Poe - Hello album cover | |||||||||||||||
Hello is an album by American singer/songwriter Poe, released in 1995. The album was called "innovative" by critics due to its incorporation of R&B samples into an electronic soundscape, something that was fairly unheard of at the time. The first music video for the album was for the single "Angry Johnny"; it featured Poe on the skeletal frame of a bed looking forelorn whilst destroying a variety of effects one might associate with romance (like roses or a box of chocolates.) The song's rage filled lyrics quickly found her being lumped into the "angry female rocker" category, and the video was heavily played on MTV's Alternative Nation. The second single "Hello" did not fare as well until a remix version was released two years after the album's initial release.
The album is also notable for featuring one of the first major-album productions by late Hip-Hop producer Jay Dee on the song "Fingertips". After being dismissed by her record label, Poe fought to reclaim rights over the audio-masters to this album, and successfully reissued it on an independent label in 2005.
