Just as fun as kissthisguy.com/kissthesky.com(J.I.M.I.lyrics - misheard). Speaking of misherd lyrics as I'm back from 2000millenium/notmillenium and all...Wot exactly is it that uttered at the beginning of P(ast)T(he)M(ission)video clip? I assume it's Spannish, being out with a "L"atino and all, cowherding the spiritual way perhaps?? snip ============================== once more again into the breach, dear sirs "ennui" Bah! Humbug! Trippletipple!! Stupid "New Year" - I spit *pput* While being a lone voice against an idiotic, inane celebration of humanity's pointless whim (and depressing to boot) - let me be the first to mumble Old Lang Syne and link arms with each. So before retiring to dark thoughts I submit this email, which has been in my "Drafts" for a time but just will not submit itself to final completion - it therefore ends abruptly. firstly: "ennui found some Tori stooff in Perth while Christmas shopping and discovered Pooh and religion. :)" snip =============================== Daniel Gee Subject: Re: [OzTori] Re: Venus Rising - women in music series 2001 featuring Max Sharam, Wendy Rule, Monique Brumby & More! oh why can't this happen in sydney *sigh* ps - anyone who was on my icq list message me i lost my icq so have to rebuild list dan ;) - --- Julie Cesario wrote: > Hey I thought you guys may be interested in the > above.

Although, if she wrote an album >> full of songs like "Happy Workers" I don't think >> I'd >> be complaining /too/ much. >You serious??? Happy Workers INDEED. Right, I've 'ad enuff of this. Next person who disses Happy Workers or makes a smarmy remark is gunna get it in the nose, see? ============================= Subject: [OzTori] Precious Things - RAINN From: "Kate Findlay" Okay...we all are entitled to our own opinions, BUT...Nilay...WTF??? are you kidding about Precious Things??? To me (and most other ppl who i have spoken to about it) that song is *definately* the climax of the show. (and one of my favourite performances ever!) Sorry...but you are the first person i heard to ever say that and i'm absolutely stunned! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!! Hope you all had a great night (i know I did!) Kate ================================ Subject: [OzTori] Othermusic2000 + Bjork From: "Kate Findlay" Other Music i'd take (this is hard because of my varied taste) Tool - Undertow NIN - Pretty Hate Machine Bjork - Debut Sarah McLachlan - Fumbling Towards Ecstasy Dixie Chicks - Fly SheDaisy - The Whole SheBang! Paula Cole - This Fire Lydia Lunch - Oral Fixation Juliana Hatfield - Bed (or Hey Babe) there you go. (there was NO WAY i could narrow it to two CD's) and i will still feel cheated. I value my CD collection as equal with my own life! Oh...and a cute little thing that just happened to me. My mum was watching something on TV (i think it was the end of the ABC news) and they were playing bits of stuff from all over the world, and she calls me to get in the lounge room quickly so i am racing in there and on my way in i tripped over a bag, stubbed my big toe (which is now bleeding everywhere) and took nearly all the skin off one knee plus knocked my head on the doorframe (which really bloody hurt!) and i looked up at the TV and saw a 30 second clip of Bjork in Iceland (in a really cool looking building) singing 'The Anchor Song' with a choir (all little kids) so it was worth the pain :) Toodles :) Kate ============================== Subject: [OzTori] y2k fan From: Zac Ariel hello all, just wanting to report a wee amusement that happened at work last night. i was out partying during the turn of the year, and the cafe was shut until one, so in one way i guess you could say that disqualifys the following .. but dammit it was funny! (at the time..) =========================== Subject: [OzTori] Tori rations and stashes From:Spacedog Hel Happy New Minulium everyone! Hope everyone had fun - those Sydney fireworks were just amazing -every time I close my eyes, they're all I see! They certainly wipped Melbourne's arse! (Not that we were ever competing) Anyway, I'd just like to say that in all of this Tori Armageddon madness, all of my choices would end up being useless cos I'd forget to take my damn Discman! (Seriously, that's how absent-minded I am) Then again, when I leave for Japan, I'm going to have to decide what to take and what to leave behind anyway. ==================================================== ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Jan 2002 21:12:15 +1000 From: AndrewR Subject: Re: [oztori] it's cold outside...

