1001 Albums Summary

All I really want - I really enjoyed the tones on the guitar and the main melody The changing of the amount of layers is nice throughout. It gives a sense of importance on sections without changing too much about the song You outta know - Funky bassline. chord progression on the chorus is nice but im not a big fan of the sudden cut out of most of the instruments after. the whole point of the chorus is that its not meant to change and be a home point to come back to but it feels like there could be at least some variation. Perfect - less of a rock feel compared to the other songs. still inherits some of the same characterstics such as the sudden change in layers. more soft in a sense Hand in my pocket - Melody is guided by the vocals (and harmonica), the instruments dont really go off on their own but thats not necessarily a bad thing. enjoyable song and I like the lyrics Right through you - the chord progression switch in the chorus is nice to listen to, the guitar tone here makes it feel more rock-y sometimes. the change in layers is done better than Perfect and I appreciate the small sections inbetween the lyrics. One of the better songs imo so far Forgiven - more of a rock song than some of the others. the acoustic guitar gives a really nice vibe in constrast with the electric guitars and provides some different sound texture with some fills throughout the song You Learn - nothing spectactular stood out to me but there was a nice small guitar solo in the middle which I was was longer or present more times. You really get to know that the song is called you learn, quite repetitive lyrics Head Over Feet - started quite typically but then theres a nice glissando on the vocal melody that constrasts really nicely to the key of the song, it stands out but in a good way. little harmonica solo is funky too. another songs where the vocals are the main focus. fun to sing along to Mary Jane - change in drums is a nice change of pace, can really tell the pace of the song. vocals are really strong and belty but also soft in parts. transitions between them are done well. electric guitar not always playing chords is a nice switch up with the drums. sounds less like a wall of noise sometimes and you can really hear the melody ironic - wasnt a big fan of the softness at the start but it was nice to just have vocals and guitar. sudden belting (of the chorus) caught me by surprise and its kinda sets the pace for the rest of the song to be more upbeat. I admire the skill by Alanis to switch between singing styles well and make it fit well Not the Doctor - not much to say, but a good song. the 2 vocals add nice harmonies. the guitar and vocals going different directions in the chorus is pleasant to listent to Wake Up - the base and drums really add some groove, the 2 vocals give the song some great depth with the harmonies. the fact that the guitar melody doesnt always just blatently follow the vocal melody makes the song sound really full. all of it combined results in a complex sound but it all really works together You oughta know jimmy blend - basically the same song aside from a pure vocal track for the 2nd half which im not the biggest fan of

very typical and standard blues, not my kinda music but i can appreciate it. and theres some classics in there too

kinda groovy but wouldnt actively listen to it if i wanted to lsiten to something
