i like it because my girlfriend liked it
human nature went through my body like cocaine...
THIS WAS NOT THAT BAD....it's not their best but it made me want to get a coffee in williamsburg nonetheless
this is what smoking a cigarette and getting a dollar slice in nyc in 2001 probably felt like and i want to be there...this is what mary kate and ashley's new york minute felt like for everyone who couldn't get the simple plan tickets but still had a subway pass and a dream...
it was pretty good, but i wished it had more otis
i'm sure this is important heritage music but 45 minutes into this i literally checked to make sure i hadn't left spotify on repeat track because it all sounded the same to me
i didn't hate this but this is like one of those albums that you find out your parents are passionately in love with and their eyes light up and they start fighting you if you say you didn't think this was 5 stars
you're going to hate me but i liked this album and had fun listening to all of the things that turned out to be samples that i heard of in other places...but the things i liked the most were like the mbaqanga music and the early hip hop and he didn't credit those people so bye
if i liked lord of the rings i would probably enjoy this...
words cannot describe how jarring that imagine cover was in the middle of this album
i may be harsh on this one because i saw travis kelce's gq shoot while this was playing and it pissed me off, sorry
this is a fun album, hard to believe they were making this and listening to janet jackson's control, they just like me fr
the mexican community made some points on this one
time after time alone puts this in the upper tier, we have quite literally NO choice but to stan
i was about to give this album a 5 because the vibes on the first half are giving parisian cafe lattes and smokes which is MY VIBE but the rap track completely derailed things for me and made me contemplate my life and taste so i have to dock stars but i'm definitely going to listen to the first half of this album again in the future
it was so good i truly HATE oppression!!!!
maybe my dad made a few points with this one
i am so tempted to give this a 5 just to balance things out but this album is so good...this is what the korean couple who was smoking while listening to music was listening to, i can just feel it........KEEP THE CAR RUNNING CHANGED ME........
i actually didn't hate this album and the last track gave me chills and really made me feel something, i just don't like folk. at the end of the day he was right and you really DO need to love the one you're with so tens on that
this was really fun, it had the vibes of one of the 60s era disney movies singing about the characters...i started getting into it and vibing and grooving....
other than the title track this started to run together for me, maybe the songs needed to stay APART
I HATED THIS IN WAYS I CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO ENUNICATE the casual misogyny that goes so far beyond what we even think of as being in hip-hop at the time, the same flow for an hour. it just makes me mad that people can get so mad about injustice that directly affects them and then turn around and continue to oppress the groups that they have leverage over, like i know he wasn't calling women ugly on this cd DID HE OWN A MIRROR?!?!?!?!
this was good but i never want to hear making whoopee again in my life
this isn't my favorite nerd album and i hate how this site doesn't do half stars because this is like a 3.5 for me. good charlotte were a jumpscare, i did not remember them being on this
i didn't hate this but spotify started playing their next album after this on autoplay and it was so much better that i had to dock this a star, they started JAMMING on that one
i'm not a huge classic jazz guy but i imagined being a bachelor in 1957 and putting this on as i sat down to read before getting ready to go out and holler at the broads at the juke joint and it truly made me feel something
i had fun but wished amy winehouse were singing all these songs instead
i saved a song from this to my playlist and it was blue skies and i want to dedicate it to my girlfriend!!!
HE MADE ME MAD TRYING TO STEAL SOMEONE'S GIRL ON THIS but i can't stay too mad at someone this sexy
i listened to this twice on accident because i had forgotten i ever listened to it the first time.
the rockafeller skank alone samples i fought the law, david bowie and jay-z. this man was operating on another stratosphere with this came out
thank you tony hawk we love you
this album is making it so hard to defend to my girlfriend that this group actually has bangers once you get past this gingerbread man ahh album...

