TORI AMOS & PS22 CHORUS Pt.1 of 4 TORI WEEPS....

http://ps22chorus.blogspot.com/

Yesterday 5-4-07, was THE experience of a lifetime! Christmas came early in 2007, that's for sure! Here's the story. After seeing PS22's 5th grade chorus Tori-cover videos sent to Amos' P.R. peeps by Undented.com, Sony contacted us and invited us to sing for and with Tori!!

Here's Pt. 1. The kids sang Dragon and....... THEY BROUGHT TORI TO TEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE: This video has gone on to become one of the most viewed Tori Amos videos on YouTube, and garnered the PS22 Chorus much attention, including write-ups in USA Today, The New York Daily News, the VH1 blog, and probably most notably on the Perez Hilton blog. Perez, the ultra-hilarious gossip blogger turned TV personality, is featuring Tori Amos in his upcoming VH1 DIVAS special that includes (among others) Gloria Estefan, Pink, Janet Jackson, Jill Scott, Mary J. Blige, and Chaka Khan!

This guy is an incredibly passionate and inspiring teacher. What a doll! Teacher of the Year!

[radrider82]

Just goes to show what class Tori Amos is compared to these wannabe's. She's on a completely different level of talent and ingenuity than Beyonce, Britney or any of these materialistic "artists". Gorgeous, gorgeous video.

[SapphireJesse08]

Oh gosh, I cried the MOMENT they started singing. You can tell Tori was moved too, it was very sweet.

[TheStupidThingsiDo]

Amazing!

[markkreutzer]

Not one of her best days? On her worst of days she tops the negative vibe you have. She always makes time to meet anyone & everyone she can. Our weakness lies in our judgement of others.

[dogsrule1881]

Im named after her!!

[oYoYebutu]

She looks like this is not one of her best days. Have listened to her lots long, long ago, have not followed her since to learn about her, so I don't know, could have been one such day.

Wonder whether she would make time to meet anyone less famous than the choir...

@madisonen My birthday as well!

[frajilhart]

[SheryeS]

I was thinking about this performance last week, cause this is one of my favorite versions of the song. Just stumbled on you guys being interviewed on the red carpet CONGRATS on making it to the Oscars, you children are inspirational!

[Spinny78]

Watching this again tonight, Gregg, to prepare myself for the Oscar's! Never a time I cannot cry watching.
