1001 Albums Summary

so, this is my first album to listen to in this website, so far i find the first song (sympathy for the devil) quite nice and a good pick to be the first song, it's a nice first impression (woo woo), i'd heard about the band beforehand, obviously, i don't live under a rock, but i never gave any of their songs a chance at all since i usually listen to other music genres second song (no expectations): not for me, not bad nontheless third song (dear doctor): i liked this a bit more, really liked the lyrics fourth song (parachute woman): short song but i loved the rhythm, i've got nothing else to say about it fifth song (jigsaw puzzle): so far, i like this song way more than the previous ones, for both the lyrics and the instruments, it's very up-beat, the kind of song i'd listen while on the car or the bus going far away (maybe for some that's a bs description) sixth song (street fighting man): gotta love the drums in this one, personally in my top 3 fave instruments, not the #1 fan of the lyrics in this one but a very nice song, might add it to my pl only for the drums seventh song (prodigal song): i love when lyrics tell you a story, nice classy guitar and rhythm overall, the type of rhythm in a classic country movie maybe? well, easy top 3 best songs on this album eighth song (stray cat blues): nice rhythm but the lyrics are a no no for me ninth song (factory girl): again, nice rhythm but i don't like the lyrics, not for me tenth song (salt of the earth): honestly, a very nice song to finish the album, i liked the bg chorus, the lyrics and the instruments are lovely overall this album is okay, it wasn't for me at all and i know some lyrics were written many years but i just cannot like them all i know some fans may come at me but at the end of the day we all have different tastes i give it 3 stars (actually it's like a 6.5 or 7 out of 10 BUT i don't feel like giving it 4 stars imo) bc i actually enjoyed some songs, while other were not my cup of tea i won't be adding the whole album in my downloads but MAYBE 2 or 3 songs might be added to my pl depending on how much they grow on me

second album to rate! nothing to do with the music at all, but i kinda love when bands name their first album the same as their band name, it's also my first time listening to them or even hearing about them, i'm listening to the first song as i write this and i lowkey feel like i'm gonna like this one more than the album i got on first day (don't wanna jinx it tho) first song (suite: judy blue eyes): i loved it!!!! i like long songs and i think it works very good as an opening to the album, tho i also think it could work too for the closing, it's very likely i'll download it after finishing the album second song (marrakesh express): i like it too! not as much as the first one, but it's very upbeat and it was good! third song (guinnevere): this one is a loooot calmer but i also liked it a lot! the lyrics are my fave so far, i love when songs' lyrics make you imagine scenarios and give you a nice message fourth song (you don't have to cry): i liked it too, another calm song and very nostalgic fifth song (pre-road downs): it's a nice song, not my fave tho sixth song (wooden ships): lord, this song is actually very poethic and worth an analysis, it's very very good and intentional with it's lyrics plus nice instrumental seventh song (lady of the island): this song is so so cute!! instant addition to my calm and lovely songs playlist eight song (helplessly hoping): actually bittersweet song, it's very lovely but you can tell from the lyrics that there's much to it than just that, again very poethic ninth song (long time gone): i swear to god, for their first album, the lyrics are very great! again loved the lyrics, the rhythm in this one is not my fave on this album but still does it for this song tenth song (49 bye-byes): nice rhythm and how dynamic it is, again liked the lyrics a lot, don't have complaints at all, it's just that some of the songs above this one were just better imo so, my final rating? if it could be possible, it would be 4.5/5!! for a first album, it's very great, both in lyrics and instrumental! i won't rate it 5 stars tho, but only bc i'll keep the 5 star rates to my faves, tho that could change with a few more listens very lovely album, i'm kinda glad this was my second one bc the first i got, while it wasn't a bad one, it wasn't my cup of tea either well, i ended up downloading the whole album, lmaooo, and for sure i'll be listening to it from time to time! pd: i'm so glad i didn't jinx it and actually loved it overall!
