out, but I was less open than I am now.
Great album. Some of my faves are not the radio friendly ones but I like those too.
Cover 7 Fun album but I probably wouldn't listen to it again.
Cover 6 Great songs. Could've been a great one but I can't stand Ooby Dooby. Ugh. Don't care for My Baby Left Me either.
Cover 6 I feel like the songs could be reordered as a chronology of a relationship. As it is, they seem a bit out of order,. But overall a good album.
Cover 5 This doesn't belong here. An ok album but no way a must listen.
Cover 4 Velvet Underground meets the Doors. Like it more then I thought I would. Good album. Great even.
Cover 7 Like the guitar. Funky.
Cover 6 Interesting and different. In a good way. Didn't know Pharrell Williams was part of this group. Cool.
Cover 6 I like African music like Baba Maal. This is right there with it. Solid album.
Cover 5 Great music basically about nothing or whatever just tunes to bop to.
Cover 8 Iconic album. A strong album. At least a good start. Dies a bit toward the end even though those are still good songs.
Cover 6 Got bops. Never heard this before. Pretty good 90s EDM.
Cover 7 Nice mellow album. No bad songs really except that a lot of it seems to melt together, like one song. He also tends to sing exactly the same in several songs despite the guitar being slightly different. They're basically Pink Moon over and over again, which is a great song, unto itself. Anyway, decent but not revolutionary or all that necessary.
Cover 7 Rid of Me but not 4-Track Demos (Harvey's reinterpretation without interference from the producer, supposedly)? I'd call this Suicide Punk. There's languid darkness, agony, anger,, angst. I really like this album but sometimes it's too intentionally muddy and dumbed down (the drums are are just bashing) as if mimicking 70s 80s self-recordes underground punk, which were cheaply done with crap equipment and not necessarily a lot of talent (musicianship-wise). i get it. It's an aesthetic, one I like actually but not always and only for so long. .
Cover 5 Not familiar with their catalog except Red Red Wine, and that didn't get me curious enough to check them out. Didn't realize how political they were or could be. It's nice relaxing album.
Cover 6 Great album. Can listen all the way through, no skips. "Hotwax" is sorta whatever but tolerable. That's probably the weakest song for me. Otherwise, great album.
Cover 7 Great songs, great album. No skips for me. Musicianship is average/ decent (nothing spectacular) but lyrics are good. The overall effect however is a great album
Cover 7 Good album. No bad songs but only two Paranoid and Iron Man are repeats. Others are ok. Maybe OK+.
Cover 8.5 Yep. Grew up with this album. All are great songs.
Cover 5 My favorite. Great. Nuff said.
Cover 6.5 Started out strong-ish... then meh... and finally... stupid. Thanks Iggy! π
Cover 6 Yes! Fun songs though no real substance. So... Just for fun only
Cover 7 Good but several songs sound similar / bleed into another. A great dark anthem though.
Cover 7 Not a fan. Sometimes Tom Waits can seem pretentious. There's some of that here. Not much though. Still, he kinda annoys me.
Cover 6.5 Chill. Didn't hate it.
Cover 7.5 Great love album. Totally dig it.
