I'll be there... most likely sitting in the back on the comfy red couch (if it's still there. I haven't been to the croc in a while).

The problem with the strings on HoM is that either a) they used a terrible synth string program, or b) the strings are out of tune. The highs sound very tinny, also.

i somewhat agree. i thought it would be slower and full of strings....

I can't believe everybody thought it would be slow. I mean, come on, it was really fast when she played it solo. The album version was exactly like I thought it would be.

I didn't necessarily think it would be slow... I just figured it would keep the same sortof mood that the acoustic version had. Heck, even the portion of the song before the first hook shared the mood.

And then the hook just added too much... there was no buildup, just a valley turning into a quick peak, then going into a valley, and then peaking... then peaking higher with the obnoxious chorus at the end.

The arrangement didn't evoke feelings of love... or despair... or whatever that feeling is when you have fallen for someone and want them to see you how you see them (that's the best I could think of).

Instead... I was just confused.

More Than This sounds too disney... granted, most of the choral arrangements on this album give it a far too cheesy feel.

Home is my favorite song just because it's one of the few that isn't extremely overproduced.

Have you even heard harmonium?

What makes you think I haven't?
