I borrowed this album from the library yesterday (got home after 7:00 PM) and started to listen to/get the idea of doing a review of American Life very late last night  

It was about 1:00 AM when Nobody Knows Me was like, over  

lemme just post what i wrote last night  

 

 

 

1. American Life - 9/10

-Great opening track

-favourite lyrics:

"I tried to be a boy, 
I tried to be a girl 
I tried to be a mess, 
I tried to be the best 
I guess I did it wrong, 
That's why I wrote this song"

&

"I'd like to express my extreme point of view 
I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jew 
I'm just living out the American dream 
And I just realized that nothing Is what it seems"

-BOP

 

2. Hollywood - 10/10 (tbh)

-Cute bird chirps

-Such a BOP!

"No one's telling you how to live your life
But it's a setup until you're fed up
It's no good when you're misunderstood
But why should I care
What the world thinks of me"

-These beats  

 

6. Nothing Fails - 7/10

--These vocals in the chorus/end of 1st verse
