Good album would be "Brandenburg Gate" and "Junior Dad" along with the ILM versions of "Little Dog" and "Pumping Blood."

The biggest problem is that it's front loaded with the worst songs, scaring people off from even attempting the much superior tracks on the second disc. I mean I still fucking hate "Brandenburg Gate" and totally get why someone would be all, "fuck if I'm going to sit through 11 and 20 minute long songs of this shit".

― papa smango (fadanuf4erybody), Monday, 28 October 2013 06:55 (ten years ago) link
"Brandenburg Gate" is my favorite song on the album. but i can see the argument that that and especially "The View" kind of confirmed some negative assumptions some people had about the project where the record opening with other songs might've made it more accessible to some critics. but not sounding eager to please is part of LULU's greatness imo.
― some dude, Monday, 28 October 2013 09:31 (ten years ago) link
really love that they saved the best riff on the album for the second-to-last song
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 28 October 2013 12:47 (ten years ago) link
I love Lou's lyrics on "Brandenburg Gate", but James' "small town girl"s really ruin it for me. I just think that one represented the worst of what Metallica brought to the table (see what I did there?) and ruined what could've been one of the better songs.
― JACK SQUAT about these Charlie Nobodies (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 28 October 2013 14:21 (ten years ago) link
I can go back to this record and my feelings of "Am I really hearing this?" are as intense as the first day it came out, if not more so now that Lou is gone.

A little off topic, but Laurie Anderson plays Junior Dad live at most of her concerts. If anyone is on the fence of seeing her live, its worth it just for that.

She played it again in LA last night, but cut off the recording before "get the coffee / turn the lights on / say hello to Junior Dad," which for me was always the climax. Still deeply moving, though... and I love that she recognizes the power of this in-some-ways absurd song from this in-many-ways absurd project.
