Pros: Exceptional sample of Tori's Talent Cons: There aren't any
Being a big fan of female musicians, and the feminist approach that quite a few of them take, it wasn't long before Tori Amos topped my list of favorites. This particular cd is consistently energetic while at the same time adding a touch of melancholy in...

Pros: It has Tori's powerful, yet sweet voice Cons: She concentrated more on electronic sound than piano
I bought From the Choirgirl Hotel about 2 months ago and I found it very catchy. I was used to the "sit-down piano" music and raw vocals that Tori always delivered, but I got something different, but almost as good, I think. You still hear that...

Pros: Yeah right. Cons: It hurts.
Oh please stop this wretched noise that's pounding in my ears. What is that, a piano? What's that whimpering that's sloppily tripping along with it? That's actually a human voice? Dear god, something has to be done about this racket. :::melodic...

Pros: Great songs! Great lyrics! Best ever Cons: It costs money. It should be distributed free so everyone could have it.
I bow down and Tori's feet and pray every day for another CD to be released from this goddess! I would have her children! Wait, I'm getting carried away. But you'd understand if you went out right now and bought this CD and popped it in the CD player...

Pros: Great new sounds Cons: a little short, maybe?
Tori Amos' From the Choirgirl Hotel is certainly a wonderful album. With a slightly different style form Boys for Pele, Tori goes with a more Guitar sound than her previous harpischord and piano sound. Songs like Spark and Raspberry Swirl have a...

Pros: Excellent lyrics and musicals Cons: The songs are musicaly not very diverse, though the lyrics make up
This album really got my angst ridden juices flowing. I love emotional music, and this album is absolutely filled with emotion. The songs have a truly haunting element to them, and they are all completely entrancing. Her lyrics are engrossing and...

Pros: Cohesive, unique style of songs Cons: What cons? Tori is a demi-Goddess!
What starts with a Spark ends in New York somewhere, album is an understatement when from the Choirgirl Hotel truly is a journey through sound. The album is dark, strong, and powerful. Spark is the first song, it's lyrics have a positive messages... you...

Pros: Keeps interests, Broad music styles, Kick butt songs. Cons: maybe too evolved for some listeners.
Tori Amos is one of the most moving and musical artists of our time, and the album "From the Chiorgirl Hotel" is in my opinion, her best cd. From the first notes, to the last it is a rollercoaster of emotion and spiritual energy flowing...

Pros: lyrics, dynamic production, consistency Cons: lyrics, occasional lack of melody
Ditching the overindulgences of 1996's "Boys for Pele," platinum-selling cult figure Tori Amos immerses her piano-pop in a mostly tasty mix of studio effects and live-band dynamics this time around. The result is her most consistent album...

Pros: Emotionally open and beautiful music Cons: Lyrics a bit explicit
Extraordinary solo artist and piano soloist, Tori Amos, has yet made another immense impact on society. After buying "From the Choir Girl Hotel," I had to go back to the music store, even with my low budget, and get "Little...

Pros: Polyrhythm City Cons: Depressing
Have I got issues with this album. Ok lets look at the facts. Tori Amos is a very short person. My 11 year old sister would have to look down to say hi. And unlike my coleauge critic Kiljoi and contrary to most Toriphile belieifs, I am tired of hearing...
