Tori Amos is amazing! Cornflake Girl, Silent All These Years, Precious Things, Little Earthquakes, Caught A Light Sneeze, Spark, God… and SOOO many more! You can deep dive this one and appreciate her genius ❤

[@bjdefilippo447]

Silent All These Years and Little Earthquakes are favorites of mine, but there really isn't a bad pick. So much talent!

[@deanarjones9114]

Winter.

[@LiberalsArePoop]

Excuse me but can I be you for awhile...

[@williamburnham3659]

I quite agree, and also obviously Me and a Gun

[@esclad]

Sugar.

[@lorioday8528]

Tori is a classically trained mezzo-soprano. She is the youngest person ever to win a full scholarship to The Peabody Institute (a performance conservatory and prep school) @ Johns Hopkins University AT 5 YRS OLD!! , Kate Bush has always been one of Tori's biggest influences. And Kate is ALL OVER this piece. She ALWAYS sits at her piano like that. ✌️🎶

[@johnnyappleseed5590]

She’s got a beautiful voice and she’s hot as Hell too. Lmao

[@tomk_616]

Don't forget she got kicked out at age 11 for "musical insubordination" lol.

[@TahoeNevada]

Yes! I think of Tori Amos’ music as a cross between Kate Bush and Patti Smith.

[@Spiderific]

Definitely see the Kate Bush in this.

[@gablen23]

@@tomk_616 fortunately :)

[@O_Towne_Bear]

Wow! Here is a woman who needs more reactions. This whole album is gold. Caught her live twice and never get tired of her music. She counts Kate Bush and Joni Mitchell among her influences. ALSO: Did the video you're watching skip after the second verse?

[@kentonkruger8333]

There are a couple edits in the video version unfortunately.

[@Wordsmyth8]

Yep.

[@Johnny_Socko]

Not only is the video version a different edit, it's also a different mix than the album version. Weirdly, I prefer the album verses and the video mix. 🤷‍♂ But my favorite Tori songs are "Precious Things" and "Winter".

[@robertreichle1]

I can't imagine why anyone would want to alter the song from the album version in the slightest. It's wonderful as is.

[@gablen23]

You can definitely hear their influence on Tori's style, especially Kate Bush's.

[@MrEriczamorez]

Listen to Silent All These Years. The back story of that song is so powerful and intimate. And her later stuff in the 90s like Spark, is very reminiscent of this.

[@Spiderific]

Both awesome songs.

[@fortyfivekva]

Her live performance of "Winter" brings a tear to my eyes every time I hear it. This is the version I am talking about: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJ7OYXSMg7d1f7s

[@MizzInterpreted]

Absolutely!

[@aramakukutai7750]

Her masterpiece. For her Dad ❤

[@chelsea747]

[@mcolford]

Yes, this live version will take your breath away for sure.

[@Priasbcbeist]

[@josephprovencher6345]

I LIVE for Tori Amos and finally after being a fan for 30 years saw her live in Boston and she was EVERYTHING ❤

[@hpacheco]

I saw her for the first time last summer after the same amount of time listening to her music. She was amazing

[@donkey3187]

Im not familiar with her...but I dont care for this song much at all.

[@michaelgilreath1025]

I saw her perform years ago. She did a cover of "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Incredible singer!!

AND her song "Caught a Lite Sneeze" has a Nine Inch Nails reference... she definitely has her harder side!

[@toriboy25]

@@Shrykespeare Precious Things also has a NIN reference. Well she actually says the words Nine Inch Nails LOL

[@toriboy25]

Did she perform this song? I saw her in 96 and she did not :( I got a bootleg CD some time after that of her performing live in other countries and Crucify was on it but half-way through she stops and says "Oh sh!t I forgot the words" LOL

[@michaelgilreath1025]

YAY! Finally entering the Tori Amos universe. Enjoy “Winter” next, (live at Montreux 91/92) you’ll both bawl your eyes out!

[@yomo1690]

Winter live at Montreux 91/92 is essential.

[@emmarz8934]

Tori Amos Universe! What a great place to be.

[@Johnny_Socko]

Disagree, everyone should hear the album version first, with the full orchestra. Then the stripped-down live version(s) for comparison.

[@Spiralsinto]

Absolutely must react to this song and this version. Her voice and piano are haunting and beautiful.

[@snuggilyd]

Yes yes yes. This song. This performance.

