Thinking about Tori

Well, here's a problem - a concert usually lasts an hour- and hour and a half. Two hours at best. So how many songs can you sing? if we're talking an average of 4 minutes for a song, so... Oh, math, annoying, wait... 60/4=15*2=30, if it's straight, and it won't be, so... 25 songs? Something like that?

So what songs will Tori sing next week? Sure, there will be a few of her new ones, probably "Big Wheel", "Bouncing off clouds", "Yo Goerge", but which else from ADP [American Doll Posse]? And what old songs will she play? "Crucify" and "Cornflake Girl" for sure, but... We'll say she'll sing 5-6 new songs, so she has some 15-20 old songs to sing...

Here's my guess: "Crucify", "Me and a Gun", maybe "Precious things" or "Silent all these years"... "Pretty good year", "God", "Past the mission". God, I hope she'd play "Space dog" or "Cloud on my Tongue", but I don't really believe she would. She'd play "Mister Zebra"' or "Talula", or the horrible version of "Professional widow", and "Spark" and hopefully "She's your Cocaine" or "Raspberry swirl" (or both... mmmm...), and "Playboy mommy". She'd play "Bliss" for sure, and maybe "Concertina"... "A sorta fairytale", "Taxi ride", "Sleeps with butterflies"...

Wow, that's a lot.

My own private choices, however, would have been quite different.

"Winter", "Precious things", "Me and a gun", "The Waitress" (just to see her play But I believe in peace, BITCH!), "Space dog", "Professional widow", the good version, "Caught a lite sneeze", "I i e e e", "She's your cocaine", "Raspberry swirl", "Bliss", "Concertina", "A sorta fairytale", "Carbon", "I can't see New-York", "Taxi ride", "Scarlet's wak" "Virginia", "sleeps with Butterflies", "Irland", "Marrys of the sea", "Martha's foolish ginger", "The Beekeeper", "Take me with you", "Flying Dutchman", "Beauty of speed", "Almost Rosey", "Digital Ghost", "Secret Spell", "Hey Jupiter", "Upside down".

Well, we'll see in a week...!

OMG, how friggin' awesome! It would have been a lot better if they'd organize it in the order of percentage, not according to the a-b-c. But it does say a lot - for example, Big wheel, yeah, definitely, and some from all kinds of weird places, so there is hope!

Thanks!

Dude, what's with the IM speak?

If you're refering to the "Y kant..." - it's because Tori has a first album, called "Y Kant Tori Read", it's a pun...
