Maybe if we do have a tree then we could just keep it small, I don't know if that defeats the purpose though. Tell me what you guys think.... till next time...see you in the dreamtime...

I don't fully understand what they mean exactly, but I do feel the meaning in my heart. Talula seems to describe me in some weird, bizarre way. I've always felt a special kinship to Talula that I can't explain, so I've adopted Talula as my nickname, screen name, etc. so when I hear Talula, it feels like Tori is singing to me :) And Cooling....god I LOVE that song. Not so much the version on Venus, because she cuts out my favorite part (but do I hate what she is, but do I want to be her) It always makes me cry and its helped me soooooo much. >> Hey, which version of Talula? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2001 19:17:26 EST From: JNe9027355@aol.com Subject: LE-live, the indistinguishable lyrics In a message dated 2/16/2001 10:32:36 PM Pacific Standard Time, owner-precious-things-digest@smoe.org writes: << The iiieeeeee (repeated) and eeeeeeeeeeee (arpeggio-ing from note to note) is so loud, to me meaning, (her aner and frustration) jesus, look how traumatic all this shit we're going through is, and then the sarcasm of the tiny voice saying (don't worry I won't lead on about our problems) oh, these little earthquakes, like, they're really no big deal.

To my knowledge, Hurt only came before CALS, Bells for Her, Lovesong, and Talula on the Dew Drop Inn Tour. All harpsichord songs. j'ason In a message dated 2/28/2001 8:23:14 PM Eastern Standard Time, devilpug@swbell.net writes: << When all the talk about the history of Tori and Trent came up I went looking through some of my old stuff and found a song where she starts singing a somber song that I can't make out-not a good copy-but then she breaks in to Hurt and changes some of the wording: "I hurt myself today to see if I could feel. I hurt myself You said to try and make him feel. I hurt myself again to see if he would see me I hurt myself again I know we never could see me." Then she sings Springtime. I have heard the first part but can't place it but the rest of Hurt is pretty clear. Just thought I would throw it out there.

Im wondering if this is the record > company's trick to market the album as a rarity to earn more value > and cash for it.... "Over the Pink" is a commercial bootleg. In general, commerical bootlegs are printed in (relatively) small quantities -- usually less than 10,000 of each title are printed [1]. Since boots are illegal, and you can't just get them in any store, there's little reason for the commercial bootlegger to print off that many copies. They'll never be able to sell all of 'em, and having that many copies around increases the liklihood of getting caught. As for legitimate limited edition releases, the record company does that simply to increase interest. In general, the record company doesn't make much more on a limited edition than it does a regular one. Take, for example, the limited edition releases of Tori's UK singles. When they first came out, they didn't sell in stores for any more than the "regular" edition. And hell, look at the US Winter "limited edition". That thing is still available in every CD store on the planet for around five bucks. You can't convince me that Atlantic is rakin' in the dough on that one. /nm [1] There are obvious exceptions to this, such as the billion bootlegged or pirated copies of YKTR available. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2001 22:45:00 -0800 From: "Megasus" Subject: "KNDD End Sessions" Seattle 98 tree info Hey everybody! I was away from Precious Things for awhile, and I hope it's okay to cross-post this. Lately there was a discussion on the ML about the show called "End Sessions". Many people knew about this only referred to by the studio released CD "End Sessions" which included a live version of "Playboy Mommy" This show was part of an intimate concert series held by KNDD "The End" in Seattle, WA in 1998. (www.kndd.com or www.1077theend.com )It was a mini concert performed in front of a group of about 50 lucky fans who won tickets through the radio station. Between each song on this short list, Tori gave a cute story about the song's origin. Here is the setlist: Sister janet Leather Purple People Playboy Mommy Honey (Sorry if you've already recieved similar info on this show) Anyway, I offered to make copies of my CD, as I seem to be one of the few who has it. The "End Sessions" are recorded after concerts and played on the following Sundays. There have been manymany End Sessions, and so far the station has released 2 limited pressing CDs with compilations from these mini-concerts. I happened to catch the Tori set on the radio and recorded her whole set. Kindly, somebody transferred it to a CD for me, and now only a few people have copies. I recieved quite a response to my post, so I think the best solution is to create a tree to distribute this show properly to all of you wonderul fans out there who'd love to hear it, and I'm more than obliged to head this project. It has been one of my favorite shows, with some of my favorite b-sides. Since the set is so short, the person who made the CD for me added some cool filler... other b-sides and live stuff. I'll grab my CD and get a list of these, or maybe when a tree is formed the group can decide what else to throw on as filler, if anything. All suggestions are welcome, and branches are greatly appreciated if you're willing to help. I'll make as many copies as I can to get the ball rolling, but I think quite a few are interested in this. I've decided to go ahead and setup this group so that interested parties may invite themselves, or I can send invitations. so if you'd like to join this tree, please go here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EndSessionsTree When you get there and sign in (you may have to fix your egroups/yahoo ID or something. They're a buncha bums) just click on "Database", then "Branch of leaf" and add your email address under whichever line you choose. I will be the main branch, and I'll send it out to the other branches, who will send it out to the leaves. Sound cool? I should probably put a cap on subscriptions, because I'm leaving town at the end of March, but we'll hopefully have this rolling by then. As always, any ideas, comments or suggestions are completely welcome. This is my first time at organizing a tree, and I'm definitely open for input. :) Thanks everybody, hope to see you there! ~~Meg P.S. If you already made arrangements with me and would rather be part of this tree to help things along, just go ahead and add yourself and we'll work out the details. Also, I have a simple set of artwork which I made for this a long time ago. I will have them uploaded ASAP, and if you don't like them, I'll upload all the pics I have from the session itself and let you guys have at creating your own work. :) Here's to hoping this all goes smoothly! Thanks! ~~Megasus ;) ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V6 #39 ************************************
