I love those French bonus tracks on Kirsty's "Kite"!
And I just found out that it's the voice of Rickie Lee Jones on the Orb's "Little Fluffy Clouds". That changes it a bit for me!

Finally got around to making a Tori Amos Mp3 disc. In this case it's nice that I couldn't fit everything on one disc, meant I got to trim out the subpar stuff, which meant taking out almost a quarter of the stuff after Choirgirl.

Here's the recent 11 (had 10, but it moved on to the 11th since writing)

Sweet the Sting
1000 Oceans
Cars and Guitars
Sugar (Live)
Bells For Her
Not David Bowie
She’s Your Cocaine
Pretty Good Year
Precious Things
That’s What I Like, Mike (The Sandwich Song)
Body and Soul

it's almost a three word thread of it's own

Driving?! Maybe you should consider writing a book about the post-election mood in the US—you should have a front row seat!

I would but there's not going to be much sight-seeing going on. I'll pretty much just be driving and sleeping (hopefully not at the same time). I just need to get a car to someone and then I'm flying back. Sounds like fun, doesn't it?

Although, by this time tomorrow, I should be in Obama's home state (the southern part, or else I'd stop by Blushift's).

This is an edit to say that driving cross-country to visit all the U.S. forum members would be an awesome idea. Maybe someday.
