I am singing and playing Thank You at my wedding.. of course, the wedding date's not set yet... but.. how can you NOT sing Thank You (Tori's version of course!!)?? I've been working on playing it.. I'm not great at the piano, but I just put the song on and pound it out by ear.. i've gotten about 1/4 of the way through! stuff, micah ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2000 12:08:46 EDT From: Twinkle018@aol.com Subject: Labor Music I definately think "The Pool" (b-side of "Winter") and "Finn" (from the "Great Expectations" soundtrack)... those songs have always brought me great peace... ooh... what about "All the Girls Hate Her/Over It"? I don't know, other than that, I'd look for more of Tori's stuff w/ the great phrasing (well, I guess it's all great phrasing)... but, find ones that will help you keep different breathing patterns for different moments. Although, it will be hard to tell how long each section of labor will be. So, that could making a cassette or cd-r hard to know where you'd put things. Good luck... just some ideas...

Anyone know for sure >OR own a "Baltimore"??? I'm hella curious! You're misinterpreting what the Collectibles book says about the Baltimore single. It says that there are ten in circulation, not in existence. That means that, at the time of the publication of the book, there were ten copies of the single that were known to be in the hands of Tori collectors. That does -not- mean that Reverend Amos only had ten printed. In fact, he probably couldn't only have ten made. When you pay for your own pressing of an album like that, there are minimums as to how many you can have pressed. At that time, he would have had at least 250 made, if not 500. When something like that is published, usually the number in the hands of collectors increases. Why? Because people who were given a copy years ago by someone (likely the Reverend himself) go through their attics and discover that they still have the bloody thing. And why keep it, when you know there's someone out there willing to pay $800 and up for it? So they sell it and make quite a handsome profit. By my own counts, there are at least twice that number in the hands of collectors now. I can name at least 10 people who have them. /nad {and yes, I'm one of 'em} ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V5 #134 *************************************
