I remember it became everybody’s favorite album when it was first released -
Fingertips
Let the Light In replied to Elle's topic in Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd
I think Dark Paradise and Fingertips are connected, and she has been talking about her su*cide attempt in the ocean: "All my friends tell me I should move on I'm lying in the ocean, singing your song ...I wish I was dead (dead, like you)" "When I was fifteen, naked, next-door neighbors did a drive-by Pulled me up by my waist, long hair to the beach side I wanted to go out like you, swim with the fishes" On these following lines she is talking about a rebirth, as she was saved from the ocean and became a star she is today; like the goddess Aphrodite was born from the sea: "Let it crash over me like the waves in the sea Call me Aphrodite as they bow down to me"- 139 replies

I think you're right and it makes more sense in the context of the song. -

I want electric guitar and drum driven Candy Necklace because deep-down I'm an Ultraviolence Whore.

By the way her French interview has some really interesting insights about the album: I wonder if what she talks about below, inspired her to go record J*dah Smith's sermon "They make a lot of noise, but it's not a choir: they are three women, two of whom have toured with Whitney Houston for a long time. My voice also occupies the ground there, massively [she sings the intro]. At first, they crash on my words, burst out laughing and restart beautifully. I kept this sublime moment on the album. It's perfectly imperfect: I finally had the beginning of the album. When I went to Memphis and swam in the Wolf River, I had one goal: to attend a mass at the church where Al Green officiates. But it's pretty secret, so I went to church every day, I knocked on the door without answer. And one day, finally, I came across the service. It was crazy, but it was too late to record an entire choir on The Grants. "Grant" is my last name, but to talk about her, I used the word of my priest, it simplified everything... "My Pastor told me...". It's practical: it's not me who speaks!" She also says "Jimmy Jimmy Cocoa Puff.... It's a phrase I've been hanging around since my relationship with singer Barrie-James O'Neill" which we've learned from the song Earthquakes just recently.

Usually when someone decides to go on a tour, we have rumors coming out months before the announcement, because of venue bookings. Were there any venue bookings that indicate she is actually going on a tour?

"Spin it ‘til you whip it into white cream baby Print it into black and white pages, don't faze me Before you talk, let me stop what you're saying I know, I know, I know that you hate me" I love this verse so much, just copy-paste it to reply to spiteful stories about her.- 31 replies

That's so cute. I bet she just pushed random buttons on synthesizer and they credited her. Now I wonder which part of the song. Could it be at 10:35, there's someone talking on the left channel but it would be so random to credit him over that. Maybe it was an inside joke. He talked while they were recording and they credited him.

Do we have any information from venues? Usually, tours are rumored months before announcement because venues have booking information and it easily spreads.
