I woke up this morning and chose 'Runaway Horses'

[Suedehead]

I'm sorry but it's probably the 7th Best Pop Album Of All Time!
Actually scrap that.
I'm not sorry!

 

[jivafox]

Yaaasssss

 

[Suedehead]

I'm really feeling 'La Luna' today
*writhes around in bedsheets in Venice under the moonlight*

 

[Suedehead]

Now I walk along the streets of Marseilles
The winter sky is cold and gray
And I don't know why I left you that day
And I don't know where you are

 

[jivafox]

Time moves, a summer wind
I can see your face again
Was it such a tragedy


Being you,


being me?

 

[VV]

It's always a good time to listen to Belinda!

 

[Say Sheena-na-na]

I love love love it, up in the pantheons of great pop albums of all time for me too, though A Woman and a Man is her masterpiece.

10 Leave A Light On
10 Runaway Horses
10 Vision Of You
11 Summer Rain
10 La Luna
10 We Want The Same Thing
09 Deep Deep Ocean
09 Valentine
08 Whatever It Takes
07 Shades of Michelangelo

That's a FUCKING STRING OF SINGLES right there!

 

[Say Sheena-na-na]

WHOOOOOOOOOOAH
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Christian]

though A Woman and a Man is her masterpiece.

Now this has piqued my interest. I've never heard it!

 

[BoysForSeles]

Tracks 1-6 is really a greatest hits for lots of other artists. ‘Shades of Michelangelo’ seems to crop up on nearly every compilation.

 

[Say Sheena-na-na]

Now this has piqued my interest. I've never heard it!

She hates it, but I absolutely LOVE IT.

10 In Too Deep
10 California
10 A Woman and a Man
10 Remember September
09 Listen to Love
11 Always Breaking My Heart
10 Love Doesn't Live Here
07 He Goes On
08 Kneel at Your Feet
09 Love in the Key of C
08 My Heart Goes Out To You

And having done that just to find out, it's FAIRLY SIMILAR scores- wise, though, I must confess.

 

[Say Sheena-na-na]

I remember I was in the tanning salon
When I heard that River Phoenix was gone
They say that only the good die young
But that ain't true where I come from...

 

[Say Sheena-na-na]

Actually, fuck it, I'm going to break out my deluxe vinyl and pop it on for a spin RIGHT NOW!

 

[FetchFugly]

Absolutely peak Belinda. Her two best songs ever, and everything bar Shades could have been a single.

 

[Suedehead]

10 Leave A Light On
10 Runaway Horses
10 Vision Of You
11 Summer Rain
10 La Luna
10 (We Want) The Same Thing
10 Deep Deep Ocean
09 Valentine
07 Whatever It Takes
09 Shades of Michaelangelo

Now I love A Woman and a Man but for me it doesn’t come close to Runaway Horses which really is near perfect.

 

[Suedehead]

Why DOES she hate A Woman and a Man? I’m sure I read about it somewhere here but forgot..

 

[Say Sheena-na-na]

Why DOES she hate A Woman and a Man? I’m sure I read about it somewhere here but forgot..

Basically she was off her tits during the recording.

She particularly hates the Per Gessle tracks. Which is disastrous considering she’ll never do Always Breaking My Heart live.

Now I love A Woman and a Man but for me it doesn’t come close to Runaway Horses which really is near perfect.

You know, I think it’s because I feel the album tracks on the former are better than those on the latter that I think the album is better- but there are more singles on Runaway Horses which are better…
