Inflight media inquiries: [email protected] Biography ‘The Boy With No Name’ is a belting collection of bittersweet pop songs from the band who do bittersweet pop music better than anyone. It’s no exaggeration to say that every song - including the velcro-catchy bonus track - is a potential single. Clearly, Healy’s knack for crafting brilliant songs from life’s highs and lows hasn’t deserted him. “Song for song, I honestly think it’s stronger than anything we’ve done,” says the band’s ever-amiable bassist Dougie Payne. “Frannie just seemed to be completely inspired.” TRAVIS - The boy with no name It’s been three and a half years since Travis’s last studio album, ‘12 Memories’, a record which Healy now describes as “a therapy session”. As Payne adds “I really like that album but we were still recovering from all the madness of the previous few years.” Madness like going from selling 40,000 copies of your first album (1997’s ‘Good Feeling’) to going multi-platinum with your next two (1999’s ‘The Man Who’ and 2001’s ‘The Invisible Band’). Or madness like when the band’s drummer, Neil Primrose, dived head first into the shallow end of a swimming pool in 2002, shattering his upper vertebrae and endangering his life. Or, indeed, madness like the fact the country the band grew up in had flung itself into a war which they didn’t agree with. “That record was like a purge of the system,” says Healy. Once they’d finished promoting ‘12 Memories’, the band decided to take their first proper break. “I just thought, ‘I need to live’,” explains Healy . “My best songs have always been drawn from experience and life. So I decided to take some time off, just to be with people I care about, go on holiday, hang out and get away from the intensity of the music business.” By the autumn of 2004, the band were refreshed enough to reconvene. To kick things off, Travis went into the studio with Brian Eno to bounce some ideas around. That got their creative juices flowing and the band fell into a process whereby Healy would write some songs, the band would record them and then they’d get producers Nigel Godrich or Mike Hedges to come in and offer their opinions. There would be intense bursts of activity, followed by a few weeks or months off. During the breaks, Healy kept himself busy by becoming a father, visiting the Sudan with Save The Children and playing the odd show (2005’s live highlight was either playing Live 8, headlining the Isle of Wight festival or performing at the annual Crouch End carol concert). Then, when it felt right, the band would go back into the studio. “We were just very, very relaxed about everything,” says Healy. So much so that they invited various friends to join them for recording sessions, including Hollywood A-lister (and Travis fan) Ben Stiller, who played cowbell during one session. “I really enjoyed being in the studio this time,” says Payne. “I think we all did. It sounds wanky, but some amazing things happened while we were just playing together. It really galvanised us as a band.” Before long, it became apparent that they had a lot of songs. A lot of good songs. “The volume of stuff we recorded was amazing,” says Payne. “We ended up with 30 or 40 tracks. The fact that whittling it down to 11 was so difficult speaks volumes about the quality of the songwriting that was going on. We’ve never been in the position before where we’ve had too many songs. Even with ‘The Man Who’ we only had 8 or 9 right up until a very late stage.” ‘The Boy With No Name’ was finally finished in December 2006. “That was when I stopped getting the voices in my head at night telling me it wasn’t ready yet,” grins Healy. “Now I’m really content that we’ve done a great thing and that it’s time to get it out there.” The album begins with the enchanting ‘Three Times And You Lose’, a classic Travis song about “feeling trapped and anonymous in the big city”. Things then take a turn for the sprightly, with ‘Selfish Jean’, a track whose rollicking introduction was inspired by Iggy Pop and Motown, yet disguises a barbed song about broken friendships. That gives way to the so-in-love warmth of first single ‘Closer’ and the positively groovesome ‘Big Chair’, which marries Healy’s tale of loneliness and rejection with the funkiest performance ever given by Travis’s rhythm section. Next is ‘Battleships’, a wonderfully lilting tune which pinpoints those times when two people who love each other find themselves at war over “the stupid, niggly things, like directions when you’re in the car”. Then it’s onto the stomping hymn to insomnia that is ‘Eyes Wide Open’ and the absurdly hooky ‘My Eyes’, which Healy wrote the day he discovered he was going to be a dad (the album also takes its title from Healy’s son, Clay, whose name took several weeks to decide). That leads nicely onto the widescreen emotions of ‘One Night’, a gorgeous, heartfelt song about those brief moments that change your life forever. The delicate ‘Out In Space’ - “out in space, a million miners work upon the nights coal face” - is another song looking at friendships as they go through good times and bad, before the stirring Payne/Healy collaboration ‘Colder’ offers both Travis’s finest weather-related song since ‘Why Does It Always Rain On Me?’ and proof that Healy is a cracking harmonica player. The album draws to a close with ‘New Amsterdam’, a hymn to New York, the city Healy has fallen so in love with that he’s bought a flat there. Last, but not certainly not least, is that insanely catchy bonus track, ‘Sailing