Hourigan my thoughts on fiona,
hmm.....i believe that to think of someone is to think of the influences
that they have upon you, and what it is (in them) that inspires you.
myself being a musician allows me an interesting perception of fiona's
music, not just that well warranted appreciation of its sound, but an
appreciation of its formation. her music is both simple and hard; simple
chords progressions coupled with a swung beat, and yet there is a
certain complexity to the feeling she emits not only through her words
but also through her musicians (herself included). my preference for
jazz/blues led me to her, as a contemporary jazz/pop/blues artist she
encompasses most of the musical assets that i hold dear. to meet her
would be an interesting experience, to have a jam session with her crew
would be extremely moving. but hey, i'm in a reality check over here,
half-way around the world. on a very large island. the best way to think
of fiona is not only as a individual, but also as an experience that
will not leave easily. great minds think alike, i expel my demons
through my music. she does the same. it's a natural thing to do, writing
music was thought of by Plato as an inspired madness. i think he was
right...at least about the inspiration bit anyways.

Victoria Sydney vickyc@thevortex.com 15 when i recently read that fiona wasn't coming o Australia i cried, because the artist that has helped me so much, i would never see her and tell her tow words; thank you. i was sick, mentally sick, i was depressed, and her music brought me back from wherever i was, and she helped me find my passion for music which saved me. i look down at my scarred wrists, and all i see is scars, the fact that something was wrong, but that something, someone helped me back and stopped me from doing the inevitable. That was fi. i was so thankful to her and now i will never get to see her, i am so sad, but i am so happy for all of you, and tell her i said thank you

Mon Melbourne, Australia I wouldn't be here if I didn't think she was a legend. She really is my favourite artist and her albums are ones that I listen to over and over again - you never tire of them. Every time you listen to her music you get something else from them - that's when you know it's a great album and artist. What I would like to know is when is Fiona Apple touring Australia? So if anyone knows please let me know. Thanks.

amber Sydney, Australia amberbaby_99@hotmail.com 17 i dont know fiona personally, but i can relate to absolutely EVERYTHING she feels, her frustration at constantly being misconstrued, whether it be her music or her persona... she is very inspirational and the fact that she has been prone to embarrassment in the past tells us that she is true and vulnerable at times just like the rest of us... we should appreciate her instead of mocking her genuineness. i love fiona for embracing her emotions through her beautiful music and sharing herself with people so openly. ive written a poem kinda inspired by her.... its called 'my silence'

henning Sydney ahenning@bigpond.net.au 16 fiona is the god that lines my bedroom, fiona is the breeze that shuts the door, fiona makes me think of things to say to people that get in my way, she makes me stay a little sane , but not enough to be bore. fiona has the life i am reliving, fiona tells that sadness is ok, shes not some sullen girl, complaining about the world, she only says what others think but never dare to speak. Fiona gives to those that are deserving , her voice melts through my room and it feels like shes singing to me. Shes been through all this pain, but shes not trying to complain , just saying what knows will help others in their throws. fiona, smiling eyes, dont let them tell you your too thin, take your advice and go within yourself, always see the truth. fiona , grinning heart, we'll always love you, distant star, and no matter where you are, i see you shining down on me. love from Susie**** (ahenning@bigpond.net.au)

Emily Australia smurfling_daisy@hotmail.com 16 I find feelings hard to put down... And my feelings on Fiona Apple are hard to put down... I often wondered how such a small person was possible of creating such amazing things... I guess she taught me that it doesn't matter how small u are (physically or mentally) that eventually true colours shine forth... This may not be making sense but it makes sense in my head (another thing Fiona taught me) I fall asleep listening to her, wake up listening to her and i feel so reassured that i can go on... She is amazing and she should be so proud of herself cause i know many people that are thankful for her... I don't know her and knowing her would be even more amazing, but listening to her music u feel that u know a part of her that only music could show. Fiona, you show a world to people, a world that says its okay, a world where feelings can be expressed honestly... And i'm glad i'm in that world.
