From Amazon.com
In an era of digital downloads and singles, Tori Amos embraces the concept album in a sprawling 23-song oratorio. Firing across the American psychological, social, and political landscape, she takes on the state of the world, war, and feminism. To help her, she adopts five personas–her American Doll Posse–who take their characteristics from Greek gods, but not their names: Clyde, Pip, Isabel, Santa, and Tori. You need a scorecard to keep track, but don’t worry. It’s still Tori Amos, bending syllables in improbable pretzels with rippling piano themes and choruses that threaten to go Broadway at any moment. Amos vents her political spleen through “Isabel,” leaving no doubt as to her targets on tracks like “Yo George,” and comments on our impersonal age and computer addiction with “Digital Ghost.” That’s sung by the character “Tori,” who is reputedly based on Demeter and Dionysus, representing the split between Amos’s earth-mother side and her wilder, more libertine tendencies. Anti-war and pro-feminist themes are plastered across American Doll Posse like sloganeering posters. “Dark Side of the Sun” laments both sides of the war, including the Islamists who lay down their lives “for some sick promise of heaven.” Amos adopts a big ’80s rock sound on many tracks, with guitarist Mac Aladdin pealing off Brian May-style guitar licks over an arena-rock beat. It’s where Amos details a more personal sound that American Doll Posse leaves a lasting impression. “Girl Disappearing,” sung by “Clyde,” holds echoes of the Beatles’ “Eleanor Rigby,” not only because of the string quartet and nostalgic tone, but the updated tale of a woman losing herself. “Smokey Joe” brims with dark atmospheres, Robert Fripp-like guitar sustains, and Amos’s most elaborate vocal arrangements, interweaving two sets of lyrics for “Pip.” More than a concept album, American Doll Posse is a convergence experience, mixing online blogs from each character, videos, MySpace sites, and more. –John Diliberto
What else? An audio book.
And that woman is a FROOT LOOP!!! I think she needs to pop another three percocets before she does her next interview. She wasn’t quite fucked up enough.
I love Tori’s music. Don’t know much about her as a person, but since Neil Gaiman wrote the character Delirium based on her I can only assume she’s “interesting.” 🙂
She amuses me greatly. LOVE her music.
lol I don’t think she was on drugs… I think that is just her *g*. And of course it is badly sliced together interview a la youtube. But she is a trip.
If authors can have voices speak to them so can tori *eg*
Did she have some work done? She looks younger than she did in 1991! She has always talked to the fairies and whatnot. I’ll have to watch this again later when I can hear it better.
I used to love her, but her more recent albums haven’t really worked for me. A couple of great songs, but the rest? meh.
Oh, in my car on a constant loop are Jessie’s Girl and Words To Me by Sugar Ray (which was featured in the live action Scooby Doo movie, in case you haven’t seen it a hundred times like me.) This is the last time I buy my kids’ favorite songs for my IPOD.
Don’t know but she looks fantastic for any age but you would never know she is 44.
I like this cd and I only liked one song or maybe two off Beekeeper and The something walk one I forget the title. Coved Strange Girls? whatever the cover cd was…
but my music taste is all over the place 🙂
