Well, now that we have all seen and heard all three albums, my fellow nessholics, I think it's time to choose our favorite album. For the time being, I am in love with Harmonium, the second album. I think all the songs on it are perfect and the flow is just great. It's just a pity that it didn't sell more than it did, though.
Edit: The poll does not work, please just post responses in writing and ignore poll.

Heroes and thieves !

heroes and thieves :D

I like the sound, feeling, and production of Harmonium. The songs on Heroes and Thieves are really good, but the way some of them have been produced I have doubts about (ie. "Fools Like Me").
I'm going to have to go with Harmonium as well.

'Harmonium'.
-
H&T by far
-
Probably Harmonium. It had some major classics, but then again so did BNN and so does H&T! :lol:
-
A dead tie between H&T and Harmonium.

H & T !

wow am I the only one that is in love with BNN?
-
i don't like most of be not nobody so that's out of the race .
i LOVE harmonium but only the first 6 tracks.... the others are only OK for me.
i really really like every single song on H&T.... but some of the songs in the first half of Harmonium are better.
overall, heroes and thieves is my favorite.

yeah, H & T is my favorite by far. Harmonium was classic, but She Floats and The Wreckage scare me, and BNN was so different from ATM that I thought they should have had White Houses as the first single.
-
For me it would have been hands DOWN for H&T but the overproduced alternative poppy-ness ruined the amazing songs for me. Especially since the lyrics of H&T is just absolutely brilliantly written. But I prefer Harmonium's classical style with a bit of pop for the background music. So it's a hard decision, but I'd say for production Harmonium. Lyrics and arrangements (vocal decisions) H&T. =( could of been an easier decision.
-
Harmonium still... H&T a close second. harmonium is the best (for me) because this record was Vanessa in her artistic best... ALL the songs were phenomenal! h&T's commercial, songs are really good but I appreciate harmonium better.
HARMONIUM!!! :D
-
HARMONIUM!!!! NO DISCUSSION

Heroes&Thieves :!:
-
Harmonium, when I listen to heroes and thieves, I sometimes feel like she is trying too hard.
-
harmonium!

Harmonium and Heroes & Thieves.
When I listen to Harmonium I say : that's my favourite album ! and it's the same with Heroes & Thieves. But I have to say, Heroes & Thieves doesn't have this goth touch... I miss it a little. But Harmonium doesn't have the nostalgic touch (except in "San Fran"), the nostalgia I feel in songs like "Spring Street" or "More than this".
-
I can't decide bewtwwen Heroes and Thieves and be not nObody (this record is soooooooooooooooo amazing). But i'd probably chosse H&T, but i like it only a little bit more than BNN
-
Nessaholista, your sig is cool. :lol:
-
For me, it's Harmonium. I love Heroes and Thieves but it just doesn't hold up to the perfection that is Harmonium. I love all the songs on Harmonium but on H&T, there's one song I really dislike (This Time). Just for that fact alone, Harmonium is my favorite album.
-
H&T has become my favorite album. :D
-
Heroes & Thieves...harmonium used to be my favorite, but I'm drawn to positive/happy/hopeful music, and HT has that positiveness lol. Plus I think it just sounds more real than her past stuff, its more relatable, if thats a word :D.
-
Heroes and Thieves, although Harmonium is a VERY, VERY close second.
-
heroes & thieves by far. i've literally been listening to it on repeat since it came out. i'm obsessed with it.
harmonium is PHENOMENAL... it's definitely a close second.
-
I can't vote. =\
-
I really don't think I can choose...it depends on my mood. I love them all.

I can't vote either. Something's wrong with the poll. :?

What happens when you try to vote?

The results just show up, there's no option to even vote.

I can't get it to work either. I think that you can only have polls in the poll section.
If you want to vote on what album you would like, I created a poll there about this topic about 2 weeks ago: http://forum.nessaholics.com/viewtopic.php?t=11004

HARMONIUM!! :D
As Imaginary Ocean said, H&T is missing the "goth touch"... and that's precisely why I like Vanessa! So H&T does NOTHING for me
-
er...
Am I the only one who don't like Harmonium?
White Houses is my MOST fav. song ever. I also like Who's To Say and Afterglow but Harmonium is a true "patch of songs" and that's why I don't like it. I don't feel any connections between the songs (still think Private Radio is silly), unlike BNN and H&T.
If BNN doesn't have ATM, Pretty Baby (or even OD), then it will be a truly dark and rock album. Unsung, Rinse, Sway, Prince are a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Although I don't like the last 3 songs as much, they fit the top of the album so well.
H&T... agree with Imaginary Ocean, there is no "goth touch." H&T is so pop and mainstream, and that means H&T is easy to listen to and easy to love! I enjoy all the songs there. I've never listen to any album as much as H&T. It puts me in such a good mood whenever I listen to it.
Harmonium: 2.5/5
BNN: 3.5/5
H&T: 4/5
->vote for BNN 'cause of its remarkable sounds.
-
i don't listen to papa, she floats or the wreckage, so pretty much the end of the album. but i think the rest is brilliant.
but H&T is my favorite.
-
I find it interesting that so many of you guys love/prefer the "goth" side of Vanessa. While it is definitely there, it's often subtle.
-
^^^I actually prefer the lighter half of V's music. I like White Houses, ATM, OD, Nolita Fairytale much more than Papa, Wanted, Paradise, and She Floats....
Although some of the songs that are kind of in between like Twilight, C'est La Vie, Fools Like Me, and Hands On Me really really appeal to me. :)
-
All of her songs appeal to me, partly because I have both a light side and a dark side, just like her.

As for me... mostly dark side :twisted: hehehe :D
