i could not find a lot of talk about Doves on ILM. i really enjoy this album and hope others have love for it as well...

will vote after listening to it again this week.

Love "Words", but this still has to be "There Goes The Fear". One of the singles of the noughties.

Geir OTM, yo

Words still my fav

― Evan, Wednesday, 16 September 2009 01:59 (seventeen years ago)

am thinking maybe either NY or CBTR

don't like this album much, and was a massive fan of 'lost souls'.

i do like 'the sulphur man' quite a bit though and think it's worthy of my vote.

bump

― Bee OK, Friday, 18 September 2009 05:23 (seventeen years ago)

Maybe one doves (one dove? nm, carryon) album is all you need? I got this one, later got "Lost Souls" and the one in the box with a DVD that had one hit, and um, didn't get into those.

But this one was the one.

― Mark G, Friday, 18 September 2009 08:35 (seventeen years ago)

i think i'll be the only one to vote for "m62 song".

― myndbloom, Friday, 18 September 2009 08:38 (seventeen years ago)

I like that one too.

― Mark G, Friday, 18 September 2009 08:40 (seventeen years ago)

voted that also

― unban dictionary (blueski), Friday, 18 September 2009 10:52 (seventeen years ago)

Sweet, good to know i'm not the only one.

― myndbloom, Friday, 18 September 2009 15:18 (seventeen years ago)

this still sounded pretty good to me. i have always loved "Words" and "There Goes the Fear." other songs that stood out were "M62 Song," "Satellites" and "Pounding." voting for "Caught By the River."

― Bee OK, Saturday, 19 September 2009 02:55 (seventeen years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

― System, Saturday, 19 September 2009 23:01 (seventeen years ago)

"Caught By the River," yeah, but I think the guitar hook on "Words" puts that over the top for me.

― ... (Pillbox), Saturday, 19 September 2009 23:11 (seventeen years ago)

This record seemed more diverse than the others (haven't heard Lost Souls yet, though). "There Goes the Fear" is a classic.

― musicfanatic, Sunday, 20 September 2009 00:23 (seventeen years ago)

"there goes the fear" ftw; this album not as consistent as lost souls (that would make an interesting poll) but plenty to love here. love all the ambient bits too

― skeletor, Sunday, 20 September 2009 01:47 (seventeen years ago)

i like Lost Souls a lot but don't think it has as many good songs as this album has.

― Bee OK, Sunday, 20 September 2009 05:40 (seventeen years ago)

I used to love driving across the Pennines on the M62 and so the M62 Song should have been a partial soundtrack ... but they let me down. Worst Doves song?

― djh, Sunday, 20 September 2009 18:59 (seventeen years ago)

so hard to choose between the last 4 songs.

― danzig, Sunday, 20 September 2009 22:55 (seventeen years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

― System, Sunday, 20 September 2009 23:01 (seventeen years ago)

lol silent majority

― alien vs the smiths (country matters), Sunday, 20 September 2009 23:06 (seventeen years ago)

the mumbling in the verse of 'there goes the fear' always puts me off. sounds like he's singing with a mouth full of boiled lollies.

'lost souls' has about 8 or 9 songs i love, seriously. i think it's far superior to this one.

― Charlie Howard, Monday, 21 September 2009 03:11 (seventeen years ago)

ten years pass...

This is absolutely destroying me this evening. I'd vote for Caught by the River or Satellites.

― Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Friday, 10 April 2020 18:59 (six years ago)

nice bump, i have not heard this record in such a long time. seems like a great time to play it again.

― Bee OK, Friday, 10 April 2020 23:00 (six years ago)
