1001 Albums Summary

Intro: Feels a bit pointless in its form, but sets the tone for the album. Stronger than me: simplistic structure and repetitive. The solo at the end helps. You sent me flying: Interesting chords and melody. A bit long. Cherry: Nice little song, but fits weirdly into the album. Know you how: Easy listening and comfortable. Repetitive and lack of interesting things happening - easy for the attention to drift away. Fuck Me Pumps: Too repetitive, but catchy I Heard Love Is Blind: Nice little song Moody's Mood For Love: Nice lines from vocals and saxophone. Cool chords. Teo Licks: a short bit that fits the mood No Greater Love: A bit forgetful In My Bed: A very welcome change in mood and color. Nice backup vocals. Could have been shorter. Take The Box: Nice ballad with interesting chord progression. October Song: The beat livens up the album. What Is It About Men: Basic attention killer Help Yourself: Differently colored song. Too repetitive and too long. Catchy wind instruments. Amy Amy Amy: Very repetitive. Needs to be broken up with something to make more interesting. Outro: Similar to the intro, it feels pointless in its form. Fade in is weird. Brother: Nicely sounding with a good bass. Interesting backup vocals. Good song. Mr Magic: Cool and lively song, great way to end the album. Using most elements from the album. Great winds. General comments: Great vocals and overall character. The album is sometimes too homogeneous and more thought could have been put in the structure of the album. Some songs feel very repetitive which makes it easy to get distracted - could be considered background music rather than something one would listen to with intent. Overall great use of wind instruments and backup vocals.

Intro: Different, weird, grabs your attention. The Magic Number: Repetitive supporting music which is broken up more frequently in the end of the song. Catchy bass. Change In Speak: Repetitive again. Lacking in variation. Catchy riff. Cool Breeze on the Rocks: Weird like the intro, different. Can U Keep a Secret: Whispering makes it a bit interesting, but otherwise quite uninteresting and too repetitive. Jenifa Taught Me: Interesting structure, movement, and sounds/instruments. Development of foundational elements would have made the song good instead of average. Ghetto Thang: Too repetitive supporting music. Good beat and interesting sound use. Transmitting Live from Mars: Interesting break in the album, but not an interesting song on its own. Eye Know: Nice variety in the layers of the supporting music. Easy listening and comfy. Good song but missing some development in the latter half. Take It off: Too repetitive and boring A Little Bit of Soap: Not much happening Tread Water: Development needed after the change halfway through. Potholes in My Lawn: Boring main riff, interesting use of yodeling, welcome scratch break in the middle, but could have taken the song in a more interesting direction instead of going back to the same old stuff from before. Say No Go: Interesting layers and a nice, solid beat. Nice to hear some development in the end, might have been even more of it. Good song. Do as De La Does: Took half the song for the song to start and then a strange ending. Plug Tunin': Nice development in the first half. Woyld have been nice to notice the same in the latter half - Repetitive. De La Orgee: Wierd and uneccessary. Buddy: Boring intro. Some interesting elements brought in through the song, but could have been used more coupled woth proper development of the song. Descruption: Flat and uninteresting. Me Myself and I: Great instrumentation and catchy, cool riffs. Great use of scratching. Good song, coyld have been great with a better structure and build. L.I.F.E.: Promising build up that could have been developed to its fullest, instead it ended up being basic and average. I Can Do Anything: Seemed pointless D.A.I.S.Y. Age: Disappointing end to the album. Rather boring song with a weird ending, in style with the intro. General comments: Many interesting ideas and cool songs that usually lack in structure and development. Sounds and riffs are typically cool, catchy and interesting.
