I See YouThe xx

Rated 6/10

A surprising album to see included on this list. I only knew 3 of their songs beforehand, which all came from their debut. So why this album was chosen...? 🤔

It was alright. I liked the beats but not the singing/talking

Made pleasant background music, but very bland and forgettable

3 ⭐️

Never heard of this band before but I enjoyed this album!

Some nice songs on here. Very chill

4 ⭐️

I was really excited for this album!

It was camp and theatrical. Not too many big hits on it, but Bohemian Rhapsody in itself deserves all the stars

Freddie was so talented, what a voice. And Brian on that guitar was 🔥

5 ⭐️

I really liked this!

Not what I was expecting at all, but I loved the instrumental opening. Perfect music to just zone out to

Insufferable shite!

Why is he wailing and growling like that??

"I'm gonna kill my dog" fuck right off

Pretentious ass lyrics, thinks he's the dogs bollocks

Well. I am not a David Bowie fan. And everytime I see one of his albums pop up, they fill me with dread. This is my 5th Bowie album

This is the first one that I've actually enjoyed! My usual complaint is I don't like his voice
But he actually sang on this one and it wasnt bad at all. The songs were much better too

Wouldn't go as far as calling myself a fan now, but this was an enjoyable album. I see why this one is one of his best

This was such a catchy album. I enjoyed it! Slightly repetitive towards the end but if you like one song, then you like them all

This could have been a really wonderful album. The piano was so relaxing

But - what was with the random moaning? And it was way too long

The 2nd half of the album was much better, and saved it

Another alright album

Musically, it was fine. It sounded familiar in parts - probably heard a song on an advert or something. Nothing to write home about

Sadly sounded like a lot of other albums I've heard on here so far. Nothing unique or memorable for me personally

I have nothing nice to say, so I'll keep my mouth shut

"I don't give a fuck, god sent me to piss the world off" - a perfect quote to sum up this album

I grew up listening to Eminem, and the lyrics don't really shock me anymore. I've always assumed it was an alter ego when he raps. I do understand why people find it offensive though!

I knew a lot of these songs and skits already, and even though I'm not usually a fan of skits, it was enjoyable! My Name Is - probably the biggest song on the album, but there's quite a few big tunes on this one

I think my score was influenced a lot by nostalgia, because some of these songs did not age well lmao (still think they're bangers). Eminem is also very good live so I'm probably biased 😆

I didn't have high hopes going into this one. To me Sheryl Crow is a 1 hit wonder with All I Wanna Do - and I can't stand that song

Was pleasantly surprised that not all of her songs were like that. Some I quite enjoyed. But there was also a lot of bad songs scattered among them

Overall ok album

Rated 4/10

SMOOOOOTH OPERATOOOOOOOR 🌶

Never really cared for that song before, but now it has become iconic for Carlos Sainz fans

I didn't like the album version of Smooth Operator with the talking. Much prefer the single version. I also knew Your Love Is King. Those two songs aside I found the album pretty boring. It all sounded the same and I was bored. Sorry, Sade

Nice voice though

A 2.5 rounded down

Meh

This was so boring. Nice enough songs but an album worth was too much. Recognised 2 songs but probably wouldn't listen again

This is the 3rd Leonard Cohen album I've had. The others I rated a 2 - because his voice was that bad. So I fully expected the same from this album

To my surprise, his voice isn't as bad here at all! Songs were alright, nothing that stood out massively
