[eyesofatragedyke]

oh and they do sing about similar things too such as christianity, so its fitting they sing this song together. I LOVE IT!

I WOULD KILL TO SEE THIS CONCERT! lol my fav

[eyesofatragedyke]

Tori amos and Maynard are my very top two favorite artists. i love them both so much i wouldnt be able to decide between the two lol. True, their styles are very differnt but they are both incredibly brilliant and genius.

[hddextern]

anyway,perfect

[BoysForPele1989]

Maynard is so into it too; i love it.

[BoysForPele1989]

This is a epic and classic Tori song.

[ziek25]

First (the bad):

1) This isn't the best song by either singer

2) The recording wasn't great

3) Maynard didn't sing as much as Tori

The Great:

1) I just love this; it has nothing to do with the song just the collaboration of the two.

2) When Maynard takes that second verse he hits hard and sings great, the fans (from a Tori concert go wild).

3) I love the way it people from a Tori concert knew MJK. I mean who would have known?

People always doubt Maynards vocals, he has range!

[Lilmamawittshorties]

I love this so friggin much it's insane..gets into my veins and pulses throughout my temples during the day..

[VanityInPerson]

I'd love to see Tori and Trent together on stage. :/ But it will never happen.

[cubencis]

its a shame they didnt sing a 'good' song together

[pigeonkiller112]

what do you mean? it's a great song!

[fish014]

are u fuckin kidding me this song is sick

[kissablezipper]

MoparManiac22739 is completely correct and tori has a point.. look up ancient babylonian goddesses.. these babylonian myths are what every religion started out as.

[BoyintheMachine]

'Asherah', is the 'forbidden goddess' in the bible. She was the wife of Baal, but in time many jews 'married her to jehovah'. Most scholars believe Asherah became 'The Holy Spirit' over time. Of the divinity, only 'The Holy Spirit' is referred to in the feminine in Hebrew.

[BoyintheMachine]

Her image was, no joke, part of the temple. She was shown as a nude woman straddling the backs of two lions, with one foot on each of their backs. Scholars have since learned that the temple that we were taught about never existed. It existed, but not how they wanted us to believe. The truth was that it was riddled with pagan imagery.

[BoyintheMachine]

This should come as no shock as even the bible itself clearly reads that Solomon built a pagan temple right next door to the Temple of God and sacrificed babies to the mysterious divinity, 'Moloch'. The problem is that the guilt is cast upon Solomen's wives, even though women had no power and he was king.

[BoyintheMachine]

Should also state that the hebrews called 'The Holy Spirit', 'The Shekinah', and yes, they consider it to be the feminine side of God. The problem is that many Christians are ignorant of the origins of the religion and so wrongly believe the Holy Spirit is male.

[BoyintheMachine]

Jehovah- God the Father

The Shekinah/The Holy Spirit/"Asherah" -God the Mother

The Messiah-God the son.(child)

The true trinity: Father,Mother,Child (family unit)

[Celiecita]

"The bitch has to go" XDDD

[michandre]

i think tori has a wonderful voice... she sings beautiful

[toolchick16]

i love maynard but the bitch has to go

[silenced]

Why do you have to be so aggressive? I don't understand. If yo udon't like her ,then great! Go on disliking her, but why the need for the hostility?

[jasop]

its about Mary Magdelan

[shady220]

what is this song about

[RoninOB]

My two favorite song writers on one seat!! amazing!

[tinit]

maynard and tori RULES!!!

[MoparManiac22739]

The song really makes no sence. lol but its still good. Maynard and Tori's voices go really well in this song and Tori's piano playing is top-knotch. The video itself isn't in good quality however and the audio is alittle sketchy. Still, good song and video.

[eliezeriero]

You know what it's about? I doubt it. The song makes perfect sense if you believe what they seem to believe.

Anyway, peace.

[MoparManiac22739]

Yes, I know what it means. Its about Tori drinking tea and talking to Huhammad about how the feminine part of God had been circumsized, or destroyed if you will, in all the religions of the world, and basically how possible it is that the real God(not just in Christianity, but in religion as a whole) is a Goddess. I simply meant the lyrics are rather odd, but not that the songs meaning made no sence, though I admit that is what it sounded like and I apologie.

-Casey Cannon

[eliezeriero]

I'd say lyrics are ambigous indeed. Still, I love this performance.

[entityadrift]

Those two always reminded me of eachother when they sing. That performance was absolutely stunning.

[Souup]

Tori Amos sounds so fuckin sexy singing that song! And Maynard...mmm.. what can i say... he's "the man".

Great Video, great song!
