Registration is free. I just saw it. The video itself has a desolate feel - I think Immi was conceiving of her Dreamland or something like that. She isn't playing any instruments. Very dark. There isn't anyone else in the video besides her, except maybe these dark figures that you can't make out anyway (maybe representing the boy?) It's a spooky video. On a sidenote, I just got Kevin's CD with the early recordings of Rhythm of Life, Missing You, Aliens, and If Only I was a Butterfly. The songs are good, but definitely not as mature and sophisticated as her material now, which is completely understandable b/c those recordings are from 94-95, so she must have been 14-15 when she did em. My initial impression was that they are very 80s, but I think that's the wrong word. Probably... adolescent, earnest, sweet is closer - but that's entirely appropriate since she _was_ 14. Her voice is of course deep and husky, like it is now, so I guess sweet doesn't seem too appropriate either. Rhythm of Life is a dance number, and closer to the material Immi is into now, I think. Anyway, sorry if these inital reviews are bad, I only listened to em once, and saw the video once. You decide for yourself :) Kevin, wonderful artwork. Thanks! :) Shirley Ye Berkeley, California shye@uclink4.berkeley.edu I am not an angry girl, but it seems like I've got everyone fooled. Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger and never to their own fear. - -Ani Difranco, Not a Pretty Girl ------------------------------ End of wireless-digest V2 #48 *****************************
