Another Prince album that the press built up as a "return to form" that turned out to be very weak.
Bruce Springsteen - Magic
I can barely name you any of the songs on it....totally forgettable.
Madonna - American Life
I actually like the album but I can understand why alot of people dont and consider it Madge's worst. Very down beat, hardly any dance tracks, etc
I LOOOOOOVE Magic!
You're a real fucker. You act like you own this place--ParanoidAndroid <-- about as witty as this princess gets! I hope everyone pays more attention to Sags posts--sweething
Weezer - Raditude - Okay, I like this one overall. But some of the lyrics left me thinking 'I can't believe this guy has a degree in english from Harvard'!
is that truly necessary in order to write a "deep/relevant" lyric??
It's true that being not everything touched by someone who went to an 'elite' university is going to turn to gold. But I still expect better than lines like these (from the song 'In The Mall')
Bells are ringing In the mall, I was in the mall. Now we're singing In the mall, I was in the mall. I was in the mall! I was in the mall!
It's been too long since you've had your ass kicked properly:
I guess I'd better chime in with my turdy albums from otherwise great artists:
Worst album by Prince
Tie: Chaos and Disorder, New Power Soul
Worst album by other artists:
Mariah Carey - Charmbracelet. E=MC2
Madonna - American Life
Rolling Stones - Dirty Work, Voodoo Lounge
Elton John - Leather Jackets
Bob Dylan - Down In The Groove
R Kelly - Double Up
R.E.M. - Up
U2 - No Line On The Horizon (not really a shitty album; just underwhelming)
Jay-Z - Kingdom Come
Stevie Wonder - Conversation Peace
I used to feel that way until I listened to the album last year(after many years of collecting dust) and it has many positive moments(beside its saving grace aka Subtle Invitation). Like Irresistible(Which I prefer the rap-less version over the album version) and her collaboration with James Poyser and 'em in Lullaby.
Listen again? YOU listen again. I said his albums in the mid 00's. Thugs Revenge, Speaking In Tounges, ect. Have you ever listened to those albums? He USED to be a genius. Don't get me wrong, I'll always be a big fan, but he kinda fell off. He still has it in him to make a great song, but most of the time he just half-asses it. The albums he had through about 2002/2003-2007 weren't very good. And through most of this, Bizzy was really weird and you can totally tell it effected his music.
Do you know this song? It's pretty infamous as being a really low point for Bizzy musically.

I thought Chinese Democracy was pretty good, but I couldn't believe it took so long to put that album out.
You'd think he was working on Don Giovanni.

Crossroads 2010 wasn't that great, it only had a few songs I like. But that, as well as the rest of his music LATELY is a lot better than his music from 6-7 years ago.
I thought Zeigeist was really good actually...it got me into the Pumpkins big time!! I heard them to "United States" at the Live Earth USA concert and the track blew me away. Thought there was a couple of really good radio friendly tracks on there to.....having said that it was the first Pumpkins album I brought. Have had real fun discovering all their others since.

American Life is not her worst.
I like all her albums, so its hard for me to comment....its probably the one I listen to the least, and I know it was panned when it came out. What would you put at the bottom of the Madonna pile??
