1001 Albums Summary

Realizing I am pretty unfamiliar with Talking Heads beyond Psycho Killer...enjoyed listening to this album. Admittedly, it did blend together a bit for me but that may have more been me listening at work first day after 2 week break with a bit of a headcold....eek.....may need to do some additional listens....but overall I liked it, although I don't see myself often putting it on....

Commenting while listening....THOROUGHLY enjoying. I really love when albums exist as albums rather than a collection of disjointed singles. Bring back concept albums !!!!!!! Also this has me reflecting on how much fun long songs can be. There is currently an epidemic of <3 minute songs. A 7+ minute song is so beautiful.......maybe my attention span will be fixed Listening one headphone bc at work....will need to do another 2 headphone or speaker listen at some point also.... This is an album that makes me excited about music again :) Supergroovalisticprosifunkstication !!!! Was just talking ab how I want to isolate specific songs in my reviews and comments but with how collective this album is I don't think I will today lolol Anyways, on my second maybe third listen? this is very fun and cool and influential and i am really rocking w it :) bye bye

wait I'M SO ANNOYED !!!!! i took notes and it looks like they didn't save 😭😭 ....anyways, trying to remember....... I lowkey think I manifested an album of longer songs via my comment ab the previous album.... This was a really interesting album. It is not something I think I would have listened to or even discovered without this project. Egbe Mi O (Carry Me) - standout to me !!

I think I'm unable to assess this album properly as it is so soaked in nostalgia for me🫶 I finally gave songs other than El Paso the attention they deserve!!!! Genuinely really love this album, but I do wonder how I'd feel without our personal history haha......

Another album I don't think I would have experienced without this project... I can recognize this is good, don't have particular strong feelings about this album, myself, though.... Finding myself really appreciating drums and the instrumentals 🥁 Paradise City was fun

Fistful of Steel was probably my favorite Again, not really my vibe and don't believe I'd have listened to otherwise...but glad I did I also realize that I'm less lyrical in a lot of ways, I did not really internalize many lyrics...I want to work on this!

disassociating to the instrumentals of voodoo chile woahhhh !!! genuinely really into this.... this is an ALBUM ‼️

ace of spades is a great opener....immediately high energy, very instrument heavy, but can already tell that this album will not make much of an impact on me....... deeply musically talented for sure (the guitar!? the drums!??), maybe fun to see live or listen to on a roadtrip? hmmm the albums we've been getting just feel so painfully similar.... fun, intense lead ins.....like fast and loose

call me basic....kinda excited for this.....i always forget how much i enjoy coldplay oh wow...i fully meant to write so much more and i just didn't..... i think this is a great album but i wonder if it being such a departure from the vibe of the past few impacted this assessment.....

Nightswimming by REM was my only experience with this band, and that is such an incredible song !!!! Hate to say it....did not feel particularly strongly ab this album, do not see myself returning - maybe should have done two listens...

what is the world can i do !!!!!! i am really enjoying this...I thought I was getting tired of so many guitar heavy tracks but I'm back !! Really into these instrumentals....all feel very cinematic (Warszawa playing while I'm typing rn for some context) Weeping Wall has me feeling like a space alien Just started ascending to subterraneans !! also liked the guitar riff on sound and vision

I'm really enjoying this....... This is good music to just have playing....that sounds so dumb.....I need to stop doing these in the morning when my brain doesn't work properly yet......Probably the most I've fixated on lyrics recently, though most slid down my smooth brain....reads like poetry Tell Me Why After The Gold Rush Only Love Can Break Your Heart Oh, Lonesome Me Birds I Believe In You ....do I really like Neil Young ????

YAY Great album imo Over & Over - just floating and nodding, loving this Sara and Storms - I really love Stevie Nicks' voice alwaysss Sisters of the Moon - my sister and i are sisters of the moon actually !! Brown Eyes - after Gaga just performed her iconic song of the same eyes in Japan after forever !? feels spiritual.... Beautiful Child - beautiful song actually <33 Walk a Thin Line - oh wha oh wha ph whaaaa Tusk - such a unique song, like this The Ledge - another fun sound

Very fun album How Much More Tonite Lust to Love We Got the Beat (only song I was familiar with going in) You Can't Walk in Your Sleep Poppy and fun....liked the vibe but not sure if I was fully in the headspace to appreciate today....will likely rate 3 but know it is a higher 3!

YES YES YES I LOVE MISSY ELLIOTT Sock it 2 Me!!!! Supa Dupa Fly!!!!!!! Pass da Blunt!!!!! Best Friends!!!!!! All of them actually!!!!!! such a great album!!!! the features, the lyrics, the samples, the instrumentals, the flows, etc, etc.........!!!!!! the intro and outro!!!! i really do think missy elliott is such a supremely talented artist....1 of 1 babyyyyYyy......also crazyyyy for a debut too !! thinking this will be my first 5 🤭

I know nothing ab this......excited to listen Interesting and complex instrumentals.....that said, don't know if this is for me......don't feel strongly negative but this is not particularly exceptional (in my opinion!!!!!!) also LOVED yesterday (my first 5!!!) so I might be coming off that high too lol this is growing on me a bit....

