Best songs
Son of sam
Somebody I used to know
Everything reminds me of her
I understand why it was popular as it was a completely new sound for the time it came out. However, it is not something I would voluntarily listen to again. No real top songs. 4.5/10
My wife walked in and said "what the hell are you listening to?"during the first track. Very dissident style of music. Very progressive for the time frame and probably did help other bands find their voice. I liked it more and more I listened to it.
Top songs
Ab/7a
Weeping
4.5/10
Would be good if you were sitting at a coffee shop somewhere. Pretty average. 6/10
Top songs:
Don't know why
Lonestar
Come away with me
Nightengale
Very Queen album. They are one of the best harmonizers ever to play. It is good, but I probably will not listen to it again after today. 6.5/10
Top songs
The loser in the end
The march of the black queen
Great album. Huge Miles Davis fan. Very relaxing for a weekend morning. 7.5/10
Just a person trying to change as many octaves as she can for 36 minutes. Ugh will never listen to this one again. 2/10 (and that is me being nice)
Very average album. I like S&G but not this one. Highlights...
Mrs Robinson
America
4.5/10
One of my favorite albums so far (15 albums in). A great bridge between the late 70s and the earlier 80s. I will definitely listen to this one again. 8.0/10.
Top songs:
All of them
All the songs are great on this one. Second only to Sam Cooke. 8.5/10
Favorite song
I've been loving you too long
90s nostalgia. I am honestly surprised I didn't own this album in 1996. It is fine, but nothing special 5.5/10
I am probably on an island here, but this album is great. There are so many great songs and if I was a goth kid in the early 90s, I would have eaten this up. Still my favorite cure album of all time. Best listen if you have some old school headphones. 8.1/10
Favorite song
Lovesong
But don't sleep on pictures of you or any of the other classics on this album.
Haunting voice and overall ambience. I didn't hate it but didn't love it either. 4.5/10
Top song
Just like the rain
I mean what the hell do you say about this? When this was released was this what Don McLean was talking about? I remember when this album took over TRL, and you could tell the music we loved was over. I can't give this album a 1 because of its cultural significance. So 3.5/10 seems generous enough.
Top song
Ummmm I guess... baby one more time
Smart, tight and all 90s rap! Reminds me a lot of A Tribe Called Quest. I would definetly listen to this again. Also the amount of sampling is on a beastie boys level. 8/10
Favorite song
A day at the races
Lauryn, Wycleaf, and Praz are masterful on this one. Not much else to say.
8.75/10
Top song
Sucker for the cover of no woman no cry.
Where to begin? They are very talented, but it feels really disjointed. I think I was a tad too late to the hair metal scene and I wished I liked this more. 7.25/10
Top song
On Fire
I am not sure how you can scream like that and not lose your voice. The music is not bad, but I can't handle that type of screaming. 4.25/10
Favorite song
Jasco
Itsari
David Bowie is a huge influence on most the bands I listen to do I enjoyed this album. The only song I really know was heroes but the rest was OK. 6.5/10 seems fair.
Best song
Heroes (obviously)
Such a fun/great album. So much fun to listen to. This is right on the border between a 4 or 5 for me. 7.5/10
Top song
Help me Rhonda
One of my favorite albums from my youth. Listened to this multiple times during and it still is good today. 8.75/10
Top song...
Gonna make you love me
Bringing back early 2000s vibe. Hard to believe this album is over 20 years old! There are some great songs on this one. 7.75/10
Top song
Rebillion
This is a solid late 80s/early 90s album. I have never listened to the Depeche Mode much and I knew more songs on this one than I thought.
7.0/10
Top song
Enjoy the Silence
Classic voice, Classic Album. 9.25/10
Top song
You Make Me Feel So Young
She has talent, no doubt. Just not my demographic. Tried to listen to it two times through, but couldn't make it the second time. 4.3/5
Top song
Dance or die
I listened to the link which was the UK version and really enjoyed it. The US version has paint it black on it, but I liked the UK version better. 7/10 for us, 9/10 for UK. So I guess 8/10
I cannot believe I have never listened to this before. Very good relaxing music and the songs are fun to relax to. 7.5/10
Top song
Over the hill
Interesting listen. I really liked a couple of songs, but the other songs were very odd. I like some of the talking heads songs, but his voice wears on me for a whole album. 5.5/10
Top song
I Zimbra
What to say about Elvis??? His music is about as important as Britney Spears was detrimental to what we hear now. Did he or his agent steal black music to make money off of it, most likely. But he is a very significant person to the sixties and seventies sound
Solid album. 7.5/10
Top song
Just because
Average 90s techno. That is all.
