Hey all, I couldn't help but notice that the first song listed on the set list was "5 seconds to spare (16, clumsy and shy)". Is this not a Smiths song? I'm trying to think of the actual title and it's driving me absolutely batty!!! I definitely remember this song from my 13 year-old Smiths/Morrissey worshiping days. It goes something like: "So if you have 5 seconds to spare/ Then I'll tell you the story of my life/ Sixteen, clumsy, and shy/ I went to London and I/ I booked myself in at the Y-W-C-A/ I said I like it here, can I stay?/ I like it here can I stay?" Please, someone out there, tell me the damn title of the song before I go nuts!!! AHHHHH!!!!! Okay, anyway, that's really kinda weird/cool/interesting that Patty is covering a Smiths song. Did she sing the whole thing or just an excerpt? I really, really hope she sings "Flaming Red" at the shows I'm seeing her at because I'd LOVE to hear that bluesy intro and this is my current fave on the album. It gets me wired in the mornings as I make my long commute to school. I swear, I do more ass-shakin' in my car than I do at home... -cristina ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 18 Apr 1999 03:46:39 EDT From: JohnRN24@aol.com Subject: Re: MM: 16, clumsy, and morrissey? () "Call me morbid, call me pale..." I love Morrissey/the Smiths. The actual title is ''HALF A PERSON'' from their Louder Than Bombs album. It was also on their "Best...Part I" album. Any further information I give would lead you to believe that... aside of music... I have absolutely no life. :-) John ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 18 Apr 1999 03:51:32 EDT From: JohnRN24@aol.com Subject: Re: MM: 4/17/99, 7:00 PM, Iron Horse (review & set list) POST SCRIPT If anyone happened to TAPE this first set, pleeeease! I would kill innocent lemmings to hear Patty's version of Half a Person! (by the Smiths) And Little God acoustic would rock!

Also, I'm not sure my post made it to the list the other week (email problems!) - I just wanted to add my favourite lyrics to the discussion: "It took a while to understand the beauty of just letting go" - Let Him Fly It's not just the words, but they way they are sung - just magnificent!

I'm curious: How would an Aussie find out about Patty? I know alot of people in the US got to know her at Lilith Fair. I discovered Patty on the local folk radio show.

Hi all - sorry to those who already read this story when I first joined the list.... Once upon a time... I was in a music store and was going to buy Jewel's first CD - this is way back in 1997. I had some time to kill and so I decided to listen to some of the CDs set up around the store. I heard the first strains of Moses and was hooked. I decided right then and there to buy the CD - a really spontaneous thing to do for me, a Libra, who normally has to agonise over every decision!!! I took the CD home and didn't stop playing it - and my partner loved it too! It so happened that two weeks later, we were going to the US for a conference in Springfield MA and I searched the web on the off chance that we might be able to see Patty somewhere - I had no idea if she was 'big' or not. It turned out that she was playing in Rhode Island, a mere two hours or so drive from the conference, so one our one spare Saturday night, John and I drove to Providence for what must be the best concert I have ever seen - and since then I have been hooked. I wasn't so keen on Flaming Red when it came out and said so in no uncertain terms on the list - only to regret my comments later after listening to the CD over and over. I love Flaming Red, though nothing will ever be able to beat those first strains of Moses. Luckily at the concert, Patty's guitar had lost its pulg - we didn't notice, we were in the front row, and so in the middle of Moses the sound guy dashed on the stage and reattach it - well, Patty was gracious enough to start the song over!!!! We also got to meet her briefly and she signed some stuff for us and mentioned the fact that we were all the way from Australia when she was on stage - it was really cool. Well, since then, we only get to dream about seeing her in concert again, and as we will be in the US in May again (same conference, this time in State College, PA), we are crossing our fingers that she will be playing somewhere close by again. That's my Patty story.....
