That would be so weird if she actually did have a song of the same name.

She does, yeah. 

I don't know why but I was expecting a better song than what I just listened to.  But alas...

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Re: Is vanessa going to come out with a 4th?

« on: July 29, 2009, 11:48:23 pm »

If you had a chance to name her 4th album what would you call it?

That's a good question.  But without knowing what the rest of the tracks sound like and their meanings, I wouldn't be able to suggest anything appropriate yet.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Re: Do you guys think Vanessa would do Lilith Fair?

« on: July 16, 2009, 11:54:27 am »

I had a dream last night where I met Sarah McLachlan and she was telling everyone that Lilith Fair was on again, after all these years.  That being said, I think it would an awesome opportunity for Vanessa to be a part of the Fair!  At least there would be a chance of her coming to Vancouver again.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / A Thousand Miles mentioned on Rick Dees!

« on: July 11, 2009, 11:27:06 am »

I don't listen to the countdown at all, but he's apparently counting down the top #1's of this decade.  Vanessa is at #23!  Oh how time flies...

Eww.  That was pretty yucky.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Re: you know what would be cool to hear?

« on: April 28, 2009, 06:33:55 pm »

Hmm, yeah that would be really interesting.  I think it would be kinda funny if she turned it into a "Vanessa dark" kind of song ("You know I'd walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight... or would I?....) 

That sounded a lot funnier in my head.  But anyhoo, yes, I agree with you.  If I had to choose between that and new stuff, I'd choose new stuff though.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Re: New update! :D

of course she does not mean the inc. she is talking about past there... about a&m

Yeah, I got that impression too...

She parted ways with Universal Records last year, sometime after the release of her 2007 album "Heroes and Thieves."  

It's the Inc.  She was long gone from A&M by that time.

The Seahawk: What advice would you give those, students in particular, who want to get into a musical career?

Carlton: Avoid at all costs

lol...

nice interview.

Yeah, that's definitely encouraging, haha.

Thanks for the article!  Great little interview.  I really enjoyed reading that.

I didn't hear anything about her leaving the Inc., but I guess she has?  I'm happy and proud that she's getting to do what she finally wants, by her own terms.  Hopefully someone'll record the show on Saturday (maybe she'll be playing some more new songs?) for those who aren't in the area.  

And a new album before the end of the year!  OMG!!!!

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Premiere of instrumental "waltz"

« on: March 09, 2009, 04:59:18 pm »

So awesome!  "Waltz" and "London" are great!  I can't wait to get clearer versions of the songs, like what happened with "All is Well" when it first got premiered.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Star Spangled Banner?

« on: September 12, 2008, 07:27:43 pm »

I tried to rip it using Orbit's Grab function, but the only it detects is this stupid little animation thing, so I can't help you out there.  

I found the introduction to Vanessa kinda funnily formal, what with including her record company.  Then again, I'm Canadian and I don't know how they introduce people who sing the anthem.  

One more thing: is it just me or is she singing it really really well?  Almost... too well?  Until the very end, it sounds almost like she's lip synching.  Maybe it's just me.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Songs for Tibet

Is this available anywhere in stores in Canada?  It's on the HMV.ca website but apparently there aren't any in stock anywhere.

Yep.  Sounds like the live version she does with the cute guitar dude, which is awesome.  I'm assuming it's going to be available at any CD/record store, so I better be able to frickin' find it!!!

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Fiona Apple sheet music

« on: July 13, 2008, 01:03:51 pm »

What songs are you looking for and which ones have you found?  The book for Tidal isn't the best; the right hand plays the melody and not what she actually plays.  

I haven't seen anything from Extraordinary Machine though.
