I've loved Tori ever since I heard her debut single Silent All These Years in 1991.
Pretty good year
Little Earthquakes
God!
Siren from great expectations soundtrack
Little Earthquakes is a brilliant album, her vocal range is amazing, her voice just evokes so many emotions, Tori Amos is class .
Words cannot express the beauty contained in this song.
+Francisco Partida That's what a song is. Words and music. The videos just ruin the experience. There was a time when people would purchase something called a "Hi Fi system" and just sit and listen to music. It was magic, and it's all but gone now in today's world. Sad.
+Rusty Z I cannot put it any better.
Rusty Z not tonight Josephine torri. Amos
Absolutely
Exactly!
Even after all these years....Eternal!
OUTSTANDING song, quite possibly one of the loveliest ballads ever written.
Just discovered her today and I already love her.
best discovery for life
It just happened the same to me this week, only regret is not having heard her sooner!
@@isabelpalomares9861 You're in for a ride :)
Wait till you see her live. It's truly magical.
You will never let go..Found out about her in the 9th grade and I am now 37..Love her
I can feel the distance getting close.. powerful line
The Manic Bunny Very.
Indeed!
This is the Tori Amos that I will forever love!
This woman's music is supernatural.
Yes, it is. Imagine if she never came along, we would miss out on her loveliness songs and piano playing.
She has abilities some would consider unatural
In a bad way
She's a faery ❤️🧚💞😉
I'll never forget the time I met her. I couldn't speak at first. I just blurted out how much I adored her. I got a big hug. I love you Tori, you're magnificent 🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️
No other voice like hers. Beautiful
Still listening to this song in 2020, never gets old.
2021. Coming out the far side of the COVID epidemic, hopefully.
Would you call yourself a Tori Amos expert? I am trynna find a song I cannot find by her.
@@thewrathofgodandallhisfury4870 what are looking for
@@oopsiedaisy1320 I really don't know the lyrics but I can hum it and give you the melody but given that there's no way to do that in the comments section, I'll try my best to get what I believe are the lyrics. Here it goes: ...your stinger, let me ahh, ahh, ahhh, your body is over me, like I love you, ooohhh, ooooohhhhh...
One of the best albums of all time, in my opinion.
This song wrecks me every time I hear it. Perfection.
Tori is an incredible musician and artist. Amazing songs.
quite possibly one of her most beautiful ballads, still feels as sweet and tender as when i first heard it,
I remember first hearing this I was dating this one girl , sweet
China
All the way to New York
I can feel the distance getting close
You're right next to me
But I need an airplane
I can feel the distance as you breathe
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw the future
Together you just look away in the distance
China decorates our table
Funny how the cracks don't seem to show
Pour the wine dear
You say we'll take a holiday
But we never can agree on where to go
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw the future
Together you just look away in the distance
China all the way to New York
Maybe you got lost in Mexico
You're right next to me
I think that you can hear me
Funny how the distance
Learns to grow
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw the future
Together you just look away in the distance
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance getting close
She still sings with such feeling emotion and passion. I Love her....... She is a one of a kind talent. A true artist
Tori Amos is one of my favorite artists. Her creativity is incredible. She is also a beautiful woman.
Shes gorgeous looks like my girlfriend....
Happy 59th Birthday 🎂🎂🎂 to Tori Amos Today!!!!!
What out of this world creativity! Gorgeous Tori, playing a stone piano. So elegant! I wish more of today's modern videos could take a lesson and incorporate calm, still beauty in its images, illuminating spaces within the human soul... Much more than relying on flash and choppy editing.
One of the profoundly inspired songs from that time. A pearl
This has to be one of the most beautiful songs I've heard from her. So meaningful, evocative.
The definition of sublime
I just moved to China to teach English...but I listened to this song for many years...even more powerful now. love you Tori
I still love this song.
Tori has always been wonderful and real I really relate on similar situations....
One of my all time favorite songs ever! So beautiful and full of emotion it makes me cry each time I listen to it!
