Title: Do you miss Vanessa's "Dark Side"?
Post by: MeganJane on August 05, 2008, 10:56:38 pm: Do you miss Vanessa's "dark side"/ "goth"-ness that she showcased through songs like "Wanted", "Half A Week Before the Winter" etc. or do you like the direction her music is taking now?

I know her music was never all "dark", but it was a big element in her music and now it's mostly gone...

Post by: _all_is_well_ on August 06, 2008, 07:44:50 am: I voted the last becuase I do like all her music but i DO MISS THAT ELEMENT in her music. There should be another option like that.

I really like the dark music, its great, maybe she should intermix some, idk. anything from her is great, BUT I DO AS WELL MISS THE DARK MUSIC VERY MUCH!

I think all is well might not have mass appeal to people who arent vanessa fans but for us it shoul have been on the alblum.

Post by: Suicidalboobs on August 06, 2008, 07:34:16 pm: YES, i miss the darkly elements. When I first heard Fools Like Me I wanted to vomit because it was not at all as dark as the live performance. All as Well was a cool dark song though, too bad it wasn't released.

I liked "fools like me" live but not the CD version, its too pop for me. Maybe the next album will have more of be not nobody to it.

That's cool that you got that from it. I didn't, which is why I was disappointed.
