"This is definitely one of Bowie's best work, brilliant album. Every single song is great, really strong. After this album Bowie's singing style change forever, he learned how to use this deeper voice and this high falsetto (in a soulful way). Should be higher rated, up there in the top 5, at leas..."

"This sounds like I'm working at a sweet quaint farm. I wake up to the birds chiming and the rooster cockle-doodling, and I skip along a vast field of daisies (daisies again, why does female folk remind me of daisies all the time?), and I'm happy as can be. I bask in the sun and Vashti and I decid..." [+] Reply

"The most important thing to realize going into listening to this album the first couple of times is that Syd Barrett really *was* a talented songwriter, and that even without his total mental breakdown he still would have amassed a pretty decently sized following. There are quite a few melodies a..." [+] Reply

"One of those albums thats nostalgic to a fault for me. Hysteric is my wedding song. Is it a 100? Maybe not, but for me it is. Every song sparks a magic in me that is undeniable. Listen to the extended version, so much beautiful music. Thank you YYY for letting this record exist." Reply

"Bowie dips into heavy rock. I love this album. Width of a Circle blows me away every time. All the Madmen and After All give us a little glimpse into Bowie’s mindset. With mental illness sadly stalking his family history. A lot of credit goes to Mick Ronson and Tony Visconti who arranged and prod..." [+] Reply

"Despising this Album at first, it quickly grew on me. Now its one of my absolute favorites, from the trippy feel of Dramamine to Space Travel is Boring. It established Modest Mouse as a unique alternative band." Reply

"While the album as a whole may not be musically that dark, there is a haunting and gloomy aura hovering over the album, especially on tracks such as I'm Going Slightly Mad, Bijou and The Show Must Go On. Mercury was a dying man, but you genuinely cannot tell just by listening to the sheer power i..." [+] Reply
