Illume Lyrics...
In the song lyrics that I'm finding online, they're written as "Nag Champra..."
What I burn is... "Nag Champa..." Is that what she meant to say? Does she say that? One time I hear Champa then the next, Champra... Has anyone else noticed this? Or am I just hearing and finding the wrong lyrics?!

She deffinitely says Nag Champra and it is in the lyrics in cd book too, but yes the incense is Nag Champa and you would think Stevie would know that given she is a hippy
 . I could only ever think that maybe ChampRa is easier to say?

maybe there's some kind of legal/trademark issue with using the a brand name in a song.) She has pronounced it correctly in interviews before.

I think Nag Champa could be a particula so that is the only reason I can think of, not to mention if it was just a mis pronunciation then it would not have been written Mag ChampRa in the lyric sheets.

I've heard people call it Nag Champra too. I think it's a common mispronouciation of it. It's hard as a vocalist to keep all the lyrics straight 100% of the time. I sung in a band before and thank God people didn't record every single show we did. You do your best but sometimes you get lost in the passion of the song and your tongue and teeth don't go the right way. It happens.
Having said my singers defense, I do recall a time on the Arsenio Hall show when she was singing Stand Back and I swear she sings "First he took my car then he ran". Which I always thought given the strange lyrics it kind of fit. LOL!

My opinion on the Nag Champra thing is that she purposely does it to avoid trademark issues.

And anyone ever notice how elegantly she says "hand" while singing?
 It's very prominent in 7W. lol. It's cute. There are a few other times she sings it... but I can't remember right now. I'm gonna have to go through and find all the quirks that I've noticed. I shoulda written them down. lol  Oh yeah--in the "Everyday" video... does it bother any of you the way she looks when she says "senses yearning"? I don't know why, but I just don't watch that part.  And I've heard her say "I'm" as "am" many times... like in this video. "Don't turn away--am listenin'." lol Last edited by Stevie_Buck; 09-05-2005 at 04:46 AM..

Ha!
I just watched the SDMHA video... "Stop dragging my car (?) around..." I just love her.  And we can't forget... "Is love so fragile... and the heart so Haaaaa-O..." Last edited by Stevie_Buck; 09-05-2005 at 04:48 AM..

What's she saying??
For the longest time I thought in Dreams she was singing
"Like a heatbeat drives you back in the stillness of remembering..." And from the live albulm (where there was no lyrics sheet provided) Fireflies...what was she singing.... ?? I used to just make up words and sing along,  when I was able to find the lyrics ,it was "Oh...that's what she's saying"... and lets not forget: Angel "And to those that I love- like a ghost through the fog- like a charmed hour and a hunted song -and the Angel of my dreams..." Must have listened to those lines 100 times before I figured out what she was singing!
