4/5
I liked this! It was fun, not too cheesy/corny, with great vocals. Really enjoyable the whole way through.
The Beach Boys · 1 likes
4/5
Definitely a darker, more morose vibe than I would expect from The Beach Boys. I really enjoyed this album.
It was a beautiful day before I turned this dogshit on. Easily the blandest, most inane drivel I’ve ever had the displeasure of listening to. Some of the most shallow, unoriginal lyrics to receive this much acclaim. I think the worst part is some songs have the potential to actually be good, like Elevation, if it wasn’t for Bono wailing like a cat in heat intermittently throughout the song. I seriously do not get the hype.
Erykah Badu · 1 likes
5/5
This album flows so so SO well. Erykah Badu’s voice seems to be polarizing, but I find it suits her neo-soul style and overall vibe very very well. The final track probably could have been cut a bit, but otherwise, a totally gorgeous album. 5/5

5/5
Was not expecting to fall in love with this album tbh. I worked at a kind of shitty yacht club during summers whilst in college and Moondance played over the radio literally every single shift I worked, somehow it still retains a soothing quality untouched by food service PTSD. The whole album (minus maybe Everyone) was cohesive without being boring or stale for me. Perfect to listen to to be lulled to sleep (not derogatory)
