Rolling Stone's Tanya's Raves March 24, 1994
( Thanks to Brian! )
Salt-n-Pepa w/En Vogue "Whatta Man": "It's probably the sexiest thing I've heard in a long time. They're in control, and it's a great song. It encourages men to figure out where the button is"
"Like Water For Chocolate": "My beauty choice. It's incredibly well filmed. The sister who runs away on the horse, she's my favorite."
Jeanette Winterson "Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit (And Other Books)": "She has a very weird, warped, fairy-tail style as a writer. I think she's the most quotable author around right now."
Madder Rose "Panic On": "The group's new album. Mary Lorson has an amazing voice. She's emotive without being dramatic."
Kids in the Hall: "Because they keep me laughing, and that helps prevent cancer - I think!"
Fida Kahlo: "Her paintings are very spiritual, rich and full. I feel that Kahlo had a real sense of herself from the second that she was born, and that's rare."
"The Misfits": "Marilyn Monroe is amazing. There's a scene where Clark Gable says to her: 'You have to be the saddest girl I've ever met. What makes you so sad?' A great moment, because it makes her shine when he says that. Everything in her face relaxes."
New Orleans: "The air there is so fucking charged, and I don't know why."
Pavement "Slanted and Enchanted": "We listen to them a lot when we're on the road. I like their looseness. They're so open to any influence that comes along."
Dr. Jack Kevorkian: "He provides dignity to the dying. I think it makes sense. Tubes hanging out of a dying person - that's cruelty."
