You ever have a band that you fall absolutely in love with -- live and breathe it for days, weeks, months or even years....and then something happens, and you just don't buy that next album. it went from obsession to neglect.
mine was U2. i was so overwhelmed by them. Boy, to me, remains their shining achievement. I loved October, and the third record, and the fourth less so.
maybe it coincided with their rising fame, and it no longer came my special secret. i saw them a tiny club, but now i was forced to share them with millions, in arena settings.
also their songs got longer, more ponderous, and less hooky.
whats your example?
( i also felt this way about the police. and it also coincided with fame, so maybe its more about me than it is about them)
Thank God It's Friday and it's so nice to be back home in my own little cozy bed, with our kitties and our ridiculous amount of blankets that need to be sorted. 😀
