The Stranger by Billy Joel
Dec 31 2025

I didn’t really expect to like this but I found it really easy to listen to and enjoyed it! I already knew some songs but most were new to me and I think I’d definitely listen to this again. I give it 3.5 stars but I’ll round up to 4 😊

The Score by Fugees
Jan 01 2026

Listening to the whole album it was kind of samey but Ready or Not is SUCH a good song. The standout of the album for me.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jan 02 2026

Not something I’d really listen to but can appreciate it for what it is. Listened to it whilst doing some housework and kind of felt like I was in a movie 😂

Dry by PJ Harvey
Jan 04 2026

Female rage! Enjoyed this, I could listen to more.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness by The Smashing Pumpkins
Jan 05 2026

I remember trying really hard to get into this as a teenager and I just couldn’t but I actually enjoyed this listen. Too long though, 2 hours was a bit too much to properly get into it. 3.5 stars.

Bossanova by Pixies
Jan 06 2026

Weird but enjoyable! Would listen again!

Pacific Ocean Blue by Dennis Wilson
Jan 07 2026

Some of the second part of this sounded a bit like a drunk guy at the back of a bar with a karaoke machine. Some of it was okay but it was long and I don’t have the urge to listen to any more!

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Jan 08 2026

Not my thing really but it was quite relaxing to listen to!

Penance Soiree by The Icarus Line
Jan 09 2026

Not quite as bad as I expected but still didn’t really like it 😅

Eagles by Eagles
Jan 10 2026

Easy listening

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
Jan 11 2026

This was fun although I feel like once you’ve heard one song you’ve heard them all. My favourite lyrics 😂 I'm gonna give you everything that you ever need If you need a pint of blood, then I'll even bleed If you're lookin' for a car, I will buy you two And if you're lookin' for a pet, I'll buy a kangaroo

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jan 13 2026

Boring

Justified by Justin Timberlake
Jan 14 2026

Had this album when it came out. Have to say I think it’s very self indulgent - some of the songs just go on for too long 😂 but it was fun and Cry Me a River is a banger

The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers
Jan 15 2026

Couldn’t understand a word he was singing.

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Jan 16 2026

Not what I’d normally listen to but thought it was pretty good for what it is!

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Jan 17 2026

Groovy but not really for me.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Jan 19 2026

Thought this was mainly a bit dull and then that song second to last was just bonkers!

The Cars by The Cars
Jan 20 2026

Enjoyed this, it was fun!

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Jan 22 2026

For some reason Spotify only played 1 song that was 4 minutes long, not the 1 hour 18 minute album I was expecting. This was a relief as those 4 minutes were utter garbage.

Moon Safari by Air
Jan 23 2026

Quite likes this, it was like “cool” background music. But I did get a little bit bored towards the end…

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Jan 24 2026

Yes yes yes to Yeah Yeah Yeahs!

Solid Air by John Martyn
Jan 25 2026

Some songs were quite nice and mellow easily listening but some were a bit… warbly? The way he sang was a bit weird at times.

Stripped by Christina Aguilera
Jan 26 2026

A bit too long but enjoyed the listen.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 27 2026

Liked the first half more than the second.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Jan 29 2026

Summer Breeze is a great song!

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Jan 30 2026

A bit weird but not bad.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Jan 31 2026

Glad it was only 35 mins as it kind of got on my nerves after a bit. Jazz isn’t for me.

m b v by My Bloody Valentine
Feb 02 2026

Started out awful and got worse as it went on

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Feb 03 2026

Enjoyable!

Atomizer by Big Black
Feb 06 2026

Was okay, I’ve listened to worse.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Feb 09 2026

Found this very dull. Not for me.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Feb 11 2026

Not bad!

Street Life by The Crusaders
Feb 13 2026

First song was alright but was about 7 minutes too long. Then the rest was a bit unmemorable.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Feb 15 2026

Was okay but some songs sounded the same.

New Wave by The Auteurs
Feb 16 2026

Painfully dull

Boston by Boston
Feb 17 2026

Too much keyboard for me.

Kenya by Machito
Feb 20 2026

Not my thing.

Harvest by Neil Young
Feb 21 2026

Lined more than I expected!

Groovin' by The Young Rascals
Feb 23 2026

Not that memorable.

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Feb 24 2026

A lot of the songs sounded the same but it was kinda fun.

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
Feb 25 2026

Not bad!

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Feb 27 2026

This didn’t feel like an hour long album. It was a bit odd but fun!

Horses by Patti Smith
Feb 28 2026

Nope, not for me!

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Mar 01 2026

Better than the last Elvis Costello album I had to listen to but still not really my thing.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Mar 02 2026
The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Mar 03 2026

Generic indie. I kept wanting to skip songs because they were meh.

Out of Step by Minor Threat
Mar 04 2026

Glad it was only 20 minutes.

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Mar 05 2026

Have to admit, I saw the 2 hour run time and listened to half of the first song and thought “nope, can’t do this”.

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Mar 06 2026

Sorry didn’t listen, apart from a few seconds and it wasn’t my thing.
