Klou 2,414 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I seriously cannot believe all the people in the "Worst album you've heard in awhile?" thread calling Halcyon the worst they've heard. It's such a beautiful album... I can see how it wouldn't be someone's cup of tea, but to call it the worst? Umm no. I get the feeling they're doing it out of spite and probably haven't even listened to it in full. I just got my Halcyon boxed set in the mail Congrats! :party: Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HausOfHarlow 378 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 WTF?? Halcyon is far from even decent! I fear for their hearing condition Honestly you have GOT TO BE KIDDING. Anyone with ears can hear that it is at least decent. I personally think it is one of the best albums of the year. After listening to ALL 20 TRACKS, you may realize there is quite a variety to choose from. She has some of her alternative sounding songs, she also included some more upbeat songs, and she has some of her incredible ballads. Plus she even did 2 covers of songs on the album. Listen to all the songs, at least two times each. Sure. There are a few fillers, but what album doesn't? It really is such a good album. It's just not so mainstream and doesn't have the commercial success of others. 1. Don't Say A Word 2. My Blood 3. Anything Could Happen 4. Only You 5. Halcyon 6. Figure 8 7. Joy 8. Hanging On 9. Explosions 10. I Know You Care 11. Atlantis 12. Dead In the Water 13. I Need Your Love 14. Lights (Bonus Track) 15. Ritual 16. In My City 17. Without your Love 18. Stay Awake 19. The Ending 20.

HausOfHarlow 378 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 It is flaw-free tho Almost on the level of TFM for me Agreed. I may say as of now I like it better than TFM (don't kill me!!) (only because I've overplayed TFM too much and Halcyon is newer) but it is just soooooooo good! My favorites: Don't Say A Word, My Blood, Halcyon, Figure 8, Hanging On, Explosions, Dead In the Water, I Need Your Love, In My City, Without Your Love, High For This, The Ending. You?

The only album that will ever be better than TFM for me in BTW and MAYBE ARTPOP. But I agree, about a week ago when I downloaded Unapologetic, I was like "OMG this is the best album ever!!", but now it's just good. :confuse: My favorite song is Halcyon I love Figure 8, My Blood, Only You, Atlantis, Ritual, In My City, Without Your Love, High For This and I Know You Care, but they're all flawless.
