    Re: Suzanne "sighting" thread


     when i was packing my stuff a couple of months ago i found a cassete which was from 1990 - Hit Parade-. It had elton John's "Sacrifice", someone's "Lady in Red" ( i'm sure it must be famous, coz i keep hearing it anywhere and i still run away), and Suzanne's "Book of Dreams".
    I recall it was through that cassete that i listened to the song for the first time. and being a 10year old child who enjoyed Bananarama, Sandra, Belinda Carlisle, and so on... i can vividly remember i didn't like the guitar tune in the song and wanted more bells in it. Actually, i wanted it to sound like a Christmas song (i love the song for years now, and i worship that specific album as my personal pagan God). .

    well, i heard today about an archive website which seems to have virtually everything ever put on the net, and went to look for the first page of Vega.net. It didn't change in any way until 1999, when i discovered it for the first time. (and when i had internet for the first time, through a Sega Dreamcast) Here it is:

    btw, the net correspondance of 1995 and earlier is still empty in the current forum. Luckily it's still here, also archived:

    I had no idea Suzanne had been a receptionist ( do not ever underestimate my ignorance).  It's really cool to read some things that were projected and thought, but that got transformed along the way.
