General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / The "I have the album" thread

« on: October 26, 2007, 02:19:37 am »

And finally, mine has arrived! Almost two weeks AFTER I was supposd to hve it! grr. The songs sound so much better when you can just sit and put the CD on haha..
I'm odd like that, if I get a CD I have to sit and listen  to it straight through

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / I noticed something about Harmonium!

« on: October 18, 2007, 11:32:29 am »

you know what would be hilarious? if Harmonium became as successful or more-so than either BNN or HaT :p
I think that would just be great lol... well the success of the album anyways, but hopefully H&T will do really well first :p
actually second thought, no because V's old label would get money from the sales :S

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / BLENDER REVIEW 3 1/2 Stars

« on: October 12, 2007, 10:39:36 am »

They said somethin like two albums into her career "quote from Hands on Me" then said and onto her 3rd disc....
It's a good review actually

Right quote time lol :

Twenty-seven years old and two albums into an up-and-down career, Vanessa Carlton comes off like a college freshman — poised, bright and eager — rather than a mildly bruised person of the world. With lines like “Someday when the stories are told, they’ll tell of a love like this,” her third disc .....

obviously they mean two discs in (BNN + Harmonium) and now she's releasing a third.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / not disappointed...

I ADORE V's previous albums and recordings, but I actually think H&T is her best album purely on my taste, which I agree is just my opinion. It's very different to her old stuff, although I think Nolita Fairytale is kinda a segway from old to new, it's weird to explain lol.
But I do love this album a lot

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / It's leaked

I agree, I think it's a much more mature and experimental album than the previous ones. I think it's less "Pop", although I think a lot of songs are really catchy! I really want Home and More than This to be singles.

And about listening, I'm only gunna listen if it comes on shuffle on my iPod lol. If not I'm not going to purposely listen either till my copy's delivered I'm really looking forward to it! I love physical CDs, digital music just isn't the same as getting your hand on the booklet or putting it into a CD player lol.

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Heroes and Thieves (album)

« on: September 26, 2007, 02:51:24 pm »

I love the studio version of Hands on Me, it's sooo good!

I actually like The One, I think it's just coz Stevie's voice is too low for it. Its something we'll get used to I reckon.
I'm thinking along the lines of Amy Lee singing STAAAAAAAAAAAAAR about 7 times during the song "Your Star" it was so annoying when you first heard it, but I think its the best Evanescence song ever now.
I love this album, and I agree with V about it being the best patch of songs she's ever written... and it's great coz I can relate to it so much, or parts anyways.

I can't wait to buy it

EDIT: I also love the fact you can hear SOOO much more piano in this album, it's the best instrument ever

2 hours remaining for me!! And I have super high fast broadband haha.
But to add to that, there's numerous forums I read and dont often post to, I've been browsing here for about a year now just flicking through the pages... But I mean an opportunity like this arises lol.
Now I've signed up I probably will end up posting a lot more

Oh and Evboard last year, they have like i dunno THOUSANDS of members, i can't remember if it's in the tens or hundreds, but when The Open Door leaked, they just left discussion of the songs closed until Oct 2nd (international release date, which in Vanessa's case is Oct 8th) which I thinks a good idea. I mean a lot of people don't want to know until they have chance to listen
I for one though, do get leaked albums and then buy them if they're worth listening to. I delete songs/albums I don't like from my computer, so considering it's V, I think I'll be buying anyways haha.
