One of my myspace.com friends said my style reminded her of Tori Amos. Well OK, I heard of her but never actually heard her (probably did but didn''t know it was her) so I bought her album The Beekeeper. I became an immediate fan. Her lyrics are amazing like:
Sweet the Sting
With a strut into the room
With his hat cocked sure defiantly
He said "I, I have heard
That you can play the way I like it to be played."
I said, "I can play, anyway that you want.
But first I want, I want to know
Baby is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail"
He said "I laid my weapons
down with my pistol
Fully loaded, a hunted man
To my root, will it end
Or begin in your cinnabar juice?"
Is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail"
Love let me breathe
Breathe you in
Melt the confusion
Until there is
There is your - union
I already have another one of her CDs on order.
No idea about the Beekeeper but Ive got Little Earthquakes, Under the Pink, From the Choirgirl Hotel and another one I cant think of.
I do like her music but not recent stuff.
Little Earthquakes is amazing.
Get Little Earthquakes for sure. That album helped me through the angsty teenaged years. Every chick should check it out.
Stumble It!
