Felt much the same way when I started listening to RP. In fact Wuthering Heights, in particular, got on my nerves. But now, I'm starting to get why some people like her so much. A big thanks to Bill for that - the way he sequences the music has everything to do with me discovering new acts and growing to like acts I'd previously decided were not my cup of tea. |

Who is Tori Amos  We grew up on Kate Bush in Toronto listening to the once incredible CFNY over the FM airwaves.

Kate Bush (b. 1958) had her first No. 1 (UK) hit in 1967, when Tori Amos (b. 1963) was 14. Mmm, Tori was probably out of a TB by then, and Kate, with only one hit under her quirky belt, wasn't yet a legend. I will agree, however, that Kate was massively huge before Tori was a blip on the collective radar. And, yes, I'm talking about star status, not the things that TBs attend to...

The older I get, the more I love Kate. Especially her earlier work. Beautiful.

Nice one Bill, From Peter Gabriel - In Your Eyes (Live in Athens 1988) with Youssou n'Dour, originally from the Album "So". to Kate Bush, who also sang on "So", with some rather Mbalax-like drums and a very Senegalese sounding string picking instrument. Is it a kora? |

I first heard this song as part of a mix tape that a boyfriend made for me in college in 1989-1991... loved it then, and still love it. One of the few songs where I really love the lyric content- like the Chameleon's Second Skin song... I'm not huge into lyrics but this one is an exception!

The feathers should come off with the tar, but if they don't, you'll just look like a feathered something-or-other. (Let's agree that Kate Bush was a legend before Tori Amos was in a trainer bra.) I'm holding the tar and feathers in retainer. ;o) |
