Yep, I agree. Because I heard one song for the first time,
I downloaded a bunch of her songs. Incredible stories,
incredible depth, apparently much too scarey for
some souls on this forum. Her lyrics are poetic.
Thanks RP.

Hold on, Babalooie! I thought F*ing songs were meant to be played while one F*s. If so, then this is a fine example! Does it follow that if someone does/does not like F*ing songs ...

That distribution defines a troll? Really? That probably resembles *my* distribution. I tend to only vote songs I like - meaning 7~9 and the very rare 10, AND the songs I really, really hate meaning a 1. Mediocre tunes don't inspire me to go to the computer to vote - or even to go to the computer to discover who the artist might be...

It's not the distribution of the ratings, in this case - it's the comment. Gleefully, remorselessly hateful - with profanity. I'm sure my rating distribution is nothing to write home about, but at least I don't go through a particular artist's playlist and methodically post the same hateful, juvenile slam on every single song by that artist. To me, that equals "troll."

I gave it a 1 too, but I have hundreds upon hundreds of 8-10 ratings as well, what excuse have you got for me? Could it be that some people dislike this band, don't you think that is a possiblity???? {#Rolleyes}

It wasn't the rating. It was the TONE. I"ve given my share of "1" ratings (most of which I don't post), and everyone is entitled to their opinions. Using abusive language to state an opinion is, in my opinion, TROLL. sirdroseph, I have no excuse for you, but I love you anyway. {#Lol}

The difference is in how he expresses his dislike. He posted the same vulgar comment for all of her songs; that is spammer-like, boneheaded troll behavior. At least you try to vary your critical comments.

Thanks, peter_james_bond. I hadn't verified t00lur's history. And I rather love sirdroseph's comments. Geez, I should stop posting. Too much stress.

Not always a fan of hers, but I just had a delicious Indian lunch, and this seems like the sonic equivalent of a good curry - rich and full, some contrast, more than the sum of its parts.

Sounds a bit like Portishead in parts. In case that's not obvious, that's a Good Thing(tm). I don't think she's trying to sound like Portishead, my brain just has to compare it to a song I've heard before. Maybe if I hear this enough, I'll say Portishead sounds like Vienna Teng. :-)

To me, this is rather un-ordinary, and I love it. It certainly fits in with the mood Bill has created, of layers of powerful female vocals with varying flavors. Even Tori Amos's cover of a Nirvana song fits well in this set. {#Meditate}

I tend to agree. Personally, I find it very hard to rate anything a '1' - partly due to the fact that I couldn't do any of this stuff myself.