Away’, “a daft little ditty” which Healy wrote one day while sitting in his back garden mourning the death of his giant goldfish, Mr Pink. The album certainly has its emotional ups and downs, but, throughout, it glows with a newfound confidence and a softly expressed hopefulness. “I’ve been calling it ‘guarded optimism’,” says Payne. “This record is definitely more upbeat and positive than the last one. When you’ve got great songs, you feel more confident, that means you start playing great and then everything starts to feel more positive. I think that definitely bled through to the record.” Travis are back, and ready to resume their place on the airwaves, on stages and in people’s affections. “After a time of feeling stuck, we feel like we can do anything,” agrees Healy. “We went through some dark places. But we’ve found our muse again.” Boeing MD-11 Entertainment These products are available from the aft galley between the meals on all intercontinental flights.

Boeing MD-11 Entertainment Evanescence Biography Having sold nearly 14 million records worldwide, well more than 6 million in the U.S. alone, with their major-label debut Fallen, Evanescence is poised to continue their meteoric rise with their new CD, The Open Door (Wind-up Records). The album from the two-time Grammy-winning band is defined by Amy Lee’s beautiful melodies, compelling lyrics, poignant piano and stunning vocals, fused with Terry Balsamo’s urgent, yet intricate guitar, to form a seamless, ethereal mixture that perfectly channels the band’s hard rock and classical sensibilities. The contributions of members John LeCompt (guitar) and Rocky Gray (drums) are also evident. “Making this record has been really intense,” explains Lee. “Terry suffered a stroke last October and is still recovering, we got a new manager [Andy Lurie], and I’ve come out of a difficult break-up. But everything we’ve been through together has benefited this album.” With Fallen, says Lee, the band had much to prove while defining its identity. This time, finding a cohesive writing partner in Terry Balsamo, “we really took our time crafting this album and had the freedom to express a broader range of emotions: not just pain and sadness, but also anger and, yes, even happiness.” Written late last year, The Open Door was recorded at The Record Plant in Los Angeles and mixed at Ocean Way Studios in March 2006. Marking the return of long-time friend and producer Dave Fortman, the album’s musical elements include a classically-infused choir and strings recorded in an old chapel on several tracks, giving further color to songs of introspection, longing, doubt, self-respect and, ultimately, empowerment. The album opens with “Sweet Sacrifice,” a post-relationship catharsis that head-dives from an otherworldly intro into a hard-driving thrash of hard rock guitars and soaring rock vocals. Its first single, the mid-tempo “Call Me When You’re Sober,” reinforces the moving-away-from-dysfunction theme. Other standout tracks on The Open Door include “Lithium,” which embraces feeling over numbness, “All That I’m Living For,” Lee’s tribute to band life, “Weight of the World,” her plea for perspective from the expectation of young fans, and “Good Enough,” a string-and-choirinfused closer distinguished as the band’s first truly (almost) contented song (“It feels really good ending the album this way,” says Lee). Having toured for a year-and-a-half straight with only a month off following the release of Fallen, Evanescence hopes to hit the road this time out with a care not to neglect key markets worldwide. Its U.S. tour began immediately after the October 3 debut of The Open Door, rewarding hardcore fans with a “sneak peak” at the album handful of more intimate theater dates before segueing into much larger arena shows. Originally hailing from Little Rock, Arkansas, the band’s evolving sound – a nearly mystical marriage between rock, goth and classical – was informed by a curious duality. Lee, who spent nine years studying classical piano, explains, “When I was in high school I listened to a lot of death metal bands. Both genres are intricate, complex types of music that are very dramatic, and I’m naturally drawn to that.” Evanescence self-released two EPs and a first full-length album, the much-sought-after Origin, before finding a home at Wind-up Records. Fallen, their major-label debut, was released in April 2003 to critical and commercial success. The internationally appealing Top 10 singles “Bring Me to Life” and “My Immortal” helped drive airplay and led to two 2003 Grammy Awards (Best New Artist and Best Hard Rock Performance for “Bring Me To Life”). Propelling the band to sales of nearly 14 million albums worldwide, Fallen spent more than 100 weeks on Billboard’s Top 200 chart, was certified gold or platinum in over 35 countries, and sold out arenas globally. Anywhere But Home, their 2004 live DVD release, has sold over one million copies to date. The inherent drama in Evanescence’s music – a kind of audio odyssey that can turn on a dime from piano-led introspection to hammering guitar – has resonated with listeners everywhere. The band’s aggressive core finds a counterpart in Lee’s passionate vocals, lyrics that forge a connection with audiences searching for identity or struggling with feelings of desire, hope, love and loss. The Open Door is a logical (but certainly not predictable) transformation of epic proportions for the band, which, in many ways has only just begun to make its mark on the music world.

