In case you missed it, Tori Amos released DELUXE 2CD Editions of two of her best received, most popular albums – Little Earthquakes (1992) and Under The Pink (1994) on April 14th through Rhino records. Both releases feature completely remastered versions of the original album PLUSlive tracks, B-Sides, covers and other rarities, including a cover of Nirvana‘s “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”

As a gay man, I feel sort of guilty that I’m not a more MASSIVE Tori Amos fan. Don’t get me wrong, I think she’s MEGA-TALENTED and of course I have some favorite songs (albeit, some of her more commercial cuts; “Silent All These Years,” “A Sorta Fairytale,” and “Professional Widow” – The Armand Van Helden remixes) I just never fully got on the bandwagon. That being said, I feel like this would all change if I saw her live. The problem for me was the first (and only) Tori Amos album I ever bought – American Doll Posse (2007) – a concept album. While the concept itself was intriguing (Tori assuming 5 different female personalities, inspired by Greek mythology) the music did not connect with me (although the album artwork sure did). After that album, I reverted back to my passive appreciation of Amos and her rich back catalog.

With the release of these classic, iconic Tori Amos albums I find myself inspired to give her another go. I love the unique quality of her voice, I love her ability to tell a story and send a powerful message. I think maybe I need a little Tori Amos in my life.

To celebrate the release of these remastered GEMS, I’m giving one lucky resident of the U.S. or Canada a chance to win. Enter between now and Friday (May 8th) by filling out the form below and telling me your FAVORITE TORI AMOS song of all time. It can be from Little Earthquakes, Under The Pink or any other album from her catalog. GOOD NIGHT & GOOD LUCK.
