1001 Albums Summary

Some bangers but they lost me outside of the singles. Mark Ronson loves his brass. This whole thing feels so 00s I should be wearing a denim miniskirt and leggings. Listened while working.

Wow what a nostalgic start to this whole thing. I remember listening to this on my green ipod mini in my year 8 classroom. Shame the guy turned out a dick but also what an era for collage style album covers. I kind of want to use this as a diary but I don't know how to write anymore! This feels like the Wes Anderson movie of music, heavy on the twee but I still vibe with a lot of it. Hard to separate from my teenage self though.

Listened on the bus across town. Kinda blurred together a little maybe I just don't have taste? Going to see the Barbie exhibition today which feels like the other end of the cultural spectrum. Also Tidal has animated album covers so it looks like it's snowing and I can't decide if that's cute or very corny.

Listened a day late because of big cycle to Gourock outdoor pool yesterday! Tried both versions, can't really say I had strong feelings about either.

I have a weird prg rock soft spot from listening to Genesis as a kid so I didn't hate this. Also I'm so tired from cycling today that it was kinda nice low effort background after catching up on Raw Power first.

Music for xfactor contestants. I want to give this a 2 cos it's really not for me even when it's good but I think my ratings are starting to look a bit sexist :/
