I’m not sure if this is an unpopular opinion, per se, but I find a lot of comfort in songs by The Vogues.

The entire career of The Cars is a variation of this one song by Roxy Music:

Interesting. I only know The Cars' big 1980s feminist anthem, Drive, which owes nothing to this song. BUT I've been forever meaning to listen to their earlier stuff which I heard was in a more postpunk vein.

That's such a good observation.

Speaking of unpopular opinions, Eno said his favorite RM album was the one they did after his departure, Stranded. Which is a fantastic album, but not as epoch-making as FYP.

I give Eno credit for his honesty. He didn't say "yeah, that band really sucked after I left", like a lot of musicians would.

He's above that kind of pettiness, for sure. Though it helps that it also just wasn't the case!

I've said it before but I'll say it again. This album is 1 LP's worth of great songs surrounded by 2 LP's worth of mediocre and forgettable filler...


Spoiler for The LP in question:
