The Magnetic Fields - i
I saw Stephin Merritt play live in Hamburg one day, and this album was released on Warner in Germany where I released my last solo album at the same time. I was very impressed by the guy’s voice, I was very impressed by this album and the clear voice. I wish I had that kind of voice! It’s so much easier to transport music if you have a voice like Brian Eno or Stephen Merrit. It’s very emotional, and I think at the time it really hit me. There was an echo in my emotional system that connected to those songs very much.