[@deanarjones9114]

Little Earthquakes is an album journey. It still speaks to me. The piano is part of her. Her delivery and timing are amazing. The pauses are full.

[@russelhamm3727]

Tori is literally a musical genius. She has a very deep personal history, which you could find out more and then listen to “silent all these years” She’s a master at lyrics, and a master at composing, and a piano prodigy,… period!

[@BeckyLStoutWriter]

Yay! I'm so happy y'all are finally hearing some Tori! I've suggested her so many times, so I am very happy. 🤗 And I know a lot of people are gonna comment with more song suggestions (all of which will be amazing!). But I'm gonna recommend "A Sorta Fairytale". Just make sure you watch the official video because it's kinda weird, but in the best way! 😁 You also get extra points if you know who the actor featured in it is. 😉

[@jofoster1596]

Adrian Brody, great video, even better song!

[@funkmeyer4614]

Cornflake Girl is FIRE

[@justinsomething]

It just sucks that they used the radio edit for the video, because it cuts out the best part of the song!

[@willowbeederouaux4750]

HUGE Tori fan here. My mom bought me her album 'Little Earthquakes' when I was 14 years old (in 1992) and I was smitten! I saw her twice in concert in the '90's and she was A-MAZING! She played 2 pianos AT ONCE! Tori is a true artist. 💜

[@normalbeauty5644]

I have a very similar experience! I was 15 and I was in my room studying and my mom brought home Boys for Pele. I think in 1996. I should have been studying, but from the first note of beauty queen/horses I was hooked. I didn't do much studying! I have seen her live many times. I saw her in Amsterdam just a few weeks ago. Absolutely fantastic! She is amazing. xoxo

[@dorothyannford8448]

Same!

[@paulweiss3818]

This entire album is fire. My favorite on it is Winter. It's slow for Jay but the lyrics as SOOOOO deep, haunting, and beautiful.

[@DanalynTuthill-yl4hd]

I'm hoping Jay will relate to it as a father who has daughters.

[@ericroth9514]

I think Jay will love it even though it's slow. Such a beautiful melody, and the way the instrumental part builds toward the end is irresistible.

[@DanalynTuthill-yl4hd]

@Eric Roth I hope so. Jay is already intrigued by her so that's a good sign.

[@ericroth9514]

@@DanalynTuthill-yl4hd I agree--If he likes her this much right away, slow shouldn't bother him. And I also agree with you that a father with daughters will get a lot out of it (the whole album, for that matter).

[@rutht6670]

Agreed. I suggest the live version from Montreux.

[@howeird84]

The song “ GOD” is incredible!!! I saw her in concert and you are right… She dances on the piano bench!

[@jenniferkasowicz9463]

And plays two pianos at once!! (Or piano and harpsichord or piano and synthesizer….) incredible.

[@ericroth9514]

This is the 1st song off her album Little Earthquakes, which is a masterpiece. I know you hear that all the time, but it really is. Not one weak song of the 12 on it. The lyrics are often dark, but the melodies are beautiful. Girl, Winter, and Silent All These Years are highlights, and when you're ready for something truly intense, consider Me and a Gun. You'll never forget it.

[@tomk_616]

Yeah, they might need a trigger warning for Me and a Gun. But it is an important listen. Amber might need to have some tissues at the ready.

[@emilywilhite5807]

I never know if I should recommend Me and a Gun because it can be a tough listen. Not musically of course. And the a cappella style really shows off her voice.

[@ericroth9514]

@@emilywilhite5807 I think a capella is a big reason to hear it. Such a powerful vocal. But can't disagree that it's a tough listen (or about the trigger warning).

[@jenniferkasowicz9463]

I feel like you need to hear Me and a Gun as a part of the album… that’s what it all leads up to and why it’s so powerful.

[@rutht6670]

Yeah, a trigger warning is smart but they've done songs about traumatic experiences in the past and it would be interesting to view a reaction to something a capella.

[@cherrybomb1386]

Tori is everything! Deep catalog of masterpieces

[@davidsalvo5455]

Yes! Tori is a magical wonder! She will teach you, make you uncomfortable, and bring you into the most secret places in yourself. She’s really a treasure!

[@shawnstoll8489]

Tori is amazing! She will be in Indiana in July. Some must songs to checkout: "Silent All These Years", "Mary", "Past The Mission", "Taxi Ride", "Blood Roses", "Trouble's Lament", "A Sorta Fairytale", "Real Men", "Winter", "Pancake", "Bouncing Off Of Clouds", "Sleeps With Butterflies", "Amber Waves", and "Cornflake Girl".

