Opinions on Nelson After the Rain Bonus trax

Recommended Posts

"Too Many Dreams" is the greatest Nelson song across their entire discography. I'd highly recommend tracking it down.

I have both bonus tracks, and while they are both good NOT the best Nelson song ever.

Yes, "Keep One Heart" is just okay, nothing spectacular. If you're going to buy the Japanese pressing, it's all for "Too Many Dreams"

No, no, NO! I will NOT be suckered into buying this bloody album again!

How can you say "no" to this?

Those are some nice hooker boots they have on in the first pic, now I remember why I hated these guys in high school. :lol: Granted I really enjoy the After The Rain disc now in my old age.

Yep 'Too Many Dreams' is a great song and should have been included on the main album imo.

 

Not in the place of Desire though - I love that track.

 

 

Really? That's the only song I would boot off the album. Maybe their worst song ever imo.

I'll have to agree with Glen as I too quite like Desire. IMHO After The Rain is one of those perfect albums, like High N Dry or Slide It In, every song is perfect and the album plays front to back without a miss...

 

I do like those "bonus" tracks and agree that Too Many Dreams could easily have been on ATR and fit the mold perfectly.

'Too many dreams' is definitely better than most the album. And I agree with Jarred, 'Desire' is pretty awful. Along with 'More than ever' and 'Fill you up.' And 'Will you love me?' Like I have always said, there's as many fillers on this disc as killers. Massively over-rated CD, but the good songs make up for the rubbish. :)

Will you love me is the best song on the album. Are you being serious or fucking w/ me???

I think he's saying it's shit.

 

But he's also saying More Than Ever and Fill You Up are also shite (I think??) which is mofo crazy speak.

 

Fill You Up is one of my fav tunes ever and a bona fide classic song.

 

Also one of the best songs I have ever seen performed live - pure bliss!

Just had to listen to these 2 again to check I'm not going mad.

 

Thankfully my marbles are still intact - both classics just as I remembered.

 

Amazing verses, choruses and solos (esp fill you up)

 

It's what I listen to music for.

Yeah, sorry dudes, I think all 4 of those songs are massive fillers. Just really tacky, poppy fillers. I will say, though, the pre-chorus on 'Will you love me' is as good as anything on the CD, but the chorus is terrible. :(

 

For the record, I pretty much hate the chorus for 'I can hardly wait' too. But the rest of the song is pretty damn good.

  • 2024 HH Donation Drive

    Please support Heavy Harmonies! The donations goal is the out-of-pocket expenses to run the main site and this board for calendar year 2024.

    Donate Sidebar by DevFuse

    • Sorry my donation is small, but you know my circumstances Done It will be under name Andrew Sharp  
    • Well... I mean... it's true.   Time once again to nag/beg/plead/insult (wait, what?) to help out covering Heavy Harmonies' expenses. Costs for the site run roughly US$195 a month, roughly the same as last several years.  So when I say "costs", what do I mean? It's the out-of-pocket expenses to keep Heavy Harmonies running: server lease, bandwidth, hosting support, and the subscription for this forum software, domain registration. The 2023 drive did pretty well, reaching 83% of goal of covering the annual costs. Let's see if we can meet, or better yet, beat that goal! The donation drive will run through Halloween, October 31.   Anyone who makes a single donation of $20 or more and has a board username will be added to the group "2024 Donors". This gets you the following benefits: A nice shiny icon in your profile showing that you are an HH Donor for 2024:  An increase in the size of your PM storage from 200 to 500 messages An increase in image attachment/upload storage from 20MB to 50MB Exempt from the search flood control (normally if you try and do a search more than every 10 seconds, you get an annoying little "please wait" message) No time limit on editing your own posts! This will especially be useful for those with trade/sale lists as you'll be able to edit them rather than posting revised versions. A warm fuzzy feeling inside that you are helping support Heavy Harmonies! If you donate $50 during the drive, either as a single donation or across multiple donations, you will be added to the group "2024 Gold Donors". This gets you the following in addition to the above: A bigger, shiny badge:  All your posts will be highlighted, because if you show this much dedication to HH, what you have to say is obviously more more important! (just kidding, but your posts will be accentuated). The ability to create a forum "signature" that will be added to all of your posts. If you donate using buttons on the main site, please put your board username in the notes section, and if you donate from here on the forum, please PM me the email address that you sent the donation from! Otherwise I have no way to tie your donation to your membership here on the board. If you are currently in the 2023 donor groups but don't wish to donate this year (or can't), at the beginning of the donation drive, your group membership features will revert to the regular non-donator membership group. Membership in the 2024 Donors group will last until the beginning of next year's donation drive, at which point you can donate again to remain in the Donors group with the same benefits, or revert back to your current member group. PayPal donation buttons are found at the top of all the pages on the main site and here on the forum on the right side at the top, or if you'd prefer to send a money order, check, or cash (not recommended, but I know some people prefer to do so), you can make payable to Dan Harding and send to: Heavy Harmonies P.O. Box 17021 Urbana, IL 61803 USA If you can't give $20, give $10... if you can't give $10, give $5... it's just once a year. (And if you happen to be fortunate enough to be earning gobs of money, please feel free to give bunches! I'm not opposed to having a sugar daddy... or seven.) As always, your support is greatly appreciated! -Dan
