I was excited for electronic, but this was too "whimsical" for me. 2*

Rated 8/10
Why was I waiting for the opening notes of the first song to turn into "eyes wide open" by Creed?
Where dreams go to die is very "across the universe".
I didn't know this artist or album and quite enjoyed it, 4*
Yes another punk album. It's ok, nice harmonies in some songs. Enjoyed some more than I expected (autonomy, i don't mind). 3*
Rated 6/10
7/12 top 100 hits? Wild ratio. This is nice, but clearly a function of the times, like Sinatra's works, 3*
Rated 6/10
I groaned when I saw it was another 60s album, but this was enjoyable. 3*
Highlights: lonesome suzie
Rated 4/10
Of all the albums on this project that are only findable in YouTube, this is the most tolerable one I've heard so far. That said, it's nice, but nothing new.
Rated 6/10
This was alright, very 60s vibe but not the same old.
Highlight: proud Mary
Rated 4/10
Don’t know why he’s on here so much, it’s bland as fuck, 2*
Rated 4/10
The guitar in like a rolling stone feels like a very refreshing opener for a 60s album. The rest is this talky-waily kind of singing that I just don't enjoy. I wanted to like Dylan, but I just don't like his stuff beyond the twoish greatest hits I know. 2*
Dude looks fucking cool on the cover though.
Highlights: like a rolling stone
More 60s psychedelic crap. Couldn't wait for the back half to end, just felt like people fucking around in a studio.
The vocals made me think of ACDC, but not in an enjoyable way. I respect Janis, but not got me. Enjoyed the instrumentals more than the vocals. 2*.
That's a racist album cover.
Highlights: piece of my heart
Rated 6/10
Wow Music took me straight back to that era. I didn't know most of this album, but it encapsulates that period of music really well. 3*
Highlights: music and don't tell me (because nostalgia)
Rated 4/10
Was ready to dismiss this as I don't like country, but Steamroller had some nice blues/brass.
Rated 4/10
I'm not gonna like this, am I?
Ohhh 21st century schizoid man is sampled by the Kanye album I really like!
Actually didn't hate it as much as I thought I would, 2*
Rated 2/10
Take Cabaret but make it oppressing as fuck. 1*
Sometimes you wish you could time travel to see what life was like (in this case to 1920s Germany), but this wasn't it. Did I need to listen to it before dying? No, but it is definitely unique.
Rated 2/10
The wailing in the first track is just the worst. I'll take Yoko over this. When the interview started in Apple Music I actually thought it was part of the album.
Is this just more English crap? 1*
Rated 4/10
I'm not listening to the demo CD.
By the third track, I'm just UGHHHH with this drivel. Shit is endless. I skipped all the different versions of Suicide. I always try to listen to the album end to end, but 3 versions of the same shitty loopy song is just too much for my brain, which is wild because a lot of reviewers liked that song the most. 2*
Rated 10/10
Oh hell yes, Alanis goes hard. She sounds so raw, a hoarseness that I never noticed before. I love it. Easy 5*
Highlights: ironic, hand in my pocket, you oughta know, all i really want, right through you, forgiven (chills during the chorus), you learn, head over feet
Ok, I think I just don't like the soft fillers (mary jane, perfect, wake up), but otherwise enjoyed the whole thing.
Rated 4/10
Posting here because I hit submit on the last Dr Dre review too soon, but what is it with hip hop albums and sex in between tracks? Like what does it add to the album? 'How gangsta, this dude fucks' -- maybe it was a function of the 90s.
Ok, back to this album: someone else described it as budget Pink Floyd, and that's all I can think of now.
Rated 6/10
I'm a bad judge of hip hop. This was enjoyable, cool to hear early Snoop. 3*
