We can work out what you want in return, either copies of live tapes, CD's or money ofcourse.

Please! I won't have these singles until later in the week because I'm in the US. I'm very excited and really interested in the lyrics, esspecially the lyrics for Cooling. Someone post soon!

And yes, it is out in the UK - 2 CD Set, as previously assumed - one 4 track, one 3 track, both incredible. Incidentally, both CDs are the same in appearance. If you guys who have it haven't played CD 2 yet (Ltd.CD) then just pick it out of it's box and look at the picture underneath... now *THERE*'s a mer-girl... ;-) Cheers Mike ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Apr 1998 14:59:02 EDT From: Quinn024 Subject: UK Spark singles request... Hey- First off I want to say sorry if everybody has already started flooding mailboxes with this sort of request. I may have been unsubscribed somehow, I'm not really sure but anyway... I was wondering if it would be possible for anybody living in the UK to pick me up a copy of the two UK Spark releases... I had put down a preorder at one of the companies but before I go sending them money I wanted to know if someone on this list could do me the favor instead. Please e-mail me privately if you could, it would mean a geat deal to me... Thanx so much. Peace, NeilQuinn ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Apr 1998 14:47:02 EDT From: Bazzly Subject: Landslide If anyone is intersted in buying a really good version of Tori's cover of Landslide it's being sold at eBay auction. It's the Live 105 CD. My friend Julie has it and I gotta tell ya it sounds awesome.(nothing like my crappy bootleg version of it) Well, since I'm broke and can't bid on it I figured I'd pass on the info to people who might be intersted. Here's the link eBay item 10996578 (Ends 04/20/98 20:06:39 PD... The auction ends in 8 hours. And since I'm on the subject of Landslide, does any one now how I can get a copy of the Y-100 Sonic Session CD. I've called the radio station sales office and left a message but they never called back. Hope everyone's having a great day!

Hi Guys... 1)Has no-one posted cover-scans from the UK singles yet? Or the postcards? If not, mail me (MikeW?) and I'll do some tonight and post them out. 2)Has no-one real-audio encoded the new songs? (If not, again, I'll put that on my things to do list!) 3)Has anyone scanned in the store order-form for "Spark" and the album yet (the one that stores use to order them) which is a little photocopier thing? If not, again... on my things to do list 4)I picked up a vinyl (picture disc, 2 sided) called "Tori Amos, The Interview" (UFO / WW1 2LP) can *ANYONE* tell me anything about it - how much is it worth, where is it from, anything like that. 5)Heidi & Nadyne - your Spark singles are in the post - could you drop me a line - I need a word with both of you, please. 6).. how long is this mail at all? .. I might be dropping off the list for a while, things aren't going too well for me right now. Erm... .....Richard H - have you mailed me anything? I fear my mail is going missing. :-( 7)Ah, there is no seven, that's the lot!

Well, this review starts badly, tails off in the middle and the end is probably not worth talking about.. it's from UK Ceefax, BBC, Pp564. It's a direct cut 'n' paste from my teletext decoder, so when you see the mis-spelling, it's how it was originally. "TORI AMOS - PARK (Eastwest) Don't dust down your dancing shoes before you take a jaunt down to Dr Pop's Record Emporium ¯ this is definitely NOT Professional Widow II. The Cornflake Girl goes through the emotions on a passionate, piano-fuelled lament, with shades of Kate Bush and Madonna and a teensy slice of Meat Loaf" And from pp.482 on Channel 4 "TORI AMOS Spark -- More nerve-jangling obsessional pop full of quirky piano, paranoid vocals and fuzzy breakbeats. " (3 out of 5) Well, at least *they* got the title right.. from pp.143 on Channel 4 (Gossip page) "Tori Amos reckons the Spice Girls got inspiration from classic literature and ancient mythology. OK, Tori... " and finally, from Pp144... "TORI AMOS Spark More weird psycho-warblings from the Princess of Kook. Spark features Ms Amos's trademark high pitched warble of distress, quirky piano and this time, some fuzzy breakbeats. A Kate Bush for the 90s we're afraid. ** out of *****" Ah, the UK media, always so open minded and understanding... gah.

This is not necessarily the fault of the RealMedia people, but most internet connections don't have the available speed and bandwidth that streaming media files require. If you are interested, there are numerous unbiased articles published on the web about the future of RealMedia and streaming video. With users rapidly switching to cable modems, isdn, and other fast internet technology, it will be a matter of a SHORT wait before streamed media matches and exceeds the capabilities of television. Imagine, the days are just around the corner when you can have a full-lenght movie streamed directly to your pc (or, with the proper video card) lined out to your television. Anyhoo - Yes, the quality of the video sucks; it's choppy and pixelized like hell, but for those of us who only have LITTLE EARTHQUAKES VIDEOS on tape, this - right now - is the ONLY place to see these videos. It's not much, but it's all I have (for now). D.

