Corrinne May in concert II
Tickets arrived yesterday. That was fast! :)
The words are kinda stuck tonight, so I thought I'd just continue to plug in the meantime. Read, listen, and then book your tickets here! ;)
The other “new” tune of the evening (apparently so new that Corrinne had to scribble down the bass notes for Todd right before the show, causing him to warn the audience that he might screw them up) was an amusing ditty entitled “If I Kissed You”. It seemed similar to “Something About You”, asking if the world would suddenly turn upside-down and cute things like “babies gurgling” and so forth would happen if she showed her lover a little PDA. She got a good laugh when she ended off the song with the line “Would you run naked down the street with my name tattooed on your behind?”, and she gave us all a sly wink and commented, “Bet you weren’t expecting that, were you?”

*sob* im so dulan. I will be in Canada.
Awww. It's okay. She'll be back, and you'll be having fun in Canada anyway! :)
feel like going for it. but no money. :( i downloaded a couple of her mp3s and its fantastic.
there's always something about a mellow voice that gets to me.
be sure to give us a lowdown on how the concert went ok?
I really never listen much to her, although I've heard lots and lots of praises and rave reviews about her music. Twit likes her, you like her, Ball.Of.yarn likes her ( i think) and like the whole world loves her.
On the other hand, let me recommend this song to you: Damien Rice- The blower's Daughter. Damn nice!! I think it has a Corrine May vibe to it.
lyn: Student's concession is pretty good at $25. (Hidden charges apply, but still under $30, heh.) It's a long way off anyway, so you can KIV it. ;)
Mr Moron: Everyone likes "The Blower's Daughter" too. :) It's listenable, but my problem is that the songs I really love -- I have to understand. And of this moment, no one has been able to tell me who the blower's daughter is! :p
ahh.. my pockets are getting depressingly empty. think i'll just read about laughingcow's review.
gosh i'm sucha cheapskate. hee.
Corrinne May? Wah, I don't even know who she is... Too old too old... Generation gap here... Anybody for Air Supply or G&R? Keke. Enjoy, cow.
BTW, I really like the title of your blog... Who is this Foreman guy? Author or song writer or poet?
Support leh. Singaporean singer-songwriter, you know? All her songs are on her website so don't even have to buy CD. ;)
Jon Foreman is singer-songwriter of a band called Switchfoot. :) (He is also my future husband. He just doesn't know it yet.)
Heard Corrine May recently on the radio but even the Djs weren't giving too much introductions about her. Kept hearing the song but maybe it's no luck that I've not been able to catch the title of the song she's singing.
Right, it's Save Me. Thanks for the link! =)
You're welcome. :) I guessed just as much; that's the theme song for the local drama Chase. ;)
