I love this album so much! Houses in Motion is it… everything I love about Talking Heads. And Once in a Lifetime will just never get old. I don’t know how I felt about the closer, I think I need to listen to it again.

Best album we’ve had yet

Overwhelmed by sounds underwhelmed by words

It’s okayyyyy, but One and Only is actually very fun on a NYC evening walk

This made being at the laundromat fun which feels 4-star worthy

I tried. I was on a scenic drive. It was not good. Maybe just the wrong place and time. Maybe it’s actually not good. I don’t know, but whatever happened between me and these songs and that road… I’ll just never listen again and I am okay with that.

Dear god I want to have hyperbolic syllabic sesquipedalian sex with you to this album

Reallly did not like the first song, but then they dubbed some Coco Spookarama screams into track 3 and I actually found everything from that point up onward to be very sonically compelling (until Bound 2, also did not like that). Hold My Liquor and Blood on the Leaves are cool songs.

There I was a-sittin’ in my sky chair subtly stomping my foot and shookin’ my butt to this, thinking — okay, strong start. But by track 5 I was exhausted. Didn’t really connect with any of the songs and there were a lot of horse at an Arabian laser rodeo sounds? Likeeee ohhh another devil western baseline thing, we’re runnin’ through a valley… but there’s no water, and I want to go home

I think I would have enjoyed it more if I was cleaning my apartment on a coffee buzz. Alas, I was sitting in the Dallas airport and it made me anxious and the sounds reminded me of when I played the keyboard with my NY cousin and it maybe sounded cool, or maybe everyone was just on ketamine

Sometimes you think god has forsaken you because you’re still in Texas. And sometimes a perfect country album about Texas finds you and reminds you that life really is about horses, guns and women

Everything you said is exactly how I feel

This was weird and some of the baselines were really cool, but I am not sure I liked it. I think I would have really liked this in my skin depression and been like “this is who I am now”, but I’m feeling better so it’s not

I liked a lot of the songs, particularly the weird vocal sounds on Penetration. Gimme Danger and Shake Appeal also very fun. Did not like when voice went moderately screamo like on Pretty Face Going to Hell. Sounded too close to me at karaoke.

Wow yes do I love Neil Young? Didn’t know anything other than Down By the River, but this was easy listening. The Losing End is so good! Definitely adding Cowgirl in the Sand to some sort of guitar sex playlist. Sex guitar playlist? Human sex to guitars playlist

I did not know anything about this band or the sad story! I don’t think I would listen again, but I did enjoy some of the songs and now know the New Order origin story. The last song Decades is very cool. The middle got a bit monotonous. No regrets though!

This was just sooo nice to listen to. Fox in the Snow and The Boy Done Wrong Again made me cry on a mountain pass. I love the ways the songs build into beautiful crescendos of harmonicas, strings, horns. Faith in 1001albumsgenerator restored 🙏

I love this album so much! Houses in Motion is it… everything I love about Talking Heads. And Once in a Lifetime will just never get old. I don’t know how I felt about the closer, I think I need to listen to it again.

Never listened to any of this before and it was a bit all over the place for me, but definitely tugged at my high school emo/ska heartstrings. I really liked Soul and Fire, Happily Divided, and Think (Let Tomorrow Bee). Some good heartbreak lyrics! But wow, every song was like a different genre and I don’t know how I felt about it as a whole.

I wasn’t 100% focused while this was on, but I don’t think it was as fun as I thought it was going to be. No standouts, but cool basslines

Rachel and I had a jolly ol’ time listening to this on our drive up an AWD dirt road in her tiny sedan. It was actually hilarious to have this strange Irish soundtrack on as the car bottomed out several times

Really enjoyed this during morning wine at the cabin. It’s fun! But all of the guitar sounds the same

I don’t know if I vibe with the 60’s, but I Knew I’d Want You is a save for me

Wow I really thought I was going to hate this because Alice Cooper is, in fact, not a woman and the first song is just something I can’t hear objectively, I’ve just heard to too many times to the point where it means nothing and I hate it and it’s not a real song. But then Blue Turk came on and I was like… hold on… what’s this? That song is cool. So is Grande Finale. Not sure I would listen to the rest again.

