I'm dying to go see her live. Tori has no plans to tour in 2000, and we have no idea what might happen after that. You can always get the latest on Tori's touring status and if there is ANY word of a tour on my web site. Go to: http://thedent.com/tour.html That will always give you the latest!

OK I see. Where I hear "I go, I go inside her shell" You hear "I cull, I go inside her shell" Gotcha! Well, maybe because I was looking at the lyrics book it was so clear to me. OK, seems someone's gotta ask Tori at the next meet & greet! :-) As far as me missing something... well, what's new!!! LMAO :-)~ OK, one more response then I'm done...

LOL. ;) but i'll post it again: "...liquid diamonds i *cull* i go inside Her shell ..." i hear "cull." some people have two "go"s there, but it just doesn't *sound* like two "go"s. she never says "pearls." that's just something i've inferred from the sea/ jewel references. also, it seems that "cull" makes sense with "pearls." so... peace, Melanie >> Hi ya all EWF, again ~ The book is called Tori Amos Lyrics and its a total boot. Now I KNOW how boots are so RARE around here so.... LOL!!! It has no publisher, date, number or any other identifying info is given. It's just page after page of lyrics. The seller on eBay said it was made by some company overseas. Who am I to question. It's nice for those times when you say "say what Tori?" when listening to a song. You whip out your trusty boot lyric book and then go, "oh yeah!" Like I said before I've only listened to a few songs using the book but it has been right on so far. Better to have an idea, try it out and find it accurate or inaccurate for that matter than sit around not knowing what she's saying I think. Anyway... if anyone wants one look into eBay, go to the Tori stuff and type in lyric book. Its very reasonable I think. Oh, yeah... one more thaaang... the "Chicken Soup for the Ears with Feet Soul" book is printed. Turned out really fabulous! Allison & Kristen did an amazing job. I'm very impressed. KUDOS Grrrls!

That puts a whole new spin on things for me with that song. Maybe the song is meant to be like a threat to others. Ya know, stay out of my garden or else I'll dig up my datura and then you'll be sorry! haha The song is all pretty and talks about gorgeous flowers, and then there's the ever-present and ominous datura. - -jen P.S.

I have the feeling that Tori was not particularly enthusiastic about the GOT80's video. She was talking abot filming it on, I think it was Much Music, and she was kind of making fun of it and the director. > Whew! Ok, since we're on the subjects of video interpretations, anyone > have anything about the video for Spark? It's one of my favorite songs but I > don't understand what the song has to do with the video. For example, what's > up with the blond chick and the guy in the car at the end? The video is about being helpless (ie when losing a baby, which is the subject of the song). She didn't want a literal interpretation of it. There are hints ( like when she passes the tree that has the name 'Skeeter' carved in it). Another point in it was the water; water is a them in Choirgirl, and she and James Brown (the director) wanted water to be a turning point for the video's character. And the people in the car symbolize Angels. Tori wrote that after the miscarraige, everyone said, at least the angels were with you. And she said, No, they were not with me, they left me. So the angels leave the character stranded in the road, her hands still tied and bleeding. > Or Professional Widow for that matter...ooo, that could have been a kick ass > video. :-) well, there was one. But, as you probably know, it was just a compilation of other videos and it sucked.

SINGLES: i think sometimes before the glry of the 80s single, i came up witha list of maybe about 43 singles all together, including imports. its been a while, but i think that this is complete, maybe. - - baltimore US - - cool on your island US, big picture US - - me and a gun US, silent all these years US UK AUS GER, China US, Crucify US UK, Winter US UK - - Cornklake Girl US UK, God US UK, - - Talula US, ItSohV US, CaLS US UK, Hey Jupiter US, Pro Wid US - - Silent all these years RAINN US - - Blue Skies w/ BT Pt. 1 UK, Blue Skies w/ BT Pt. 2 UK - - Spark Pt. 1US Uk AUS, Jackies Strength US, JS/FL remixes US UK, raspberry Swirl/Cruel US - - Bliss US UK, 1000 Oceans US, Glory of the 80's Pt. 1 UK, Got80's Pt. 2 AUS, Concertina US if anybody wants to elaborate on this, EMAIL ME and i will try to compile a perfect list. there's got to be a discography somewhere on this, but maybe i'll be the first one. TOURING i doubt there will be any more touring until 1. theres new material to promote and 2. tori feels her son/daughter is capable of either coming along or dealing with being without her. (aaahhh can you believe shes going to have a little kiddie??? i cant wait!!! what willshe name her you wonder? oooo all this cool stuff to think about. we should all send her presents when she has her baby) VIDEOS: i thought that she said "crawl" inseatd of "cull" but maybe im wrong. it makes sense, "she crawls in side Her shell" she also probably didn't do a video for concertina because she didn't have the time? i hear she's working on a score, and she's probably extremely pregnant at this point. it would be very cute to see PreggieTori in a Concertina video (oooo pretty) but I doubt she wants to expose herself like that. But, Im sure we can expect that the movie she's doing the score for (in it neil gaiman? oh im so excited) will be ONE BIG VIDEO and we'll all be very happy. i was hoping to see a live performance video for one of the disk 2 songs (preferable purple people or cooling, you know, one of the b-sides) so anyways. i think that's all i have to say. ive gone inside my tori shell, listening to many other things and rarely even mentioning her anymore, but, dont worry, im still crazy about her. more later, courtney | sky puddles | | http://fadeddreams.net/garnet | | im the water, im the dishes, im the soap | |i will comfort make you clean help you cope| | -Sleater Kinney | ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V5 #168 *************************************
