This CD is simply one of the best Tori Amos CDs I've ever listened to. The acoustics are great the sound is awesome and she delivers one great song after another. I've listened to this in my car for over 3 months and have yet to grow tired of it. It isn't a hit or miss either every single song is great. For you folks who have sub-woofers in your car and like to make good use of it this CD will give your sub-woofer a good work-out. Strong DEEP bass and a nicely layered recording make this CD a must have for any Alternative Music fan. In previous recordings of Tori Amos that I've listened to her lyrics and music seemed dark and to be honest a little depressing, but this CD proves that Tori Amos is flexible and is not at all dark or depressing. My personal favorite song on the CD is titled "Spark" which combines a nice mixture of witty lyrics with great bass guitar, drums and keyboards. This is the BEST Tori Amos CD I've ever heard period.Read full review
From the choirgirl hotel is easily my favorite Tori Amos album. Although my favorite Tori song is not on this album, the infusion of electric guitar rhythms to her brilliant piano playing is greatly appreciated by hard rock fans. "Spark", "i i e e e" and "playboy mommy" have become favorites of regular and hardcore fans alike. It is my opinion however, that "Raspberry swirl" alone is worth the purchase.
Hands down top favorite Tori album right now
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
I absolutely adore Tori Amos!! She has a very original and unusual voice that lends itself to her way of wailing about life...she moves me! I bought this cd because (1) it was really discounted (2) I needed to add another Tori Amos cd to my collection and (3) Tori Amos puts me in the right mood, a good mood.
It's hard to say what stands out about this album compared to Tori's other works. It's very consistant and flows well and stays true to what we've come to expect from Tori. I don't know if this would be a good place to start if you are new to Tori's music but this is a must own if you are a fan.
