so people who love this one don't love Medusa? Medusa gives me feelings

Medusa has No More I Love You's, and I think her take on Waiting in Vain is quite genuinely gorgeous, but her Train in Vain is an unforgivable atrocity.

Her song in Dracula was the second or third best thing about that movie

All year, "Call Me Maybe" just made me reminisce about "Walking On Broken Glass."

i said this a while ago but it is my new karaoke goal to find myself singing "why" in drag

i also kinda love this album front to back, and especially bc it lands in a drifting and unresolved blue nile cowrite
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 6 September 2013 14:25 (ten years ago) link
I did a horrifying version of "Why" at karaoke once.

The sun's still shining in the big blue skyBut it don't mean nothing to meOh let the rain come downLet the wind blow through meI'm living in an empty roomWith all the windows smashedAnd I've got so little left to loseThat it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass

Man, those are awful lyrics written down.
And yet, the single is OK.

Wrong.
The single mix of "Little Bird" is.

before I ever got into rock/metal, the singles from this album were my shit. I mean don't get me wrong, I still love them, but as a kid I was into this shit rather than the 'cool' pop of the moment.
guess I need to listen to the album proper beyond the singles finally

I bought this on a bootleg cassette from a man at Speke Market, it was such a bad copy I could barely hear it through the hiss.

Man my dad really loved this album in 1992.

Can't believe how long it took me to listen to this gorgeous album. I mean, it opens with two amazing singles, why wouldn't the rest of it be great
I believe that love alone might do these things for you

listening to annie's covers album medusa from 1995 this morning. it's hilarious! i genuinely like "whiter shade of pale" for its pomp melodrama anyway and this rendition goes full bore in that direction. also opens with "no more i love yous" (originally by the lover speaks). has ilm ever weighed in on that potentially lost classic?
anyway if you ever wanted to hear "i can't get next to you" with a flamenco guitar solo, i have good news for you friend!
(also for clarity: the album really isn't that good but like most covers records, it's a fun curiosity. and yeah, the blue nile song is what prompted me to check it out. not a bad version; pretty faithful to the og.)
