ya i wish she came here!! toronto is WAY to far. vancouver isnt too bad, but its still too far for a concert

I agree completely. Maybe one day she will come to Edmonton again like she did in '03.

I'm not from Edmonton exactly, but I'm like, fifteen minutes away. I was in Edmonton on Thursday buying Vanessa's new CD, because I would simply just NOT wait for Christmas. XD Now I've bought my top four X-mas presents.

I'm from Alberta, but Vanessa isn't coming from around there as far as I know. The best thing would be if she came to Edmonton, because I can't exactly go all the way to Toronto just to listen to a concert. Not with three siblings.
What took me so long to sign up? Well I'm not exactly sure, I never saw the point of it until recently when I started making tutorials on youtube, and I thought I would get to know the people on nessaholics better. ^^

I've lurked for maybe around a month and a half now. Haha.

Hey you guys, this is DeeperThanSurface from YouTube, (As you might be able to tell from my nessaholics screen name) and I am just amazed that you guys (Especially cyanyde/sinerix) would love my tutorials this much that you would be THAT excited that I would ask you if you wanted me to make a "Home" tutorial. Wow...I'm easily flattered, obviously.
Anyway, I would very much like to get on that right away, along with the rest of the Heroes and Thieves tutorial, but I just need to re-install my webcam to my laptop, then find a camera person as I'm not sure my sister wants to do it anymore. (She's constantly telling me she's busy with something else. She could be hinting at something there...)

So yes, I shall get at that right away, even though thewreckage88 has already covered "Home" on YouTube.

If you're interested, I'm also working on learning "More Than This" by ear because it seems to be a very popular favorite. I've already got the key and the intro for the right hand, so once I figure that out, I should be able to make a tutorial of that, as well as prepare some sheet music to send it to www.freewebs.com/nessafan12.

Last but not least,
THANK YOU!

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / More Than This (Lyrics)

« on: October 20, 2007, 05:30:46 pm »

I'm pretty sure it's not a harmonium. Harmoniums have more of a resonating sound, almost as if more than one note is being played at once. They are neat. They usually have a bit of a deeper sound than what you hear on More Than This too, from what I've heard of them.

I'm not an expert on any instruments, but from what I've seen of the harmonium, more than one note does play at the same time.
For an example that may not be correct: Say you play middle C. The C an octave higher would be played automatically as well. If you want, I can study into that a bit more...

i need this sheet music as quickly as possible. it is life or death.


i wish i could just walk up to vanessa and congratulate her for this song. it's a masterpiece.

I'm working on learning it by ear. I've already found out the key and the intro for the right hand. It's pretty tough, seeing as how I've never learned a song by ear before except for "Home", but that's pretty straightforward.

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Re: The Wreckage

« on: October 20, 2007, 05:25:49 pm »

what are the lyrics? and is it just me or does it sound kinda morbid?

Just in case it's too inconvenient for you to look the lyrics up on nessaholics.com's lyrics page, I took the liberty of copying down for you.  :wink:

Speeding into the horizon
Dreaming of the sirens
Wishing for broken glass on a highway
It could be so easy

The rhythm, the rhythm of an engine
Always makes me empty
I see the headlights comming at me
I can't help but wonder

Flying, flying in slow motion
The wind through my hair
And ripping through the scenery
Oh, the wreckage
It is my secret need

Oh, speeding into the horizon
Dreaming of the sirens
Wishing for broken glass on a highway
It could be so easy

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Re: Misheard Lyrics?

« on: October 20, 2007, 05:18:30 pm »

Yes, I'm sure we've all foolishly mistaken a lyric in one of Vanessa's songs before actually looking it up and feeling really stupid afterwards. Here are some of mine:

White Houses:

Little bungalow with some strange new friends

Pretty Baby:

Can you hold me and never let go / When you touch me is it me that you want

She Floats:

God knows secrets though I'm told

I'm sure there are a lot more; I suck at listening to lyrics. What about the rest of you guys?

I'm confused about the statement, but assuming you mean these are the misheard versions of yours, I reply
For White Houses, you are correct on that lyric.
For Pretty Baby, I believe it is "Why can't you hold me and never let go / When you touch me is it me that you own"... Not sure on that one.
For She Floats, I always thought it was "God knows secrets though I'm told" as well, but I checked the lyrics (I own the CD) and it says "Got no secrets though I'm told"[/b]

Thank you. ^^

So yeah, if anyone wanted to ask any particular questions about me, I'd be happy to answer them (If they're not TOO personal), so you all know about me.

Here's an important fact though: I'm Canadian.

I wish Vanessa would do a concert in my area.

Haha, I used to look at everything on this website, so I decided maybe I'd better sign up. I'm not so good at describing me in a nutshell, so maybe people would like to ask questions?
