MESSAGE: Tori says of this song "How am I alive to tell you this tale when he was ready to slice me up? In the song I say it was 'Me and a Gun' but it wasn't a gun. It was a knife he had. And the idea was to take me to his friends and cut me up, and he kept telling me that, for hours. And if he hadn't needed more drugs I would have been just one more news report, where you see the parents grieving for their daughter".

YT keeps deleting my comments where I listed helplines and gave further thoughts.
Break The Silence.
Yes, Tori has many 'happy' songs and when the STL's open again, I promise you'll get to hear one.
#QcumberSquad #ToriAmos #BreakTheSilence - Fil, I'm off back to the study.
Frank you are a walking angel on this earth ..truly mean that x

Tori co-founded RAIIN, a rape survivor network. You can donate to it...
It took her 10 years to get to this place. She saw Thelma & Louise in the theater and realized she needed to deal with what happened to her. She started therapy & sang this song EVERY NIGHT on the Little Earthquakes tour.
Tori is brilliant & has been my favorite artist since 1994. I was in 10th grade & she changed my life. If you venture into the fan community you will hear that she saved lives. Many, many lives. Not only is she talented & beautiful, she is wise & infinitely kind & generous.
She saved me in high school too. 9tb and 10th. Literally. Solidarity w you toriphile...♥️
This song was almost her CPT
EWF ❤
I've a rape victim and I was lucky enough to see Tori sing this song live. I couldn't stop sobbing along with quite a few other woman and men in the crowd.
I know from my what happened to me I thought the most sublime, insane, things just to distract myself from what was happening to me.
You think of lollipops you never tried,the boy you wish you told you had a crush on, do all the things you needed/wanted to do but never did.
It's a profound and deeply saddening and painful song.
This is one of the most chilling things I have ever heard. That took so much strength I had chills through the whole thing. I agree it had to be done without instruments other than her voice.
Notice she's wearing a red 'slinky' top when she sings this. She's a prodigy and goddess. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this reactions.
Tori Amos is simply one of the best songwriters ever, often painful, sometimes funny or twisted, this song has always haunted me when I hear it, she has so much angst and pain here. Tori never fails to get the emotions out whether it is the words, how she sings, or the way she plays, she tortures her piano or harpsicord if that is how the song demands, she has written lighter songs but the music industry tries to stifle her
This song is one of many Tori songs that changed my life but this one is the one that touches me deep in my soul as a survivor of DV and SA.
Not only is this so emotional, but holy moly, she's maintaining perfect pitch throughout, which I can't even comprehend. I didn't even realize there was Tori stuff on YT, and I haven't heard or seen her in YEARS, but she's been a favorite since Little Earthquakes came out. I'm so excited to check out more of her performances online now! I got to see her a few times in the 90s, and she's an amazing performer.
Tori Amos is an incredible artist and has a huge catalog of amazing work. This was definitely a super dark place to start with her but I loved your analysis of the song. Hope to see you do more reactions to her.
The thing that always amazes me about this performance is that there wasn’t a peep coming from the audience. It was just her voice. You couldn’t hear anything else. I’ve seen Tori 3 times and she can just captivate an audience
She's in my top 5 favorite female vocalists. I first heard her on her debut album Little Earthquakes, imo it doesn't have a bad song on it.
She's a child prodigy, learning piano on her own starting at 2 years old and composing her own music at 3. She also experiences chromesthesia, which is basically seeing sound. Certain sounds cause those affected to see patterns of color and light.
Agree 100% Little Earthquakes is incredible!!!
Little Earthquakes changed my life when I heard it at 14 years old.
I've had her album Boys for Pele on repeat for decades now.
Her or Amy Lee are the best. Ann Wilson could be in the conversation!
@@trumphatesyou Johnette Napolitano from Concrete Blonde and Sinead O'Connor are some of my others. I think a lot depends on what type of music people like. There are great female vocalists who make music that isn't in a genre etc that I particularly enjoy, so they wouldn't make my list.
seeing her perform this live is beyond words. that courage and need for personal growth is monumentally palpable. I've seen it acapella and again with her band in 2007. that 2007 version in Chicago was otherwordly.
