Notice the wording - "if there's a part of you, of Polly [Jean Harvey], of Bjork, or of Courtney Love, which is the black widow," You see the OR of Courtney Love transition? She is separationg Courtney from Polly, Bjork and herself. Makes it defined. Interesting huh ? :::sly grin::: >> She says "or Courtney Love" because the interviewer had mentioned her previously. j'ason ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 18 Mar 2001 00:26:52 -0500 From: "Kelly Webb" Subject: Re: The dent/@forumz board i will admit, when i first went to the forums i was a little intimidated... but after a while i felt more comfortable and started to post more. there are some really cool toriphiles there. that place is like my second home. i drop by at least once a day... i post under tripping sleeping beauty. - -kelly "socks and mittens are my friends" http://running.inmyhead.net _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 17 Mar 2001 19:31:26 -0500 (EST) From: Richard Handal Subject: Live Raincoat and Twinkle Hello: I didn't want to usurp Nadyne or anyone else, but I guess she doesn't have her files down under with her. I'll quote an old post of hers instead-- >Date: Tue, 16 Nov 1999 11:07:40 -0500 >To: precious-things@smoe.org >Subject: The 80s single [ . . . ] The FBR and Twinkle, the live bee-sides, are from the Santa Barbara show, 20 September 1998. And I'm sure this has already been said, but Baker Baker and Winter from the other 80s single (as well as the US 1000 Oceans single) are from 23 November 1998. I -adore- this version of FBR. /nad And it's my understanding that Tori told a girl at the meet and greet in the afternoon before the Tampa show in 1999--the second show of the 5 1/2 Weeks Tour--that the version of Twinkle this girl had gotten as the result of her request at that California show the previous year was going to be a b-side. I didn't hear the girl's reaction. :-) Be seeing you, Richard Handal, H.G. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 18 Mar 2001 02:01:52 EST From: Cindy2Love@aol.com Subject: re: pro widow / she's your cocaine interpretation Some people were still asking where I got quotes from and another beautifully laid out site I totally forgot to mention and I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to visit for quotes about songs is the: Tori Amos Lyrics Database http://www.powerup.com.au/~evos/dan/tori/tald.html I think everyone should see it! Check it out :-) Oh and....... I feel that when tori included pj harvey and bjork in what she said about professional widow - how petty and bitchy would it sound to say it's just about courtney love - and tori would never be like that... She's always says the nicest things about bjork and pj so I feel she was just including them in what she said to not make it sound like she was singling out courtney...

I got all that nastiness out. The truth is, if there's a part of you, of Polly [Jean Harvey], of Bjork, or of Courtney Love, which is the black widow, then you will relate to the song. If people don't feel that way, they won't resonate with it."> is tori bad-mouthing pj harvey and bjork? i certainly hope not. i absolutely adore both of them (especially pj) and would be heart-broken if tori thought bad of them. i wouldn't think she would....i am sure i am just misreading...misinturpretting!!!!!! >> And I found the quotes from Modern Rock Live May 10, 1998 regarding "She's Your Cocaine" Interviewer: What's this about "She's Your Cocaine?" - Interesting title. Tori: It's about me being me being umm really strappy and umm vile because somebody uhh finds a woman that's a black hole - that isn't a woman's woman interesting.... Ya know a lot of guys and a lot of them are on my crew....They're like my brothers and umm it blows me away sometimes the women they're attracted to....Let's be honest here...The women they're attracted to right - me and beanie who's my bestfriend and karen and ? we would NEVER like even if they were crawling we wouldn't give them the worm at the end of the tequilla bottle - FORGET IT - they could beg, crawl, dog on your knees - hopefully lick the sand....They wouldn't get a chance.....These girls - let me tell you something - they're not women - they have this little thing - this little beard between their legs and they're snake - they're reptilian...I don't want to hurt the poor snake life even...It's a cut to the snake world...But these girls they're takers and guys don't see it because they don't come across..It's not like they sit there - they do their killing - say we're eating dinner right and one of these girls is at the table and there's a big party of us....Some of these guys are going 'Oh isn't she the sweetest thing you've ever seen?' And you're going she just MURDERED the girl next to you...The girl you brought is like a walking corpse because of this other girl.....Like ::chopping noise:: over the head.... They don't even get these slime walking........... Interviewer jumps in: But it's on both sides....Smart women, foolish men....Foolish choices... Tori: No, no, no sorry max I hate to burst your bubble, but men are obvious....I don't know men that - they can't connive the same way....Let me tell you what the difference is...The difference is.....These women try to get in and act like they're your friend - they act like they're your bestfriend...So they find out all your secrets, they find out everything and then they go to your man or to your other friends and just completely RUIN your relationships with them....I'm telling you....They are lucifer....They are lucifer with boobs....
