An album you loved as a teen that you still love

What album did you love as a teen, that you still love now. I don't really listen to album anymore, just the individual songs I like on Spotify. However one album I will listen to, from start to finish, in the correct order, on a regular basis is Greenday, American Idiot. There isn't one song on there I don't like. I love the flow of the album, and it reminds me of being young.

Black Celebration - Depeche Mode and The Joshua Tree - U2

I can still remember the first time I ever listened to Black Celebration and when I listen to it now I'm 16 again.

I just received the Grace dress. Omg, it’s gorgeous on. If they did other colours I’d order them all.

I can get away without a bra, it might not be great otherwise.

Lessstressedhemum · 01/03/2024 22:31

I feel that I should have mentioned the first 3 Yngwie Malmsteen albums, too. They are incredible. He completely changed metal guitar.

BarelyLiterate · 01/03/2024 22:50

Honest answers, not trying to be cool:

U2 - The Joshua Tree. This album was massively hyped before it came out, so expectations were sky high. Me & my friends queued up outside the record shop in Nottingham to buy it on the day it was released. We were just blown away by how brilliant it was. It still is.

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours. This was released when I was at primary school, my parents bought a copy & I literally grew up listening to it. I still do.

The Smiths - The Queen is dead. Their best album, and one of the most influential ever. Without this, there would have been no Britpop.