Tori Amos August 22, 1963 (age 59 years), Newton, North Carolina, United States, is an American singer-songwriter and pianist. She is a classically trained musician with a mezzo-soprano vocal range.
A few more Fun Facts: Tori Amos started playing piano at the age of 2, she said she has a form of synesthesia, she sees musical compositions as structures of light in her head. By the age of 3 she could replay pieces of music after one listen, she was composing her own music at 4 years old. She's the youngest person to ever receive a full scholarship at the Peabody School of Music at Johns Hopkins at the age of 5. She was then kicked out that program at the age of 11 for what she called "musical insubordination", she refused to learn to read sheet music and she refused the worship of dead classical composers, she preferred contemporary rock music. Her father, a Methodist minister, tried to find places for her to perform live for an audience, but the only places that accepted her were gay clubs and bars around the Washington, D.C. area. Her first band after she signed to Atlantic records, Y Kan't Tori Read (an inside joke about her unwillingness to learn to read music) was a synth/metal/pop group, but it was a dismal failure. Little Earthquakes was really her coming out of that experience and making a last ditch effort to be completely herself and not what the record company thought she should be, and the rest is history.
@Wungolioth I'll add in a couple more for you guys. Her real name is Myra Ellen Amos and she actually was on the Kelloggs Cornflakes ad box in her teens, hence her later naming a song 'The Cornflake Girl'.
she is an angel on earth...tori has helped more fans than can ever be explained. from the depths of hell she survived. ive seen tori 3 times live and each time you can hear a pin drop when she played it
Absolutely spot on. GREAT reaction brother.
Man whist sounding so beautiful this broke my heart ..couldn't stop crying what a brave courageous remarkable young lady .. we said wow the same time at the end ..totally agree that silence was chilling ..Frank is a special person indeed ..this is something that needs to be heard ..off to sub ..what a stunning voice ..Fil it's an honour to be here with special you and your special cucumbers thanku so much love an God bless always x
This song got me through a dark time. Hell tori got me through some dark times. She will always be my favorite artist of all time.
I've heard her do this song several times, the intensity with which it hits on the studio recording is dwarfed by its power live. I remember at the State Theater in Cleveland, OH, with a thunderstorm raging outside.
Wow you went way back for this one!!! Thank you so much for your reaction and introducing Tori to a new generation❤️
I remember crying to this song when I was a teenager. I was obsessed with Tori, I had forgotten how beautiful her voice is.
I love her since when I kid, and I will always love her.
Her presentation like a theatrical funeral.. I love this
I listened to Tori Amos when she became famous. She is fearless. She sings about personal experiences and takes you with her. I hope that younger people listen to her songs because what she went through, these things are still happening.
Little earthquakes is the most profound album of my life. This song definitely gives you a visceral response. Love her and her strength. All her songs for me invoke a different emotion and feel deeply personal for the listener as well. A kind of fun is she's your cocaine. It's also kind of savage too.
Thank you so much for a Tori reaction, hope to see more of her 💗 💫
Tori co -founded RAINN, look them up.
Beautiful understanding
Yes , thank you , your thoughts on this are wonderful, I lived in this album of hers for so long. She's brilliant , I subscribed because I love your thought on this song.
Les larmes qui coulent c'est notre coeur qu'elle arrache
All her albums are fantastic! My favorites are "Little Earthquakes" and "Under The Pink"
How does this possibly not affect a human with a heart??? My God, she is above this world.
More Tori!!!
I know how she felt. Most of the women I know have lived through something like this.
I love how she can express such the horrible human experience in a beautiful way.
Toris fans are pretty diehard. This song, whenever she performs it, you don't hear a sound at all. No one shifts in their seat or even coughs. She pulls you into every performamce.
Thank you for taking time to understand where she was coming from. She's truly extraordinary, a brilliant artist-my favorite, leaps and bounds beyond anyone else except Kate Bush, who is similarly talented but less proficient.
Wow I don’t know if he’s very observant or what… but as a molestation survivor (at a very young age) I hadn’t thought about my “ticks” as an indicator. I don’t know why this resonated so strongly with me.
