Title: "A Thousand Miles" must have made V a lot of money...

I mean, this year she hasn't released anything and only played a handful of dates. How does she afford to live? And she's travelled a bit this year, too.

I guess this is an appreciation thread for "A Thousand Miles" - not only is it the song that 'made' her, but it also allows her to keep doing what she's doing.

:)

True. She's probably made enough money off of that song to live pretty comfortably. The Zales commercials a couple years back helped too, I'm sure.

Well think about it, in NF she says "take away my record deal, go on I don't need it" so she's not hurting in her beautiful apartment.
I always have appreciated ATM I just think it was and still is overplayed. It's a beautiful song with a lot of classical elements. I love the piano and orchestration.

LOL, I just said something along these lines in the impatient thread. If V has invested her money right she probably will never need to use music to specifically make money to meet essential needs again unless she wants to.

I always think back about how V said ATM is the song that allows her to write songs about vampire wars.

I remember that quote too! Classic V! I hope she continues to write songs about vampire wars, sylphs, and london's winding streets!
