I really wish someone had a full recording of the Spring Haze. It sounds like it would be an amazing one!

[tinkerbel1911]

this was so great to hear and see live she is truly fantastic

[nicholasxx]

I was at this show. It was actually quite a powerfull moment. I don't think she was trying to be funny or cool, she was just saying what she thought......like everyone here.......which is a good thing i think.

Sounded Beautiful :o)

We should just leave the politics out of the music.  I just can't wait until Bush is out of office, then the terrorists will just go away.

greatest force of good? im afraid that i cant totally agree with really, its a mixed bag like most countries. tori only wudnt get away with brit bashing cos shes not a brit, if she were a brit and slagged off britain i cant say id be that bothered cos no doubt she would be right. blind patriotism isnt something im particularly cool with, its a dangerous thing

[duimstra]

Well thank you for answering my original question which was, If tori were british and came to the US and made these comments about british politicos would you guys think it was cool and funny? You just said she would not get away with it!! The US has become the worlds punching bag. The US has been the greatest force for good in the history of the world. I would like Tori to stick up for her country instead of joining in on the US bashing that has become so acceptable.

[barryframic]

being half american and half british im ubiased really. but i do agree that america needs to sort itself out and get rid of bush. as for the war, it dosnt matter who 'won' we arent all in here speaking german and living in fear so be happy about that n drop it

[barryframic]

we all know that tori has strong political views. yes? and shes not gonna shut up for anyone, and she shouldnt have to. she was born in the states and has right to criticise it if she wants.Both the UK and the US have plenty of screwed up political agendas and awful politicians, Tori is just more concerned with the state of america, as she would be, its her homeland. shes not gonna slate the UK cos being an american she wouldnt get away with it so she isnt gonna talk about both equally.

[duimstra]

ok barryframic, maybe I should drop it but Tori started it. In your opinion what exactly do you think she meant to do here?

[barryframic]

jesus christ tori cant half start her own political wars among fans...chill out people and appreciate what she meant to do here
