"No Holiday BLOG?"

Or, 'The People Have Spoken, Round 2'
The title of this entry and indeed the very inspiration for it comes courtesy of a fan email from Christopher M. of Sacramento. He is not the only one of late to encourage more activity from me in the Blogging Department.
Regular readers will know I am not normally at a loss for words. However, with the holidays upon us, my shopping not yet complete and this being the time of year for the compiling of 'Best-Of' lists and whatnot, I have decided that this would be a good time to create a second instalment of my September 5/04 entry entitled: 'The People Have Spoken', in which I featured your comments.
There are 4 sets of quotes in this entry:
1) KRs TOP TEN FAVE RECENT FAN COMMENTS
2) ‘AFTERGLOW LIVE’
3) WHO’S A GOOD LITTLE BLOGGER?
4) MOVIN' UNITS
Just before I give you the floor, I'd like to share my New Year's Resolution to have the Gallery at my website thoroughly updated. I have a lot of tour photos from each leg of the tour that did not get posted in a timely fashion. I am promising you that these photos will appear in early 2005. I will post a notice here to let you know. More news for 2005: my entire website will be redesigned to reflect my new CD, "Kathryn Rose" (release date TBA). I also intend to keep up with my Blog next year. I have so enjoyed writing it and your feedback has been overwhelming.
Peace and love, and happy holidays, everyone. Talk to you again soon.

‘AFTERGLOW LIVE’:

“This [version] of “Fear” is just incredible! It's the combination of your harmony with Sarah's voice that does it.”
-Anya (New York).
“You all did a great job in the show [on the DVD]. I very much wished they would have put in more close-up footage of the band while you all were playing and singing.”
-Jennifer D. (Houston, Texas)
“Something I realized while watching the DVD: the best song in the live concert to hear live was ‘Answer’, and what puts it over the top is your background vocal when you come in on the line, ‘when the stars have all gone out.’ That and the other vocals from the mini-choir you have there really make this one shine.”
-Steve M. (River Falls, WI)
“You're a welcome addition to the Sarah crew.”
-Michael M. (Perth, Australia)
“In [one of your] entries you mentioned how you will try to respond to as many letters as possible, [there being] so many Sarah fans and only one of you. I can only speak for myself, but from what the other fan comments sound like, I think a lot of them would agree that these are your fans!”
-Lindsey C. (Edwardsville, Illinois)
“I know why she has selected you to be her BU, since you are very talented. I think you shined on ‘Answer’ and ‘Sweet Surrender’.
-Scott (Philadelphia?)
“Your singing was a great backing to Sarah - I must try and find some of your own work to hear...”
-David (Scotland)
“I just wanted to say that I enjoy and appreciate your talent. Saw Sarah twice on this tour and your voice and hers blend very well.”
-David A. C. (Dover, Delaware)
“My friend and I really appreciated how much the additional vocals especially from your sultry undertones really complemented the mood and the depth of feeling in Sarah's lyrics. It would be marvellous if you stayed with Sarah and came back to UK shores in the near future, but it would also be very special if you toured here individually too.”
-Marianne F. (Edinburgh, Scotland)
“You have been doing a phenomenal job as backup vocalist on Sarah's tour. It takes someone with great pipes to sing on the same stage as Ms. McLachlan, so kudos to you Kathryn.”
-Charmaine B. (Canada)
“Everyone [in Murmurs] is so amazed by you. You are the perfect addition to that little family.”
-Toni A. (Seattle)
“Sarah is a smart girl to have you on tour with her. And I agree with Regis. One day that WILL be you up there.”
-Meghan (New Jersey)
“Kathryn Rose, Sarah's new backup singer, performed vocals that completely blended with Sarah's, never overpowering her but still prevalent.”
-Tim C. (Baltimore, in a online concert review)
“I like your glitter-kiss move on your intro. Very cute. It's [your] chance to distinguish yourself in your role, and you've found a good way to do so.”
-Steve M. (River Falls, Wisconsin)
“You've got a stellar voice and the most wicked facial expressions ever!”
-Clayton (Chicago?)
“I think you're a great compliment to Sarah on stage.”
Gina (Detroit, Michigan)
“You should have had a solo or two.”
-Syndee (Houston?)
“Hey! You are amazing! You are a great addition to the group!”
-Peyton (Cincinnati?)
“You rock and your voice is beautiful. You and Sarah compliment each other well. I know Sarah's concert and tour would not have been what it has been if it wasn't for your awesome talent.”
-Abbey (Draper, Utah)
“I think your voice is beautiful. You and Sarah blend beautifully together.”
-Jennifer D. (Houston)
“I continue to be astonished at your skills vocally. Your harmonies are perfect and sound so awesome with Sarah. ‘Fear’ is my favorite song live because you both just rock out!”
-Shelley A. (Sacramento)
“It was the best concert I've seen Sarah do (and I've seen a few), due in large part to the new members such as yourself onstage.”
-Jason M. (Portland, Oregon)
“Hi Kathryn, just wanted to say you have an amazing voice!”
-Em (Melbourne, Australia)

-Kimberly van de W. (Sacramento, soon-to-be Vancouver)
“I would like to thank you for sharing your thoughts and impressions in your tour diary! I have read all of your archives. When I see the concert - in Munich, I won't be seeing the unknown background singer; there will be a name, a face [and] a voice, singing and blogging.”
-Steph (Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Austria)
“I absolutely love your tour diary. I love the little tid-bits and stories that you tell. So thanks for doing one, I can only imagine how busy you must be. It's great to hear stories about life on the road and your sense of humor is classic.”

