I have listened to some of the album before !
I liked it
I liked the beginning when the guy was like you all are in a way mister Kelly recording artist
- it was fine
- everyone brought this done a rating for me 🙈 did NOT like that song
- not my style of music I don’t think
This was fine I liked the style of music that all sounded similar and was long
I mean it’s queen
Really good
I really liked the beginning of the album there’s was okay
this album kept me on my toes never new what was coming next
I really liked having this on in the background while I did things not something I would listen to like in the car but great chore album
I had a lot of fun listening to this album I really liked it it was full of joy and whimsey.
didnt give a super fair chance but not for me
sorry dolly... not my fav
Liked a lot more than I thought I would. I want your sex reminded me of blurred lines (which ik was released way later but). The beginning of the album was a lot stronger than the end
god i couldnt wait for this album to be over.
The only song I didn’t hate listening to on this album was every breath you take
I liked it a lot
It was fine as background music until it really started to piss me off
I liked this, i get what it was trying to do. I felt like musically and lyrically the whole album tied together really nicely
I made lillian listen to this album with me while doing hw her takes
- no expectations: "this is objectively a bad song"
- multiple times throughout the album: what if I listen to my own music.
my take:
it was fine, sympathy for the devil was the highlight of this album the rest was okay.
A lot of really iconic songs in this album. Really enjoyed listening.
The only time I’ve listened to this album before was in honors English. Turns out this albums really good when a perverted middle aged man isn’t making you analyze it
I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. The first half of the album I was like this is really fucking good and then the Middle I was like this is really bad and then the end brought me back to good
Standout lines:
I’m down to sell records but not my soul”
“Joy wouldn’t feel so good if it wasn’t for pain”
“I’m into having sex not into making love”
I loveeee this album. It really is a perfect pop album
I was between a 4 and a 5 for this album but my rating definitely has some bias cause this is an album my dad loves so I grew up listening to a lot of these songs and I also was listening to it when i was was on a hike and it was just like perfect weather and stuff so maybe not the most accurate rating
Lot of really iconic songs on this album, I enjoyed listening to it a lot but I also really enjoy hip hop so that might play into it. Also this album is super important for the genre of hip hop “walk this way” is the first time hip hop was put in the top five on a billboard top 100 list and proved rap could compete with rock and pop
I liked this a lot. I liked the orchestral use throughout and apparently Eli’s Regina is a Brazilian legend. She spoke up and defied the dictatorship in Brazil with her music.
I can appreciate what its doing but...I dont think I liked this
I hated this... But I thought about how Im supposed to be listening to my computing professor right now and this was more fulfilling than that and thats gotta count for something...
I liked this a lot. Very fun, instrumentals are great, lots of iconic songs. Found the last couple of the songs not as good.
Sorry moby I just couldn’t make it through this 2.5 hour album especially when everything sounded the same
I fucked w this
I liked the last half of this album a lot more than the first - it was fine not my fav
I enjoyed it enough
I liked this a lot - would be higher rated but everything sounded the same/very similar
I was between a 4 and a 5 for this one but I think this is everything an album should be I also just fucked with it heavy
yea this is a great album
every time I thought I liked a song he went ahead and ruined it. The more I listened to it the more I kept saying "god this album sucks." The guitar was fun and the songs only being 3 minutes made it palatable
This was weird and cool and interesting. High school me woulda loved it.
Yea ts was good
yea this is an incredible album. All of the songs are unique but also very comprehensive together. I listened to all i ask driving to/from black hawk A LOT my senior/freshman year and it holds as my favorite from the album.
I really enjoyed listening to this. It was fun and like funny and didn’t take itself too seriously
I like that he acknowledges everyone who helped with the project at the end - did it need to be 12 minutes... no.
I really enjoyed this album a lot, good beats, easy to listen to. I think it would be a really fantastic album if it was slightly shorter? Lotta really great stuff on here tho.
this is right up my alley. Some of the songs were weird but even those had a lot of aspects I liked. I think im just a big fan of a sad guy with a guitar and something to say.
no comment.
