Liesje Sadonius, la prima voce ufficiale degli Hoover.
Il trip hop e le sue atmosfere dilagano in tutta Europa durante la seconda metà degli anni ’90, così anche dal Belgio qualcuno lancia il sasso. Frank Duchene e Alex Callier si occupano della tessitura elettronica, mentre la chitarra che saltella tra un beat e l’altro viene affidata a Raymond Geerts.
Lo spettro del dream pop di qualche anno antecedente reclama tributo durante tutto il disco, soprattutto in episodi come Someone. L’animo più rock ma al tempo stesso seducente di Nr.9 crea la pluralità che non guasta, nonostante negli anni successivi la band preferirà un approccio più orchestrale.
Maxisingolo di lancio nel mercato e nella colonna sonora di Stealing Beauty è 2Wicky; lenta avanza proprio come Sarangi a dispetto della marcata marcia in più che spetta a Barabas col basso onnipresente a sorreggere il clima.
I cambiamenti radicali gli Hoover ce li hanno a inizio carriera, con il cambio di nome per evitare azioni legali da parte di altri artisti, con la dipartita di Duchene e della stessa voce così fondamentale. La volontà di non strafare e non abbandonare la propria terra per affrontare il tour in America farà si che lo scettro passi alla ben più nota Geike.
Ma il disco possiede abbastanza impatto sonoro da essere annoverato tra le migliori produzioni di quel decennio, senza dubbio.

Water falling down a hundred meters
Coloured by the sun
In rainbow colors
Paul is driving me around
Through fields of light
Blinded by the sun
Fight the clouds
Be an inhaler
Have no doubts
Let them take you on a voyage to another
Let them take you on a voyage to another
Let them take you on a voyage to another...

As I was saying, stereo is full of surprises
A new stereophonic sound spectacular

We're able to tell, in an instant, where a particular sound is coming from
A new stereophonic sound spectacular X5

You better be sure before you leave me for another one
You can hurt me
I can (can't?) hurt you
You can... hurt me

Tell me baby where did you sleep last night
I heard noises in the cupboard were you trying to hide
Because you should know
How much I hate this
If you were I'll hit your hidingplace
Until sunrise
And I'm falling in love
And I'm falling in love
Cause I need your loving
Everyday and every night
And I'm falling in love
Tell me baby where did you sleep last night
I heard noises in the cupboard were you trying to hide
Because you should know
How much I hate this
If you were I'll hit your hidingplace
Until sunrise
And I'm falling in love
And I'm falling in love
Cause I need your loving
Everyday and every night
And I'm falling in love
04 Plus Profond (04:25)
It enters your veines
It enters your soul
It tries to obsess you
It looks for defaults
Try not to lose not to lose control
Try not to lose not to lose control
It tries to destroy you
It tries to tear you down
Am I lost lost in your backyard
Feel the pain
Yellow takes over
Yellow takes over
Yellow takes over
Try not to lose Not to lose control X4
C'était toujours la même chose tu sais
J'étais dans une capsule
Et après quelques semaines
Repeat all
(Repeat end many times)
06 Cinderella (03:52)
Clouds, herbs and art
Rotating love through time
Tears after overkill
Reversing all my love
Clouds, herbs and art
Rotating love through time
Tears after overkill
Reversing all my love
Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
Aunque las cosas no le van demasiado bien
Separado de ella por las quatros a& ntilde; os
Ve a sus hijos los fines de semana de cada mes y quince dias en vacaciones
Pero el sólo no consigue encontrar a la mujer de su vida
Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
07 Nr 9 (03:40)
Saw her first a few months ago
Spacing in Vienna - Oversea cargo
Saw her in the mirror
She has a stupid name
Maybe I'm too honest
Friendly in an arrogant way
Saturday evening she gave me her number
I've lost it already she awakens my hunger
Saw her in the mirror
She has a stupid name
Maybe I'm too honest
Friendly in an arrogant way
Saw her first a few months ago
Spacing in Vienna - Oversea cargo
Saw her in the mirror
She has a stupid name
Maybe I'm too honest
Friendly in an arrogant way
08 Sarangi (04:18)
Suffocate your love
In a barrel full of doubt
Suffocate your love
North east and south
Here I stand
In front of your imagination
Here I stand
Hesitate, It's normal
You can't erase mistakes
Hesitate, It's normal
I can't keep awake
Here I stand
In front of your imagination
Here I stand
Come closer
It's you I want to embrace
Come closer
It's you I want to debase
Here I stand
In front of your imagination
Here I stand
09 Someone (04:11)
And through all Alex's wondrous
Childhood he would honour and obey
Love and watch the lovely maiden
On whose gentle arms he just lay
All men all must be mild obedient
All men all must be mild obedient
As good as he
And through all Alex's wondrous
Childhood he would honour and obey
Love and watch the lovely maiden
On whose gentle arms he just lay
All men all must be mild obedient
All men all must be mild obedient
As good as he
And All men all must be mild obedient
And All men all must be mild obedient
And all ....
10 Revolver (03:58)
Small groove thing invades my veins
Soul deserts and leaves this chain
Here she's coming to me
Revolver excludes this community
Small groove thing take off my chains
Hoover will soften my pain
Here she's coming to you
Floating on a white caribou
Small groove thing invades my veins
Soul deserts and leaves this chain
Small groove thing take off my chains
Hoover will soften my pain
Here she's coming to me
Revolver excludes this community
Here she's coming to you
Floating on a white caribou
11 Innervoice (04:34)
Fear is talking
In my head consulting
But my innervoice it says
That I'm falling, I'm falling
Could you be the pillow
That solves this problem
Sometimes I want to
Close my eyes and trust you
But my innervoice it says
That I'm falling, I'm falling
Could you be the rock
That solves this problem
