I am in love... I am a fool...

heidiFurther to my last post, I decided when I got in the car to go to the bank that I should bite the bullet and listen to my newly downloaded from itunes Finn Bros songs from the Everyone Is Here EP...
I've had then for a bit of time, now, but I haven't played them because I've been terrified. I've lost faith in bands before - everything but the girl broke my heart in 1998 when they went techno and abandoned the acousitcs and orchestrals I fell in love with, and I admit that I did not love Neil Finn's last album, One Nil.
But I am in love, again. In love with it all and crying stupidly and desperately with love for their voices and their music and their wonderfulness, and my God it's been 22 years since I fell for Neil Finn and he still makes my head spin.
So that's the question of the moment. Has a band ever broken your heart by not living up to their prior brilliance? Have you fallen out of love with a musician or even been too afraid to listen to something new? What did you do? And when you listened, did you swoon? Did you cry out of love or misery?
