Tori has covered this in concert exactly once: on her birthday on her 1996 tour. There is a bootleg of this show available, but it has -horrible- sound quality.

Tori must be able to sightread somewhat. Remember the "Live To Tell" story? I don't remember who it was, but the guy asked her to play this at a concert, gave Tori the sheet music beforehand, and she did play it. If I'm not mistaken she played some of it off the page, and then got the hang of it and began improvising.

Aimee ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 06 Apr 1999 00:02:42 -0400 From: "Erin Martin" Subject: sister janet, here in my head, northern lad,albums Hi! I've had a few maybe insights lately on some tori songs I wanted to share. First off, I"m reading _the Awakening_ by Kate Chopin. On a page near the beginng, the main character says something like, "It will be a fine wedding present for Sister Janet." Now I haven't read enough to know anything else about Sister Janet, but I thought that was interesting. I'm guessing Tori has read the book since it's supposed to be such a landmark novel of feminine sexuality and empowerment. If anybody's read this and has any ideas, share please! I was listening to "Here. In My Head" a couple days ago and had another thought. When she says "you're counting my feathers" I started thinking about that line. The tradition of putting feathers in one's hat came about after a hunt. The number of feathers indicated the number of kills. A bit later she says "the bow and the belt," also symbols of the hunt. So is she saying that he sees her as being this vindictive person that she pretends to be? B/c she says "you know them all well, all favorites of mine." Another idea I had is about Northern Lad. Most people agree that it's a sequel to hey Jupiter. I think so too and noticed something the other day. Near the end, where she's doing the "becau-au-au-se" parts, it's kind like in hJ w/ the ooohs, don't you think? One last thing: in the discussion of what each album represents, has anybody thought they could be seasons? I see it this way: LE=spring UtP=summer BfP=fall FtCH=winter I still agree w/ the elemental ideas but those albums have those kind of seasonal moods to them for me. On the elemental ideas: Cooling was held off of BfP, which is the "fire" album. She put it as a bee side to FtCH, the "water" album. In the song, she says "fire thought she'd really rather be water instead." Hmm. Food for thought.

Franklin" Subject: Beenie Baby...I'm her man.... Hi, all...I haven't posted in a while and after seeing Storytellers, I have been meaning to ask everyone about this. Forgive me if someone has already posted something to this effect, as I don't always get to read all the posts. Right before Tori played Raspberry Swirl on Storytellers, she started saying something to this effect...(forgive me for not quoting her exactly) "I play a certain role in my relationships with some of my women friends....I hope my dad's not watching this....the straightjacket is coming. But, I keep telling him, you know gays and lesbians he just has to get used to it cuz one day one of the nieces or nephews is gonna be one. Beenie, who is the love of my life, my husband understands this....we are married. We are absolutely married. I adore her with all my heart. She's dated some idiots in her life...I hope you're watching. I want you to know what I think of you... and in another life I'm going to kick her ass. In fact, I'm going to kick it right now, cuz this is for her....and I'm in love with her." I am so confused! I know that I have read interviews with Tori in which she said that she has never slept with another woman but did anyone else notice how her eyes lit up when she was talking about Beenie? She was positively glowing. It was shocking to me that if she is "in love" with Beenie, like she says plainly (and repeatedly I might add) that she would be married to Mark who we hardly ever hear a word about. I am not saying that she is secretly gay and doesn't want to come out or anything like that. But, even if she were, I'm not sure she'd choose to admit to everyone anyway because it would indeed make things hard on her with her father being a minister and all. At least, that's how I see it. I mean, we all know Tori is not one to hide or lie on anyone's behalf. But, everyone has their weaknesses, too. Also, I thought it was strange how she started out saying, "I play a certain role with some of my female friends..." and then goes on to say, "I hope my dad's not watching.......you just have to get used to the idea of gays and lesbians...." etc. and then starts talking about how she's "absolutely married" to Beenie. I mean....in my opinion, if you love your friend in a friendly way, you don't describe it that way. I am just wondering if anyone knows more about this.... I am sure that there's going to be some controversy about this.....bring it on! ;-) I am curious to know what other people took from what you said. And, believe me....I've watched it several times to be objective and not take it that way, but I just can't take it any other! It's just so cut and dry as far as I can see. I look forward to hearing everyone else's voice on this one. Cheerios!

