IN the nineties, the piano has not received the respect it deserves — at least from pop artists. But Tori Amos makes the piano central to her overall presentation, both onstage and in the studio. Over the course of many albums and two EPs, she has established herself as both a critical and commercial success. She's a fine singer, a terrific pianist, a captivating performer, and an intriguing songwriter who addresses relationships from a candid, sometimes brutal perspective. What sets her apart from her peer group of young female singer-songwriters is her ability to wrap her painful experiences within mythic metaphors. At the same time, Amos's musical expertise enables her to bounce stylistically from sophisticated, heart-tugging ballads to whimsical, somewhat jazz More... (Submit New Tori Amos Lyrics) (Submit New Tori Amos Lyrics) cornflakesssss. | Reviewer: marshmallow. ------ About the song Cornflake Girl performed by Tori Amos This came from about a young African woman going through the ritual of female genital cutting. In the song two factions of women are referred to: the "Raisin Girls" are "multicultural" and open-minded, while the "Cornflake Girls" of the title are narrowminded and full of prejudice My Siren | Reviewer: P_e ------ About the song Siren performed by Tori Amos i love this song. and when i listen i always have the impression that T sings the Siren's Song and assumes the siren's myth. sirens were said to be winged creatures and in the song coquette is referred to. yeah it means flirt, but also its a type of humming bird, and what do birds do best of all? they sing. and although associated with the sea, these sirens lived on the 'flowery island'. and vanilla comes from orchids, and interestingly is an aphrodesiac. she sings this song calling perhaps to Persephone, the daughter of Demeter who gave the siren her wings for not protecting persephone when hades abducted her. genuinely, i feel Siren to be a love and a lust song. a love song that almost fills her pregnant; perhaps it is even exploring more than the obvious type of love; perhaps the song hints at the love of a mother for her daughter too, like in great expectations where miss havisham loves her daughter estelle, but has ruined and broken every chance for that girl finding love because of her own suffering. or perhaps how demeter is almost broken through losing her daughter persephone. i think this story in the song, whomever it is sung to, could conjour a very seductive and powerful wanting....such as pips life long desire for estelle. her side | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Father Lucifer performed by Tori Amos when she performed this on vh1 storytellers she told a story about how her very christian father had been upset that she wrote such a hurtful song about him and was then greatly relieved when she explained that it was in fact the result of a meeting with lucifer she had had during ritual drug use with a shaman. although the lyrics dont well lend themselves to this story. heart&soul | Reviewer: kevin sayer ------ About the song Little Earthquakes performed by Tori Amos When i look at tori sing her songs shes recreates her life stories. The emotion and desire become as 1 combined with her piano. I myself have never heard anyone quite like her. It would be a great honor to meet her i do find similarities with her love of nature and certain aspects of life's expectancies. If there are gods i will always consider her one of mine. i realy love this song | Reviewer: Tori ------ About the song You Belong To Me performed by Tori Amos i sing this so much thats it's a habit i have it on my phone and evry thing they think that because your eleven you dot listen to music like this but i do i love all of the songs she brong to the radio Sugar | Reviewer: Marc ------ About the song Sugar performed by Tori Amos I've been a fan of Tori's since the beginning. This is one of my favorites. The song is emotional and brings a deep sadness to me but is such a great one. I'd give anything to have the song on one of her future records. Tori is such a wonderful soul. Father Lucifer | Reviewer: Dale Daniels ------ About the song Father Lucifer performed by Tori Amos This song has something to do with a shadowy figure Tori must have known back a long time ago. The story goes that this guy was an aquaintence of hers who she kinda liked.They lost touch until he sent her this water color of a girl in a wedding dress and told her she needed to get married. Apparently she knew where this guy lived and one day flew over his house while he was sitting out by the pool. Her plane circled him several times and then flew away. If any of this is true, its really bizarre but romantic. But the lyrics do suggest some of this. Outstanding..as usual | Reviewer: birdi ------ About the song Almost Rosey performed by Tori Amos I absolutely agree with 6:58, big wheel is definatly worth listening to, as is every other Tori song, but this one just speak's volumes, exactly like "Under the Pinkthe only song on this album that beats this one is Girl Dissapearing...Tori never dissapoints..amazing. 'splainin? | Reviewer: Karen ------ About the song Siren performed by Tori Amos Hard to say what it's about? Absolutely not! This girl is tougher than freaking nails... she has to be. She'll drown you the first chance she gets... she's a Siren. No Subject | Reviewer: Nicole ------ About the song Landslide performed by Tori Amos I love this song!! it's my solo song for dance!! can you send it to me on my email please!!!

It's not hard to follow. Most of her songs have story elements, but it's in a song so it's more broken, kind of like a puzzle. She's wonderful live performing this song. great song!!! | Reviewer: nashie ------ About the song Sugar performed by Tori Amos Jyonah, it's really a shame that this song isn't on the album. I read somewhere that Tori actually regrets not putting Sugar on the album...she also didn't know what's wrong with her when she made the decision...Honey too should be on the album, but it's on B-sides. Tori...you're so great on this song! ur funny too...i love yew! Brilliant.. Haunting | Reviewer: Ben Green ------ About the song Siren performed by Tori Amos Movie was ok, but this song's amazing. It's up there with Hey Jupiter and A Sorta Fairytale. She's talented, sensual and feminine and plays the sh*t out of the piano!!!! Go Tori. Tori...she brings us sugar!!! | Reviewer: Jyonah ------ About the song Sugar performed by Tori Amos This is one of Tori's most under-rated and least known songs. Why she made this masterpiece a b-side I would really like to know. For those of you who would really like to hear how gorgeous this song is, the best version is on Tori's "Welcome to Sunny Florida DVD" (track three I think). Failing that, the Piano collection has this also. Sugar....Tori brings us sugar...Jyonah ;) One of two of my favorites | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Cooling performed by Tori Amos There are two recordings that showcase the ethereality of Tori's voice. It's why I love her. The first one I fell hard for was Hey Jupiter (Dakota version) where she goes on trilly, sung in a round, musical epiphany. The second is Cooling from To Venus and Back Disc 2. Here she takes us along as we fall faster out of love than we can handle. As she finishes the song, her pain is tangibly breathtaking, and the song is gilt in beauty. I love you, Tori. almost rosey in md | Reviewer: saa raa ------ About the song Almost Rosey performed by Tori Amos I love this song! its my favorite on the new album, but there is no tori song i don't like, only ones who get neglected more often than others... "Blue skies" | Reviewer: Ivy ------ About the song Blue Skies performed by Tori Amos OMG,,,,,Awesome song 4gotten,,,Tori is my Goddess since the beginning,,There r so many awesome projects Tori has done,, 4 gotten...but not by us Tori Fans.Even her old stuff is better than the shit music out there now days.... thank you Tori (once again) | Reviewer: Daniel ------ About the song Apollo's Frock performed by Tori Amos To me, one of Tori's best song, in the vein of "Winter" on her first album. The long piano intro is a wonderful mix of sensibility and cleverness in musical writing. When Tori' voice comes in, you can find her trademark. The refrain is specially beautiful, with its mixed voices. It can even make tears come to my eyes. On the same album but quite different, "Bug a Martini" & "Tombigbee" are great ones, with a beautiful use of the rythm section. i like it a lot but... | Reviewer: sara ------ About the song Siren performed by Tori Amos but as most of TOri's songs, is a bit difficult to understand what she really wants to say...... cherrio!!
