Tori Amos - Professional Widow (Original Version)

[tapirus1]

Hm, never actually heard this one before, only Armand Van Helden's remix. I don't think it's particulary good, even with the interesting harpsichord riff. Sounds mostly like someone desperately trying to sound like Kate Bush and not quite succeeding =)

[Diddauberalles]

Have always loathed Courtney fucking Love -whom inspired this little hate anthem:) Love to all Toriphiles♥

This was no.1 the day I was born!

[santisvander]

@Rach2kaiii9 LOL I came here for the same

[Rach2kaiii9]

@santisvander When were you born?!

[santisvander]

@Rach2kaiii9 17 of January of 1997 :)

[Rach2kaiii9]

@santisvander I was born the 14th!

[jamas12008]

She is awesome!

[joanofarcenciel]

i guess the harpsichord in this song is what reminds me of emilie autumn's music.

[SteevDragon67]

A dirty song with a harpsichord! Love it! She should have won some sort of award for this!

[MrXevier]

She really sucked the juice out of that harpsichord in this album.

I wish I was a harpsichord :p

[dialectical44]

This is shite. This made number one in UK when Caught a Light Sneeze and Hey Jupiter didn't??/ Go figure

[sickofwaitingtables]

@dialectical44 No, Armand Van Helden's remix of this song was number one, not the original.

[bacraman]

@sickofwaitingtables no this version was number one 18th jan 1997 for one week only, beat to number one by your woman by white town

[Onafets8791]

this is REALLY shit!

[Sfacteria]

@Onafets8791 you must be deaf O.O

[Breniznit]

dang, what is her vocal range?

[fingerless456]

runnin in a familyyyyyyyyyyyyyeah.

[sickofwaitingtables]

@fingerless456 You're welcome :)

[gr8pillock]

This is my mood, perfectly. Seriously... Give me peace, love, and a... ;)

[aikohualda]

STARFUCKER!!!!

[dannylmeats]

Armand Van Helden is a genius for spotting a decent track in this

[Cazxiro]

@dannylmeats I think he sorta ruined it tbh.

[PILINDEORO]

i prefer da remix

[khaenos]

This makes sense! The remix, which i thought it was the original doesn't make any. It sounds (in the remix) like she's saying "·she's gotta be a gay" and things like that...so glad I found the original because it's way better! The remix is only beat beat but doesn't have essence at all.

[GreyGooseGal]

This song IS BAD ASS

[MrXevier]

@GreyGooseGal

This woman is.

[shahafsagi]

she sounds like kate bush in the chorus =]

[cornflakegirl86]

Such a dirty song

[Cesar2005]

this is even better than NG Resonance :) :)

[Cazxiro]

OMG This version is awesome. It's not on iTunes though. :(

[churchofvalo]

@Cazxiro Weird I would think it would be since its on that album

[SapphireJesse08]

@churchofvalo iTunes has Pele all screwed up. They have the tracklisting of the third re-release, so there's no Voodoo, and they messed up and just have the Armand Van Helden remix on the album twice. Furthermore, the original Professional Widow CAN be found on iTunes, but it's on Hey Jupiter, incorrectly labeled as the Merry Widow version, which you have to go over to A Piano to get. And on that note, the Dakota Version of Hey Jupiter isn't on the EP either, it's also on A Piano. Craziness.

[SapphireJesse08]

@Cazxiro It's on the Hey Jupiter EP, incorrectly labeled as the Merry Widow version (also the original version of Hey Jupiter is on there as well, incorrectly labeled as the Dakota version). That EP is SUPPOSED to have the Dakota and Merry Widow versions of the songs, but iTunes has a lot of the Pele era tracklistings messed up. Incidentally, the Dakota and Merry Widow versions CAN be found on A Piano: The Collection on iTunes. Hope this helps :D

[Cazxiro]

@SapphireJesse08 Really? :D Thanks for the tip! Happy Thanksgiving! :D

[NicoleIsTeamEdward]

So glad you posted!  The original is the best version of this song! :)

[theywarnedus]

she makes a piano like a rocking fukin guitar...damn she rocks

[datura1983]

[truetrinzic]