Like I said before, I can play and sing by ear but I certainly do NOT have perfect pitch. I just thought in any of the biographies she would have mentioned it. And, although it is not very useful to s sound engineer or any random musician, those of us struggling through ear training classes are extremely envious of those who have it. Regarding sight-reading, I never said Tori uses her sight reading skills, I"m not trying to refute the fact that she plays by ear, I was just saying that she CAN. Gosh, I never thought this topic would get so many responses. I'm sorry to those I offend but I'm stating what is true to me, in my life as a voice major at Indiana University.

Thanks for your insights, Erin. Alrighty - Little Earthquakes would be about winter - the song, the China video, and the general mood of the whole thing. UTP - Fall. Most of the videos from that time are set in a fall-like season. There are dried, colorful leaves around Tori's hair. BfP - Check out the artwork and the general steaminess of the album. Summer, definitely. Summer in the catskills. Way down in the hot south. FtCGH - spring - she deals with the rebirth of all she's done thus far, as well as dealing with death.

Does anyone know if Purple People was supposed to be a BfP bee side either? Because the line in Cooling that Erin states just reminded me of the line in Purple People "thunder wishes it could be the snow.."

I'm going to get personal with this, as it's a very untouched issue and the only person I've encountered to bring it up is Tori. She's my favorite. I have had a couple of female friends that I can say I was attracted to. That doesn't mean I'm gay. I admired them so much and we got along so well that sometimes I would stop and wonder. You know how you meet someone for the first time and you just become infatuated with them and couldn't learn enough about them? Well, that's how I felt. You meet someone that, although they're your same sex and you're into guys, you feel that, in another life, at another time, they could definitely be your soulmate. So, I guess I'm a rasberry swirlgirl. I'm not bisexual because I can't imagine making out with a girl - I've tried and it just switches to boys and I'm pretty happy with my boy - but I would indeed classify myself as a Rasberry Swirl girl. Thank you, Tori, for giving it a name. It's perfectly natural to have crushes on your lady friends. Cosmopolitan will help you out with that, if you have any questions. heh heh. I don't know if this makes it less confusing. It seems natural to me. I don't have the friendships of these women anymore - maybe because they felt the same and it just wasn't going anywhere, the normal friendship was ruined. I don't know if I could talk about it intimately with my friends like that. i've told my boyfriend, and he understands so I'm sure Mark does to.

Tori must be able to sightread somewhat. > Remember the "Live To Tell" story? I don't remember who it was, but > the guy asked her to play this at a concert, gave Tori the sheet > music beforehand, and she did play it. That's not true. Tori had someone transcribe the lyrics from the record so she could learn the words, and she and Steve Caton learned the song from listening to it. (She ended up playing it solo, however. Although she brought paper with the lyrics on them with her to the piano, they fell down during the song and she continued unimpeded. I was there.) That guy, J'ason, moved Saturday, and was going to be without email until he got a new account. He should have a new one soon, and let us all know what it is. He runs ToriPhoria, and he'll have a new URL for it when he gets his new account, and I'm sure he'll post here when that happens. I was trying to stay out of the "does Tori know how to read music" debate because I don't have anything definitive, but I want to say that even though the title of her record "Y Kant Tori Read" would indicate otherwise, I believe she can read some, but that it's a pain for her, as it was for me when I was playing in school bands and orchestras. That always inspired me to use the music as more or less a guide, but to learn the music mainly by ear and just sort of follow along with the sheet music during performances in case I forgot what the heck I was supposed to be doing. I recall seeing somewhere that Tori would ask her siblings to play her music homework assignments so she could learn them by ear, but the impression I got for the interview in which I saw that (which I spent a little bit of time looking for but didn't find it) was that she could read the music in some sense, but not real easily or with great facility. I'm not sure that interview would verify this one way or the other, anyway. To the person who said that Tori writes music therefore she can read music, I want to say that I've seen nothing to indicate that Tori composes by any means other than through playing music. I have every reason to believe she does not compose on paper, the same as Paul McCartney--who has said in interviews that he doesn't *want* to learn to read music because he fears it would stunt his creativity--does not.

