Aah, this is so great I don't want to listen to the new songs cause I want them to be fresh and new when I get the album, but that youtube link is looking oh so tempting..

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Re: Meanings and Notions behind the Songs

« on: June 05, 2010, 01:32:02 am »

From what she told on the Milford concert, "London" is about "why the moon doesn't speak back when you talk to it". In my understanding, it is essencially about faith and the feeling that, sometimes, God or any powerful force in which you believe seems to not be listening or watching for us. Also, by the lyrics, it's about not being satisfied with your life and to be always wondering and wanting to discover things, to make the best of your time because it cannot be taken back.

Well, this thing of "meanings of Nessa's songs" is pretty subjective to me, they're all so deep that everyone will probably have their own significance upon the songs.

Damn... You beat me to it. I was going to say it was about her personally - putting aside Judaism and declaring herself "spiritual." Nonetheless, it's all the same.

As for Come Undone, I feel that it's a song about Steven; then again, I think that a lot about her love songs.

Rinse - I'm pretty sure she explained it in her Nashville concert, just don't remember what it was... nor can I really understand what she's saying - too much background noise. But here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrI-s4nf4yU

I got a better recording and I think she says, "I'd like to dedicate this to all the women in the audience. Women have tendancies to become stalkers. Now they're all like, 'oh s***, she knows!'. There is a moment in every girl's life where she stalks, she stalks a man for some reason."

hmm.. rinse is about stalking? who knew? lol

"If you weren’t a singer-songwriter, what would you be? A druid, perhaps. I’d own a farm as well."
"At times I feel like a Victorian undertaker."

Ah, V this is why we love her.

Anyway, there is excitment oozing friom her corner of my being! I'm expecting something totally different, totally surprising, totally magical in this record.. yet another harmonium and h&t that i'll listen to so much it becomes a part of me.

One thing's for sure, the title is very V. I actually love it, I can't wait to hear an explanation on the meaning behind it.

"the yard is surrounded by an invisible fence" hmm.. invisible? that sounds interesting.. 
but yeah, i hope she's ok. I'm pretty sure it must be real (who would really care enough to make up a rumour about it anyway?) I'm actually surprised she's in America.. I was expecting Timbuktu next.

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Re: Spring Street - What do you think?

« on: May 07, 2010, 11:09:57 pm »

At first I really didn't like it and I never played it.. then something clicked while listening to it. "The past keeps on fading, but I'll never forget you." It's so sad!! Lyrically I think it's one of her best for sure.

I made a transcription for Spring Street. I'm not sure how accurate it is, but I think it's pretty much it.  

Here's the link for the sheet music: http://www.mediafire.com/file/zdvzim2mhhq/Spring Street.pdf

Awesome!! i've been wanting that one for ages! thank you!

it's definitely one of her best!!  ahahaha!! (sorry, excuse the lame pun, i just had to)
anyway, i think it's one of the saddest notions on H&t and the words are just pure poetry.. definitely one of my favourites, especially live.
