So Tori's doing both but saying the same thing. *shrug* It could have some correlation to the 10 of swords. I really don't know anything about tarot.

That's funny. I find it interesting how much some people seem obsessed by Trent and Courtney in relation to Tori. Start off with one bit of misinformation and add small amounts of presumption and I guess that's what we end up with--folks saying that not only did Tori write Case, but that she may have written it for Trent. I never heard that one before. That's the sort of thing that takes my breath away. Thanks for sharing that. You've helped but the lie to that notion. Be seeing you, Richard Handal, H.G. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 7 Dec 1999 14:27:10 EST From: Mac456789@aol.com Subject: Re: A Case of You Case of you is definitely a Joni song. It's quite a few years old...probably from the late 70s...I think. I think the album it's from has the same title, or maybe Blue something....I forget..I had it on tape years ago, but lost it, since I only have cds now. It's a great song and album, you should check it out. As a matter of fact, I always thought Tori and Jone shared many great qualities as singer song writers....except that Joni Mitchell plays the guitar.

Jemma Price does these sort of tribute albums, and at least this one with a backing band by the name of E-cypse. for what's it's worth, it's a pretty decent album...mostly sung word for word as Tori does. some of the songs are a bit different sounding cuz of the voice--jupiter, baker, china are notables in this category...her voice is *similar* sounding but with enough variation in it to make it obvious it's not tori... i found it well worth the like eight dollars USD after shipping or whatever it was. 1 c girl 2 saty 3 crucify 4 pro widow 5 cals 6 hey jupiter 7 winter 8 leather 9 china 10 baker baker ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 7 Dec 1999 19:12:41 -0500 (EST) From: Jennifer Lynn Roth Subject: scans Can someone give me the address of the scans website and/or scans or locations for the Tea With the Waitress CD?
