Before you answer, I know exactly where I was...

The year was 1995 and when not jetting to DJ dates, I was to busy keeping up with Billboard Club and Mixmag charts.

Just sat down to fully absorb this album over the weekend and I must say goddamn... what a magnificent talent.




I actually lived down the street from a small club in Orlando where he toured for this release. Could have gotten in free but I passed

You kinda look like him...

I worked at Camelot Music when the Hardline was introduced and I had full dreads which they made me wear back in a ponytail... I got that all the time

--- wow ... thats a neat story ...

i always wished i had seen TTD on this tour ... or ... the HARDLINE tour ... i was in germany in 87 and he wasnt popular in the US (yet) but he was very popular in europe ... and i had chance of seeing him ... but i waited ....

finally saw him last yr in NYC and he is a talent ... his voice is like ... that voice that every guy wishes he had !

I picked up this album my freshman year in college, and listened to it non stop while I was working on my art projects for class. It completely blew me away, I think the people in the dorm rooms next to me were getting sick of me playing it,.

Hahaha.

Arsenio opened a show with the video to "She Kissed Me," and I was just like: "DANG! T's back."

I was in London in a little record shop in Hanway Street when me and my boyfriend saw a promo CD single of "Holding On To You " that was released prior to the Vibrator album. We both couldn't believe our eyes when we saw the new haircut . Of course I bought it and little did I know that I was just byuing a CD of my favourite song ever from my favourite album ever . Though I must confess that I didn't like the song when I first heard it. I just took me some time to really get how brilliant the whole Vibrator album is !

I left the east side for a west coast beauty
A girl who burned my thoughts like kisses
She was down by street decree
She swore she'd pull my best years out of me
Fat painted lips on a live wire beauty
A tangerine girl with tambourine eyes
Her face was my favourite magazine
Her body was my favourite book to read

They say that all poets must have and unrequited love
As all lovers must have thought provoking fears

But holding on to you means letting go on pain
Means letting go of tears
Means letting go of rain
Means letting go of what's not real
Holding on to you

I left the rough side for a seaside baby
A chamomile smile that pouts on cue
For every moment I breathe her sigh
Her bosom contains my sweet alibi
In an emotional mist she breathes in fog
And breathes it out as garden flowers
Why me of all the tough talking boys?
I guess she heard my heartbeat through the noise

They say that all poets must have an unrequited love
As all lovers must have thought provoking fears

But holding on to you means letting go of pain
Means letting go of tears
Means letting go of the rain
Holding on to you
Means letting sorrows heal
Means letting go of what's not real
Holding on to you

They say that all poets must have an unrequited love
As all lovers I'm sure must have thought provoking fears

But holding on to you means letting sorrows heal
Means letting go of what's not real
Holding on to you

I left the east coast for a west coast beauty
A woman who burned my thoughts like kisses
She was down by street decree
She swore she'd pull my best years out of me

Fat wet lips on a sea salt canvas
Goodbye Picasso hello Dolly/Dali
The soil is fertile where her footsteps trod
She's my new religion she's all I got

They say that all poets must have an unrequited love
As all lovers I'm sure must have thought provoking fears

But holding on to you means letting go of pain
Means letting go of tears
Means letting go of rain
Means letting sorrows heal
It means letting go
