In my high school there are at least five totally obsessed Tori fans who own every album and single, and almost another dozen people (that i know of) who love Tori and have a few albums or mix tapes. Anyone i've ever put Tori on a mix tape for has said they loved her. However, her crossover to the R&B/Rap demographic seems to be zilch (though i am currently working on it), and at our prom the DJ looked at me like i grew a second head when i asked him to play Jackie's Strength (Me:"You know, it WAS a #1 dance hit" DJ:"yeah, and...") and then claimed to have never heard of Professional Widow. Of course, this was the same DJ who refused to play both "Vogue" and "Zoot Suit Riot," so draw your own conclusions...

I'm the only person in my area (which is rural north fucking Arkansas . . . I know what a bad name that gives me) who even knows that she exists. Of course, this is redneck country and I am very proud to say that passed me by. But yes, the music in my school ranges from Garth Brooks to Britney Spears to Limp Bizkit. I will say, though, that for the most part the people are open to suggestion, and one of my friends is slowly beginning to like Tori. For the other part, the people are closed-minded and think she is some Satanic, Bible-burning freak, which is fine with me.

Since then I've become a really big Tori fan and was able to see her twice on the plugged 98 tour.. As far as my friends liking Tori, I only have about 3 friends that are really into her. I've started to turn a couple of my other friends that had barely heard of her before onto her music..which really excites me.

I was wondering if anyone else was really into this song like me. lotsofloveintori, Terry >> I think this song is about what society perceives as a woman's power - her sexuality. She vamps poor Humpty, he thinks he's gonna get a little. They go to the river and she asks him to sit up on the wall, supposedly because she wants to take his picture. Of course, he's more than willing to comply, because it will get him closer to his goal of getting a little. When he falls, Betty Louise says "I like custard".....so all along, she intended to break his shell and use the egg to make custard. I think it's all summed up in the line "what it takes to be queen" - often, women think they have to use their "wiles" to get what they want.

It has certainly served her well, since this young musician's songs have won her a cadre of loyal fans. A piano prodigy early on, Amos didn't conform to music academy rules so she struck out on her own, moving to L.A. and joining an alternative band. Striking out on her own was clearly a wise move, since it gave Amos the opportunity to showcase her considerable talents. Yes, the gal voted "Most Likely to Succeed" in high school has surely done that, along with many other good works, among them advocacy on behalf of battered and raped women. Birth details: August 22, 1963 Newton, North Carolina Born under a Leo Sun, Amos is a creative and idealistic woman, one to whom others look up. With her Sun conjunct Uranus, it's easy to see, however, that this singer marches to the beat of a different drummer (or is that pianist?). Amos' Sun is also opposite stern Saturn here, which points to issues with authority. Finally, the singer's Sun is also conjunct Venus -- can you say hero to women? Thanks to a Libra Moon, this rocker girl is diplomatic and as harmonious as a chord in C. Amos also enjoys being in a relationship and loves to communicate with others, making her a natural at songwriting. The flip side to this placement is that Amos can be somewhat indecisive. With her Mercury in Virgo, Amos won't always say what she means, although she's generally well thought out and practical. And it will take awhile to get to know this woman. It's Venus in Leo which tells us that Tori loves romance and will go after what (and whom) she wants. Since the Planet of Love is opposite Saturn, however, look for someone who will stay in love long term but only with a peaceable sort. Tori can thank Mars in Libra for her ability to make the peace -- and keep it. The singer also has a keen sense of the aesthetic; it's an opposition to Jupiter which further points to competitiveness. Finally, with an abundance of fixed planets, look for Amos to hold her ground. Go girl!

I've got to answer the young tori fan question. I'm 20. Almost 21 (six weeks and counting folks!). I've been a Tori fan since I was 13, the summer before I started high school. I've been much more hardcore in the past year and a half when i discovered the land of Tori listserves and boots and stuff. But I've been a fan since way back. I'm the only hardcore fan I know. My boyfriend is not a fan, however he's tolerant. He likes some songs more than others, but always will listen. A lot. We saw Tori together during Plugged, I bought the tickets but he was more than willing to go. That means a lot to me, as Tori is a big part of my life and it makes me happy he'll recognize that and be okay with it. One of my closest friends hates Tori. With a passion. Won't let me listen anywhere around her, makes disparaging comments etc. Its hurt me in the past, a lot. I tolerate her music choices and have even grown to like some but her inability to recognize its important to me and therefore hurtful when she disparages it has been a tough spot in our relationship. Especially as we lived together this past year. She's graduated now, it won't be as much of a problem but its still there. And still hurts. And now I have a new friend who likes Tori. We're going to the 51/2 weeks tour together. We didn't meet until March (she's the girlfriend of an ex and he tried to keep us apart...but when we all accidentally ended up in Jamaica for spring break...we all hung out) but now we're becoming closer and closer friends. I'm really happy about this, especially as she's a Tori fan. So she's my Tori friend connection as of right now. although I do know my boyfriend's best friend likes Tori, doesn't own much of her stuff but definitely knows who she is and likes her music. So that's my experience.

