Tori Amos - I'm Not in Love (10cc)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. And then there was the time that one of them simply wouldn't return her calls to his office. So she called the number he did not know that she had, and she said to the woman who answered that this was so embarrassing but as he was no longer talking to her, could he be told that she was still waiting for the return of her lacy black underthings, which he had taken because, he said, they smelled of her, of both of them. Oh, and that reminded her, she said, as the woman on the other end of the phone said nothing, could they be laundered first, and then simply posted back to her. He has her address. And then, her business joyfully concluded, she forgets him utterly and forever, and she turns her attention to the next. One day she won't love you too. It will break your heart. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - Rattlesnakes (Lloyd Cole)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. She doesn't know who owned the jacket originally. Nobody claimed it after a party, and she figured it looked good on her. It says KISS, and she does not like to kiss. People, men and women, have told her that she is beautiful, and she has no idea what they mean. When she looks in the mirror she does not see beauty looking back at her. Only her face. She does not read, watch TV, or make love. She listens to music. She goes places with her friends. She rides rollercoasters but never screams when they plummet or twist and upside down. If you told her the jacket was yours she'd just shrug and give it back to you. It's not like she cares, not one way or the other. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - Happiness is a Warm Gun (The Beatles)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls (2001). She feels at home on the range; ear-protectors in position, man-shaped paper target up and waiting for her. She imagines, a little, she remembers, a little and she sights and squeezes and as her time on the range begins she feels rather than sees the head and the heart obliterate. The smell of cordite always makes her think of the fourth of July. You use the gifts God gave you. That was what her mother had said, which makes their falling out even harder, somehow. Nobody will ever hurt her. She'll just make her faint vague wonderful smile and walk away. It's not about the money. It's never about the money. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - Real Men (Joe Jackson)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. Some of the girls were boys. The view changes from where you are standing. Words can wound, and wounds can heal. All of these things are true. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - New Age (Velvet Underground)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. She seems so cool, so focused, so quiet, yet her eyes remain fixed upon the horizon. You think you know all there is to know about her immediately upon meeting her, but everything you think you know is wrong. Passion flows through her like a river of blood. She only looked away for a moment, and the mask slipped, and you fell. All your tomorrows start here. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - Time (Tom Waits)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls (2001). She is not waiting. Not quite. It is more that the years mean nothing to her any more, that the dreams and the street cannot touch her. She remains on the edges of time, implacable, unhurt, beyond, and one day you will open your eyes and see her, and after that, the dark. It is not a reaping. Instead, she will pluck you, gently, like a feather, or a flower for her hair.

Tori Amos - Heart of Gold (Neil Young)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. --sentences. Sisters, maybe twins, possibly cousins. We won't know unless we see their birth certificates, the real ones, not the ones they use to get ID. This is what they do for a living. They walk in, take what they need, walk out again. It's not glamorous. It's just business. It may not always be strictly legal. It's just business. They are too smart for this, and too tired. They share clothes, wigs, make-up, cigarettes. Restless and hunting, they move on. Two minds. One heart. Sometimes they even finish each other's -- -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - Enjoy the Silence (Depeche Mode)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. Thirty-five years a showgirl that she admits to, and her feet hurt, day in, day out, from the high heels, but she can walk down steps with a forty-pound headdress in high heels, she's walked across a stage with a lion in high heels, she could walk through goddamn Hell in high heels if it came to that. These are the things that have helped, that kept her walking and her head high: her daughter; a man from Chicago who loved her, although not enough; the national news anchor who paid her rent for a decade and didn't come to Vegas more than once a month; two bags of silicone gel; and staying out of the desert sun. She will be a grandmother soon, very soon. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Recorded in the Little Earthquakes era.

Tori Amos - '97 Bonnie and Clyde (Eminem)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. You know how it is when you love someone? And the hard part, the bad part, the Jerry Springer show part is that you never stop loving someone. There's always a piece of them in your heart. Now that she is dead, she tries to remember only the love. She imagines every blow a kiss, the make-up that inexpertly covers the bruises, the cigarette burn on her thigh -- all these things, she decides, were gestures of love. She wonders what her daughter will do. She wonders what her daughter will be. She is holding a cake, in her death. It is the cake she was always going to bake for her little one. Maybe they would have mixed it together. They would have sat and eaten it and smiled, all three of them, and the apartment would have slowly filled with laughter and with love. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - Strange Little Girl (The Stranglers)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. There are a hundred things she has tried to chase away the things she won't remember and that she can't even let herself think about because that's when the birds scream and the worms crawl and somewhere in her mind it's always raining a slow and endless drizzle. You will hear that she has left the country, that there was a gift she wanted you to have, but it is lost before it reaches you. Late one night the telephone will sing, and a voice that might be hers will say something that you cannot interpret before the connection crackles and is broken. Several years later, from a taxi, you will see someone in a doorway who looks like her, but she will be gone by the time you persuade the driver to stop. You will never see her again. Whenever it rains you think of her. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Tori Amos - I Don't Like Mondays (Boomtown Rats)


Featured on Tori's cover album, Strange Little Girls. Standing in the shower, letting the water run over her, washing it away, washing everything away, she realises that what made it the hardest was that it had smelled just like her own high school. She had walked through the corridors, heart beating raggedly in her chest, smelling that school smell, and it all came back to her. It was only what, six years, maybe less, since it had been her running from locker to classroom, since she had watched her friends crying and raging and brooding over the taunts and the names and the thousand hurts that plague the powerless. None of them had ever gone this far. She found the first body in a stairwell. That night, after the shower, which could not wash what she had had to do away, not really, she said to her husband, "I'm scared." "Of what?" "That this job is making me hard. That it's making me someone else. Someone I don't know any more." He pulled her close, and held her, and they stayed touching, skin to skin, until dawn. -- Written by Neil Gaiman.

Sage Francis - Come Follow Me


* Artist: Sage Francis * Album: Sick of Waiting Tables * Track: Come Follow Me * * Lyrics: The secretive type I like to creep in the night But I speak under my breath to be polite I'm talking about you Unconspicuous keep killing that sweet feeling The mystique's building I only speak to the freakishly sheep children For some cheap thrill thing I'll be willing to make purchases on my credit card As long as its of discrete billing I am expected to get murdered by bombs So I open up my mailbox with surgical tongs Rubbing antibacterial paste on my virginal palms Let me guess the littlest complex in Oedipus works for my moms I've heard of the song by the guy What's his face who say's those things I love that song I think its called ambiguity And the music be Handed to you and me In the form of animal cruelty I'm heading to the labratory To free some mice today Heading back to the lab To prove the skin color of Jesus Christ is gray Impressionable minds have nothing even nice to say Your brain is putty in my hands My man it seems just like some clay See I'm strange I'll take my time to rearrange Your frame of mind You'll want to be the Sage wait in line With the rest of them grape vines Swinging idiots You ain't busting no grape and making wine You ain't duplicating my rhyming bitch I'm older and dirtier than that bastard baby Jesus is Masterbating penises in a alley way where she just is Thinking that's enough and it is Asking can I live Is the way these asinine kids imply that <b>...</b>
