Peachie Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I know this has been covered before....but I have been listening to this CD today, again, and I LOVE Caroline No, Just Walk Away Renee, the whole cataloge. Beautiful. Very fluid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ira Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 "I Wanna Take Forever Tonight",Someone That You Loved Before","I Was Born To Love You",-not too shabby.It took me a while to appreciate this more adult-oriented music-I LOVE TEEN ANGST-but this is a very good-very endearing album IMHO-Ira.

Raspbernie Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I agree with all of the above. As far as I was concerned, Winter Dreams was an unexpected gift—something nobody was expecting—and I, for one, was really thrilled at hearing new music from Eric after such a long absence!Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angloberry Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 A great bit for me was the line in the song "Top Down Summer" that goes "Hey baby, the right time's finally here". Eric's voice and the structure of the song sounds to me just like he did on his first solo album. My copy of "Winter Dreams" does not have "Caroline No" on it as it is called IWBTLY instead. Therefore, another request for the jukebox sometime please Bernie? Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shaft Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 "Isn't It Romantic" still gets major airplay in my house. Love that flamenco guitar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'm with you....it's my favorite song on the CD, and I think they're ALL beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Hey, we need Marvin to keep things in perspective I remember the first time I heard the demo for "I Was Born To Love You"- I was totally blown away! I had that anticipation and yearning for new Eric music, just like in the good ol' days. Many months passed from that first hearing, but it was worth the wait Kirk.

Tony Cartmill Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I always thought the song "IWBTLY" was a bit too schmaltzy. Something Barry Manilow would get away with, and the blue hairs would eat it up. A decent song, but I cringe a bit on the high notes. Several other songs on WD I like better...Sincerely, Marvin-lite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzza Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Bernie... I dont mind if you succumb to pressure but bribery of chocolate fish???? She tries that with everyone. You'd think we owned the factory. We probably have invested enough in purchases to be a "fishy" shareholder <img border="0" alt="[blech!]" title="" src="graemlins/blech.gif" /> However I'll add my bit of pressure by just saying PLEASE, PLEASE... Oh, That's right, two means I'm grovelling. So.. if it works why not?? Muzza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mymooladi Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I love Winter Dreams and Eric's voice on it is just beautiful. I listen to it all the time and really totally it. I agree with Bernie, it was a wonderful gift for us fans. Thank you Eric again and again.June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