HAPPY FEET BLOOD DIAMOND Voices: Elijah Wood, Robin Williams, Hugh Jackman Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Connelly, Djimon Hounsou In the great nation of Emperor Penguins, deep in Antarctica, you’re nobody unless you can sing, which is unfortunate for Mumble, who is the worst singer in the world. He is born dancing to his own tune... tap dancing. Away from home for the first time, Mumble meets a posse of decidedly un-Emperor-like penguins – the Adelie Amigos. Led by Ramon, the Adelies instantly embrace Mumble’s cool dance moves and invite him to party with them. Together with Lovelace and the Amigos, Mumble sets out across vast landscapes and, after some epic encounters, proves that by being true to yourself, you can make all the difference in the world. Set against the backdrop of civil war and chaos in 1990’s Sierra Leone, Blood Diamond is the story of Danny Archer – a South African mercenary – and Solomon Vandy – a Mende fisherman. Both men are African, but their histories as different as any can be, until their fates become joined in a common quest to recover a rare pink diamond that can transform their lives. While in prison for smuggling, Archer learns that Solomon – who was taken from his family and forced to work in the diamond fields – has found and hidden the extraordinary rough stone.

Rahman Boeing MD-11 Entertainment 23 Biography ‘Send Away The Tigers’ by Nicky Wire The Manic Street Preachers have been through a process of destroying what we are. All great bands do that... but ever since Everything Must Go and This Is My Truth we’ve been trying to reduce ourselves to a pile of rubble. So, for Send Away The Tigers, we’ve been listening back to Everything Must Go and even the youthful idealism of Generation Terrorists, placing ourselves back at being 18 or 21 again, and reconnecting with all the things that made us so excited back then. Cynicism is brilliant. But it gets to a point where it’s not helpful when you’re in a band. Send Away The Tigers isn’t a high concept album, but the theory behind it is important. We’ve written about 30 songs for this album, and we’ve been fiercely editing this time because in the past we’d perhaps put too much on some of our albums. These are the best ten songs. It’s short... 38 minutes. When we started this album it was the three of us, in a rehearsal room, making a right old racket. Sometimes you have to learn from your own past. James playing huge guitar solos without me and Sean going, “Stop wanking!” We just felt liberated. We began writing for the album in late 2005, and began recording in earnest in March 2006 with Dave Eringa. The album was recorded at Stir Studios in Cardiff and Grouse Lodge in County Westmeath in Ireland, finished in November 2006, and then mixed in California by Chris Lord-Alge (Green Day, My Chemical Romance). At the same time, James and I released and performed our first solo albums, The Great Western and I Killed The Zeitgeist respectively. Doing the solo albums has been really important and really helpful in terms of letting us do the albums we wanted to do in a vain kind of way... and then realising what we’re genuinely great at. Doing the few solo gigs that I did, meeting people and being stimulated and having loads of fun, I realised that The Manics had lost that element of fabulous disaster... the Technicolor moment of the Sex Pistols being so hilarious, as well as serious. The Clash and the Sex Pistols are our biggest inspirations. We’ve denied it for a long time. But they are. And on this album, we’ve gone back to source. We never contemplated splitting. We didn’t have a friction-based disaster because we’re not those kind of people. But there was a general malaise. If we hadn’t done that small tour after Lifeblood in late 2004, which reminded us what people like about us... I don’t think we would have split up, because we get on too well, but we might have fizzled out. We’ve just announced our tour and this is the fastest our tickets have sold out in about ten years. That process of re-connecting is beginning. Send Away The Tigers is a phrase the comedian Tony Hancock used whenever he started drinking. I saw a parallel between that line and the animals being released from the zoo in Baghdad when the Allies invaded. A misguided idea of liberation. Also that idea of being haunted by a wrong decision. With Hancock it was sacking his writers. And, if it weren’t for the Iraq war, for all his faults, in historical terms, Tony Blair would be seen as a great Prime Minister. Now his life is utterly ruined. On a smaller scale, certain things I’ve said which have been stupid and inane... they’re what I’m gonna be remembered for. As far as my lyrics on the album are concerned, I just realised that being angry was a good