ethan woods I was 3 years old when this album came out, and my parents played it constantly. This whole album is childhood nostalgia to me, and listening brings me right back to that simpler time. To me, this is one of the greatest albums of all time. Favorite track: 1,000 Times.

#50 Wecord - As Found
by Fugu

supported by 9 fans who also own “Wallpaper for the Soul Expanded”

Jamais le printemps n'avait été aussi bien raconté, recomposé par un artiste d'un talent aussi profond que léger. Les morceaux s'enchainent comme autant de nouvelles où L'amour printanier est tapi dans les moindres recoins. Cet élan frais et naissant d'une nature verdoyante qui se réveille du plus profond de son désir. les fleurs et les senteurs qui explosent ici et là. Le vent léger et doux porté par la voix de Medhi Zannad. Une merveille. Java
