Music / Tommy
Quick review of Tommy This album is bad in all the ways a rock opera can be bad. It's way too long, doesn't do anything interesting with how long it is, and the music itself is way too samey sounding for a lot of the songs. The only good thing to come of this album was the film adaptation's scene for Pinball Wizard, which is a great scene to be fair. Guess this tone ... |

Mary Sue Power, Make Up! OK, I'm trying to watch this with a straight face, I really am. But watching episode 22 just made me feel suddenly "Why am I watching THIS again?" I do acknowledge this is basically a faithful adaptation of the source material, but let's face it: the source material is not perfect. In fact, it is quite badly written. Let's start with my most dislik... |
