be trying to market and make money off of every song
she has written about her miscarriages, rape, and abuse?
Tori Amos has made more money off talking about her dead babies, being raped, and being abused in her songs then anyone else in the world. None of you find that disgusting?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 336069
many females can relate with her for they have gone through similar situations in their very own lives
singing about rape, abuse and miscarriages is like therapy to many, getting it out in the open

She has said herself that her music is catharsis for her...but the pain of watching her relive it is difficult.
Just like artists who paint darkness or painful emotions.
She is not thinking so much about money, but trying to release this darkness and pain she carries.

How dare you! I LOVE Tori Amos... and if she is of the Dark Side then the light is DEAD!
No evil could create such beauty musically.
However, I have often wondered if she is MK-Ultra because some of her songs talk about being used and abused sexually as a child and being a sacrifice.
Somemetimes she sounds as though she knows, and has experience, of child prostitution by TPTB.

Music is healing. All true singer/songwriters know of its power to redeem.

Pure raw sexual rage- expressed as performance art.
she is UN-possessing herself from the crushing burden of a violent rape in her teen years.
Her original version is so tepid, and little girl like-its as if she is afraid to even tell a semblance of her story-and is very non-accusing-as if she feels SHE had a part in it.
Many women carry this for years and become dysfunctional, frigid, demented, or sluts if they cannot confront and go throught the anger that many dare not look at or express-and many cannot-many, believe it or not, blame themselves.
If guys got raped (as they are often in prison-or from a priest/parent)-there would be more understanding
Big Bruce in cell 39 would set ya straight alright...

No one dared
No one cared
To tell me where the pretty girls are
Those demigods
With their nine-inch nails
And little fascist panties
Tucked inside the heart
Of every nice girl

So you can make me cum
but does it make you Jesus?
It was like watching Sybil transform into her third personality!
And by the by, when did she acquire an accent? Fate determines who walks into your life.... It's up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.
How dare you! I LOVE Tori Amos... and if she is of the Dark Side then the light is DEAD!

So her feigning masturbation on stage with a giant knife and holding a gun to her head is "not dark"...?
Wow.
I find it quite disturbing and extremely dark.
I also find her lyrics disturbing, fascist panties, beating faces in, demonic eyes?
Doesn't sound all that peaceful to me. .

Listen to her beautiful music and you will understand. Judging Tori Amos on one song and one performance is like judging Bush on one speech - you simply can't do it.
If she was really masturbating on stage with a giant knife, or if she fired the gun... then yes, she would be insane... but instead she is MAKING A STATEMENT!

I imagine crazy psycho whore bitches would interpret it that way, the mirror and all.

If women like her didn't get abused, raped or similar by their boyfriends or dads or uncles, think of all the fans that would miss out on all of that awesome angst filled music!
Not to mention the numbers of lesbians and militant man haters that would drop considerably. The numbers would dwindle to the point of their being less readership, members and subscribers to many gay magazines and who would attend Lilith fair or similar.
Just think, Tori (and abused women like her) could have become, oh my god, housewives or some thing worse, a middle class working slug in a cubicle. She's still a breeder though so who knows really?

Are you kidding me? Have you really ever heard Bush talk? He's a fucking idiot with a script and totally brainless if he actually has to speak for himself.
At least Tori Amos has some semblance of a brain, so please don't insult her like that by comparing her in anyway to the Shrub.

I think she is identifying too much with Delirium these days and that can't be healthy. "As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being" Carl Jung

first off, no one's disputing she looks freaked out/entraced in an inhuman way in this particular vid
----> some you guys who often think the use of one word like 'lucifer' automatically means this whole dirty smorgasboard of things, or casts someone into a sure category... maybe you've been conditioned to fear this word...
(if you had a gifted ear/appreciation for and understanding of the overall catalog of her music, you would not be proclaiming that: i.e. proclaiming what 'side' she's personally on)
tell you what, I 'fear' these mamby-pamby sweet talking SELF-IDENTIFIED 'lightworkers' more -- the ones who sing sweetly about 'light' all the time -- for being two faced...
ego/thecontrolmachine lives in you and I ... when it does. and NOT when it doesn't:
when we are honest.
