Sterne für die US #1-Hits der Eighties

MozzaZu hoch?

Teilweise zu hoch, teilweise zu niedrig. Aber Abstände von * zu * * * * 1/2 sind für mich nicht nachvollziehbar. Aber das ist ja oft so.

MozzaJa. Bin gerade bei „Inside out“. Es fehlt noch „Take me home“, der beste Song des Albums.

Inside out ist live ganz hervorragend.

@ zappa

„Dirty Diana“ nur * ??

Die Kombination aus Songs, Sternen und Hitze….

„Bad“ ist ein sehr gutes Album, mit einigen Killer-Tracks.

@ zappa

Wusste gar nicht, dass du es mit Jacko nicht so hast.

Voyager“Africa“ ist wunderbar. Habe nie eine altere Schulkameradin verstanden, die bei dem Song immer lachen musste. Ob man den gut findet oder nicht, aber was ist an dem Song komisch? Hat sie da was durchschaut, was ich nicht sehe/höre…?

Keine Ahnung. Aber so ähnlich gehts mir mit „Rosanna“. Diesen Song mag ich sehr, wobei ich das aber natürlich niemals öffentlich zugeben würde

@zappa1: Nur * für „Mickey“? Das ist doch Bubblegum-Pop vom Feinsten!

sparchBad war für mich nach Thriller vor allem eine große Enttäuschung. Außer Leave Me Alone höre ich da keine großen Tracks.

„Smooth Criminal“ ist ein Klassiker!
