I wasn't expecting much. But the album was pleasant to listen to. I always like Working Class Hero. In the end, I probably won't listen to the album again.

I don't listen to R.E.M. that often, but I really like a few of their songs. I didn't hear any of them on this album. The music didn't bother me, but that's all it was. I probably won't listen to it again.

Too bad, I thought I would hear new blues for myself. There were also a few good approaches. Nevertheless, it did not meet my taste at any point. More and more the music got on my nerves. When I jumped for minutes in individual pieces and didn't notice any change, I stopped the album.

The French chatter gets on my nerves. Serge's whispered chanting and Jane's breathy melodies make me more aggressive than the hip hop I don't appreciate.

I had placed Alice in Chains more in the gothic area. I was probably wrong. In fact, the right genre is grunge. I hadn't noticed the album before, but I liked it. It won't be one of my top favorites. But it was good to have heard it.

Funny, American punk. It was a lot of fun to listen to that. But it doesn't have to happen again.

I liked the album. I can understand Bowie's own description of his music on the album as Plastic Soul. I am always impressed by his voice. Overall, this album is not one of my top favorites, but it was still good to listen to.

I don't like most live albums. This album is good and it seems to me that the band had fun. It wasn't particularly challenging to listen to the album. However, there was no track that I absolutely have to listen to again.

I had fun listening to this album. In the end it will not one of my favorites.

I enjoyed the album a lot, not only because of Paranoid and Iron Man, but also because of that.

At some point, my wife drew my attention to this album from her collection. I didn't know it yet and was thrilled. Since then, Seven Nation Army has been a permanent fixture in my favorite songs and party playlists. I find it remarkable that I always had the impression that I had heard this album in my early youth. Great

Somehow the album is funny. The music fits the cover very well. A confused extended family crawls out of the forest and plays at a medieval festival. The vocals are not bad at all. The whole arrangement seems very amateurish and sounds thin. In fact, some of the harmonies remind me of the psychedelic passages and experimentation of some of the real greats of the time. Nevertheless, after playing a few tracks, I had had enough of the bumbling.

A great album. I really enjoyed listening to it in its entirety and not just the best-known "Walk on the Wild Side". Apart from that, I'm not that familiar with Lou Reed. I'll do something about that.

I have never heard of "The Darkness" and their album. After I played the first few tracks, the music increasingly got on my nerves. The singer does manage to sing high falsetto notes without it becoming screeching. But I still didn't like it.

With today's album, the notes are written quickly and in advance of listening to the whole thing. The album is great. I was belatedly excited about Nevermind at the time, the album was hard to get at my usual retailers. That's when In Utero fell into my hands. I was thrilled. And I still am.

Beyoncé makes music that I only rarely hear on the radio. However, I read in an interview that her voice and vocal volume are truly remarkable. So I thought it would be worth giving the album a try. I quickly came to the conclusion that the attempt was fruitless. It may be that the voice is great. But what does she make of it? Really boring pop with a lot of squawking. What do people like about it? What are they applauding for? I can think of a quote from Dangerous Loves. The tenor doesn't get applause for clearing his throat. I thought there was a lot of truth in it, but I'm obviously wrong, at least with Beyoncé. There is no zero rating, so there is a second point for the certainly great voice.

A very good album. It was fun to listen to, especially the title song 'London Calling'. That's one of my top songs.

I've rarely listened to Meat Loaf, but I usually like it when I do. There are great songs on the album. I also like to think of Meat Loaf's appearances in various films. He was great in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" as Eddie and really great in "Fight Club" as Bob Paulson and as The Lizard in "51st State".

I like the album very much. A great soft sound. Sometimes very soft, then funky again. Good vocals.
