The Tori Amos thread

[GnFnR87]

people tend to forget about To Venus And Back which i liked alot too, "1,000 Oceans" is just gorgeous.

Yeah, that's a cool and trippy album. Could have been longer though. Tori should have put the studio version of Sugar, Cooling and Purple People on it, which were previously unreleased, but got place on the live disc of Venus. With those 3 songs added, Venus would be amazing.

yeah those three songs are great and would have fit perfectly on that record.

American Doll Posse is getting awesome reviews, this got me drooling:

"There are moments of jaw-dropping virtuosity on American Doll Posse, the kind of moments Tori?s fans live for: unexpected vocal layering and harmonies, piano lines driven home at break-neck speed, and an overall sound that is everything and the kitchen sink."

i can't wait to buy this on saturday.

I got American Doll Posse on Tuesday and its pretty much been in my CD player ever since. I really love it.

My Tori ranking:

Under the Pink
Little Eathquakes
American Doll Posse
To Venus and Back
From the Choirgirl Hotel

that awesome man, i'm excited to get it. did u get the special addition with the DVD?

i can't believe u ranked From The Choirgirl Hotel so low!!! that hurts me man!! i think thats easily her best, its one of my favorite albums ever and made me a die hard Tori fan.

[Misfits 138]

i love Tori, i am gonna pick up the new one on monday probably. i got that piano one not too long ago, and i love it, such a diverse collection of Tori stuff...the song that really got me into Tori was "Flying Dutchman" which i feel is kinda underappreciated by some people, because it is very very beautifully put together, and a very beautiful song all arround. i was really disapointed by beekeeper, but from what i head of ADP i really like it, now i wait for her to do a tour of the states. and i really hope to meet her somepoint in my life.

I like The Choirgirl Hotel, just not my favorite. I just got the regular CD.

[GnFnR87]

got American Doll Posse. i like it alot so far, alot to digest tho. i'm really loving "Digital Ghost". so far i think it starts off really well, sags a bit in the middle, but picks up again towards the end. i'll be back in a week or so with a more extensive review.

when is she rumored to hit the states to tour? in the fall?

Who cares about the States?    I will see Tori two times this year: once in Wien and once in Budapest. I can't wait 


BTW my favourite store didn't get the limited edition Doll cd, so I have to wait till it arrives...     This week, they said.

[GnFnR87]

yeah i was thinking about getting the special edition but it was so much more expensive and it was in that shitty paper case. i hate it when artists have albums in that shitty paper case.... and i wanted to buy other shit so i saved money and just got the regular edition.... i'm starting to think i should've gotten the special edition anyway though.....[smashes face on desk]

[GeraldFord]

[GnFnR87]

thanx for setlist!!? ?


yeah i would assume she will tour the states in the fall? *crosses fingers*

i just listened to Boys for Pele for the first time in a while and i forgot how good it is. heres my rankings of Tori Albums.

1. From The Choirgirl Hotel
2. Little Earthquakes, Boys for Pele (tied)
3. American Doll Posse
4. To venus and Back
5. Under the pink
6. The Beekeeper

i havent listened to Scarlet's Walk enough to rank it, i own the album i just havent gotten around to listening to it much cuz all her other albums are so fucking good.

i like Under the Pink and The Beekeeper i feel her other albums are better. i know Under The Pink is highly regarded among fans and critics but to be honest it doesnt do much for me. i think Little Earthquakes is better and hell of a debut album.

[Mikkamakka]

I've just arrived home from the Budapest show..it was even better than the Vienna one... I'm speechless... I've just met Tori, made her sign some stuff, a friend of me taken 4 pictures of us and last but not least witnessed the best show of my life so far... and I've seen some, including two GN'R shows, one in 2oo6 and one in 1992... This woman...is a goddess. Live forever, Tori and thank you

Saw her a little more than a week ago here in Finland...

She was everything I had ever hoped for... My god. It was simply amazing. Don't have any video from the show, at least not yet. But YLE Extra ( a finnish tv-channel) filmed the whole thing, and I've seen the material. Of course a festival crowd isn't the best audience, but she was still stunning.

I really don't remember the setlist.

Edit: Some videos from the show.
