Overall album rating by me: 6,5/10
Songs added to playlist: ,,See No Evil'', ,,Guiding Light''
Notes:
I really liked it but it's more of a background music during a stroll kind of album for me.
Overall rating by me: 5,5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Tomorrow's Dream", ,,Changes''
Notes:
Not my cup of tea but again, casually as background music I think I would listen to it again.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Notes:
Nothing special, just old-style Christmas songs.
Overall rating by me: 7,5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Missing Pieces", ,,I'm Shakin"
Notes:
Very solid album. Definitely something for more alternative-leaning folk but a good listen anyways.
Overall rating by me: 9/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Excursions", ,,Show Business", ,,Vibes and Stuff", ,,Infamous Date Rape", ,,Check The Rhime", ,,Everything Is Fair", ,,Skypager"
Notes:
Genuinely the best album that has been introduced to me by this site. Well written verses, funky beats and the meaning behind the words. Definitely a top 5 mention.
Overall rating by me: 7/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Red Rain", ,,Sledgehammer"
Notes:
A mix of fast and slow-paced songs. Personally, I learn toward the ones that give me an energy rush - it's the ones I have added to the playlist.
Overall rating by me: 9/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Good Beat", ,,Power of Love", ,,Try Me On... I'm Very You", ,,Groove Is in the Heart"
Notes:
Absolutely love the whimsy and quirky vibe of this album. Had it not been for the just-instrumental songs I would've given it a higher note, since I like my songs with at least some words in them.
Overall rating by me: 7/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Pedestal", ,,Biscuit", ,,Glory Box"
Notes:
Very classy, very rich but also insanely sensual. It's absolutely giving me the vibe of the music that plays at the dark-lit bar, in the nook of an alleyway. Also, ,,Glory Box" is the ultimate song I reach for when I want to feel powerful, therefore I'm glad I finally had a push to listen to the whole album.
Overall rating by me 5/10
Notes:
As much as I love all kinds of jazz and alike, this one was a disappointment for me. Genuinely, had it not been for the random hitch pitch trumpet notes during the songs, easily every song would've been on the playlist. Otherwise - they would simply just put me out of focus every single time I worked on something while listening, so it's sadly a hard skip for me.
Overall rating by me: 8,5/10
Song added to the playlist: ,,Never Let Me Down Again", ,,Strangelove", ,,Sacred", ,,Little 15", ,,Behind The Wheel", ,,Nothing"
Notes:
Proof that you really can't miss with Depeche Mode and an absolute beast of an album.
Overall rating by me: 7,5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Subterranean Homesick Blues", ,,Outlaw Blues", ,,It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding"
Notes:
Makes me feel like I travelled in time and I'm currently sitting in the 70's in some obscure wild west themed tavern. Definitely will play the whole album on a road trip one day.
Overall rating by me: 8,5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Goodbye Newport Blues (Live)", ,,I Got My Brand On You", ,,Meanest Woman"
Notes:
Genuinely, you can never miss with jazz created by people of color. Fenomenal voice and a classy tune. If I ever make a jazz playlist, the whole album surely will be there.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Highly Evolved", ,,Outtathaway"
Notes:
Nice sound and original vocals. Although it was created around 20 years ago, the vibe is as if it's meant to sound like something from decades back. I'm not big into indie rock though.
Overall rating by me: 3/10
Notes:
Honestly speaking, I didn't like any of the songs at all. Only positive aspect for me here is that I can see is how different people have different tastes.
Overall rating by me: 5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,The Scientist"
Notes:
Very slow-paced and emotional. Good for background music or something to play when you're feeling blue.
Overall rating by me: 9/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Laura", ,,Take Your Mama", ,,Lovers In The Backseat", ,,Tits On the Radio", ,,Filthy/Gorgeous", ,,The Skins", ,,Get It Get It"
Notes:
Genuinely feel like I have manifested this album and I think that physical copy of this in my room is speaking volumes. Absolutely love anything that Scissor Sisters bring to the table. So peculiar yet fun.
Overall rating by me: 3/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Ballad of the Thin Man"
Notes:
I don't really know the cause, but I just can't listen to Bob Dylan's songs. Can't quite put my finger on it but there's something lacking in his country repertoire.
