New Album News! (Thursday 10th April 2003)

Toby on the Chat Room... Toby will be appearing on Channel seven's "The Chatroom" tonight at 9.30pm AEDST.
I'll let you know if anything interesting unfolds.
----------------------------------------
21/02/03
Cabaret in Perth... That's right - you heard me - Cabaret is heading to Perth once the Brisbane season is done. Only problem is for you avid Human Nature fans, it doesn't seem like Toby will be continuing taking on the role to the west of our fair nation however no replacement has yet been announced.
Tickets go on sale Monday the 24th of February. Cabaret opens at the Burswood Theatre on Tuesday the 6th of May.
Tickets go on sale Monday the 24th of February.

Toby on Rove... Sorry - it's a bit late notice but Toby appeared on Saturday Morning Rove yesterday to promote Cabaret in Brisbane. He only spoke briefly discussing his role in Cabaret and the fact that he has signed on for 6 weeks of performance. No other news at this time other than the fact that the person who was posting innapropriate material on the forum is back and I again suggest that minors avoid this board until it has cleared up.
----------------------------------------
03/02/03
Cabaret in Brisbane... Just a quick note to let you know that the cast list for the Brisbane leg of the Cabaret show has been released on the Cabaret Website.
It lists Toby again to play the part of the Emcee so if you live over there - why not have a look. I didn't see it myself but I've only heard good things about it.
Check the official site or Nancy's site Toblerone
----------------------------------------
01/02/03
People Get Ready... A list of the top 100 songs off all time was released in the 'Sun Herald' this morning (based on songwriting quality) and 'People Get Ready' was voted number 11. Human Nature's version is the best I've heard and it's pretty cool that our boys have the skill and talent to cover such a brilliant song. It's good to see it in there because I agree that it truly is one of the best songs ever written.
----------------------------------------
24/01/03
A Warning to minors...I pride myself on the fact that this site is suitable for all ages. I do regret however that this is not the case for all Human Nature websites and feel that I should inform all minors and their parents that there have currently been some very innapropriate, harrassing and what may be considered pornographic material posted on the forum at http://www.humannature.tv The site is usually a good place for Human Nature fans to meet and chat but the posts there lately have changed this friendly environment to something that should not be available to minors. I have e-mailed Sony about this and will let you know how it turns out. If you wish to comment to Sonymusic yourself contact me at human_naturegirl@yahoo.com.au and I will happily give you the details. Thankyou

Happy Birthday to...A big Happy birthday to Mike for tomorrow! Wow - 26...we remember when you were young! And you don't look a bit older *grins*
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
12/01/03
About the DVD...There have been several complaints about the fact that the 'Here and Now' DVD pauses midway through the 'Wishes' film clip. Please note that this is NOT a fault. This DVD is simply experiencing a 'layer change'.
Because most DVD's have two layers of information there is a point during the disc at which the laser will need to re-focus between the layers. Depending on the player and the authoring of the DVD, this can make the picture and sound pause for a second before the procedure is complete.
There is nothing wrong with your player or with the DVD so don't be worried.
On another point, when Human Nature did a duet for Olivia Newton John's (2) album called "Love You Crazy" they were part of a documentary called "The making of '2'. This was shown on foxtel I believe. For those of you who (like myself) don't have access to this, you can check it out here.
Also, just a reminder to those who haven't signed the Human Nature Fanbook hurry up and get in there - we want your post!
I'm also putting up lyrics for Sweet Child O' Mine now so you can have a look. The song is a fantastic demonstration of the Nature's musical abilities (the intro is fantastic) and I recommend that if you haven't heard it - you take a look. The song can be found on "Triple M's Musical Challenge 3 - Third time Lucky" as track 16 on the first CD. It's a brilliant record as it is - Human Nature are just a fantastic bonus. Have a look!
----------------------------------------
7/01/03
It's ready! That's
right - the Human
Nature Online Fanbook
is now ready for your input. We've had quite a few entries so far so make
your mark in something huge. Rach and I have put a lot of effort into it
because we know it's something that both the fans and Human Nature themselves
can enjoy. If you've got something to say or simply want the boys to
remember that 'special thumbs-up' they gave you at the last concert - this is
the place for you! Check it out - you won't be dissapointed.
Sorry - no updates on this site at the moment - I've been hard at work on the
fanbook, however in Nature News, sightings by fans have suggested that Phil has
shaved off his infamous goatee and gone blond. *shock*
I plan to put some more work into this site as soon as possible including a
complete rework of the lyrics section to provide you with more detail.
Stay tuned!

Happy New Year!

The DVD is out! You can now get yourself a
copy and let me tell you, you won't be disappointed. It's thirty dollars
well spent. It has every video clip to date as well as the entire here and
now concert (with a commentary) also featurettes on each album. Also good
for a laugh is the 'outback instore'. I won't tell you any more but I
assure you that you'll enjoy it. For those of you who haven't yet been
able to get your hands on a copy, try
HMV and
Sanity if these places don't have it they
will be more than happy to order it in for you.
As for
performances, Cabaret is still in Melbourne so check it out if you're in the
area. The boys are not appearing anywhere on New
Years Eve.
Lyrics and a sound-byte for Sweet
Child O' Mine coming
soon.
I must apologise for the
lack of updates but it is a busy time of year as I'm sure you can understand and
I have also been hard at work on a special something for Human Nature AND their
fans with the webmaster of
Shrine
of Nature
Rach. Stay tuned for
more information!

