Plucking sounds from a guitar                                         gently wonderful                                      simple

This was one of the songs that I would listen to at the tail-end of a relationship that was long long over — we were just hanging onto fumes. Listening to it now doesn't make me miss it at all but does oddly make me miss the way I used to feel then — like there was pleasure in the torture of a broken heart. Or maybe, fondness that I'm not broken after all.

Until this song I'd have joined you in that minority. This is the first Mazzy Star song which isn't an automatic Ho-Hum, perhaps because Hope Sandeval actually sounds awake on this song and not as if she's just necked a bunch of downers and needs to go bye-byes. 7 from the Nottingham jury.

This is a great album (the band's best of their small catalogue).  However, I think "I've Been Let Down" is a better introduction to this album.

"Happy" music always made me think more about suicide - e.g., The Carpenters, Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry Be Happy", disco-era BeeGees, etc.  I guess that's just me.

 
Amen to that! I tried explaining that to a good friend who used to accuse me of listening to "depri music", alas to no avail.

Hope Sandoval.  She sings as she looks.

The voice & style remind me of Kerstin Hersh - unluckily, for I grew tired of her.

Love this voice.  Also see Hope Sandoval Bavarian Fruit Bread.  Possibly even better than Mazzy Star.

I have never heard anyone say that.  Usually when you hear "______ Rules" it's like Black Sabbath or Metallica or somebody.  But Mazzy Star?

Lovely, from the soul, and haunting. This one may have pushed me over the edge to buy a Mazzy album.

Probably one of my desert island disks...very soothing, very calming. Good way to wind up the day. I don't know much about them, but I hope they/she will put out some more music someday.

Interesting to see this post. Hearing this, my mind thought of 9/11 but the only reason I can think why is because the guitar reminds me of a peice of music played in Michael Moore's film, im not sure though, anyone else thought similar or maybe know for sure?

I was a Mazzy Star fan back in the day. I saw Hope and the band a few years back, and (at least at the time) she was beautiful yet so ghostlike & detached that it detracted from her intrigue--- and caused me concern for her mental/physical health. :(

I can only imagine what that must have been like. This is a fantastic song.

Same, same and more sameness. All of her songs sound the same.

by "her' do you mean 'their'? It is a band, not someone named "Mazzy"

and obviously you haven't heard much by them if you think it is all the same.
