Admittedly, I have got to say that the lyrics are weak, and the synthesizers just take away from her AND the band. Datura isn't even a song, it's a trippy instrumental. This kills me to say this, I am as huge of a Tori fan as they come. But I really think these songs REALLY could have been fantastic if maybe she had taken more time on them. Gave them spirits. This album has no emotions behind it, except in a thousand Oceans there is something there. It doesn't feel like home anymore. It's the only thing she's ever done that I don't like. Bliss and 1000 Oceans are good (as well as Suede, but unfortunately they are surrounded by weak songs) beginnings and endings, as well as gteat singles. So much more potential. :-( I'm pretty disappointed. However, the live tracks are wonderful, with Cloud on My Tongue, Bells For Her, Girl, and Space Dog, taking me back to the day. I really hope the Bosey is still in there somewhere.

I have a ticket available for the show this Saturday, 9/25 at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheater in CA. It's in Loge 5, Row JJ. I wish I had two extra tickets because this might be a tough sale. I'd like what I paid for the ticket which is: $52.50 but I'm open for negotiation if I can't find anybody willing to pay that :-) We will work out arrangements where I can somehow meet you so you don't have to worry about getting f*cked over. FYI: I live in San Diego, but I'm meeting my friends in Irvine on Saturday morning so maybe we could work it so I could give you the ticket in the morning or afternoon on the day of the show or I could work it out where I could possibly give it to you before then. Okay please email me at Cindy2Love@aol.com if you're interested.

LOL. This is freaky! I would've bet my life that it was "Proof" as well... Reminds me of something I was shown at Uni of an optical illusion - just a triangular road hazard sign with: Paris in the the Spring written inside it and apparently something-ty percent of people's brains will not bother to read it, glimpse the key words, and just assume the rest, not noticing the second "the". Hmmm. "My Head Is A Low Resolution JPEG". (and Venus is sooo weird and so beautiful) Has anyone spotted any kind of theme to the issues in TVAB yet? (love saying that... "tee-vab", much easier than "fut-tch-guh" as the last one is so charmingly known... good to see Tori's consideration of her webby fans' day to day needs) Anyway: themes - you know, like LE was "I want to begin!"-ey, and UTP was "you bitch!"-ey, and BFP was "you bastard!"-ey, and FTCGH was "no baby/getting married"-ey, (ok so I'm generalising err.. a little here). Maybe TVABs weirdness is rooted in its "surprise! it's another album! and it's twins!"-eyness.

Thanks for looking up the domain name, because it was quite helpful. Judging from the email add of the contact information, the website is hosted by the Artistdirect Network. I don't know how many of you know about this place, but it basically hosts official websites and music stores (just like i-Music or Rocktropolis do) for a number of musical artists, such as the Beastie Boys, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson etc. Anyhow, it seems that Tori Amos will probably have *another* official website. I just went there to check, and she's listed, both under the "website" and "store" category. Someone already posted that the store works (www.toriamosdirect.com), but the actual website isn't up yet. So, why have another website? The thing to note about ArtistDirect, is that they host websites for the actual artist (or their respective management/fan clubs), and NOT the record company, which is why www.toriamos.com isn't registered to Atlantic, but one of Tori's representatives. My guess is that Tori or Arthur Spivak aren't happy with the Atlantic site, or just want their own (and hopefully better :) website. I guess they got a little ahead of themselves, since it's already on the album sleeve, but if the store's already up, the website is sure to follow. There are a number of musicians out there, who have both a record label and their own homepage (like REM), so it's nothing unusual. sabrina ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 14:57:42 EDT From: Wintdve98@aol.com Subject: Re: still orbiting dates yea i think (and am almost positive) Bells For Her is 11/13/99 at Poughkeepsie (is the date right? i'm not in the right state of mind). - -Susan ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 06:59:14 -0700 From: copperdryad Subject: Re: datura vs. god mr zebra wrote: > > Is it just me or does the piano riff/drum combination at the beginning of > Datura sound EXACTLY like that of God?!? a lot of the background sounds echo past girls... most of the drum track on the studio CD sounds like "jupiter"... :\ ~~kelley ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 16:29:54 EDT From: JiVaDiVa@aol.com Subject: Tori Video What exactly was the video playing on the screens behind Jay Leno when he was announcing his guests?

I feel that music touches more when you let the context of you feeling swirl around and dance with the music! Then the song can feel different every time you listen to it! The lyrics, I always think of as poems. I just let her voice, which is the most beautiful instrument of all, accentuate my feelings. But, I love singing the songs with the lyrics.

