This is back in the day when Tori was good. One of the few songs I'll consider if only for the lyrics.

I'd forgotten how much I used to love Tori. Little Earthquakes.. I listened this tape into a violent death. Tear in Your Hand (i think) was my favorite. Dunno what was lost along the way... maybe something about artists that stare into the camera all spooky-like ;)

Funny you should say that becuase that is precisely how I was feeling before I heard the song.. and I just popped in here to say how much this song speaks to me today..

Easily one of the most eye-opening CDs I have ever purchased. And like some of you, it was the MTV video that did it. I saw only about 1/2 of it, and on the way home from class the very next day I bought it, and have never looked back. Also had the luck to be seated just a few rows away from her in Champaign-Urbana (was it '94?) for one of best concerts I have ever attended.

Amazing. Just amazing.
... i like that story although i'm somewhat jealous? Seated just a few rows away, wow!

I'm guessing it was April 1993 when I saw this video on VH1 for the first time. Id' never heard of Tori before, but I saw that flaming red hair sitting at the battered upright piano, and I knew something was up. I went to my own piano across the room, started playing along to the bumblebee-tinkling riff, and had to stop from sheer amazement. Later that afternoon I bought the cd (it was in one of those long cardboard sleeves), and my life has never been the same. Thank you, Tori.


For the rest of us that missed it on MTV.

When an artist accomplishes that - they have truly pleased the muse. Tori is truly an artist. You too methinks.

Now we finally learn why she sings so incoherently on her other songs--to hide the inanity of her lyrics. I think I was mocking lyrics like this in high school already, so that would put them at below a 9th grade level of quality.


explain. what about these lyrics is mockable? what do you think she's singing about? just curious? what types of lyrics are "valid"? I am not being sarcastic, i just want to know.

Granted, I hate Tori as much as the next guy, but twice in 5 hours is excessive.
