This is pissing me off.
RE: Love & Theft - What is it you don't like about it? Music? Lyrics? Both?
*EDIT -Bad Co. - "Silver & Gold"
Since my favoUrite type of music has witty, sarcastic melancholic lyrics, I am at a loss.
After tracks like Tryin' To Get To Heaven and Not Dark Yet from TOOM, and Things have Changed from The Wonder Boys ST, I guess I was expecting more along those lines.
Any tracks/lyrics you recommend as a good starting point? As it stands, the disc is as worthless as an AOL 7.0 disc that I get in the mail every day.
Listening to Dylan - Oh Mercy
If you want to give it a second try, try these songs on the Love & Theft Album (I think this may be the witty sarcasm you are looking for from Dylan):
# 9. Honest with Me
# 2. Mississippi
#12. Sugar Baby
Tracks that are not the typical Dylan we are used to:
#3. Summer Days
#4. Bye And Bye
I enjoy the whole album music & lyrics. I think it is absolutely wonderful.
