I recommend anyone who wants to dig a bit more, to listen to "Tidal" and the rape song is "Sullen Girl" and I hope you have the guts to not want to jump off a cliff after listening to it. My admiration for the way she wrote that is so so big that I can just sit down and cry. The metaphor she uses to put her broken heart in words is so precious, so exquisite, how can someone transform such an awful horrible experience into such an incredible song with those words..... I know I could spend hours talking to Axl about Fiona's music, all her lyrics and dense songs, it would be an Emo Fest!! Fiona Apple gave me major feels whenever I listened to her music. I agree that her songs are all so heavy and emotional. Tori Amos and Sarah Mclachlan move me on the same level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody else thinks I'm a critter hater of Axl Anyway, after some hours of sleep, I agree with all of you that it is amazing Axl is out and about doing MUSIC things! I really hope he starts liking this again and puts himself out in shows but also in recorded music because in the end, that's gonna be his legacy. Performances are kind of ephemeral. But I'm not in Axl's somewhat age! Although, I surely know how to show him his place, which is by Erin's side . No, I don't think it's good for Axl to go back to the groupies, strippers and that kind of people.... They have nothing to do with him anymore. I don't like Michelle Young, nor Adriana Smith, Barbi, Pamela, Giuliana and all that bunch of.... ugh, I want him with someone good, strong, educated, with class, somewhat his age (lol), who can love him but also have her independent life being a great woman on her own... (meaning all things Erin is ) Fiona became popular in 1996 with her debut album "Tidal". I guess by that time Axl was going through various changes, crisis and losses in his life. Fiona's music is kind of depressive, at least her first two albums, but especially her first one deals with the sexual abuse she suffered when she was 12 years old. She has this song that is...omg... I can't begin to describe the power of the lyrics to that song, the subtlety she masters to give account of her pain, of the consequences of this abuse. I think Axl might have felt very touched by her story and the music she's written out of that. He's mentioned her many times as an artist he admires and I can totally see why, me being a huge fan of Fiona. She's not too easy to dig and most people label her as a feminist bitch but I love her and all the female musicians that surfaced during her time. Another great one from that era are Tori Amos and Ani Di Franco. Woooow!! I really hope someone cooked a duet of Axl and Pink while they were there! I'd like to see Axl keep collaborating with his own heroes but he should know he is the hero of many younger musicians and I would love and prefer that he honors a younger artist or maybe someone from his own generation. I always thought of you as a big fangirl with a critical, feminist mind. I know you love him and his music even though you hate a lot of things he did, said, etc. Don't know if I'm right about that but that's my impression so far. About the age thing - please I never meant you were around his age. I guess you must be more than 15 years younger but if he cannot get a woman around his age +- 8 years, than you'd be a good catch for him. I don't wanna see him with Erin though. I don't think he'd be good for her, just a gut feeling there of course. She comes around as still emotionally touchy and sensitive and their history is too complicated and - well - violent. 1 hour ago, Rocketqueen76 said: Fiona Apple gave me major feels whenever I listened to her music.

It is very likely what @killuridols and @Frey wrote about her music. Even though I always have to think about what Axl did to his women and I wonder if those kind of lyrics make him think about what he did to them or if he is only being egocentric about those things.

I was just fooling around and yes, I'm old like that but I'm not a good catch for anyone or not for Axl, I guess, I'm a mess with lots of issues just like him and we would just be like day and night. About Erin... *sigh*.... don't mind me.... I've gone too far with that. I better STFU. 51 minutes ago, Tori72 said: It is very likely what @killuridols and @Frey wrote about her music.

Probably it has made him reflect on it but I don't know.... The lyrics to Sullen Girl are gender neutral, in my opinion, and anyone can relate to them if they've been abused but if you have not, there's so much to learn from them that it takes your breath away with their beauty. I also think he may relate to her in other levels, as an artist, a rebel, as someone who protested being awarded by MTV, the pain that is in her voice and of course, the lyrics, all lyrics, she's so talented... Here's a great article and interview from Rolling Stone with Fiona, year 1998, everything you need to know about her as a new artist in the mid 90s is pretty much condensed in this story: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/fiona-the-caged-bird-sings-19980122 And here's an outstanding performance: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get this general impression too, but please don't anyone ask me to provide concrete proof cause I got nuthin' Just the general fact that you can't really go so deep into finding out what makes you tick and why you may be the way you are, and searching for answers to deep questions, without examining your own role and actions and mistakes. It's next to impossible I would think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
