Sweet!

I think Amplified Heart is my favorite of the last 3, then Temperamental, then Walking Wounded. Idlewild is my favorite overall, then this is 5th best. That ranking could change though because I've been really drawn to Temperamental in particular lately and listening to that one most.

My ranking is



1. Language of Life

2. Idlewild

3. Temperamental

4. WW



But I have them all at 5, this is just preference as of recent. Those 4 are very interchangeable given the right time.

You all think Temperamental and WW are better than Amplified Heart? I thought that was generally considered the fan favorite; has their most consistently emotional and blissful compositions imo, just like Idlewild.

I've actually been thinking of doing an Everything But the Girl discog review at some point... so many damn albums of theirs that have never been reviewed on here, and they deserve the writeups

For sure. I'm in a bit of a creative draught right now, but once I get the inspiration again, I'll start their discog :]

This is chock full of lovely ditties but I don’t quite think it touches the big three starting from Amplified

There is a review, nice!



I'm listening to Walking Wounded (not this... yet) and my word it is right up my alley



honestly pretty wild that I'd never heard a lick of their discog before today thinking about it, not sure how they escaped my clutches until now

Amplified, Walking and Temperamental are so good. Language of Life too - that’s my dark horse pick.

amusing that I thought a track from Walking sounded like that "deserts miss the rain" song... oh wait they also WROTE that song, lol



...wondered why I'd heard of this band, probably wasn't the internet for once. That song was pretty big!

Language of Life might be the first one I'm lukewarm on. Early days but...



Wounded > Temperamental >> Amplified >>> Language



(in retrospect I could've just perused the genre tags and gotten the same result without listening to anything lol... I should learn from my own predictability sometime)

Language is masterful at what it does but you really need to be into sophistipop/yacht rock for it to work.

Exactly. I was always gonna gravitate towards the big three and Wounded / Temp in particular. Then again, maybe I can change?
