Gotta love the oh-so-dramatic "all afternoon doing EVERY LITTLE CHORE" bit of Losing My Mind. > her version of twist in my sobriety is fucking > hilarious, specially since > she's such a known alco! Hehehe. Wonder what Tanita Tikarem thinks of it. Speaking of which.. I remember when I first heard & saw the clip to 'Twist in my Sobriety' on Rage.. I thought Tanita looked/sounded at least middle-aged.. LOL when she was only like 18 or something at the time. > >Tori content - I reckon Tori could do a cool > version > >of "Rent". > > "i said... yes, well, i looove yoooo, yooo pay mya > reeent, muthaaa" No I reckon Tori could do an ace version of "Rent" just solo piano (ie, no unnecessary 'must-add-as-many-instruments-as-possible-post-Choirgirl' additional instrumentation). But she probably doesn't even know the original song :( Naffie. . LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!
