(Kurt Markus) By Shannon Zimmerman Special to The Washington Post Wednesday, November 6, 2002; Page C05 Tori Amos -- erstwhile hair-metal hottie and, before that, D.C. piano bar chanteuse -- has managed to become quite the alt-rock entrepreneur. She sports a loyal fan base that obsessively analyzes her cryptic song-poetry and virtually ensures that every release rings up heavy-rotation sales regardless of the scant airplay she receives. No less an icon than R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe once asked Amos if he could borrow her crowd. And who could blame him? At this point, R.E.M. could use a few of the singer's hopelessly devoted fans. To her credit, Amos never takes her audience for granted, and with "Scarlet's Walk," her latest CD, she sets a new standard for customer appreciation. Let the industry suits whine about file-sharing and threaten litigation that would turn their customers into criminals. Amos is focused on giving the people what they want: an actual reason to plunk down their hard-earned $20. True, the "limited-edition" version of "Scarlet's Walk" lists for a few dollars more than the album itself, but, then the former package is a veritable horn of plenty, including Tori's map of the United States, a page of kiddie-cute cartoon stickers, and a set of faux-Polaroids featuring the artist herself, suitable for framing or affixing to the fridge with magnetic poetry. But wait, that's not all. You'll also receive access to the official "Scarlet's Walk" Web site, a DVD with a grainy travelogue-cum-music video, and a small rubber snake that, given Amos's peculiar lyrical obsessions, practically reeks of both religious and sexual innuendo. (Not suitable for children under 21.) But impressive as the package is, Amos's real product (i.e., the disc's songs) is the musical equivalent of aromatherapy: "Scarlet's Walk" is pleasant, wispy and mostly of questionable therapeutic value. For the hour and change you're under its spell, the album is passably engaging. Once you snap to, though, you'll likely have a hard time remembering any of its tunes. Those tend to evaporate on contact with your brainpan. That's not for lack of trying, however. Amos's lyrical ambition abounds, with the singer tackling pornography ("Amber Waves"), tragic love affairs ("A Sorta Fairytale," "Crazy"), and the mythology of America (just about every track here). Trouble is, the disc's relentless, snail's-pace cadence and barely modulated arrangements turn the tracks into a militantly mellow, new-agey morass, perfect for practicing the lotus pose or sipping camomile tea, but not much else. There are a few exceptions, of course. The vaguely sinister "Pancake" finds the former choir girl cooing seductively over the top of a snaky bass line that prods the track's Lilith-lite melody toward actual catchiness, while "Mrs. Jesus" offers some much-needed grit, with Amos abandoning her celestial octave scaling and briefly spelunking around in her lower register. And "Taxi Ride," a thick and wobbly slice of jazz-inflected radio pop, is guaranteed to liven up any moments of quiet reflection. But that's about it, which is a bit surprising. Amos at her best can deftly cross-wire the easy hooks of earlier piano-powered singers such as Carole King and Elton John with the avant edginess of a genuine weirdo like Kate Bush. This time out, though, she mostly sounds like George Winston with attitude. "Scarlet's Walk" is for true believers only.

Indeed, before she came out to perform this extra song the writer and warm-up fellow told us about the show having a bedtime story segment on Fridays and that this lullaby Tori was going to perform would be aired as that segment on SOME Friday. When I pressed one of the producer type guys in back for likely air dates both for the show proper and the lullaby as we were exiting the taping he told me each would be listed on their website. Friday showings of Last Call are 60 rather than 30 minutes, unless the reality rug has been yanked out from under me again. This makes tonight's show with Tori from 1:35-2:05am EDT and the Friday show on whatever date they air the lullaby from 1:35-2:35am. Corrections, anyone? I don't trust them getting the lullaby on their website 100% so *I* plan to tape Friday nights until they show the thing. Really, this is a goodie no one here would want to miss. I have an inner voice telling me it's not going to be on *this* Friday but I could be wrong. I've seen little of the program before and have no idea how much time typically separates a guest's regular appearance on air from their bedtime story segment. It was *highly* entertaining, as was when she blew the first take and broke into hysterical laughter. (She'd mispronounced a word.) Jon and Matt join her on this extra song, as well as on the version of Fairytale performed for the program tonight. It was taped in a different studio than Last Call usually tapes, and it was smaller. There were only 99 of us in the audience, of whom I'm sure 80 were serious Tori people. She was as comfortable as I'd ever seen her on television and the version of Fairytale she did was easily the most energetic and engaging one of the three band versions she did last week in NYC. And now, I get to figure out what to say to an old friend whose brother decided to check out on Monday. He'd been depressed for years but I didn't think he'd really do it after all this time. Very upsetting for the whole family, I'm sure.

