    ABOUT…
    I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
    Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

    Thank you dearly for this special shoutout, she's truly otherworldly both as an artist and as a human ❤️

So all my gratitude to Amber as well for making such a beloved request ❤️ And of course to fantastic Rebecca, I love how you got lost through her vocal flows at the beginning :')

      I think what your referring to is a musical term I just discovered called Rubato. I listened to her do this since I discovered her in the 90's, It's what caught my ear's attention back then, I played bass then and music was supposed to be perfect, tight, timed, theory, yada yada, She teased the boundaries and honestly 30 years later she is probably the most talented musician of this time.

    I *ADORE* this anomaly of an artist and a woman. Inimitable. You can literally *feel* how her distinctive vocals and lyrics are just *propelled* from this unreachable place for most, a place that seems to belie even her own physicalities at times... It's almost as if she's in a trance-like state, like this glorious shamen serving as conduit between alternate realities. I know I sound nuts, but it always seems, to me, as if she's honestly channeling her fascinatingly distinctive sound from some far off realm....one not visible to us "mere mortals". Heh, I wish I lived there...
    Her energy is so loveable and endearing, too. She seems genuinely humble, lovely, yet forever loyal to her own specific truths.
    She's up there with Bjork and Kate Bush for unadulterated, unapologetically unique works of indefinable music. Personally, she's my all time fave... She just speaks to me, that's the best way I can explain it. She's otherworldly, yet so much more than the confines carried by any inadequate label, descriptive, or definition could ever touch.
    P.S. Your impressions of her are pretty awesome! You obviously have a hell of an ear.

    You don't only form sound and sing from your larynx alone. You sing, form sound, and shape the quality of oscillation, through your nose and down through your skull bone as well. The skull provides the acoustics of sound hence your demonstration of the word "Closer". Her nose is as important as her throat because she does it correct and beautifully.

  • @razrv3lc

    Tori always gets called a knockoff Kate Bush but I really think her music is way more similar to 90s Sarah McLachlan. If you look at Sarah's first three or four albums, the style is shockingly similar to Tori's music. Ice from Sarah McLachlan's 3rd album (not Ice Cream but Ice) sounds like it could be a Tori song.
    I believe they both came into popularity right around the same time in the early 90s too. Both are definitely Kate Bush influenced for sure but I think those two are more similar to each other than either are to Kate.

    I love that honesty in singing that you lose in women's pop and r&b that are so cookie cutter copying each other or utilising autotune crap. Give me alt-singers such as Tori Amos, Alison Goldfrapp and Elizabeth Fraser (former Cocteau Twins) any day.

    I wept through most of this video.
    I've never seen this particular live piece by Tori, but I have seen others...what I didn't remember about her performance technique is how she contorts herself as she plays and sings, as though she's *not* the one in control of the music, but rather she's been possessed by it, that the music is using *her* as its instrument. I'm reminded, for a geeky reference, of Shmendrick the Magician of "The Last Unicorn"; it's as though Tori says "MUSIC, DO AS YOU WILL" and then has to live with the results. Her performances give the impression of a form of ecstatic torture and I have trouble imagining anyone not being moved by it.

    Too good... Ahead of her time despite the time. With that being said, as a Nine Inch Nails fan, I couldn’t help but notice her using “Pretty Hate Machine” in this song’s lyrics.

  • @beebee242

    Yes you caught her talk, her musical accent. It’s her very own lingo and pronunciation. I love it.

    Just an FYI she has TMJ and has had it for YEARS. It comes out in her singing.
    She was also not drumming. If I remember correctly she played 2 seperate keyed instruments in this song. She also plays most instruments in her songs, herself.

    I met Tori at a radio contest thing in the 90's. I love her voice and that piano, she asked me if I would like her to play a specific song.....I just blurted out, I don't care what you sing, I'll love it no matter what. She played famous blue raincoat........it was and still is my fav song from her...next to have a merry little christmas.

    She was a child piano prodigy. At the age of five, she was accepted to the Peabody Conservatory of Music (the youngest person of either sex EVER) yet was thrown out at age 11 because she refused to read sheet music. They F'd up BIG TIME!
    React to WINTER from the album Little Earthquakes (her first real album). Little Earthquakes and Under the Pink are the two best female solo albums of the 90's. If you don't know them LISTEN IMMEDIATELY. "Silent all these Years", Tear in Your Hand", "Crucify", "Cornflake Girl", "Crucify", Winter", "Girl", "Happy Phantom", "Past the Mission" - backing vocals sung by Trent Reznor from NIN, "Pretty Good Year", "God" "Yes Anastasia" to name but a few CLASSICS on the two albums.
    Winter is about her father. It's so beautiful: ua-cam.com/video/_PDlGUdDF8Y/v-deo.html

    I'm not a singer, but I really enjoyed his. Tori got me through some tough tough times, so I learned about her playing and musical structure and whatnot, but this was fun.... sometimes I forget it's not just magic in her voice, but her voice is an instrument. Thanks.

  • @jharris3759

    She’s the youngest student ever accepted to the Peabody Music Conservatory (at five years old... for piano). She’s a great songwriter and singer on top of all of that. Please react to “Mother” (about getting married) ua-cam.com/video/e3nOBTRMY6U/v-deo.html, and Winter (about her father). ua-cam.com/video/jmk0AVNRBIY/v-deo.html

    I think Tori Amos is Rebecca with red hair dye....haha!
    I saw Tori play at a Festival by accident, I just followed a crowd of ladies into a big tent to get a change from the other stage gigs full of blokes and rock bands!
    She played her first 2 or 3 songs on piano alone almost in darkness with her back to the crowd. I don't know many of her songs but was spellbound by her amazing vocals.

  • @tm87887

    Yess she was inspired by Kate Bush, Joni Mitchell, Nina Simone... just to name a few of her inspirations I know she also loves classic rock

  • @DavidTateVA
    @DavidTateVA 2 роки тому

    FWIW, while I can imagine that Tori was influenced and inspired by Kate Bush over the years, Tori already had that distinctive style and vocal manner and awesome control in 1980, before she was called "Tori" and anyone outside the DC area had ever heard of her.

    It took me a couple of minutes in the song to realize there was no music playing lol. Then of course started the piano.
    God I love her.
    I don't know how/why, but I completely forgot about her. Last time I heard anything from her was probably way over a decade ago.

    Tori saved my life in the 90's, growing up as a closeted trans woman in rural America. I was 14 in 1994 and I'd never heard of her, then a friend asked if I'd like to join him and his parents for a concert, and somehow her music took away some of my dysphoria!

    @lornagracepoole Рік тому

    Sorry but I thought this was a really bad analysis of an amazing performance! She's not choosing to put on any of those stylistic things that you're trying to copy... She’s singing in her true authentic voice and from the heart- When you sing from the heart, the voice does what it wants and sounds good!

  • @lesflynn4455

    Not a jot of autotunes in there. Tori was and is an amazing artist , and seems to be gathering new fans now. Which is grand. Go down the rabbit hole of Little Earthquakes. It will suck you in.
