Best songs
Son of sam
Somebody I used to know
Everything reminds me of her
I understand why it was popular as it was a completely new sound for the time it came out. However, it is not something I would voluntarily listen to again. No real top songs. 4.5/10
My wife walked in and said "what the hell are you listening to?"during the first track. Very dissident style of music. Very progressive for the time frame and probably did help other bands find their voice. I liked it more and more I listened to it.
Top songs
Ab/7a
Weeping
4.5/10
Would be good if you were sitting at a coffee shop somewhere. Pretty average. 6/10
Top songs:
Don't know why
Lonestar
Come away with me
Nightengale
Very Queen album. They are one of the best harmonizers ever to play. It is good, but I probably will not listen to it again after today. 6.5/10
Top songs
The loser in the end
The march of the black queen
Great album. Huge Miles Davis fan. Very relaxing for a weekend morning. 7.5/10
Just a person trying to change as many octaves as she can for 36 minutes. Ugh will never listen to this one again. 2/10 (and that is me being nice)
Very average album. I like S&G but not this one. Highlights...
Mrs Robinson
America
4.5/10
One of my favorite albums so far (15 albums in). A great bridge between the late 70s and the earlier 80s. I will definitely listen to this one again. 8.0/10.
Top songs:
All of them
All the songs are great on this one. Second only to Sam Cooke. 8.5/10
Favorite song
I've been loving you too long
90s nostalgia. I am honestly surprised I didn't own this album in 1996. It is fine, but nothing special 5.5/10
I am probably on an island here, but this album is great. There are so many great songs and if I was a goth kid in the early 90s, I would have eaten this up. Still my favorite cure album of all time. Best listen if you have some old school headphones. 8.1/10
Favorite song
Lovesong
But don't sleep on pictures of you or any of the other classics on this album.
Haunting voice and overall ambience. I didn't hate it but didn't love it either. 4.5/10
Top song
Just like the rain
I mean what the hell do you say about this? When this was released was this what Don McLean was talking about? I remember when this album took over TRL, and you could tell the music we loved was over. I can't give this album a 1 because of its cultural significance. So 3.5/10 seems generous enough.
Top song
Ummmm I guess... baby one more time
Smart, tight and all 90s rap! Reminds me a lot of A Tribe Called Quest. I would definetly listen to this again. Also the amount of sampling is on a beastie boys level. 8/10
Favorite song
A day at the races
Lauryn, Wycleaf, and Praz are masterful on this one. Not much else to say.
8.75/10
Top song
Sucker for the cover of no woman no cry.
Where to begin? They are very talented, but it feels really disjointed. I think I was a tad too late to the hair metal scene and I wished I liked this more. 7.25/10
Top song
On Fire
I am not sure how you can scream like that and not lose your voice. The music is not bad, but I can't handle that type of screaming. 4.25/10
Favorite song
Jasco
Itsari
David Bowie is a huge influence on most the bands I listen to do I enjoyed this album. The only song I really know was heroes but the rest was OK. 6.5/10 seems fair.
Best song
Heroes (obviously)
Such a fun/great album. So much fun to listen to. This is right on the border between a 4 or 5 for me. 7.5/10
Top song
Help me Rhonda
One of my favorite albums from my youth. Listened to this multiple times during and it still is good today. 8.75/10
Top song...
Gonna make you love me
Bringing back early 2000s vibe. Hard to believe this album is over 20 years old! There are some great songs on this one. 7.75/10
Top song
Rebillion
This is a solid late 80s/early 90s album. I have never listened to the Depeche Mode much and I knew more songs on this one than I thought.
7.0/10
Top song
Enjoy the Silence
Classic voice, Classic Album. 9.25/10
Top song
You Make Me Feel So Young
She has talent, no doubt. Just not my demographic. Tried to listen to it two times through, but couldn't make it the second time. 4.3/5
Top song
Dance or die
I listened to the link which was the UK version and really enjoyed it. The US version has paint it black on it, but I liked the UK version better. 7/10 for us, 9/10 for UK. So I guess 8/10
I cannot believe I have never listened to this before. Very good relaxing music and the songs are fun to relax to. 7.5/10
Top song
Over the hill
Interesting listen. I really liked a couple of songs, but the other songs were very odd. I like some of the talking heads songs, but his voice wears on me for a whole album. 5.5/10
Top song
I Zimbra
What to say about Elvis??? His music is about as important as Britney Spears was detrimental to what we hear now. Did he or his agent steal black music to make money off of it, most likely. But he is a very significant person to the sixties and seventies sound
Solid album. 7.5/10
Top song
Just because
Average 90s techno. That is all.
