Re: New Album announced: 'You Want It Darker'
Ms. Simmons also tweeted at one point that after 4 plays she was upgrading her one word review of the album from "great" to "magnificent". I don't know whether that upgrade post dates the writing of her review in Mojo or not. I imagine she gave it more than 4 spins before review...

Re: New Album announced: 'You Want It Darker'
I noticed a 5 star review in this months Mojo for anyone interested who's in the UK, didn't contain a huge amount of new information but was very positive about the album

Re: New Album announced: 'You Want It Darker'
As something of a 'lurker' here I just wanted to post thanks to all those that provided updates for the album that has had me salivating like an overexcited canine ever since I heard about it. Muchas gracias amigos

Re: New poem "Steer Your Way"
"Let us die to make things cheap" My first thought was that this was about war, though though it could just be me as it reminded me of something I wrote in a song a while ago called Have I got News For You... "We bombed some place we've never heard of before It teaches us all new geog...

Re: Why it's almost like the blues?
Hi, Picking up on Tchocolatl's last line in the quoted post, what do others here make of why it's almost like the blues? I've listened to the song twice and have an opinion as to why. I'm far more interested in hearing from others on their take on this than in posting my opinion. If people post the...

"There is no G-d in heaven There is no hell below So says the great professor of all there is to know But I’ve had the invitation that a sinner can’t refuse It’s almost like salvation It’s almost like the blues It’s almost like the blues" What does he mean by "ive had the invitation ...

Re: Listen to "Almost Like The Blues"
I'm not sure what he means by " the blues". If he means depression then why does he mention it in the end next to salvation? I think he's just talking about the kind of everyday moans we all have which give us the 'blues' and which pale in comparison to the kind of 'real' problems he ment...

Re: "That don't make it junk"
I always had similar thoughts, about it being about trying to transcend the ego (i.e. the sperate sense of self) while living as and through the ego.
