Another day, another (more than likely unsucessful) attempt to enlighten people on how brilliant this woman is....

1. Cornflake Girl - what a brilliant piano solo

2. Spark - An epic, powerful, moving song about her miscarriage.

3. Precious Things - Just genius.

4. Sweet The Sting - This shows how versatile she is.

5. The Power of Orange Knickers - Don't let the title put you off. Quirky but beautiful at the same time.

Cornflake Girl is by far her best song for me.

If I was an Amos fan I'd be gutted that the song she's mostly known for in the UK is that awful dance remix.

Believe me, that crappy dance remix is the thorn in the side of every Tori fan!

Ironically, the song in it's original form is one of her most creative and truly genius moments.

For the record, Tori has done so many songs better than Cornflake Girl. You should really check out the rest of her catalogue.

LOL, no need to convert me! :wild: She's a goddess! :bow: But there's still a lot to discover for me... Sometimes I wish I had more time... :(
At this moment I'm totally crazy about the album From the Choirgirl Hotel! :D
 
spark sounds like the song that was missing from my life.

Thank you, so so so much. That was beautiful.
