I almost didn’t vote. There’s no song on that album that I really dislike. Including what most people define as clunkers (more on that on the upcoming underrated thread).
That’s a hot take… but I’ll join you.
ATYCLB is the first album of theirs that has hard skippers for me.
HTDAAB itself as a whole is a hard skip. Sometimes is the only song I will ever potentially hear again.
NLOTH has two absolute “never listening again” skippers (don’t love Crazy but I can sit through it).
But SOI is an album that I could listen to in entirety if I could make it past The Miracle. I’m not saying every song is great.
I won’t argue on behalf of Volcano. But you know what? If it were on right now, I’d live. I’d live through SFS. And I think there’s a lot of enjoyable stuff on there.
I enjoy California.
I enjoy TIWYCRMN.
Iris is quite good.
RBW is interesting.
EBW has something under the bubble gum.
SLABT fucking slays.
So, except The Miracle (and it’s so easy to skip the first song), it’s an actual album for me.
No, it’s not Achtung Baby. But a nice pop album.
