Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Re: "Come Undone" -- has it grown on anyone else?
« on: December 26, 2010, 06:22:40 pm »
Agree re the intro, I just treat it as a separate melody before the song kicks in properly. Have to say I really love this song, fantastic melody, kind of uplifting I think, and I love the lyrics especially " I would add up what you mean to me but I cannot do the math" 
Vocally also I think Vanessa is very very strong on this track.
I really love the clap bit, leads nicely into the amazing outro, just love it when we get a long instrumental from Vanessa.

Thanks for posting this topic
Would loved to have seen a couple of unreleased tracks such as All I Ask, All Is Well, Superhero, Dark Carnival.
That said new album cover, hopefully a booklet inside, will almost certainly buy it.

Introduce Yourself / Hello from Ireland :-)

Hi There Nessaholics
So glad to be finally up and running, a big thank you to Kevin for helping me out and the offer of help from Martin, Thanks Guys.
Well,my name is Ray, I'm 36 and from Dublin, Ireland.
I only rediscovered Vanessa over the summer. Vanessas music first came to my attention back in 2002, when while on lunch from work in my local sandwich bar, A Thousand Miles came on the radio, immediately I was taken with the melody, but it was the lyrics that really struck a chord with me, it was like Vanessa had written the song about me and how I felt about the girl of my dreams at the time who was about to emigrate
Anyhow I bought the single and also bought her follow up single Ordinary Day, again for the same reasons as a thousand miles, though I did change the lyrics in my head from "boy" to girl On the back of these two songs I bought the album in Feb 2003 and was immediately taken with Pretty Baby, Vanessa was definitely writing about my situation with this girl
I'm ashamed to say I only listened to these three songs,circumstances at the time meant I didn't really listen to any music for a couple of months and then the album and Vanessa got forgotten about for some reason, that is until the summer of this year the girl who I had fallen for came up in conversation with a friend, and it prompted me to listen to A Thousand Miles again, and just like when I first heard the song back in '02, I was totally taken with the song, I then listened to Ordinary Day and Pretty Baby and started watching Vanessa videos on youtube, came across Paradise and All Is Well live and that was it, I was hooked.
Anyway have bought Harmonium and Heroes and Thieves in the last few months and can honestly say I have become a nessaholic
I have never been to the States but am definitely going to be making the trip to see Vanessa live.
So happy to have discovered this board,and I am really looking forward to contributing to the board and reading your posts on all things Vanessa, and sharing Rabbits on the Run when it is released. Sadly we don't get any Vanessa news over here in Ireland and the UK, so am relying on you guys to keep me up to date with all the Vanessa news
As well as music I'm a big soccer fan and am a season ticket holder for a team in London called Arsenal who play in The Premier league, so I travel to London quite a bit.
Sorry for the long introduction guys, hope I haven't bored you too much