I was already in a bad mood and had a headache and ts pissed me off. had to take several deep breaths throughout the ablum bcs of how horrible it was.
unnecessarily long. very solid album tho
none of it stood out to me aside from like 2 of the songs in the middle. A lot of it could be i was in npc mode and wasn't paying attention but
ts was good, it was interesting to listen to, good length.
no opinion. good songs. i think live albums are always fun.
i have nothing to say
this was audibly and lyrically more interesting than the other one we listened to But i liked the last one more.
kings of leon i was unaware of your game
🕺💃
Nothing really stood out
This is great music
I enjoyed this listen not a whole lot else to say
Listening to this while already overstimulated in the airport was a bad choice. I liked the experimentation and like concept but it was pmo so bad
I just couldn't get into this, it took me three days spread out to bring myself to get through it. when i listened i enjoyed it it just felt like pulling teeth to get myself to listen to the full things idk if i just picked bad times to listen or what
Not my fav jazz album
ive always really liked this album, very 90's female rage
this album played in my home a lot growing up. This is the first time ive ever like actually payed attention to it and I really liked it
I can understand why people like this but not for me it was just slow and boring, we'll meet again is the perfect album ender though
Wasn’t anything super special but I fucked with the vibe. Beginning of the album was stronger than the end
Rip to an absolute legend
Okay not music I would listen to but I lowkey really love the production in it and how it’s different from a lot of albums
guys i'm so back
I lowkey thought a lot of the songs sounded very similar nothing really stood out to me. Not my style of music.
Highkey really fucked with this album not songs that I would just like listen to but I thought it was audibly very interesting
I really liked a lot of this album some of it did not enjoy but overall good. I liked the use of different instruments throughout
Very odd album. Very different vibes throughout, my biggest complaint is you could tell me these are different artists and I think id believe you I feel like I like when albums have something tying the songs together.
I liked the theatricality of this album a lot. Funeral for a friend having a long overture type feel set this album up really well. I really enjoyed listening to the majority of this album there was a couple of songs that I didn’t like but overall really good
I wanted to like this album a lot more than I did… it was really long which would have been fine if a lot of it didn’t feel that same? The stuff that was good was really good it just got lost in a lot of mid
I actually really enjoyed listening to this: all of the music I listen to is very much western and I appreciate how shankar is trying to educate people on non western music.
Take this review and rating as a compliment:
- sounds like music my edgy artsy 7 year olds would make
- hated every minute of listening to it
I didn’t hate it, very representative of its time. Nothing I would listen to again but can appreciate it
Type of music a straight man would play for you to show you “real music” after you say you like sabrina carpenter
Fine.
Part of this was enjoyable.
I really liked the sound of this, a lot of it was not what I expected and I enjoyed all of the songs. Grand finale did remind me of nfl theme song. Btwn a 4 and 5
First listening to this album I couldn’t tell if I loved it or absolutely hated it. The more I listen the more it grew on me. The instrumentals are awesome - I love the use of cello in plants and rags. after finishing the album I think I really love it. Need to give it another listen I think.
favorites:
- Sheela-na-gig
- Plants and Rags
- Fountain
The instrumentals were good ig. Did not really in off all of the songs were SO long I was over it by song 3.
I thought I was gonna hate this but really enjoyed. Great storytelling. Was the perfect length. you surprised me willie.
Enjoyed this quite a bit. big fan of the instrumentals and what the album was trying to share. some things at the beginning sounded the same, but overall good listen.
Better than the other one we listened to. Instrumental's were fun. I liked the experimentation a lot. Some of it was a little weird. Still not for me. David you got 7 more albums to impress me...
sounds like how this week has felt 👊‼️
not my favorite work by prince. but anything by prince sits high in my book bcs he was the reason nick and jess ended up together
Ts fire
I liked this way more than I think I should have. But then I thought about a conversation I had with one of my coworkers where he told me the music he listened to was broadway and Metallica and at the time I thought he was weird for that...
I take all of my judgement back felix. I guess I am also in the broadway to Metallica pipeline.
i liked the music i think his voice just pissed me off.
Very British. Very 2000s
It was good
Giving this a 5 felt wrong… but just know the thought was there
I rember enjoying this when I listened
gonna be honest the whole time I was listening to this I was thinking about how much I would rather be listening to Stranger in the Alps with the weather and such. The album was good nothing I think I would listen to normally but I enjoyed the sound and what it was doing.
I liked this a lot
I wanted to like it… there were parts I enjoyed and then that went away quickly
Stand out was obviously psycho killer, everything else was good but not really for me
shoutout to whoever put the full album ad free on youtube. This album was whiplash to say the least. I loved the first song a lot and was like wow! I think im going to love this.
what followed after that was... disappointing to say the least. They felt like recent taylor swift trying to fit as much whole lotta nothing burger 'deep' lyrics in as much as possible.
I was prepared to give this a 1 when bad liquor played and I thought "oh one good song in a whole lotta bad album" and then jenny played and was like holy shit this is great I wish this was on spotify so I could listen to it more. And everything after that I was like this is kinda my shit.
Feeling conflicted and confused as to how I feel about what I just listened to I give this a 2 because that feels the most right, maybe.
This album is dark and introspective and awesome. Cohens voice in this hauntingly beautiful. The lyricism, melodies, and instrumentals are all fantastic. There is also something super poetic about this being released 17 days before he died.
