Yeah it's alright

Fuck yes, some proper music

It doesn't matter who you are, where you came from or what you think, this is without a shadow of a doubt up there in the top three most important albums ever been laid down

It's fun but what's it doing in this list?

Boring album held up by a few legendary tracks. If it was released today, it would be considered loser indie trash; does this make it ahead of its time?

White guys playing black music but worse.

When are Americans going to realise that country music simply isn't as important as they think it is

Starts strong and falls off a bit, but really enjoyable soft rock jaunt

I'm not miserable enough for this

In a sea of mediocrity, Frankie Goes To Hollywood tried to do something special.

My last favourite track is the title track... The rest is great though.

Giving this 5 because I love it, but it's mainly fun to piss off boomers and yanks

It's pretty cool for an American rock album. Enough variation to keep it interesting, but lacking in power.

This is exactly the kind of thing I signed up for. I didn't really like it that much, but in a sea of country and Brit pop, this is a welcome break.

I quite enjoyed this. Instrumentation kept me interested, and the tone seemed playful and joyful when it needed to, and morose at other times. Reminded me of Pulp in a lot of ways.

Trigger Happy TV! I can't listen to this without picturing Dom Jolly winding people up. It's also pretty good.

Shit Mining

This is the boulder that Planet Rock has been leaning on for decades. Total slammer, I LOVE IT, AND I NEED IT

Michael Stipe's voice is fantastic. I forget how much I love R.E.M.'s melodic tones. Love this album. Love the instrumental experimentation.

That being said, it leaves a lot of excitement on the table.

45 albums in and already a second Neil Young effort. Are there really so few artists out there that we have to have such a density of this whiney gobshite's music? It's just not that fucking good, is it? The mastering on this album is bad even for 1974. I'm so bored of this shit that I can't even be bothered to criticise it more. Catatonic.