I'm so excited for you!!! Saw her back in the 90s and it was absolutely astonishing!

[@gennyreese420]

The first time I saw her was there about 25 years ago or so it was a magical night, seen her a few times since then but nothing beats Red Rocks and Tori Amos it's a special kind of magic and I'm super jealous of you and anyone else that gets to go LOL I'm stuck in the desert and I can't join y'all but I know you'll have the time of your lives, she loves Denver and it shows when she plays there!✌🌌😎

The entire Little Earthquakes album is an absolute masterpiece! Hope you react to much more Tori in the future.. you won't be sorry! Thanks J & A for this one...

[@scottNNJ]

I’ve been waiting for some Tori on this channel! You would love her song Winter…. Especially the live version, it’s a dedication to her dad.

[@michelleledbetter6105]

Tori Amos is incredible! Her lyrics are poetry.

[@deanarjones9114]

Completely agree.

[@jeffbartholomew1152]

Tori is amazing and she sings about some very deep topics. She’s one of those artists who has cared more about her art than having billboard hits.

[@hellokimmy68]

I got to see her in concert last year. She has two keyboards and plays both at the same time. As someone who has played piano their whole life, I was SUPER impressed.

[@jenny5moon]

Her relationship to the piano is entirely unique, it’s an extension of her body, it’s just amazing to watch. I can’t say enough good for her and her music, you definitely need to go down this rabbit hole!

[@abarton1978]

I saw Tori from the 3rd row about 25 years ago, and she was so great! Such a good musician and singer.

[@emilywilhite5807]

Omg! Can’t believe you’re doing Tori. I’ve loved her since her first album and have seen her in concert many times. The talent is undeniable. The way you mentioned her sitting at the piano-that is now she does her concerts so she’s playing and singing but still interacting with the audience. She is an extremely talented and classically trained musician and piano player. She attended a very prestigious school from an extremely young age (possibly their youngest student ever) and left the school because she couldn’t pursue her own personal unique style. Please go down the Tori rabbit hole. I don’t even know what song to suggest next because she doesn’t have a bad one.

[@darrylvonrokk]

Little Earthquakes is classic!!!

[@1sts118]

Winter : a masterpiece !

[@sidhedanu]

She still holds the record for youngest at the Peabody.

[@trumphatesyou]

Saw her at Penn State in the late 90's. Wasn't a big fan but seeing her live changed that. When she did "Me and a Gun" probably the most powerful thing I've ever seen.

[@bjdefilippo447]

So powerful and heartbreaking.

[@mamatay7]

Omg, absolutely shattering! Need to schedule a group therapy session live if they do that one!

[@xarkos]

I thought of suggesting Me and a Gun but boy that's a heavy song, might not be quite right for the channel but definitely worth listening to.

[@alternateuniverse422]

That song helped me out of a really bad place, made me feel understood. Seeing it live was hard but also beautiful and such a show of strength.

[@BrassTacks75]

This album came out when I was 19 and it completely shifted the point of view of every one of my female friends. A massive impact!

[@liaboyd8464]

I'm so excited! I'm commenting before I even watch. I've been waiting for you to cover the 90s sirens

[@rantoppp]

Tori Amos - "Winter" and "Silent All These Years" (From "Live At Montreux 91/92") is a must! She is a brilliant pianist, like masterclass type talent! Some of her music is really deep and sparks some emotions. When those two songs first came out, they touched my soul. Her live performances make it that much better. She has an amazing voice too. It's not just the fact she has great breath control but also that she uses her breathing to add feeling into the story she is telling. In fact, I'm going to watch them again right now! She has done quite a few cover songs which are unique in her interpretation.

[@Shrykespeare]

YES!!!!!! Finally, you react to a Tori song!!! I love Tori, and have since the 90s. This was a great introduction, and I hope you dive further into her discography. "Caught a Lite Sneeze" is my personal favorite, but you can also try "God", "Silent All These Years", "A Sorta Fairytale", or "Taxi Ride". She was a piano prodigy since childhood and if you continue down this road, you'll get some epic piano tracks!

[@ThomasKnip]

I've been following her for 30 years now, and her music will always keep a special place in my heart.

