Please don't beat me up too hard, but that's me who voted "To Bring You My Love". And it's not that I didn't like it, in fact I really like every song on there, but it's just doesn't work for me AS A WHOLE, as an album, and I don't even know why. I tend to think that's because there's only 10 tracks, most of them are quite long and the others are too short, so there's almost no "middle ground" (my dislike for "Down By the Water" music video and to SOME of her stage costumes from this period are probably adding to that as well). Plus, for example, I can listen to songs from "Dance Hall" every day, but as much as I love "Send His Love to Me" or "Long Snake Moan" I tend to listen to them once in a few days (on speakers, that is).
I also happen to like "Uh Huh Her" much better than "Stories", that's how weird I am.
Lol, of course I accept your opinion( even if I completely 110 percent disagree). It's just something I genuinely cant wrap my mind around, it being my favorite album by anybody. I literally listen to it every day, I have two copies one I keep at home and one I carry around in my bag. And also, its strange because I think its so strong because as a whole it fits together perfectly. And the B'sides are incredible/ I think her voice was at its peak. And I LOVE the freaking costumes, the dance moves, the attitude. I could watch performaces for that era for hours and hours.
Its also funny you mention the outfits for the reason that I HATE the outfits and look from Uh Huh Her and I'm sure that adds to it.
I do like Dance Hall though, and very much am into A Woman A Man( very beefheart).
