I suppose we would need Susan's >permission to perform it. That might put the kibosh on the whole thing, >mightn't it? Sounds interesting, even though it's not technically being performed by list members. I'm mixed on whether we should keep it exclusive to just us contributing material. I'll leave that for the folks on the list to vote on. I don't think you need permission to perform the song in the aspect that you're describing, but checking with SW is always best. >Of course, if we COULD do it, I would invite any believers to attend both >the concert and/or the taping... if this comes to fruition. Of course, if we >DO do this, I wouldn't be able to get the recording to Kris until after the >24th... It'll take me awhile to put this all together, so if this idea is accepted I can give you a grace period on this one.

(I'm terrified to do a Susan cover) I would like to vote with the way the Dar group did it. My vote is based on the sheer magnitude of the project. It seems so huge otherwise. But Kris the folks that have volunteered their time should really have the final vote. They know what it will take for them to do 1 vs. 2 CD's. That's my thought.

My vote is in for working on the Susie covers CD first. Once we've completed that - we can take time to decide if we'd like to go on to the next step for those of us crazy writer types who wanna trade tracks. ;) Kris, I'll have my song choice in to you shortly. Will we run into any legal trouble if we record previously unreleased Susan tunes? Several of the songs I'm considering fall into this category. I can ask Susan too, but if you'll be seeing her, or have already started the conversation, perhaps you'd like to continue here? Let me know.

(I'm also happy for her Song Of The Year songwriter, Jesse Harris, who used to be 1/2 of a wonderful duo called Once Blue). In particular, I think this may bode well for Susan. Thanks to Norah Jones' success and her unbelievable showing last night, I'll bet that labels will be much more likely to sign someone like Susan for her piano projects, who IMNSHO has more talent in her left pinky toe than Ms. Jones has in her entire body. =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== Live At The House O'Muzak House Concert Series http://muzak.smoe.org NEXT UP: Dorothy Scott, 3/16/03 =============================================== HELP! owner-believers@smoe.org Send mail to believers@smoe.org Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at World Cafe CDs http://worldcafecds.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2003 21:04:20 -0800 From: "Ron Rosen" Subject: Nora Jones (crosspost) Nora Jones' hit single I Don't Know Why is rather catchy. After hearing it many times on the Grammies, I couldn't get it out of my head. And I started to wonder, ''Why is that so catchy?" Then I realized that the refrain "I don't know why I didn't come'', with the exception of the last note, is ''I believe in yesterday." For many reasons, there won't be a lawsuit over this, but I think there have been lawsuits over less. Anybody else notice this?