listening to this reminded me of rihanna's titties in the all of the lights video 🚬
impossible for me to not cry at cranes in the sky. i wonder if tarzan has ever listened to this.
this album sounds like england to me (derogatory) (complimentary)
how many songs did this man write about his father over the course of his life....like was everything ok at home....
crack and weed feels like a crazy combination
i love the life story of this italian uncle and while this wasn't for me my girlfriend loves him so i do too
i'm not even usually a cure hater but NO....every song was 40 mins long and took double that time off of my life
not my fav xx album but this album feels like the late 00s in such an insane way, i need it in my veins, time to let the trap beats go and go back to THIS
i'm so disappointed because i love the title track but the rest of this was all blues like bro what i just want to REBEL against my parents and old people
giving it a star for being good background music while i worked. i cannot think of a single album that meets 'scaring the hoes' criteria for my girlfriend more than this.
i liked the easy breezy aura of this, this is one of those albums you listen to on an evening drive when it's good vibes only as the sun sets on the horizon
unfortunately this was amazing and if i had been in the gym while this was on i would have pushed 3 plates easily
i'm sure i listened to this but i couldn't tell you a thing about it...sorry to this band. actually, that's a lie, i mistakenly listened to the remastered version which had 4 different mixes of the same song for different vinyl sizes so it's seared in my memory now
subtracting 1 star solely because of THIS DICK AIN'T FREE yes i am a hater
she ate and left no crumbs and not only that, she washed the plate afterwards and put it back in the cupboard and no one has even remotely come close to eating off of that plate since
i saw 'british' and 'indie' and thought i was going to prepare to snore, but this one had a couple of bangers i wasn't prepared for
i didn't want to like this but simple man was good and there's something about that solo on free bird that did make me want to grow a rat tail and drink a coors light
truth be told, it is entirely possible i will never revisit this album again in my life but i'm giving it 5 stars because for over an hour i was amazed at what a masterclass in performance this album was. impeccably sang, performed, and mixed. this is almost as good as high school musical: the concert: the album...
this got me hyped up from the second i heard bring the noise but it's so funny to me there's a track on here berating women for watching soap operas and not watching real tv like....football....i need us to be so serious right now
just hearing dancing queen makes you believe there's still a little hope left for this crazy world of ours
probably my favorite album yet that we've had, i was a mild thundercat fan before this from features but it blew me away how much i liked this and how smooth i found it so it's going in my rotation immediately, hope you're prepared...
i kept waiting for someone in the corner....for someone in the spotlight....losing their religion, if you will
such a good album from the most underrated mc of our time we love you missy gossip folks is a classic
the nice thing about hardcore punk is that it never outstays it's welcome, this album was done before i could even finish making my breakfast and i enjoyed making my eggs to this
boring...but in the good way. i was locked in while this was on, office space had nothing on me
what is this man even saying...thank god the music is good
i forgot what this album sounded like 2 minutes after it ended
i'm biased but this is me and my baby's album so deal with it
you can definitely see the influence for other groups when you listen to this and frankly i just like the title
rip freddie mercury but this is just a little too british for me, and i don't mean that in a positive way
did this feel like i was listening to the same thing after a while yes but did i enjoy it? also yes. imagine how i felt saying "this is so french" while listening to this and then googling and finding out i was 100% correct, my parisian version of gaydar NEVER fails me
totally enjoyable while i was listening to it and then i went downstairs for a drink of water and came back and had absolutely no recollection of anything i had listened to.
melancholy but soothing, it grows on you but beck is just not for me. i hope he's having a good day though
transgressive and important to have a smoke to in a gay club. are justice the final bosses of sampling?
this album has a song about price tag by jessie j and we really need to LET THAT SOAK IN
endlessly listenable, danceable, and important to 00s indie. where would we even be right now without mr. brightside, i shudder to think....the uk might not even exist at all.......
look. i know this album was influential and ambitious. i get it's high concept and genuinely artful. the process of actually listening to it as music is harrowing.
i liked this more when i read the story behind it and saw what it was trying to accomplish as a side-a side-b experience but i didn't actually enjoy the experience of listening to this
i'm almost certain my girlfriend gave this a horrible score but 'what she said' is the anthem for smoking on a balcony in the rain at 3am knowing you have to go to work the next day and for that i cannot give this a low score
this album is good and dirty diana/smooth criminal is a crazy 1-2 punch but listening to this album front to back made me feel like i was trapped inside of a sega genesis console. anyway stream liberian girl
have you ever been listening to your rap mix and thought 'wow, i really wish some common would shuffle in right about now'
i was going to give it a star for god of thunder but then took it away because kiss suck and gene simmons is a horrible person. if these clowns don't take themselves seriously, why should i...
