It's a really great album, a solid 4. Now I just need to catch up on Zeitgeist, which everyone here seems to totally despise.
Lucio Dalla Come è profondo il mare (Legacy Edition)

Great review, Joe. Regarding the sense of remastering, when it comes to improving sound quality and possibly bringing out things that were somehow "hidden" in the original recording, I think it absolutely makes sense.
U2 Songs Of Experience

Of course, the first ten lines of this review won't help improve the opinion that those who can't stand U2 have (basically painting a group solely interested in balancing their bank accounts). As far as I'm concerned, "Achtung Baby" alone would be enough to earn them respect. Then there are also "The Joshua Tree" and "The Unforgettable Fire." For the rest, I couldn't care less, he has never inspired me with sympathy or trust, but with music, well, that obviously has nothing to do with it.

It would have been a nice review and analysis if you hadn’t written the plot of the movie Soto; personally, I believe it’s the worst way to review a film (worse than track-by-track for albums), so 3. I’ve never even heard of the movie.

Nice review and interesting proposal
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Who Built The Moon? (Japanese Edition)
Voto:
It seemed good to me, for now at least a 3 fits perfectly. It also feels quite different in its sounds and overall atmosphere compared to his usual (I mean Oasis because I'm not familiar with his other albums), and I think this is the album's strength, considering that in the past he has never really made any significant changes in direction.
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Who Built The Moon? (Japanese Edition)
Voto:
Of the Oasis, the only album I really feel connected to, not just for sentimental reasons (tracks like "Champagne Supernova," "Don't Look Back in Anger," "Some Might Say" remain stunning) is, simply put, the second one (I also like Be Here Now and The Masterplan, but their debut never did anything for me): I was in high school at the time of the release of (What's the Story) Morning Glory and The Great Escape, and from the start, my schoolmate and I couldn't understand what the heck those two bands had to do with each other to create the famous rivalry around them. I don't recall any discussions on the subject (I do remember we debated the eponymous Blur album when it came out, about which was better between that and the previous one, both with cassette tapes between the school desks; he preferred The Great Escape, but I was immediately blown away by that shift). I’ve never listened to anything by Noel Gallagher as a solo artist, which piques my curiosity, and I will definitely check it out.
Gigi D'Alessio Mi Faccio In 4

The level of this Artist's Music is so high that a 5 would be too little, let alone a 4. A 3 would then be an average score, an insult, and a 2 is horrible. That leaves a 1.

"these ones are all bad, I don't like them and they sing evil" as @[Erzacchiu] would say. Stratospheric review.
