she walks on this blog

My favorties of hers fluctuate tbh. I've followed her since i saw her video for Silnet All These Year as an MTV buzzclip and thought "wow she's amazing but the mainstream music scene is not ready for her." lol my wisdom at 13. I was a casual fan until Pele because I realized by then she was not going anywhere.

So for a long time my favorite album/era was Pele, because that was the tour I first saw her in concert, it was so feral and unhnged as an album while also being wildly baroque. I was obsessed. I was 17 and I felt fiery and unhinged.

Pele reigned supreme for a long time,until Scarlet walked into my life. I was an adult by then and the post-9/11 pain of that album just. Swept me away. It's probably still my favorite album although by a very small margin (see later). For the past ten years or so since I got sick and older "Gold Dust" has been my favorite song because life, the good part of life, really list like gold dust slipping between your fingertips. Enjoy the sparkle while you can. It's PROBABLY still my favorite

as for Era, from aesthetics, ADP. The Dolls were my everything and if any of the pop chicas pulls out a concept like that their fanbases would go fucking feral. Also my favorite show of hers I went to was that year (I got Isabella -- imagine the lucky people who got Pip!)

But as an album... lately it's been Choirgirl. like. I had a really hard time with this album when it was release in 1998, it's too painful, I was dealing with my darkest period of my life, had just had an abortion, and then this album about miscarriages came up and I had to stop back for a couple deades. Plus that was the worst tour I saw, the acoustics blew and I was surrounded by drunk people talking over her music. But Choirgirl is probably as perfect an album as it can get and if there is a favrotie song that is not "Gold Dust," It's "Hotel" for like totally different reaons lol Hotel is just AN ACHIEVEMENT
