| Post subject: | Tori Amos! |
Any other metal heads as wrapped up and in awe with her as I am??? Just something about the lyrics and vocals. Especially the stripped down versions and B-songs like cooling, honey and sugar Been checking these live outtube videos. Simply outstanding. No recording tools needed for this lady, just the instrument. I have been amazed for years now. I literally get drawn in!!!!! I think i could listen to her just make noises and bang meaningless notes on the keys> serious i think im losing my mind. |

She's been a favorite of mine since the early 90s, whenever that first album came out. She's brilliant. A chick and a piano is something I have a big soft spot for. You ever heard Tara Maclean or Charlotte Martin? Check these out: CHARLOTTE MARTIN - HAUNTED (some serious Tori-esque stuff going on here) TARA MACLEAN - EVIDENCE (a remix, cool but the original is better)

I have to agree 100%. She's absolutely brilliant and tremendously talented. I remember watching a VH1 'Storytellers' episode dedicated to her and she just blew me away. |

Is she like Ani DiFranco or is she more classical driven, would you say? |

Nothing like Ani. Tori's foundation is piano, where Ani is generally acoustic guitar-based all the time. Tori is far more eclectic and weird. |

She's pretty damn emotional, especially on her first two albums. She was raped back then, so a couple tunes are pretty hardcore. What do you mean by songwriting approach? |

DiFranco employs rather repetitive, sharp chord structures, and develops slightly atonal vocal lines over it. Is Amos more "poppish" or traditional (I-IV-V) when it comes to songwriting? |

Shit...I have no idea. I can play music, but I don't understand it. Haha. Maybe you should listen here: WINTER (Live) GOD (Live) BIG WHEEL WELCOME TO ENGLAND (new song) Some pretty varied tunes. |

Ok, Winter is beautiful, Welcome to London was really cool, but God annoyed me and Big Wheel left me indifferent. |

The studio version of "God" is great. "Big Wheel" is from the last album. It's a cool song, but she's gotten more experimental and wacky over the last few albums. I think she's hanging with Neil Gaiman too much. Haha. The only thing I can suggest is that you buy her albums, or download one to get a taste. |

The first one. Little Earthquakes. Then just go in order, or get them all. |
