Personally, I think that Tori Amos will always be eternally fantastic in ever way, shape, and form. Her emotional connection with the music and the way she lets her soul shine through her performance is absolutely breathtaking. She will forever be one of my heroes and inspirations. She fucking ROCKS.
Someone enlighten me please as I have not read up on this and don't know if this has been discussed here, but the song is just about her hating someone and being jealous of them to the extent of what the song is talking about right? Did she base this off of a real person?
@newkid22 This song is part of a trilogy about women betraying each other (Cornflake Girl, Bells for Her, and The Waitress) This song is about being two-faced. In front of the boys she's "living kindness" but when she's around other women she inspires hate, in Tori especially. She thought she was a peacemaker until she met this waitress, who is supposed to be her equal.
I do think it's lovely that she's happy with a child and married. But she really should stop getting her Husband to play guitar on her albums. It ruins things
Pardon my french, but I fucking love this girl. Cleverfool, I totally agree. This is the Tori that I fell in love with too. I mean she is still great, but I loved her more angry albums like LE, until FTCH.
She is THE girl. Seriously I've neen listening to her for 6 years now and I still listen to her every DAY...It's like a disease. But a one I don't want to get rest..
I adore this song. It's difficult to describe the impact it had on me and how simple yet powerful the lyrics are. It unsettles human emotions in a positive way.
"I believe in peace, bitch" is a line that will remain trapped in my mind for many years to come.
In my book, Tori is one of the most beautiful creatures on Earth.
me too... everytime i watch a video from a concert from the last tour.. or everytime i listen to the new songs... she just kind of... become.. "another" person.
WOW....ok....I admit, I've never even heard of Tori Amos before (just found this by accident here today)...but let me say this...shades of Led Zeppelin, for sure!
I love how she just "let's go". Let's the music and piano take over. She's an amazing artist and expressionist. Watching someone like Tori, who has such drive and is so passionate about music, is just an incredible experience. Thank you Tori.
Tori was better live in the early years..SHe had more sincerety then..Now her stage shows seem more like a routine..I would love to her her like 10 years ago..Her music was definitely on top then.
i agree with you. after pele things changed. well she got married and few year later had a kid. those are all things that can change a person. well really things changed when they released pele with remixed versions of songs just to sell more cds. i still dont own that version.
She never should have gotten married and had a kid..;-) (evidently it changes an artist..Maybe the artistic creativity loses a bit of its magic). Actually I was wondering about this not long ago (when it comes to Tori)..
You think time and energy to husband and children=less creativity? perhaps you are both deprived of the experience. Then again, perhaps you would know no better.
Why wouldn't it be? She has less time to think about art and being creative. And they say that suffering is the best source of art..Maybe she's more happy now than she were before..:)
@temporarydive I adore Tori Amos during this era, but Jesus, that's a little selfish on your part. It's like fans of Trent Reznor wishing he was back on the drugs because his artistry has suffered somewhat since The Fragile. More than anything I want Tori to be *happy*, and If having a kid and getting married are the things that bring her happiness, fulfillment and peace on Earth, so be it. It doesn't change what she has accomplished.
god people, you need to realize that the reason she changed is that SHE GOT MARRIED AND HAD A KID. you know what that means? she got happy! her negative energy that she put into songs and made them passionately creepy is gone. how dare a self/artist-respecting fan say that they wish they she never would have gotten married or had kids? that's a terrible thing to say.
@temporarydive anyone who is a TRUE Tori fan loves the fact that she got exactly what she wanted. She gave us TONS of fantastic music. It's only fair that she gets to live the rest of her dream. That baby is everything she wanted.. you can tell from some of her earlier music... So, GO MOMMY TORI!
Released versions? What was remixed, aside from BT's remix of Talula?
Personally, I think Choir Girl is every bit as good as Pele. I like Venus, but it's definitely not as good. SLG had it's moments, but ultimately I think it was just a way to get out of her contract. The album after that was ok. The last album was, IMO, awful.
I avoided the new ablum, because I was so disapointed....finally gave it a listen, and think it's her best album in almost 10 years.
Right this second I believe all that nonsense about being a conduit for music. I am a massive fan, but have found the mystical aspect hard to swallow. Seeing her live I'm thinking it could be true. Who knows? She performs her songs like no one else I have ever seen. Almost like she's making it up as she goes along (bar the basic melody/lyric). Amazing!
