Creative Endeavors / A tentative Spotify request from a huge Nessaholic...

« on: April 15, 2019, 02:42:11 am »

Hi all,

I'm James (also known as harmonium123 on this forum). As a huge fan of all stuff VC– I'm getting a ROTR tattoo in two weeks' time– she's informed a lot of my own work and creative practice; and I've found that her influence has been wide-reaching on my own songs.

I released my debut single on Friday and I would LOVE for you all to hear it and let me know what you think. Spotify link below (but it's also available on apple music/ itunes/ all other platforms)

Thanks in advance

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Be Not Nobody- A gift or a curse?

« on: April 09, 2012, 01:33:31 pm »

I've just been listening to my daily dose of Vanessa and cracked out some of the super old stuff (demo tape tracks) and I remembered just how much better I find the Demo tape to BNN. Don't get me wrong, I love all V but I definitely think some of the tracks of the Demo are among her best.  This got me thinking about why I love the early stuff, I think it's because of how raw and personal it is and when you listen to BNN in comparison you can see how much she'd been stifled by her label. But then again, the huge success that was brought to V by BNN has allowed her to continue on her own way and look what she's produced: ROTR. (Again some of her best stuff)

What do you guys think, was the A thousand miles era a blessing or not?

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Bride Sheet Music

« on: June 05, 2011, 09:32:50 am »

I'm really at a loss as to how to start arranging a piano part to bride, any suggestions? I hope the official book doesn't just do bass and sung melody. :\

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / UK Tour?

« on: June 02, 2011, 12:16:04 pm »

Does anyone know if Vanessa is planning on promoting in the UK? She hasn't come here in so long and I was too young when she last came so i still haven't had the chance of seeing her play I just thought that seeing as she named one of her songs after the capital, maybe she would come to do some gigs! I hope so

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Hands On Me video

« on: May 21, 2011, 12:01:40 pm »

After loving vanessa for so long, i was shocked to discover that i'd never seen her video for hands on me. It's a song I've loved ever since i first heard it on H&T so i thought i had to see the video. I was surprised to see that it showed her undressing, not in like an "OMG NUDITY!?" way because a) it wasn't even nudity and b) So what if it was? it's just a bit of flesh and the song lends itself to that sort of imagery. But i was surprised that she would be bold enough to put that sort of thing in after all the public outrage that followed white houses. Just wondering if the press had a go at her for it? Thanks guys
