Great to see something - but does it really take a month to produce that? However, it's got the most important thing for Terra which will be the news pages. Let's hope the rest follows quickly.

mmm it does seem to have taken them quite a long time to produce something that looks quite simple. Even if it is a temporary thing. But i can't really judge, since i have no knowledge of web design things... Anyway, it's nice to be able to hear the album versions of 'Not Sorry' and 'Up Here', they sound great

mmmm i hope there going to change/add to it. Its a little corporate looking, I loved the look of the old site buy hey I must'nt grumble, its a website and its back!Woo Hoo. Good to have the audio sampler, the tunes all sound so polished, I will need to listen to them more, i've been so used to the live versions, i've been a bit spoilt. Gee i'm not really negative, i dont mean to come across that way.

I love our, I mean Terra's old website, too. (Interesting how I take joint ownership without paying the freight). No message board tab (cry). I will be patient. I will be patient. I will be patient....

It's nice to know they didn't change Up Here's studio version, too. Although I'm Happy was my favourite studio version. But oh well, the site is quite back! Let's hope it gets prettier with time. I'm somewhat frustrated by the fact that they seem to have cared so little about the site for what they could have done in this lapse of time. And on a separate note, I imagined the Not Sorry studio version as catchier song. At least she played it that way acoustically...

I thought it was going to be a little faster than that, because of the way she plays it live, but i think it sounds equally as fab ;D

Not Sorry sounded fabulous with just a bass guitar and drum backing at the ICA - and they'd only rehearsed it briefly. I think it might be one of those that will sound better live than from the studio recording. I'm really looking forward to hearing this at Brighton where I hope Terra will have her full band. Terra says it is OK to record it too so hopefully I'll be able to do that. Now nobody in a church is actually going to get heavy with me are they...

I will be patient.... You paid your fare with the intellectual content JP. Actually I quite like the style - it is clean and uncluttered, although this is clearly just the beginning. As for how long it would take to produce this - well not long once you have the idea. My guess is that Terra has been waiting in a queue for somebody to become available to do the work. Hopefully it won't take long to add the other bits, although converting all those old messages might be a tricky job. No doubt the message board interface will be all different although I would guess there are tools available to import alien formats.

I agree Steve re the live not sorry, I think it was the studio hearing that made me a little down beat. I love love loved the ica version. Yet I also see its just a case of having heard it one way and just needing to adjust to it in its new format. I know this will happen with most tunes on the album that i've grown to love before. Think this issue was talked about on the old forum...

Woohoo! Sloooow going on the site, but it's a start. That's pretty good news. She appears to be going with the idea of keeping it simple which is good for a quick and easy interface. Hopefully soon there will be more pics and videos along with the entire set of old messages complete with tangerine threads, wishful world tours, a once footloose and free Ming-May, and Famous Steve's 2000+ posts full of wit and wisdom.

it says full site coming soon so I hope it'll be a little more elaborate than what they've put up so far. The colors are a little cold with the grey and white in the picture and the black font on a white background. I hope the site will get a more happier look colorwise. And I don't think it took them too long to come up with this website. I'm not an expert but I've created websites myself using html and css and the only fancy thing is the player.
I agree on your thoughts on Not Sorry. I think the live version with a faster tempo has a spark to it that the slow recorded version lacks. But it's still a cool song!
