For some reason, absolutely everything The Lord releases is a grower to me. I even kinda love 'Welcome to New York' now.
Mess, Welcome to the ER is the only track I don't like from 1989 so far. I'm trying hard but it's just not working for me. The lyrics on the verses are good, but she is just singing way too damn high for her voice. I don't understand why an experienced producer like Tedder couldn't get her sounding as great as she does on OOTW.

Like Robyn said, it's kind of an atmosphere thing. The atmosphere she has in the song just make it enjoyable and likeable (for me). You kinda get how much she loves NYC.

Hmm, maybe. I'll probably enjoy it more in the context of the whole album. I even manage tolerate BTR when listening to Preach Now from beginning to end

Word on the street is BIG EYES is a bust and Amy Adams will be hard-pressed to land that Oscar nomination everyone assumes she will get...
Poor Amy! Is this what Nicole wanted us to pray over?
In the hopes of getting Thornton’s exhaustive explanation out into the world, so that the actor can go on living his life, we’ve included it below. (Hat tip to the Hollywood Reporter for providing a transcription of the entire discussion here.)
Vial of blood is very simple. Angie came home one day with a kit she bought which is a. . .You know those lockets you buy that are clear and you put a picture of your grannie in it or something like that and wear it around your neck? That’s what it was. She bought two of those. We were apart a lot because she's off making Tomb Raider and I'm making Monster’s Ball. We were on opposite ends, we see each other for two weeks and whatever. She thought it would be interesting and romantic if we took a little razorblade and sliced our fingers, smeared a little blood on these lockets and you wear it around your neck just like you wear your son or daughter’s baby hair in one. Same thing. From that we were wearing quart jars of blood around our necks. [Laughter] And we were vampires and we lived in a dungeon.
