I actually really dug how low-key this album way. Felt lighthearted while being emotional and quiet.

Favorite Songs: San Francisco Bay

I love Jesus Walks, but Kanye doesn't get any money from me. Won't even give this a listen

Very standard country. Don't love it, don't hate it

Kings of Leon does have some great songs, but none of them are on this album. Just listen to Only By the Night instead and save yourself.

Funky, fun, fresh

Very 80's, but I won't pretend like I don't love it. So many iconic songs on here that I've heard over and over but will never tire of.

Favorite Songs: Shout, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, Head Over Heels

Kinda whatever. Just not for me

Bob Dylan has moments of greatness when I think I'm getting into it, then he always does something to ruin it. I just cannot stand his music

Favorite Songs: Visions of Johanna

Loved the intro to School with the Harmonica but was a little more disappointed when the vocals started.

Favorite Songs: Rudy, Dreamer

This was absolutely what I needed today. I don't remember rating this album as anything special on my previous listen through of Steely Dan, but it really hit for me this time. Yacht Rock is great

Favorite Songs: Rikki Don't Lose that Number, With a Gun

Blues Rock just isn't my thing. I'll probably relisten to this at a later date, but it just didn't do anything for me

I don't know if I just listened to this on a bad day, but I found myself checking how long the album would be only two songs in. I wish I liked how experimental and strange it was, but there's something about it that throws me off.

Get Out of My house is the perfect summary of how I feel about most songs on this album. I really like the vocal chant at the end, but there is so much other stuff in there (the donkey noises, the shouting) that push me away.

I could see myself really liking it on another day but just wasn't in the mood for rock-pop today.

I can appreciate how different this album is, but I just personally don't find it very enjoyable.

This was pretty good. Don't know how much it will stick with me, but I really enjoyed it while listening to it.

Edit: I have come back to this fairly regularly. I was incorrect. It's great

Favorite Songs: Never Let Me Down Again, Little 15, I Want You Now

The most vanilla music imaginable

Did not expect to love that album as much as I did. So different from everything else on this list. Id love to hear more like it

Favorite Songs: Joan of Arc, Souvenir

Still not my favorite Cohen album, but a very good one. The production is really simple, which makes you focus more on his lyrics.

Favorite Songs: The Partisan, Tonight Will Be Fine

I went from feeling incredibly neutral on this album to praying for it to end by the time I got to Fun House. Someone send help please

Meh. I really like some of PJ Harvey's other stuff, but this is very forgettable.