3.5/10
Top song I guess...
Jacques your body makes me sweat
I have never listened to a whole Black Sabbath album before and actually really enjoyed this one. I had no idea they were the ones who originally performed the song "changes". 8/10
Top song
Supernaut
I just don't get it or I am not very cool. Probably more of the second one. The guitar playing is really good but I can't get past Steven Tyler's voice. Feels like the same song over and over again. 4.5/10
Top song
Young lust
Classic Bruce album. Raw and stripped down. There are a ton of good songs on this album. 7.75/10
Top song
Atlantic city
It is fine. Nothing special and sounds like a lot of other albums being released at that time. 5/10
Top song
Drunkship of lanterns
Great rock album. Not sure the first song is appropriate for Easter morning, but every song was a fun listen. 8.25/10
Top song
Highway to hell (again I feel I need to mention Easter morning)
Good listen. Really enjoyed about half of these songs, the other half was meh. 6.75/10
Top song
Suspicious Minds (followed closely by wearin' that loved look on)
90s brit pop at its finest. I like a, lot of their music, but had not heard a ton of this one before. 7/10.
Top song
Advert
I actually really liked this one. First half was a bit slow but the second half was great! 8.5/10
Top song
Dub latina
Meh. Very British and very 80s. 2.5/10
Top song
Dear god
I liked this one. It has a cool vibe and the music itself is pretty good. 7.5/10
Top song
Al hassidi terei
The older I get the more I like this album. She has an outstanding voice. It has a raw feeling of the early 70s. 8.25/10
Top song
Son of a preacher man (duh)
Started out as an oasis want to be ended with a psychedelic mind bend. Listened to it while cutting down tree limbs which heightened the experience. 6.75/10
Top song
Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space
I love the kinks. My dad used to call them the poor man's Beatles, but honestly they are a top notch band on their own!!! 8/10
Top song
Picture book
I DID IT!!! You can start a speakeasy and play this entire album and it would be awesome! Her voice is iconic. Just because of the length it is not getting a top score, but if this was 40 minutes long it would be a top album for me.
6.75/10
Top song
My cousin in Milwaukee
This was an interesting listen especially on YouTube since it is not in Spotify. I honestly didn't mind a couple of the songs, but that was it. Also very interesting with the medical commercials and others after every song.
4.5/10
Top song
I see darkness
Dad had this record when I was a kid and we listened to it a ton. Brings back a ton of memories.
Top song
Jemima surrender
One of the best of the 2000s. I love most of these songs.
9.25/10
Top songs
Someday
Always enjoy a kinks album, but not as much as the first one we had. Still a solid album. 7/10
Top song
Waterloo sunset
The doors sound is way ahead of its time. The ability to have a blues/rock sound at that time period is unbelievable. Love me some Doors. 8/10
Top song
Roadhouse Blues
Very English, but I find it enjoyable as decent background music. Probably will not listen to it again. 6/10
Top song
Waterfall
Very average album. Some of the songs are great, others put me asleep. 4.5/10
Top song
Sledgehammer
An amazing voice, probably the best of her generation. She has the ability to put her soul into every song. 8/10
Top song
Million years ago
Ten years ahead of its time. I actually kind of enjoyed this one. Fun listen. 6.5/10
Top song
Requiem
A great blues sound that is an addictive listen. Will definitely listen to this again. 8.5/10
Top song
Mannish boy
Absolute must listen with headphones. Prog rock is not something I usually listen to but enjoyed this one. 7.25/10
Top song
A Passage to Bangkok
Classic album cover, classic songs. Nico and Lou Reed do a great job of setting up a crazy experience. A lot of drugs make for some crazy songs. Heroin is an amazing trip of someone who knows what it is like to be on major drugs. 7.9/10
Top song
Run Run Run
19 year old me loved this album. 46 year old me thought it was OK. Sounded the same especially towards the end. 7.75/10
Top song
Otherside
They can play no doubt about it. Other than "One" , this entire album sounds the same. It could be a Miles Davis style hard rock album. I respect the game, but just average to me. 6/10
Top song
One
It is fine. One of the top albums of all time? No, probably not even one of the top 1,000 albums of all time. Maybe the 1001st? 5/10
Top song
(they all sound similar) further on
Fun listen. I will not revisit this whole album, but there are some solid songs on here. It is a very good late 1980s hip hop album.