I was sort of frantically packing while listening to this but my thoughts during that were: such hits at the front, I actually love these songs. Middle seemed a little monotonous… he seems sad. Last song Good Feeling made my ears perk. Need to save that and listen again.

There are probably more clever ways to be a misogynist but this was honestly just dumb

probably won’t listen to this as a whole again but could really picture myself jumping around to all of this at a live show. The kick drum is kickin. Saved Garbage Man and Strychnine. Actually may pump myself up to Garbage Man before shows

I did not like this and I really did not like the song Little 15… it kind of made me sick. Have no idea what it’s about but just like allergic to the sounds and the key change.

I wanted to like this but I did not like this and it did not take it back in the day and the lyrics just weren’t there for me :( Only listened to Disc 1. sorry xtinaaaa ❤️I do hope we get the Genie in a Bottle album as that was one of the first CDs I ever owned

Listened to 3.25 songs. Did not like the first two. Did not want to continue. Do not like music that sounds far away. Why cannot this music sound up close? Then I actually did like song three, In a Different Place, so I went on to song four. Then, the opening guitar thing on Polar Bear is the same guitar thing as The Smiths, How Soon is Now and that reminded me both of the show Charmed and of how I don’t want to listen to any more bands that sound like this. Maybe the rest of the album rules though.

We had fun!!

This was so beautiful and refreshing after everything we’ve had to endure (sad British boys). How cool that music transcends language… really felt this on the title track which I loved and is maybe sung by an alien that I feel really emotionally connected to. This feels timeless, like beyond time. Excited to listen to the whole thing again while journal crying!

This is not the soundtrack for making curry. I thought I was very close to the end of the album, but I was only halfway through and I couldn’t do another round of songs that really all sound the same. I really felt so immediately compelled by Marty Robbins and did not feel the same here.

Okay I knew I loved Suzanne and So Long Marianne, but That’s No Way to Say Goodbye and One of us Cannot be Wrong are amaaazinggg. I don’t know. Lyrically it’s almost too much to take in, and I like him best when he’s singing about love vs other existential topics… not a perfect five for me but I really love these love songs. “Walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme” 🥹

I liked working to this! I don’t know what to say other than that!

This is so fun! Standouts for me were Mannequin, Strange, and Lowdown. Also there is a single guitar strum on Champs that is so fun. I will definitely listen again while walking around the city at night. Is this punk? Why even go post-punk if we could just stay here? Humanity does not always need to evolve

This is the perfect soundtrack to complete your annual self review to. You’ll realize you have learned a lot and you are proud of yourself and it’s okay that you wish you didn’t have this job… now you can see the multi-faceted ways you’ve grown as a person because you have both this obligation and your dreams hanging in the balance, which actually creates a weird symbiosis And it’s okay to want fish and a jazz date with Coco. A fishy jazz date with Coco. Five stars!

I always thought I hated Queen because I always want to kill myself when people sing Queen songs at karaoke, but I tried to go into this with an open heart and mind. I do think Killer Queen really is a freakin’ cool song. Now I am also into Flick of the Wrist. But it kind of feels impossible to sit and listen to this whole album in one go? I found myself checking how close to being over it was around Stone Cold Crazy and there were still five more songs. I don’t find it easy listening and there’s so much going on in every song and such drastic genre changes between them as well. They seem fun, but I just don’t know if I like it.

Yesssss wow thank the lord. I mean she really is just so much better than all the sad boys we just endured… the vocal range! This ruled. I was making dinner and drinking a green bottle of beer and taking big sexy swigs to this big sexy music and feelin’ alive baby!!!

This was kinda lame but the second song, Big Sur, was definitely on The OC which unlocked a whole lot of memories of me climbing through vibrator Ashley’s bedroom window Dawson’s Creek style to watch her OC dvd box sets and I was obsesssseddd with Seth Cohen wow he was so cute. Man, I wanted to be rich and live in California.

