  •   Alison has clearly aged, but she has done so with grace and loveliness.  



    Of course, I agree but, there are shots (yes, it is brilliant filming) that do not show the age at all.  She might as well be twenty-five.  Err, and what Carpy said.  I must agree that trying to hide that we age is insane.

  • I referenced "Monster Love" back at the start of when it was released , what I didn't mention was that I was referring to the acoustic version they played at KCRW, a heart breaking, guitar driven melancholica-fest and it's the acoustic guitar line that's similar to Drew . Only on the acoustic version does the geetar come out of the mix.

    So, onwards on my train to somewhere

  • Welcome, HorseTearz! Nice first post, especially the point about embracing age in performers. We age together and the changes in both sides of the equation are what make it so meaningful.



    Yes absolutely! It's merely a compliment, to say that a ladies beauty is such that it is unaffected by age. It's much more than skin deep. Personally, i think she's sexier now than she's ever been.

  • I am hypnotized and mesmerized by this video. It's evoked in me a sensual state of mind. It's brought tears to my eyes reviving in me memories long lost that I held sacred for a time.
    "To remember is to begin to live again" and this is how she feels at the end of the video when she maliciously smiles. I've been watching the video a lot these past days trying to find a meaning, specially when she enters the room and the other Alison looks at her. Maybe could it be that, she has changed so much from that time when she lived that experience and now is looking back at it from a different perspective?.
    I love the tune. It's so pretty. The bass is reminiscent of 80's boleros (Julio Iglesias) and a vibe of Cologne Cerrone Houdini, and the strings once again inspired by Nick Drake.
    I am very pleased and currently in such a sensual state of mind.
    I told you how I felt the earth could move.

    Thanks! I was hoping for an album instrumental like they had on Melancholy Sky, but no.

  • Having given Drew a day of rest as I thought I had overdone it the first day. It really is stunningly beautiful, almost feels like I am listening to it for the first time again. Prob a good job I may not get to see it live until Nov as I would no doubt be a sniveling wreck :) . Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.

  • If anyones interested the video was shot at Tottenham House :)
