lol I love how people are like, "Home is my favorite song on the record but I don't think it'll make a good single!"

That doesn't make any sense. It's people favorite song because um, it's a good fucking song, and everytime I pop that CD in my car everyone's always telling me to skip to "Home". I think the fact that it's an awesome fucking song that nearly everyone takes too completely negates the fact that people doubt if it'll work as a single.
It's different from all the shit we're hearing on the radio now, it's fresh, people will take to it - more so than they will take to Hands On Me I think. Home just needs the right tie ins - getting featured in a movie, etc.


I completely understand why people would say that, though. It IS a great song, but it's not radio friendly. You need to listen to it a few times to fully understand it and fall in love with it. There's no catchy chorus for a first time listener to get hooked on.

It's my favourite track on the album, but for the sake of Vanessa's prolonged career, i'd have to say it would make a poor single.

Here's a video of me covering "Hands on Me" at a coffee house at my high school last week...I don't know if this is posted in the wrong section. The quality is really bad, but bear with me. The video is also out of sync with the audio...Oh well. haha.

Introduce Yourself / HELLO!
« on: November 29, 2007, 06:49:32 pm »
So i've been posting a bit recently...I thought i'd introduce myself. My name is Calum, i'm 17 and I live in Toronto. I'm in my last year of high school...I love singing, songwriting and playing the guitar. I've been a Vanessa fan since 2002...I saw her on her tour here in 2005 and again last week on the Haunted Club tour. I'd have to say my favourite Nessa songs are "Who's To Say" "She Floats" "Home" and "Hands on Me".

Thanks for having me!

where were you seated- or standing rather i was front and center by all the annoying ass holes.. I just have seen her a lot. She is normally more giggly. I did not like the audience. did you meet her after?


Noo I didn't meet her after. I had no idea that was even a possibility. I was standing in the middle of the crowd. If you counted in "rows" probably the 10th row of people. It's too bad that it didn't compare to other shows, but I definitely had an amazing time. Her show at the Phoenix in 05 was slightly better though, but either way...I was really impressed last night.

Who were the ass holes at the front? I totally missed that.

I'm so surprised by your review...I had a GREAT time at the show last night. I thought the audience was great, and Vanessa seemed to enjoy herself. Then again, i've only seen her in concert twice, so I could be completely wrong. Here's are some videos I took at the show collaged into one:
