Чем-то ее музыка напоминает дисгармонию Бьйорк. Спокойные ритмы и красивый голос. Пианино, мало ударных, есть какая-то мистика и мрачность в её песнях. Вместе с тем балладовость, которую я не очень люблю. Но здесь она вопринимается как единство музыки, голоса, настроя и текстов. Великолепное единство. И хотя с английским у меня не все в порядке, я сижу второй день подряд, снова завороженная волшебством Tori Amos. Переведите кому не лень, пожалуйста, нээ?
"Pandora's Aquarium"
Pandora
Pandora's Aquarium
she dives for shells
with her nautical nuns
and thoughts you thought
you'd never tell
I am not asking you to believe in me
boy I think you're confused
I'm not Persephone
foam can be dangerous
with tape across my mouth
these things you do
I never asked you how
line me up in single file
with all your grievances
stare but I can taste
you're still alive below the waste
ripples come and ripples go
and ripple back to me
Pandora
Pandora's aquarium

you're still alive below the waste
ripples come and ripples go
and ripple back to me
I am not asking you to believe in me
boy I think you're confused
I'm not Persephone
she's in New York somewhere checking her accounts
the Lord of The Flies was diagnosed as Sound
"Jackie's Strength"
A bouvier till her wedding day
Shots rang out
The police came
Mama layed me on the front lawn
And prayed for Jackie's strength
Feeling old by 21
Never thought my day would come
My bridesmaids getting laid
I pray for Jackie's strength
Make me laugh
Say you know what you want
You said we were the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn
What black magic can do
Make me laugh
Say you know you can trun
Me into the real thing
So I show you some more
And I learn
Stickers licked on lunch boxes
Worshipping David Cassidy
Yeah I mooned him once
On Donna's box
She's still in recovery
Sleep-overs Beene's got some pot
You're only popular with anorexia
So I turn myself inside out
In hope someone will see
Make me laugh
Say you know what you want
You said we were the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn
What black magic can do
Make me laugh
Say you know you can trun
Me into the real thing
So I show you some more
centerAnd I learn
I got lost on my wedding day
Typical the police came
But virgins always get backstage
No matter what they've got to say
If you love enough you'll lie a lot
Guess they did in camelot
Mama's waiting on my front lawn
I pray
I pray
I pray
For Jackie's strength
Make me laugh
Say you know what you want
You said we were the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn
Jarkie's strength