thing. As long as I could control it, make it less nihilistic than my solo album. I Killed The Zeitgeist gave me an opportunity to embrace nihilism in all its beauty. I thought if I could just take all those elements and be less afraid of having some really important words. Because you do get scared, when everything around you is so on the surface and light. Every alternative band has just been sucked into nothingness. Everyone’s jaded. When we started we thought the most shocking thing we could do, because of indie snobbery, was say that we wanted to be like Bruce Springsteen and The Clash... we wanna be huge. Our oddness was our normalness. Now, hopefully, 24 it’s our idealism - the John Lydon idea that anger is an energy - that’s gonna separate us. You have to be direct. The Guilty Pleasures thing has also had a bearing, especially with James who knows Sean Rowley very well. Guilty Pleasures did that classic thing of making you feel better about some of the records you like. We love classic radio records by The Eagles, Boston and REO Speedwagon, and we wanted to get back to that, but with our obvious lyrical bent. Autumnsong, in particular... James was really trying to deconstruct that song at one point because it was so obvious that it was Sweet Child O’ Mine and Aerosmith’s I See You Crying. And I just had to sit him down at one point and say, “if it sounds like you’re ripping off Slash... it’s a good thing. It’s what you are.” From that moment on, we didn’t really have to work on anything. It just came naturally. We talked about not being afraid to be a tad clich(d. When we play live, we are a cliché - we play Paradise City and get up on the Marshall stacks. The hook line “Baby what you done to your hair?” is really close to an Aerosmith song. But it’s a song about being young and connecting with something you love... a girl, a record you want to play twenty times in a row. Things that give you the power to go outside and believe you can actually do something. You get drenched in paranoia, being in a band. And it’s stupid. Being in a rock ‘n’ roll band is just a euphoric kick. Sean has written a lot more of the music with James this time around. And I wrote half of the music for the first single, Your Love Alone Is Not Enough, which features Nina Persson of The Cardigans, who I think are one of the great underrated bands and I love her voice. It’s a complicated lyric. What it’s trying to say on one level is that any single element is never enough for a country to survive. You can’t solely have religion, or love, or democracy. We need all these elements for any country to be coherent. It is also about people and specifically, suicide. There are just too many people I’ve known who have killed Boeing MD-11 Entertainment a good thing. As you get older you wonder if it’s just one evil replacing another. And the song is pure rockabilly... “Brand New Cadillac” and The Stray Cats’ “Runaway Boys”. themselves. James was like, “Great. Another fucking song about suicide! I thought you did all that on your solo album?” I guess people will assume it is about Richey too. He was in a successful band, he could have had a nice girlfriend if he wanted, and we all loved him. But... it wasn’t enough. Whether its suicide or not, obviously, we don’t know. But... there’s a line in there: “I could have seen for miles and miles/I could’ve shown you how to smile/I could’ve shown you how to cry”... it’s just that feeling of regret. Could someone have done more? As for Rendition... when The CIA fly people somewhere to be tortured they call it “extraordinary rendition”. I found that really weird. With Guantanamo Bay, America found a place in Cuba - their greatest enemy! - Which they got hold of somehow, which is even weirder, and this place is above the law, and then they take it to the sky, which is also above the law. Take ‘em to Uzbekistan, torture ‘em there. It’s such a bizarre concept for a country that prides itself on this mythical bullshit called “the rule of law”. What are they gonna do next, build a prison camp on the moon? The song’s also about the actor Jack Lemmon. Because of the person he was and the films he made in the ‘70s like The China Syn- Boeing MD-11 Entertainment drome and Missing... he was the America we respected. The line in there, “Oh my God! I sound like a liberal!” is to give it all some kind of sense of humour. This album is serious. But it’s important for me to say, “It’s only me talking... what does it matter?” If you get it, you get it. But if you don’t, you don’t. I’m Just A Patsy is along the same lines. No-one has given us credit for a sense of humour since This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours. When you get big, you can get po-faced and serious, and we’ve been guilty of that. But