this is perfectly acceptable dad rock although nothing will ever prepare you for the unedited lyrics to money for nothing as sting croons about mtv over slurs
listening to this and finding out there was a manson connection to even this trite piece of fluff really contextualizes how insane the 60s were overall
history. legendary. never been done better. no better song to smoke to while pontificating on the nuances of your girlfriend being a mardy bum...true art...
horrible news....i think i enjoy this man's music....
oh i had fun listening to this one...there's such a joie de vivre in this that i can't help but wonder if maybe our grandparents were right and we do be on them phones too much because i've never been to a party as fun as whatever is going on here
i'm sure this was good but every song sounded like ace of spades and i had to mentally check out for the dedication to 15 year old girls part of the setlist
no one knows what it means but it got the people going
one of the rare albums that has a perfect beginning, middle and end track. still giving it a 3.
appreciate the weirdness but i'm definitely not on the right drugs for this one
by no means am i a prude but when i heard gang bang i jumped back like the cynthia erivo gif
lush and chill at the same time, the kind of thing that makes me want to get a pair of bell bottoms immediately....
i wasn't there in 1986 so i don't know what it was that made everyone lose their minds over this but it's SUCH an 80s album, down to the world music infusion coupled with digital synths. you hear the genesis ALL OVER THIS and kate bush is very welcome on this album but the standout for me wasn't the new wave but the melancholy ambiance on mercy street. VERY TENDER, VERY BEAUTIFUL...let me call my dad....
an album that is greater than the sum of its parts and t r u l y an impressive feat of live showmanship, but unfortunately the music remains not for me. that aside, can you imagine seeing roger daltrey's hair in person during this? shame about the personality because his is horrible
the absolute PEAK of scaring the hoes music. i don't mind this for what it is but it's kind of funny that 1 year after this linkin park would drop their debut and completely break nu metal by doing it better than anyone else while making it look a lot easier (mask budget was $0 for them)
i was about 4 songs in and about to give this album a 2 like i did for ice cube because early 90s rap has insanely dated production and rudimentary bars that just don't hold up in our modern era...but then the most insane thing happened...this album became insanely woke...it's obvious that ice-t was thoughtful when putting this record together because this album contends with race relations and class consciousness beyond the typical 'giving an insight into life in the hood' explanation sometimes given by his peers in the era as cover for what was just an invitation for voyeurism for the consumer. the album ended on a condemnation of the gulf war contrasting it to america's own war on crime and drugs in the inner cities bro come on...the beats are still very repetitive and at times it drags but listening to a west coast album that contends with this subject matter in the way that it did showed ice-t had a vision and executed it and we have to give him his tens for that, we stan a woke king
this is what joanna newsom must be like for straight people because i just cannot get past the voice but this one had some bops and i found myself tapping my foot to a song about him meeting christopher columbus and getting a hot dog or something so that was fun
i'm rating this lower than i normally would but i'm so tired of glam rock and all of the lyrics associated with it that i just can't do this anymore
giving this extra stars because this is true heartland music by a woke king. god bless america.
5 stars and a dose of nostalgia knowing we'll never hear anything like this from him again, rip
very excited to give this a 5 knowing that my girlfriend gave it a 1. this album is pure cocaine and i have never been happier to see an album after days of listening to glam rock acts
honestly i liked this and felt like the best moments were when it was bare instrumentals without his vocals, but then i got to the track where he said "i want to be like water if i can, 'cause water doesn't give a damn" and i found it so tender after reading about his life...this is the most 2001 album to ever exist for better and for worse, may he rip
this reminded me of the janet album of the same name in that i can recognize how influential they were for the genres they are in but i don't think this did much for me
i got really excited when the boys are back in town came on because it was a song i knew but then i remembered i hate the boys are back in town and i stopped enjoying it again
leonard cohen said he wrote this during a period of deep and prolonged depression. it sounds like it. 4 stars for accurate advertising.
