[mattlarson ] Re: [sheryl-crew] Misery, I mean Missouri ["Christina Clark" Subject: Re: [sheryl-crew] Re: sheryl-crew-digest V3 #169 You were so right about the thing that a semi-acoustic guitar may sound really good plugged but terrible unplugged. The guy who helped me at the store when I was looking around today, said the same day. He said to me that because I'm not performing on stage or anything, I better pick an acoustic guitar, cause then you can get more for your money (some if it also goes to the pick up) plus you can always have it made electric when you decide to play in a band or something. So now I'm back to acoustic steel string. I've tried out Martin (with a solid top), Washburn (D10?) and one really great one called Tikiamine or something? It was made of a special kind of wood and way over my budget ( I want to spend $350 till $500). Only it had no pickguard and the wood didn't shine. But I'm going to look again next friday and take my guitarteacher with me.

Some of these just brought about some very interesting mental pictures; such as Sheryl and Owen sitting around eating beef, pork, Jell-O salad with Marshmellows, and drinking beer getting ready to go "cow tipping" but instead they head to bed as Sheryl puts on her tube socks and flannel nightie to spice things up. YOU KNOW YOU'RE FROM MISSOURI IF: You've never met any celebrities. Your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a tractor on the highway. "Vacation" means driving through Arnold or going to Six Flags. You've seen all the biggest bands ten years after they were popular. You measure distance in minutes. Down south to you means Tennessee. You know several people who have hit a deer. You think Missouri is spelled with an "a" at the end. Your school classes were canceled because of cold. Your school classes were canceled because of heat. You've ridden the school bus for an hour each way. You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day. You think ethanol makes your truck "run a lot better." You know what's knee-high by the Fourth of July. You see people wear bib overalls at funerals. You see a car running in the parking lot at the store with no one in it no matter what time of the year. You end your sentences with an unnecessary preposition. Example: Where's my coat at?" or "If you go to the mall I wanna go with." All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, or grain. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked. You think of the major four food groups as beef, pork, beer, and Jell-O salad with marshmallows. You carry jumper cables in your car. You know what "cow tipping" or "Possum Kicking" is. You only own 3 spices: salt, pepper, and ketchup. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit. You think everyone from a bigger city has an accent. You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightie. The local paper covers national and international headlines on one page but requires 6 pages for sports. You think 44 is spelled "farty-far." You think that deer season is a national holiday. You know which leaves make good toilet paper. You find 105 degrees F "a little warm." You know all 4 seasons: Almost summer, summer, Still summer, and Construction. You know if another Missourian is from eastern, middle or western Missouri as soon as they open their mouth. You think "frog gigging" should be an Olympic sport You think Imo's is larger than Pizza Hut. You failed world geography in school because you thought Cuba and Mexico were cities in Missouri. You actually get these jokes and forward them to all your Missouri friends. Don't forget, we think fine dinning is STEAK n Shake!!!!! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2000 23:46:54 +0200 From: Brigitte and/or Michael Subject: Re: [sheryl-crew] Guitar lesson Yeah, you're right Linda. The way my teacher described it was much easier then in the Tabbook of TNMC. Still when I tried to play along with the cd it went much to fast that Bm chord is really nasty. But here's what I did, I downloaded a midifile of Strong Enough put it in my keyboard (which has a diskdrive to play midifiles) and set the tempo a lot slower then normal. It does sound a little weird but at least I can practice a little with it. I also think that most of the songs Sheryl plays are too hard for a beginner. Like most of the song of TGS are played in a different tuning. I don't know how to do that and if I knew I have retune my guitar everytime. Also of some of the songs I know the chords but not the strum rhythm.

I was just wondering why all the lyrics of the songs that talk about "love" in sheryl albums just like: It donīt hurt, ordinary morning, sad sad world,and so on; talk about a man leaving her and breaking up their relationship. why is always Sheryl the one who suffers? Why canīt she be the one who says it is over? And enjoy her freedom? Keep rocking!! gemma ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2000 20:43:19 -0400 From: mattlarson Subject: Re: [sheryl-crew] sheryl love songs? Perhaps its harder to write a song like that. One of my favorite local artist many years ago had a song that you might like the title was "Glad You're Gone" but it was really in jest because the lyrics concentrated so much on it that in the end you could tell the the singer was was *not* really glad his lover left because otherwise he wouldn't have been so focused on singing about it....On second thought it sounds closer to "It dont hurt"....oh well... I was trying to think of a song where the singer does leave his/her romantic interest, but I couldn't think of any - but "I *know* there out there".... gemma hereter wrote: > > Hello Crew! > > I was just wondering why all the lyrics of the songs that talk about "love" > in sheryl albums just like: It donīt hurt, ordinary morning, sad sad > world,and so on; talk about a man leaving her and breaking up their > relationship. why is always Sheryl the one who suffers?

Sad, sad world, well that could be about any failed relationship (lots of people speculate it was her response to the TNMC thing). Her songs about being dumped, well that's because it's from her Point of view..In the Difficult Kind she says its her fault..She's not just blaming all this stuff on the guy. In fact she doesn't really place the blame on anyone in most of them like IDH..If she had to many songs about being happy she broke up with the guy she'd be called a man hater & a male basher by the media. In her songs she's singing about the hurt, not hatred for the person..and even if you were the one to break it off, most of the time you still feel emotional about it. - ---------------------------------------------------- Sheryl Crow : If It Makes You Happy Join Care2.com's Race for the Rain Forest!