The Human Nature DVD has
faced yet another delay. I won't announce a date until I have one which is
more certain as currently three different sources have three different
dates. I'll keep you posted. Mike and Phil appeared on 'Cheez
TV' this morning to promote the Spirit
of Christmas album on which they perform 'Mary's
Boy Child'. Lyrics to come.
The boys can also currently be found on Triple M's
'Musical Challenge Three -
Third Time Lucky'. They perform 'Sweet
Child O'Mine'. Lyrics and a sound bite
to come. According to 'Sain' magazine, we can expect a fifth album some
time after February 17, 2003. Toby is still working on
Cabaret in Melbourne however it seems that
he will not be
taking the show to Brisbane as
he is not listed in the cast. Therefore we can hope that he will be able to join
the other three for promotion of the DVD
and forthcoming album next year at Melbourne's conclusion.
Phil, Andrew and Michael are currently hard at work on writing for the fifth
album. Please stay tuned for more DVD updates. Or you can check
regularly yourself at the following websites.

More updates. As you can see
the frames have now been changed. You can select your favourite member,
keep the usual or have this months 'fun' frame. I will continue to change
this. A Christmas frame is currently in the works and will be available in
December. It's been a gloomy day here in Sydney and thus I have been
updating all day. Also available now is the tracklisting for the Here and
Now DVD (see below), the lyrics
and a sample of 'Love You Crazy' from Olivia's '2' album and as you can
see above - I have placed a count-down for the release of the DVD. It
looks great - trust me. Here's the listing I obtained from the Sanity

Told you I'd get straight back into
it.
Dr Phil has been
edited. He now has the ability to say a whole lot more! Try him out and
see. I've also uploaded THE most annoying
human nature page in the known
universe - try it out - send it on. It's great fun! You can now cyber-marry
your favourite member of the nature. Hell! Why not all four? I've
created a cyber chapel here.
I'm also currently working on new frames. It shouldn't be too long before
they're up. Visit back soon!
----------------------------------------
12/11/02
The beginning of my update-age.
Basically all I've done at the moment is added a new interactive section called
Ask Dr Phil. It's kind of a
parody of the Dr Phil show that's on channel 9. You can ask him anything
that requires a yes or no answer and he'll tell you what he thinks. Keep
checking back because there will be more updates very soon!
The release date of the Human Nature DVD has been pushed back to the 2nd December according to the Official Human Nature Site
Thanks

Well I've been a while in updating
haven't I? Unfortunately I don't really have anything to say as the site
goes. I've been doing my HSC and it's left no time for updating though I
promise I will get on it as soon as the exams are over - I'm just too busy at
the moment. For those who give a damn about how my exams are going - so
far I think I'm doing quite well. It'll be over on Friday though -
relaxation here I come!
As for the nature boys -
they've been pretty busy since I last updated. Toby is still kicking butt
at Cabaret and has all the critics raving. Mike and Andrew are currently
writing for the new album which we can't wait to get our hot little hands on and
Phil's popping up all over the place doing tribute performances. The guys
have recorded a duet with Olivia Newton-John called 'Loving You Crazy'.
It's a ballad *cheers* and it's apparently fantastic - though I haven't heard it
in full yet =( You can pick it up if you want on Olivia Newton-John's
album '2'.
The DVD release date has also been announced and according to the Sanity
site it should be available for
purchase on the 15th November so keep an eye out. I'll post the 'Loving
You Crazy' lyrics as soon as possible. I have big ideas for what's to come
at this site so if you visit back soon you'll hopefully be happily surprised.
Also - if you're in a sweep for the cup today - best of luck!

New layout! Again! Do you like
it? I think it's great. See what great stuff you can do when you're
bored?! I think I'll leave it like this for a while. I love the
picture on the left. It's one of my faves.
Not only is there new stuff on this site. But there have been updates at
the official http://www.humannature.com.au
site. The following information was posted there:
The rumour which said that HN have just put the finishing touches to a song which
should be released this side of Christmas were true. The famous Aussie
singer with which the duet was recorded is Olivia Newton-John. Can't wait
to check it out!
After the success of his participation in the David Bowie tribute at The
Basement, Phil is at it again. This time he is performing in a Frank
Sinatra tribute on the 18th of October - again at the basement. For more
details see the
Official Human Nature website.
The ULTIMATE Human Nature
Quiz is now over. The answers can be found
here. The winner of the
competition was Nancy on a score of 35 out of 40. Well done! For
those of you who wish to know your scores - I will e-mail you your results as
soon as possible. I apologise for the lateness but it took some time to
score all the quizzes. It's not like I'm getting paid for it or anything
=P
There are also two new questions in the HNFAQ
"When you're cold, when you're down and lonely,
deep in need of a helping hand, come to me, let me take your hand in mine, we
can fly away"

