I believe she appeared on a few episodes of 'Roseanne' and that she sang in one of these. As I remember it was some kind of classic rock tune with a bluesy bent to it and she sounded fantastic!

It's also on the >"Now That I've Found You" compilation. I love Alison's version. And James Taylor's son, Ben, had a very nice take on it, too, although he sounded a lot like Dad, not that there's anything wrong with that. I myself enjoy playing it on gigs. - -Fred ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 May 2002 23:52:58 -0000 From: "Alan Larson" Subject: Somewhere over the Rainbow--NJC A year or so ago I asked on this list if anyone knew the writer/singer of the version of this song I heard on Gideon's Crossing. It was interesting to hear who people thought it might be, even without having heard it. And I checked out many versions online, back when Napster was still running, I think. Eva Cassidy's version was one I enjoyed hearing. But none of them captured the essence of what I heard in the version on tv. And since then, in the last month and a half, it has been on Providence and just the other night on ER, Dr. Greene's farewell (Anthony Edwards). And obviously the writers/directors and creative control people of these three dramas feel as I do... it is an extraordinarily gifted version of this timeless classic. I was so taken by its charisma and haunting melody that I didn't even realize it was in Hawaiian style, ukulele and all. I finally found the guy's name on NBC programming FAQ's and ordered it online the same night. His name is Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. (Don't ask me to pronounce it!) On the CD, he actually combines Somewhere ... with What a Wonderful World... although I'm not so sure the two go together that well... they do and they don't, if you know what I mean. The segment used on the three dramas cut out before the song reaches that part. Thematically they go marvelously together... and musically not such a stretch either, but it's kind of like Chinese Cafe... you either love it or you hate it. Of course, I'm somewhere inbetween. Just thought people might like to know about this kind of stuff. Any reactions? I love the power of the perfect song at the end of a heart-wrenching episode or movie. There was a scene on Once and Again, when the stepkids' mother is learning to walk again that was very powerful, but I don't remember the song. Many shows use this technique pretty well these days, including Allie McBeal. And a new show called American Embassy, on hiatus right now. delurking alan in iowa city ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 May 2002 23:14:30 -0700 From: "Kate Bennett" Subject: RE: Y Tu Mama Tambien NJC >>I totally did not pick up on something more with Luisa the first time around, other than her getting that test score on not being "a fully realized woman" in the magazine at the doctor's office.<<< To me, her extreme highs & lows reflected this to me & the nature of her calls to her husband...(especially when she said that she took no money, just his shirt)... >>An see, this is one reason i am so keen on other people's opinions, because this is so questionable - again,. am I seeing that because of the prism of my life or not? When they wake up in the fishing village, it was clear to me that the night before was about much more than what we saw in the movie, and after that all joy, and the exuberence that drove the movie,was gone.<<< I didn't get enough info to decide whether much more was going on with them or whether it was just wild experimentation...to me that is the great unanswered question of the movie...I think it could be interpreted either way...but boths ways mean that they changed the dynamic of their relationship forever... >>You think so? I think that the very accurate portrayal of young adult men would make a lot of men anxious since men generally don't handle scenes like the diving boards or the night in the fishing village all that well.<< Maybe, unless they are mature & honest enough to accept that is the reality of boys/young adult men...which it is...from what I've been told & observed ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2002 #212 ***************************** ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here: mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:joni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe ------- Siquomb, isn't she?
