yeah I was coming to post that  it's so ****** up. How can I listen to Space Dog anymore without hearing that line and cringing?

Thunder wishes it could be the snow

Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

 

 

 

For whatever reason (as Tori songs usually do) Purple People burrowed into brain after years of ignoring it and I kinda think this deserved a spot on DDL. So good and well within her current vocal range.

Disagree. I feel like Beekeeper just needed a producer and editor. I know it's been litigated to DEATH by fans for the past 20 years as her downfall moment but everything comes down to the convoluted concept and barren production. Her 2005 performances are actually across the board better than the Scarlets tour ones so she didn't really 'lose it.' Doll Posse is a different story... 

 

 

Like this COULD BE a Scarlet's Walk song. 

 

And it's crazy that Garlands wasn't on the album when **** like Hoochie Woman was. If she was seriously attached to every song I feel like it would've been way better received with a 12 track album followed by a B-sides compilation ala Scarlet's Hidden Treasures. 

 

Every Tori fan I know has their own playlist version of her bloated post-Scarlet albums.

Tori is the original picsart cover queen

Makes me cry.  So many beekeeper songs thrive in solo piano form like that. 

when someone finally organizes the Tori Amos discography rate 

 

 

the way she can just take a random song from her discography and make it new and interesting. i love the long intro

Crazy has been that girl  but yeah her lives are often almost entirely new experiences.

 

My fave version of that song:

 

 

Also her dad croaked yesterday, stream this masterpiece!

Fair and generous assessment for that album. I don't despise it, but it does not satisfy despite its promise. In true Tori fashion this era had great b-sides/unreleased tracks that stomp the main tracklist. Garlands is one of her best! As a fan of Scarlet, I would have been fine if Beekeeper was a summery, coastal themed sequel with tracks like Jamaica Inn, Indian Summer, and Seaside.

Ophelia your secret is safe
Ophelia you must break the chain
Some girls will get their way
Some fathers will control from the grave
Ophelia you must remember

 

happy birthday to this legendary mother, who's inspired me so greatly in my own journey as a musician (particularly this year which is the year I began fully stanning her)  she's one of the main reasons I've been writing all my new songs on my keyboard

 

sorta kinda one of the best songs of all time if you sit down and really think about it.

I once called this her most sonically experimental and I stand by it (give or take Zero Point)
