	Magali	Definitely Ziggy by Celine Dion...which is the story of young Celine secretly longing for a (gay) rugby player...Best song ever. Too bad you do not speak French. The original (French) version is even better (worse). http://youtube. com/watch?v=wVHcG-lb6ok Oh Ziggy, I call him Ziggy I'm so hot for him He's not at all like all the rest But he's held out and he's the best Even if I know He would never go with me Ziggy, they call him Ziggy I'm so hot for him And when I saw him that first day I went and gave myself away Oh so indiscreet Oh but he was sweet to me Four a.m. he's here by my side Talking, laughing and making friends Making fun of me too He can do whatever he wants I don't mind, but he pretends Not to see what I go through Ziggy, my crazy Ziggy I get weak for him He lives a life that I can't share I don't know why but I know where Oh it breaks my heart Knowing I'm not part of him Why won't he try anything new? I would be his very best And his first, in many ways Oh if I were one of his boys Thin and languid and self-possessed So in demand nowadays - oh Ziggy, my crazy Ziggy I get weak for him He lives a life that I can't share I don't know why but I know where Oh it breaks my heart Knowing I'm not part of him Baby Ziggy   Posted by Magali on Saturday, May 10, 2008 - 1:55 AM [Reply to this]

Also, if you were to hump your stool while you were playing a song, that woul putt you Tori Amos. Peace out.   Posted by Bruizilla #420 on Sunday, May 11, 2008 - 2:15 AM [Reply to this]

	Laura Laura Pitcon	Kia Ora Anika, Kei te pehia koe? I'd love to hear you cover "crazy yes, dumb no" by the Mint Chicks. I know you've done it but fuck it'd be good to hear.

	Chris Rakete	oh oh. I know.. I request '2010' by the mint chicks.. I know know.. everyone wants/ed to hear you play crazy yes dumb no, fuck up with the mint chicks requests already!.. but yeah.. this is a real sweet song. they got it on their myspace if ya ain't heard it. hehe, I was thinking of covering it but I can't work out the words or the solo so I'm gonna do a different one instead. ooh ooh ooh.. OORRR - 'you've got to hide your love away' by the Beatles (though pretty much just John and the occasional tamborine.. that he might've even played).. but yeah.. I know you love that cunt too!.. would be beeautiful to hear you sing his song :)   Posted by Chris Rakete on Sunday, May 11, 2008 - 6:42 AM [Reply to this]

	Emma Walter	Kiaora Anika The Westies could do with an awesome gig. Be sure to wear that black t and pisswash jeans... Too much...? However, you might like to sing "Lover, You Should've Come Over" and/or "Everybody Here Wants You" - Jeff Buckley "State of Emergency" - Bjork (I think that's the name of the song - BEOOOTIFUL tho) "Even Angels Need Love Too" - Ben Harper "Blind Woman" - don't chicken out this time - it WILL be amazing even if it's only you singing it... Be good to have you back - Moas really are extinct in NZ now - it's just not the same...   Posted by Emma Walter on Sunday, May 11, 2008 - 11:53 PM [Reply to this]

	Emma Walter	Kiaora Anika The Westies of Auckland need a good gig - mind you wear the black t and jeans though... Too much??? However, maybe you would like to sing "Even Angels Need Love Too" Ben Harper "State of Emergency" - Bjork - (I think that's the name of the song - LOVE it) "Lover, You Should've Come Over" or "Everybody Here Wants You" - Jeff Buckley - YUM!!! "Blind Woman" - a pretty cool song by this NZ chick that never played it on her tour last time... ...Neato. Be good to have the Moa vibe back sister.   Posted by Emma Walter on Sunday, May 11, 2008 - 11:54 PM [Reply to this]

	Claire	...I want to have your babies. Please? ...ah, fuck, I'm a girl too. This will never work. TO THE SCIENCE MOBILE! Seriously, though. COME TO INVERCARGILL. (It's so much fun here! We have...tuatara! And a water tower! And...oh, shit, I dunno. Um. Boy racers from Gore? NO NO WAIT COME BACK! ;_;) Now that I've proved beyond all doubt I'm a freak, I'm going to request OBSCURITY. Here we go! "Bukowski" -- Modest Mouse (BONUS POINTS FOR BANJO) (http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=xr_B2IOUYSw) "All Sparks" -- Editors (ACOUSTIC GUITARS MAKE ME HORNY) (http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=RMjc-1xfcFo) "My Number" -- Tegan and Sara (LESBIANS ARE MY FRIENDS) (http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=7-UiLP-BIhY) ...any one of those is good. And if they all suck? CROWDED HOUSE NEVER GOES ASTRAY. GIVE ME "WHISPERS AND MOANS" 'CAUSE NEIL NEVER WILL. ...in other news, sometimes I still kick the wall because I didn't have any means of recording that beautiful rendition of "Good In My Head" you did with the Christchurch Symphony a few years back. Woe! ...but I'll go away now. God, I hate mySpace. But at least this way I get to request odd songs from an odder musician! :D (...great, now you'll really never come to Invervegas. Dammit!)   Posted by Claire on Thursday, May 22, 2008 - 11:17 AM [Reply to this]

	Peter	Hi Anika your music reaches as far as little ole Scotland. I saw you perform backing with Bic on the Birds tour in Glasgow. You shoould come to play here soon. I have two of you albums and plan of ordering In Swings The Tide as My Old Man is my favorite song right now I cant get it out my head. I wouldnt get to see you do your cover but its a great idea and would be nice if you dedicated the song to the person who was chose it. Bic and stellar* are obvious choices. Roll Into One, She Left On A Monday. Breather, For A While. You could also cover Anika Moa Ive heard she's pretty good. Another female singer I like is Tasmin Archer I think one of her songs might be a good choice. From her album Great Expectations there is Sleeping Satellite and I think you could do a good job of her single In Your Care a dark song that I think was about child abuse and the chorus is "Son Of A Bitch You Broke My Heart I Need A Little Loving To Take Away The Pain. How Could You Let Me Down When Im In Your Care" My Favorite Tasmin song of that album is When It Comes Down To It. I know if you covered that song it would be perfect. If you havent heard the songs then there are some samples thanks Peter. http://www. amazon. co. uk/Great-Expectations-Tasmin-Archer/dp/B000002UQB/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1211458933&sr=8-1   Posted by Peter on Thursday, May 22, 2008 - 10:31 PM [Reply to this]

	bofa Debbie Larkins	Hey... I heard your version of 'Silver Springs' and now have it stuck in my head. IT ROCKED!!! There are soooo many songs that would sound wicked with your unique twist thrown in for added flavour, but one I would love to hear at your Masonic Tavern gig in Aucks is 'Silent All these Years', by Tori Amos.
