I don't know the name of the song - I'm pretty sure it was a short one-word title. How freaky is this - I happen to be just flicking around before, and I flicked past MusicMax, and I was going to keep going except I flicked backdown and the song that was on just finished and then I heard the first cord and then the first scene and I grabbed the remote and pressed record. They were playing "May It Be" by Enya from The Lord of the Rings! WOOHOO! What a coincidence - I think I may have missed the first 5 seconds though :o( :o) MusicMax is SO much better than Channel [V] now.

No I've not heard anything from Songs of Red and Grey... I bought her best of 'Tried and True' 2 years ago and kinda wore it out in 3 days (it got about 15 spins in that time!). Then I bought all her albums (except Nine Objects of Desire which I couldn't find)... but it was already too late - I kind of 'out-Suzanned' myself ;) As for "Luka"... For some reason, I remember liking that a lot more in 1987 than when I heard it again 2 years ago. It's nice.. but I get sick of it quickly. "Left Of Center" is prolly my fave.

And I'm a bit of a fan of 'Blood Makes Noise', too. There's some v. good stuff on that album. As for 'Luka', I can still listen to it over and over. Don't know if that's more because of the song itself or the memories it conjures up (Mum and Dad out in the kitchen yelling out that dinner was ready, and me ignoring them because I was halfway through taping the song off the radio on my little soap-green coloured radio/cassette player, and needed to wait till it was finished so I could hit the 'stop' button!). It's a great song, either way. :P I not long ago downloaded a video clip of Ms Vega singing it on some variety show, wearing bangs and a prim little dress that I'm sure was starched. As daggy as that sounds, it really suited the performance. ~Becc. :) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Jan 2002 18:48:06 +1100 From: "Jasmina J" Subject: Re: [oztori] More JJJ (Juarez, Josephine.. and er, Jackie's Strength) >Well, I tuned in to JJJ to hear the Top 3... and OMG >what a load of SHIT was #3!!! Some 'Chop Suey' song.. >Who would listen to THAT? i would. System Of A Down are excellent. Serj from SOAD, Maynard from Tool and Jon from Korn are the three coolest male vocalists. All three guys use their vocals in completely different ways. They know what they are capable of with their voice and use it beautifully. And just for your information, Chop Suey is the song that has been Number 1 on the net 50 for the past fifteen weeks (well not always number one but in the top 5 and a lot of the time number one). Unlike SLG this song hasn't been all over the charts it has just, pretty much, stayed put.