if you know us as people... I mean, look at what I wear onstage! I understand why people think we’ve got no sense of humour, because we were just so bizarre and ridiculous when we started that we could get away with anything. Imperial Bodybags is another view of America. We castigate Americans as thick, evangelical idiots and it’s unfair. So the song is just about the obvious - when an American soldier comes home from Iraq in a coffin, his people feel it just as bad as anyone else’s. Not everyone is an American Idiot. It’s also about the massacre of the Russian royal family in the Bolshevik revolution. I’ve spent half my life believing that was 25 We’ve included our cover of John Lennon’s Working Class Hero as a hidden track. I really got into Plastic Ono Band when I was doing my solo album. This song is a witty, sardonic, genius lyric, with three chords, easy to play. And it just seemed really applicable. There aren’t many bands anymore that come from a working-class background because there is less class-consciousness in Britain now. Maybe that’s a good thing. But the song just fitted naturally into the scheme of things. Indian Summer does refer to what I hope The Manics are having. That’s the purpose, really. There’s no point carrying on if we don’t. We’ve had a brilliant career, but most of all, we’ve stayed amazing friends, which in rock ‘n’ roll, is very rare. The song has the same beat as A Design For Life I think we’re the only band that does that kind of waltz. The lyrics are really joyous and uplifting. It’s about friendship, really... really unManics things, ‘cos we hate things like pride and friendship... its all so Bono. But friendship’s seen us through a lot, and that must count for something. When the three of us are together, there’s no real feeling like it that we can get anywhere else. You can say anything no matter how foul or bad and no one takes it that seriously, you work things out together. It’s not like we go drinking or take drugs together. We just sit, talk or not talk, watch, read, listen. It’s a beautiful thing. On this record, James is trying to fit a lot of words into a line again. I didn’t tailor anything for him. On Send Away The Tigers he’s literally out of breath by the time he gets to the chorus. I used to worry about my words not being heard or understood. A lot. But that’s been to our detriment. Because when we don’t worry, we make ‘If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next’ which is our biggest song round the world. And it’s impossible to understand that record. There’s an essence to certain things, which you can’t explain. Perhaps that’s why, on Send Away The Tigers, we’ve decided not to be ashamed of what we’re good at.

And the diversity is astonishing. “Capillarian Crest” alternates between jazzy tendrils and moshpit-rattling ferocity, sounding like a fierce amalgam of Motorhead, King Crimson and Rush, “Hunters of the Sky” is a surging, off-kilter race with drums as tumultuous as Keith Moon and “Pendulous Skin” is a expansive and celestial, with guitars reminiscent at times of Deep Purple and Pink Floyd. “I really wanted to do guitar cartwheels and finger gymnastics on this record,” says Hinds. “There are more solos on this than any other Mastodon album, but every part, no matter how complex, is there for a reason. We just really went for it more than we’ve ever done.” The music of Blood Mountain isn’t all that separates Mastodon from the hordes of trendy metal bands. The lyrics are also pretty out there. Like Mastodon’s remarkable 2004 record Leviathan – which earned Album of the Year honors in Revolver, – Blood Mountain is a brain-teasing concept album. But while Leviathan was based on Herman Melville’s 1851 novel “Moby Dick,” Mastodon hatched the multitiered plot for the new album out of their own demented minds. The disc tells the story of a quest to ascend Blood Mountain to find a crystal skull, reach the top and insert the skull inside the band members’ own heads in order to eradicate “reptile brain” and transport them to the next phase of human evolution. Of course, the trek is far from simple. Psychedelic imagery notwithstanding, Blood Mountain is ultimately a metaphor for the obstacles and triumphs Mastodon have encountered since they began their musical crusade. The band formed in 1999 shortly after ex-Lethargy and ex-Today is the Day members Dailor (drums) and Bill Kelliher (guitar) moved from Rochester, New York to Atlanta. One night, during a High on Fire show, the two met exFour Hour Fogger bassist Sanders and guitarist Hinds and started talking underground metal. “We were all familiar with each other’s histories,” says Sanders, “because we were fans of Today is the Day. And Bill had seen our band play opening for Neurosis when he was visiting Atlanta in ‘98. They said they needed a second guitar player and a bass player to form this new band, and we were like, ‘Well, hey, dude, here we are. Hell, yeah.’ Two or three days later, Boeing MD-11 Entertainment we were down in the practice space making a racket just to see if the vibe would gel, and within five minutes it felt like a done deal.” After playing Ozzfest last year, Mastodon started working on songs for Blood Mountain. They wrote tirelessly for five and a half weeks, about two weeks longer than they had to write Leviathan. The extra time gave them the luxury to demo the songs before they recorded them – something they’d never had the chance to do – as well as experiment with different techniques that give the songs extra flavor and texture. “Circle Cysquatch” features a harrowing vocoder voiceover, “Bladecatcher” includes squelching vocals that sound like an angry R2D2 and “Crystal Skull” opens with tinny tribal clatter before thundering into the opening riff. Mastodon recorded the album with Bayles from the middle of February until the beginning of April. Again, it was more time than they’d ever had, but this time there were the added pressures of living up to their own legacy, and it never felt like there was enough hours in the day. “We sat and listened to everything at the end of every day and talked about how the songs were coming along and what we wanted to change,” Sanders says. “After a while, I kind of felt like the world was on our shoulders. We just wanted to make the coolest music possible and make sure it was as awesome as it could be – make sure every riff, every note, every drumbeat was in the perfect spot.” In the end, Mastodon crafted an album that’s 27 In addition to challenging instrumental passages, Blood Mountain features vocals that range from melodic conversations to raging diatribes. “We’re all smart enough to know that we don’t have to scream our brains out every second for the whole album,” Sanders explains. “That’s just not where we want to go as we expand and further our catalog of music. Overall, there was just more room and more potential for various vocal sounds on this album. And we’re not at all apprehensive about doing it because we don’t feel like we’re cheesing out or doing anything wrong.” With the release of Blood Mountain, Mastodon have reached the top of a peak, from which they can see other, even higher mountains before them. And that’s where they’re headed next. Regardless of how many cover stories or awards they receive, Mastodon are driven by the need to ascend the mountain, implant the skull and ascend to the next level of evolution. It’s not that they’re unappreciative of the accolades, they’re just too busy focusing on the next project to stop what they’re doing. “When we started, we never imagined getting to where we are today,” Sanders says “We’re so grateful and we appreciate everything that’s been said about us. This has all been unreal. I never thought we’d do major tour support for Iron Maiden in Europe or be on a major label or be on our fourth tour with Slayer, or be ranked as having one of the Top 10 albums of the year in any magazine. It’s all been part of this crazy journey that we’ve lived, and we’ll keep rolling forward. We feel like we’ve still got so far left to go.” MUSIC CHANNEL 14 CHANNEL 12 Mandarin Melodies Mundo Latino This programme presents an array of contemporary popular Mandarin songs.

Mit New Technologies/ Jonathan Mann CNN’s Jonathan Mann visits two remarkable inventors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Both of them are overcoming physical disabilities in unique ways. - Elizabeth Goldring: A blind poet at MIT has developed an inexpensive way for people with impaired vision to actually see. Goldring has found inspiration in working on her “seeing machine” for ten years. The device projects an image directly onto a person’s retina, allowing that person to actually “see” objects such as faces and the layout of unfamiliar buildings. - Hugh Herr: An assistant professor at MIT has a vested interest in the future of prosthetics. Hugh Herr is a double-amputee. He and his team are working to make prosthetics more ‘human’. The prosthetics will not only be able to move like real limbs, but also feel sensations like them. Carbon Neutral/ Daryl Hannah Climate Change has become one of the hottest topics of discussion in recent months. Scientific reports have suggested more strongly than ever that global warming exists – and that the causes are manmade. A greater emphasis is being placed on renewable technologies like wind and solar power. There are also ways for individuals to offset their ‘carbon footprint’. We asked TV Programming Channels actress and environmentalist Daryl Hannah to explain how it works.

