David Sylvian - Small Metal Gods [HQ]

[tak550]

A year ago, this video was being played at Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography. It caught my soul deeply.

there is this thing with "new", which of course means adaptive to how thing are in "reality" "now": it is purely and simply difficult, as opposed to habitual.

So it's been two months now since my last opinion of Manafon and I have to this...I went on a road trip and really gave the album a good listen. It was just me, the whirring of my tires, the road sliding away underneath me and this album and I came to find that it moved me. I listened to it in a way I don't listen to most albums. I was careful, I was cautious, it was soulful and I opened up and let it come in. It is a work that will stand the test of time and will create a space in your heart.

I have only listened to the album once. I have read a comment somewhere describing this album as challenging. I was hoping for something a tad brighter or more melodic but somehow, this song has sunk in. I cannot explain how or why, is it the sentiment, the voice?

When I am ready, I'll give the album another listen. I'm afraid to say it but I think this could really grab me.

Brilliant, Hiraki Sawa ! He, David,  surprises every time with a new album and the people he invites to contribute . And Yes! This time again.

I love David Sylvian, but I think Blemish and Manifon are rather self-indulgant.

I haven't heard all of Manifon as yet, but if this is the song they chose to make a video for first, I am betting that it isn't up to his usual standard...

Just out of curiosity, should music EVER be any other way? I will admit to struggling with both albums, but I suggest you continue to give Manafon a couple of more tries. It just may grow on you.

[klausdantes]

with the greatest respect, yes is a cute video....but what the hell has it got to do with the song?!

[indiareed]

I have received my copy of Manafon and I have to admit, I'm struggling with it a bit. This is an album that is going to take some time to create space in my heart. However, this is certainly one of my favorite songs from it. I never tire of listening to this. I'm excited to see how Manafon makes me feel in a month.