I am not saying that she is secretly gay and doesn't want to come out or anything like that. >> my .02¢ on the matter as follows.. i think that tori may have a bit of bisexual feelings in her, but that she basically prefers "third leg." sarah machlachlan has a husband and kids (i believe i'm right though on the kids part i could be wrong!) and i've read interviews where she confesses to having decidedly homosexual interludes. but does one's actions and fantasies necessarily make one homosexual? i think of sarah as more straight than anything else and the same goes for tori. but then when we get trapped in the labeling system of "straight" "bi" and "gay," we are treading into hot water. because those three labels are too neat and tidy to encompass all of humanity. there are some people i know who consider themselves on the cusp of one group overlapping into another. what does that make them? and yes, there are some people who fit very nicely into these cubbyholes, like myself. unfortunately (or fortunately i haven't decided heh) i am strictly dickly. sorry so vulgar but i heard it once and laughed so hard i promised myself i'd use it someday. anyways.. i am straight as they come. but i don't judge people, and carly i'm not saying you're judging tori when you say this, that you wonder about tori, cus you know what, i was wondering for a while there too when i saw storytellers. but ultimately i came to this conclusion: there are different types of love, some are completely pure and spiritual, focusing on the intellect and soul, some are just lust-related, love of aesthetically pleasing features and such, and the third kind of love is a perfect comingling of both. i think that beenie IS tori's love. the first kind of love more than anything else. and i'm daring to guess that mark is tori's love in the sense of the third kind of love (have i lost you yet?!). so by saying you're in love with someone or even joking around that you're married does not have to associate with that eternal, till-death-do-us-part serious kind of love. does anyone have any peektures of beenie?! i've never seen what she looks like and now i'm even more curious. love, annie ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 6 Apr 1999 21:28:59 EDT From: Belle7719@aol.com Subject: sister janet and kate chopin i read that book, it's a disturbingly beautiful book. "the awakening" it's called. it's about the spiritual liberation of a woman in the eighteen or seventeen hundreds, back when corsets and petticoats weren't all that confined women. anyways -- I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT HOW IT ENDS TO RELATE IT TO "SISTER JANET" SO IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK AND DON'T WANT ME TO RUIN IT, DON'T SCROLL DOWN!! *warning it's really long, read only if severely bored* * ** *** **** ***** ****** ******** ******** ********* ********** okies. so like i was saying, the main character in this book, her name escapes me at this moment, is a very depressed woman. she feels trapped in her marriage, suffocated by her children. she stays at the beach with her family and some friends nearby and goes through the motions of being in touch with society, but nothing makes her happy till she meets this young guy, whom she befriends and ends up falling in love with. but of course they can't be together. even though he makes half hearted plans with her to run away, he ends up chickening out or sumthin and in the lowest state she's ever been, she somehow finds the stregth to sever the ties that bind her to her unhappiness, and she walks calmly down to the shoreside and wades out farther and farther till the waves reach far over her head, and then she just surrenders her life and body to the ocean. so she commits suicide at the end.. now. marianne, the girl that tori talks about in this song, "sister janet," and also in the same titled song on Boys for Pele, supposedly committed suicide by drug overdose. tori speaks of marianne as being a wonderful person full of love for everyone. yet she must have been deeply unhappy inside to do so many drugs. i'm with tori when she says she doesn't think it's that marianne committed suicide, that it was an accident. so to relate this song to "the awakening," i think that tori must have read it, and she saw how the peripheral character of sister janet really had a lot of power in the book although she's not a main character, and she penned this incredible song about living a lie, how "a wing can cover all sorts of things." there are a lot of references to suicide in this song, such as the "blade slipping in" part, the marianne reference, and to me the candles part, i don't know why. it makes me think of the solemnity associated with them, the sanctity and silence of a church during a funeral, beauty in the face of death. the book is like that. it ends with a death, something we recoil and shudder at, yet it is written so beautifully that we succumb to it, accept it. much like the ill-fated character succumbs to her watery grave. and now go read the lyrics to "sister janet" that i've posted below and see if you can piece together my disjointed rambling. :)~ ta ta annie "Sister Janet" Master Shaman, I have come with my dolly from the shadow side with a demon and an Englishman, I'm my mother I'm my son nobody else is slipping the blade in easy nobody else is slipping the blade in the marmalade but all the angels and all the wizards, black and white, are lighting candles in our hands can you feel them, yes, touching hands before our eyes and I can even see sweet Marianne Sister Janet, you have come from the women clothed with the sun your veil is quietly becoming non Call the Wanderer he has gone and all those up there are making it look so easy with your perfect wings A wing can cover all sorts of things this again well I think I could try this once again but all the angels and all the wizards, black and white, are lighting candles in our hands can you feel them, yes, touching hands before our eyes and I can even see sweet Marianne ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V4 #100 *************************************