Later that day they called my house and talked to my mom...I didn't have a clue what was going on. SO once me, my mom and my friend got there we met up with the people. The radio station was SOOO great. They traded the original tickets I had (5th row) to 1st row and then took me to sit in the place and see Tori play her soundcheck. After that they handed out Alanis backstage passes (this wasn't the BEST for me, but it was something). Then they took us down to this really icky under ground place and said "OK Susan ready to meet Tori Amos?" I went insane!! So they took me to some room and there she was, standing there in a great looking jackets and such (a different outfit from the m&g and soundcheck) and her BIG eyes looking at me. I was choking by now and mom and keri had to hold me up and walk me to her. We took a polaroid together and Tori signed it. Then she saw my LE cd and took it from my hand and said "Oh is this for me to sign?" I nodded and she signed it. We hugged twice and (from what I remember) all I could say was "I love you". I gave her my gift (necklace and a postcard with words) and she smiled and said "Thank You" then as we were leaving (i hated to part from her) she gave me one HUGE hug (lasted forever it felt) and looked at my kat ears (I love those novelty things) and purred then giggled. (skipping over meeting Alanis cause it was such a nothing kinda thing, she is so cold!!) Then I sat through the concert with AMAZING seats. Afterwards Tori came up to me and some guy pushed me (very hard) out of the way to shake Tori's hand but my mom pushed me back up and Tori snudged away the man's hand and took my hand with both of hers and winked at me.

Jay is a lot better to tori than many other late night hosts. Everytime I've seen her on Letterman, she's played, Dave has said Cool! and then cut to commercial, and said nothing else to her. The same with Conan and anywhere else she might have performed. Jay actually takes time to ask her questions. I think the reason that he seems "big duh jerk" is cause he has these questions to get across to promote her, and she always has these great tangent answers (god bless em though) that cut out on his question time. But she's always gotten like, 5 extra minutes of airtime on his show.And whenever he brings her up, he calls her cutsie names. Like, the umm, performance of hey Jupiter 3 years ago, when he met her he said "hey pal!" it was great, and it's not something one usually calls the female guests. I think they get along quite well, and that he really likes her. But those are just my observations... anybody knows you can conjure anything by the dark of the moon ~*jo§h ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 21:10:44 EDT From: GoneAndromeda@aol.com Subject: Re: BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG NEWS In a message dated 09.23.99 4.16.53 pm, Cdfreke@aol.com writes: << still has the part where she call matt something like "chikit" >> she calls matt the creature...in her tori language. she calls him that at every single show...so if that's all you are going by, i would find some other similarities. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 24 Sep 1999 00:00:57 GMT From: "Kelly Webb" Subject: Re: question about jewel case version >From: "1 bugle boy model saying 'baby, it's a freebie you sure look >deprived'" >Reply-To: "1 bugle boy model saying 'baby, it's a freebie you sure look >deprived'" >To: "Precious Things: A Tori Amos Mailing List" >Subject: question about jewel case version >Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 01:31:13 -0700 > > >has anyone actually seen tvab in the jewel case that some have been talking >about? > >someone mentioned that best buy and target have tvab in jewel case form and >someone else said wal-mart has it.........but has anyone actually seen it? > >thanks > >trent. > >"If you believe in the spirit world, you believe in it, if you don't, >that's your arrogance.

Everything she answers is with a metaphor and her answers are highly indirect. Not that it's bad, but if you think about it, someone who doesn't listen to her music a lot or hear her a lot is not used to this. To me they seem to have a good time together, like they actually like each other. He seems somewhat knowledgable of her music... but i see where you're coming from.. anthonY:) The above text is my stated opinion, which basically makes it fact. You can dispute it all you want, but the truth of the matter is, it's my e-mail and my views, and that's that. If you care to disagree, fine, but don't tell me, 'cause frankly, I could care less. I'd also thank you for your time, but it probably would've been wasted anyways, so you have contributed nothing to me.

I'm not too sure, but from what I've heard about the 1,000 Oceans video, it looks like that's what it is... I think there's info about the 1K Oceans video on the Dent... and it describes something about a glass booth that Tori is in with people surrounding it, looking in.. so that's probably what it is... especially since she did that song for the show... On another note.. somebody mentioned that Tori sang Oceans -twice- on Leno.. was that person in the audience to hear it afterwards or something?
