Doves

[LemonMelon]

I became a fan because of Last Broadcast, and it's still a classic IMO. Any perceived filler is greatly outweighed by the awesome.

 

[u2popmofo]

Lost Souls ranks #1 on my list.

Agreed.

Snowden is fucking amazing though.

Agreed.

Snowden is fucking perfection. That, the first three tunes and Sky Starts Falling I like very much.

Agreed.

I like both, and vacillate between which I prefer...but Lost Souls remains my overall favorite

Agreed.

How does everyone feel now about Some Cities in retrospect?

When it came out, I would have quickly told you it was easily my second favorite in regards to their "albums". Now I'm kinda leading more towards it being in last place. I still like it quite a great deal though, tough to say.

1. Last Broadcast (Satellites )
2. Lost Souls
3. Some Cities

I still like Some Cities a lot, but definitely prefer the other two.

Some Cities is awesome

[u2popmofo]

The Cedar Room is probably one of my all time favorite songs.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I love The Cedar Room, it reminds me of when I had to travel to North Carolina often for business. It is one of my must have driving songs.

 

[phanan]

I concur regarding The Cedar Room. Gorgeous track.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

Snowden is beautiful too.

Rise is my favorite. Everytime I hear it, I want to be lying in a field with the warm sun on my face while I am gazing at fluffy clouds.

I can't wait to see them perform live again.

Snowden is fucking perfection.

Agreed.

Well thanks to MY thread, I have been listening and watching their videos on youtube this evening.

And I also love Black and White Town.

Well thanks to MY thread, I have been listening and watching their videos on youtube this evening.

And I also love Black and White Town.

Same here, the thread is excellent, but, I should think that my participation makes that thought obvious.

 

[u2popmofo]

I don't think I've seen many Doves music videos. I'll have to check some of these out at some point.

I don't think I've seen many Doves music videos. I'll have to check some of these out at some point.

They're all new to me, so watching them tonight has been a treat.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

Same here, the thread is excellent, but, I should think that my participation makes that thought obvious.

 

[No spoken words]

Meaning, if the thread sucked, I'd not be here. I bet you now wished that it sucked.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

Never. You have been a lovely contributor.

move to Vancouver since you love it so much

 

[u2popmofo]

The last time they had a show scheduled here, they canceled the date/tour. At least I have nothing to get my hopes up for this time.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Utah Justice?

 

[u2popmofo]

I am completely miserable, San Diego.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]
