All Saints - Red Flag

[xtophermorrison]

Never Ever and Booty Call me are the two songs I listened to and I stopped them both half way. Didn't enjoy them.

Pure Shores is nice. It sounds familiar to me, not sure where from.

Well, in all fairness Never Ever (while amazing) is about 2.5 minutes too long. I never appreciated Booty Call when I was younger, but I absolutely love it now.

It's a booty call. It's a BOOOOT-aaaaayyyy.

The spelling of it as "Bootie Call" makes me cringe for some reason. A lot.

The song knocks, though.

All Saints were the ultimate singles act when they started out. Never Ever, Pure Shores, Black Coffee are all flawless, and the best songs of the years they were released in. The quality of the parent albums dive off a cliff once you get past the classics unfortunately.

 

[maverick_79]

Down to 20 in the midweeks. Which sucks a little.

 

[Hitchcock]

Oh well, it was bound to happen. If it had debuted at #20, a few weeks ago we'd all have been pleased and relieved. It did so well to get to #3 last week!

I wonder when we will get to hear the 80's cover?

I hope they have some more promo this week to give the album a little nudge back up the charts.

I Know Where It's At, Under The Bridge, Lady Marmalade and War Of Nerves are amazing tunes.

I disagree. I think Saints and Sinners in particular is a very strong album - there's not a bad track on there for me. It's all subjective I guess.

To me, it was always somewhat of a soundscape. An album to listen to fully and appreciate as a work of art where the songs all run into each other.

'Bootie Call' is kind of amazing, though. You need to listen to 'Black Coffee'.

'Pure Shores' might be recognizable from err.. Ray of Light Madonna (William Orbit) or The Beach.

Also, you need 'Dreams' in your life.

I can't wait, I need a good listen through the old material as I haven't for so long. Perfect excuse.

Who is singing the 2nd verse on 'Tribal'? Is it Shaznay and someone else? I want to say it's Mel, but the voice is super deep.

Yes its Shaznay and Mel singing it, just like they sing the first verse too.

 

[Mr.Arroz]

Tribal is my ultimate favorite.

Tribal is my ultimate favorite.

Tribal has grown on me so much. I love it now.

 

[xtophermorrison]

Tribal is so good!

 

[Lapti Nek]

Black Coffee always grabs me. Always. It has the most gorgeous chorus.

Without any doubt.

I'm 23 and Saints & Sinners was the second album I ever bought.

Mine was 'One Touch', and not a day goes by when I don't feel Keisha's blessing.

 

[Mr.Arroz]

I think this is their best/most cohesive album, too.
