Anybody a fan here? What is your favorite song of hers?
Mine is a tie between Shadowboxer and Criminal...
"Never Is a Promise" and "Sleep to Dream"
ooooh...I love that Paper Bag song -she's frickin' incredible. That video on her website of her first composition when she's a little kid just amazes me.

I love "Extraordinary Machine" and "Not About Love."
I'm a big Fiona fan. My personal favorite song is "Carrion".

I love Never is a Promise. It is such an emotionally charged song. I made the mistake of getting this cd the night I found out my boyfriend had been cheating on me. That song struck home and I was crying like a baby.
Yeah, Carrion is a fantastic song.
There really isn't a bad song on "Tidal".
"When the Pawn" was actually a really good follow up as well. "Paper Bag" is great and the video by Paul Thomas Anderson is top notch. I am also a fan of "Fast as you Can".
I cannot wait until October 4th when "Extraordinary Machine" is released.

I have been reluctant to say this, but I know that it is true, so I will:
This upcoming album (even the early recordings that floated around the inet) is the most encouraging thing I've seen from a top 40 musician in decades. It is actually furthering the form, and I dig it dig it dig it!!!!!!!
I've heard most of the leaked version and I think it is some of her best work to date.
Oh yeah, I heard the leaked Extraordinary Machine as well, and it really sounded great.

NO WAY!!!
Do you remember:
"If you critics - f******* critics write at thing about me - I'll KILL YOU!!
Holy god!
She kept complaining about the sound by her monitor..I was by the soundboard - the sound guy kept looking like she was nuts..his signals were fine!
Are you following me!!
Nor do I.
Wow, I gotta see if I can get my hands on the leaked version of this. Sounds phenominal.

Awww...she is one of those who is too talented for her own good...she always expects perfection, and some venues just cant give ya that.
Well, I still love her crazy ass.

It was the most unprofessional thing I had ever seen and I adored her!!! and the sound tape shows her ON PITCH and IN TUNE -
"I can not F******* hear myself - FIX THIS!!! FIX THIS!! (starts crying)Youf**********fu****** don't you writethis..."
walks off -
never comes back!
I know the term meltdown is used on this board a lot but THAT was a meltdown!

Wait till you hear the title track of Extraordinary Machine, if you haven't heard it already. It's like Rosemary Clooney on acid (and I mean that as a compliment). I love that song.
Wow, were the tickets refunded?

THERE'S NO CRYING IN ROCK CONCERTS!!
suck it up - Sinatra would have kicked her in the head - you MAKE IT WORK!
