I've been listening to "Snow Cherries From France" over and over and over all day.

17. take to the sky...
This house is like Russia
With eyes cold and grey
You got me moving in a circle
I dyed my hair red today
I just want a little passion
To hold me in the dark
I know I've got some magic
Buried deep in my heart yeah

But my priest says
You ain't saving no souls
My father says
You ain't making any money
My doctor says
You just took it to the limit
And here I stand
With this sword in my hand
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time then
Have a seat while I
Take to the sky

My heart is like the ocean
It gets in the way
So close to touching freedom
Then I hear the guards call my name

But my priest says
You ain't taking no souls
My father says
You ain't making any money
My doctor says
You just took it to the limit
And here I stand
With this sword in my hand
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time then
Have a seat while I
Take to the sky

If you don't like me just a little
Why do you hang around
(There she goes again
Wearing those purple panties
There she goes again
Wearing her heart
There she goes again)
Why do you
Take it
You can say it one more time
You can say it one more time
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time then
Have a seat while I
Take to the sky

18. I cannot stand her music or her space-cadet persona.
This is true: 'bout ten years a go when I worked at the Record Exchange, some spooky teenaged girl came in looking for a recent Tori CD and asked me where she'd find it. I said look under "A" for "Amos." (and I almost said anus because my fellow employees and I had gotten into the habit of referring to her as "Torn Anus.") So she found what she wanted and when I was unlocking the case for her, it occurred to me that I'd seen a used copy in back that hadn't been filed yet. So I tell the spooky girl "hold on a sec, I could SWEAR I saw a used copy in back - maybe I can save you a few bucks." Well, the chick flipped -- her already-spooky eyes about tripled in diameter and she challenged me thusly: "WHY WOULD SOMEONE RETURN A TORI CD? HUH? WHY?" Like it was the ultimate personal betrayal that someone she didn't even know disliked an album by an artist she was clearly WAY too into. Tori-chicks are fucked up, man. They're not ALL that off the deep end, but I resolved on that day never to date a Tori Amos fan. That resolution has worked out extremely well for me.

22. Hmmmm this explains a lot
Like why my exes (who were collectively insane) all loved Tori Amos.

Having said that, I love her stuff and find her sexuality spellbinding. Yes, I had a thing for the crazy girls.

21. Missed her

What song did she do? The Beekeeper is a great CD. "Ribbons Undone" is as amazing as any Tori song. And she's as pretty as anyone who was there. :-)

24. I used to love Tori. But I had major issues with the new record.
Not her weakest, IMHO, but I couldn't even listen to all of it. And I am one of the original Ears With Feet. Something's not the same. And I don't mean that in a good way.