Airbus A340 Entertainment 45 Biography One of the most outspoken, creative singer/songwriters of our time returns with her ninth studio album “American Doll Posse” and she’s brought company. “American Doll Posse” features Tori Amos in a way we’ve never heard her: as five distinct characters who combine to make a complete woman. After centuries of being dismembered, literally and figuratively, by the ruling patriarchy the feminine essence has reassembled to take back the power. In addition to Amos, the quartet creates a compelling portrait of the role of women today expressed through one of Amos’s most wide ranging albums, both thematically and musically. Even Amos was a little undone when the girls started showing up all at once. As usual, the songs began pouring from her now famous Bösendorfer piano which, like a compact you use for all occasions, goes everywhere she does. But this time, something was different: “When the songs come through, I can almost hear them complete,” she says. ‘Normally, they work within a frame. What I began to notice with this, which really got me spinning, was that there were extremes.” Those extremes were different voices, different archetypes, all of which were ready to emerge distinct and intact. Each character came with her own look and fashion sensibility, and each had something very important to say about her role in a patriarchal world and the shackles that had been placed upon her by not allowing her to show all facets of her true self. Isabel (HisTORIcal), a photographer, is a reflection of Artemis and is the most outwardly political of the bunch. She opens the album with “Yo George,” a shout-out to our commander in chief, questioning what horribly dark road he and his crooked cronies have led us down, and closes the CD with the anti-war anthem, “Dark Side of the Sun.” Then there’s Clyde (CliTORIdes), who draws from Persephone. She wears her emotional wounds on her sleeve, but remains idealistic. “She is looking at the effects of not being a whole person. She is trying to figure out what she believes in and she is dealing with having been disappointed in her life,” Amos says. Clyde is a little girl lost on the string-laden, gorgeous “Girl Disappearing” and on the heartfelt ballad “Roosterspur Bridge.” Pip (ExpiraTORIal), who represents Athena, swaggers her way through the driving “Teen- Tori Amos age Hustling” and duets with Santa on the rollicking “Body and Soul.” “Pip, being the warrior that she is, does confront issues and sometimes it’s explosive, but I really love her energy and her casual approach to rubber,” Amos says. Santa (SanaTORIum) relates to Aphrodite and is the sensualist of the quintet. Through songs like the shimmery pop of “Secret Spell” or the wonderfully wicked “You Can Bring Your Dog” or the delightfully retro “Programmable Soda,” “Santa is somebody who’s a girl’s girl,” Amos says. “She understands her fellow sisters and she believes that there is enough love and passion out there for everyone. But she won’t accept that there is something perverted about being very sensual and she won’t drink shame with her sensuality.” And, of course, there’s Tori (TerraTORIes), who, surprisingly, was one of the hardest characters for Amos to get her head around. “She was Demeter and Dionysus, so she was really holding and channeling the male, as well as Demeter, who was the mother, the creator of this,” Amos says. She is front and center as the M-I-L-F on “Big Wheel” and on the dreamy, Lennon-esque married with the Mick Ronson guitar inspired “Digital Ghost.” “What I ‘m trying to tell other women is they have their own version of the compartmentalized feminine which may have been repressed this in each one of them,” Amos says. “It will look different. But because it’s based on an ancient feminine personality traits, it exists in all of us and we’ve really been forced to make a 46 choice, an either/or of only one facet of the feminine.” Even for Amos, who recorded the album in her own Martian Engineering Studios in Cornwall, England there was something to be learned from these women about being one’s authentic self. “For many years I have been an image; that isn’t necessarily who I am completely,” she says “I have made certain choices and that doesn’t mean that those choices are the whole story. I think these women are showing me that I have not explored honest extensions of the self who are now as real as the redhead.” In some ways, Amos’s entire musical career has been leading up to this moment. On many of her past albums, she tackled a single theme. “I was exploring one personality at a time,” she says. “So if you look at all the records, I was exploring these character traits, these feminine personality traits, usually in a sonic narrative form. And together, they make the complete woman.” Through the coming months, each woman will have her own blog and her personality will develop as it reveals itself. “You’ll get to know the girls through the photographs, through the songs, and there needs to be writings, Amos says. “Their relationships get more complicated. I love the idea of this multimedia project being improvisational. Improv in front of a mass audience…this allows the five women to explore and develop as opposed to them being restrained and contained in a portraiture medium. This way they learn and they grow in front of everybody’s eyes.” Airbus A340 Entertainment These products are available from the aft galley between the meals on all intercontinental flights.
