I like it. "Evolve" is a great song. It is pretty good as albums go too. "Little Plastic Castle" is probably my favorite album also. Most Ani fans that I have talked to say the same. I'm a really huge fan of "Like I Said," though. It was the first Ani album I bought and is a great compilation of her early songs. "Imperfectly" is up in the ranks as well.
Re: "Pulse" and "IQ".
I agree with you. I love "Loom", and really would rather "Pulse" wasn’t tacked on to the end. "Pulse" is such a strong song on its own and the feelings in both songs are entirely different. They just don't go together. I also like the original "Dilate", better.
I think we feel the same about Ani. I don't always agree with her politics either, but I like the way presents her views. Whether you agree or not, it is still great, original music. I like that she has an original sound too. Have you ever listened to her albums in sequence -- starting with her earliest and moving through to the latest? It is an interesting transformation. Not only does the music change (become deeper), but the lyrics do as well. Generally speaking, of course.
Oh, and I wouldn't put an 'I' statement into a title either.
