Adding Japan - Tin Drum to the backlog.
Diana

Upside Down - Love it~ :yy::yy:

Tenderness - Don't love it.

Friend to Friend - Less disco, slow, nice. :yy:

I'm Coming Out - :pride: :yy:

Have Fun (Again) - Bit long... and that was before it faded out the first time, making me think it was over. :p:

My Old Piano - Really good. :yy::yy:

Now That You're Gone - :yy:

Give Up - Nothing special.

7/10, mostly due to the three singles. A lot of the rest felt like filler, but upbeat and easy to listen to all the same.

Yeah I think that'll be a 6/10, enjoyed the ones I knew, the rest was just a bit too easy-listening background stuff.
Joni Mitchell - Blue

All I Want - Fantastic start! :yy:

My Old Man - Nice. :yy:

Little Green - Lovely. :yy:

Carey - :yy:

Blue - Depressing, powerful. :yy:

California - Interesting, but not really for me.

This Flight Tonight - Brilliant. :yy::yy:

River - Epic. :yy:

A Case of You - Okay, but it didn't wow me like the earlier tracks.

The Last Time I Saw Richard - Not mad about this one either.

8/10
Blue
I actually didn't wait long at all to listen to this, just never got around to posting. Didn't really know anything about the album or artist when I selected it, but wow what a voice.
Favourites were Blue, California and River. 8.5/10
Violator
World In My Eyes - good start!

Sweetest Perfection - also pretty good

Personal Jesus - didn't expect to recognise this! it good, I like the riff.

Halo - them strings :drool:

Waiting For The Night - welcome change of pace, but a bit boring

Enjoy the Silence - knew this one, I like

Policy of Truth - knew this one too. Similar to the rest, but enjoying it enough that I don't mind.

Blue Dress - that was kind of different... then it became so different I thought it had gone to the next track.

Clean - yep, this one's good too

to be honest I don't know why it took me this long to listen to an album by them. That's a 9/10
Violator

World in My Eyes - Synth pop awesomeness. :yy:

Sweetest Perfection - Solid. :yy:

Personal Jesus - I'd only heard Marilyn Manson's cover previously; this is better. :yy:

Halo - Brilliant. :yy:

Waiting for the Night - I liked the slower, dreamlike feel of this one. :yy:

Enjoy the Silence - Best so far. :yy::yy:

Policy of Truth - Decent. :yy:

Blue Dress - Different; didn't like it so much.

Clean - Strong finish. :yy:

9/10 from me as well.
Album #260

Kraftwerk - Computer World



Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/7BaZFI0ytbAgf65WPig7GB


'Tangerine Dream - Phaedra' added to the backlog.
Kraftwerk

Computer World - Similar sound to what I remember from The Man-Machine; not a bad thing. :yy::yy:

Pocket Calculator - Cute. :p: :yy:

Numbers - The title didn't lie! :yy:

Computer World 2 - Instrumentals from the first track, with a hint of Numbers. It was alright.

Computer Love - I recognise that melody! :zomg: Closest we've gotten to Coldplay in this thread, so far. :p: I love this original. :yy::yy:

Home Computer - Liked the earlier parts, but not so much the latter half.

It's More Fun to Compute - Solid. :yy:

7/10, little bit repetitive for my tastes, but very pleasant.
Computer World
Didn't like it as much as The Man-Machine, although this time I was focusing on it less. Didn't really have any standout tracks for me.
I'd give it 5/10, which is the same as I gave Man-Machine, although I think I did that album dirty.

Odd, I definitely remember adding it. Must have not saved or something. :colondollar: Will add both now!
The Who - The Who Sell Out

Armenia City in the Sky - Alright.

Heinz Baked Beans - Heinz Meanz Beanz.

Mary-Anne with the Shaky Hand - I assume the lyrics aren't as innocent as they may appear. :p:

Odorono - :rofl: :yy:

Tattoo - Also very fun. :yy:

Our Love Was - Fine, but didn't leave much of an impression, especially following the last two.

I Can See for Miles - Solid. :yy:

Can't Reach You - Good. :yy:

Medac - Not as amusing as the previous fake ads, IMO.

Relax - Relaxing indeed. :yy:

Silas Stingy - :yy: I vaguely remember hearing this before somewhere. :hmmmm2:

Sunrise - Lovely instrumentals. :yy:

Rael (1 & 2) - Very nice. :yy:

8/10 again. Love their creativity, but at times it's just a bit too weird even for me. :colondollar:
