i discovered tori … i discovered tori in ’96 when i bought “boys for pele” by mistake really. i thought it was something completely different. i’ve been in love with her music ever since. everytime i hear her voice it feels like home.. in a weird way. does that make sense?
I actually don’t … I actually don’t care for the studio recording of this song. But I’m in love with the song live. There’s a purity in just the piano and her voice that really brings out the emotion. Strange how much I adore this version versus my sort of “ehh” opinion on the studio recording.
First time … First time listening to her…i thought she was like cheesy eighties music…boy was i wrong! some of her music is a little too estrogen heavy for me…but i still like it. And she is gorgeous too and in a very unique way.
If I had not gone … If I had not gone away to college, I would have never discovered Tori…I’d still be listening to corporate R&B. Thank God for her music!
Artists come and go … Artists come and go, but Tori is the one that I’ve carried in my heart for the past 15 years. I just get her.
To each his own, though….:o)
I agree! I prefer … I agree! I prefer her piano versions over the hyped up radio/album songs. Tori is amazing live, why distort that?
I wish American Doll Posse went more by that principle.
I was totally about … I was totally about to post something akin to that. I agree. It gives me chills because it makes me feel the loss myself of so many aspects of my larger human identity that I’ll never know now because they’re lost irretrievably to history, greed, and other seemingly eternal forces.
Thanks for posting. … Thanks for posting. My favorite from Scarlet’s Walk
I love & appreciate all the takes on the song. Just to add a more contemporary flare, the strong sense I get from this song is about identity. Things are created & named to signify something, & over time things (wants,desires,power,etc) compromise the glory of what they originally were. “Virginia” was meant to be all that. Listening to the last minute of the song, “Even you, Virginia” Tori connects with that loss, & transcends all views
my first concert by … my first concert by her she didn’t have the band (I was a little let down cause I wanted to hear all of “She’s Your Cocain”) … I like it when it’s split. Some songs need the extra support and engery she gets from her band mates. I’m glad she does both.
the tentive it …
the tentive it makes completely sense!!!she is my soul guide i simply adore her music.
Truly…a Goddess.
