Most of the tracks were really good and the different music styles incorporated into several songs was clear but kept in with the overall sound of the band. Most everything feels very clean and the way Debbie’s vocals glide over top everything is good. Unfortunately there’s like three songs that I would probably skip if listening to again.

I use to listen to this all the time as a kid and Run of the Mill used to be favorite song as like a 12 year old. That being said the original release fizzles out and the cd release order of everything is out of line.

The whole album kept hitting an exposed nerve or something. I think it’s probably all in the execution though. The vocals in this are killing me and everything wasn’t put together quite right. It has cool musical ideas but they’re just put together or assembled incorrectly. If this got played regularly in public Orange Juice might make my list of enemies. I feel ukind of bad about this low of a score but I got to be honest. In places it does almost wrap around to being so bad it’s good but it’s not quite there for me.

Squirreljak opening!
“I was following the” repeated haunts me to this day. It strikes fear into my heart.

Fav: The Queen of Eyes

2.5
To start, I only listened to the 40 min original version. The album mostly just reminded me of music I like better that came out before this. It feels unpolished and like it was dated when it came out. That being said the songs do feel distinct from each other and have their own things going on which is nice. I think some talented and creative people could make some great covers of some of these songs but the sound here just doesn’t work for me.

But she doesn’t see. She just doesn’t see. No she doesn’t see. But she doesn’t see.
I don’t see what the big deal is. I listened to it intently and then while I was doing chores. It was kind of boring listening to it intently but decent at being background music. Maybe there’s something deeper there but I’m not seeing it. Also Portuguese kind of melts my brain when I hear it, not a problem of the language just a problem with my brain hearing like Slavic Spanish but I guess that’s sort of what Romanian is.
Fav: Early Morning Breeze, My Blue Tears

Here I am but replace every time she says here I am with the “here I am” from Rock You Like A Hurricane. First two songs start out with cool lyrics but kind of boring music the middle songs are good but then The Way I See You and the last song are maybe the worst on the album. Overall pretty good.

How much more (of this list) can I take before I go crazy?
At the end of Skidmarks On My Heart they sing "I'm driving in risk" but I kept hearing "I'm dominant race" and I was like what am I listening to.
Anyway, this album frustrated me. Almost every song needed something more, more shape, more speed and energy or more emotion. Like if these songs were like 20% more interesting in some way or another this would be an amazing album. It's still good though.
Album cover: 4 I think its color palette and take on the basic these are the band members is good.
Album title: 1.5 A cappella group name type of title in a bad way. They do have We Got The Beat as a song in there though so not quite a complete throwaway album title.

I’m having trouble rating this one. It has good comedic value but not as much as other albums and it veers from being funny into annoying a bit too often. I didn’t smile quite a bit while listening to it which counts for something. I probably will end up listening to a song or two from this now and again. The more I think about it maybe the more I like it. I guess it does a good job at being music for a particular mood.

With respect to Fats and his contribution to the music world, I did not enjoy this one. It’s a cool piece of history but the recording hit a similar nerve as the Orange Juice one. The rhythm piano was especially grating to me and it was in like every song. I think part of my problem with it is just the limitations of the recording in that era.
Album Cover: 2 I guess this was before they really tried but Fats has a great smile so that boosts it up.
Album Title: 1.5 I guess this was also before they thought about naming albums

This is the kind of music they have in a movie theater when you show up before the have the ads/previews playing. Maybe the whole spartan sound playing in an empty hall thing was cool at the time, and it is a little cool, but I don't know that there's enough emotion in the music for me to latch on to. Also they sound so disinterested in what they're singing in a bad way. Also is Infinity a weird cover of Wicked Game?
Album Cover: 3.5 The cover is a good representation of the sound and mood I think the album is going for, maybe not super interesting though.

Kind of a sleepy album. The hobo song was made me smile but I'm not sure they have an h-word card. The less country the songs were the less interesting they got.
Album Cover: 2 What were they trying to achieve with the slanted picture in the weird colored border? I don't know that it would be great if it was just the picture but I think it would be better.

I don't like this fella's voice. When I went to look at the lyrics for 17 because I was like, "what did he just say?" the music stopped and youtube said you cant listen while reading the lyrics for music for kids. I don't know if it glitched out or what but that was a comedic song to do that on. Overall mostly just a bit bland but I think with a different singer I'd probably like it more.

