First of let me start off by saying great music is music which makes you feel something(other than dead inside) That beind said i know the work of P.M. Dawn has certainly had its way with me time and time again. I was just wondering as a bunch of fans (or artist) what does each album mean to you?
The Utopian Album-Of course the album which got us all hooked. I loved it/love it because there isn't much anything like it. (not then ...not now) I also was pretty darn young and discovering who in the hell i was(no this doesn't have George Micheal bathroom story attached to it) It had all the different sort of vibes you'd need in it. Laid back but also something you could get down with. Plus there was an NBA commercial with those guys i think from this time....I loved the piss outta that. Any-hoozalle....I associate this album in many ways with a musical awakening of sorts.
The Bliss Album-This album to me just brought home the point that this group was something special. From the first track on thru i enjoyed/enjoy grooving out to this cd. It holds one of my favorite songs of all time on it(yes that song) It also has the best damn Beatles cover around. I had my doubts this album would outshine (for me) the Utopian Experiance. I think overall it really did. I was 19 when i purchased this.
Jesus Wept-I think this is a defining point in the bands history of growth.The music follows its own rules. More psychedelic vibes kick out. Some great soulful songs on this album. All in all my pick for the album whose FEEL i enjoy the most. It gets me feeling the best. Not sure why. (maybe it's the cocaine i place in the cd holder spot)
Dearest Christian-I think this is a great album as well. It also makes me feel but it makes me feel the more down emotions. I just chalk that up to good emotional lyrics and vibes. Now i know something happened negativelly with V2. ----i don't know what that is-----Still as far as i was concerned i consider this album to be a wonderful representation of a two talented people making music to last many generations. I am particulary fond of the untitled track. Always gives some goose bumps
F*cked Music-Yes new founded buddies. I am one of the few lucky bastards to purhase this bad boy. Here's a funny story associated with all of that a well. I was so pumped way back in the day when i ordered that (i want to say i was pretty darn quick about it) that i forgot everything which they said was to come with your order. Well....just the other day i was thinking to myself...waitaminute....wasn't there supposed to be an autograph somewhere??? Of course when my brain began recalling things i made it a point to check where the guys said the autograph would be and sure enough it's there....Says II Daniel M. I never go by Daniel. So i guess i'll have to let just my sister, BE and J.C call me that from now on.
***now to my view about the album***A few songs on there which absolutely kill me. AIR, DOn't make me lie to you,,Being nowhere. I think the flow of this album. I am just happy to own this music and happy it was shared with us. The song Be Bastard always cracks my ass up. All in all i enjoy this album but not to the level of the prior two. I just find the two prior to be my favorites for anytime...where with F*cked i have to be in a certain mood to here.
Anyways. Just wanted to see what everyone has to say....
