Is it the clouds ? - single out : Your own worst enemy

Post by BobbyBaliverne »

My thoughts on the new song :
Cute melody. Vocals are very central. Production is even clearer than on Corazones. Weird to hear Omar sing so clearly, when his voice is still not the most interesting or beautiful. Is its voice processed a lot ? something around 0:58 feels strange. Also that ending is coming way too soon, didn't expect that fade off so early.
I wonder if the whole album will follow that direction. Probably not my cup of tea if it does ! I felt the urgent need to go back to Nom de guerre after that lol

He's in full Corazones mode on this one. It feels like he's transcribed a therapy session.

Feel like with the excitement of the back catalogue getting reissued, I never proper gave this one the time I should have.
Definitely need to give it another listen, feel like I remember it being one of the more focused and cohesive Omar-vocal albums!