It makes me cry too. I love Tori and have for years. I just can't seem to get into her new stuff tho
Anyone else notice a very important verse of the song is missing in this version, "China decorates or table, funny how the cracks don't seem to show. Pour the wine dear; you say week take a holiday, but we never can agree on where to go..."
Yeah most of the early videos have a radio edit for time. Same in 'Winter' my favorite verse was cut.
¡lolo! right, table and drinks... xinese r heavy drinkers and love to invite foreigners for drinks, right? om mari pe mehung/.//¿? //pro di onu sos philosophies¿?
shepdog069 really
Every time i go to the beach i lift up rocks hoping to find a Tori .. no luck so far :/
daveyharsh 😂
Have you tried any close beach near China? Maybe.....
daveyharsh Goof 😂
weird loi
Keep trying
Music so painfully beautiful.
Maybe not her best known song but certainly one of my favorites. So lonely & heartbreaking
@ljc3484 Tori Amos China is one of my personal favorite song
i have that exact camouflage rocks spandex bodysuit
yap The print looks more like the broken pieces......
+yap lol
Dont we all
Hard to believe it came out all those years ago. It has not lost any of its effect.
Always loved this beautiful song. I can feel the distance as you breathe always gets to me 🥹
2:36 Incredible! she even plays the piano with the rocks :D
My favorite performance of this tune is from PBS Soundstage circa 2003. Gorgeous. A+
The song has won in depht and beauty over the years. Amazing and beautiful.
eternally greatest singer , composer , artist ... love you Tori

Beautifully heartbreaking. For both people in the song.
@melodiefrances3898 Tori Amos China is one of my personal favorite song
Magnificant Tori Amos...one and only!
It used to be my top favourite song by Tori Amos back in 1992 and later on... Well, maybe it is still this one.... It made me dream so much for so long... I've always loved John Philip Shenale's string orchestrations too. A real pity she didn't worked with him on her latest (and great) album. He would have enhanced most of those splendid songs.
High school. Vibes. O how I miss you 90's
Happy 60th Birthday 🎂 Tori Amos!!!!!
I love the cinematography of this video.
Filmed on the Cornish coast, stunningly beautiful scenery
I remember listening to this song when i was 15 (never been in love or even had a bf) and absolutely loving it. Now in my 30s i REALLY understand the lyrics ,sadly 😂
Lovely Song! Love from China 👍❤️
EZ Gao a
I just learned how to play China last night. She came to me..and each time she appeared ...she revealed a little bit more of herself to me..each time. So when i sit down at my piano..my keyboard..lol...she's much much bigger than she looks. She has the depth of a concert piano🎹 i found her at a thrift store for 5 dollars...yeah..five bucks..crazy..but..a blessing to me...because she had a crack..which makes her even more beautiful and so..we take care of one another..It's always a different conversation. China is..so very lovely..and delicate..quiet..yet so very quietly profound...and so...China saved my life last night..and for this..i am eternally thankful🌺i love you China✨
Tori...you always have been ..and forever will be my muse..my teacher..the mirror i gaze into back into myself..my heart💖..my friend❤
I love you Tori🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Really Incredible !
Happy new year 2024, we need a better one ...

"China"
Released: January 20, 1992
[Verse 1]
China, all the way to New York
I can feel the distance getting close
You're right next to me, but I need an airplane
I can feel the distance as you breathe
[Chorus]
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the Great Wall around you?
In your eyes I saw a future together
Oh, you just look away in the distance
[Verse 2]
China decorates our table
Funny how the cracks don't seem to show
Pour the wine, dear, you say we'll take a holiday
But we never can agree on where to go
[Chorus]
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the Great Wall around you?
In your eyes I saw a future together
Oh, you just look away in the distance
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
China all the way to New York
Maybe you got lost in Mexico
You're right next to me, I think that you can hear me
Funny how the distance learns to grow
[Chorus]
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the Great Wall around you?
[Outro]
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance getting close

Album LITTLE EARTHQUAKES (1992)
This song continues sounds beautiful... Tori.... The best...
