Even though there are no songs I really dislike by HIM, there are some tracks I tend to skip either from over-playing them or because something about them no longer hits me right. What about you?
For me it's:
Greatest Lovesongs: Don't Fear the Reaper...great song but it's kind of long and I tend to feel like listening to something I can hit and move onto the next.
Razorblade: Bury Me Deep Inside Your Heart...I can't put my finger on it. It might just be too boring? I don't know. And Sigillum Diaboli...something about the scratchy nature of it just kind of rubs me the wrong way most of the time.
Deep Shadows: Lose You Tonight...I think it's the opening. If I can get past that I'm okay. And Close to the Flame...I loved it and played it constantly when first I heard it. But anymore it just feels kind of boring to me.
Love Metal: This Fortress of Tears...I don't know what it is but I just never want to listen to this song anymore. Ever. If it comes on, I can sing along and be okay but basically, I will invariably skip it.
Dark Light: Dark Light...it's too sugary for me. The chorus is all right but I'm not big on the verses. And In the Nightside of Eden...something about this song just never struck me as HIMish. It always felt like the song was pretending to be something by another band. That and the staccato nature of it never really hooked me. By the end of it though, I always dig the part where Ville does the satan shit with his voice.
Venus Doom: I'm happy to say that none of the 7 sampled/released tracks have yet rubbed me the wrong way. I'm always happy to listen to any of them : D
-
I just can't stand When Love and Death Embrace.. I don't know why, even way back when it came out, I just couldn't stand it. Does anyone else find it anoying? Or is it just me? I guess everyones different. And I agree with TheHeartless about Close to the Flame :)
-
Close to the Flame is a bit dull and I don't tend to listen to all of Dark Light (album) I prefer to get random songs now and again.
The Thulsa Doom remixes and the cosmic pope jam Pretending tend to get skipped unless i'm in the mood but then what I skip always depends on how I'm feeling
-
When Love And Death Embrace - Ville repeating same five words again and again for 6 minutes is boooooring. AOR Radio Mix is the only version I can listen to.
Bury Me Deep Inside.... - another boooooring song.
One Last Time - I can listen to this one only from time to time, next song that is sometimes too slow for me. Especially after song energetic like Sigillum Diaboli.
Salt In Our Wounds - well, i just don't like it.
Beautiful - i've liked this song until I've heard Rock Version. Now I skip it.
Sacrament - It was bad choice to put this song after Soul On Fire ;)
Dark Light have only few songs that I like - Vampire Heart, Under The Rose, Behind The Crimson Door, and Play Dead. I skip all others :)
The other songs I skip are Sacrament Disrhythm Rmx, One Last Time Rockfield Madness, and Soul On Fire Rmx (I hate techno!)
From VD i like everything what I've heard. I have strong feeling that this will be my favorite HIM album.
-
The only ones I usually skip are "Don't Close Your Heart", "Heaven Tonight", "Dark Light" and "The Path".
Bare in mind though, I'd rather listen to the worst HIM song 10 times over listening to something else that sucks.
-
Here's what I skip:
Don't Close Your Heart
Stigmata Diaboli
The Cage
Death Is In Love With Us
and remixes particularly
-
Dark Light is the only song I wish they had never recorded. So I tend to skip it a lot.
-
Close to the flame...
-
i like nearly all their songs - only one i can really think of that i dislike is dark light
-
The Funeral of Hearts, Beyond Redemption, The Sacrament, and most of Dark Light with the exception of Drunk on Shadows, Play Dead, In The Nightside of Edan, and the two bonus tracks.
-
I like the song, ill listen to it if I got the cd player on, buuuuuutttttt, if i'm on here I
Generally don't listen to Dark Light (the song,not the album)
-
When I listen to DARK LIGHT ALBUM I usually listen to the first six songs or from track 7 on...these album parts just don't fit so good together...but nervertheless, I like each song !!!
-
the title track frm dark light not sure y but it sounds 2 poppy 2 me
-
Pretty much all of Dark light, I haven't listened to that cd in a long time.....just never really enjoyed it much.
Don't Fear the Reaper, a little on the long side and it's just....i don't know, too slow for me for some reason
I Love You (Prelude to a Tragedy): It's kind of lost inbetween Wicked Game and Gone with the Sin, definitely a filler track.
Resurrection and Death is In love with Us: again, filler tracks that I just immediately skip over.
I like most of the remixes from Uneasy Listening, but not enough to listen to them constantly, they're just....well there on my listening list.
-
When Love and Death Embrace - this song never ends...
-
[...]

