General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Sticker on the Album Package
« on: October 09, 2007, 07:29:09 am »
I'm a little upset by that sticker. I feel "Hands on Me" needs to be the second single. While I enjoy many of the songs on the album, I think it's the only one that could really jumpstart this album.

VANESSA CARLTON, ''Nolita Fairytale''
These days, the folk-pop princess records for gangsta-rap impresario Irv Gotti's The Inc., but her piano-driven melodies remain as dreamy and delicate as ever. Her first single in two years is a shimmering burst of downtown-NYC bliss. (Album out Oct. 9) B+

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / The One not written by V?

yup no big deal


I think Avril has written most of her own music, as well? I'm not really a fan of either John or Avril, though.

Hmmm. I think Vanessa would have less credibility if she couldn't write songs, and only recorded those written by others, but she is a very gifted songwriter and has made many exceptional self-penned records.

Since Vanessa can write her own music, does that mean she should be close-minded to an entire population of other songs or songwriters? I personally don't think so. If Vanessa respects the artistry of a song not penned by herself, and she can relate to the song and feels intimately about it, why shouldn't she be able to perform it? I think Vanessa would be doing herself a disservice if she did not even consider the work of other gifted songwriters.

Also, I believe it shouldn't matter whether a song is a cover or not. Is it only okay for Vanessa to record music written by others only if someone else has recorded it before? I don't quite understand the logic in that. If Vanessa is producing a song, I believe she'll try her best to make an intimate, fresh, respectful recording no matter if the song is a cover, written by someone else, or a Carlton original.

Vanessa Carlton gets sheer leggy while filming the music video for “Nolita Fairytale,” the first single off her upcoming third album “Heroes & Thieves,” on Saturday afternoon in New York City.

On set, the 26-year-old songstress consulted with Irv Gotti, the CEO of her record label, The Inc.

Residents and pedestrians in the area of Lafayette Street and Bond Street were disturbed during the filming of the video as a New York City yellow cab performed a burnout, accelerated and then collided with a piano at high speed, sending debris and smoke flying down Lafayette Street.