I didn't know there was a video for this song
Such a beautiful voice.
Brings back sweet memories of Muhlenberg College, PA in early '90's
A dry stone wall piano. I have got to have that in my garden, then I can pretend I know how to play one. :-)
Love the rock piano, and the cairn that turns into a gown that has her trapped.
It shoud be a crime that this song has so little likes.
Thomas Locke i agree
People would rather watch and listen to garbage...just consider yourself blessed to have discovered this beautiful work of art...
TORI AMOS - LITTLE EARTHQUAKES
Tori Amos (born Myra Ellen Amos; August 22, 1963) is an American singer-songwriter and pianist. She is a classically trained musician with a mezzo-soprano vocal range. Having already begun composing instrumental pieces on piano, Amos won a full scholarship to the Peabody Institute at Johns Hopkins University at the age of five, the youngest person ever to have been admitted. She had to leave at the age of eleven when her scholarship was discontinued for what Rolling Stone described as "musical insubordination". Amos was the lead singer of the short-lived 1980s pop group Y Kant Tori Read before achieving her breakthrough as a solo artist in the early 1990s. Her songs focus on a broad range of topics, including sexuality, feminism, politics, and religion. Her charting singles include "Crucify", "Silent All These Years", "God", "Cornflake Girl", "Caught a Lite Sneeze", "Professional Widow", "Spark", "1000 Oceans", "Flavor" and "A Sorta Fairytale", her most commercially successful single in the U.S. to date. Amos has received five MTV VMA nominations and eight Grammy Award nominations, and won an Echo Klassik award for her Night of Hunters classical crossover album. She is listed on VH1's 1999 "100 Greatest Women of Rock and Roll" at number 71. ❤️💯‼️
And I have the great honor of having in my discography two CD-albums by this talented artist, LITTLE EARTHQUAKES (1992) and UNDER THE PINK (1994). ❤️💯‼️
Little Earthquakes is the debut solo album by the American singer-songwriter Tori Amos, featuring the singles "Silent All These Years", "China", "Winter" and "Crucify". After Atlantic Records rejected the first version of the album, Amos began working on a second version with her then-boyfriend Eric Rosse. The album was first released in the UK on January 6, 1992, where it peaked at number 14 in the charts. It was well received by critics and listeners. In the US, the album reached the top 60 of the Billboard 200. It is frequently regarded as one of the greatest albums of all time; it was voted number 73 in Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums 3rd Edition (2000) and ranked number 233 on Rolling Stone's 500 greatest albums of all time. UK Albums (OCC) 14, US Billboard 200 54, United Kingdom (BPI) Gold 100,000, United States (RIAA) 2× Platinum 2,000,000, Worldwide +3,000,000 copies. ❤️💯‼️

I love the piano
China todo el camino a Nueva York
Puedo sentir que la distancia se acerca
Estás a mi lado pero necesito un avión
Puedo sentir la distancia mientras respiras
A veces creo que quieres que te toque
¿Cómo puedo cuando construyes la gran muralla a tu alrededor?
En tus ojos vi un futuro juntos
Simplemente miras lejos en la distancia
China decora nuestra mesa
Es curioso cómo las grietas no parecen mostrar
Vierta el vino querido, diga que tomaremos unas vacaciones
Pero nunca podemos ponernos de acuerdo sobre a dónde ir. A veces creo que quieres que te toque.
¿Pero cómo puedo cuando construyes la gran muralla a tu alrededor?
En tus ojos vi un futuro juntos
Simplemente miras lejos en la distancia
China todo el camino a Nueva York
Quizás te perdiste en México
Como estás junto a mí, creo que me puedes oír Es curioso cómo la distancia aprende a crecer
A veces creo que quieres que te toque
¿Cómo puedo cuando construyes la gran muralla a tu alrededor?
Puedo sentir la distancia
Puedo sentir la distancia
Puedo sentir que la distancia se acerca
I loaned this album to someone who said it was a trancedencing experience!
Amazing,❤
China, a name evokes so many mixed emotions.
Beautiful..nothing else to say.