to sum up my experience with this album, i was finally enjoying one of the more americana tracks that had a good beat when it faded out and literal clown music started.
rule of this website 4080 / anyone who rates this album low is shady...vibey and important but it's so funny seeing what passes for conscious rap at the time because even the progressive takes on date rape are like oh! ok!
it was good but it felt like i was browsing r/atheism and that's never really a feeling that i want to have
the second half of this starts to slog but the first half is so enjoyable and is capped off by that's entertainment so i can't get mad about it. this was extremely british (in a good way!)
this is fun early 90s proto-euro pop, much more soft and painted in indie sensibilities before the ace of base-ification of pop a few years later. amazing how 35 years later this album shows NO signs of being dated at all
i feel like a bad art gay giving this a 2 but these things happen
this is a really fun britpop album that at the high points sounds like the soundtrack to the most fun and nostalgic 90s movie you can think of. a really quick listen because i was enjoying it, goldfinger was the standout track for me!
i'm not melancholy enough for this but give me 20 minutes to turn into that girl smoking in the snow and maybe i'll understand it better
this is adele at the peak of her powers, banger after banger, this is my joni mitchell!!!! period!!!!!
lush and colorful while still being melancholy and self-reflective. now we're ALL having a cigarette while listening to this
did i just listen to a novelty album and enjoy it?
first time listening to this whole album and outside of the singles i don't know how i feel about things...i think this album needed to get to me in a gay club before my skull hardened for me to fully get it
i'm being nice to this album because i heard the influences and i can appreciate what this album did for hip-hop but please know deep in my soul i hated every miserable moment i spent listening to these 'hip-hop! it started out in the park!' flows
dramatic but lovely, i may just be in a good mood but this is such peak indie to me that i wanted to play it again immediately after finishing it for the first time. unfortunately i have to go listen to the self-titled slipknot album now.
the perfect album to make you feel like a main character in an 80s movie...MOLLY RINGWALD I GET YOU....
definitely chews but doesn't reach the same level of eatery as london calling. joe strummer is the antithesis to the 'why don't british people sing with an accent' argument
this was enjoyable and that's all i got because i won't be listening again. i made that decision before reading the 'personal life' section of his wikipedia but that certainly didn't help
beyond easy to listen to and lose yourself in, letting it all wash over you
blueberry hill is one of the most important rock records of all time but after about 10 minutes of 50s diner rock i swear i've been listening to the same song the entire time and the playlist is just gaslighting me
kanye and dilla production = instantly iconic but something about common's flow always ruins it for me...my girlfriend is going to be mad at me but there was a viral tweet that said something like "don't nobody ever say 'ay man, throw that new mgk record on'" and that is exactly how i feel about common.
it was fine but overall boring. listening to this knowing tupac came from this group is like listening to up all night after hearing pillowtalk first
i'm between 3 and 4 on this but going to be generous. i enjoyed this album but might have given it the extra bump because i went to wikipedia and saw this album is from NINETEEN SEVENTY NINE!!!!!! i thought this came out during the indie explosion in the 2000s LMFAO this is an extremely ahead of its time album!
amazing that they wanted to make something that sounded like the sex pistols and ended up making an album that sounded 1000000x better than anything they could have come up with
no genre has suffered more in terms of taking a hit in my estimation going through this project than post-punk. imagine how tired we are, truly
wgwag music but i'm so happy this isn't more dour post-punk that i'm bumping it up a rating
had some intense debates with my dad about this album since he's a skeptic but i think my final opinion is that yes, this is incredible child-like and juvenile but that is the appeal for an album that approaches love and being inquisitive about the world in the most sincere way and for that i have to give it its tens
compelling in that i can't think of another album that would make me feel like i'm on heroin more than this one
i think i enjoyed this but i didn't write down any notes and all memories of my experience with it have been wiped from my mind so we'll never know
i rated this more than i thought i would so this is a 3.5 moreso than a 3! she was only 22 when this was made and it's such a good time capsule of early 90s indie rock and feels like what all of the modern 'feminist' indie pop aspires to be, like the authentic counterpart to the facsimiles the labels keep trying to print
this is the kind of music cady heron's parents were listening to
had way too much fun listening to this, made me want to put on my fedora and checkered vans and pay my respects to aaron barrett
i'll pull out my guitar and play smoke on the water for my girlfriend later but i could not believe how much i enjoyed this album. the first 2 tracks have heavy solos that are both technically impressive and super fun to listen to and despite the length of the tracks, the overall album does not wear out its welcome at any point. suddenly the metalhead is me?
