Greetings peoples,

EIG is in Aimee Mann's top 12 in the most recent Australian Who - this is what she says: "This record was really a bolt from the blue and completely changed my perception about how honest one could be in a song and the topics one can deal with lyrically" (#7). The others were Elton John, Badfinger, Randy Newman, Elliott Smith, Loud Family, Coldplay (WHY??????), Elvis Costello, Honeydogs, Frank Sinatra, Neil Young and the Zombies. My god I so agree with everyone about the horror of seeing Liz (A) playing at the Blender show and doing Flower for all the misogynists and (B) having her shot taken with Paris Hilton - wow she's really made it now! Must also agree with the person (sorry forgot your name) who said he's pretty much only on the list for all the other people mentioned on here - I too have moved on from Liz even though EIG ( as well as Celebrity Skin & Live Through This) was a fucking revelation for my 16 year old self those 5 years ago and I have so many Liz memories. !
 My most recent obsession has been Lush (met a guy on the Echo & Bunnymen board who went to Uni with them and still knows them, how bloody cool is that?) and can now say that my favs are Lush, Tegs & Sars, Sneaker Pimps and Echo. Anyways it has been an interesting 5 years on this list and I have gotten into so many artists cause of it that I wouldn't have otherwise - Aimee & Til Tuesday, Jen, Kathleen Edwards, Mary Timony/Helium, Caitlin Cary, Eleni Mandell etc etc and if I do return it will be for all the other people mentioned - you people are nearly my ONLY source of new music. Does anyone know of any Liz sites to visit in Europe? Pretty much THE only reason I'm going to Liverpool is cause Echo are from there...and they still live there, hmmm...the possibilities...Thanks HEAPS to the guy in Melbourne (?) who sent me the Liz bootleg 5 years ago - the first time I heard Fuck and Run, ah...Also thanks to all the people who made this list was it is including: Stephen (you fuc!
 king rock dude - am following your footsteps into librarianship...), t
he 2 Dans, Trent, dP, Ally (only support-systemer I've met offline) and Andrea W (who I'm still emailing 5 years later).

Have fun,
Sally
