Imma get dragged for what I gave Madonna XD

Death. Confessions, a 4? Come on now. There's no excuse. My rates:

LOVE. ANGEL. MUSIC. BABY.: 8.75
BREAKAWAY: 7.79
THE EMANCIPATION OF MIMI: 7.43
CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR: 9.125

I didn't want to be too harsh. To be honest, I didn't enjoy TEOM very much but it'd have been disrespectful to tank her average when in fact it wasn't really a bad album. I'm just not the biggest R&B fan. I mean, giving an objectively good album an average of 4 is grossly misguided.

I seriously thought I liked the album more than I really did. I guess I liked SOME of the songs, but didn't like the others (especially Isaac).

I'm not into Madonna or Euro-dance music anyway, but I agree, a 4 is a bit too low. Oh well..

Of course. Breakaway has a few memorable hits. I'm not discrediting Confessions because I do like the album which I showed in my rates. But y'all are writing off Breakaway far too quickly, it was a huge album.

SUBG & BOY, and how memorable they are is debatable.
I don't, look at my rates and look at my Last.fm profile. In fact Kelly is one of my "faves".
But Breakaways has NO chance at all with Confessions and its perfection & epicness.

[Sparky Polastri]

My averages
Mariah-8
Kelly-5.41
Gwen-5.08
Madonna-7

3 songs really dragged down LAMB's rating.

ILNY is epic.

Push better be the first COADF song to leave, and Jump the first COADF single.

ILNY was my lowest rated on Confessions. A 6. Probably should've gone lower, but I liked the production. I just cannot get behind the lyrics, no matter the camp value.

I don't get the hate for Isaac though. It is among Confessions' best.

Was it because of the lyrics?
Cause that beat is INSANE. The breakdown, just heavenly done, can't deal with that amount of perfection.

It was not meant to be a serious song, so we shouldn't be judging it like that.

[Icing]

I have three songs left on Breakaway. Pray for me.

[Sparky Polastri]

I gave ILNY a 4.

It really drags on toward the end. The DioGuardi tracks in particular are just disastrous. Kelly doesn't sound like she's feeling them and the lyrics aren't particularly strong or affecting. I liked most of the album through track eight and then it just trailed off miserably.

I hope everyone gave Harajuku Girls the 0 it deserves.

I think I gave it an 9 or 8.....
I just hope everyone trashes all the Kelly/Mariah ballads... they're really awful.

Hear Me? Uh, what kind of clamor?

[Rolland]

This should start right now. I'm ready for Madonna to take this.


My Top 10:
01. Get Together.
02. Jump.
03. Cool.
04. Future Lovers.
05. The Real Thing (This is biased as hell)
06. Since U Been Gone
07. Isaac.
08. Hung Up.
09. Forbidden Love.
10. I Love New York.

For those wondering WBT is #11 (). I only gave five 10s.

Because Of You was the only 10 I gave Kelly

IHMFLY is a hideous song, I ALWAYS skip it. But #11 (Hear Me) is a MASTERPIECE. Love it.
