Pros: Wonderful piano playing, emotional songs
Cons: It's her only good album
I was first introduced to Tori Amos when she was interviewed for a news magazine show. I don't remember if it 60 Minutes or Dateline because it doesn't really matter. As I listened to Amos talk, I decided I had to buy this album.
We had so...

Pros: Mind boggling words, wonderful music, and just a wonderful album!
Cons: She didn't win a Grammy for it!
Every finger in the room is pointing at me…
That is how I felt when I first posted my epinion about Little Earthquakes. I realize now looking back that the post was horrible, and not what I have come to expect from other...

Pros: emotionally uplifting, spiritually challenging and musically rewarding
Cons: emotionally draining
Don't ask me to listen to this album without getting leaky. You might just as well try to tell Forrest that life isn't like a box of chocolates. When I feel my soul is in need of a good old fashioned cleansing, this CD is one that I reach for, and the...

Pros: One of the finest voices in the business; inventive and emotional piano playing.
Cons: Not a single thing wrong with this album. This is musical perfection.
I've been cruising the Epinions music site for several months now, and have regularly noticed that Tori Amos's Little Earthquakes is at the top of the most recommended album list.
This is the only Tori Amos CD I have. Having...

Pros: profound lyrics that evoke emotions; Tori is just incredibly talented!
Cons: none!
The first time heard a Tori Amos song was at a friend's poetry reading when I was in college. The reading was titled "As the Winter Takes One More Cherry Tree," which is a phrase from the song Girl. Before the reading, my...

Pros: excellent imagery, observations, music. Tori knows how to get to the listener's psyche.
Cons: ever wonder if it's calculated?
There was a time when I would listen to every song on "Little Earthquakes" unable to move because I was so struck by the piercing truth of the lyrics, the way Tori sang (screamed) them, and the innocent white noise of the piano that...

Pros: honest and insightful lyrics
Cons: None
Flashback to 1992 - I'm 17 years old. I'm just coming from my awkward teenage years, heading straight for my awkward adult years. I hear a voice over the radio one night, singing the very popular Nirvana song 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'. She sings with...

Pros: A variety of songs that are suprisingly good
Cons: some of the lyrics
This was my first Tori album, so I didn't really know what to expect. All I knew is that various Web pages I'd visited had given me this name for several months now, and the samples on amazon.com didn't sound that bad. So I figured that I should give it...

Pros: Beautiful piano, inspiring and haunting vocals, stark and very passionate lyrics
Cons: Not accessible to everyone, can be triggering.
In the summer of 1992, I was pondering my future. I was 18 years
old, getting ready to leave my small hometown for the thrill and excitement of college life a few hours away. I also had become influenced by my friends who already were in...

Pros: Awesome debut from Tori Amos
Cons: none
In the early 90s, Alternative rock was dominating the music scene by bringing back songs about honesty and other issues. Though the scene was dominated by all-male bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam, there were some women artists breaking through and...

Pros: Beautiful vocals, fantastic lyrics and piano playing
Cons: It ends
Some may dismiss Tori Amos as a flaky, fairy-loving, tree-hugging space cadet, but to do so is to neglect one of the greatest talents in modern music. Tori Amos creates music of great emotion and imagination that will touch every person with a heart(and...

Pros: It's a Tori album!! Is there anything else that needs to be said?!?!
Cons: If you don't like her style, you will probably hate her music.
The first Tori album I ever heard or bought was Under the Pink (like not 'In the Pink'-get it!??!) and I still love it. But the first time I ever heard the Winter single off this album, I was moved to tears. It was a little while later...

Pros: A simply beautiful album
Cons: May be too deep for some people
If I believed in such things as "desert island discs" (the answers to the question "What five CDs would you take to a desert island?"), this would be one of them. It got me hooked on Tori - actually, it was this CD that got me...

Pros: Wonderful vocals, poetry, and piano
Cons: None
Tori uses her music to release stories and experiences of her life. Speaking from the soul Tori is an enchanting relief from the bubble gum songs of today.
This album features the well known "Me and a Gun" (the story of her rape), the hit...

Pros: The best Tori Amos Album!!
Cons: None!!
The release of "Little Earthquakes" was probably one of the best things to happen to the music business at the time. A woman had taken the center stage with a supreme album, with the ability to rival anyone around her. Her own emotions were...
