  • Tori and her music are beyond stunning and beautiful, I haven't yet seen anyone who sounds better live than her

  • Love Tori! One of the best true musical ARTISTS that can truly be CALLED an artist! her songs are very deep and enigmatic, and full of double meaning!

  • This song is rather thought provoking. I like the line:

    How many fates turn around in the overtime...

    Its very true, so many things change when you least expect them to and at the last minute. This world is crazy.

  • the lyric "You say you don't want it,this circus we're in,but you don't really mean it." kinda reminds Joran Van Der Sloot.

  • me of* oops

  • para mi esta es la mejor cancion de tori,la admiro es impresionante.

  • "if the divine master plan is perfection, maybe next ill give judas a try"

    just beautiful, so deep

  • this is a really good song. sounds darker than her other songs

  • a very good artist

  • A beautiful and expressive person. One of my favorite songwriters. So much better than all the watered down tripe permeating the radio waves today.

  • best video ever

  • i listened to this song on repeat after i miscarried. i still wonder where my spark is often

  • aw poor darling :(

  • its amazing how few people understand what this is about... and yet feel the need to criticize it

  • yes it is anazing that people dont know what the song is about, maybe if they lisen to it and think about it they would now it's about her miscarriage

  • shes tied up....sounds kinky to me...

  • "Amazing video. Here we have a woman in danger of being murdered by a man who has kidnapped her and locked her in the boot of his car."

    Honestly I think she just wanted to be in a blindfold with her hands tied behind her back.

  • love her music so much

  • she could have freed herself, but at times we want someone's approval to make a major decision in our lives,it becomes a need, untie me or release me from this pain i carry...,sympathy comes in.. she'll survive...

  • Tori is beautiful. I love all her songs. She gives me goosebumps. She is definately different from all the artists out there, and I love that she is herself.

  • totally

  • she's amazing,a unique bolt of lightening that sends sparks through you when her music touches your soul,and she's a survior,she's got her spark,she's here to stay.

  • Amazing video. Here we have a woman in danger of being murdered by a man who has kidnapped her and locked her in the boot of his car. But then she is saved when the car crashes and the man is knocked out, leaving her with time to escape... this is symbolic for how sometimes in life bad things that happen can actually help you out. The woman is then forced to find her "spark", otherwise known as her will to live; her animus.

  • She does find her spark when she swims through the waters while tied up; a feat that required much courage. Then when she finally finds what should be safety, in the form of two people on the road, she is let down and left to die despite her efforts. In this sense the twins in the car could represent religion and its tendency to let people down.

    When Tori miscarried, she was told it was OK because the angels were with her. The twins in the car represent the angels, and Tori's anger at them.

  • I think the twins actually represent the pagan ideal of duality of nature. Aire signs represent this ideal. IT is a visual aspect of balance. I would think in this case it would be doing what is right for yourself and others. Although she has found her spark of courage to pursevere on, the girls in the car haven't and they turn a blind eye to someone else's struggle.

  • such a great video clip

  • TORI AMOS is the greatest i love her shes perfect with that voice & that look im in love

  • I love this song, and the video is great. It got stuck on my head since I first watched it. It impressed me very much when I was younger.

  • that girl was a 'mystery'..back then!and this was the sad soundtrack...

  • Awesome song and video!!

  • i hate those bastarding twins!

  • i agree they just left her there

  • I Love Tori's Music Too!!!! :D

  • OMG those blond girls are fricken mean

  • Haha. They're actually twins, a boy and a girl. :o I had no idea one was a boy, but...yeah, cruel, you know??

    ~*Janelle~*

  • w-w-wwait... one was a boy?

  • great song and video!

  • i like tori she is great but did u know som1 made a video of another 1 of her songs with this video the song is called dragon

  • ass,,whole wake up trey

  • Clearly Tori is a New School Witch, and that's why I like her!

  • you think so . she clearly has a deep understanding of emotion . And in this video - she shows us how we are so afraid to untie ourselves from our chains - and that would be the "right thing you 'd think.

  • She presents the complex questions . HOnest and raw. SHe even shows truth. I could def. write an easy. I NEVER thought i'd really get what she was saying a few years back.. i only knew Tori was on to something. And now i think i might be listening and catching on to some of her songs. I'm happy you can appreciate her in any case.

