Well, after 3 long weeks, I finally received the cd!! It is SOOOO amazing, so unique, so scary, so mysterious, so impressive. I am sooo happy with it, it makes HOL sound so inferior (but still a superb album!) Anyway, I was wondering, since I have read that the two more popular Kate albums are these two, I thought of doing a little poll to see which one is better. I looked at the last 3 or 4 pages and didn't see a poll like this, so don't shoot me if this has been done! Pick your favorite and if you feel like it, give reasons why you like it better than the other one  | | | 03-15-2005, 06:51 PM | #2 | | Rising On The Wings of the Sun Join Date: Jul 2000 Posts: 20,359 | Hounds Of Love, I choose YOU! While I love the dark, bombastic genius of The Dreaming (and really, where would Bjork be without this album? hehe), Hounds Of Love strikes a much more powerful and personal chord within me. I can't quite explain why... __________________ Like Icarus, ascending... | | | 03-15-2005, 06:55 PM | #3 | | i'm cheerleading myself Join Date: Feb 2000 Posts: 45,845 | The Dreaming. All the way. I love the first half of Hounds of Love. The second bit is a bit too precious for me (I like it, but). The Dreaming is just a weird ass album and I love it too pieces. | | | 03-15-2005, 09:12 PM | #4 | | you ain't got no soul power Join Date: Apr 2003 Posts: 6,412 | The Dreaming, hands down. HOL is an exceptional album by anyone's standards, but no other album by any artist has the same effect on me that The Dreaming has. The well constructed narratives, the brilliant music that accompanies the narratives, and the vocals are all out of this world...literally. No other album has ever reached the genius of The Dreaming to me, and I'm beginning to think no other album ever will. | | | 03-16-2005, 06:18 AM | #5 | | Cheap at the price Join Date: Feb 2001 Posts: 3,623 | The Dreaming.

Sometimes it's The Dreaming and sometimes it's HOL. They're my favourites! xxx | | | 03-16-2005, 06:40 AM | #7 | | Cheap at the price Join Date: Feb 2001 Posts: 3,623 | It is difficult... after Never For Ever and Lionheart (my two big favourites) it isn't so easy to choose... and it'll be even harder by the end of the year (hopes). Gareth x | | | 03-16-2005, 06:42 AM | #8 | | these boots were made for twirling Join Date: Oct 2001 Posts: 1,822 | After much deliberation, I went with Hounds of Love. It was tough though, but Hounds has the edge for me due to the fact that it was the first album I ever bought for myself when I was 12, and because of a little song called Cloudbusting.... xx Sarah xx | | | 03-16-2005, 06:57 AM | #9 | | Set my spirit dancing Join Date: Jan 2005 Posts: 313 | Quote: | Originally Posted by sarah-louise and because of a little song called Cloudbusting.... xx Sarah xx | ...ooh yes, that pretty itsy bitsy teenie weennie little song... xx | | | 03-16-2005, 07:24 AM | #10 | | Laughing Cavalier Join Date: Feb 2002 Posts: 3,814 | Do I really have to clarify? | | | 03-16-2005, 10:36 AM | #11 | | there's a haunting here Join Date: Oct 2000 Posts: 28,213 | I chose Hounds of Love and not because I think the music is better because both albums are parallel to each other on that plane. But I think HOL is produced better and is a much stronger and tighter album as far as structure and song placement is concerned. AND I am listening to it right now...hehehe xo Rachel Last edited by KV : 03-16-2005 at 10:37 AM. | | | 03-16-2005, 12:40 PM | #12 | | yeah yeah yeah Join Date: Jun 2003 Posts: 804 | The Dreaming easily wins this one. | | | 03-16-2005, 03:27 PM | #13 | | Tart with a heart Join Date: Sep 2001 Posts: 3,477 | Hounds of Love hands down, because (I know this'll sound pretentious) it changed my criteria of what good music was for ever. __________________ ...gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mongrel mind... | | | 03-16-2005, 03:39 PM | #14 | | cloudbouncer Join Date: Aug 2003 Posts: 4,217 | The Dreaming. I had a really hard time getting into Hounds Of Love (the second half at least), still have even. My love for The Dreaming was instant. Sure, some songs took a little longer than other, but I loved it from the start. I didn't have that with HOL. __________________ I joke about trash 'cause it takes class to be enlightened  | | | 03-16-2005, 04:03 PM | #15 | | " My strength is in my soul" Join Date: Oct 2001 Posts: 9,036 | This poll is utterly messed up* hahah I went with hounds ONLY b/c it was my first Kate Love. | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | All times are GMT -4.
