Polls / Will "White Houses" flop?

« on: September 08, 2004, 08:55:49 am »

I voted "maybe". Most definatly NOT because it's not an excellent song, because it is, but because people tend not to appreciate talent. Had she been rolling on the floor in a mini skirt and belly shirt w/ a dude--and showing her virginity lost in some way......Well, I think that it would be up there more. The world is nasty, lol

But, again, I voted "maybe", because, as I said, it's an excellent song. And just like "A Thousand Miles", it could get way up there. Her talent might prevail! I'm voting for her!

Polls / Do You Have A Favorite Sport?

« on: September 08, 2004, 08:51:53 am »

I hate sports w/ a burning fiery passion, BUT, I do love Figure Skating! I wish I could do that, lol, it's so lovely. And, I like gymnastics a lot. And, I find running to be fun. I suppose I just hate anything that involves some sort of ball or stick or basket-type-thing.  :roll:

Polls / White Houses Video

« on: September 08, 2004, 08:49:02 am »

I love it, and I ADORE the dancing. She's dancing with the music. It's like....I love it. When you can actually --feel-- the music--like something in your bones.

I'm a very artsy-fartsy type-gal, and when I heard/saw the song/video, I loved it. I thought it was beautiful, because not many people can express themselves that way.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / "White Houses" interpretation

« on: September 08, 2004, 08:32:58 am »

Ok--so I got the idea for this thread from the VC boards. It started off as someone saying that they didn't like the video, and eventually unraveled itself into a "How do you interpret the video and song" thread. I decided that this was pretty interesting, lol, and wanted to share it here.

So, how do you all interpret the song? This was my response:

"White Houses" reminds me of purity, and innocence. Like "White"--the color. Pure. And then "houses" I think of doll houses.

Since the song is about coming-of-age, I really thought it related. One losing their virginity--and "holding secrets...in white houses"....I just thought it was like, her secret self. Finding herself, possibly being ashamed, and cloaking it over w/ a facade of innocence.

I dunno. I think something along those lines. I'm not quite good at explaining myself, lol, but I'm sure you get the point. I don't think that there is any --one-- right answer, unless she herself says that there is, and even then--people interpret things entirely differently.

HELLO--music is the universal language, lol.

I'm nuts.

Introduce Yourself / I'm new here! Come and welcome me!

« on: September 08, 2004, 07:22:34 am »

I'm laughing at the "Come and Welcome Me!" part of your thread title, though...I don't think I've ever seen someone new demand salutation like that

Me too. It could be bad though...like maybe she's come to take over and she's wants us to obey and worship her 8O

Welcome Master *bows*

Thanks everyone for the welcoming^_^...but wait....

You mean, you didn't know you were going to worship...me?

I'm dividing and conquering this land

Introduce Yourself / I'm new here! Come and welcome me!

Hey everyone! I'm new here, and just thought that I should introduce myself. I'm Jaded Rogue--you can call me any form of the alias as you'd like, lol. I'm 15, a chic, and obviously, I love Vanessa Carlton. Her music, that is, seeing as I don't personally know her. If I knew her, I might love her too, lol. But, from the pieces of herself that she seems to put into her music (a lot of artists don't do that, they just write stuff, but she puts so much of herself into it), we can relate more to her. And say--ye, we do like her.

Lol, I sound like a nut, don't I? Well, good, because I am a nut^_^ Feel free to write me anytime--as I LOVE to talk, and WANT to talk to people, lol. Will have fun talking w/ you all later and/or getting updates on Vanessa, talking about her music, obsessing, lol.

I was just (tonight) "recruited" to this site, lol, because I came from the forums at the Vanessa Carlton site. Which I, might I add, just joined tonight as well. So far, the people seemed pretty cool. Will --you-- live up to my standards? :?:

Lol, just kidding^_^

Anyhow, I hope to talk with you all soon! So now, you've read it, get to welcoming!
