I wouldn't say these are "songs to slit your wrists to" (which would make a good Nine Inch Nails album title) but... The Beatles - "In My Life" (is this the saddest song or what?) Lisa Germano - Happiness (one of the most depressing albums ever) Sinead O'Connor - "Nothing Compares 2 U" (and many others) Neil Young - Nearly every song on Sleeps With Angels Jeff Buckley - "Last Goodbye" Whiskeytown/Matthew Ryan - (Anything) Kate Bush - "Under the Ivy" Tom Waits - "Time" Nine Inch Nails - "Hurt" Elvis Costello - "Sleep of the Just" Gillian Welch - "Orphan Girl" John Lennon - "Beautiful Boy" Cocteau Twins - "Half Gifts" Joni Mitchell - "The Sire of Sorrow" Otis Redding - Too many to name. Legendary sad songwriter. October Project - "Return To Me" REM - "Everybody Hurts" 10,000 Maniacs - "Verdi Cries" Eric Clapton - "Tears in Heaven" ... many others... but life doesn't suck :) Nicole ******************************** www.chickclick.com Sign up for free email. http://chickmail.chickclick.com Win free stuff! http://contests.chickclick.com ******************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2001 06:07:51 -0800 (PST) From: Marla Tiara Subject: Emm Gryner/Meghan Toohey Well folks, this mini-tour (the "m and m tour!") is NOT to be missed! Last night's show at Emily's (which was not quite the ideal venue due to tons of people who were there for the bar, not the music - lotsa chatter) was otherwise exquisite. Meg was amazing solo and acoustic (accompanied by a drum machine on some songs) and Emm blew me away. I'd never seen Emm before but now I am very much looking forward to the next Boston area show. Highlights for me: Julia, Pour Some Sugar on Me (I made Emm crack up by throwing the 'horns' at her - but Emm impressed me with her ability to take a coarse 80s rocker and turn it into something beautiful), and a few new songs. Incredible, amazing, wonderful - I can't gush enough about the evening, music-wise. Both artists allow taping by the way - you might want to ask first as I did - so I taped both sets (can't trade either until I both catch up on many many things and put both shows on CD, but I will get back to you all on that) but I also wanted to implore anyone with a tape recorder, minidisc player, dat, whatever, to record each and every show! ;) I hope it's OK to say that too... I know that I was asked to send Meghan a copy of the show I taped, which I have no problem with at all... (Meghan is playing several upcoming shows in Boston without Emm - check out http://www.meghantoohey.com for more info and sound clips and all that good stuff) Oh yes, and Emm did indeed wear my tiara and put up with my babbling about how much I love Toronto. Does anyone in Canada want to sponsor me and my boyfriend so we can move there permanently? I'm almost kidding. That's all from here!

Whenever I get depressed and feel like wallowing for a while, I put on Portishead's Dummy...it has such a mournful, melancholy feel to it, it's the ultimate bad mood music. Other songs that come to mind are Holly McNarland's "Stormy" and "Something I Can Never Have" by Nine Inch Nails...as for something to cheer me up when I'm feeling down, a double shot of Weeping Tile's "Good Fortune" and "New Mistake" by Jellyfish works every time! :) ************************************************* Mike Keast (michael.keast@giffels.com) http://www.geocities.com/dtswd/ "i don't care if they eat me alive i've got better things to do than survive" ************************************************* ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2001 10:57:01 -0800 (PST) From: dana wagner Subject: Re: Emm Gryner/Meghan Toohey since i just got into work like an hour ago, have a zillion things to catch up on, got 2 hrs of sleep last night, and was on a 5hr train from boston this morning, i think i will wait before i write a lil review of the first show of the Emm & M tour. however, a set listing is in order: your sort of human being southern dreamer the end end credit lullaby (formerly known as jets over jupiter... beeeyuteeful) BRAVING DECEMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pour some sugar on me santa monica northern holiday julia case of tornados acid lots of merch sold, fun had, meghan toohey kicked ass once again. i think this was #20 for me... and definitely in the top 3 emm shows i've ever seen. who's coming to FEZZFEST? dana ===== http://www.aquezada.com/dwagner Yahoo!

In addition to those two club shows, Emm will be taping a performance and interview for a program called Megahertz at WNVT studios on Friday, February 2 at 2:30pm. The station would like a small audience to fill the studio for this taping. If you are interested in attending, go to www.wnvt.org and you can request tickets for the show. You'll see Emm on the site, so just click on her picture and it will tell you how to get tickets. More information, including directions, can also be found on the website. Hope to see some of you there... Nicky who is still recovering from last night's show ------------------------------ End of headline-girl-digest V4 #22 **********************************
