This is exactly my type of music. Reggae just hits the right spot. Bob Marley doesn't have a single bad song

Fever To Tell

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

4/5

It's a really good album. Unexpected and unusual sound considering how little i listen to rock these days. I would listen to it again

The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

3/5

It's a really good album. The suburbs is my favorite song. I loved the transition to ready to start. At some point the lead singer changes, that was unexpected.

Lust For Life

Iggy Pop

1/5

This is not my type of music at all. But it was not bad, i'm sure a lot of people love it.

Tracy Chapman

3/5

I am on the fourth song, THIS here is exactly what i expected from Tracy Chapman. I am for sure going to re listen to this several times. Her voice is o unique and amazing. Cant believe this is the first time i listen to this album in full!

Red Headed Stranger

Willie Nelson

1/5

This was a hard listen, it's not my kind of music taste hence it took 2 days to finish. Hopefully the next one is better

Crooked Rain Crooked Rain

Pavement

1/5

the lyircs are so dumb and the main singer's voice is just barely tolerable. This just isn't what i expected

Violent Femmes

1/5

It started a little off, i wish i didn't focus so much on the lyrics but can't help they make no sense. confessions is a good song

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

3/5

He knows how to connect with the crowds. His music is slow and lyrics makes sense for the time

Harvest

Neil Young

2/5

This is a good album. The instruments are very high almost from the beginning of the song. I could not remember what the lyrics were about. I did like the last song, words

2/5

All your love hits you right out of the gate, good song. I hear so many instrumentals, this was definitely on purpose and well executed

3/5

This needs a second listen. Some songs are smooth and emotional some are all over the place but you can tell he thinks a lot about his lyrics.

The beats and instrumentals are completely new to me. It sounds like a mix of dance and futuristic electronic. I liked this album a lot. Definitely worth a second listen

She's always a woman is the song i can relate most to. it's somehow frustrating to hear how good the song 'get it right the first time' is but that chorus and bridge sucks! everybody has a dream is a good song

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

3/5

This is a really good album. One thing i noticed is the very long song and album titles. You said something is clear about New York. We float is a great song.
