On The Beach by Neil Young
Jul 06 2025

I listened to this while hiking in the woods with my mom and dog. I felt like that was a good way to listen to the music because it was less distraction around me. I was able to hear the melodies that had a twang of melancholy but degrees of hopefulness. I did not grow up listening to Neil Young. In discovering this album, I discover parts of myself willingly and able to have new experiences.

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Jul 07 2025

Listened while hanging out in my bedroom, not my cup of tea surprisingly

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Jul 08 2025

This was cool, listened on my way from work, I liked la’America

Jul 10 2025

Listened while walking my dog. I was in a funk mood because of a rude interaction I had with a customer service rep. The music and the walk helped me get out of that feeling. The music was very light-hearted actually, I think I would need to listen to the album more times to get the full story behind some of the lyrics but i actually really liked a couple songs, some might say and hello were ones that stood out. I haven’t listened to everything but so far I like what I’ve heard and what I’m hearing.

Moon Safari by Air
Jul 12 2025

I’ve listened to air before! Cherry blossom girl was my song for a long while last year or so. Listening to this album in my mom’s very hot car because the ac is broken but getting ready to walk my dog midnight. Wanting to get Starbucks or ice cream or something that can cool me down but it’s a typical summer day. Edit: the day was better than anticipated, similar to this album. I like the band air and getting introduced to their debut music was cool. I’m thankful for websites like this random train of thought but this reminds me of how the internet used to be where you can find random websites when you search on google and the first stuff wouldn’t be sponsored. But to the tell you the truth I think I always remember the first two searches being sponsored and when I was in college we were told you should scroll to the next pages to find the real answers to your search. I wish I could share that nostalgia but I recall very similar to what we have now outside of the cookie request on every website. This album felt like something that could have came out this year that’s what air sounds like to me it doesn’t feel defined to a specific era or event, but whenever you as the listener choose to listen to their song, it’s gifted to you to be able to define it yourself. yes I like air and I like this recommendation.

Good Old Boys by Randy Newman
Jul 13 2025

Listening while walking my dog in the morning 10:07am to be exact, stopped under shade ummm??? So as I’m writing this review there was a song that has him saying we are keeping the niggers down???? Like what lmfaoo…. I should have known how this album was going when he mentioned New York Jew and it gave me paused. The album is your typical drunkard who can’t do right by his loved ones and now knows that because they are not around him anymore but somehow he really cares about the south idk that song has thrown me off from the album I wasn’t fully aware of what I’m hearing and when I did realize what he was saying …I’m confused on what’s the purpose of him singing that like if feels like he’s taking pride in the racist backstory of the south which is crazy that this is the same man singing on the Toy Story movie credits about you have a friend in me . I think I partially confused if anything. I don’t really get the point to write a song like that nor do I find it compelling to look past it as most people do with white artist and there casual racism. No one is good enough not to use slurs in there songs so idk it’s kinda lame but throughout most of the songs I was listening to, it sounds like Randy himself saw himself as a loser. Oh well

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jul 16 2025

I really like it!

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Jul 18 2025

Liked the album I feel like there’s several number of bands that have tried imitating the sound that they produced

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Aug 01 2025

Listening to this during my lunch break while drinking a warm caramel macchiato while reading my kindle in my car, as it’s raining. The perfect song for a moment like this. I have a lot of homework for school to do I’m in grad school right now and I work full time as a business system analyst in IT for a natural energy company so the work is always spellbinding. Moments where I can be calm and present are super important to me, I like the particular song I’m hearing now, it’s really nice to hear able to hear it. It’s like becoming yourself again after now being so for a while. Atleast for me

Aug 03 2025

I listened to this album after my boxing class and felt a sense of sadness especially at the song Youth I feel like during the time they were creating this song so much of what the world was known to be had changed so much.. so in a way I felt like that’s what the song and the overall album encapsulates, this feeling of fleeting moments but hoping for the best in the end of course Electric feel is well known to me it’s like the backdrop to so many movie soundtracks I wonder what it was like for them to create these songs and watch it suddenly become a pillar in the sound of 2010’s , that organic growth in being a well know, is it has satisfying as pushing your music through various streams online and watching it become popular through virtuality, I’m sure there’s similarities to what that had to do to accomplish the feat but I sometimes listen to music created during the 2010’s especially the early 2010’s, there was this rawness that I miss hearing, not this feeling that I’m being feed lines that are curated to become popular but it felt personal, and this album feels personal, I’m going to continue to listen to the rest

American Gothic by David Ackles
Aug 06 2025

Listened while I was having an especially coming to terms moment with my life, my job especially since I was on a coffee break on Apple Music they said he resembles Elton John but I felt like he was his own storyteller

The Dreaming by Kate Bush
Aug 07 2025

It’s one of those albums that it has its own musical experience while listening to, it’s not like much I’ve heard before I was listening while making matcha and lunch for myself and matcha for my mom at first I can see people getting irritated with it because soooo unique and different that if your not open minded it kinda like piss you off but when you start to be in tune to the lyrics themselves you(I) start to relax it’s a interesting listening experience

La Revancha Del Tango by Gotan Project
Aug 13 2025

Listen to half of it, has an anxious to the music but I didn’t hate it, I think I would need to listen to more from that artist

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Aug 16 2025

I don’t really like the sound as much, it sounds like music for a movie

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Aug 25 2025

Liked this album a great deal

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Aug 28 2025

Listened as I was walking in the the reservation with my mom and midnight! Different than what I normally listen to but it reminds me of oasis so ofc I prefer oasis

Peter Gabriel by Peter Gabriel
Sep 01 2025

This was cool different

Fun House by The Stooges
Sep 04 2025

I liked down on the street and loose the rest of the album lost me but those two songs I like

Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams
Sep 05 2025

I enjoyed this more than expected… lyrically it holds onto you reminds me slightly of Jeff Buckley without of course the soul crushing soul searching lyrics but I liked the story telling I even downloaded two songs surprisingly

Purple Rain by Prince
Sep 13 2025

I’m definitely not in the majority with this one but I really didn’t like the album? I feel like it was more reflective of the times but didn’t age well it feels like an album from the 80’s not necessarily timeless I know prince is talented but this album wasn’t it for me.

American Pie by Don McLean
Sep 17 2025

I really like this album and I’m Glad I gave it chance some of the songs I’ve heard covers done by other artist like Vincent but never knew it came from him! he had a sweetness to his lyrics that I enjoy hearing I listened while chilling in bed

Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned
Sep 27 2025

Different than what I normally listen again but I liked the energy behind the songs but the lyrics weren’t that flushed out to me it I liked the instruments if they have a instrumental album I would really like that a lot, I listened to this album while walking to my dog

Fear and Whiskey by Mekons
Oct 12 2025

It was alrighttt I think the lead singers voice isn’t agreeable to me like the tone of his voice makes the the songs like spoof like fake songs so idk

Pornography by The Cure
Nov 07 2025

Not my vibe at ALL

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things
Nov 09 2025

At first I was like we have st.peppers lonely hearts club band at home but a few stand outs were ballon burning and o suppose death off the title alone but it wasn’t at ghoulish as you would believe but overall it wasn’t like bad…like a 7.5

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
