Note to Self
Oct. 14th, 2001 11:12 amTori Amos sucks. UGH! Never download her stuff again. Not even if she's doing covers of songs you love.
OK, so I was reading the entertainment magazine we get and they were going on about Tori Amos's new CD "Strange Little Girls" where she covers men's songs so that she can bring out the "true meaning" or.. whatever.
For the most part, I strongly dislike Tori Amos. I think I like only one of her songs (Silent All These Years) and the rest of her stuff is TERRIBLE.
So, my interest, piqued.. i load up audiogalaxy and decide to give a song I try.
Now, personally.. I LOVE "Enjoy the Silence" it's my favorite Depeche Mode song ever... I have the original and various "Techno" and "Dance" versions.
So I tried Tori Amos's...
UGH!
She doesn't GET it!
First off... let's go through the simple facts. Women CAN NOT sing Men's Songs. Let me qualify this statement.. Men Singers don't sing ONLY Men Songs.. there are Men songs and others..
Let's take Eminem as the perfect example. Take a song like the real Slim Shady or Stan and this is an OTHER song.
Then take the one he wrote on the last album about beating and killing his wife. I forget the actual name. This is a man's song. This is a song that women CAN NOT relate to. Period. (This is probably a song that women don't WANT to relate to.)
This is a song that a woman CAN NOT sing and do it RIGHT.
it's like.. i will survive. the gloria gaynor song.
No man can really sing it.. not right.
So.. anyways... where was I?
Oh yes, my point is Tori Amos sucks.
