Maria McKee has released 3 albums since Days Of Thunder s/t and has written hit songs,done b/v's for many artistes(ie-U2,Counting Crows,Dixie Chicks) and participated in many tres artistically credible musical projects also (ie-tribute to Victoria Williams,Cajun music tribute and many more) and is about to release a new album. > > > I also LOVE > > The Pixies,Midnight Oil,Sinead,Tim Buckley,Nick > > Drake,Van > > Morrison,Gomez,Muse,Imperial Teen...unt more > >OK, you've said all the "cool" ones...

I agree with you about this but that doesn't mean that someone's career is OVER.Besides Cyndi's influence still lives in many new female singers....Gwen Stefani and Pink are two that spring to mind that cite her as an influence and inspiration. >I'm not saying it's a bad thing (although I'm sure >Cyndz wouldn't mind the income she could once >generate)... but "let's be realistic". um,be realistic about WHAT? > > Even if u are saying that,Cyndi sold > > 3million plus of an album > > only SIX years ago. > >Is she still big in Japan/Brazil, as many a has-been >artist likes to claim ;) And funnily enough,as many artists ARE! And Cyndi is definitely NOT a has-been artist.Do me a favour and dl Mother(extended version) or Searching or Say A Prayer. Cyndi L in my opinion is not in the same artistic league as Tori Amos but she they both still suffer the same 'weird female=no talent'syndrome and that attitude in the vast majority of cases is directed at them by males. >I'm sorry, but I don't buy that statistic.

You don't buy it?But it's not for sale,it's just a fact!OK,I admit that it WAS for 12 Deadly Cyns(a greatest hits)This sold over a million in the UK alone.Since then she has won an Emmy award and released the best music of her career.(and sold fairly dismal quantities of new music although her new EP was selling 5000 copies a week earlier this yearwhich is pretty good for an independent release!(and that figure comes from the head of her indie label) > > > I guess you are thinking about > > leaving Tori fandom behind > > u then as she seems 2 be sliding down the charts her > > career must be over > > now. > >Yup.

Mmmmm and aren't they just treasure troves of good muzak... The scariest thing I think about Cyndi is.. that she was 30 when she sang "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" in that squeaky gurlie voice! You really thought she would have grown up more by then ;) (j/k.. well I do half mean it.. did she OD on helium before recording it?). > And Cyndi is definitely NOT a has-been artist.Do me > a favour and dl > Mother(extended version) By Tori? ;) > or Searching or Say A > Prayer. > Cyndi L in my opinion is not in the same artistic > league as Tori Amos but I'm not saying Cyndi sucks *at all*. I think True Colours is a very nice song (love the way she sings "beautiful like a Wainbow")... and she at least was original and not at all a pop 'clone' like we have today. As if to 'prove the point', I have "I Drove All Night" burnt onto a CD for my car.

Re-read that sentence. I know what you meant to say, but there it looks like you're saying that ppl know better than to believe that what I say is based on negativity.. *chuckle* But as we were taught in maths, "two negatives make a positive". > You're paying out on Maria McKee because someone you > think(and I agree FTR) > is not artistically credible covered one of her > songs? I don't know of any other MMK (like the abbrev.?) songs other than Show Me Heaven... but she has an OK voice and she looked OK too I thought.. hheeh.

There are groups for other capitals as well, but I don't think any apart from Brisbane have got together. I'll be there! But I'll leave the digicam at home this time ;).

Yeah, it's a pity about that Nathan, I thought the subject reading "Ignore" would be obvious enough to you, apparently NOT.

I don't have a thing with gnomes (altho, it might not appear that way, people keep giving me gnome things, I never used to own anything associated with gnomes). It was just a chosen name for use online, which has stuck, which has lead to people giving me gnome things. It's not a thing for the creature, it's not a linux thing, it is not a smart-ass thing (as in the meaning of the word 'gnome', look it up!). It's just a name. But if I was to chose to be a mythical being, from faeries, goblins, elves, dwarves, hobbits, what-not, i'd pick a gnome (and a male one at that, female gnomes are treated like dirt) Is that explanation enough?

Ah, "person with sinister influence, esp. in finance". Yup, that's why you're studying business :) Nathan. ===== "They don't expect boys to pretend to be nice, but they do with girls, and I'm not a nice person!" - Siobhan Fahey. _______________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
