Hey,
I just wanted to give you a major kudos for your spot on review of Hard Candy. I've had the record for about a week now and plan to review it this weekend. I've been listening to it on my DJ headphones for a week now and am blown away. Like you, I really do not like 4 Minutes and deleted it from my iPod as well. I think some of this album borders on brilliant and it's the best sequel she could have made to her first record. I, too, was a bit disappointed by how Confessions never really achieved what it set out to do. It was a very generic album. I think this is some of her best work. Also like you, I thought American Life was a great record -- minus the title track. I still can't get songs like "Nothing Fails" & "Intervention" out of my mind. I'm pretty much obsessed with the song "Incredible" and have sweet candy dreams about her performing it live on some awards show with Gwen Stefani. :) (It doesn't sound like it, but it's transitions remind me of Gwen's "Fluorescent.) Anyway, you really nailed this one on the head. If Confessions was Future Disco, this is Disco Funk Super Pop. My review will probably go up on Sunday on www.wherethereswil.blogspot.com . Your review is so close to what I'll be saying, I almost just posted a link to yours, but that would let my readers down.
Peace. Thanks, Will! Cheers, Aaron