3.5/10
Top song I guess...
Jacques your body makes me sweat
I have never listened to a whole Black Sabbath album before and actually really enjoyed this one. I had no idea they were the ones who originally performed the song "changes". 8/10
Top song
Supernaut
I just don't get it or I am not very cool. Probably more of the second one. The guitar playing is really good but I can't get past Steven Tyler's voice. Feels like the same song over and over again. 4.5/10
Top song
Young lust
Classic Bruce album. Raw and stripped down. There are a ton of good songs on this album. 7.75/10
Top song
Atlantic city
It is fine. Nothing special and sounds like a lot of other albums being released at that time. 5/10
Top song
Drunkship of lanterns
Great rock album. Not sure the first song is appropriate for Easter morning, but every song was a fun listen. 8.25/10
Top song
Highway to hell (again I feel I need to mention Easter morning)
Good listen. Really enjoyed about half of these songs, the other half was meh. 6.75/10
Top song
Suspicious Minds (followed closely by wearin' that loved look on)
90s brit pop at its finest. I like a, lot of their music, but had not heard a ton of this one before. 7/10.
Top song
Advert
I actually really liked this one. First half was a bit slow but the second half was great! 8.5/10
Top song
Dub latina
Meh. Very British and very 80s. 2.5/10
Top song
Dear god
I liked this one. It has a cool vibe and the music itself is pretty good. 7.5/10
Top song
Al hassidi terei
The older I get the more I like this album. She has an outstanding voice. It has a raw feeling of the early 70s. 8.25/10
Top song
Son of a preacher man (duh)
Started out as an oasis want to be ended with a psychedelic mind bend. Listened to it while cutting down tree limbs which heightened the experience. 6.75/10
Top song
Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space
I love the kinks. My dad used to call them the poor man's Beatles, but honestly they are a top notch band on their own!!! 8/10
Top song
Picture book
I DID IT!!! You can start a speakeasy and play this entire album and it would be awesome! Her voice is iconic. Just because of the length it is not getting a top score, but if this was 40 minutes long it would be a top album for me.
6.75/10
Top song
My cousin in Milwaukee
This was an interesting listen especially on YouTube since it is not in Spotify. I honestly didn't mind a couple of the songs, but that was it. Also very interesting with the medical commercials and others after every song.
4.5/10
Top song
I see darkness
Dad had this record when I was a kid and we listened to it a ton. Brings back a ton of memories.
Top song
Jemima surrender
One of the best of the 2000s. I love most of these songs.

Top songs
Someday
Always enjoy a kinks album, but not as much as the first one we had. Still a solid album. 7/10
Top song
Waterloo sunset
The doors sound is way ahead of its time. The ability to have a blues/rock sound at that time period is unbelievable. Love me some Doors. 8/10
Top song
Roadhouse Blues
Very English, but I find it enjoyable as decent background music. Probably will not listen to it again. 6/10
Top song
Waterfall
Very average album. Some of the songs are great, others put me asleep. 4.5/10
Top song
Sledgehammer
An amazing voice, probably the best of her generation. She has the ability to put her soul into every song. 8/10
Top song
Million years ago
Ten years ahead of its time. I actually kind of enjoyed this one. Fun listen. 6.5/10
Top song
Requiem
A great blues sound that is an addictive listen. Will definitely listen to this again. 8.5/10
Top song
Mannish boy
Absolute must listen with headphones. Prog rock is not something I usually listen to but enjoyed this one. 7.25/10
Top song
A Passage to Bangkok
Classic album cover, classic songs. Nico and Lou Reed do a great job of setting up a crazy experience. A lot of drugs make for some crazy songs. Heroin is an amazing trip of someone who knows what it is like to be on major drugs. 7.9/10
Top song
