怪怪少婦Tori Amos
怪怪少婦Tori Amos(多莉‧艾莫絲)
美國歌手、鋼琴家和詞曲作者。
1963年8月22日出生於北卡羅萊納州。
以下為維基百科的簡介:
她的歌曲旋律屬於非主流,歌詞涵蓋的範圍很廣,包括性、宗教、父系社會制度、女性主義和個人的不幸經歷等。
她從小接受古典鋼琴樂訓練,流暢的鋼琴曲和意識流般的歌詞在國內吸引了一群忠實的歌迷,國外也有很多癡迷者,很多人經常把她和曲風相似的前輩凱特‧布希放在一起比較。
聽說王菲、孫燕姿和王菀之分別在不同時期翻唱過她的”Silent All These Years”

我是從Boys for Pele開始聽的
因為對一首MV “Caught a Lite Sneeze”印象很深
(MV可參考http://hk.youtube.com/watch?v=QiZpUbdxVNw)
才認識到這位女歌手的
專輯From the Choirgirl Hotel也不錯
個人推薦歌曲是” Liquid Diamonds”、” Pandora's Aquarium”
至於To Venus and Back有兩片CD
我非常喜愛”live still orbiting”那一塊(不喜歡另一片)
整張都改編的很好聽
但是之後的專輯就聽不慣了
沒時間仔細聽
最佳推薦歌曲:Liquid Diamonds
(或可搭配某人自製影片http://hk.youtube.com/watch?v=GNlnW4CuImo)
surrender then start your engines
you’ll know quite soon what my mistake
was
for those on horseback or dog sled
you turn on at the bend in the road
I hear she still grants forgiveness
although I willingly forgot her
the offering is molasses and you say
I guess I’m an underwater thing so I
guess I can’t take it personally
I guess I’m an underwater thing I’m
liquid running
there’s a sea secret in me
it’s plain to see it is rising
but I must be flowing liquid diamonds
calling for my soul
at the corners of the world
I know she’s playing poker with the rest of the stragglers calling for my soul at the corners of the world I know she’s playing poker and if your friends don’t come back to you and you know this is madness a lilac mess in your prom dress and you say I guess I’m an underwater thing
