All the way* - Jeffrey Osborne

There are some albums where you can just pop it into the player and listen to every one of the tracks in it - and love it all! I'm not talking about 'Best of...' albums or compilations where all the good songs are put together. I'm also not referring to Musicals or movie soundtracks.

Most of the time, i buy CDs just for one song - i'd hear it and fall in love with it and then rush to get the album which features that song. Then i'd be disappointed as the song which i loved happens to be the only nice song in that album!!!! The album which comes to mind at this point of time to illustrate what i'm saying is the Hoobastank album i bought cuz i loved the song The Reason. That - in my own opinion - was the only nice song on the whole album.

There are also albums where there are a few nice songs - and either i'd programme it to just play the nice ones or i'd just put up with the not so nice ones till the nice ones come on.

Then there are those which i like all the songs on them. Not bad. This usually takes place over time when after listening to some songs over and over again, i dun just 'put up with it' but it grows on me. Others are albums where i just like all the songs - and this applies to all of Jewel's albums.

But there are only a few albums where i loved every single track on it! I can play it as it is, i can put it on shuffle, it doesn't matter cuz every song which comes on will be great! I can just listen to the album from the start all the way to the end, loving every song!

I was just thinking about this when i put in one such album the other morning - and i started thinking of other albums like that. I decided to list them down in my other blog and u can view the list here.

But as a teaser, lemme just put the photos of the artists of those albums.



Recognise all of them? Care to venture a guess which of their albums i simply love?

*This song was featured on the soundtrack of the movie Dying Young
