Moods


Artist: Neil Diamond 

Album: Moods

Year Released: 1972






Track-By-Track

Song Sung Blue

This one is perfect for those Monday blues. “Me and you are subject to the blues now and then”. Truth. “But when you take the blues and make a song, you sing em out again.” Blues happen, but they don’t need to hang around.


Porcupine Pie

This one makes exactly zero sense, and that’s why it’s fun. Forget it’s Monday with this nonsensical track. Kids from 1-99 will love this one.


High Rolling Man

Rock ‘n roll. High-energy, and dance-ready. Perfect for chasing away those cases of the Mondays.


Canta Libre

Very chill. Great for that midday meditation. It does, eventually, go into English. In case you were worried.


Captain Sunshine

Slower tune, but still good for head-bobbing. 


Play Me

Just listen. Great song.


Gitchy Goomy

Another fun one that’s partially nonsense, but wholly upbeat. It’s a happy song.


Walk On Water

A bit different, but good, nonetheless. It’s one of those “love it or hate it” songs. Even if you’re not fond of the beginning, it hypes up, quite a bit.


Theme— Instrumental

Exactly what the title says it is. Nice tune.


Prelude In E Major

30-second prelude to the final track. Still worth a listen.


Morningside

“Morningside, the old man dies” is not the best way to start a song, in my opinion. Especially followed up with “no one cried”. A perfect cry song. If you’re not needing a cry, I suggest you stay far, far away from this one. An incredible song, but it doesn’t make one feel happy.


Recommended?

Yes, yes, and more YES! Neil is much more than “Sweet Caroline *bum bum bum*” Definitely one to put on your list.