tried to figure out where my true feelings lie and how much is clouded by nostalgia but i settled on 4 because no male pop artist has replicated the hype this produced since this came out
a classic that i have strong memories of and is still something i cite constantly, the world truly is a ghetto. you can hear the racial tension of 70s la in the music but there is something in how it all comes together that makes you think harmony is possible and we are all brothers in the end!
i didn't hate this but how much 80s production do you expect one man to take and stay sane?
hearing the doors on a sitar alone was worth the price of admission
talking heads are the group that it pains me the most to not connect with but this one did nothing for me...i would literally rather listen to brian eno's hold music at this point
so good and experimental that it still sounds modern, somebody PLEASE give martina topley-bird her flowers
it was nice. i like his glasses.
the concept was cute so i hope someone who makes better music plagiarizes that
so underwhelming, but i'm never going to like a rock opera ever. i agree with all of the early reviews of this album that call it odd and indulgent but david bowie had so many tricks up his sleeve that i can't get mad. you sit through this so you can get let's dance obviously
i'm sure this was very influential but this album did actual psychic damage to me.
i literally burst out laughing when he started singing
the best parts of the album were the parts borrowed from elsewhere, like the cover of be thankful for what you got. i got bored.
i didn't hate it and in fact my toe tapped at a few places. i'm sure this is the most milquetoast opinion on the face of the earth but country really was so much better in the 80s and 90s before somebody in nashville heard a migos song and said 'what if we just add a trap beat to every truck song?'
i know elvis was FUMING when he heard this one because they did their big one on these songs
i'm not even an elvis hater but the second that unseasoned version of tutti frutti came on i knew we had completely lost the plot
this was cute but i feel like i'm in a particularly rough patch with our album pulls and it's affecting my mental, so sorry to this man
pleasant enough but we really need to study what billy joel did to baby boomer's brain chemistry that he was their god for a not-insignificant period of time
my head nodded and my toe tapped. i am giving this an extra point because this is from 1967 and could EASILY be from 10 years later they were eating these pop songs up
firmly in a genre i call 'lord of the rings' music and much like the movies i never want to experience this again
gasped out loud at a few of the lines on this, i don't think the singer-songwriting girls of today would ever be so bold and daring. this is confessional in a way that makes anything less look like phony posturing. she had her heart and her pussy on her sleeve (complimentary)
a stellar a-side and a less stellar b-side. i was not ready for that chorus on run charlie run though...
i like this more than a 2 but can't justify rating it any higher because it's not on par with their best stuff, but this is still a fun teen pop album. imagine my surprise finding out this came with 8 wallet sized photos of the brothers...they invented photocards. sunbaenim, i'm SHAKING
he turned it up on you hoes to an UNIMAGINABLE DEGREE on this one
feeling generous so i'm giving this a 4 even though i despise heartland rock and this is very much the heartland rock final boss. something very funny about bruce making the most on-the-nose social commentary but the music was so authentic to the people he was parodying that they're still misunderstanding the songs 40 years later. rock-n-roll, mtv ready videos, an annie leibovitz shot album cover...this is truly america
chaeryeong don't listen this is ska!!!! i had a lot of fun with this album, it bounced back and forth between prince and faith no more and overall was just a silly little listen
cute jangle pop with a cozy vibe! reminds me of listening to the radio as a kid when everybody had a guitar and wore thick glasses
i read a tweet the other day that lamented how 'defanged' popular music has become and listening to this it's hard to not agree: imagine a major popstar today putting an outro on the album like silent night. nobody has anything to say anymore so even if i find this a little bit primitive, it's leagues more evolved than today's navel-gazing pop music. long live folk.
