I can't even think what Occident, Esme, or Autumn sound like. So it would have to be one of those. Not a huge fan of Provenance, but no need to skip it.
I find "Does Not Suffice" to be the only weak song on the entire album. I know it is brimming with force and provides a kind of "closure" and response to "Easy," but I just think there is something cheap about it. Perhaps it's (what I think is) overproduction toward the end or the same bitterness as others have noted in "Easy." I say this after listening to the album for a while and disliking some of the others at first but then really, really listening to them (like sitting down and completely concentrating, if that doesn't make me look like an idiot for admitting that I listen to music half assedly sometimes) and I find each song to be exquisite in its own way.
What are everyone's thoughts on this song? I think it's quite different in terms of style from many of the other songs on the album anyway. I know one person has mentioned it negatively in this thread.
I really can't imagine that, Does Not Suffice is one of my very clear favourites on the entire album, probably my second or third favourite. I find its simplicity brutally powerful and love it both out of context as a brilliant image of thinking back on a relationship after leaving it with beautiful poetry and a superb closer to the album responding not only to Easy and In California but also to the themes presented throughout the album. I don't have any personal problem with the end, I find the instrumentation some of the strongest on any of her music, and I find the end especially powerful, acting as a cathartic musical coda expelling all the complex emotion layered over the course of the 2 hours. But obviously you're entitled to your opinion.
I changed my mind, too, it's either Go Long or Good Intentions Paving Company, because for me those are the ones where the vibrato gets somewhat annoying, and also the softest recordings (so hard to listen to over my bad speakers!)
And he used to make me pray, wearing a mask like a death's head. When he put me there in the back seat, and he said, "Jesus save me, Jesus save me."
OK...if I had to skip a song, it would be Esme. That doesn't mean it should have been left off the album. She could release a 10 CD album, complete with her practice sessions, and that would be fine with me.
I think it's a rough appropriation of the Black Bess tale just adding her emotion and narrative to the central relationship of the story maybe. Sorta like she decided to write a song about a close relationship between a person and a horse and the name of the horse is just a reference, nuancing her own story with the emotions involved in an existing one. Does that make any sense?
I listened to the whole of HOOM yesterday and I don't think any of the songs were worst. Some of them are better, but there aren't really any where I think, "This is the worst song on the album."
I agree completely, Alex. This thread might as well be about one's favorite least favorite color (colour, for anyone outside the U.S.). BTW, my least favorite color today is Citrine. Check with me tomorrow to see if that has changed.
Yes! Jordan is my first name which I don't like but use as a forum name, Alex is my middle name which I use as a first name. And Weirdelves is Tom and ode to is Milki or Celia... You'll catch on.