Lizard King said: >Ok I know this is going to sound kinda dumb...but I've heard that Tori >is going to be having a U.S. summer tour...for example people are >saying "when she comes to Madison Square Garden this summer...."I hope >this rumor is true...but isnt she doing her UK tour this summer >??....I'm very confused..... My group got to talk to Joel before the Ft Lauderdale show, and he mentioned a few things: * Tori -will- be returning this summer. * The current plan is that she'll be in Florida sometime in August. * No US dates are set yet. * There will be at least four FL shows at the beginning of the tour. * They're currently planning on 200 shows. The full review that my group and I wrote after the Ft Lauderdale show is up on The Dent {first review, probably 'cause we were the only psychos who sat down at a laptop right after the show and wrote it up *grin*}, so you can read the full text of it there. Some notes, though: If you've heard the Twilight Mix of Putting the Damage On {only available on the "RAINN Retrospective" promo}, that's the version she does live, and it's absolutely breathtaking. No "Me and a Gun". Whether or not this is retired permanently, or just for the club tour, or if she'll show up occasionally from now on remains to be seen. Yes, there are meet'n'greets, both before the show -and- after. She signed autographs before and after as well, not just before the show like last time. My guess is that she's only doing it this way because it's the club tour, and we won't see autographs after the shows on the full tour 'cause there are just too many people there. Merchandise: black t-shirt with cover photo in large and XL for $25, white babydoll with pink coiled electric cord surrounding "Tori Amos" in red script for $25, "Raspberry Swirl Girl / Tori Amos Plugged 1998" on a necklace for $10. No programs, postcards, or anything else. "Upside Down" takes on a -whole- new meaning now. "Horses" with a band is bloody incredible. I hope that we see a live CD {double CD set?!} released with this, because the new versions of the songs deserve to be released. "The Waitress" has a very bluesy beginning, and then proceeds to kick your ass. Okay, okay, enough babbling, esp since its 2am. See y'all in Atlanta tonight! :) /nad ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Apr 1998 13:55:05 -0600 From: Billings@WHAD.com Subject: RE: IGG preorders I, too, ordered the SPARK singles from IGG.

I also suggested that IGG send an update on shipping this week for all who have ordered. And those wondering, yes, I'm waiting for my order also. I would expect all orders would be filled and shipped within 48 hours of recieving the singles in store. So I would expect orders to start arriving to people Fri - - Mon.

MTV Live said "coming *into* the studio this week...just decided today". Since the Spark video has been hyped on Tori.com since last week as to its premire, and a video doesn't *come into* a studio, I personally will be watching MTV at 6PM Wed, Thus, Fri (whenever she's on, I'll catch her).

To Charlie and all the other Toriphiles, It's my thinking that the "secret show" Live 105 talked about over the radio is the one that everyone on the list already knows about and has already sold out...the one set for May 5th at the Fillmore. I'm assuming Live 105 just wanted to wait before they release the information over the air so that those people not fortunate enough to have net access or to have seen the ad in the SF Weekly for the show could find out about it. Doesn't this make more sense to you? If this is the case I'm sorry to disappoint, but then again, I could be completely off base.

I was just watching HBO Olé (HBO in spanish) hoping to catch the promo ad on the concert that they will be transmiting... and hey! There it was on my TV!! I had never felt like that... I could have cried after hearing those "Cornflake Girl" notes... chills went up my spine. Call me silly, but it was something undescribable to hear that they will show some Tori. It was a really neat ad. "Tor-e Am-o-s" said the guy on the ad. They also showed some quotes... something like "my songs are about what women feel inside" I think. I taped most of the ad, because it took me by surprise. So... yes, Alicia was very right (forever thankful to her)... this will be the "Live From New York" concert... live from the Madison Square Garden, premiering on May 2, 9pm. I have no idea if they're gonna air the whole show... by the way, how long is it? and could anyone give us tracklisting? Oh wait... I'll check The Dent later on that. Now the question to ask ourselves would be... I know they aired this concert on the Lifetime channel last year, but they did not air the whole thing, right? I just wish and hope that they will indeed show the whole concert this time. I can't wait. Oh... and I also hope the "Spark" single will indeed be released tomorrow in the US... if not, then I won't be able to get it. Still excited.
