Fumbler's Café

In regards to all her material, what is your best album and your best song from it? My best is F.T.E. and with the song Fear. I think that when this album came out, all her energy was just pulled together and this made for this super album. This girl has alot of energy and she will not quit. God bless her.

It's a toss up between Solace and Fumbling, but I'll go with Solace at the moment.

Solace is the most raw (musically and vocally) she has ever sounded IMO, and I really, really love that. She was at the point where she was 'leaving' the past (Touch) and finding her voice (FTE and onward). It also includes my favorite Sarah song ever, I Will Not Forget You

It depends on the day, the phase I'm living at the moment. These days I'm between FTE and Afterglow, the songs I love are Wait, Plenty, Elsewhere, Hold On, Fallen, Stupid and Train Wreck. It's so difficult, well impossible, for me to choose only one....

i like surfacing and mirrorball

the songs on both of them helped me threw a really rough time and sarah was here to save me!!! what she was singning made perfect sense to what was happening.

I've been favoring Afterglow for the past couple of months. The album would be absolutely perfect if Push was excluded and another song was added.

Touch is my all-time favorite Sarah album. Steaming is the best song she ever wrote IMHO. It's up there among my top ten albums of all time which includes Kate Bush's The Kick Inside, Jeff Buckley's Grace, and Tori Amos' Little Earthquakes. It is a masterpiece and I listen to it more than any of her other albums. I can't really describe how much I connect with Touch, it's Sarah at the height of her artistry. Touch is simply high art. Solace is my next favorite Sarah album.

I remember when I was going through a really tough (totally screwed-up is probably the more accurate description) situation way back in college and Sarah sort of "saved" me too. Songs like Sad Clown, Shelter, and Elsewhere have done that job pretty well!

Some days ago someone said me that Sarah's songs are too depressing. Well, I think I'm a little suspect because I really love sad songs, I love to write sad songs and maybe that's why I'm so connected to Sarah, their songs can always relate to something I'm living or have already lived. The thing is that their songs make me feel better, they keep on saving me through the years, making me feel more normal, felling that at least someone feels like me. So I can say that she and her songs make me want to go on when I'm really down.

My favorite album is Surfacing, with "Sweet Surrender". I just love it!
Fumbling Towards Ecstasy comes close!
I hope her next album will be good: I'm always expecting great songs!
Still a few months: I hope it'll be worth the wait!

Hands down for me its Fumbling. I too love sad depressing songs because most times I can identify with them more.