7.75/10
Top song
Eye know
I listened to this album a ton when I was a kid. It is solid Neil young album of what looks like many more to come. 7.75/10
Top song
The losing end
80s musak!!! It is over produced, but Robbie Williams does not exist without this guy. So it is good enough for me. 6.5/10
Top song
Faith
Psyadelic rock. I thought Hey Joe was an original song by Jimi Hendrix obviously I was mistaken. It is an ok album but nothing earth shattering. 5.25/10
Top song
Mr. Spaceman
Smoooooooooooooooooth. I thought this was going to be Jimmie's Chicken Shack, but turned out to be something different. This is a very relaxing album. I enjoyed this as background music and the saxophone player is a beast. Did I mention this is smooth. Really enjoyed it. 7.5/10
Favorite song
I dunno, the first one???
You know that girl you dated who was a little crazy but a lot of fun. Then you break up with her and all hell breaks loose. She burns your cat and leaves you weird messages on the answering machine until one day you wake up and find her sitting on the edge of your bed with a knife. This is that as an album. 6/10
Top song
Under the table
This is why I am here. To listen to something I have never heard before. Very solid and different throughout. I have can hear so many indie and alternative bands that have heard something in this band and added it to their own songs. 8.25/10
Top song
Cohesion
It is a good album, but I would not call it great. There are some classic songs on there, just not a great album from front to back. 7.75/10
Top song
Paradise city
You know who is bad, me listening to this album. It has some great songs on it, but also some very mediocre songs. I have become more of a Michael Jackson fan the older I have become. 7/10
Top song
The way you make me feel
Meh, it is just that. It is not the worst thing I have heard on this list, but very far from the best. Not sure twenty years from now this would even sniff a top 1001 album list. Nevertheless I made it through. 4/10
Top song
Stillness is the move
Some decent songs on here and some really weird/drugged out songs. What the hell was the last song even about? 5/10
Top song
I Had To Much To Dream
It is fine. Relaxing 70s soul album. 6/10
Top song
City, country, city
I mean it is not as bad as I thought it was going to be. But not great either 4/10
Top song
Stolen car
Amazing Iggy is still alive. I always liked this album. Obviously track three is weird and a nod to the Velvet Underground. This is one of the founding albums for punk rock.
6.25/10
Top song
No fun
It is the beginning of Ska. I think we didn't really need a beginning of Ska. 4/10
Top song
A message to you Rudy
Great vibe on this album. I enjoyed this and it was better than I expected. 7/10
Top song
Stir it up
Same sappy country love song for 30 minutes. His voice is solid, but that is about it. 3/10
Top song
The weatherman
How did this album make the list?Very below average and I will not listen to this again. 2/10
Top song
Up with people
This album was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. I only knew supertramp by name but not much of their music. Prog rock is tricky and this was a great version of it. 8/10
Top song
Dreamer
Very scattered listening to this album. It reminds me of someone trying to find their voice after being part of a major band. 5/10
Top song
Maybe I'm amazed
It is fine. I remember when this came out and there were so many rave reviews. I was not a fan then, and I am still not a fan. 4/10
Top song
Zebra
It is samba and Jazz in one!!! It is a good background album while I was grading exams. 6/10 seems fair.
Top song
The first one... Desafinado
It is an REM album. What else can you say? It is fine, but not great. 6.5/10
Top song
The one I love
This was a good if not long listen. You can see how bands like the white stripes got their influence from these guys. Solid album. 8.25/10
Top song
Trampled under foot
Great background music if you are into that sort of thing. I listened to this while doing a crossword puzzle and it was very cool and relaxing. 6.5/10
Top song
Dreddoverboard
Fun album from the 90s. Brought back a ton of memories. I will listen to this again. 8.5/10
Top song
Smack my bitch up
Based on what I listen to I should love this album, but I just don't. I appreciate they are responsible for the sound of a ton of indie bands today, but I am just not a fan. 4.25/10
Top song
Debaser
This is shit. 1/10
Top song
None
This album is the definition of cool just like peeing your pants. He had a way of making you feel his music and I am all for it. 8.5/10
Top song
Bitches Brew
This is fine. The more important thing is he had 21 children. 4.5/10
Top song
Cry to me
Made it through. Very repetitive but it was not the worst thing I have heard. Looking at you frank zappa. 5/10
Top song
Angel (because it was the shortest track)
Not bad for country from the mid 80s. I didn't hate it.
6/10
Top song
Guitar town
This is a great album! These guys are beyond talented and I really enjoyed this one. 9/10
Top song
Diminuendo and crescendo in blue
I didn't hate this. It was a fun listen while I was walking. Do I think it is one of the top albums of all time? No. However it is better than some of the other crap I have had to listen to. 6.5/10
Top song
Amazon
I was amazed how many songs I knew off this album. I liked it and his voice is fantastic! However, I am not a seagall. 7.75/10

Bad company (of course!)
