BPK - Song Hunting Contest: Boys for Pele (Tori Amos)

[AyuStories]

im disappointed that i watched it through but you barely gave any time for Hey Jupiter, what you did was gorgeous but I would have loved to listen to more of the song especially a modified version, great job though

[wbarreguy]

@AyuStories Appreciate the feedback. I will play Hey Jupiter one day as a stand alone song.

[AyuStories]

OH MY GOD WHAT KIND OF GOD ARE YOU

[wbarreguy]

@AyuStories Thank you, you are very kind.

Damn good job! You use tablature or figure by ear?(supposing Tori sells tablature) Now i'm off to see if you make your OWN music!

[TheFluffyLemon]

WHAT!? Putting the damage on and Beauty Queens?? Those arn't on my cd!! *throws chair* I'm sure I can find them though. Very cool contest btw. I would of totally won if it wern't for I'm a tad late and the fact I don't have those songs for some odd reason.

[wbarreguy]

@TheFluffyLemon Thank you. I know there are some alternate pressings of BfP with different versions of Talula. In the copy I have, Beauty Queen, Horses is the first track. Two songs (one arguably an intro to the other) one track.

You did "Blood Roses" well, by the way, what "time limit" on Youtube videos? I didn't know there was one.

[wbarreguy]

@daj4444 Thank you. At the time I uploaded this, there was a 10 minute limit. It's possible that they've changed it to keep up with an every changing world. :-D

[johnofjordan]

I love how feverishly you play on this. Especially Springtime.

[wbarreguy]

Thank you. I love this album.  I am glad it seems to show.

[johnofjordan]

It is by far my favourite Tori album.

[wbarreguy]

I can definitely see how this could be a fave! There are no limits on this album from what I can tell. It's so unrestrained. I love it as well, especially Horses, Caught a Lite Sneeze, and Father Lucifer. There are times where I think it might be my favorite, but my strongest affinity is for Choirgirl. Boys for Pele and Scarlet's Walk vie for #2.

[BlackAsCoals]

Same here! Choirgirl is my absolute favourite, but Pele is a (very) close number 2. As for the number 3... I guess it tends to change! But I wouldn't want to miss any of the albums, though!

This video is brilliant, by the way! I love these song hunting contests, and the text bubbles made me smile.

[wbarreguy]

Thank you! I have another one planned soon and this time I will set a start time so that everybody has a more equal chance to see it before the "snipers" show up 5 minutes after it's posted and answer everything. I really appreciate hearing that you like them. I have fun making them. :-)

[stareleades]
