If I had the money, the collection would be in my hands already.

I know what you mean about money :/ She just releases too dang much.

I'm still editing this review! I thought it was done, but it's not.

But can we fault her? No, we cant.

No, but maybe she could give some things out for free? I mean, she has how many houses now?

I'm probably going to have George at Checkered Records order this for for me this weekend... I'm a Tori compeltist and have most everything she's ever put out... however, for me it's more obsession that wanting quality work, because in my opinion while Little Earthquakes and Under the Pink are genius records, the rest of her output pales in comparison, save for the occassional jem like "Hey Jupiter"... the first two records were complete and perfect statements in my opinion, and her records after those have been very spotty at best. But Tori is Tori, and you have to love the girl... she's so bizzare, and I love the way that little girls flocked to her in the early 90s as their iconic queen... and how quickly two or three years later girls the same age looked up to Britney Spears in the same way as teen pop pushed people like Tori Amos and Sarah Mclachlan to the back of the record rack. I like the fact that Tori can still sell 500,000 records, and that perhaps now if she went on tour you wouldn't see girls showing up with angel ( ... )

Yeah, I think you'd really have to be a completest to buy the box set. It's not so expensive for a box set--I've seen it priced at $58; that seems pretty normal for a box set. However, if you don't like a lot of the songs on there (there are a lot of songs I've never cared for) then having alternate versions of those songs would be pointless ( ... )