Tori Amos: Wish You Were Here An American journey gooses the singer-songwriter's imagination. by Brian Ives When Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda hopped on their motorcycles in the 1969 movie Easy Rider, they went in search of America. But they didn't find it anywhere - or at least that's what the poster said. Following the harrowing events of September 11, Tori Amos took a similar journey. On a trek that included all 50 states, she discovered her seventh album Scarlet's Walk. On this 14-song pilgrimage, Tori converses with porn stars, has her plane hijacked, and does her best to avoid Las Vegas. Riding shotgun is her alter ego Scarlet, an altogether more mysterious character than Peter Fonda's Captain America. The singer and her fictitious associate travel light, packing only the musical essentials - piano trills, full throated vocals and the occasional heartbreaking tune. After such an expansive trip, you expect Tori to have more road tales than one disc could hold. She did. Chatting with VH1, she explained the inspiration behind her musical odyssey, how her devoted audience helped her get through last year's traumatic events, and how Robert Plant's eroticism made her see the devil. VH1: It's only been a year since your album of covers, Strange Little Girls. Why the quick release of Scarlet's Walk? Tori Amos: I haven't put out an album of original work in a long time. The seeds of Scarlet's Walk began when I was pregnant. It came in little segments; sometimes I'd get only eight bars [of music] at a time, but I stored them away. Then when we were on the road last year, at the beginning of September, the songs started coming quickly. VH1: How did September 11 inspire you to turn your attention to America? Amos: I began asking myself certain questions about how I saw America. My grandfather was part Cherokee. He related to America as a spirit. He would talk about her like she was a sister and a friend. So I've seen her like that since I was little. But as I got older, I started associating America with her politics. When the twins went down, that brought me back. I felt the loss of somebody I cared about. As I started traveling the country, I found that people started seeing America not as an object but as the soul of the land. [Watch Clip] VH1: What inspired the single "A Sorta Fairytale?" Amos: Scarlet's Walk starts with the song "Amber Waves," and "A Sorta Fairytale" is the second song. Scarlet has come back from being with her friend Amber Waves, a fading porn star. When you're in Los Angeles, you see these young gals that have just come to town, thinking, "Hey I'm going to do something with myself." But they go from ballet class to a lap-dance and then straight to video. They don't mean to get drawn in - it's [just meant to make] a little money on the side. I was having coffee with one of these gals a while ago. She looked at me and said, [whispers] "I'm doing despicable things right now somewhere in some boy's bedroom." I said, "We're having coffee. How are you doing that?" She said, "That's me. I'm really doing that and I'll always be doing that." [Porn is] not all beautiful airbrushed stuff. It's being defecated on and being abused as a woman. In a way, it's a metaphor for America. "Fairytale" is where I go off with the person I believe to be the love of my life. But we split up. The [relationship with the] love of your life should work, shouldn't it? The story is a sort of fairytale - why don't they stay together? [Watch Clip] VH1: On "Pancake," you sing "It seems in vogue to be a closet misogynist homophobe." What led you to that observation? Amos: "Pancake" is really about the abuse of power, whether by presidents or rock stars. There seems to be a right wing ideology held by some young hipsters - Jesse Helms in tattoos. This thinking has to find something to hate, whether it's a gay person, a woman, a different race or a different religion. It's so boring! But people get drawn in by it. VH1: Your concerts following September 11th were among the most cathartic shows you've ever played. Did you feel a rush to get back out on the road and see people again? Amos: People were vulnerable in a way that they haven't been since I've been playing, and there was a real responsibility to not lose it up there. We got so many emails from people saying, "Look, even if you sit up there and look stupid, we need a place to go." So we decided to stay on the road after 9-11 and kept the doors open. You had to be affected. You'd hear stories from strangers every time you turned around. I made relationships with people that I might not have made and that changed the way that I see things. VH1: People look to you like they do to Bruce Springsteen; they want more than just the music alone. Is it hard to concentrate onstage with that burden of expectation? Amos: No. At the end of the day, you're a musician and it's a privilege to play. After playing bars where people were spilling beer over the piano so many times, you value people sitting there and not saying, "Hey, after the show, honey..." You think, "Okay, I have a set list of 125 things I can play tonight. For the most part the crowd is going to be open." They like a good show. VH1: What do you find sexy? Amos: What is sexy to me is usually a man's wit or a woman's strength. Sexy is hard to define. For me, Annie Lennox is sexy. When I first saw her on MTV, it was such a defining moment for me. I saw a woman presented in a way that I hadn't seen before, with the red hair. I found her beautiful, very feminine but strong. I cocked my head and said, "This is another way to do this." VH1: You've always held up Robert Plant as an object of desire. Now that you know him, what would you say is sexy about him? Amos: Robert is sexy now because he has such a great sense of humor. He's also one of those people that takes the time to be a great listener. Who would have thought that? The first time I saw him, I was eight years old, looking at his picture. My father had been preaching to me: "gird your loins." I didn't know what loins were. Pork loin? I was holding this picture and hearing "Whole Lotta Love." I was moving my body and I went, "Oh, I know what my dad is talking about. This guy is making me think of the devil." It was