Ugh needed this !!!!!! Exp takes me back.....remember dad playing this haha wow....I did not make many comments :( that's my b.....anyways a classic !!!!! LOVE this one overall, an amazing album but we already knew this !!

slayyyy björk is so weird and fun i loveee again i completely forgot to take more detailed notes but I was sooooo into this ‼️‼️‼️‼️

Took no notes oops....enjoyed this....will prob give a 3 but know it's a high 3 !!!! im just not built for the 1-5 scale alas :(

ugh mr e show would die !! sorry eshow such a solid 3 to me

left no notes but enjoyed a lot haha

Made no comments alas but I liked this so much!!!!!!

again i forget to write specifics.....😭 enjoyed this, i like the strokes.... struggling w the rating.....feel like it is prob a 4 but im so generous w 4s lately that i don't want to give one.......but this was better than that rush album to me so it feels wrong to rate the same....hmmmm...high 3 rounded to 4 how about

kate and i had the exact same inital impression hehe..... everything felt vvv referential this was a pleasant surprise for me....not everything worked but when it did, it DID rating 3 bc 5 stars is not an efficient system for me but know it's a high 3

carnival song once i was ....unexpectedly got me....maybe a low 4 ????

OMG 3 feels low but being so willy nilly w 4s they are losing meaning.....know this is higher than other 3s....i am so sorry

this is comically bad to me.... absolutely not the album for me, i am so sorry the country influences are not it this feels like a testament to male mediocrity for this to be in top 1000 albums one must listen to is legitimately shocking (especially seeing what has been excluded in favor of this)... kinda liked the transylvania blues (which is all instrumental 💀) and that's really all i have to say positively...truly almost nothing redeeming at one pt considered a 3 star, almost immediately brought to 2, ending on 1.......... this album made me angry, only ab 35 minutes but felt ab 5 hours long.....fr put me in a bad mood....lyrics feel like mad libs, do not care for the vocals...... I'm so angry....at least the music makes you feel something....an absolutely excruciating listen I'm sure there is some background on why this band is a genius or amazing or whatever but this absolutely does not stand on its own....feels like an inside joke for a niche group of folks

beautiful album....a needed palate cleanser after yesterday.....the instrumentals, the voice, the lyrics.....mr. sinatra know yearning ALWAYS !!! moody and melancholic in the perfect way🫶 mood indigo deep in a dream

full disclosure.....did not finish listening liked better than expected.... mid/high 3 prob

Great album! tbh not a ton to say but a classic....going to rate 4 but prob a lower 4??? again the 5 star system is so evil to me and how my brain works

oh YES all i want carey my little green god, this album was SO GOOD

I was fake and didn't listen to the full album....... good album, prob high 3s, fun energy w live crowd and the who is a classic

oh babe this is fun and weird

didn't take any notes oops.....if remembering correctly stimulation as a standout? liked but not obsessed

classic

wait am i really into radiohead !????? kinda loved this.....absolutely adding to the repertoire nude (in particular blew me away.....so wonderfully atmospheric) all i need reckoner same vibes as the twilight soundtrack lmaooo (compliment)

i dont relate to two sisters my sister and i are different but there is no jealousy and she is the best dk if im just not in the right mood but this isn't really doing it for me rn feel like i should be more into this than I am

previously only familiar w in the court of the crimson king.....initially triggered by the aspic but got over it lmaooooo weirdo but enjoyed, fine background for another excruciating morning at work....prob rate 3 but higher 3 know that

Put off listening but lowkey really enjoying......wish I'd locked in earlier not going to have many specifics to report but this is really unexpectedly working for meeee woooo wow "i feel no empathy for you" (no sympathy) @kate are you relating to this and thinking of me lowkey really high 3....actually really rocked w this lol

damn.....really really good grace, lilac wine, so real, hallelujah, lover, you should've come over...... am i really into jeff buckley ? hmm

mrs Vandebilt nineteen hundred and eighty five tbh was not in the mood for this, better than expected....feel bad.....but once again this list of albums feels so repetitive giving a 3 but prob higher

pinball wizard is so important to me tbh another album that i know is excellent but i was not in the mood for when it came to me this time 😔 feels bad to rate a 3 but this is the truth of this most recent listening session

oh weird im kinda into this lol appreciate the departure from english rock

here's the thing I appreciate this being a vocal masterpiece and it's nice to listen to but this is just not my vibe.....glad we at least had a female artist tho woooo

good great iconic not my vibe im so sorry