“Do u ever wake up and say to yourself, ‘I sing back-up for Sarah McLachlan and I have my own CDs. I am awesome!?” If not, then you should. Cause it's true!
-Amy W. (Milwaukee)
“I found a website called New Music Canada where I got to listen to pretty much your entire catalogue. I must say I was very impressed. I will definitely be ordering some of your music. I love it, it's unique. The music and lyrics are great and you have a fantastic voice.”
-Amanda D. (Columbia, MO)
“I found out about your music from a Sarah fansite but it was the sound of your music that sold me on your CDs. I just received Every Lurid Detail. It's great, I love it! Right now my favorite song is ‘Failed Seduction’. At first listen this CD sounds a little darker than ‘My Little Flame’. The music that I listen to while drawing, painting, ceramics has been yours recently. So thank you for the inspiration. Waiting impatiently for the next CD.”
-Lindsey C. (Edwardsville, Illinois)
“[On ‘My Little Flame’]: ‘Life's Luxurious’ is probably the song I like listening to most at the moment, but I think ‘The Gift of This Moment’ is the best song. If you play it over and over again you begin to lose track of where the words stop and the music begins. The pause and rebuild of ‘Shrinking Violet’ makes me feel like you're very close to the music. It’s as though you're allowing the song to play and then you cover our ears for a moment and later on open your fingers slightly before taking them away again... I like listening to it because it changes just about every time I hear it.”
-Michael M. (Perth, Australia)
“I made up my mind on ‘My Little Flame’: my favorite song is definitely ‘Life's Luxurious’. and ‘I Married Myself’ is quite amusing as well.”
-Steve M. (River Falls, Wisconsin)
“I recently heard some of your own music, and it’s very good. I have been listening to ‘When You Come Along’ [on ‘Every Lurid Detail] a lot lately... it's addictive. I really like the way your voice sounds.”
-David A. C. (Dover, Delaware)
“I bought your album on the way out of the Manchester gig. I really like what I have heard so far. You have an amazing voice, sounds even better live!!”
-Ian B. (Liverpool, England)
“Can't wait for the new KR CD.”
-Isa (Terrebone, Quebec)
“I love the musical interlude in ‘Shrinking Violet’ [from the KR CD: ‘My Little Flame’]. It reminds me of a time-elapse movie of a flower opening.”
-Jennifer D. (Houston, Texas)
“I picked up your music after the concert and since Thursday it has not been back in my hands; my friends all wanted to borrow/hear it. You have a wonderful magnetic voice filled with power and volume: it is very comforting! My friends in Toronto have heard of you beside your tour with Sarah. I really enjoyed your songs ‘I Don't Need More’, ‘When You Come Along’ [from ‘Every Lurid Detail] and ‘Something I Can Use’ [from ‘My Little Flame’]”.
-Steph (Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Austria)
“Curious about the new material you will release”.
-Kris (Amsterdam).
“I really just LOVE your music. I listened to songs on your webpage. Yesterday I sent my boyfriend to go and buy ‘My Little Flame’. I really love the fact that your music is deeper."
-Marieke (Netherlands)
“I am going to buy your CD. I listened to some of your samples from the web site and it is great.”
-Meghan (New Jersey)
“I badly wish I had your new CD and you could sign it!!!!! How am I going to get your new CD signed by you??? I have been listening a bit more to ‘My Little Flame’ and can add a new favourite: ‘The Original Groundhog Day’, but still love ‘Wichita Lineman’. I hope that many other people will find their way to Kathryn Rose's music.”
-Susanne B. (London, England)
“I sampled your music and liked what I heard.”
-Tim C. (Baltimore)
“I purchased your CD in Toronto and I just am truly amazed by your talent and your voice. ‘I Married Myself’ is by far my favourite song! I look forward to your new CD. You certainly do have a wonderful voice and fabulous women-positive lyrics!”
-Emily F. (Toronto)
“I just wanted to tell you that I love your ‘My Little Flame’ CD. My fav [song] is ‘I Married Myself’ - sometimes life would be so much easier that way LOL. I can't wait ’til your next CD!!”
-Kimberly van de W. (Sacramento, soon-to-be Vancouver)
“I listened to some of [your] songs and I'm now a fan of you. I especially like ‘Something I Can Use’. Next CD shopping, ‘My Little Flame’ will definitely be on the top of the list.”
-Connie (Massachusetts)
“I, for one, look forward to your next CD being released. I've played ‘My Little Flame’ out!"
-Toni A. (Seattle)

I have been listening a bit more to ‘My Little Flame’ and can add a new favourite: ‘The Original Groundhog Day’, but still love ‘Wichita Lineman’. I hope that many other people will find their way to Kathryn Rose's music.”
