I could have watched Tombstone in the time it took me to listen to this

I was a little hesitant when I saw yet ANOTHER radiohead album but then I heard it and I was like nahhhhhhhhhh these guys can stay

So much beauty in one album. Our introduction to Coldplay, 'Don't Panic', is a very strong start for their career, and 'Shiver' takes it one step further. 'Spies' lost me a little, but my interest was piqued with 'Sparks', one of the saddest and most beautiful songs I have ever heard. I honestly felt like crying listening to it. 'Yellow' is, of course, Coldplay's crowning achievement in their career, and it elevates this album to another level. From there, the songs started to blend together and sound the same, but the first half was so strong that it's redeeming.

You'd think an album revolved around a sex position would be better

Respect the classics, man.

Every song got continually more boring. Like why keep going for an hour we get it.

The concept is pretty cool but his voice is honestly kind of annoying. The lyrics are very surrealist and set up a whimsical adventure, but the resulting sound does not really please my ears.

Imagine the disappointment on my face when I learned this had no relation to the Top Gun spoof sequel with Charlie Sheen

I shoulda known this was going downhill when the first song was about a cow

I'll give this a better rating when I can figure out what the fuck is happening on the cover

I can see how this guy got to make music for Frank Sinatra. I've always been a firm believer all my life that jazz sucks, but this album might be convincing me that I'm wrong. Shit. I hate it when I'm wrong.

When I die im donating my eyes to Stevie Wonder 🙏

Honestly this delivers. It never tries to be anything more than it is, and it provides a decent amount of entertainment value. I like the raw sound, which in its own way is a little innovative and unique from the mainstream music at the time.

Excellent voice. You can tell from the audience's reactions that he had a magical presence on stage. The King of the Blues prevails.

This was actually pretty funny. It's rare to find a sense of humor in music like this, so I really appreciate it when someone is able to blend good tunes with witty lyrics. Poetry like no other.

Hot for Teacher is a great fucking song and every one of you here knows it

Okay not my thing but at least I could stand it. The production was kind of fun and nothing really irritated me.

I think albums like this might be why people hate shoegaze. Nothing here was particularly good or memorable, and I honestly think I forgot every one of these songs. I could put up with it, but my mind was definitely wandering for the full 45 minutes.

Oh, God, what a voice...
It's hard to find such soulful and powerful music from artists this young. I was truly in awe of the sheer beauty of half of these songs, such as 'Mojo Pin', 'Last Goodbye', and 'Lover, You Should've Come Over'. Of course, the defining act of this album is his rendition of 'Hallelujah', which could easily bring a tear to anyone's eyes. It's a shame we lost him so young.

The influence of this album cannot be overstated. The song titled 'God' received a shout-out from the title character of the 1986 film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off".
