POLL: The Lion and The Cobra

listening to "Troy" communing with 16-year-old Amanda. this song is badass. she sounds so strangled.

this album is AMAZING

this thread has inspired me to pull this out tonight and play it loud

has this been remastered? i remember having to turn it up really loud to get the full desired effect.
i always think of this album when i hear someone described as a "force of nature"

<3 "I Want Your (Hands on Me)"

has this been remastered?

this still stands:

POLL: The Lion and The Cobra

lol at new thread opening image

it's impossible to get tired of this album.

PUT 'EM ON PUT 'EM ON PUT 'EM ON ME

after all these years, I still associate "I Want Your (Hands on Me)" with Nightmare on Elm Street

MC Lyte remix, plz

I went back and listened to this edit for the first time in forever and...it's pretty terrible. I somehow remembered it being so much better.

btw, just re-read this entire thread. So much positivity!

fantastic album

mandinka is the greatest song ever written

btw:

I DON'T KNOW NO SHAME I FEEL NO PAIN I CAAAAAN'T SEE THE FLAME

Brad, stop invading my car playlists.

FP'd you for this

lol I like MC Lyte a lot, but not on that.

Lyte's rap might not be her best but there's some fun dub-lite effects in those mixes

also what this guy said:

LOOK/LOOK/LOOK I'M IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE

PUT 'EM ON PUT 'EM ON PUT 'EM ON ME

1) this album is the best album ever made

2) did I inadvertently invent the concept of the interzone upthread and, if so, how many cocktails does Alfred owe me

1. otm

2. are we gonna count those cocktails

"Troy" is the clear choice here, but "Jerusalem" should have garnered at least a few votes.

The guitars overall are fierce.

I was fortunate enough to see her on this tour. She was fierce. I was in the front row and almost had to take a step back.

Would've loved to have seen her on this tour, I saw her on the next one in 1990 after her fame had exploded. She was drunk/high off her ass and slurred most of the lyrics, prompting boos from the audience.