  • hell, you can enjoy it even when you don't know what it's about.

  • XXSOLOCASTXX, how can you see she's more into sound than the meaning?

    This song is about a child she miscarried and it affected her gravely.

    You can't get much more meaning than that...

  • this video and song is worth better comments than what is being discussed

  • the passion=tori...

  • one of the best music videos ever.

    there's just no better way to visually describe spontaneous abortion.

  • I love this song and video-even 10 years later! Timelessly haunting...

  • I have this sheet music

  • una de las mejores canciones de Tori Amos.

  • My sister-in-law will have a child and I will not. To all people who cannot have children, I feel your pain.

  • @netminderxp

    Ive sayd many a times,i dont have problems with christians,i like/understand nature..I wont find Jezus,but i might find some peace one day.

    I dont believe in god,i do believe in nature,and yes,I also eat animals and burn wood to keep warm.

  • Man what is it with this girl and ice cream?

  • "From The Choirgirl Hotel".

    The entire LP is a gem. Helps me heal from Christianity.

  • While Christianity is filled with hypocrites, it's genuine message is positive. One has to discover Jesus by themselves and it doesn't work when somebody forces that on you. Christianity doesn't force anything, people do. The Holy Spirit is a comforter.

  • And I'm not implying that this song is devoid of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will permeate everything until the whole planet loses faith and the rapture will happen.

  • First part of your post is pretty good but I could really strangle you to death with a plastic bag for the last one. "The rapture will happen" Yeah sure, and then Jesus comes, judges over all of us and most of us go to hell. Bla, Bla, Bla.

  • If the whole world would embrace love instead of fear we wouldnt need any laws. And now dont say that its human nature to be greedy or jealous. These factors are here because of this piece of shit system we call society.

  • Your answer is surprising. I myself am like a spiritual hippy. I think Christianity contains a lot of valuable lessons. But for the most part (i.e. other than the fundamental commands like blasphemy and murder) I don't really follow the Mosaic law. I do believe in sin, but I will commit a lot of minor sins without thinking much about it like listening to bands like Slipknot and Marilyn Manson.

  • He, sorry then, guess we both just didnt quite get what the other one was saying ;)

    Anyways, the strangeling thing was a metaphor, so dont get me wrong. I just thought you were one of these mentally disabled hardcore Christians <;

  • @Darkslide666

    That utopia doesnt exist..There will always be people that want to fight you,even if you dont have anything to give.'Thats why we need laws.

    It isnt human nature to be greedy or jealous,its human nature to take what you want if you're stronger then the other.

  • With that in mind how do you explain the tribes that live deep in the jungle? They dont know greed. They know hate, yeah. But thats about it.

  • how silly a concept to say that another human doesn't know greed.

  • umm... for my religion, there isnt really any sin and we arnt shriveled up and dead... the closest thing we have to sinning is being disloyal, cowardly and not being joyful... but then again since our gods are our kin we dont become slaves to them and beg for everything instead of working for it...

  • Our unique lil Killer Tori. Another great poet of rock.Hardcore. Gotta love her.

  • Dziękuję Ci Tori za tę piosenkę, ślę ją i do mojego Dawidka(*)

  • wow, after all this time ive never actually seen the video to spark.. its amazing!

  • i've been listenin to her since i was 6! About 13 years now.

  • me too!

  • she is an amazing artist. Love her music

  • hey guys without tori amos there would be no evanescence. amy lee herself said she was heavily influenced by her. it is obvious in her music so calm down and enjoy the song. by the way this is the first tori song i ever heard and i instantly feel in love i still love it today.

  • I CANT BELIEVE IT!

    THIS WAS ALSO MY FIRST TORI SONG, although i first heard it in 2002!!!

    i lost so many years listening to so many bullshit, but when tori appeared my life changed!

  • REALY? I didn't know this!

    That's the only Tori-song i know so far, but i love this one. I stil prefer evanescence, but I can't deny the fact that this is one of the most emotional songs I've ever heard. Thanks for that piece of information^^

    PS: Red hair = cool

  • I love her voice... She has awsome voice... She is awsome!

