Poor Harmonium.

I'm just not feeling it. It isn't as good as Be not Nobody--by far one of the greatest albums ever. Although I love she floats,white houses, and who's to say, it's not like a Sarah Mclachlan album where you have to listen to Time over and over again until you know percicly how she says that certain lyric. It's unfortunate. I've dedicated much time ( Read more... )

You're not alone Shelly. That's exactly how I feel... as well as a few other friends of mine. Sure there are a few cool tunes, and she's talented and all... but to be honest I've only played the album twice its entirety since it started circulating. I just don't feel any of the songs are captivating the way "A Thousand Miles" was.

The CD went on sale yesterday and I didn't even rush out to buy it or anything (I still haven't bought it yet). I could even go see her in Seattle if I really wanted to but I just don't feel compelled to go through the trouble or expense... even though I've never seen her live and wanted to during the heyday of Be Not Nobody. I'll more than likely buy it sometime this week because it happens to be on sale and I do want to see the enhanced features... but that's the only reason why.

That's not to say I don't like her anymore or anything... I still think she's an awesome artist with a lot of talent. It's just the new album I'm not into the way I was with Be Not Nobody.

I have to disagree. It's true BnN is probably the most powerful album of hers, & that I own, I still listen to it quite a bit, but Harmonium is good to. She put a lot of work into it. This album still inspires me, I haven't stopped listening to it since I got it on Tuesday. It sucks you guys aren't feeling it, but oh well she can't win everybody.

And Daniel, I thought you were gonna see her? that's a shame you aren't, cuz I've been hearing the best reviews, & I heard half of the concert myself, & was freaking out even if it was only over the phone, lol. Dangit I can't wait till I see her next Tuesday, haha.
