Some classic songs but felt the collaboration songs were weaker.

I'll be surprised if there is a better album on this list.

Pretty forgettable but inoffensive

Perfectly serviceable

Some excellent tunes and some not excellent tunes.

Groovin' in deed.

Very nostalgic for a millennial like me.

The second half wasn't as good as the first though.

Sonically superb - amazing sounding album without any particular bangers of note. Looking forward to listening to this again when the time is right.

Some really hard hitting and emotional songs, especially in the first half. Felt it trailed off at the end but great overall.

Some absolutely superb songs interspersed with the very forgettable. If this was cut down to a normal album length, I would definitely want to listen to it again!

I also appreciate the variety. The rest of the album isn't like the massive singles at all.

And what a voice!

Amazing music and lyric writing.

I won't be listening again in a hurry

Absolutely superb.

It gets your attention with the brilliant opener Spellbound and doesn't really deviate away from brilliance throughout.

A very pleasant sounding album with some great songs. It does overstay its welcome though.

Great vibe with some 5/5 tracks.

Absolutely phenomenal. Every song has something about it and this album clearly changed the world of music!

Pleasant enough album, just absolutely nothing in it which caught my ear.

Amazing sound throughout when you listen closely. Some outstanding songwriting as well. Not sure every song stands up well enough for 5 stars but it is very close. Would maybe be 5 on another day.

This album really does it job and makes you stand up and pay attention to what it's saying which. I generally find lyrics difficult to pay attention to the first time around but this album was different in that regard.

The beats are superb as well with some clever use of vocal samples.

Pleasantly surprised by this. The music isn't as strong as The Smiths but maybe it's not fair to compare them.
