The book cover is also by Katerina Jebb, the photographer for Tori's new album. It is interesting to note that Tori recommended the book in her Yahoo chat.

As far as I'm aware, there is no release of the song anywhere. It's certainly not available on anything legit, and it's not even available on a boot. Awhile ago, Tori was promising that we'd see it on a single sometime, but that obviously hasn't happened yet. Maybe we'll get lucky and see it as a b-side to one of the singles for the new album, but after all this time, I'm not holding my breath. /nad ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 15 Apr 1998 22:55:50 -0500 From: interplanet janet Subject: Re: Magazine article >And does anyone else think some of the pictures in Q look >really different to normal, in some of them her face looks >more 'long and pointy' somehow, and I must say, your eyes >get somewhat dragged to the cover of Q (in England the >magazine is in nearly every shop (very distracting) > and to add to this.. did anyone else feel that the pictures from the london times (i think it was.. not sure though. pics are up in the dent..) were just absolutely disturbing? especially the super close up. tori has this look to her now.. it looks like deep, underlying sadness that gives her a depth i haven't seen before. ana . . . . ballerinas have fins that you'll never find http://www.overlap.org . . . . ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 16 Apr 1998 09:12:11 EDT From: BlackSwan2 Subject: Re: tori at the MSG stadium...

This is my first post to this mailing list. I just signed up last night, but I've been a Tori fan for a year and a half. I'm pretty familiar with mailing lists in general (run my own, am on the EveryDay Angels list, was on the FTE list) but if anyone would fill me in on what goes on here, I've appreciate it a lot. Even suggestions so I don't annoy people would be nice. ;) A little info about me... My first Tori CD was Boys For Pele. I bought it because she was recommended by a lot of people. My collection of music has grown a lot since then. My favorite boot so far is the 10/26/94 New Haven, Connecticut show. I've been playing Tori's music for the last year, and own the UTP and LE song books, plus some misc. stuff. Playing piano is the next best thing to listening to her play. Other musicians I like are Jewel, Sarah McLachlan, Brenda Weiler, Indigo Girls, Steve Poltz, lots of others. Looking forward to her next CD!