I Love You is great if you listen to it as first track, like on the finnish RR. And
-
there are only 3 HIM songs that really get on my nerves
When Love and Death Embrace, Close to the Flame, and Drunk on Shadows
-
Yeah I'm also not a huge fan of the slower songs, so I tend to skip When Love and Death Embrace, Close to the Flame, Sweet Pandemonium, Fortress of Tears (one of my least favourite HIM songs) erm.... Bury me deep inside your heart, dark light and play dead
-
Close To The Flame and Dark Light, I find both songs very boring.
-
Close to The Flame is good only in acoustic version.
(DSBH fans, don't kill me please ;) )
-
Deep Shadows: Close to the Flame
Love Metal: This Fortress of Tears...
Dark Light: Dark Light...
-
Don't fear the reaper
-
Remixes and anything over 7 minutes. I just can't sit still for that long
-
Love You Like I Do
Heaven Tonight
-
WLADE

close to the flame
this fortress of tears
dark light,drunk on shadows
WLADE is like it never ends....I like this songs,but I tried to not listen them in a long play-list....I don't know...
-
oh there is another one - buried alive by love - it's lame......
-
oh there is another one - buried alive by love - it's lame......
xDDD!!! yeahhh I think I forgot that song too...It isn't too nice for me....xDD!!
-
When Love And Death Embrace aarrrrrrg i hate this song >:(
-
What's with everyone's distaste for Dark Light (the song)? People say it's too poppy, well don't forget that pop is a integral part of HIM songs, especially in the chorus (you can't say it isn't, so). I personally love the song to death.
Anyway, moving on....
Gone With the Sin.....probably the only song of theirs I think is horrid (which is why I skip it every time).

i don't skip any tracks really, probably, bury me deep inside your heart,

-
I usually skip:

Wicked game(RR version) i just dont like the version at all.

Sometimes Razorblade kiss i think that song can get very boring at times

sometimes close to the flame just because it makes me depressed,haha
Fortress of tears - i really cant stand that song
From dark light when i actually first bother to put on that album i only listen to the first 4 tracks. I cant stand the others
-

I like the whole album, but not as much as DSBH
-
it's usually the singles that i've heard over and over that i skip. but it depends on the mood. like sometimes in the back of my head i just want heavier songs so i will play those. when i mellowing out, out come the slower paced tunes
there's no song that i hate. there's always a time and place for everyone of them
-
Mine have got to be -
Dark Light and Fortress of tears.
dunno why i just get bored of them alot.
-
GLV 666: Don't Fear The Reaper
RR: Heaven Tonight
DSBH: Close To The Flame

For You is not from And Love Said No.. unless you're talking about the vinyl box set but even then it's on the GLS vinyl.
-
Again it was a typo when love and death embrace is off and love said no and for you is off love metal I know this becuase I have it
-

-
Or you could not make typos just so you can reply ten times.
Say what you wanna say and be done with it.

dark light

Well for me it all depends on the mood. sometimes Im not in the mood to listen to,lets say, Join Me although it is one of my faves.
It never happened to me to regret buying a HIM album ever but when I bought Dark Light I was soo disappointed :-\. Didn't like it at all not even one track! but after listening to it more and more and keeping it on repeat eventually it grew in me and now I like it (not Love it, Like). My least fave on that album was (like most people) Dark Light (song) but now I like it and tend to listen to it and sing along.
All the songs are great IMO :)
BUT I do tend to skip WLADE a lot.
oh yes and I also sometimes skip the remixes of SOME songs..

Exactly, except for the WLADE and the Dark Light thing.
I think it's defenetly the weakest HIM Album but it also has some good songs
like Killing Lonelines, Under the Ros? and Drunk on Shadows
