1001 Albums Summary

The hits are 10s. Don’t you remember did not hit, I don’t think the production fit her voice. He won’t go is great my own complaint is I wish there was more accompaniment on the chorus as it falls a bit flat. But well structured and a strong song, with good rhythm. Turning tables is decent, but in general it takes a lot for a ‘slow song’ to peak my intrigue. On the contrary take it home felt like a nice ‘rest’ in the album and hit nicer. I didn’t feel like it was missing anything and it offers some different melodies and nice smooth, then gritty vocals that itch my brain quite nicely. I’ll be waiting is SO GOOD how haven’t I heard it before? The uptempo and swing is very nice and the jazzy vibe is just fun. It reminds me of Amy winehouse, especially in the prechorus. It starts to feel repetitive towards the end but the bridge saves it and rejuvenates the track, and the last chorus feels fresher. I like how one and only builds, the pacing is very refreshing. And I’m a sucker for some organ. I feel like the buildup is more energetic than the chorus though. The bridge is fine, grows on you as it goes. Lovesong hits that hauntingly beautiful vibe that I love to hear. The bass coming in is perfect, with that little spooky top synth / organ. I enjoy how relaxed she sounds singing this. Also my favorite production on the album, it’s perfect. And obv someone like you is one of the greatest songs ever. Love that the album starts and ends on probably the 2 best songs from it.
