Tracks You Tend to Skip
« on: August 31, 2007, 06:31:47 AM »
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.

Dark Light is the only song I wish they had never recorded. So I tend to skip it a lot.

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.

I Love You is great if you listen to it as first track, like on the finnish RR. And

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
