This is purely Jungle Boogie. Get down, get down! So much funk in here...
10/10
Wild Cherry - Wild Cherry
Lots of funky guitars going on here. The best part is taking their biggest (and only?) hit and just playing it backwards to create another song. AND THEN just playing it a bit slower to make ANOTHER song.
Highlights: Play That Funky Music, Get It Up, Don't Go Near the Water, I Feel Sanctified
7.5/10
Wild Mood Swings - The Cure
This is their most full on pop album, but not really normal "pop"; more like a weird mish-mash of 80s pop and 90s silliness. Lots of big horns and strings and weird endings. And, honestly, most of it comes off as a bit sterile.
Highlights: Want, Mint Car, Gone!, Numb
7/10
Wild Ones - Flo Rida
Almost every song has the same beat. It is the sort of music I would imagine Enrique and Pitbull listening to in the club while drinking and partying with young ladies. Not too young!
Highlights: Wild Ones, Run, I Cry, Good Feeling
7/10
Wild Planet - The B-52's
This is kind of like very early The Cure if they were making quirky pop music. Fred delivers his vocals the way John Mulaney delivers comedy.
Highlights: Private Idaho, Party Out of Bounds, Devil in My Car, Runnin' Around
7.5/10
Will You Marry Me? (feat. Bizniz) [Single] - Lee Seung Gi
It has been a while since we played 'random K-pop song of the day'. This is very fun, but also very touching, and then features a rapper telling his lady to marry him.
8/10
Willow Lane - Ryan Adams
Another Ryan Adams single from when he was flooding the market with music and growing more insufferable (publicly - obviously he had been that way privately forever). And these songs are easy to ignore.
Highlights: There are only two very average songs
6/10
Wish - The Cure
This is my least favourite album by The Cure, because the album features an ugly logo that only calls them "Cure". It is also one of my favourite albums by The Cure, because the music is a wonderful blend of sprawling dark epics and cheesy pop songs.
Highlights: A Letter to Elise, Doing The Unstuck, Trust, High
8/10
With The Beatles - The Beatles
Hot take: Harrison's songs on here may be the best. Sure, they were just covers, but they rock the most. The rest of the album is fairly standard covers and some decent Lennon/McCartney numbers.
Highlights: Roll Over Beethoven, Don't Bother Me, It Won't Be Long, You Really Got a Hold On Me
7/10
Wither Blister Burn & Peel - Stabbing Westward
Oh my! I had actually forgotten about this album and just how much it stomps! A bit less dark and brooding than Darkest Days, while a bit heavier and industrial and angrier. Christopher Hall's vocals are just massive.
Highlights: Shame, Don't Believe, So Wrong, Falls Apart
7.5/10
The Wizard of Oz - Meco
I guess it is about time I had Meco improve a classic soundtrack again. This one is still super disco, but also somewhat hilariously silly - mostly because of the Munchkins singing to disco beats.
Highlights: Ding-Dong The Witch is Dead, Over the Rainbow, We're Off to See The Wizard
6.5/10
Wolves - NoisyCell
Massive dance rock good times? All rather epic and massive and a good time - I am not sure if I have actually listened to this album before and I should listen to it more!
Highlights: M.R.W., Wolves, Letter, 虹霓
7.5/10
Wonderwall Music - George Harrison
The first solo Beatle album is an instrumental piece, with various influences like traditional Indian music and honky tonk and old American Western? There are a couple of tracks that do very much sound like George Harrison, as well. Pretty chill.
Highlights: Party Seacombe, Ski-ing, Drilling a Home, Wonderwall to Be Here
6/10
Woodface - Crowded House
Some times I think I expected more from a Finn brothers collaboration, but it gave us a few outstanding songs on here amongst the very mediocre everything else, so I guess it was worth it?
Highlights: Weather With You, Chocolate Cake, Four Seasons in One Day, How Will You Go
7/10
Word Gets Around - Stereophonics
I understand why I have the song Traffic - I used to do this one live and it is a darn great song. But why I do not have the rest of the album is wild mystery to me and I am adding it to the list of albums to sort out after this.
8/10