So I've got one final New Years Day of posts... to post! I'm sure you've all deleted these (my posts) by now! ;) =========================== From: "Jim Duncan" Alasdair Duncan (Not Jim, it's not my account) Everyone else seems to be sending messages about their fave songs from other albums, so here's a list of mine : Garbage - Garbage : Vow, Dog New Tricks, Supervixen Fiona Apple - Tidal : Never Is A Promise, Carrion, Pale September Pulp - This Is Hardcore : Party Hard, The Fear, Seductive Barry Hole - Live Through This : Jennifer's Body, Violet, She Walks On Me Laura Nyro - New York Tendaberry - Save The Country, Saint Lucifer Depeche Mode : I Feel You, Stripped, Never Let Me Down, Useless Leonard Cohen : Manhattan, Suzanne, Sisters Of Mercy, Master Song Bet you feel a whole lot better now you know that. Alasdair Duncan roughend@ozweb.aunz.com ========================================= Subject: [oztori] Notification and farewell. From: Cattery Greetings, Tori-cousins... 'Tis with a sad heart and fond memory that I write this letter this bright New Year's Day, for I must bid you all adieu. You see, the coming year is promising to be one of much activity and general annoyance - as well as other factors I will not go into here - and I cannot devote my time to it anymore. I am leaving my Moderatorship in the capable hands of Celeste, who has already been doing that job for me over the last few weeks while I have been busy with other things. I am certain she will provide the service OzTori requires. 8-) Perhaps I might resubscribe later in the year, to see how you all are and just to pussyfoot around a bit as I am wont to do from time to time... However, for now it is farewell, and perhaps some day in the future, we might meet within the confines of this healing grove and talk about old adventures... Cheers, Annette - -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ aka "Cattery" in #OzTori ====================================== Subject: [oztori] additional From: Cattery Oops, forgot... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! - -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ aka "Cattery" in #OzTori My homepage http://come.to/TheCatBox ====================================== Subject: [oztori] All Time Faves / Jewel Kilcher From: Daniel Gee Hey ho all. I read someone's post about faves OTHER than Tori, and I thought I might reply. I got a spiffy cd holder for Xmas (one of the soft ones for taking in the car/boat/walking/whathaveyou) that holds 12 cd's. I thought I'd let you know what I've filled it with, and the best few tracks. These are in no particular order. Kate Bush - The Sensual World (The Sensual World, Rocket's Tail, This Woman's Work) Tori Amos - FTCGH (Cruel, Hotel, Playboy Mommy) Sarah McLachlan - Fumbling Towards Ecstasy (The final trilogy - Ice Cream, Fear, FTE) Bjork - Homogenic (Joga, Alarm Call, 5 Years) Jewel - Pieces of You (Foolish Games, Angel Standing By, Adrian) The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper (She's Leaving Home, A Day In The Life, Getting Better) Ben Lee - Breathing Tornados (Cigarettes Will Kill You, Nothing Ever Happens, Ship My Body Home) The Smashing Pumpkins - Adore (Pug, 17, Appels and Oranges, Annie Dog) Fiona Apple - Tidal (Never Is A Promise, Carrion, The First Taste) Kate Bush - The Dreaming (All of it - notably Suspended In Gaffa, Get Out Of My House, Night of the Swallow) Soundtrack - Great Expectations (Siren, Lady Your Roof Brings Me Down, Besame Mucho) Alanis Morissette - Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie (Front Row, The Couch, So Pure) These are the brillest albums ever written - and boy was it hard narrowing it down to 12!!!!!!! I need a CD burner to make my own compilations and put my vinyl onto cd!! BTW, is anyone here going to the Jewel concerts here in Sydney? If you are, drop me a line, cos I'm going too - the 10th i think :) Hanyways, have a good one Daniel :) ====================================== I reposted that one not too long ago! :o) Seeing some of the old names made me think - maybe we should list all previous members of oztori!?! It's been a while since I've seen "Cattery's" posts on the list... well exactly 3 years! ;o) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 1 Jan 2002 04:00:14 -0800 (PST) From: Nathan R Subject: [oztori] On this day 1996 Caught A Lite Sneeze was released in the UK Nayf. .

This was the time when I remember saying on the list that I had pulled out and dusted off Pele again - and well after a hiatus - I listened to it and I had my second Tori epiphany! ;) Pele is STILL the best Tori Album. Pity FtCG, TVaB, and SLG didn't live up to Pele... although they did in a way... cause I guess Pele is so different and 'out there' - sort of untouchable? No?
