Tori Amos - Almost Rosey

Tori Amos performs "Almost Rosey" from her latest album American Doll Posse live in the studios of 89.3 The Current. minnesota.publi...

[@Spinny78]

today. this is my song. I love going back into time and finding something relevant in my life currently.

[@VenusInPisces]

My love of Tori Amos, and I think its true for many, is listening to her, but also watching her perform. In fact I think she is my favorite performer to watch. So yes the wig is distracting, because I always liked that she was so natural on stage. It really hides her beauty, but her inner beauty shines with her songs. But still I will be glad to see her with out the wig, and back to just being herself again.

Encore un fabuleux morceau de notre chère Tori. Comment peut on ne pas tomber sous le charme d'une si riche et délicieuse mélodie composée, jouée et chantée avec une grandissime délicatesse par cette artiste au talent exceptionnel. Tori est l'incarnation même de la sensibilité féminine.

[@TheJP15]

i think this woman just stole my heart. the hair, the piano, the lyrics...im done for.

[@megslade1]

yes, yes, yes, yes, yes......she is all. what would we do without her?

[@cedarwho7]

I have loved her for as long as I can remember, this is one of my favorites...

[@linterdit521]

I hadn't seen this before. Holy, holy, holy. Absolutely breathtaking.

[@lichbane01]

Beautiful. Her voice is the closest thing to perfection that there is.

[@StsSunnyCharlie]

Love TORI!! thanks for sharing!

[@EmmaKayden]

her music is so real...

[@MissPraesepe]

This song always makes my day. Thank you Tori

[@goodtimetone]

she gave me 5 hugs once oh heaven on earth

[@mommakitt]

I think she sounds and looks amazing!!!

[@cedarwho7]

wow, I think you are right... I never really stared at her face, I just listen. Ya know, ears with feet as we are. I love her, and yes, she does look great.

[@murderoustendencies]

That's just beautiful :)

[@eugeneaniar7232]

This never gets old. 💙💙💙

[@iriswigle]

This reminds me of Francois Hardy...who was also known as Rose and the hairdo is so like 1962 pre Cher of 1963 with black hair. "highschool" time. More toned down from previous plays...less anger...more sadness to the point of resolution...like a tired sigh...like there is so little one can do about whatever but go forward.

[@paulvesovich]

awesome she is Minneapolis MN! My home town!

[@ErrROR501]

Normaly i hear Post-grunge and a bit metal and stuff like that ... but this is really good music and u can good relax to that ^^

[@IIIIIIIZIIIIIII]

If you dont like her why are you spending so much time watching her on KZbin :)

[@coldblooded83]

hahah funny, Isabel to me brings something special to it as well.. loved it in concert

[@yami1269]

I most definatelty agree!

[@Joe240394]

=| SHE IS SO AWESOME!

[@CB-vm8pl]

Gorgeous in 2023

[@peter7able]

Salvation is found at the foot of a mother

[@yami1269]

I agree.

[@clabarth]

Yes! I was worried too... But still wonderful.

[@PappyCaligula]

BTW, this does have one of her better piano intros that doesn't subcomb to her own inner bitterness right away. The overuse of disonance is actually damaging to brain ce;;s. For example, it's not JUST the decibels of Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray" (from "White Heat/White Light")that makes it the most damaging upon brain cells in history. It's the dissonance. It was so hard in fact, the recording engineer walked out complaining he didn't have to listen to it. Come get him when he was done.

[@Lanedude08]

I don't give a fuck if she's had surgery. SHE'S EARNED IT! She's a hard-working musician, role model, and has lent her voice to women who have been sexually assaulted or have miscarried. Hell, she helped found RAINN! And instead of chastising most reckless celebrity women today, she'd sooner help them out. So there, if Tori did have surgery, that's just a small crack to a beautiful porcelain sculpture.

