Myra Ellen Amos was born on August 22, 1963, in Newton, North Carolina, to a Methodist minister and a homemaker mother. She is the youngest of three children. Ellen moved to a Maryland suburb at the age of one, when her family decided to relocate. She was referred by a friend that she looked more like a “Tori” while performing. It was hard to ignore the fact that young Tori had a great talent for playing the piano. By the age of four she was composing music on the piano. Two years later she was studying classic piano at the Peabody Institute at Baltimore’s Johns Hopkins University, becoming the youngest to attend the school. Tori was expelled from the school after performing her own compositions to the faculty. She apparently ad-libbing John Lennon and the Doors tunes. When she was 13-years-old she was performing at clubs, but this time playing jazz on her piano. Atlantic Records took notice and signed the then 24-year-old singer in 1987. She released an eponymous album with her hard-rock band, Y Kan't Tori Read, the following year. The album, however, was a commercial and critical disappointment and its failure sent Amos back to the musical drawing board. In 1992 she rebounded with her debut solo album, Little Earthquakes. The acclaimed CD contained 12 haunting, ultra-personal tracks; including the cut "Me and a Gun," on which Amos recounts the details of her own rape. A “fan” offered her a ride home after a show and raped her at gunpoint. The album was an international success, selling more than two million copies worldwide and establishing Amos as one of the most compelling female vocalists to emerge from the '90s. In 1994 Amos released her second full-length, Under the Pink, on Atlantic. The CD, which contained the hits "God" and "Cornflake Girl," debuted at No. 2 on the British album charts and went on to sell several million copies. Amos' ambitious third album, Boys for Pele, came out in 1996 and further solidified her extremely loyal, if somewhat frighteningly obsessive, fan base. In early 1998 Amos contributed a couple tracks to the Great Expectations soundtrack, returning later in the spring with her fourth full-length album, Songs From the Choirgirl hotel. In 2003, Amos released a best-of collection with new tracks such as “Snow Cherries From France”, “Mary”, and “Sweet Dreams”.

| | too hard to choose, a few are sugar, lust, spark, cooling, gold dust, winter and merman. | raisingrrl | | i like cornflake girl and suede (to venus and back) i still have to better familiarize myself | Anabela | | yeah, cornflake girl IS 1 of the best songs ever! | raisingrrl | | raisin girl solution: will solve war, crime, heart-ache, EVERYTHING | Anabela | | wait till i listen to all the albums and see if i have any more fave songs | Anabela | | u will find it 2 hard to choose! x | raisingrrl | Past The Mission, difinately!
Um i was wondering, when did Tori and Maynard James Keenan perform together? I saw pic of them once sitting at a piano and i wondered where it cam e from.. i would love to hear that collaboration!
JAZZ | Curbside_Prophet | god, precious things, cornflake under the pink is good but so is
| Anabela | | but so is.. but so is what? | Curbside_Prophet | i like her song Mr. Zebra. it's really
good! | lacunacoilfan15 | Its gotta be Yes Anastasia, its shows off her
piano talent and her vocals better than any
other song. | Gelfling | MY FAVORITE SONG BY TORI AMOS WOULD BE
"A SORTA FAIRYTALE"... that
rocks! | damn-freak05 | | i agree with 'damn-freek 05' :) | emily_the_strange | Ooo I have so many favs! Right now I'm
really into Muhammad My Friend, Putting the
Damage On, Etienne, Toast, Your Cloud, and
Tear in Your Hand. | snowcherry21 | It is definatly hard to choose but my all
time favorite is Bullah Land, it makes me
feel alive when i listen to it | ready_to_confess | Who knows what album A Sorta Fairy Tale was
on? | St_Michael | - Blood Roses, probably her wildest ever.
- Winter, her most emotional-driven song. | avrilduff | Cornflake Girl, Mr. Zebra, Crucify, so many
to chose from. | lacunacoilfan15 | i love the song she did with ani difrano -
silent all these years | nobodyzero | i started this account to say a few things:
has anyone here heard more than two or three
songs?
did anyone here listen to tori amos before
she made the appearance in "mona lisa
smile"?
is anyone here over the age of 16?
i can't even begin to discuss the comment
about the "tori amos/ani difranco song
'silent all these years'."
and, for once and for all, it's spelled
DEFINITELY. use a dictionary, for christ's
sake.
| skedaddle | oh, and read_to_confess,
you should really heed my last point in the
previous post. and if you like "bullah
land" so much, maybe you should learn
to spell it, too.
| skedaddle | and just so no one can yell at me,
"read_to_confess" was a typo --
i apologize. i know it's actually
"ready_to_confess." | skedaddle | | My favorite is "Floating City" | Velvetresolution | ~Skedaddle~
I doubt you will ever see this, much less
reply, but I just have to ask. When you asked
if the other people that posted replies were
14, was it due to the fact that you think
that their choices were immature and 'the
ones everyone knows' or because they are
Tori Amos fans? I agree that it doesn't
make sense to say someone is your favorite
yet list favorites that seem like you
haven't heard all of her music. When I
find someone I like I have to hear everything
they have ever put out whether it's with
their current band or from 5 bands ago. If
you mean that it's immature to even like
her, I really don't understand why you
would look an artist up just to insult their
fans. If that's not the epitome of
immature, I don't know what is!
I love every song, but 'Precious
Things' & 'Silent All These Years'
are my absolute favorites because the lyrics
are some of the best I've ever heard.
Precious Things
I wanna smash the faces
of those beautiful BOYS
those christian boys
so you can make me cum
that doesn't make you jesus
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
Silent All These Years
so you found a girl
who thinks really deep thoughts
what's so amazing
about really deep thoughts
boy you best pray
that I bleed real soon
how's that thought for you
Yes I realize it's not the entire song
~just my favorite verses!
| PimpStar | Before I get virtually pimp slapped, I
realize I put 14 and it was 16. Sorry | PimpStar | I just realized that one of my favorites is
the one you said you didn't even want to
get into and I'm curious if it's
because you hate the song so much, hate Ani
DiFranco or because you don't even think
they did a song together? | PimpStar | | | |
