I think still their first, Everybody's doing it why can't I. Still they never did anything less that great work, so none I would say I dont really like.
Dolores O'Riordan's 1st solo album was good, I liked it, I have the second album (yes downloaded its not out for a few weeks) and so far its barley worth a listen so far, compared to her 1st album. May have to buy it soon as she may tour this album and I will go see her and need the album to get signed haha

Which album?
Aerial a bit bland sadly.
Mind you I will admit I have rarley heard it since it came out, only a few times. So in theory all them songs may need a bit more playing to get into them, I just found not one song jumped out at me and I never went wow!, good work.

I thought that's what Gas meant but since when does using capitols mean an acronym? By that token Gas's entire signature is a long acronym :D.

There isn't much difference unless you mean the Unplugged version?

If you prefer the first. I'd get her to sign that. I've pre-ordered it. I'm happy to wait until the CD arrives.

Yeah that one's a lot more subdued than her others, my favourite album of hers is The Dreaming, which is also her most crazy, followed by The Sensual World.

I love one of the songs near the end, where she's duetting and the guy says one of the words in a funny way. Furtado breaks into laughter. You can so tell it's "for real" and they decided to keep it on the album.

Brad I mean the one that isnt the Tin Tin Out/radio remix and has less drums (I think). Is that what you mean by Unplugged?
No one will comment on my choices? ;)

No I don't think you do. The Unplugged one is erm. Unplugged. Whereas I reckon you mean the Original version before it got "Tin Tin Out" remixed. There is little between the Original and that Remix IMO, except to maybe make it more polished.

The Original version features on their debut album, the remix on the re-release of Talk on Corners, the silly blue version. It was added as it's the best song from their debut.
