i think over all it s a good album ? i'm saying this not because i liked it as an individual but because of the historical impact.
I have a hard time relating to the music or understanding what it wants me to feel. I get a general sense of confusion, which i am sure is intentional on his part.
The first song i just really didnt like, i had a really hard time with it, but second one especially around 15:40 i really loved. The guitar is really smooth, its absolutely enchanting, kinda like remembering a magic childhood memory that shaped you into who you are today. It's so simple yet so impactful. I really like the end of the second track.
I wish he would just slice the songs more to have more tracks :(
i'm just not the audience i think

Having sat with it now the whole night, i really changed my opinion on it, or at least for the second track. The guitar at the beginning is so soft but evocatif, I cried while listening to it.
It s hard to put into words why it hit me so hard but it did. Even now I get emotional thinking about the beginning of that piece.
I like the middle way more too, I'm starting to understand the jazz feel of it. I can t say I understand these tracks but I am starting to appreciate them more.

This is a master piece, magic in musical form
I think saying that adele has a beautiful voice is a bit of a given. i d say over all i liked the album, of course the famous ones but surprisingly also "i'll be waiting". I didnt really expect her to do these types of tracks and i've been listening to it a lot.
I think what made listening to the album a lot of fun was finding out it's kinda hannigram core :))
It was a lot of fun to imagine scenarios, animatics, who s speaking how it relates to the plot.
In that sense it was a lot of fun, but i don really remember the rest of the tracks.
Over all good!
ATTITUDEEEEE
Brother attitudeeeeeeeee the guitars are really goooooood
surprisingly sad lyrics ? it s interesting how introspective it is while also making social commentaries. Never would have expected it from this album. These seems to be a lot of questioning on what love is, and what it makes you do or feel. Is it really worth it or not. This seems to be a running theme, with it sometimes being a positive, sometimes being a negative.
There s a recuring theme of sadness, wondering why we are alive. for how happy the visuals are, and how vibrant the music is, its really dark. It's like someone screaming in a colorful void. Its quite strange
I definitly get the psychedelic vibe with the third stone from the sun
Foxey is so funn
We are back to cheating and running after love. I wonder what happened in his life for that to be such a big problem. There s a big emphasis on not being understood or heard or seen
Red house OHHHHHHHHH the introoooo Damn what an album. i'm surprised i was able to stay focused the whole time !!! was really nice reading the lyrics with it too
-------
This gave me a very different look to Jimi Hendrix. I usually associat him with the peace and love moubement and so I guessed his music would be about that and weed and partying.
Not at all, it s an incredibly sad album, always juggling between the live of others and the love of oneself.
There s an on going sense of isolation, a fear of not being seen and a fear of commitment with women. The riffs are of course amazing, the songs are catchy and fun to listen to but ya I was really surprised.
I'm really struggling with the rating because yes I really like this album but I don't know if I love this album. Historically and for who the person is this definitely deserves 5 stars but I don't know if I'm gonna come back to it.
I have been able to sit down the whole time and fully listen to it no breaks and that to me means something.
I love the approche that he took for this album. i'm such that during this time this was a revolutionary album where younger folks felt seen and heard.
I think this is just not an album made for me, which is perfectly fine, but i cant remember any melodies or songs.
It was not a bad listen by any means, i was dancing to it at some point in the street but i dont have any strong feelings about it.
Like a lot of these albums i love the historical value of this album i just don't really care for it. It's one of those albums where you had to be there :)
I haven t grown up with disco, it was never a big part of my life.
Seeing the other comments and them writing about how impactful it was, i do wish i understood the time period more but i just dont.
While i do think the songs are a lot of fun in the beginning, halfway through, they keep on repeating and it gets quite annoying.
I want to enjoy this album because i dont listen to disco and want to broaden my taste, but it's maybe just not the album for me.
I think if you love disco and know the history, this is an amazing album. It's just not for me personally :(
But if someone wants to explain the historical impact of this album 100% willing to listen.
Brother attituuuuuuude
The voice is absolutly spendide
The lyrics seem to be boiling with anger in the first song. There seems to be a controlled outburst of energy. Like if anything were to happen you d get the full explosion of emotion she is going through with it very exciting
the intonatino and the voice is really really what captures my attention; The lyrics aren't bland either which is fun, i m really enjoying this album so far. The instrumental is very simple sometimes to a fault but, i wouldnt want it to get in the way of the voice so i'll forgive.

I dont think i was able to finish the album, i thought over all it was good ? I really like when she does more intense songs. These slow soft one seem a little boring to me. She has an incredible voice but it's a shame that the songs are a little boring :/
Lady Soul is an absolut pleasure to listen to.
The voice is incredible, the attitude is present and I ve been listening to it all day.
I know nothing of her and the history of the album didn't really say much, but I'm glad to know her now. I think this is probably gonna be an album I listen to a lot !!!!
Knowing the story behind this album, it definitely makes it more interesting (and it being a big pillar in the gothic genre)
I don't think I can say I liked it, I think it s just not for me, I can appreciate the effort that went into it and the commitment but I don't see myself listening to this album anytime soon
I will say I had an interesting experience with this album, I was able to fall asleep on the bus but the music kept playing. I had this ongoing sense of fight off something evel. I was trying to keep something bad from escaping my body or mind. There was an other person telling me to be strong. A strange experience to say the least.
I'm putting 2 stars not because I think it s bad but because I just couldn't listen to it
I didn't have a proper listen to this album, so I ll revisit it later.
This was a really good album !!! It had the twilight ost :DDDDD as of right now, I can remember any tunes but during the week I could and thought they were catchy (in a good way)
I think I ll come back to this album, nice !
The guitar goes so fucking insane. It a stuck in my mind but the way I don't mind. I have to take a closer look at the lyrics seems to be about sorrow love relationship dymics ect ...
Daze and confused is my favorite one by far
Nice album, was listening to it while going to school.
Definitely vibes type of album, I had a strong glam vibe from it. Nothing really stands out to me, it didn't immediately capture me like other albums did but give it time. I'll listen to it again :)
