she's very much appreciated in my cd player nod i recommend getting her live album called "Performances" if you don't already own it. i'd love to see her and Anastacia do a duet.

As anyone ever asked her what she thinks of Anastcia in an interview...they are so similar sounding. And whatever happened to Taylor's attempted comebck?

I've always loved Taylor and I think my favorite song by her is the underestimated "I'll Be Your Shelter", with all it's soul and passion. It's among her big top tens but I think it gets kind of lost and people either think of her more for the huge ballad "Love Will Lead You Back" or the club smash "Tell It To My Heart".

yeah. i'd love to hear what they think of eachother. as far as her comeback; i remember a lot of buzz around that VH1 show...but sadly it ended there. i remember she was sort of hesitant/defiant to do what the record company wanted. which is great from an artistic stand point, but unfortunately a career killer in others. i know her last album was re-released with some bonus tracks and she's had about 2 off the wall singles. i'll have to ask a friend of mine who is a MAJOR Taylor Dayne fan though. wink


and i agree. "I'll Be Your Shelter" is over looked. "Send Me A Lover" is probably my favourite track by her.

Over on Taylor's website, the 2 moderators are teasing people saying that there is some major news (that they can't tell us yet) that will make everyone happy.

They are saying it's HUGE news, The only thing it could be is Taylor finally getting a record deal, and releasing a new album. Maybe a major record deal.

Her last album came out in 1998 on an independent label.

For those who don't know, Taylor got re-signed to Arista/BMG a few years ago, but lost her record deal when the Sony/BMG merger happened.

I know that affected Tears For Fears also.

That was for that kiddie soundtrack to "Lizzie McGuire".

I know, that was just embarassing. Thanks to Hilary Duff, Taylor made some money off that soundtrack. It went platinum.

Last night was awesome. My two friends that I took along were blown away by her voice, they were not aware of how great of a singer she really is.

She did all her hits including: Tell it to my heart, Prove your love, Can't Get Enough, I'll be your shelter, etc.

Other than the hits, she did a few covers and a brand new song.

The brand new song was called "Crash". Very catchy pop rock kind of a song, it reminded me of Tina Turner perhaps. She said it was from her new album!

Her covers included "Maybe I'm Amazed" (Paul McCartney & Wings), "You Got The Love" (Rufus & Chaka Khan) and "Fool To Cry" ( The Rolling Stones).

The background singers and her keyboardist got a chance to shine as well.

They can really sing!

I met Taylor's mother! I also met Wendy the Snapple lady! I kid you not. LOL.

Unfortunately I did not get to greet Taylor this time, it was pretty packed in there.

Her encores were "Tell it to my heart", "You Got The Love" and "Love Will Lead You Back".

She was selling merchandise including the new DVD (the one from Canada), not the major one that's being recorded on 8/1 obviously. It was packed in there, so I was ready to leave, I didn't buy it.

I think I'm going to wait for the other DVD. The one from Canada did not have any of these newer songs on it. It's her older playlist.

Other than getting caught in the rain last night on the way home, it was a great night.
