some good iconic songs at the beginning but feels very same-sy afterwards. not a bad listen
really good stuff, each song was unique and distinguishable which i always appreciate in an album. plus, Lauryn Hill's vocals are nothing short of iconic.
short n' sweet album, none of the songs really stood out to me but they felt different enough from each other, which i appreciate. i liked it well enough, but it's not the type of jazz i'd relisten to, if that makes sense. the album being a live performance is cute though
gay people make the most soulful music of all time. fucking love elton john. "indian sunset" maybe the best in this one for me
really love the theatrical nature of this, and how the album is basically just a big musical act, even being able to invoke the storytelling elements of one through sound alone. i felt that it was a great critique on british and american imperialism, and it shows the progression of small injustices and the growing awareness of them snowballing into something bigger, and scarier.
i've been going back-and-forth on my 5-star rating because i'm afraid i'm somehow getting "duped" into liking it, but i've ultimately decided to be honest about how i feel, and i feel pretty damn good about it.
some good fuckin jazz yessir
honestly pretty charming album, some of the message was pretty good even if some stuff here and there was a bit whatever. but i appreciate it for feeling authentic
i left some listening notes for once so enjoy
first song - i got fucking scared my audio wasnt working for a hot second. interesting vibe with the first song, definitely not what i associate with beastie boys so i'm already excited for this album. shoutout to all italian girls and puerto rican girls i guess
second song - okay Yeah there's the beastie boys, this is fucking incredible the noises are BOMBASTIC and i love the stinky fucking bass
i havent even listened to all of it and i'm already smelling a 5
LMAO THE PSYCHO SAMPLE fucking incredible.
final verdict: it was indeed a 5
TV Dinners and the music video is damn good. love those guitar solos
it was ok, this type of singing is a bit grating for me unfortunately, and some of the more guitar-heavy songs were meh, but the other instruments were really good, i appreciate music that lets you hear an electric guitar screech and the cymbals crash down
its so fucking good i fucking Love jazz. i almost gave it a four but i think it's a five + getting added to my playlists bc ill definitely be relistening to this
I FUCKING LOVE JAZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this was kinda grating to listen to and i can't even explain why. woe, away with ye, doctor The Who!
it's not the type of genre i'm really that passionate about BUT it's undeniably an iconic album. giving it a 4 because of Starman
such a fun album, i love how goofy it is. this is what a lovingly made scrapbook with magazine cutouts would sound like i think
Fuck Yes Sir this shit's so damn good. restless, introspective, melodic, poetic, anxious, itching to be let out - this is what this album conveyed to me. i feel my own restlessness put at ease, like someone plucked that part of my brain and made it do laps around the block until it tired itself out, and then gave it a nice massage.
everyone say thank you david byrne
