SPARKS

There is a thread already asking for marks out of 100 for tracks from HYL...but is anyone collating them...until they do here is a little poll to be going on with.(PS..I've limited it to a week...just to stop moaning minnies saying .."Oh*add own choice here* was the best track....but I didn't vote because*add own excuse here*")..So if you don't vote...no-one to blame but yourself!!!

Sorry...
Love them all, but TVNF, I find, is absolutely haunting. That old piano sound... reminiscent of post-war Paris, or something. IMHO! Melancholy! Which Sparks are not normally renowned for....

The whole of this album just blows me away. Utter music genius like I have never heard before.

I have to say that on initial listen TVNF was the stand-out track...and still stays that way...yet I tend to repeat others more than that....savouring perhaps?...but it remains as Loz said "Haunting"...a description I wholeheartedly agree with.I think it ranks with such tracks as The Angels and Drawn By Picasso...for that "tingle" effect!

Dick Around is edging tops just now but like you say it changes on a daily basis.

I do like Theres No Such Thing As Aliens very much too. It's these two tracks that seem to be on repeat play at the moment

Tough one to vote on.. I think the Hurt and Heal poll will give a better indication with multiple votes but for now "The Organ" has it on my
Card due to its Grandeur and Great Gothic Organ Playing...
I Dont no about anyone else but recently Ive Been Playing HYL starting
at TK 2 ... I find "Dick Around" best played as a Single Listen its so
intense.. You no its a great Album when you can just randomly click on a Track and Love any of them .. HYL does this for me ..

I voted for Metaphor, which I think will stay my favourite track.

First I liked (Baby, Baby) Can I invade your country, the i changed my mind to Metaphor, it really is a great song. I like the middle part when the music get a little heavier, it is just Awesome!!!!!

Anyways like all the song but those 2 are my favorites.
