"Come Undone" -- has it grown on anyone else?

[prfectbinature]

honestly, this song has yet to grow on me. i try to listen to it but usually i can't get past the intro, and if i skip the intro it just feels too slow and like it won't amount to anything. also the clapping gets annoying.
im not saying the song is bad, but definitely, in my opinion, not the best on the album.

[BWilli]

i was referring to the clapping in the actual song, not the audience thing. i think that's cheesy.

ah, ok...yeah, the clapping in the song is ok.  haha

[pedrojoper]

the first 48 seconds are terrible, but after that its one of my favorites on the album

Agree. It was one of my favs of the album from the start, but I always skip the first part...

[SadAsBlue]

One of my favorites

[Morgan]

I love that song, and it seems so connected with My Best for me.

[zurielshimon]

Oh, I love Come Undone!  Vanessa just sounds so fucking pretty singing it!

[_all_is_well_]

I love that song

[Kate]

First I didn't reallly like this song. But now I enjoy listening to this one and even singing it!  :wink:

[VanessaCarltonMania]

i loved Come Undone from the first time i heard it...its actually my fav song on the CD....ITS AMAZING!!!!

[Sharona PianoBea]

I agree with every word of Katherine.  <3

ya it has grown on me...i still can't stand the first 48 seconds...but after that i LOVE it.

The first 45 seconds!!?? I love it! awesome dark and moody

ITS JUST LIKE DARK CARNIVAL!! and kind of like Superhero, the album version. It has that same weird thing happening. Hasn't anyone clicked? Its awesome as its like a minor version of the rest of the song.
I love all of Come Undone, and right from first listen the begninng was like my favorite bit!

Oh, and "Come Undone" should be the next single.

<3<3<3

Would compare to the Colbie Callait stuff that really blew up.....only 10x better.

My gosh, so I wasn't alone in my opinion about the intro. I thought I'd get torn apart if I ever expressed that opinion here!

[Martin.]

Yeah, the intro is annoying. It was fine the first two times or so, but after that - ugh.

I have this video idea in my head of it being set in the Victorian times & in one of those posh plays in a nice old, haunted theatre. There's "two" Vanessa's. One where she plays on this really old, brown, wooden piano and the other Vanessa is acting in the play. You can guess the gist of the storyline for the video. Vanessa plays the piano intro as the audience walks in, and then the story unfolds. Then as everyone claps - like in the song at the end - Vanessa plays the outro while the OTHER Vanessa bows with the cast, waves to the audience, etc.

MEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aww well the whole song grew on me piece by piece. The beginning is so Vanessa, it is like her soul crying, composing the feelings needed to begin the song, and once the piano begins after the 41st second mark she just pours more and more of herself into those keys.

Have to agree that this is her strongest song vocally on the album. Starting with the claps from the audience is where the song really begins for me and it just leads into the 3:48 mark where the piano really takes off. Just so slow and very stripped down beat but it just makes it that much more powerful.

My favorite song by far of her whole catalog perhaps.

I can see this easily.
