Excellent album. I'm not sure at all what was being said, but the songs were all so fun it didn't matter.

Rated 4/10
Good background noise to work to. Great album art though
Rated 10/10
A very underproduced album, but the lyrics were great. Pretty different from the other albums on this list.
Favorite Songs: Things Behind the Sun, From The Morning
Rated 8/10
Not quite a 5 star, but a good album. If I felt a little more melancholy, I'm sure this would hit harder.
Favorite Songs: Southern Man, Tell Me Why
Rated 10/10
Nina Simone's voice is timeless. The songs on here are excellent, and this is one of the rare albums that I truly loved listening to.
Favorite Songs: Lilac Wine, What More Can I Say?, Black is The Color of My Lover's Hair
Rated 2/10
For a second, I thought I was having a good time. I can't really say I liked most of the songs on here. It started strong, but got worse and worse as the song dragged on.
Rated 8/10
Super fun. Surprised I haven't heard more by Dusty Springfield before
Favorite Songs: Son of a Preacher Man, No Easy Way Down
Rated 4/10
I liked this more than her other album I've listened to in this project (1989). However, I still found it fairly boring throughout. I actively disliked the last one, but this album had some slightly more interesting songs.
Favorite Songs: no body, no crime
Rated 8/10
As a longtime Beach Boys hater, I liked this way more than I though I would. The lead singer's voice is still a little grating, but every song is just so catchy.
Favorite Songs: Here Today
Rated 6/10
I'm sure it's good, but didn't stand out from other indie rock
Rated 6/10
The negative reactions to this album are extremely overblown. It's far from my favorite, but Jazmine Sullivan is extremely talented and the issues she talks about are meaningful and emotional. I did find it a little short and some of the songs had production I didn't love, but she really carries it.
Favorite Songs: On It
Rated 8/10
I LOVE BIG BAND JAZZ
Favorite Songs: Congo Mulence, Frenzy, Blues a la Machito
Rated 10/10
Very simple structure, but I loved this album. Looking at these lyrics now really broke my heart.
Favorite Songs: Talkin' Bout a Revolution, Fast Cards, Mountain O' Things
Rated 6/10
Just kinda passed by. Nothing really stuck.
Rated 4/10
Really wasn't for me. Kinda just sounded like generic indie rock, with nothing making it stand out from the current music in the genre
The beginning to this album is far stronger than the end, but I loved it throughout. I'm surprised I haven't heard anything from it before
Favorite Songs: People Everyday, Tennessee, Mama's Always on Stage
Rated 8/10
The Gallagers are not my favorite, especially with Liam's voice. However, something about this album hit today. I think the overall melancholy vibe really fit with the atmosphere I'm feeling. Plus, there are no duds on this album.
Favorite Songs: Hey Now!, Champagne Supernova
Rated 2/10
Ignoring the fact that Taylor Swift is a terrible person who uses her success to stifle out other female artists, this album is so boring. It's filled with a bunch of undeniable pop hits and I like the synth influence, but I just can't get past how plain Taylor's lyrics and vocals are.
Favorite Songs: Shake it Off,
Rated 10/10
This album is kind of ridiculous, but I can't help but love it. Alanis Morissette's vocals make this album stand out
Favorite Songs: All I Really Want, Hand In My Pocket, You Learn,
Rated 8/10
Tons of fun. It's just so funky
Favorite Song: One Nation Under A Groove