  • Tori is awesome.

  • "if the divine masters hand is perfection, maybe next I'll give Judas a try" God, i forgot that I loved her when I was young. She had some great lines.

  • This video premiering on MTV in 1998 is how I came to LOVE her!!

  • I think it's tasteful that we don't see the identity of the male pursuer.

    A faceless danger is much more captivating and alarming.

    Beautiful song and representation <3

  • stupenda... fantastica.... unica come sempre.... nessuno è come lei...

  • Spark is definetly my fave song by Tpri Amos, From the Choirgirl Hotel is my fave album.

  • I remember seeing this video for the 1st time on MTV and being like "Who is this woman!" Every Sunday at my Grandma's after dinner I'd wait all day for them to play this vid. I also love Professional Widow, Caught A Lite Sneeze and Hey Jupiter.

  • It's the first time ive heard anything of that woman, but she's good looking and I'm starting to seriously LUV this song.

  • I also find it really cool that she can express her feelings in her Art. Just like Amy Lee. (for those who don't know, she wrote 2 song for her dead lil sister)

  • wow. if there is justice in the world nobody will ever be allowed again to campare an artist like tori amos to a pathetic hack like amy lee. this actually offends me

  • Why are you trying to start a fight now? If u don't like Evanescence, just don't listen to it. Amy isn't pathetic, she rulz. And i'm not saying that this song (the one in the video) is Bad. I actualy like it.

  • Id hit it so hard that if youd manage to pull it out youd be the king of camelot.

  • Quite often the most terrible of occurences can create the most beautiful songs. I remember seeing an interview where Tori was asked about the terrible things in her life that she'd written songs about. She said that it wasn't a simple case of 'venting' or a way of coping. But if something destructive happens to you in life, the best thing you can do is turn it around into something creative. Taking something bad and making it positive.

  • musician

  • Mi piace particolarmente questo brano di Tori Amos.

  • I was already pretty f***** when it was the era of this song. But then came along Marilyn Manson and it went from worse to worst. Not comparing her to him, I just identify with her and I was indentifying with him when he came along a year later with MA.

  • dont worry tori

    i'll save you:)

  • how when shes safely held close to my chest

  • Those girls probably left her cause well, seriously,they didn't know who she was. After all, she COULD have been a creep or something like that.

  • There are many references to her miscarriage in this song.

  • tori is one of those few artists that make you think when you watch their videos. i think it's awesome!! too bad we don't have much of these kind of videos these days.

  • Thank you for bringing this up...This has been on my mind 4ever...there are not many artists that make you think the way Tori does...Thank you for speaking truth!

  • ur welcome!!  i jus love videos that are artistic, cryptic, yet creative at the same time!! it makes it worth while watching the videos.

  • This video is amazing. Strange and fascinating. The atmosphere of mystery makes me thrill. And that nearly magic forest... Unbelieveable.

  • This is one of my favorite Tori videos

  • Amo a Tori. Para mí es la mejor artista de las últimas dos décadas. Toca el piano como ninguna y hace discos muchísimos más parejos que los de otras artistas. Es realmente única.

  • My favorite Tori video by far. It almost makes me cry.

  • Why would those girls just leave her? Seriously WTF?

  • 2:43-47

    <3

  • love her songs and her twisted videos

  • what a song ! makes me dream awake

  • BEAUTIFUL SONG!

  • Тори как всегда на высоте! Потрясающая, живая и настоящая! Прекрасное видео!

  • да, Прекрасное видео и она Прекрасноя!

  • She's so beautiful in this video...This is one of her best songs, I think...And it was the soundtrack to a personal loss two years ago, when I did find out that...nobody can *truly* understand how one's heart can hurt.

  • Strange what love does...

  • This album is just amazing.. It helped me to carry on in one the saddest years in my life. This song is about lost.

  • this is definately one of my faves, this album is actually my favourite, I still havent seen her live, I wish she'd come to NZ

  • I agree it's about her loss, but I think the video symbolizes that noone really, truly cares about anyone else's tragedy. I believe that in itself is the biggest loss.

  • about what is it about?

  • it's about her miscarriage. :(

  • this song is so sad :(

  • AWESOME SONG!!!

