This artist does not get nearly enough credit. |

Not really fond of Tori Amos, but I like this song. Client's "Lights Go Out" would sound good following this one.  |

I like her more intimate pieces as well, but your criticism has validity to it. Personally, I like her drama. She's captivating.

As much as it pains me to admit it, I agree... While her artistic "flourishes" (some would say excesses) make her initimate works painful and overwraught (to me), they seem to translate into pretty good rock songs.

Wow it is mighty refreshing to see a woman in "the business" who looks at (and portrays) several facets of her self. Not just the hot, cutesy, babygirl side. Sure, she's still a performer (and that's like saying "sure, he's still a politician, but...") but I see her as so much more of a "real" person than almost any other female artist out there.
Even though this song is not one of my favs, her first three albums will always be tops on my classics list.

Did I mention that the first time I heard Tori's name, I thought my friend had said "Torn Anus?" I thought he was talking about a punk band. . .  |

When Tori is good, she is very, very good. Take this song for instance.  |

I'd go farther and say this may be the only Tori Amos song I can stand... |

Sweet Communion Sweet Communion
I have waited all my life You say you are bonafide To be my judge Lay your law down on me love
Seven devils bring them on I have left my weapons 'cause I think you're wrong These devils of yours they need love
Come and kneel with me Body and Soul Come and kneel with me Body and Soul Body and Soul Body and Soul Body and Soul
Sweet Communion Sweet Communion In my temple boy be warned Violence doesn't have a home now but ecstasy That's as pure as a woman's gold
Seven devils bring them on I have left my weapons 'cause I think you're wrong These devils of yours they need love
Come and kneel with me Body and Soul Come and kneel with me Body and Soul Body and Soul Body and Soul Body and Soul
I'll save you from that sunday sermon Boy I think you need a conversion Body and Soul
Come and kneel with me Body and Soul Come and kneel with me Body and Soul Body and Soul Body and Soul Body and Soul

I agree with the lack of similarity. However, I totally dig this song!  |
