I agree a lot, She Floats I'm still kinda getting used to...

And I'm not really into Private Radio because of "Many Vanessa's singing all at one time" thing... it's not very fun to sing along with IMO...

Cest La Vie is the bomb.
:)

Who's To Say is so PERSONAL!
White Houses is so much fun...
Annie is a real tear jerker, ear pleaser...

Half a Week Before the Winter sounds like a nightmare she had one night and it moved her so intensly she HAD to write about it, I'm just absolutely lost on what its all about...

Either way I love this CD.

Annie is great! I also like the screaming in She Floats! But the first time I heard it, It was really freaky

Yeah thats mostly why I don't like She Floats so much right now (I say that because her songs that don't click with me right away eventually do)...

I'm sure many of you already know this, but JIC...

If you look in the credits after each song, when you get to She Floats it says that the WHOLE choir you hear is actually just Stephan and Vanessa! I think thats cool. But obviously they used whatever machine is used to make it happen... I highly doubt Vanessa hit that high "scream" all by herself.

And maybe without that single note that screams out you at... I might have liked it right off the bat.

Oh well.
