Tori Amos (part 6) - Strange little girls
Album # 6 is a concept and cover album, in which Tori sings 12 songs originally written & sang by men, reinterpreted to a woman’s point of view. As such, one may like the original better over Tori’s, or the other way around… let’s see one by one what I have to say.

Tori Amos - (part 3) - Boys for pele
Album # 3, ''Boys for Pele''
which my wife thought I’d hate… Well, I liked.... ***roll drums*** 13 out of 18
songs, a score neither of us imagined.
Here, I prefer to display the
back cover.
Tori Amos - (part 2) - Under the Pink
Album # 2 ''Under
the pink''.
A) I loved all 12 songs on it, tho I liked less ''the waitress'' (rated 8) ; ''past the mission'' & ''Cornflake girl'' (rated 7), ALL the other ones I really liked and scored them... 10/10 !
total score of ''under the pink'' 100% of the songs are loved, total score 112/120 = 93.3%

Tori Amos - (part 1) - Little Earthquakes
The first song I heard was
Crucify, and… I just wasn’t ready for this acquired taste! Indeed, her voice
blended with a piano didn’t appeal to me, back in the 1990’s. I never tried to
listen to her again until I married a Toriphile…
My wife’s an Ears with feet, a
Tori Amos fan, who was shocked to hear my dislike. Knowing that I liked some
1980’s music, she came up with the idea to introduce me to ‘’Y kant Tori
read’’, which I liked and helped push me to try the rest of her career. For the
past 15 or so months, I started listening to the cd’s in chronological order
and learned to love Crucify, the very song which had made me wince, and expand
from 1 song to several, and very gradually liking 2 songs per album to liking a
majority.
