General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / here it is

« on: May 27, 2003, 10:09:25 pm »

This is the response that YM printed:

Ali Gazan raves about 50 Cent, some stupid rapper who can't even speak English correctly and probably doesn't know how to play an instrument or read music. And then she bad-mouths Vanessa Carlton, a real musician who writes her own music. What is wrong with you people! Can no one in my generation appreciate good music, or resist what the media tells you to like? I don't even think rap should be considered music. Am I alone here?

Other Musicians / I like Bush

I'm not a big Bush fan - I don't even have their albums but I've listened to my dad's Bush albums.
I have seen them on the Razorblade Suitcase tour and that was a fun experience.

Bonjour, Thomas.

Comment ca va? Je suis nouvelle ici. Je viens d'acheter Be Not Nobody il y a quelques jours et je pense que c'est formidable. Pardon mes fautes - anglais est ma langue maternelle, mais c'est plus amusante pour moi de parler en francais. Je voulais dire bonjour!

Introduce Yourself / Hey guys! I'm new here

Haha. Not that weird. I know Ilovehanson. She has the same name on the Hanson message boards, and I've met her before because I often shop at the mall where she works. We live in the same county. I should have known she'd be here - she's told me that she's a big fan of Vanessa's.
I have to love anyone with a Hanson tattoo. lol

Hey Mike. I'm new too. I'm 20 years old and live about 45 minutes from Philly but attend college farther away.
How do you do?

Other Musicians / Michelle Branch

Good news is you can still buy Michelle's indie album Broken Bracelet. I don't regret buying it - it's got really good songs. The only place you can buy it is with a credit card through Michelle's website. It's 18 dollars INCLUDING shipping so I think it's a pretty good deal. It was really cool to hear the original versions of If Only She Knew, Sweet Misery, I'd Rather Be In Love, and Goodbye to You. Some of the other songs are so good I have to wonder why they didn't make the Spirit Room.

Thanks for being so nice  

Stewart's Coat is on Michelle's indie album. The chorus is "Just give me many chances. I'll see you through it all. Just give me time to learn to crawl." It's a beautiful acoustic song - of course most of her indie album is way more acoustic than the Spirit Room.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Does Vanessa have any indie or prefame music?

« on: March 14, 2003, 06:31:09 pm »

I was wondering if this stuff exists and how I could find it. Thanks.

I love Michelle Branch! I have both the Spirit Room and her indie album Broken Bracelet. I think it's stupid when people act like you can't be a fan of both Vanessa and Michelle. Dude, it's not a competition.

I just bought Vanessa's album a few days ago and I think it is really amazing. The whole album - I am very impressed. I just wanted to say hi and learn more about her from some of her hardcore fans.
I'm female, 20 years old, and in college. Hey everybody!
