who else think that the DTP albums can easily represent the four elements?

Ki is water. its very flowy, and also very human. The name of the song Coast helps defining this as water. the opposite of Addicted.
Addicted is fire. its allways Upbeat, without any slow parts.hyperactive and relentless, just like fire. the shortest album of DTP, just like the way fire is the "shortest" element. the opposite of Ki.
Deconstruction is earth.the chaotic side of earth-its full with earthquakes. its tough and metallic. also, the name of the songs Stand,Praise The Lowered and POTA represent earth. the opposite of Ghost.
Ghost is air. its dreamy and flowy. the whole album is full with flute, which represents air. also,the names of the songs Fly, Feather,Ghost and Monsoon represent air. The opposite of Deconstruction

I'd say Ki is more earthy, Addicted is air, Deconstruction is fire and Ghost is water. Ki has a very grounded feel to it for me, where as Addicted is incredibly upbeat, it 'soars' in many places. Deconstruction as fire seems quite obvious to me, as does Ghost for water. I mean, Infinite Ocean.

but ghost has 4 songs with air releated name, and only 1 song with water releated name. even the name of the album is air releated.

you could be onto something but i think you're reading too much into it. IF (a big if) they were related to the 4 elements, i'd incline to agree with you. (can't see how you would relate addicted to air or ki to earth, but i could also see ghost as water)

I just get a bit of a rolling ocean vibe with Ghost, anyway it's just a bit of fun. :D It's not like any fit perfectly.

They are all glittery unicorn farts to me. :3

If anything, Ki is earth, Addicted is air, Deconstruction is fire and Ghost is water. Just because.

What five albums do we have to listen to in succession to turn Devy into Captain Planet? Cos I'd totally do that.

If you look at the box set, the colors for each album certainly match this theme. Or something like that.

I would love to see Dev perform a gig as Captain Planet.

Ki is Geezer Butler.
Addicted is Tony Iommi.
Deconstruction is Ozzy Osbourne.
Ghost is Bill Ward.

These are the four elements I was taught as a kid :-)