Man, people really thought this was peak sound back in the 80’s. Jump has been wheeled out for so many advertisements since then. I don’t care for pretty much any part of this, for me the most interesting songs musically have the worst lyrics. If you like the sound then I guess there’s something here for you but to me this is just obnoxious. Actually the way I disliked the Fats Domino album is sort of how I feel about this one strangely enough, they’re both weird time capsules to times and places I feel no affinity or interest toward.

Fluctuates between genius and brainlessness like a YouTube poop. I think there's a 5/5 album in here but it's buried in so much useless repetitive stuff. Nearly ever song overstays its welcome by like 50-66% and then the album is like 33-50% too long and that's the original track listing. It's kind of a shame to see the obvious potential of this lost in the lack of restraint where every piece and the whole builds something great and then makes you feel stupid for liking it because they just kept repeating the same objects.

I kind of want to really hate and dismiss Green Day but part of me holds me back. I think maybe the part of me that likes Green Day is the part of me I hate the most. So listening to Green Day is sort of a guilty pleasure for me in which I derive so little pleasure for the amount of disgust I feel. Maybe it’s similar to eating something like a starburst or some Hershey’s chocolate and I think that’s even worse than something I just outright hate because then I would always avoid it instead of accepting it when it’s offered and feeling confused in addition to repulsed.

I think Come Together might be the most overplayed Beatles song, I still like it though. Almost every song is great, but I think Maxwell and Octopus Garden are not up to par with the rest of the album. Yeah it's amazing how different it is song to song but how themes recur and things fit together. The End not being the last song is something I'm very divided on and Her Majesty is such an odd way to end everything but has some charm.

I liked it, it made me feel like I was taking a stroll just thinking to myself. It fades into the background really easy, but it also can be something to really focus on because of the lyrics and fluid music. Putting that aside I don't know that there was much that really reached me lyrics or songs.

What a legend of an album. It's got such a variety in it and while only like 2 or 3 make it into what I think are the most popular Beatles songs I find almost all of them to be pretty great. Long, long, long is one of my favorite songs (although you have to turn the volume up for it) and Cry Baby Cry is another one of my favorite Beatles songs. Happiness is a Warm Gun, Mother Nature's Son, I'm So Tired are amazing but I think to most are just kind of there on the album. Revolution 9 and Wild Honey Pie are out there. This would maybe be the Beatles album I would take on a desert island. On Youtube music Savoy Truffle has the fewest listens, that should not be the case.

I just think it's neat. Nothing special going on here but it's a nice listen. First half has a bit more going on for it in my opinion.

The start was interesting but either this was made to be taken in small doses or it really hit a wall. I think I've overdosed on the 80's after listening to this.

Opens with potentially Bob Dylan's best and is immediately followed by what feels like a parody of a Bob Dylan song. At times the harmonica was a bit much.

Overall I thought the sound was nice, but it was just too simple in a boring way. Especially in the sung melodies the melodies were repetitive and plain. If the melodies were more complex or sung more expressively or had more going on behind them I think this would be a very good album. Also the day I listened to this I was out camping and ended up experiencing pissing in the wind firsthand so it was pretty funny having it come on while I drove home.

It's interesting we got Court and Spark only a few ago. I think I prefer that album; it's a bit more consistent for me. After listening to Court and Spark, most of the changes I thought it could use showed up in this one and I guess I was wrong in my diagnosis.

Overall just kind of dull and annoyingly repetitive at times. I think the band was just too in love with their own sound or something. Maybe if I found it more engaging I could get on board, but it just wasn't there.
Cover: 5 In the way it represents the music this is perfect down to the lack of sophistication and depth. As a work of art on its own probably like a 3

Now this is music. First listen I enjoyed it a decent amount but I didn't appreciate Joanna's voice which to be fair sounds sort of like the nerd kid on The Simpsons. Second listen it really came together. This sort of scratches the same itch I get for contemporary opera. Really amazing, this is what makes this quest worth it.

Do you think in twenty years people will look back on whisper pop and think what were those guys thinking? Before I went to bed I checked the next album coming up, I had a dream that the first song on the album was really good. Unfortunately White Dress was just alright and mentioned Kings of Leon and Florida. I had the playlist on my second monitor and when the music video for Let Me Love You Like A Woman was on I looked over and was like "woah, there's Joan Baez". That was the most exciting part of listening to this.

Almost every song was above average but barely not good enough for me to want to listen to it on the regular. Also Seven Nation Army is one of the first songs I remember being played nonstop on the radio.

For some reason I’ve listened to Kid A like 10 times and never this one. I think between the two Amnesiac might be a little better. Between the two you could get a 5/5 single album or I think it should have just been a 4/5 double.