[@sethleon2158]

You have to do live versions when checking out Tori. She is an excellent pianist, excellent vocalist, unique songwriter -- but above all else she is a live performance artist. I have seen her reduce more than a few grown men to tears with the way she connects her performance to the audience. She has some jazz improvisation in the way she delivers a song differently each time.

[@DiogenesDecibel]

Great intro to Tori. This was the song that introduced me to her in the Summer of 1992 when I was 14. Since then I've seen her 26 times live. She's a treasure. Not always everyone's cup of tea, but undoubtedly talented and innovative and ahead of her time and passionate and inspiring, etc. . . with a huge catalog of wonderfully diverse music and ideas. ❤️

[@diannaw3034]

I remember Tori and Alanis came out about the same time.. and let me tell you .. they both really captivated everyone who saw them perform and heard them sing.. as they both just were sooooooooo different, unique, bold and really created their very own lanes where they didn't have to share their audience with other female performers of that era.. as their cult followings were quick and huge!!! Oh and yes you can defo hear the Kate Bush influence with Tori in this one... and it's mesmerizing!!! Love Tori!!

[@briangreenwood7233]

Finally! I've been waiting on this. At five, Tori became the youngest student ever admitted to the preparatory division of the Peabody Institute to study classical piano. Tori dropped her debut album Little Earthquakes in 1992 to critical acclaim. It is my second favorite album of all time. I hope you will review more songs from that album and then explore further into her music catalog. I have been fortunate to see her live I think 7 times and she sounds even better live. I remember seeing her perform in 1992 in a small venue and got to meet her parents who were not sure if this was going to work as she was in a prior group that flopped called "Why Kant Tori Read?" The album bombed and yet she was under contract and had to release more music, but this time as a solo artist. She would release Little Earthquakes which would launch her into stardom and it was perfect timing as female artists of all genres really exploded throughout the 90s if you remember Lilith Fair? She has sometimes been compared to Kate Bush. Tori is still recording new music and is currently on tour. She has also published two books and composed and had a musical called the Light Princess released in England.

[@elizabethriggs7588]

One of my favorite lyrics of all time “You’re just an empty cage,girl, if you kill the bird”

[@feliciachaste]

NO ONE plays piano like Tori. She is golden. Listen to Cornflake Girl next. The piano solos are beyond fire. One of my favorite musical compositions of all time.

[@grinnyp]

Now you should try “silent all these years”, “caught a light breeze”, and “me and a gun”.

[@ADuchessInside]

There's no one like Tori Amos! I'm so glad you finally got to her and liked her so much.

[@DSGodiva]

"Precious Things", "A Sorta Fairytale", "Cornflake Girl", and "Winter" (ideally either the Gold Dust version or the live version of Winter) are some of my favorites from Tori.

[@TZ61]

There are so many creative women artists in music today. Granted, Tori, PJ Harvey, Fiona Apple, and the band Sleater-Kinney have been around 30 years give or take, but then you have Courtney Barnett, Phoebe Bridgers, Sharon Van Etten, Anna Tivel; the list goes on. I'm an old geezer, but I still get excited about new finds as you put it, whether it's newer music, or something from previous decades that I may have missed. Great stuff.

[@jofoster1596]

I knew it wouldn't be long before you got to her. One of the most gifted talents on the planet

[@shirleyujest7786]

Her voice is eclectic and the control she has is amazing. I love Spark.

[@johnnyappleseed5590]

I grew up listening to so much different music in the 80’s including classic rock, heavy metal, Motown, Oldies, Punk rock, rap, etc. Ive always loved Tori Amos music since I first heard her in the mid 90’s probably.

[@seansersmylie]

Magic! Seen her play a couple of weeks ago in Belfast, she was amazing!

[@lynnhettrick7588]

Tori’s “Silent All These Years” came out just as I was growing into a young adult. Her words really spoke to me. A lot of her songs have deep meanings. Her voice and her music are amazing! So many great songs.

I LOVE that you both have FINALLY reacted to Tori. She's one of the giants of 90s music. An incredible force in an era that was full of strong and opinionated women. Thank you.

[@hellokimmy68]

You've gotten other requests for "Winter" and "Silent All These Years", both of which are excellent, but my FAVORITE is "Raspberry Swirl." It's chaotic and amazing.

[@nobody_special]

Great artist. Saw her live twice in the 90s. She was a piano prodigy. She got her professional start playing in piano bars. She got tired of being ignored by bar patrons, so she came up with her provocative playing style.

