Maybe it is just me getting old but I kind of dug this. It just all felt kind of nice and homey.

This sounded like the ambient background music to a movie I don't want to see

This was mid...nothing bad nothing great. They just make me feel mellow and almost like nothing at all. Which is good sometimes. Like meditating but not

So at first it was full of sexist musical tropes of this era. Mother's little pill, oh women can't handle stress so now they are taking drugs, Under my Thumb while a classic song its really a WTF moment, and Stupid Girl MIGHT have a valid point but my from my perspective when most guys are complaining like this the woman is not stupid, they are! Then we moved into Going Home and I have no idea why that needed to be 11 minutes other than they thought they were cool enough people would just want to hear a mediocre song that went nowhere. After listening farther I think it was to try and make us appreciate the slog that came next (snooze...)
I don't hate the Rolling Stones, but also I don't love them. If this is all they made I would not be listening to them anymore.

I love Solsbury Hill. The rest had moments, but also felt a little bit all over the place. Individually songs were good but I had to keep checking if this was still the same album because the songs were just a little all over the place.

Am I going to listen to this everyday, no. But it was beautiful and wonderful. I didn't understand exactly what he was saying, but it didn't matter. It was praising the earth, living and the beauty and joy in this world. I wanted to dance and just love the joy of life. It was long, but also not enough time to be thankful for life

So I like Incubus but I don't think I like a whole album of incubus. They are unique, distinct and different. But it kinda drags, but not because the music is dragging, just too much of the same. Individually I enjoyed the songs, but its kind of like a seven course meal if everything is the same flavors. Everything tastes good, but by course 5 you are just not as excited anymore. I love the song Drive but by the time I got there I was just kind of meh with it. It no longer felt special, it was just another one of the courses. Pardon me is pretty beautiful though...

Snoozefest...beautiful but a snoozefest

It got a little stranger as it went on. Psychedelic music at times has this really cartoonish quality about it and this was one of those times.

Song 2 is classic so that was fun. I also really liked the last two songs, Essex Dogs was a little weird and quirky and Movin On was fun and up beat. The rest was just kinda upper mid, nothing special but nothing awful.

In this project I am stuck in mid season. This one was fine and at least a little different. It techy and grungy and a little hard rocky. Not bad but not amazing.

In this project I am stuck in mid season. And this was just there in the mid range, at times interesting and mostly okay.

He is fine...nothing was super amazing and not one of my favorites of his. It was just more Neil Young and I have had enough

It wasn't bad, but it boarders on pretentious. It was just kind of there, good at times but nothing really drug me in and made me want to learn more about them.

It was pretty but nothing really grabbed on. I listened while I water flowers and did some light yard work and it was nice to have in the background but if I never experienced this I would have been fine. My favorite songs were the One Who Got Away and Headstart for Happiness and those almost felt like a totally different band/album. So it was kind of strange

I don't hate ABBA, I actually really enjoy their disco happy pop era stuff. This was them entering the 80's and at first it almost felt like an album full of lullabies, then they sort of entered back into their pop disco roots for Under Attack, but everything in the middle was just meh and blah. After a while the sickly sweetness of her voice just really drug on me and made me annoyed so not my jam. But I don't want to hate on it and give it too low because I feel like people really drag them, it was not unlistenable, just not something I would go to again.

He is not fast but he has a great cadence and rhythm. There is no doubt he is super talented and really made some great music. But man its misogynistic beyond belief (Doggy Dog World) and homophobic, so I can't fully be on its side...but he is really talented and Gin and Juice and What's My Name are just so classic. This album is so cringy but at the same time so easy to dance along with. Another review said it great..."It’s both a 5 and a 1 at the same time so I’ll put a 3 and be done with it."

Its sooooooo 80's. They might have started the push back on toxic masculinity with this 80's emo music. The drama all over this album is just a lot to me, really almost too much.

Never has an album been so appropriately named. It is exactly what it says it is and the album was as uninspired and uncreative as the name.

I thought I knew them, but then halfway through though no maybe they just sound like someone I know and then the hit came on and I was like oh yeah....So it was fine
