"Definitely Madonna's greatest album of the 2000's - very soulful, deep, charming.....'Sorry' is my favorite song here but I think 'Push' should've been released as a single. This one differs from other tracks on this album and could have been a hit" Reply

"I have approached few albums in my lifetime with as much anticipation as I did this one when it was first released in 1995. At the time I was fully convinced that Jay Farrar was the real talent behind Uncle Tupelo, so when they broke up it was Farrar's work, rather than Jeff Tweedy's, that I most..." [+] Reply

"This is easily one of the most underrated albums ever. Few of anyone ever realizes just how incredible this album is. It's rich with great guitar melodies, strong songwriting, Ben Gibbard's cryptic, yet addictive lyrics, and the kind of focus on concept that hasn't really been seen since, even if..." [+] Reply

"The album starts off very strong but then starts to fade in the middle and nearer the end. This is mainly due to the songs not being as infectious and it gets a little less experimental as well. This excludes the closing track which is simply phenomenal. The opening of the album starts with diver..." [+] Reply
"This album is freakin amazing. It alternates between Albert Kings signature less is more guitar style with upbeat funky blues and very soulful stuff. Albert King is a genius." Reply

"Right as everyone wrote them off as dead after Ricky Wilson's death and the subsequent failure of the underrated "Bouncing Off The Satellites", they came back bigger than ever. I am partial to the earlier records and admit that "Love Shack" isn't one of my fave B-52's songs but as a whole a very ..." [+] Reply

The sonic disorder is soothing, the album is the embodiment of the perfectly designed roller coaster with that steep climb to the first highest peak followed by an amazing ride with a couple of twists, turns,..."

"A album overlooked by the prejudice that James are a one hit wonder whose only good song is "Laid". This album totally blew me away after I lifted my own prejudice against it." Reply