heaven! And when I met him in person, he was heaven! [Watch Clip] VH1: Have any of your fans ever gotten too close? Amos: Yeah. That's when it gets to be sad, because you try and make it so that there can be an exchange [between artist and fan]. It's much more fun that way, but if it gets threatening, you have to draw the line somewhere. People can scare you. I know I've scared people before. You don't mean to, but all of us can be scary. VH1: Your fans really relate to you, but they don't seem like the types who would overstep bounds. Amos: I'm very lucky. Most of them are the type of people that help you out if you need a lift. But sometimes it's somebody outside of that. It might be somebody who thinks I'm against Christianity, which is ludicrous. I'm about people being able to believe in whatever they want to believe. Sometimes people misread things. With Strange Little Girls, fans of certain artists got a little bit confused and didn't think about what I was really doing. They took it personally. What I was doing was providing a woman's voice. You'd be surprised by the hatred that came back, which only made me more determined to make sure that voice was louder. VH1: Sometimes when you present an alternative view, people get upset. Amos: As an artist, it's not about making people comfortable. Before September 11 happened, there was a lot of malice against women and gays. If you're going to glamorize violence, then I'm coming after you! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 06 Nov 2002 16:15:59 -0500 From: dances with virgos Subject: chartattack review TORI AMOS Scarlet's Walk (Epic/Sony) Yes, Tori Amos is a certifiable kook, but damn if she doesn't make some beautiful music. The piano songstress's latest offering, Scarlet's Walk, is nominally a concept album about her rediscovering America post 9/11. But stripped of that artifice, this is Amos' most immediate work in years, a more introspective, melodic affair than her last few releases. It's an ambitious and expansive song cycle (perhaps a little too much so at a whopping 18 tracks) inspired by Amos' road trip through America last year. First single "A Sorta Fairytale" is the best Amos song in ages, harkening back to the melodic pop of her seminal Under the Pink album. But it's "I Can't See New York" that is the grand statement of this album; it starts off as a stark ballad and then takes off into a deep, dark epic. Understated production throughout puts the focus on Amos' velvet piano and rippling harmonies, and longtime collaborator Matt Chamberlain's gentle percussion adds just the right amount of colour to the lush tapestry of sound. This is late-night music, all melancholy and meditative. While one need not buy into the concept part of this album, it does say something about Amos' artistic vision.

It's just the way it goes. And then it sucks me in, and gives me orgasms no man could. I remember saying, when I heard a sorta fairytale, that it was crap pop music, and wtf?? I love the song now. I'm really glad they came out with the 6 songs before the album release. It let me try on the album for awhile, so that when I listened to the album, I was more receptive. My faves: Wednesday!!! I can't see New York strange mrs. jesus operation peter pan (is this the only song she's ever done solely with guitar?) crazy "And as soon as you have rearranged the mess in your head, He will show up looking sane, perfectly sane, If I know Crazy" Don't we all know someone like that? someone said that i can't see new york is just as, if not more, creepy than '97 bonnie and clyde. ummm, YES. it's amazing how the words are so moving, yet the music stays light and pretty. Has anyone a suggestion for the interpretation of "I know his/your lips are warm"? I think the woman on the plane (someone said that it sounds like that's where the voice is coming from, and i agree) is seeing the terrorist, and is realizing she is dying for his cause, and he is human, too, hence, the warm lips..

Could I be walking higher, Could I be right beside her? diana - --- Becka wrote: > > it can be tori, or anyone else.. but i'm looking for > a few bits of song, > that express remeberance of a person after death.. > cept this isn't a > person.. it's a kitty... ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 06 Nov 2002 20:04:04 -0500 From: "inmyhead.net user" Subject: Re: SW Discussion > Has anyone a suggestion for the interpretation of "I know > his/your lips are warm"? > I definately read this as the man/person she's leaving behind. she can't seem to find her way out, her way back to him. and i think he's (partly) the person she's addressing when she says "you said you would find me here - you said you would find me even in death" questioning why, bringing up the belief that love will see them through it all - but in the reality of the plane crash situation, her love is no where to be found - she's alone. and she's dying, she knows this, leaving him behind, and she can't bear/understand this. it's heartbreaking. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 17:10:25 -0800 From: "h." Subject: Re: SW Discussion in the final act of romeo and juliet, juliet kisses romeo's lips hoping to taste the poison he took and die herself, but instead she is even more grief stricken to find his lips are warm, meaning she found him only moments after he died. (i believe the line is "thy lips are warm!") i don't know what that has to do with ICSNY, but when i hear that line, it immediately reminds me of that scene in romeo and juliet. :) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 17:16:13 -0800 From: Beth Winegarner Subject: TORI AMOS: On "Last Call," On Tour, In "Scarlet's Web," And More > TORI FANS > > Read on for the latest news on Tori including: > + LOOK FOR TORI ON "LAST CALL" TONIGHT, 11/6 > + TORI'S FALL TOUR BEGINS TOMORROW > + SCARLET'S WEB AWAITS YOU..... > + WIN TORI'S NEW DISC AND A YEAR OF FREE CD's > + RAINN AUCTION: BID ON PREMIUM TIX AND A PERSONAL MEETING WITH TORI > __________________________________________________ > > + LOOK FOR TORI ON "LAST CALL" TONIGHT, 11/6! > Tori appears on "Last Call With Carson Daly" TONIGHT -- Wednesday November 6 -- at 1:35 AM on NBC (this is technically Thursday morning, but be sure and tune in tonight!
