I just think it's awful she's underrated so badly considering the quality & awesomeness of her music.

Still, I guess it's a good thing otherwise she could end up doing what Regina Spektor seems to be doing ><

I'm always going to support Vannessa...I've loved her music/words/mind for nearly 8 years!! I honestly couldn't give a shit if her songs are played on the radio and tv or not....most artists I support are not... But it's nearly impossible to give a shit or have any kind of motivation to promote(as someone mentioned below) when the artist herself doesn't show any kind of interest into her dying fanclub.  I don't expect her to pop-up every day, or every week...not even every month...but damn, maybe a couple times a year? I think online-presences'(myspace,fanclubs,twitter,etc) can do wonders for artists of V's caliber.  Just wish she'd take advantage of them more and more often.  All constructive criticism....

You have to have skillz to fight booty videos.  ;)  A little duct tape helps too.  Just ask Macguyver, he knows.


 ;D

That's it, just one big creepy smile?

It's partly a reference to the music video "Pretty Baby," you know.

OH! That's the only version I've ever seen! I thought it was maybe something more I don't know, weird.
I love that video!

When it originally aired on MTV they had to cut out the end because they thought it was too "controversial." Silly, I know.
I love that video too!

Hahha.

Didn't the censor white houses as well? the blood lyric? STUPID! I couldn't tell you the last time I even watched T.V..but I do remember seeing tons of booty shaking and camel toe shaking n shit....but the word 'blood' in a beatufiuly written MASTERPIECE...ugh makes me mad....White Houses is probably Vanessa's best song.  Just my opinion...and it's weird..cause I usually tend to not like singles...but that song is sooo moving too me.


ps: its so weird watching ANY video from the bnn era....i don't know why..i feel like it's not even her haha

I think it's because the BNN era was her starting out. Might be because she hadn't grown as an artist yet at the time. Of course, eventually, her artistic growth produced this wonderful artist we all know and love!

WOW! Yeah, hypocritical! I hate MTV, beautiful music is stifled and crap is held high.
I love BNN era videos, I think it's because it's the time period that drew me to her!

I think that is the next question someone should ask her, "Do you presently have a roll of duct tape at your house?"
