Question
Hello Nancy.I find your page inforamative.
I Love Tori Amos.I am sure she is the best contemporary pianist,also They way she bends her lyrics around the beat, is so harmonious its easy to get lost in the words and what she is saying.I have looked up her lyrics a few times and thaks to your site i could also get the meaning.
I do find that her lyrics appeal more to the female crowd,as a guy listening to her music,well you mite not like this next comment but i am glad she is straight.Otherwise i would have felt completely left out.
so i have given up in a way of finding her lyrics and just letting her soulful melody take me to a good place.
I think it was you that said in previous answer that Tori wants us to make the music our own.
Now to my question, has any of her songs appeared in a movie original soundtrack?


Answer
Hi Lee!

Your funny!!

She has had a few songs on soundtracks:

TOYS 1992 - Happy Workers
HIGHER LEARNING 1995 - Losing My Religion (REM cover)
PARTY OF FIVE 1996 - Blue Skies
GREAT EXPECTATIONS (the album) 1998 - Siren
GREAT EXPECTATIONS (the score) 1998 - Paradiso Perduto
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 2 2000 - Carnival
MONA LISA SMILE 2003 - You Belong to Me & Murder She Says

These are some great tracks!! Hope you get a chance to find them and listen....and let her take you to that good place once again :o)

Thanks for asking!!

I am always searching too :)

Experience

I found Tori through a friend 15 years ago. We went to a show and I was in awe at the energy and passion she poured into the crowd. I have seen her over 20 times and every show has been unique and special in thier own way. I own more CDs than I can count and quite a few books. I am quite a happy EWF!!
