One of my favourite albums ever, part of falling in love with music for me as a child, 5/5 no notes love you Brian. You're gonna have to fight OK Computer at the end

I enjoyed this; she's got a lovely voice, the songs are pretty chilled and Neil Hannon's a genius so that helps a lot. Shame it's got a lower rating here than it should but that's misogyny and people who are too stupid to like The Divine Comedy for you

Played Maybe I'm Amazed backwards but alas, no recipe for a 'really ripping lentil soup', so that was a lie. Absolute standout track. The rest... I mean, the post Beatles disappointment must have been HUGE.

I liked this at the time, but it's really not dated well. Beyonce did way better stuff later and it makes this seem a bit unaccomplished in comparison.

Ninety808 State

Rated 2/10

This would be okay for background music in a club scene for a TV show or play, but that's about the only occasion I'd choose to have it on.

I can get on with rap when it’s a bit more coherent like this (or say, Jurassic 5). But it hasn’t aged well. Bits that were ‘edgy’ are now just unpleasant, but it definitely did change things in music so deserves its place on this list.

I love Crowded House. Their greatest hits album is a perfect album. This has some tracks I'd not heard and a couple that are amazing, will listen again.
