I don't ever think of David as a Christian Artist - there are certainly religious or spiritual themes in his music, but I don't think he fits into that genre...I only own one of his albums, but it's one of my favorites - "East Asheville Hardware" - and the themes of most of the songs don't strike me as religious - "after your Orgasm" or "Blow "em Away" (about road rage) and my favorite on the album, the title track, talks about a conversation with an angel, but just to patronize the local hardware store, instead of one of the huge mega-chains.....mostly a down-home theme..... - - Laurel ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 1 Sep 1998 09:02:01 +1000 From: "COLE,Iain" Subject: MM: RE: Music Definitely Patty. particularly "You are not alone".. Another good song when down (from a bad relationship) is Queen's "Teo Torriate", Shawn Colvin's "Kill the Messenger".. and a taste of Deborah Conway Deb conway - "She Prefers Fire" (from Bitch Epic) Sometimes I dream that everything I own Could burn up and Leave me no sadness no home A flame collapsing from the inside Antiseptic, hottest blue and purest white Everything that we have reminds us what we have lost Old friends go to war Love comes love goes Everything that we have echoes what we desire She prefers fire regards, Iain ____________________________________________________________________________ After a year in therapy, my psychiatrist said to me, "Maybe life isn't for everyone."

When I want to wallow in my sadness I go for Tori Amos' "Little Earthquakes", "Grace" by Jeff Buckley, "Dilate" by Ani DiFranco or either "Solace" or "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" by Sarah McLachlan. When I want to overcome my bad mood I'll listen to "Gordon" by the Barenaked Ladies, "Live Noise" by Moxy Fruvous or the Indigo Girls' "1200 Curfews" (I'm a sucker for live albums.)

I really liked the mention of Abandoned Lunchenette and Something Anything. Those two are classic relationship trouble albums. I guess we're showing our age here. I also agree with Tori Amos especially the 1st one. Peter Gabriel is also excellent. "Don't Give Up" especially. Jonatha Brooke and the Story's stuff is great. One artist I haven't seen mentioned here, but who I really loved to be depressed and listen to is David Sylvian. His albums "Gone to Earth" and "Secrets of the Beehive" are materpieces of depression. I seem to like to listen sad music because it somehow exorcises the sadness. Lots of people I know can't relate and seem to need to always listen to bouncy happy music. On another note, I just borrowed and listened to Ebba Forsberg's Been There. In one casual listening I am somewhat pleasantly surprised. Her voice is kinda sexy in a sultry way akin to the Everything But the Girl singer. I'm not blown away, but will give it some more time.

I imagine she came from a Christian family... but Christian artist in disguise?! Not a chance. Oh... and about the Tori Amos comment... i.e. "seems a lot of us "catholic school of guilt" girls have a negative opinion of the hypocrisy we were taught growing up. Can anyone else relate? - -Jess" I was brought up catholic, learned a lot about guilt and rebelled against it myself at an early age. It's worse for women of course. To me, Catholicism is the world's biggest boys club. But please, let's not get off on that tangent!!! :) Suffice it to say, I think the thought of Patty being a Christian artist is pretty "out there". ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Sep 1998 00:25:39 -0300 From: Patty Howard Subject: MM: Greetings and Mood Music Hi all. I am just a recent Patty fan - my friend sent up a tape from Boston with Poor Man's House and well, I ran out that day and ordered both Flaming Red and the LWG cd's (I live in a little Canadian city where Patty isn't regular stock) Today I received my first digest and thought that I would respond to the "what type of music do you listen to when you are down?" post made by Judy, I believe. Well, Indigo Girls (however, also when I am in an up mood), David Wilcox, again forementioned ( and yes - he definitly has spiritual undertones), Richard Shindell (yah! for lgrady) Counting Crows are a definite listen, Dar Williams, Jann Arden (mostly all her stuff can bring you to a pretty low spot), Live, some of Sarah McLaughlin, Cheryl Wheeler's "arrow", and practically any song that I find mellow enough to continually repeat over and over for hours (anyone else do that?!?) Catie Curtis, Rose Polenzia (sp?!?) and Trina Hamlin are my new favs though - although not necessarely for a down mood. Overall though, I would have to go with Patty and Counting!