Tori was everything in my teens in the early 90s. I dedicated her song Winter to my dad before he passed away and I still cry everytime I hear that song. That was almost 20 years ago. Her music is very deep, thought provoking, and moving. Definately do more Tori.

[@ThefetchNZ]

She does a live version where she plays 2 pianos at the same time. Just brilliant

[@ORURO25]

Wow. That you for that. Tori is grate

[@kevinmarques7716]

Tori Amos is such a great artist. Her music is so personal and raw. She has a song called Me and a Gun which is literally about when she was raped in L.A. when she was 21. It's a rough listen but i respect her so much for being able to put that out there. Silent All These Years and Cornflake Girl are also really great songs from her

[@decemberwind69]

You have to see her live. She is amazing. She goes between two pianos . This whole album is amazing. Her Acapella is beyond fantastic. I've been a fan from the beginning. She has so many good songs I don't know where to begin .

[@seanmurphy4077]

Tori Amos is amazing! Been a fan since her first album, even named my daughter after her! After 32+ years, I’m finally going to see her live out here in San Diego!

[@bigjoe330]

Tori is a master at her craft. Very unique and talented. Very underrated.

[@letitiadavis16]

Her dad was a preacher. When he realized when she was a teenager how talented she was he started escorting her to bars and such so she could perform.

[@KatSut1978]

I fell in love with Tori’s music on a flight from Seattle to Chicago in 1999 the day after Thanksgiving. They were playing a VH1 Storytellers of her performing live. I was feeling terrible and her music transported me to a different distracting place for awhile. She’s such a talented artist. Thanks for reacting to her! ❤

[@shanasmith3665]

This album came out my senior year of high school. Little Earthquakes is def on of my top 10 albums of all time. I shared it with my great niece, who is a senior this year, and now she’s a fan girl too. I’ve seen Tori twice live and she’s just astounding. There’s so many of her songs I could suggest. Here’s just a few faves: Silent All These Years Cornflake Girl Hey Jupiter 1,000 Oceans A Sorta Fairytale Spark There’s literally 30 years worth to cover, but I think these are a good start. Or at least some of the more commercially known ones.

[@afergie76]

So pleased you’re doing Tori! I have been such a fan of hers for decades. Her music help me in the darkest time in my life. Just to let you guys know, she was a piano prodigy as a kid and her talent only massed as she got older. Check out her ‘Precious Things’. Probably her most popular song. Also, check out ‘Me and a Gun’. She is a rape survivor. She wrote that song as therapy for that trauma. If you scope that song, know that and listen to the words.

[@reactionsaccount3955]

Her first 2 albums are absolute fire, all the songs are world class. 🔥

[@tonyterryjohnson8603]

Silent all these years has always been my favorite of her hits. Thanks for playing her she is so good.

[@gansitopetersen6484]

She is absolutely seismic as an artist. I am so happy you are finally experiencing her. Her whole catalog is amazing. "Winter, I don't like Mondays, and Northern Lad" are just a few you should check out. ❤

[@hotmail305]

Gaga stole her whole piano playing style from tori amos....that's obvious. tori Amos is the REAL DEAL

[@tonyburns1029]

Cornflake Girl is great also the live version of Winter is spectacular.

[@adnap]

I see people misusing the word “underrated” all the time. This artist, THIS is where this word should be applied. She has a MASSIVE following, but it’s still not what she deserves. I’ve seen her in concert at least 5 or 6 times, and it’s always a transcendent experience. Please continue to follow the music of this lovely woman. I was watching this music video when it WORLD PREMIERED on MTV. And I've been listening to her ever since. I haven’t watched the video yet, but right or wrong, I’m looking forward to this reaction.

[@clubberlange4119]

Lol. Jay nailed it. Tori is intriguing. You never really figure her out but she continues to draw you in. Never afraid to be different than the rest

[@tomk_616]

OMG, I love that y'all are finally getting around to Tori. My all time favorite artist! I would stick with this album for a bit before moving on to her later works (although, there are plenty of amazing songs in her catalog) but "Little Earthquakes" is one of the most impactful debut albums ever released. It is a statement piece that grabbed critics and fans alike when it exploded onto the scene. This album literally changed my life. I didn't take it out of the CD player for months. I would suggest "Winter" next or maybe "China". "Leather" is a personal favorite.

[@auralfixxation6702]

I love the album called "Boys For Pele". It has probably her best known song called "Caught A Lite Sneeze". She's also done some really interesting cover songs by everyone from Nirvana to Slayer.

