nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 (edited) Jody Watley - Always and Forever I was hoping someone would send Jody - an extremely underrated artist! I'll echo that, yeah, this one is somewhat forgettable but it's not at all bad. This was a hard round when the singles from this era were definitely the highlights of the discography. 3/5 Edited August 8 by nostalgic
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Liz Phair - **** and Run Meh. I wasn't really feeling this one. Not something I'd ever seek out again intentionally and, again - there were better choices on this critically acclaimed album. 2/5
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Billy Joel - Zanzibar I'd rather be in Zanzibar right now nothing wrong with recognizing legends but accepting that not everything they made is that enjoyable. 3/5
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Sinéad O'Connor - Drink Before the War Love this, beautifully written song. RIP! 5/5
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 (edited) Bee Gees - More Than a Woman A classic I'm shocked to learn this wasn't a single as it's so universally well known. Smart choice! 4/5 Edited August 8 by nostalgic
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 (edited) Aaliyah - I'm So Into You Lovely. A good description of Aaliyah and her music in general. 3/5 Edited August 8 by nostalgic
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Anri - SHYNESS BOY One of her best songs. Just perfect. The trumpets and that sax solo. Feels like it takes you back to a time when you were young, happy, and enjoying life. 4/5
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 (edited) Stacey Q - Love or Desire Incredibly dated. He Doesn't Understand was right there! 2/5 Edited August 8 by nostalgic
nostalgic Posted August 8 Posted August 8 SWV - Give It to Me Yup, I'm moving Ironic: They also have a song called I'm So Into You from the same album. 4/5

luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 POISON GIRLFRIEND - HARDLY EVER SMILE(without you): ohhh the vibes are lovely, the intro captivated me immediately (it was a bit long in the end but still very good)
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Diana Ross - It's Your Move: it's a cutesy bop idk not much else to say in a good way
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 The Sundays - You're Not the Only One I Know: it's rather uninteresting and unappealing to me but I don't think it's bad at all
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Toni Braxton - Love Affair: it was good at the beginning but then it got pretty repetitive and boring
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 ABBA - If It Wasn't For the Nights: pretty fun!! a bit too long (as every single song from the 80s) but I really like it overall
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Slowdive - When The Sun Hits: see I know it was the 90s and I know this genre is supposed to be drowned in reverb and flangers and I love me some shoegaze but this is just a clump of noise the song itself doesn't suck but it was not enjoyable to listen
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Selena - El Chico Del Apartamento 512: my latina ass is obviously biased towards this, a childhood classic that will be getting high points from me x
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 TLC - Kick Your Game: pretty middle of the road for me, it's just fine
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Cocteau Twins - Cherry-coloured Funk: *looks at Slowdive* are you taking notes? I wish I sent this so bad honestly, I thought it was a single or something so it never really crossed my mind, incredible song
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 The Cardigans - Celia Inside: this was different and quite interesting!! I like it more than mostly everything so far :minho:
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 The Bangles - Some Dreams Come True: I will be passing love
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Sade - Like a Tattoo: this is an absolutely STUNNING song, so soothing and silky and gorgeous like everything Sade does
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Portishead - Roads: this was a lovely listen!! I loved how the production kept progressing and it kept growing, quite stunning song
luckystrike Posted August 8 Posted August 8 Paula Abdul - Rock House: you fell into the Auburn trap of sending mid 90s Pop... it was good but there's several better songs in here
