I don't hear the R!!!!!!!

Infinity!

(Besides, Dissention, if we relied on the lyric book to be absolutely correct, we'd all be singing the lyrics to "Some Become Strangers" as the end of "Imperial Hotel", and the lyrics to "Imperial Hotel" would be at the end of "No Spoken Word".)

That booklet is a friggin' mess.

But she says champ-ra.

Personally, I think "champra" sounds more melodic... so I sing the same thing Stevie does.

Yep...she says ChapRa alright...

I didn't look at the lyric booklet for a while either...but kept listening to that song...and finally I was like...it totally sounds like she's putting an R in there...it was at that point that I got the booklet out...and well...there it is: Champra...that's what I hear...

I do not have time to look right now, but I think her journal entries on her website (www.nicksfix.com

John!!!! ) that contain the original lyrics to this song say "champra."

I can just picture the exchange between Stevie and Linds in the studio after the song was recorded:

Linds: Hey, I burned a stick of that smelly incense last night and it's actually called "Nag Champa."

Stevie: You can't make me change it. It's the poet that I am. You wouldn't correct Bob Dylan. It sounds soooooo beautiful.

Linds: But-

Stevie: Oy.

Linds: I-

Stevie: Want more than 40 dates?

Linds: Uh...

Stevie: Now, about the mixer...

I'd never heard of it before the song, either.
What was that Ambien/sleeping pill that I thought was a cocktail?

I can actually see this in my head. BWAH!!!

Stevie: You know what, Lindsey, Rhiannon burned nag champra.

*crickets chirping*

Lindsey: Uh huh. Where is my guitar?!!?!? HEY, WHERE IS MY TURNER!?!? RAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone like this stuff? I saw it at this mystical shop one day and thought of Stevie when I saw it, so I bought some and when I burned it, I did not care for it. And I like some insense (spelling?), but I guess I am just more of a candle person. This Nag Champa stuff was way too powerful! I'd rather smell a lit cigar (which I actually love the smell of!)

I love it. There are so many scents to choose from, which one did you buy?

Stevie: Rhiannon is in all of us. She surrounds us and her spirit emrges when Nag Champra is burned.

Linds: ****, the seventies were good to you.

I don't know. Mine doesn't say anything on it. I guess original, is that a scent? None of the boxes hade any scents on them, so I assume they didn't carry all the scents and just had "original". What kind are there?
