Ok, you know how sweet "Cloud on my Tongue" is? Well, there are some parts of it that represent different things for me. "You can go now... you're already in there. I'll be wearing your tattoo", is about this boy whom I really love, really really love, and he knows me but doesn't know that I love him, and he'll leave soon because he graduated from school this year. I get really angry because sometimes he doesn't see me, and I think "I don't need you, you can go and it won't make any difference to me" but then I realize that no matter what I think, he'll go anyway and I'll remember the way loving him has changed me (i'll be wearing his tattoo). "Leave me the way I was before". When I see something that reminds me of him, I get angry also because it shouldn't affect me so much, so sometimes I wish I'd never met him. "Circles and circles and circles again, the girl(me)'s in circles and circles gotta stop spinning" that I have to stop thinking so much (about him and what I don't have and would like to have). That part really makes me spin, it has that effect on me. It's not that I get dizzy, but I feel the soung spinning inside my head. Well, after school I was sitting down drawing, listening to this song in my discman, and by chance he came by and I heard it while I saw him and spoke to him. And I remember I sang "you're already in there" really quietly, but he didn't notice me. I still felt like I had told him. It was amazing. Really chilling. Love, Alicia "...i'll be wearing your tattoo..." ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 6 Dec 1997 19:32:45 EST From: Urucyon Subject: Re: Thoughts on Tori In a message dated 97-12-06 00:24:56 EST, stephanie.handley@MCI.Com writes: << Gotta say that I'm in complete agreement with you on this. For months after BfP came out I had a difficult time listening to LE, because it seemed almost shallow (!) when compared to BfP. I love to >> Hi Stephanie :-) Tori being the goddess she is, it's hard to talk about anything she's done as being anything less than perfect, but i also felt that LE seemed a bit shallow compared to her later work. i can't feel bad to say that, since even Tori herself talks about her progression as an artist. i know LE has a lot of personal meaning for Tori, but from what i can tell from her interviews, Tori thinks BfP is her greatest album so far (on a musical level). don't get me wrong, even though i think LE isn't Tori's most complex album, it's still infinately better than any album her 'counterparts' have put out (in my opinion). i guess comparing LE, UtP, and BfP to each other is kind of like comparing gold to diamonds- equally valuable, it just depends on what you like. < < < watch her grow and evolve and am so happy to always see her pushing the boundaries more and more with each album. That to me is true musicianship! Break the mold each time, more and more. > > > :-) :-) :-) that's exactly how i feel about musicians. it's only by constantly striving to better themselves that artists are able to truely achieve greatness. Tori likes to express her feelings with her music, but so do almost all other artists. what separates Tori from the others is that she is a better 'musician/composer'. i think Tori will always have that concert pianist inside her, for which she studied to be at the Peabody Conservatory. i'm just rambling now, so i'll spare ya'll the rest. have a good night all :-) bryan ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 6 Dec 1997 22:43:12 EST From: SuGaRsTaRz Subject: Tori covering "whoop there it is" (!!) ok, this is VERY interesting - i was at CD Cafe, which is a GREAT locally owned music store every time i go in there i talk to the owner because he's really cool, so tonite i was there with 4 of my friends, and i asked him if he had any tori imports, and raised an eyebrow at him. he raises an eyebrow at me and asks 'THE imports? or single imports' i say "THE imports" by now i'm really excited. he tells me to come behind the counter, and shows me a black box in a black cabinet - it has 3 tori full-length import cds in it [as well as other artists] and as i'm freaking out and reading the songs, a double CD has a cover of Tori performing WHOOP THERE IT IS live. i screamed, and he freaks out because he's not supposed to have these and i'm making noise so i immediately shut up. i'm practically drooling, and the double-cd is $46.99...i have $2.50 with me. GREAT. the guy tells me if i come back wtih the cash within 3 days he'll sell one too me. anyone have ANY clue on how to make $50 in 3 days??? has anyone EVER heard of Tori covering whoop there it is?? i have GOT to hear this amazing gem Kristy *someone PLEASE help me with this!!* ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 06 Dec 1997 23:19:26 -0500 From: kel11@scasd.k12.pa.us (Kim/BlkSwan07) Subject: Re: Tori covering "whoop there it is" (!!) I've heard about that cover, there was a bit of a hubbub caused by her doing it 'cos the guy who wrote it was a wife/girlfriend abuser something like that. As for getting the 50$ hmm depends on how bad you want it--sell your old cds, that's it, if you can't get a job/get a loan/take any money out of the bank.. or you could beg the owner to give it to you and pay him back within a month or soemthing and sell dubs of it on here (hint hint) or to friends.

Heh just one more thing, I'm here in Penn State (the university) and we have 6 local music stores.. 4 of 'em carry those 'imports' (bootlegs) except here's the catch--they display 'em all. I'm dead serious, they know no boundrys (rofl)! There's always Tori bootlegs, along with a ton of other artist's boots here. ON display, I just found that funny that the store's owner keeps his locked away from sight..
