Ms. Amos exhibits a trait that I'm not sure has a name, but most certainly has a tribe of practitioners: heavy vocal wavering; on a guitar it would be the equivalent to heavy tremolo.
Two questions:
(1) Do they think that's a more artistic/pleasant/talented way to sing?
(2) Do you RP'ers think that its a more artistic/pleasant/talented way to sing?

Wow. Never noticed the lyrics overlayed. (I'm sure there is a musicology term for this.)

It seems that most RP-listners don't like Tori. But I do!

Overall rating is at present 4.3 too low on 5.7. Unstoppable album of utter brilliance - every song a 10.

If there wasn't Tori Amos we would have to invent her. Excellent.

Never thought I would admit that she has a very nice voice.

Not my favorite Tori song, but it reminds me of a friend.

Certainly better sounding than Tom Waits's gravel voice (who I can like) and yet he often is rated more tolerably here. They're very different artists, and I imagine many people are more put off by her voice than they are by his. This song's pretty good; I don't get all the hate, but whatever. |

When I listen to these solo, esp female, artists, I think of all the advantages of having a band, and having your fellow member/friends tell you when something doesn't sound good. The collaboration aspect of rock is the artistic element that is so under-appreciated.

Sorry, don't like Tori's music. I find it grating and not soothing in the least.

I can't help but think her music is a joke, and she's laughing all the way to the bank. It's so bad, but people "claim" to love it. How, when, why, where? I am confused.

This is a little to high up on the keys. When she puts a little bass into her compositions, I like her. Otherwise, eh.
