I developed two great loves around the same time -- Tori Amos and Pearl Jam.
They may seem incongruous, but actually I think they're a lot alike in some respects, and perfectly different in others.
For Tori's birthday, what are your top five Tori songs (you can include covers, she's as deft at them as Pearl Jam is!)

    In no particular order:

    Silent All These Years
    Professional Widow
    Icicle
    Father Lucifer
    Yes, Anastasia
    Winter
    Mohammed, My Friend
    God
    Waitress
    Angie
    *Danny Boy

    *Tori is a sweetheart. I went to both Tampa Theatre shows in 1994, front row for the second show, and she talked to me a lot between shows and gave me a big hug (especially for a tiny person) before going back to get ready for her second show.

    For her encore, she dedicated "Danny Boy" to me.

    I know, right, Yarden?? Father Lucifer was very pissed at me for not including her. As was Doughnut Song, Cooling and Sweet the Sting.

    Bells for her is my favorite song. She has to play it like the album though!
