1001 Albums Summary

First song, enjoying more than I thought I would. First thought is that I regret not hearing this in middle school, I would have loved it. I like the guitar solos. I like the heaviness. Overall glad I listened!

Boring and dated. Enjoyed 2 songs. Not the hits so much. Overall did not age well to my ears.

Some really wonderful songs on this album. I will never get tired of Dancing Queen. ABBA is so important.

So deliciously weird while still showcasing solid pop sensibilities. Very listenable for being so strange. I particularly enjoy the philosophical POV. In my personal top 50 for sure.

I was in high school when this came out and I was not into it. This kind of pop rock was not something I was drawn to. I thought it was way too mainstream and uninteresting. However, I am at my core a poptimist who wants to enjoy things. I like fun! This is fun. “Somebody Told Me” is an outright banger. I’m hearing some Britpop influence which I appreciate. Overall decent but much more fun at the beginning than the end.

Absolutely captivating. Gorgeous melodies and instrumentation. Played 3 times today. Strangely comforting. Iconic and singular voice. 5/5

One of the all time greats and a personal long time favorite

I did not hate this. Beats were good. I would have loved this in college.

Instant classic

Instant classic

Jarringly beautiful storytelling accompanied by deeply American satire

Hell yeah glam revival

Hate the vocals. Hate the sound. Love the song Drive; I don’t think it’s a particularly good song but it has something. Hate everything else about this. It was fun to roast with my partner, so we kept ourselves entertained.
