In the UK, the HJ single (actually, it's an EP, but the designation appears to be somewhat arbitrary) we're all familiar with was released as a double A-side -- that is, it was to promote two songs on the album, not one. So, in Europe, it's not the HJ single, it's the HJ/PW single. Instead of the live "merry widow" version of PW, they get one of the endless dance remixes. It's still in print in Europe, so it's not worth anything more than any other in-print Euro single. You can get it from www.amazon.co.uk the last time I checked. Call it $15, after you factor in the exchange rate and shipping. Very -very- few of the BfP-era items have increased in value. Some of the promos have, but none of the singles have. If you have a BfP item, you can generally count on it being worth not more than $20. /nad ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2000 10:07:42 EST From: "sweet alyssum" Subject: mixtapecircle The Mix Tape Circle is now closed.

Not only providing the beats for Fiona Apple's "When The Pawn", and of course with Tori, and indeed his own band, but (and this might be old news) he was the drummer on Macy Gray's "On How Life Is..." -which, I guess, makes sense considering the Andrew Slater / Epic Records connection, but still, I hadn't noticed it before and wondered if everyone knew? He's been on some pretty succesful albums of late! [He can't, of course, be in Macy's live band, as he's on tour with Fiona at the moment, no?] Cheers Mike ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2000 19:51:39 PST From: "Paige Fetish" Subject: Re:Ananda who sounds like Tori http://rollingstone.tunes.com/sections/dds/artist.asp?Artist=9213 that link will take you to the page where you can download the song with the weird tori similiarities.

It's the strangest thing... I'm sure it does refer to God motoring around with recreational equipment in the back seat -- going off to fiddle while Rome burns,so to speak -- while we're all down here struggling to get by and wondering where the hell He is when we need Him. But the strange thing is that whenever I've listened to this line up until now, my subconscious interpretation has always been that the club is there as a weapon, to fend people off when they get a little demanding or ardent or something. Sort of similar to saying "You got your rifle under the seat just in case." I have this picture of God driving along and whenever anyone bothers Him, He just reaches into the back seat, grabs the handy-dandy 9 iron, and conks them over the head, *poof!* ... "Problem solved. Now back to Me." It's never been anything more than a vague bit of imagery I've always had ... I never really thought about the literal meaning of that line until Giovanni asked this question. But I'm certain if the words had been "you got your golf clubs in the back seat just in case," I never would have been envisioning a raging God roving the countryside leaving a string of upscale recreationally-themed vengeance in His wake. And that's been sort of fun. Shortly after the album came out, the whole OJ thing was in all the headlines, and of course there was the live TV coverage of the white blazer driving all over hell's half acre and then the media went absolutely nuts, so I inadvertently relate a lot of the imagery in God to that, sub-consciously. (Not that I relate God to OJ, because I don't, but just because a lot of the visual images and themes happened to intersect at the same point in time.)
