Tori Amos - Cornflake Girl (Soundstage, Live)

Tori Amos - Cornflake Girl from the PBS Soundstage Series.

Lyrics:

Never was a cornflake girl
Thought that was a good solution
Hanging with the raisin girls
She's gone to the other side
Givin us a yo heave ho
Things are getting kind of gross
And I go at sleepy time
This is not really happening
You bet your life it is

Peel out the watchword
Just peel out the watchword

She knows what's goin on
Seems we got a cheaper feel now
All the sweetcaze are gone
Gone to the other side
With my encyclopedia
They musta paid her a nice price
She's putting on her string bean love
This is not really happening
You bet your life it is

Peal our the watchword
Just peel out the watchword

Never was a cornflake girl
Thought that was a good solution

Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl
And the man with the golden gun thinks he knows so much
Thinks he knows so much
Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl

If one watches every Tori Amos video in which Matt Chamberlain (drummer) and Jon Evans (bassist) perform, it is obvious that they bring out the best in Tori's music as well as Tori's actual performance.

I don't like the audience throughout this show. They never move or scream or seem to get excited. I would have climaxed if I heard her play this song sitting in the audience

[DANIEL777ISRAEL]

please, put the entire show in 720! please!

I saw her live in 1994...I'm really dating myself here...I wasn't even a teen, was in my mid-twenties. She was beyond......and even I, a hetero female could see she's sexy, evey guy there wished to be that piano bench!! Before playing this song, she held up her hand and said, "hey girls, we don't need those guy when we have this!!" We almost peed ourselves laughing.

Having watched as many Tori vids as I have (and that's a lot!) I've noticed that live TV appearances tend to have tamer audiences. Which leads me to believe that the audience is probably coached to stay relatively quiet to preserve the sound for TV.

Oh, and also, Tori is Dead Sexy in this video.

@anotherlooker Totally feel you on that one...!!

On the other hand listening to her and just her is pure bliss, not sure I don't like the lack of excitement from the audience in this case. Plus she has such an intimate and passionate relationship with her piano, making any kind of noise would be like intruding:) Either way fantastic upload, thank you wbsteven!!
