Gary's Girl February 5, 1996

You can hear a wave sound clip of Gary's Girl on a web site called A Frog Named Jethro. (Thanks Kate!)

Toriphile Bryan sent me the following information on Gary's Girl and the interview where Tori performed the song, as well as lyrics to the song:

"this is in response to your question about the radio interview on your new interview cd... there were *at least* two radio interviews on february 5th with tori -- she was really promoting the album heavily during early february. the interview on your disc is from 92.7 WDRE long island's modern rock. the other interview took place on 102.7 WNEW. in my opinion the WDRE interview is far superior to the one on WNEW. gary and tori had this great chemistry and were just having a great time. tori began the other interview in a playful mood, but the interviewer was much too worried about keeping tori to the subject (not letting tori wander off the subject like she likes to do) to have a playful, spontaneous conversation."

hopefully you have most of the interview on the disc. the songs she performed are as follows:

* a verse of onward christian solders (with gary singing tori playing piano)

* hey jupiter

* toodles mr jim (just a little bit... tori starts giggling and quits playing)

* about half of thunder road

* doughnut song

* gary's girl (lyrics below)




i'm gonna be gary's girl
six in the morning
my hands are roaming
cause i'm gary's girl
there's a little bit of heaven on 92.7
when you're gary's girl
the boy knows how to tune me in
my friends all call me gary's girl
he's just just just so happening
you bet your life he is
you bet your life he is
you bet your life
he's a peel not a bannana
he's a peel not a bannana

i think i'll be gary's girl
we're all alone with this microphone
so i'm gary's girl
he's coming around
cause i'm going down
("that's stretching it gary..." -- tori comments quickly between lines)
to gary's world
the boys know to tune me in
my friends all call me gary's girl
cause he's just so so so happening
you bet your life he is
you bet your life he is
you bet your life
he's a peel not a bannana
still a peel not a bannana
but he's just what he is
and he is and he is and he is...