Overall rating by me: 5/10
Notes:
Even though I hadn't really clicked with any of the songs enough to add them to my playlist, I do think that I will listen to this album at least a couple times more in the far future.
Overall rating by me: 9,5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’”,, ,,Baby Be Mine”, ,,Thriller”, ,,Beat It”, ,,Billie Jean”, ,,P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)”
Notes:
I never have a bad thing to say about MJ’s music. The flow, the beat and raw vocals? Fenomenal. There is no other musician and performer like him and possibly never will be. Therefore it goes without saying that he gets the highest note from me here.
Overall rating by me: 7/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,The Boomin’ System”, ,,Around The Way Girl”, ,,Mr. Good Bar”, ,,Illegal Search”
Notes:
Hip-hop that’s very fun to listen to. Love how you can pinpoint exactly from what timeframe it’s from - the funky beats and flowy rap make you actually want to move and jam to the music.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Right In Time”
Notes:
Very toned-down and melancholic - even the songs that are more rhythmic in this album are on the slower side. Soft vocals and country sound really put this all together.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Crosstown Traffic”, ,,All Along the Watchtower”
Notes:
Nice sound and a cool vibe but it lacks something special, that wow factor - at least for me. Finally though I had the opportunity to get to know JH’s music so that’s definitely a plus.
Overall rating by me: 8/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Let England Shake”, ,,The Glorious Land”, ,,The Words That Maketh Murder”, ,,On Battleship Hill” ,,In The Dark Places”, ,,Written On The Forehead”
Notes:
Chic London aesthetic girl but also a ,,stuck in an unsettling, spooky-themed fanfiction” vibes. Needed this kind of in my life, I’m so serious - finally have some music to act mysterious to.
Overall rating by me: 7/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Stay”, ,,Parade (A Banda)”, ,,I Had The Craziest Dream”
Notes:
It’s a really good album. A day at the beach or the amusement park? Perfect. Very light, cozy yet warm - it’s as if you can feel the rays of sunshine coming through the melody.
Overall rating by me: 8/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Beauty and the Beast”, ,,Joe the Lion”, ,,V-2 Schneider”
Notes:
Bowie’s genius truly does transcend above and beyond. Normal songs, as well as the pure instrumentals in this album are fantastic - very lively and fun; so much so that you can actually feel his soul in his music.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,B-Boys Makin' With The Freak Freak", ,,The Update"
Notes:
The most punk of punk albums you could ever hear. I deducted point only because there were too many intros for my liking but overall I would listen to it again.
Overall rating by me: 7/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Song for Sathima”, ,,Manenberg Revisited”, ,,The Weeding”
Notes:
Most of the songs have some fun in them, yet are still calm and slow-paced. Therefore, they would make some really good background music for a study session.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to playlist: ,,Party Line", ,,Holiday in Waikiki", ,,Little Miss Queen Of Darkness", ,,Big Black Smoke"
Notes:
Funky and cool, sounds very modern for a 60's album. I just know some twee aesthetic girl would be thrilled to hear it.
Overall rating by me: 7,5/10
Songs added to playlist: ,,How Much More", ,,Lust To Love", ,,This Town", ,,Skidmarks On My Heart"
Notes:
Absolutely my taste is music. This makes me desperately wish for spring to come faster. Very jumpy, fun and with so much soul.
Overall rating by me: 5/10
Songs added to playlist: ,,Squares"
Notes:
Thought that if I loved Squares, the rest of the album would be the same but sadly no. Melancholic and slow - that's how I would describe it.
Overall rating by me: 8/10
Songs added to the playlist: All
Notes:
This is absolutely it - no more words needed
Overall rating by me: 6,5/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,With Our Love”, ,,The Good Thing”, ,,Take Me To The River”
Notes:
The beat is very funky and flowy. At first I didn’t realise, but I finally found the name of the song I’ve been searching for the longest time - so glad it’s finally in my playlist.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Vixen", ,,Rollin' Dany", ,,Cruiser's Creek"
Notes:
Very smooth rock but joyful. Liked the vibe, but sadly many of the songs didn't really fit my taste.
Overall rating by me: 6/10
Songs added to the playlist: ,,Green River”, ,,Sinister Purpose”
Notes:
The vibe is very country and very lively - typical for the timeframe it was created in. Good music for a roadtrip in the nature.