Tori Amos was my savior since this album came out… way before Twenty One Pilots which is interesting because both have to do with mental health. A deep dive into her music would be nice. So many can relate to her experience(s). Please continue with her.
There are times I know you have simply no idea what you are about to hear. Knowing you... it is almost like watching a car crash in slow motion. You are such an engaging reactor.
You sound like a really good person.
Most hardest song to hear.
Well Fancy That by Fun Boy Three and The Boiler by The Specials AKA are just as if not more.
i love her! North Carolina treasure!
Its pronounced Montreur and it is a principality in Switzerland where a world famous Jazz festival is held.
Those ticks you speak of are how just about all women mask and unmask accidentally every day it is exhausting
I want more!
Her parents must have been so scared and desperate when they heard about what happened.
I love Happy Phantom. I also love Winter.
Powerful reaction to an even more powerful song. The only thing about your reaction that set me off a bit was how you sort of denied her her truth of her experience when at the start she said/sang "You can laugh..." You blurted out "Laugh? Why would anyone laugh at that? " and paused it. To your credit, you then re-started it by going back five seconds, so you would get the context. Still, when she continued with "...it's kinda funny" you again blurted out "No it's not!" As she then made clear, she was meaning "funny/odd" because of the apparent randomness of the thought of "But I haven't seen Barbados, so I must get out of this" (As opposed to "I want to see my family, so I must get out of this," for ex.--the way i see it anyhow) I also think she says that as a device to sort of make the listener feel a bit more at ease--despite, as you rightly point out, her ALSO saying very uncomfortable things. And whether "So I must get out of this" refers to her enduring it without struggling or physically fighting back is unclear--I would say the former, though. So yeah, i think you sort of were too impatient to "answer for her" and at the same time it kinda looked like you were virtue-signaling ("Hey everyone, hear me affirm that rape isn't funny! Didja hear that?") Than again this IS a reaction channel, and THAT's what you were doing, lol! To say she was brave to do this is an understatement. Especially when you realize this was from 1992, when , really, rape was still not talked about all that often, still had some stigma attached to the victim, sadly. Tori was brave beyond words to sing this in public, on camera. And that most profound expression of Art: Creating Truth and Beauty out of Suffering.
Oh, you have no idea! Wait till you hear her play piano. Crucify Live would be the one.
I love Tori. I think her songs Winter, and Happy Phantom, 1000 Oceans....all of her stuff is cool.
This song is haunting. This is so important a song right now. I hate that it's timeless. Women are so misused by predatory men. We are worth more than this. And people are judgemental about when women report or gain the courage to tell. Or young girls sent to prison or made to pay the sex traffickers family , the one they killed 150,000 dollars. It's so upsetting. So why escaping them seems like freedom in their mind we are often criminalized in the actions. Thanks for posting this.
Little earthquakes is one of the best albums of the 80s
1990’s
@@alishaharper5860 lol I know, fat fingers 🤣
Please please react to her live performance of her greatest song "Winter"..The one she wears a blue dress.. You wont regret it. Maybe get some tissues ready..🥲🤍 Pls Man
This was a very uncomfortable feeling watching it in person, just an explainable experience
Same album: Happy Phantom
Sheesh - men really find this revelationary and intense? And genuinely don't just feel like this as background noise to 90% of their lives? Must be nice.
now go listen to tori amos "song for eric" live our angel on earth has the voice of heaven
Every person that has been sexually assaulted can relate to every aspect of this - and that’s why Tori still sells out arenas
"Exile in Guyville" Liz Phair
here is link to view toris voice is chilling and pure heaven ua-cam.com/video/6mwVKbtKfik/v-deo.html
I think the venue is in Canada.
No, it was filmen at the Montreux Jazz Festival, which is in Montreux, Switzerland. It’s from the double-disc BluRay release “Tori Amos Live at Montreux 1991/92” which feature Tori’s full sets at the festival in 1991 and 1992. This performance is from the 1992 show. The ‘91 show is the earliest recorded performance of songs from Little Earthquakes (which wouldn’t be released for another 6 months when she performed at the festival), and probably one of the first concert performances she ever did of those songs.
TY for making yourself vulnerable enough to take this on.
