3rd album
reached #17 here
their best selling going 3X platinum
rare they give you the meaning of the album title
implying their 15 minutes of fame were not up
they had more of a metal sound before this album
this is the only one I have
last album was in 2009
Every Morning was their biggest hit
I prefer this which reached #7 here

What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 16-04-2016
cool album title....
I picked up their "floored" album in a discount bin a while ago (yet to play/post it)...
I had no idea what genre they were, thanks for dropping 'metal', it wont be a surprise now!
anyway, looked them up on Wiki a minute or two ago, notice they had a US #1 hit off the album I own..."fly", cant recall ever hearing it???
listened to your link...I like it...
vocalist looks and sounds familiar, but I still cant recall them?
do you have the "floored" album by chance MH???
What Are You Listening To? - Music Head - 16-04-2016
^^
never heard the Floored album
don't remember the single although it was #1 here
just played it
very similar to the hits off of 14:59

I get like that sometimes also...ie: cant for the life of me figure out what I liked on an album to buy it...?!
while other albums keep growing on me over time...
when you figure it out (minus THC) let me know will ya?

I put "floored" in the car today, it will get played a couple of times over the next week, then I will post it accordingly.

ive played it once...
they do a good cover of Adam And The Ants' "stand and deliver" on the album...
that Adam ant song would be in my list of favourite singles from the 1980s (that is, if I ever made a list)

SIA "1000 forms of fear" cd, 2014.
career stats:

singles................34
this album..................#1 AU...#1 CAN...#1 US....#5 UK...#4 NZ

"big girls cry".............#5 AU..#64 CAN...............#77 UK
"elastic heart"............#5 AU....#7 CAN..#17 US..#10 UK...#7 NZ
Aussie Sia's sixth album and the one that broke her to the worldwide market a couple of years ago...
I have her third album also..."colour the small one", which I don't like...
got this one on discount...
lots of electro-pop on here, much like the singles we all know...
a couple of really great tracks, but also a couple I hate...
never been a real an of her's, shes just too 'out there' and 'weird' in her video's and performances or my liking,
very 'arty',much like an antipodean Bjork, but at least Sia has a voice that is listenable...
an average album IMO, probably sold a lot more than it deserved, but im only one member of the record buying public
and millions obviously disagree with me...
I might just wait for a good compilation in the future...
BTW, my favourite track is a lot more guitar orientated than it is synth orientated...
that track could have been a P!NK song IMO...

GRANT-LEE PHILLIPS - The Narrows (released 18 March 2016)
![[Image: MI0004032247.jpg?partner=allrovi.com]](http://cps-static.rovicorp.com/3/JPG_400/MI0004/032/MI0004032247.jpg?partner=allrovi.com)
This is Grant-Lee Phillips' first album since moving to Nashville from California. Heâs right at home investigating his history which is a theme that runs through his other releases, reflecting, and singing it out, but not in an aggressive, angst ridden or blame-laying way; itâs more of a retrospective documentary affair (or at least thatâs how it feels to me). This is a highly intelligent singer/songwriter and musician who has consistently produced quality work right through from the Grant-Lee Buffalo days, and who has undoubtedly paid his troubadour dues. Apparently, heâs a great entertainer and has a knack for making people laugh; unfortunately, it seems his multiple talents are largely under-appreciated.
On this release, he once again faithfully pursues his own ideals and steadfastly follows an obvious vision, paying homage to his personal roots and to the greater landscape through which his life has been woven. Using a thoroughly contemporary medium and style, he has produced a comfortable, competent, earthy and assured album of the mostly Americana and alternative folk persuasion. Thereâs also a large dollop of country making an appearance (purists will disagree, Iâm sure), which usually isnât my thang â gonna have to have myself another spin or two to see whether or not it all takes root. That said, whether or not I will fully embrace this particular album is purely down to a question of my own taste, not a critique of the value of the work, and I will continue to make an effort to hear anything new he releases because I find both the character, and his music, compelling and unique; nothing less than a joy in this world full of mashup and beatz clones! Go Grant- Lee!
The immediate standout, for its lyric content, subject matter and sound is âCry, Cryâ. Phillips is of Cree ancestry on his motherâs side and both Blackfoot and Cherokee paternally, and he is a direct descendant of those who walked the Trail of Tears, which is what is referenced in this song.

MIDNIGHT OIL "diesel and dust" cd/vinyl 1987
career stats:
studio albums........11
singles..................39
this album.................#1 AU...#1 NZ...#19 UK...#21 US
singles:
"the dead heart"................#4 AU..#14 NZ...#62 UK...#53 US
"beds are burning".............#6 AU....#1 NZ....#6 UK...#17 US
"put down that weapon"....#32 AU...#9 NZ
"dream world"..................no chart action
the band's sixth and biggest selling album, 7 times platinum here in Australia...
as with the majority of their albums its songs follow a theme, conceptual if you will...
this one deals with the displacement of Australia's Aboriginal people from 'their land' for big business
and the effects on the land environmentally speaking...
personally, I don't side with their political messages, their views to me are those of leftist-extremists to say the least,
but hey, others believe in their political messages, that's their choice, we live in a democracy and free speech is a right here!
that said, they've made some very good songs over the years and a couple of them can be found on here,
the main problem I have with listening to their albums is that they try to force their ideology too much but that's okay too.
