Hence the irony of precious things - "he said 'you're really a bad singer, girl, but I like the way you play', and I died.. BUT I THANKED HIM.' No - it would be so degrading to 'thank' somebody for turning you down - even if you do really suck. Quite "sick, sick" really. Have you *listened* to the lyrics of that song?! ;) > There comes a time when you must realise that you > really have no talent and > give up though. But what if Tori had thought this post YKTR? But since when has actual musical 'talent' ever factored into being the latest (for 2 seconds) 'pop craze'?! The ppl on these shows are seriously delusional if they think they are going to get any long term 'career' out of it. Look at Bardot, Scandal'us, and Scott Cain. 'Nuff said. Even if they do have 'talent', eventually the 'media/publicity whore' thing comes back to bite them. Hard.

Um she sings it in Cantonese, dear. "if she can't enunciate the words" - may I remind you that you are a fan of TORI m'dear!!! Play "Siren" (studio) to someone who knows nothing of Tori & see if they even recognise it as being in English. > p/s: someone save me from work please... lol I so 'hear what you are saying' Nathan. ===== "You're alright - there's nothing wrong Self-sufficience, please And get to work!" - Bjork, 'Army of Me' "I do feel very alienated from the rest of society and I have done forever really" - - Siobhan Fahey, in 'Women, Sex and Rock N' Roll', 1994. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Um Faye Wong did it in Cantonese - I have the mp3. It's called (translated) "Cold War"... or "a silent wall between lovers" is how Take to the Sky fanzine described it as.
