Tori & Armand Van Helden at the time, together. Both of them brilliant. 90's fine house music anthem! Beautiful

[@happymemories8873]

I never knew it was Armand Van Helden! "NYC Beat" is one of my ringtones & "Hear My Name" is one of my favorite songs

[@djStipe]

both genius!

[@happymemories8873]

djStipe definitely! Do you like Paul VanDyk too?

[@VillemarMxO]

That and Arman van Helden's remix of the Sneaker Pimp's Spin Spin Sugar were dual perfection. The clubs would go BERZERK when these two songs came on!

[@lS-qp6zq]

God bless or may the heavens bless them.

[@ignazs.5816]

When I got the maxi single of this song, I couldn't fathom how the original song was used to make this house anthem. There was hardly any connection, but what a great imagination by Armand Van Helden.

[@stantonvalberg9814]

I heard this remix first, but thought exactly the same thing when I heard the original.

[@markdafunky1]

I was thinking the same thing! Armand really did his magic on this one

[@JudgeHill]

He had a talent for it, that’s for sure

[@localcoaster8786]

Bring it close to my lips and it's gotta be big we danced for hours when it was originally released. Tori you are a legend we are still dancing grrrrlllllll.

I have been a listener of tori Amos for years she is very creative and a great artist with a imagination that's out of this world. She is beautiful

[@sashozimniy3173]

I heard it for the first time in 2023 and it's brilliant and super cool !!! Tori you are a genius and a beauty

[@Miawallce80]

I love it too! Fun fact... This isn't the original version it was remixed by armand van hesling after her record company sent it out to some DJS, tori actually feels that it truly wasn't her work, She loves this version and She won a Grammy for it.

[@kazman_6899]

This, Missing & Tha Crossroads are the greatest remixes ever. The originals are trash, and that's why they're so impressive. Completely different beasts.

[@ruthdixon7807]

armand's magic touch made tori amos a dancefloor wonder.

[@hernanbruno4178]

Un gran tema de los 90's. Época en que la música era la mejor. 1996 fue un excelente año para mí. Abrazos desde San Juan, Argentina 🇦🇷.

[@luigi_armandini]

I like both versions of this song. They're great

[@khaleel96]

When the DJ in the club fade to to this track for couple seconds the crowd went mental and more people join the dance floor because they know what the DJ going to play next 90s rule

[@bluelight017]

Searched for this after watching a Greggs advert. Love these tunes. Takes me back.

[@duchessofdark]

A classic always.

[@bartsaltzman7492]

I love this one! I always remember that this was my first experience with Professional Widow since my version of boys for Pele had this as the original mix. Love you Tori!

[@mazzieemily2003]

I can't believe that the entire time when I heard this as a kid. I actually thought they were singing "Honey, bring me toast and Mite" and that Mite was an abbreviation for Vegemite.

[@bastienmalek]

Music was fun

[@beansontoast4849]

I've been looking for this song for 20 years.

After all these years I’ve just realise this song is a massive innuendo. “ bring you close to my lips” “it’s got to be big” 😏😂😂

[@Yetaxa]

If you listen to the original song that's made even clearer

[@beverlygannon4141]

@@Yetaxa yes👍😁

[@jukingeo]

Really?!? With lines like "Honey, Bring it close to my lips, yeah," and "It's gotta be Big"? repeated over and over again, you didn't make the connection right away? I was DJ at the time, and I had to explain this as a reason why I wouldn't play the song over and over again. Probably one of the more explicit sexual songs out there without resorting using profane language. I would often use the lyrics when I was with my wife (then girlfriend at the time), "If I brought it close your your lips, will you make it big?"

[@Ohverture]

@@Yetaxa I think "even clearer" is an understatement. Explicitly clear would be a better way of putting it. "Peace, Love, and a........."

They remixed everything during these years lol my favorite was Celine Dion heart will go on I was like really?? Weird song to dance to

[@szemingwu1980]

I love the remix and even Tori has said in the commentary that she is a sucker for the bass and probably approved this remix. When it came out I thought for sure that I read on message boards (pre social media) that true Tori Amos fans didn’t love the remix and cheapen the original song. I could be wrong 🤷🏻‍♂️?

[@EstebanDeSade]

It seems like everyone here except for me loves this remix. I'm definitely one of those who loves the original and I absolutely hated this 'remix' when I first heard it and I STILL hate it.

Love this track, makes me feel 15 again, but have to ask myself, what the fuck were they smoking when they came up with this video concept?!

[@SuperGlenn1976]

the tile of this song 'professional widow' and the line in the song 'its gotta be big' gives me the impression that the professional widow is someone who marry rich blokes for money which is what the the phrase 'its gotta be big' referring to his bank account and then murders them so she can get her hands on his money. This is just my interpretation of the song.

[@7FatBears]

SuperGlenn1976 its about Courtney Love.

The Chemical Brother 3. Bomfunk MC's 4. Savage Garden 5. UB40 this just my opinion not pro DJ.....