Newness! I (through the help of Rach- thanks) found these cute
little blobs which work as
adoptions - that is - online pets - inspired I modified the little guys to have
the personalities of our favourite four - the nature. There's a blob with
characteristics of each of the guys so feel free to adopt 1, 2, 3 or even all of
the guys for your site. Unfortunately - as this site runs on a free server
- you can't link directly back to the site - you have to save them to you server
or hard drive if you really love them. If anyone is willing to provide a
free server for my little guys I'd greatly appreciate it.

your own, know you'll never be alone, the memories we made, time can never take

Thanks for the comments on the new look - I'm glad you like it!
Also, despite the fact that many people have now tried to
win the CD singles in the ultimate
quiz, Nancy remains in the lead.
Don't forget to add yourself to the fanfile
A new
article
is up - actually I've transcribed the tour
2000 program -
check it out now!
I am currently transcribing the 2002 program. I do not however, have the
1997 program - so if anyone could help me out with photo-copies, transcribes or
a copy of the actual program itself - I am willing to negotiate something.
I am also after a pick of Mike on the 'actual' red stool from when they
were performing as the 4trax in talent quests etc.
If anyone can help me out it in either of these fields - it would be VERY much
appreciated.
The lyrics for I
Wish, You're
the Voice and Who's
Lovin' You are
all now available on the Lyrics Page.
Also a great new little section called - Kiss
Andy! -
hey - it's a lot of fun - and not the usual kissing script - have a go!

Here I go again.
I got bored with the old frames look and decided it was time for something a
little fresher. I hope you like it. I'm constantly looking for new
ideas - so if you have one - or if you love the new look - or if you hate it -
send your comments here!
The fanfile
has been updated. So far it has only 10 members - I know there's
more of you out there! Come on - it'll only take a couple of minutes of
your time! To all those Queenslanders - I'm sorry I neglected your
state on the list *gets on knees* - it's there now! It was late - I was
tired - I didn't know what I was doing! Can you ever forgive me?! Join
now!
The Lyrical
Stuff-ups page is now working
properly - something happened in the upload of that page and it failed to work -
sorry for any inconvenience.
The Trivia
page is working - seems the link was broken earlier - sorry for any
inconvenience caused.
There's a new page under construction (it's kinda mean) called Why
it rocks to be an HN fan.
Currently there are only a couple of submissions. Check it out and tell me
what you think!
So far in the
Ultimate quiz, Nancy
is holding the highest score with 35 out of 40.
Personal Scores will be e-mailed once the competition is over. (I don't
want any cheating now!) Good Luck!

Happy Birthday to me!
Happy Birthday to me! Ok, not to me (the webmaster of this site) But to
Natural Talent itself. This site turned one today. Which I think is
quite an achievement. From what it was a tiny page with a few lyrics and a
couple of articles, no frames and no games...this site has progressed into
something that has made me very proud. Hopefully there's still plenty of
room to grow however.
As part of the birthday celebrations, I have created a massive general
knowledge quiz. There is a prize (2 awesome singles that human nature have
released - I'm not telling which though I'll just tell you that they're both
awesome and both pre 2000 - collectors items I'd say). Anyway, the quiz
can be found here.
By filling out the answers and clicking the submit button, you can be in the
running. The prize will be awarded to the person who gets the most answers
correct. If there is more than one person with the same amount of answers
correct, tie breaker questions will be set. The winner will receive an
award to place on their site and also will have the singles sent to them in the
mail at no cost.
There's also other new stuff as part of the
celebrations, including an updated fanfile (add
yourself today),
more articles and the second episode of the 'Adventures
Of Phantom Phil'
saga has been posted! Stay tuned for more soon!

Wow! *takes a deep breath*. It may not seem too much to you, but
this site has just undergone MAJOR reconstruction. New background,
scrollbar, pictures, new interactive sections, a much easier to navigate layout.
I hope you find it better than the old Natural Talent because I certainly do.
There's new articles, a new quiz, new questions on the HNFAQ, a useless trivia
section, a fanzone, a gallery, the lyrics section has undergone a complete
reconstruction. You can now listen to a 10-15 second segment of every
Human Nature song I own. You can also see the lyrics for these and find
out the year they were released/performed.
I do hope you enjoy the new look.
Don't forget you can always send me your feedback on what you think of the new
look here!
You can also now search this
site to find exactly what you're looking for if you happen to be in a hurry or
just looking for something specific. Regular visitors will notice that the
caption and remind me games are no longer run at this site. This is due to
a lack of contribution from fans. I apologise for any inconvenience.
Don't forget to add your name to the Natural
Talent fan-listing!

you're not in love, how does it feel when nobody wants it?"

1/8/02
I apologise for the lack of update, but do ensure that this site is currently
undergoing major construction. It's a lot of work but should (hopefully)
be finished by next week. I hope you'll appreciate the new look. If
you have any ideas, submissions or suggestions for the updated Natural Talent,
I'm happy to accept them here
