I absolutely love these videos from the early Tori days! It's fun to go back and forth and see where the songs have traveled and how Tori performs them now. :) Some of them have morphed into whole new beings almost! I LOVE IT!! But there is never anything like how they were in the beginning... :)
wow what a gorgeous performance-say what you want to about her now-but this is a woman who truely knows how to connect with her own material and convey it the her audience-and "pink" what a beautiful album.............sigh
I love the line"how do you hide a 100 girls in your hair"? Her lyrics are very visual as well as the music is so very deep and thought provoking. Whimsical but at the same time timeless and beautiful.
@hippiewitch Wonderful, oh how I would love to see her just once. She has so much influence in my life. The way she speaks through her music is like a riddle, so haunting and rare.
@nottheredbaron I remember sitting in my room watching this. I had never heard of Tori Amos before. Shook me to the core and I have been a huge fan ever since. Such an amazing album and artist.
Not jogging music, folks. It just doesn't get any more intimate than this. In fact, this is one song that I've never listened to with any one else around - I just drop my head and close my eyes.
This rendition is just amazing. But then you already know that.
TORI: Because I travel a lot around the world, and I went to all sorts of places, and I ran in to different people. Borneo had something that I didn't have. It was a very free, hot, jungly place, and the people that, or a person that came from there, had something that I didn't have that I desperately wanted, which was this no rigidity. When I say 'Leave the wood outside, what, all the girls here are freezing cold, leave me with your Borneo.'" - Baltimore Sun 1994
She probably blew the audiance away with her voice, talent and looks especially concidering it was only her and the piano, and it's sounded just like the one on the CD, but I could tell it wasn't, but it was great if not better. she's the best, she deserves WAY more recognition. but she does have all of mine =)
thanx. listening to ADP soo much I decided to go back to the beginning and this helps. the past is over yet we are lucky to have th digital reminders of the 'girl with a piano thing'. better yet a 'lady with her piano' whose chess skills are just as good ;)checkmate mfkers. luv ya. from the bottom of my heart.
Unbelievable!!! This girl is just too good! Are we sure shes human?

I'm obsessed with this song at the moment. It really grabs me.
Is it just me or does she somehow manage to recreate the orchestral sound, even though there is no string section present?
