To Venus and Back by Tori Amos

Pros: Good Songs; 2 TORI CD's
Cons: NONE

Wow, Tori Amos has done it again, with two times the power. The two-cd set, TO VENUS AND BACK, is amazing. The set contain a studio recorded album and a live collection from Tori's Plugged '98 World Tour. The first album contains two awesome hits. They...

Pros: read the review
Cons: ...

It's no secret that I'm a Toriphile and I pretty much worship or like all the albums I have of her, but because I started getting into another artist (Bjork), I had to put my Tori collection on hold. Around Christmas, I realized that I haven't bought a ...

Pros: best songs ever, by Tori Amos
Cons: having to spend the extra money for the unwanted live stuff

Though not a fan of every single thing she's ever done (Boys for Pele, most notably), Tori Amos has got to be one of the most talented singer, songwriter, pianists in the business today. She has a voice with unbelievable range, depth, and clarity, and a...

Pros: Beautiful, full of feeling
Cons: Sorry, None

Tori Amos has once again stunned me with yet another mesmerizing cd. Even better yet this is a double disk.
Originally supposed to be a collection of be sides, To Venus and back is one part live and the other more great songs.This cd is truly...

Pros: Tori always hits close to home with her lyrics
Cons: Not for avid "pop" fans

Tori Amos has done it again. Her new album, "To Venus and Back" is an album both Tori fanatics and the general public will love. She has transcended her original angst and come out with an album that is rich in rhythm, musical style, and as...

Pros: musicianship, crossover pop
Cons: not long enough

I have always had a deep appreciation for Tori Amos's music, but I have to say that her new studio album on To Venus And Back is perhaps one of the best examples of what pop music could be, or should be. Looping between hard rock, folk, pure pop and...

Pros: Great Songs & A Live Cd!!!
Cons: Nope.

When I heard that Tori Amos was going to release an album in 1999, I nearly passed out because she had just released one the year before and I wasn't expecting to hear from her for a good two years, thankfully I didn't have to wait long. "To Venus...

Pros: New music from a great artist
Cons: None

Tori Amos' "To Venus and Back" is certainly above all one of the best albums that this veteran of music has put out. This two cd set is comprised of her new cd, subtitled orbiting, and a collection of live music from all of her other albums....

Pros: more of Tori's amazing singing and songwriting with the addition of an incredible band
Cons: a bit of a departure from Tori's previous albums, but worth a try

"A Dent in the Tori Net Universe" was right when it chose it's title. It is but one of hundreds of sites on the web devoted to the "girl and her piano". This site, however, is a cut above the rest. With up-to-date "tori...

Pros: 2 cds, awesome songs
Cons: a little expensive, but worth every penny

I have liked Tori Amos for a while now. I have tons of her cds and biographies and videos and all sorts of fun stuff. I am not really sure why...but I connect 100% with everything that she sings and says. I can listen to her music over and over again...

Pros: New sound, same Tori
Cons: None

This album has been somewhat controversial among the fans that have stuck with Tori Amos through Boys for Pele and Choirgirl Hotel. In To Venus and Back, she has presented us with another new style. Every album of hers has a different, unique feeling...

Pros: food-for-thought lyrics, different arrangments, two albums in one
Cons: no "girl and a piano" stuff, if you're a stickler

Tori Amos has been a thriving element in my life for 3 years. In comparison to many fans, my “adoration” has been short-lived. Maybe that’s why I don’t judge her so harshly over her newer albums. In some of her past albums she’s experimented with...

Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

Have you ever been stirred by an album...or even a song? Not just moved. Not just emotional. Really stirred up inside so that everything inside of you comes rushing out. When sparking up the laser on your CD player to spin this record, be prepared....

Pros: An interesting new sound!
Cons: Doesn't have the hurt, scared girl everyone fell in love with - this is the music of a woman who has healed and isn't afraid to show it.

Tori Amos might not be from Venus, but her new album To Venus and Back is sent straight from heaven. This double-CD set includes one CD with 10 all-new tracks and one CD with 13 of her most powerful live tracks.

...

Pros: It's Tori, what can I say?
Cons: none

I “shivered with antici………..PATION” for this Tori CD and I did with all the ones before it. It was what I was expecting, but at the same time, NOT what I expected. With her previous release, from the choirgirl hotel, Tori got into electronica and a...