[@jenniferkasowicz9463]

I’m not arguing… I thought Cornflake Girl would be considered her most famous song? 🤔 eh, they’re both awesome! ✌️

@@jenniferkasowicz9463 it's hard to really judge a popular song by her. She technically hasn't had a hit song. I just said "Caught A Lite Sneeze" because that usually is the one people I know mention, if they even know of her. 😊

Tori Amos, Annie Lennox and Bjork hold a special place in my heart for music that cuts deep and is so expressive and different. It's hard to put them in any particular genre because of their unique compositions.

[@m.vondrake5534]

Tori is a talent overload in the most beautiful ways.

[@dannygriffith6185]

One of my favorites! Have seen her 3 times live. Always stunning! From this same album....listen to "Winter"; "China"; & title track, " Little Earthquakes." Great 🎵!!

[@thegingergyrl455]

I’ve seen Tori Amos in concert during the Abnormally Attracted to Sin album tour. I adore that album. Strong Black Vine probably sticks out the most to me. But the whole album is brilliant. She had so much energy and the talent is overwhelming. Love her! Great choice!❤

[@randomlibra]

OMG YES PLEASE OPEN THIS BOX!!! Tori Amos is a genius. "Winter" makes me cry.

[@ZeeDahktah]

Tori is a treasure. Please deep dive this rabbit hole. Precious Things (Live Session 1998)

[@pattyestrada6]

🛎️ Sara Bareilles - “She Used To Be Mine” 🛎️ Fiona Apple - “Criminal”

[@johnhess9070]

fiona Apple and Elvis Costello do an incredible live version of Costello's I want you. it's a must

[@Gulfmist_63]

​@John Hess just watched it..again like 10 minutes ago.

[@scottmaryfree]

I'll add my vote for "Silent All These Years" and "Me and a Gun". WARNING: "Me and a Gun" is a heavy song.

[@lynnhettrick7588]

Yes, agree

[@RichardX1]

And they mean "Janie's Got a Gun" levels of heavy

[@LordToddtastic666]

Tori is brilliant. So glad you found her

[@believer773]

Tori is the Queen of personal and emotional songs. A literal piano prodigy, beautiful voice, and amazing songwriter, she can be so raw that it hurts to listen

[@Wordsmyth8]

This song and the whole album are great.

[@Laurita7]

I love Tori Amos! Great reaction!!! 🎹🎶

[@cherylhurst7093]

Yay, finally doing Tori Amos! She began playing the piano when she was 2 by ear. She was the youngest piano student admitted to the Peabody Institute at age 5. She was kicked out at age 11 because she didn't want to keep learning how to play classical music or to read it since she already could play anything pretty much. She wanted to go her own way. Fascinating story. She persevered for ten years before she got a label to pick her up because "piano wasn't in anymore". Basically she was on the scene the same time as grunge. She does some incredible covers of Kurt Cobain's songs and a few other artist. Precious Things, Winter (my personal favorite) - some of the most beautiful singing and piano playing ever, oh I can't forget Cornflake Girl - album version is great but some of her live concerts are phenomenal. Her breath control is incredible and the ability to switch from high to low notes, soft to loud, etc. are her true talent as well as making the piano and her voice really match up.

[@joannalandingham788]

Omg finally! Fall down the Tori rabbit hole. You WILL NOT be disappointed.

[@andyh4224]

I am so happy, Amber I have been trying to you guys to react to this for a long time, you have made my day! The next song you should react to is "Winter" live at the Montrex 1991, the live version is superior to the music video. It is incredible, Thank you again Amber for pick this, I love this song!-

[@ksera3605]

Her covers of Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana and Angie by the Stones are phenomenal!

[@leeannies-tears369]

One of the most beautiful and well performed songs of all time!!!, in my opinion, is "Winter" WOW Seriously. Live at Mouroux!! So incredible.

[@punundrum1]

Tori Amos blew the roof off the 80-90s and now- brutally honest lyrics and FIRE stage presence… i saw her 3 yrs then.. Dear God. Enjoy the ride. Every album is different- just like the way she sits and plays..

[@pflynn581]

Cornflake Girl is great.

[@martinbraun1211]

Please listen to "Waiting for a Star to Fall" from BOY MEETS GIRL.

[@Deborahtunes]

Such a great, upbeat tune. Those late 80's years were the best of my life, and that song reminds me of it...