[@PappyCaligula]

BTW, went to your site...YES, like that opening very, VERY much!. Since you obviously appreciate a real talent (and beauty), you might've already checked out her family connections right?. Annoushka and Ravi (Shankar) ofcourse? Something about those Texas-raised singers no matter their ethnicity. That's why I think Stephanie Morgan (Of Stephanie's ID), has such talent. (and beauty too) Look at it..Janis, Jim, Bonnie, Norah, and yea Stephanie too. I'd like to be YOUR FRIEND!!!

[@PappyCaligula]

Yea, it's like they both are about a "pointless point" . If you think about it, the "PP" quote makes sense :) There are just more relevant musicians out there. Not to overly pump a local group, but Stephanie'sID is the real deal.. BOTH their CD's run rings about anything Victoria has had in years!..."Drinking at a Party" from "Warm People" sends chills cause I know the feeling" Drinkin' at a party....Wishin' I was hap-py". Like one reviewer called them.. "Jim Morrison meets Ballet". WOW!

[@digitalghost89]

I agree with you, I think she probably had a face lift. However, I think the corners of her eyes being lifted is due to the wig. Look recent pictures of her (without the wig on) and you'll see that the corners of her eyes aren't as high as they are in this video :)

[@matthew1mc]

@SotaOMG I totally agree

[@PappyCaligula]

There is right and wrong. There is also prejudice. But when someone says baby demons are welcome, you expect me to remain silent? ...You don't hate men. You're just having a tough time accepting I'm not changing my mind. It's authoritarian. I'm the "bad cop" telling you "NO...STOP". Don't jump off a cliff because Tori Amos does too". (Figuratively speaking ofcourse) I'm not preaching. I'm just showing what a person says and I still believe "words mean something" Actually, you would love me.

[@candelise]

The wigs are to do with the characters of her last album. Do you know that CD? It is called American Doll Posse'.

[@citizenoftheplanet137]

Was this inspired by the song "American Pie"?

[@micheldepoorter212]

Tori put a spell on me...

[@Spinny78]

+Michel de Poorter And now she's yours! :)

[@El_TL]

I wish "Almost Rosey" sounded as good on ADP...

[@BoysForPele1989]

Elliot Lear That’s funny I prefer Almost Rosey live to the studio track!!

[@PappyCaligula]

BTW, you seem to appreciate composition, seriously check out the piano work/arrangements by StephaniesID ...

[@IIIIIIIZIIIIIII]

I wouldnt care if she was bald........she would still be Beautiful :)

[@TearInTheirHands]

@PHILIPLOVESDAVIN You don't have the right to call us idiots if you don't even know what we were arguing about. PappyCaligula accused Tori of being misandric and worshiping Satan. These are complete lies, and I believe I have the right to argue over that. Also, my facts ARE correct...unless you were talking about PappyCaligula, but it's pretty obvious that he/she/it isn't a fan of Tori Amos.

[@PappyCaligula]

Prejudice is where you see someone for the first time and come to a conclusion. DISCERNMENT is a skill (not talent) learned over time. Certainly we can become rigid/stiff-necked BUT wisdom to tell good from bad is literally God-given. Look at her freakin' shoes. What are they, straight out of Harry Potter?. Why don't she just say she's into WICCAN and be done with it. Wiccan gals are all about the sexual stuff. BUT what kind of "spell" is she trying to weave on impressionable minds?

[@Jnth007]

she already has perfect teeth:)

[@janknuckey]

So much of Beekeeper and Doll Posse would have been improved with a few paired down moments...as for Abdominally Attracted To Sin! Don't even start me !!!

[@PappyCaligula]

Part Deux Like I said, Vicky Amos has talent, it's just she's gone completely out of her freakin' mind on this "inner goddess" BullSheis. This is so much crap that even "The View" and "Oprah" would yell BULLSHIT!!. I heard her live in concert and was quite impressed and thought her refusal to get involveed with "Lilith" proved her intelligence. BUT ever since she turned 40, my gawd, is the woman lost her nut OVER this anti-male/let spirits play thru me malarchy.

[@robertschrader]

I prefer the earlier solo versions. This one is too slow and reminiscent of a 2005-style performance.

