Tori Amos Take to the sky (Russia)

strange little webcast

This house is like Russia
With eyes cold and grey
You got me moving in a circle
I dyed my hair red today
I just want a little passion
To hold me in the dark
I know I've got some magic
Buried deep in my heart yeah

But my priest says
You ain't saving no souls
My father says
You ain't making any money
My doctor says
You just took it to the limit
And here I stand
With this sword in my hand
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time then
Have a seat while I
Take to the sky

My heart is like the ocean
It gets in the way
So close to touching freedom
Then I hear the guards call my name

But my priest says
You ain't taking no souls
My father says
You ain't making any money
My doctor says
You just took it to the limit
And here I stand
With this sword in my hand
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time then
Have a seat while I
Take to the sky

If you don't like me just a little
Why do you hang around

Why do you
Take it
You can say it one more time
You can say it one more time
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time then
Have a seat while I
Take to the sky

I know there is quite a few to choose from, but this has always been my absolute favorite Tori song. A personal anthem even.

'LIPGLOSS' HAAA love it!!!!!!!!!!!!

This song has attitude :)

[lightindigoeyes2011]

one of my all time favorite (Bee-Sides), back when she was doing her really Deep/Dark/Prophecy/Metaphorica­l stuff where I would fall In love with a song or a number of songs off 1 or 2 albums and have no idea why I was so instantaneaously captivated by them b/c at the time I had'nt listened enough to understand what she was even saying... Isnt funny how all these years later...I'm still listening to little Earthquakes, and I still dont get some of the songs...brilliant..that Tori!

[MayweedMole]

Awesome, one of my faves....she truly is a goddess!!! :)

It's like watching a hurricane, getting blown away, and kissing the lips of Athena.

[mozaphile]

inside my head the noise chatter chatter chatter.

[Snobert]

that 1 dislike must have been a mistake

[Cyaneyed77]

I love how she can change just one little nuance in a song live (take it take it take it) and find another way to blow you away.

adorei o jeito diferente de tocar o piano como percussão e a maneira de se sentar no banco característicos de Tori. Original e atual.

If anyone can tell me what chords she's playing with that left hand, I'll give them a cookie in my next life. =)
