If it goes live again and I see it I'll take some screen shots.  The intro page was the red background with just the Cameo and you had to click it to get to the main page.  If you look in the "I have the album" thread there is a picture of the back of the album case.  The main page looks like that, but with Vanessa and Victor drawn in the middle around a camp fire.  There was also a music player at the top of the page.  The songs I got to before I had to close out the page were Spring Street, Nolita and Hands on Me.  

As mentioned above you had to scroll over certain parts of the drawing to get to news, tour, boards (coming soon), store (also coming soon), a performances secion, music, and photos.  The music section was basically the three albums cover art and track listings.  You could click on some titles from Heroes and Thieves to listen.  The photos were basically the same as the promos we have, except for two I haven't seen of her posing in a white outfit with Victor.

I am very impressed with the new web site!  Although, the Bio section has some old information in it, like Heroes and Thieves having a Spring 2007 release.  Also the Heroes and Thieves page has a different track list from what's on the VH1 The Leak site.  

Looking forward to the store, performances, lots of tour dates and maybe new message boards (sans drama?  Ha.)

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Top 5 from 'Heroes & Thieves'

« on: October 04, 2007, 05:52:46 am »

Ok, I cheated.  Once I saw VH1 had put the album up I couldn't hold out any longer.  It's been playing on a loop in my office since 9am this morning.  While I think this is probably the best batch of songs she's done yet, there are some stand out for me.

1) More Than This (it's the Twilight of this album.  Love it)
2) Hands On Me (LOVE the arrangement, especially the strings)
3) Come Undone  (only Vanessa can stick a word like sycophantic into a song and make it work.  I also love the piano out-tro)
4) Fools Like Me (the lyrics get to me)
5) Nolita Fairytale (fun, upbeat, and I love the video)

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / It's leaked

« on: September 26, 2007, 09:16:12 am »

I saw this post and my stomach sank.  I thought it would be like Harmonium all over again.  This time I'm not listening to it until the CD officially comes out.  But I hope everyone else enjoys, and from what I've read from your reactions so far it's shaping up to be her best album yet.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Vote For Nolita Fairytale on VH1 Vspot top 20!

« on: September 22, 2007, 05:31:37 am »

You can tell what's a live show and what's not.  B said it himself that it airs at 2am Saturdays where he is, so obviously they're not live at 9am.  The intro's are taped like "here's Vanessa Carlton at #7 with Nolita Fairytale."  Obviously the producers stop counting votes at some point before Saturday, and my bet would be Friday morning sometime.  It makes even more sense when the host is in California and it looks like mid afternoon outside when, if it were live, it should be 6am.

This show is not live and they tape the segments on either Thursdays or Fridays so even if you voted 8 million times today it wouldn't matter.  Voting Sunday through Wednesday or Thursday is more important.

New season news!!!  TV Guide reported PR 4 will be back on November 14!  Also in the September issue of Elle Nina writes in her column that the new season has been in production for a few weeks and they are filming right now.  Heidi also announced on her website PR4 is back and is the best one yet (but of course, she probably has to say that).  Woop!!!

I doubt it.  I hate to be Debbie Downer but unless Elliot was #7 I don't think she's going to make it.  I could be wrong, but we'll find out in a few minutes.
