Don’t love this anywhere near as much as pet sounds for a punchy album I got bored?

The best to ever do it

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Feb 08 2026

Enjoyed this - wish people did more live albums. This show was a week after they released their album with surrender on it - you can feel how much the crowd responded. Album feels big but also warm and cosy didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did.

Stardust by Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson in his crooner era liked it more than I thought I would

Embarrassingly enjoyed this way more than I wanted to. Can’t believe it devastated

Diamond Life by Sade

I don’t understand how anyone wouldn’t like this album. Everytime I listen I have a new favourite song - the gift that keeps giving

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Feb 15 2026

Don’t love this anywhere near as much as pet sounds for a punchy album I got bored?

Feb 16 2026

Beautiful album - another artists who has 4 long songs for his album. Makes it impossible to skip through and I was locked tf in. Loved it