I fell in love with her music at the age of 14. At first I liked it that nobody knew her (I always disliked mainstream), but I realized soon that it is somehow sad to have nobody to talk about Tori and her songs. My best friend for example is such a nice person, but he listens to stuff like Celine Dion... Anyway, I remember that day back in 97 or so we voted our favourite songs in class (they had to be in the charts). Of course I voted for Tori`s PW Mix (although I don`t like it too much, but at least it is Tori), which was in the charts at that time. When it was read out a stupid guy from my class started to say things like how bad Tori is and so on. I wanted to shout something like: Shut up you little bastard! You don`t even know Tori or her music! but of course I didn`t (I´m a shy person, even more back then). OK, forget about it. I was really happy when I was on that Tori concert last year and saw how many tori fans there are, because I somehow believed I was the only one till then :) I was surprised also when I played Winter on the piano at school and an (older) girl said something like: oh, Tori Amos! and some months ago a good friend of mine bought ftcgh and we talked about it.

You're exactly right! Here's the quote: If there's one well-known mythical name you would expect Amos to drop, it's Lilith, the figure of ancient Jewish lore, adopted by the defining event of the femme-rock era. Surely the uncompetitive and surprising well-adjusted Amos must find her spiritual home in the pagan bosom of the festival for which she is unofficial den mother. Then again, maybe Amos is not quite that well-adjusted. "Well, I would have a good bottle of wine with Sarah [McLachlan, Lilith Fair's founder] any night of the week," she allows. "But my shows are theater, and I've worked a long time to get them to this point. This isn't just about eating some chicken and hearing a few of your favorite female singers. You walk into my show, you walk into a world - it's a film every night. I can't impose that on Lilith and vice versa. "Plus, I'm not into the all-male, all-female thing," says Amos with growing agitation. "Where's Dionysus? Where's Hades? You can't cut out the testosterone. And we need some pansy-ass people, too, like little camp Hermes. Even though I'm sure some of those women have more testosterone than Hermes," she adds with a slightly unsisterly roll of the eyes. >From: Summer Smith >To: "C.F." >CC: intestinegirl@yahoo.com, precious-things@smoe.org >Subject: Re: love her madly..... >Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 13:44:35 -0400 (EDT) > >If I remember correctly, that comment she made might be in the Rolling >Stones issue where she's on the cover,.

He called her a manipulator and a >careerist. Ok, I just think it's funny this discussion should arise at this precise moment, because I just read this on Sonicnet, and I know "starfucker" isn't exactly uncommon, but it's still quite a coincidence (if not deliberately a hint to Professional Widow... I wouldn't know, I don't have the lyrics yet). Anyhow, according to Sonicnet, NIN's new record is probably coming out this fall, and the first single is most likely going to be "The Day the World Went Away" and... "The single's B-side reportedly will contain "Starfuckers, Inc.," which is said to be a brutal piece of industrial metal, along with another song called "The Wretched."

Most of you probably know about this anyway and you can scan through this if you want. Anyhow, I was in the mall today and decided to randomly browse in Sam Goody. This song came on and it was kind of weird because I knew that it was tori but I had no idea what song it was. I asked some guy who was working there what album it was and he brought out the No Boundary album (a compiliation that benefits Kosovo refugees). I had already forgotten all about this album and didn't realize it had been released yet. Anyhow in case anyone doesn't know the album features Ms. tori with merman. It also has a live song from Sarah MacLauchlan, a song from Alanis--Baba--and other artists like Ben Folds Five and Phil Collins. I haven't listened to it yet but I am excited that merman was finally released....now off I go to my CD player.... lauren15@hotmail.com http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/7657 evening stretched her cloak ********************** King Solomons Mine's Exit 75 I'm still alive I'm still alive *********************** _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

I'm looking for a full scan of the boot "Phoenix". I think it's by Magic Hat Recordings. Anywho... if you have a full scan or this or know of a URL I can d/l it from, that'd be great, because I need to print it out for my inserts. I tried Shiri & Isaac's Tori Amos Bootleg Scans, but the one that's uploaded there is cropped wrong, so I'm trying to find a better one.

I'm looking for an MP3 program so that I may convert some of my sound files into MP3s instead of leaving them as Real Audio files... Only problem is I'm on a Macintosh, and I haven't found any programs for a Mac on the web... Now, don't get me wrong, cuz I love my iMac, but once in a blue moon there are things that I can't do that all you PC people can do... :( So if anyone knows of an MP3 program that will convert sounds files into MP3s and it's Mac compatible, please e-mail me!!

I'm pretty sure someone else posted a simlar question a while back, but I don't remember any of the responses. :-( Anyways, I just finished reading "Possessing the Secret of Joy" (which I recomend to anyone who hasn't read it yet!) and I was hoping some of you out there had some other suggesssions for reading that relates to Tori and her music... I'd like to read a few good books this summer and I figured, why not make them Tori books? ;-) THANKS A LOT!

Like Erica, I play lots of Tori songs on the piano. I had a funny first ecounter with Tori music. When I was about 11 I borrowed BfP from the library. Now, maybe some 11 year olds totally dig BfP but I think was a little young for it. The fact that she said "cock" in a song, was suckling a piglet disgusted me, and I thought the songs made no sense. So I left Tori alone until last year when I heard a Tori interview and some Choirgrrl songs on the radio. I loved them and now Boys for Pele may be my favorite album. :) Tori is rarely liked in this school, as well, it's mostly Backstreet Boys stuff.. Every once and a while I'll encounter a Tori fan and one of my teachers played Boys for Pele(*nothing* more surprising than seeing your teacher hum and groove to "Springtime of His Voodoo"). Most people know who she is though. ~~Kristen On Mon, 14 Jun 1999 19:42:27 -0400 Len Alan Demby writes: > >Hello Everybody, > >My name is Len and I am a Tori fan.
