The Eye in Finland

Hello. Picked up The Eye for 22e from a local store. Digipak. Kind of high price, but it is the normal price. No wonder why people want get illegal copies instead. Someone said that the vocals are mixed at too high level. I remember thinking the same when I heard the mp3 demos at "www.yello.ch/yello_mp3/", but now the vocals are at the right level. Regards, Juhana

The sound is definitely there, more noticable towards the end of the track, but with the very low frequency bass, I believe it is part of the music. It is pitched around, oh, guessing, about 12kHz to 14kHz, and ringing, so not a pure sinewave, definitely more musical. I transferred the album to minidisc for portable listening but at normal speed, I have not tried LP2 or LP4 to see if that makes a difference. Has anyone broken their speakers with this album yet? I also listened in my car, I have a powered sub, and this album certainly tests the reproduction range, I thought Pocket Universe with its bass sequences pushed things, until now. (We're talking muisic here, not CD test disks!) Good album though, after a number of listens, it is definitely Yello.

list question
by Tasha 03 Dec '03

I was under the impression that our email addresses on this list are undisclosed - however I just did a search on AOL and found my name and email address plain as day... (a creepy guy from back in high school has emailed me, ewwwww) and this is the only way I can figure he found out... ... was I mistaken in my interpretation of our privacy of our email addresses? or am I still "challenged" as far as my computer and email literacy? I appreciate y'all's advice. I have enjoyed this list a lot.

I guess you have learn't not to buy from that place again. Luckily Jonathan put up nice copies of the booklet. I have just bought a copy of Leo Sonny boy-the video for which there is Yello music. Does anybody know what I can expect when it arrives? PaulO