[@PappyCaligula]

Atleast you challenge with intelligence not some dribblee goo like "I like her wig". Oh, I have every freakin' PRE-2000 CD that Tori Amos did..."Cornflake Girl" had it's relevance because it praised "Normalacy". Not Goth, Not Valley, just "normal" and yet non-apathetic. It also has a killer use of bass clef..."Father Lucifer" is an excellent toon..Even "SpaceDog" has it's humor and quite frankly "Blood Roses" I like because it tells the tale of a girl who's been with a male hustler. (continued)

[@Katastr0phic_Katicorn]

@PappyCaligula For someone so old and (I'm using this very lightly) "experienced" you are a very judgmental person. Intellect, in most cases, borders on being insane. Just because someone ejected that border from their life doesn't mean they are less intelligent, just perhaps a bit more insane. Some of us, who may or may not be insane, DO understand what she sings about and admires her strength as well as her continual fame, that you don't have. Thankfully.Those without talent, usually judge it.

[@Katastr0phic_Katicorn]

@PappyCaligula ...judgmental behavior?

[@VenusInPisces]

very nice song. I will be glad to see her normal hair back. She is such a beautiful woman, and these wigs so don't suit her, and I am confused by why she even is wearing them. She has always been such a natural beauty in the past. This seems totally out of character.

[@PappyCaligula]

See how you get all these EmoGurl Negatives for challenging their sheepleness . How the simple "truth" causes them to "kill the messenger". Keep on keeping on calling shit for what it is. SHIT. I also like the fact you combined Shitney and KM in the Bimbo factor. The only reason I cared for KM was her production crew's talent for the ability to actually turn chicken poop into chicken SOUP for once..Heh, I say the same about Hootie and the BlowBoyz. Creations, NOT talents. Victoria has talent,,,

[@PappyCaligula]

Okay, you dis me for proper sound technique eh? She's TOO f'n close to the microphone. The "P"s and "B, buh Bee" are too pronounced..I'm suprised the radio station/studio didn't give her a condenser and back it up a few inches..(The pattern can be set to reject the piano/background noise). She's practically giving the damn thing a blow-job for crying out tears. Good Neumann Or Pearl OR even some Sennheiser's would've sounded so much better than that damn SM 58. Big show, arena, different story.

[@PappyCaligula]

Well, Liz Phair sounds pop except she can't be played on pop radio (due to all the F-bombs). You're saying Liz has a better voice or Victoria?. All Amos does is grunt and groan and play in minor keys. Liz's songs do reflect life but in a WTF/Hell it was fun anyway attitude. Victoria just appeals to all these lil Emo Gurlz who drag their discontented, emasculated bo'friends to V.A's concerts. Look at all the lil Emo gurlz giving me and Sharlann the thumbs down for calling their bluff. PURE BS!

[@PappyCaligula]

You need some serious help if you think she OR her music are "beautiful"...She's technically proficient but what fire she once had in keyboard playing is gone. Her biggest schtick is to do a pulsating pelvis between her harpsichord and piano. She is acting out the role of "Mrs. Robinson" as she has faded into utter irrelevance!

[@PappyCaligula]

EMO is more like it. Liz Phair has ten times the relevance and listenability and for her humor (and very frequent use of expletives) 1000 times more musical. You don't have to like Liz to appreciate her..Tori Amos should be heckled off every stage/every time she spouts this meaningless BULLSHIT!. She is worse than Barbara Streisand trying to talk politics!

[@PappyCaligula]

Okay Miss Grammar...Yea, she's made more money than me selling her brand of hate which is all it is. She hates her Dad. She hates anything male. She rebells against God. That's enough to tell me she's a hater and anything she says comes from a tainted view. She's not healing anyone with her music. She is playing the Pied Piper, leading the children astray. I'd work to have others boycott/heckle her except she's doing a pretty good at "self-sabotage" all by herself.

[@PappyCaligula]

Crying uncle are you gurl?..Yea, sometimes emo gurl's are just in denial. Hating what they "Need and WANT" so bad.. Heh, wine gets better with age and so does....

[@nady22]

didnt like her hair like that

[@koolaidnhemlock]

satan rules!
