1. Elephant [10]
2. Rootless Tree [9] 3. Coconut Skins [8] 4. Grey Room [9.5] 5. Me, My Yoke and I [8] 6. Accidental Babies[9] 7. Dogs [7.5] 8. Sleep Don't Weep[7.5] 9. Nine Crimes[7.5] 10. Animals Were Gone[6.5] Just because they're my favorites doesn't mean I think they are a better song! Which is why some rankings are out of order. Last edited by ancyuber; 10-29-2006 at 12:04 AM. |

I'm not up for the rating but I'll rank them
1 Rootless Tree 1 Elephant 1 The Animals were Gone 4 Grey Room 5 Me, My Yoke & I 6 Dogs (I really didn't like it at first listen, but...) 7 Coconut Skins 7 Sleep, Don't Weep 9 Accidental Babies 10 Nine Crimes and that does not mean I don't like Nine Crimes... it's just that I prefer the others over it. And the top three, I really love them all the same. |

it's always hard to play the ranking game, but here it is mine...
Needless to say that it will be changed within few minutes. 1. Accidental Babies 9,5 2. Elephant 9 3. Nine Crimes 8,5 4. Rootlss Tree 8 5. Me My Yoke And I 7,5 6. Grey Room 7,5 7. Sleep don't weep 7,5 8. The animals were gone 7 9.Coconut Skin 6,5 10. Dogs 6,5 Great album indeed, even if it takes more time to catch you than O, that was a very immediate record in my opinion... Many lovely songs, but you have to give them time. I'm a bit surprised by the minor presence and emphasys of the cello... or is it just an impression of mine? |

Why did he record Accidental babies so slow? It's like "Ok, say it... say it!" there is like a 5 seconds gap between each of the sentences...
I probably would have liked this version if I didn't hear the live version first... Ahh I'm so pissed off that I was expecting so much. Thanks for Sleep don't weep Damien... Cold Water-like, it's worth buying the CD. Last edited by DRQuebec; 10-29-2006 at 06:40 PM. |

listening party. aol... http://music.aol.com/songs/new_relea...s?defaultTab=7 I could never rank and rate, why? I Just enjoy all the fruits of Damiens Labor, ranking them seems odd to me. just my opinion though.

I wonder if Damien would have become that huge if '9' was his first album...

No! It's not crap at all. I just wonder if we all like the songs because we love Damien and we're already sold...
Seriously, I don't think I would still be on this forum 4 years after the release of his only album if this album was '9'... I mean, there's only one artist I follow and it's Damien, because 'O' touches me deep inside even 3 years after I knew him. But with '9'... I think he might have stayed a songwriter amongst others. I might be wrong. |
