Tori Amos "Lovesong - Running Up That Hill" on harpsichord - Sept 24, 1996 - Normal, Illinois

Here is another amazing performance from the September 24, 1996 Dew Drop Inn tour DVD, filmed in Normal, Illinois. It's her cover of "Lovesong" by The Cure, played on the harpsichord. Tori also sings a few lines from "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush at 2:20 ("if I only could I'd make a deal with god.. and get him to swap our places.. running up that road, up that hill").

I love Tori.

I love Kate.

I love The Cure.

I'm thrilled to hear Lovesong from Tori. It's one of the most haunting songs ever created & her voice fits perfectly.

However, having said that, I'm highly disappointed to find she doesn't actually cover Running up that Hill as stated.

It's awesome that she so smoothly incorporated a line from Running Up That Hill, but it shouldn't be labeled that way.

It is a cover of Lovesong. NOT Running up that Hill. Throwing in a line doesn't make it a cover.

the description accurately says Tori sings a few lines from Running Up That Hill during her cover of Lovesong.

at 2:20, Tori sings: "if I only could I'd make a deal with god.. and get him to swap our places.. running up that road, up that hill"

Oh my, I love Tori Amos and Kate Bush! So much emotion from both of them, though I wish there was some more of "Running up that Hill" in this one. I have the piano version of "Lovesong" that Tori does. I just absolutly love her!

This is a treasure.

In general, I find that I don't like her live pieces as much as her studio tracks. That's in no way a diss, just the opposite: I find the composition of her studio tracks so rich and satisfying that a live track couldn't possibly match it.

@zploek No, it's an illusion having to do with the pants or lighting. She was/is actually so so tiny.

@MrSeanruane So many ppl have been comparing her to Bush and absolutely NONE can provide any plausible reasons why.

The fact that so many Kate fans are so jealous of Tori says loads about her talent though :)