I’m here for it! Some very groovy, twangy and sexy guitar. Six Blade Knife is verrrry sexy. This was so easy to listen to it made me realize how challenging it’s been to listen to some other albums. Wild West End is cute! Laughing at how he sings “duck inside the doorway, duck to eat”. A lovely fall morning secretly horny on a Brower Park bench

I do not like this

This album is fascinating and sort of mesmerizing. I’ve never gotten into Bjork because I haven’t known when the right mood/time is, but now I know this is music for starting a witchy fall drive in a misty rain on the coast of Maine.

Truly could not wait for this to be over

The Beach Boys are sooo cute and cool. Wow I really love the song Disney Girls. And I want to start a riot. And I want to save the trees. And I need to give my feet a break. It’s all just so true!

I feel so excited to know that this album exists. Dang that was some cool shit. Pitche Mi, what a song. Phenomenal!

I wanted to love this and some songs were very cute, but ultimately I was bored. I am not bored by the two impossible whoppers I am currently eating in a parking lot

This kind of ruled? I have this vinyl but I’ve never listened to the whole thing because, what, am I going to lay on my shag rug and eat mushrooms and put this on and write in my journal ”tonight I’m diving into The Beatles.” Yes, yes I did do that and then got embarrassed and put on Erykah Badu instead. Some very good songs on here and In My Life is really just very nice to listen to. The Drive My Car opening while driving could be a peak experience

This was ok! Sounds similar to many things we’ve listened to, namely The Smiths but better because of the fiddle and violin. I actually looked that up and it’s a woman named Amanda Brown on the strings. She’s five stars for me, but the rest is a three. I did like and save the song Clouds… which reminds me there’s some really nice guitar on this album too, but the songs as a whole are just kind of “mid” to be gen z about it.

Best album we’ve had yet

Fascinating. I don’t know if I would listen again, but this is a type of weird I can get down with. At first I thought I could not possibly continue on, but then I was suddenly lured into an underground vampiric one-man show with knife demonstrations that freak you out, but you remind yourself IT’S JUST A SHOW AND THEY’RE NOT GUNNA KILL ME DOWN HERE LOL! And yeah, it was kinda hot. And yeah, Big Jesus Trash Can might be my new favorite song. Sex bat horror vampire sex cool machine!

Karen O is everything and I watched her repeatedly smash a corded microphone—just whipping it around and smacking it against the stage—at Red Rocks a week before I moved to New York, with my sister and Gabby and Salma… and I felt 19 again then and I feel 19 again now. Damn that’s how I want to do comedy—just flip out and smash stuff. I love this album! Also this was such a nice reminder that I love the song Runaway

Was not 100% present while listening to this, but I did think “cool rhythm” and start nodding my head a couple times, particularly Primitive and Requiem. I’m sure there’s something here, but I kinda wanted to tidy up to Norah Jones vibe this morning and not this

Haha I remember putting this vinyl on one of our early floor hangs at my old apartment and being like “this is one of the best albums ever!” Then we started making out and got bummed out by Village Ghetto Land and had to change theeee channnelll. It’s actually so funny to think of us making out to “families buying dog food now, babies die before they’re born…” and not knowing each other that well. I didn’t listen to this whole thing, but I have many times, and I love putting this album on to clean. Isn’t She Lovely is just so sweet

Infinite stars for the way it feels to listen to Baby Baby Baby in the morning light with coffee at the Prospect Park boathouse

Didn’t finish, didn’t want to do this

Didn’t finish, didn’t want to do this. Made it through Flowers and Beads which is just so sad when a sweet love song is so boring and the person’s voice is so annoying you can’t even unpack your groceries to it

Hmmm I don’t know what I thought Rush was but this is not what I thought Rush was. This is Rush? I guess it’s like bad Queen and then there’s the crushing sadness of thinking you made it through four songs but it’s still the first song 🥹

This was a mighty fine bore
