the pictures you see right there, the four different ones, are the covers you can buy for the album. there's four. yeah. you can count. i know you can. right. so i convinced morgan to buy this on tuesday. but she was at rehearsal and so dad went out and purchased it with her money. and he didn't know there were multiple covers and i forgot to tell him so he got the one where she has short black hair.
dad's logic: he didn't think morgan would want one where she had long blond hair, and he didnt want her to have the smoking one. he's dad. gee. what can we say. and then he figured short dark hair was safe since morgan likes and has short dark hair. as do i.
and anyway i was gonna talk about all this in tuesday's post but you'll notice that tuesday's post is nonexistant because i am a lazy bum.
anyway.
i have been talking to nick all afternoon and that puts me in a very good mood and this cd was lovely. my mom HATES the cover of 'heart of gold' the neil young song. because tori changes it a lot. which is the whole point. the whole album is covers. it's really interesting though. and then in like the photographs in the album she's portraying the women in the songs... and all the songs were originally by men. so she's covering stuff like the beatles and eminem. she doesn't rap though thank god. it's spoken word. oh and it's really really eerie how she does it. its the song '97 bonnie & clyde and i have heard the original but i love tori's version because it's so terrifying. shudderworthy and chillful as i've been coming to call it these past couple days. so uhm. you guys should definitely check it out. tori is great. even though we only have four of her albums. i still want brittany's mom to drag us to nashville hashville or get my mom to take us to another show... she's supposed to be great live of course and i saw her on regis today and she said she's just gonna be touring with her piano and 'a couple vintage keyboards' and that's how people usually like to see her. its how she started and everything. like ani difranco on the stage with just her guitar. but now she's got a band and everything and i love her expansion in music but anyway. i'm gonna go now.
