      Seeing her in person is unbelievable the best show I've ever seen of hers was when she played a solo performance. She had two baby Grands on stage and straddle the piano bench and played them both
      It was magnificent and unbelievable

    There is nothing feminine about remembering happy memories that bring you to tears. There is nothing feminine about overwhelming emotions.
    I am not feminine because this song is beautiful and makes me want to cry. I want to cry because Tori Amos brings out emotions I didn't know could be felt.

    I fell in love with this woman 2-3 years ago... Her voice, her life in music, her way to tell stories,and her covers are so deep and personal... She had such a deep connection with the music and her piano that she can find new meanings in this songs... Once she covered Britney Spears's "Baby one more time" and she turn that pop song into a music experience!! Tori is not human... she is god=)

    Losing my religion
    I thought that I heard you laughing
    I thought that I heard you sing
    I think I thought I saw you try
    Consider this
    Consider the lenghts that I would go to
    A slip that brought me
    To my knees
    And I don't know if I can do it
    Oh no, I've said too much
    I set it up
    I thought that I heard you laughing
    I thought that I heard you sing
    Life is bigger
    Bigger than you
    And you are not me
    The lengths that i would go through
    Oh I've said too much
    I set it up
    I think I saw you try
    It's me, me in the corner
    Loosing my religion
    Trying to keep an eye on you
    And I don't know if I can do it
    Oh no, I've said too much
    I set it up
    Thought that I heard you laughing
    Thought that i heard you sing
    Loosing my religion
    It's me. It's me.

    If you see Higher Learning, and this song was of course on the soundtrack, it adds such even more meaning. This and (was it just called "Butterfly"? Arrgh my stuff is all packed away in boxes as i live out of a suitcase - TY for YT!) were just beautiful and terribly sad. The lady knows how to reach down and pull out every emotion - and then had the honesty to bring it to us. There's no one like Tori. She is definitely so very special.

      Jonathan Bennett I have come to the conclusion she might have been abused or disillusion with Christianity for a very dark reason many of her songs have this recurrent theme. She is lovely talented but you can sense her sad dark spirit intertwined in them.

    This is superbly Tori doing her 1 of a kind co'vers ... and she is so damn good at interpreting ALMOST ANY OTHER MUSIC and making it her own! She is the incarnation of Picasso's famous quote, "A good artist copies...a GREAT artist, STEALS.' CUZ if u didn't know the original version, you'd swear the genus of Tori 's covers sprang straight outta her tousled, red-curl covered head. This piece is especially moving and packed emotionally...not unlike the unplugged version of 10,000 maniacs Noah's Dove. Voice and piano really are more powerful than The force of a full orchestra or even Slayer!

I finally decided that even with all your talent, you were the most depressed person on the face of the earth. This would be a song that would draw you, for sure. I guess you're good to listen too like once every 10 years or something, otherwise it's too sad.

    Ying and Yang kinda like Johnny & Trent with "Hurt"
