you know what is absolutely lovely? listening to sarah mclachlan's intro to "hold on," from "afterglow live."

i've been thinking about live albums vs. studio albums, as barbed_whispers put the bug in my ear. about how much i enjoy live albums, about how much i prefer listening to them than studio albums ( Read more... )

i second your strange love of live albums. even live songs (that i didn't even know were live) sound better in my opinion.

konstantine- need i say more?

indeed!

man, konstantine. that song is so lovely live. i don't think i could handle it if it were studio-ed.

did you by any chance get the gambler ep? because it can only be bought on itunes and i can't pay money for music that might not even work on my computer, so if you have it and can send it to me, i can futz with converting the files. if not, no big. i'm sure i'll find it eventually.

(and does this mean you have haughty melodic? actually, just tell me what you have so i know what to send. kthx.)

i have "haughty melodic," and "skittish/rockity roll." and i will be downloading anything else that he has on itunes on thursday. because already, those albums have jumped to the top of my ipod.

(yeah. let's just say that i completely understand what you went through.)

Seeing RENT as a cassette tape is weird.

i actually really like sarah mclachlan's live album "mirrorball," even though i *don't* usually like live albums.

"afterglow: live" is very different from "mirrorball," although "mirrorball" was my first ever live album and will always, always, always be one of my favorites. ::snugnudges::
