Tori Amos - Running Up That Hill/God (Live)

This was recorded during her Summer of Sin Tour in 2005. She performs a haunting version of "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)", which flows into Tori Amos' own "God", which flows back into RUTH.

Oh yes, if there's any Tori Amos vs. Kate Bush business in the comments section, I will remove the offending comments. You either respect both artists or not post anything at all.

SInce YouTube won't let me reply to people, you can get this song in the downloads section of this website: http://www.yessaid.com/toriamos.html

i've always thought the tori/kate comparison was kinda misogynistic....'well we already have one kinda weird fairy woman....why do we need another' in the end, their likenesses are superficial...the core of tori's music is a push against intense southern religious supression of sexuality where kate is very much centered in the celtic mythos. in the end, i always found these comparisons as attacks against both women and an attempt to marginalize both their musical outputs in one fell swoop.

@bbruening1 Your comment is probably the best thing I have read about the comparisons. It really reaches the core of this petty fandom rivalry.

@bbruening1 It's not misogynistic, we Brits just don't like someone blatantly ripping off Kate's sound and image.

This is hauntingly gorgeous, I'd loved Tori Amos for the longest, since early 90's and high school. I have never seen her live, I'd love to....and I've always loved "Running up that Hill," this is beautiful, the magic and talent of Tori, how she entertwines these songs, just beautiful

Came here not expecting much and am absolutely blow away by the artistry she exhibited. An absolutely beautiful rendition with so much heartfelt passion.

I was actually quite surprised when I was listening to Kate Bush's new version of "This Woman's Work" on Director's Cut, played on the rhodes...it sounded very, very Tori-like.

Flat out Kate was an influence on Tori. Who cares about comparisons! This is an amazing performance with an ODE to Kate! That is AWESOME! To mesh these 2 songs together, pure GENIUS on Tori's part!!! PERIOD!

I like Placebo's version better