  • I love keltic women..Isnt it ironic that in the end of the vid the blondes think,'we just dont care'.

  • Somebody needs to kick those blondes in the head...

  • This song is my definition of 'perfect'.

    Tori is my definition of absolutely stunningly perfect. :')

  • I just adore her music..so heart

  • this is a great song!!

  • One of my favorite Tori songs and videos aside from the songs and videos off the first album.This song is so sad,foreboding and triumphant! I always loved it! I've seen her 5 or 6 times in concert and actually met her in 1992 when she was still relatively unknown! She sure has come a long way. I am glad she finally had a child and has a successful career, because she definitely paid her dues! Long live Tori!

  • Damn, can a sista get a pair of scissors?!

    Joking aside, this is one of the best Tori Amos tracks AND videos ever made!

  • EVIL BLOND BITCHES!!!

  • hahah

  • I really liked the idea of this video. Song is great of cause as every single one of Tori's creations.

  • gun control my ass

  • Anybody else notice the name carved on the tree? Interpretations, anybody?

  • 'Skeeter' was the nickname she gave to her unborn baby, before she miscarried. she explained it on the video collection Fade To Red.

  • Ah, thank you.

  • three songs where shes not the victim...happy phantom, sorta fairytale god..bouncing off clouds.sleeps with butterflies??

  • YEAAAAAAH !!!

  • I love this video!!!

  • beautiful song always loved Tori Amos and her message of support to women. I find this video very interesting if you watch it either before or after Rammstein's "DU HAST" kinda makes for a strange tale in a way.... maybe ive just been watching videos to much today to...

  • this and jackies strength have sutch emotion in them

    there amazing songs

  • My fav song of all time!

  • great..relevant song ;)

  • Where about's in Dartmoor England was this video filmed?

    ppl could learn a hell of alot from tori she takes the time out to explain things properly to me she seems to know alot more about the world than for average person i guess that coz she's of cherakee decent.

  • Guuuuut =)

  • Una delle più belle canzoni di Tori

  • tori at her prettiest in a good while :)

  • dont worry tori, i'll save you!!!

    this is my fav vid ever by tori, j'adore ca!!

  • i think i took for granted the magnificence of this song.

  • My favorite video of all time.

  • One of her best songs & videos. I just finished up playing a new arrangement of this song on piano/keyboard, so if there are any Spark fans out there, feel free to click on my user name. This is my favorite Tori song.

  • i loveee tori amos her songs are like awsome. my choir sang her song winter last year i lovee her.

  • I love this song

    I remeber when they used to play this on mtv back in 97 or 98 whenever it was

  • What breath-taking beauty she is

  • Пьяно!=)

  • I've had this song stuck in my head for days now. I had to come and watch the video yet again. Love this song!

  • this is the song that "sparked" my interest in tori. i think it's absolutely beautiful. one of my favorite songs ever.

  • thissong is about the baby she lost - she had a misscarriage, I had a 'miscarriage' after some bitch deliverately smashed into me - she was in a car and I lost my 3 month old baby, unfortunately I lived

  • i absolutely love tori amos. she is so amazing.

    Tori and Spark.

  • gosh, i'm in love with this song...

  • Adoro questa canzone, e apprezzo molto l'intensità del video.

  • i pretty much just checked her songs today

    and i dont see how regina spektor sounds anything like this tori person i think Regina spektor is a little bit better .......i was just making a comment about my opinion no need to argue everyone has their own music person they like.Tori is really good though

  • well, I'm not a lesbian, but I love this woman...this particular video is just great, one of my favourites...I bought this week "The Beekeeper"-album and now "Parasol" is getting its way to my top 10 Tori songs...brilliant woman!

  • This is one of my favorite songs ever.

  • I'm not addicted to nicotine patches..I'm addicted to this fucking wonderful song!

  • First time I ever heard Tori! I was to young understand the impact that people said she had on me! I could not stand her! My first boyfriend listened to her all the time! It took me my own break up, Date rape, and drug addiction to realize What she ment to me!

    Shes not just a singer! but a storyteller aswell! And What she says can mean different things for different people! She my Angel! shes saved me many time! Thanks Tori!
