Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

Under The Pink was Tori Amos' follow-up to the sensationally successful Little Earthquakes and demonstrates that she had by no means run out of faeries and demons to sport with. Amos herself describes it as her "impressionistic" album--her piano playing is perfectly attuned to the subtle, shifting colours of her lyrical moods on "Bells For Her", while "Past The Mission" indicates her growing use of distinctive arrangements to illustrate her songs. Highlights include "God", in which Amos demonstrates her often-missed humour, openly taunting the Almighty for his indifference to humanity, asking "Do you need a woman to look after you?" --David Stubbs

This review is from: Under the Pink (Audio CD)

"Under The Pink," which falls chronologically between "Little Earthquakes" and "Boys For Pele," is in many ways a representation of the best of both worlds; a "middle ground"...literally and figuratively...for Amos's art. Songs like "Pretty Good Year" and "Past The Mission" can be interpreted almost as continuation pieces to "Earthquakes;" ditto for the lovely "Cloud On My Tongue" and "Baker Baker" in a "Pele" context. There is wonderful unprecedented work here ("Cornflake Girl" and "Space Dog" ). Too, Amos's underappreciated gift for satire is alive and kicking, most notably in "Icicle" (an arch, poetic, and often uproariously funny song about masturbation and religious hypocrisy); and "Waitress,' which has the legendary lyrics: "I believe in peace/ I believe in peace, (...)). Just overall a great album; if it does have any flaws...which, for all we know, it might not....they hardly matter.

This review is from: Under the Pink (Audio CD)

At turns solemn, wide-eyed in wonderment, and whimsical this album is one of Tori's greatest accomplishemnts, in my opinion, and manages even to outdo a masterpiece of "Little Earthquakes".
From lilting to aggressive and utterly expressive, with both voice and piano, Tori Amos weaves a tapestry of intricate emotion and sends the heart fluttering stirring and even dancing as with "Cornflake Girl" and the hilarious songs "God" and "Icicle", and can make you quiet and contemplative with "Cloud On My Tongue" and "Bells For Her". And songs like "The Wrong Band" and "The Waitress" her sense of whimsical bliss is remarkable.
All the way through the epic conclusion "Yes, Anastasia", you will be left breathless and utterly in love with the music each time.
This is one album you absolutely shouldn't miss out on, by an artist you shouldn't ignore.

5.0 out of 5 stars As she slips further and further away...
This record came out years ago, and my poor, battered copy has the scratches and dents to prove it. So why now would I want to spend my time writing a review? Read more
