Make-Up Provided by MAC



In July of 2008, during a visit to the West Coast to appear at Comic-Con in San Diego, Tori Amos stopped by Los Angeles for a business lunch. During the meeting a woman passed Tori's table, talking animatedly on the phone. When somebody told her Doug Morris was on the other end of the line, Amos interrupted the woman on the phone and said, "Please send Doug my love." A few seconds later, Amos was talking to MorrisÑher mentor at Atlantic Records during the early ninetiesÑfor the first time in fourteen years. A few hours later, Amos began writing a new batch of songs. A few weeks later, Amos had entered into a new partnership deal with Morris and Universal. On May 19, 2009, "Abnormally Attracted To Sin," the tenth Tori Amos studio album, will be released on Universal Republic.

Amos describes "Abnormally Attracted To Sin" as "really handmade. I wanted to make a treasure, something people will value." "AATS" is an elaborate feast made from homegrown stock, offered up to a generation fed on small meals made with cheap ingredients. Like all of Tori's albums since "Boys For Pele," "AATS" was recorded at Martian Studios in Cornwall, England by Tori's husband Mark Hawley and his partner Marcel van Limbeek. The center of the album is Amos's voice, and her Bšsendorfer piano, locking in with her touring and recording band of the past five years: guitarist Mac Aladdin, bassist Jon Evans and her longtime drummer and rhythmic foil, Matt Chamberlain.

"AATS" is Amos at her most passionate and most comfortable. In the best way possible, "AATS" could have come out at any point between her 1992 solo debut, "Little Earthquakes," and 2009. The object itself, though, is a state-of-the-art Christmas present. The packaging shows Amos in a variety of guises, photographed in various rooms of a plush, cream-colored Victorian hotel room by glamour expert Karen Collins. The sound of the album is typically detailed and wide, dominated by dark, rich reds and hints of silver. ("I want to make audio mescaline," Tori said.)

One of the most valuable parts of "AATS" is the bonus DVD, an element that is often a lame attempt to jack up the sticker price in other instances. Not this time. The DVD contains sixteen "visualettes" directed by Christian Lamb, who filmed Amos and her band during the "American Doll Posse" tour.

"Christian jumped on the bus and made daily montages of the band's life on the road, using music from the live shows as a soundtrack to the footage," Tori said. "When I saw what he had done, the new songs started to come to me." The visualettes are not videos in the traditional senseÑthere is no lip-syncing. Amos thinks of them as "silent movies," citing early movie star Mary Pickford as a reference point. Some of Tori's characters from "American Doll Posse" appear in footage Lamb shot over the past year and a half. Some visualettes are interspersed with live footage from the tour, while others were filmed to work with the songs that would come to her later. Rather than literal visual representations of lyrics, Lamb's images are complicated and integral to the logic of "AATS."

"AATS" is made up songs I wrote on the road watching Christian's footage, and the songs I wrote after spending some time in California, which is where I had lived before Little Earthquakes was released," Amos explained.

The album title is a line from 'Guys and Dolls,' originally spoken by the character Sarah Brown. The phrase came to Tori before she recorded with the band, but after she had written the songs. Sin, in this case, is not necessarily what you're thinking of.

"I wanted to really investigate how we're controlled by the threat of despair," Amos said. "I wanted to look at powerÑhow we think and how you can reclaim the right to think for yourself, to uncover what you believe in as a spiritual, sexual creature. You don't need the approval of your family, or of their religion. You can think, 'Wait a minute, I'm a spiritual being. Just because I like gold handcuffs doesn't mean I'm not a spiritual being. These definitions are not for my mother to make about me.' What I am exploring with this record is power, and giving it away with your thinking. How do we become controlled?"

"I'm a minister's daughter. The power of the church is insidious, and it permeates everything," Amos explained. "A lot of what the Church discusses is not about the compassionate path of Christ, it's about what kind of lifestyle is acceptable and approved of by the Church when god knows what they're doing behind closed doors. You have a lot of people waking up every morning who feel paralyzed to act because of these judgments. All around us people are not only experiencing physical bondage but emotional and mental bondage behind perfectly groomed lawns. Inside acceptable addresses the definition of bondage is perversely explored with those we know only too well. Moving from the personal to the political, "Strong Black Vine" investigates the effect of religious intolerance, another form of bondage."

The mood for much of "AATS" is dark but charged, like a late night conversation (or confession) held over several bottles of wine. "Lady In Blue" builds steadily, confidently, deliberately, as Tori sings about a woman who wronged a man, who needs a light, who wants to play with the boys. While unpacking the story of those without power, she reintroduces women who have all the power they want. Tori, however, generally focuses her songs on those who feel like they have no power, or aren't entitled to any.

"There are so many young women who come to shows with scarring," Tori said. "This trend has seemed to gain momentum over the last few years. I wanted to crawl inside self-destruction and rewire it in songs like 'Ophelia.'"

"Ophelia" is a waltz in the classic Amos mold, her voice in its softer range, a gentle conjuring folded in between all the fire and shadow. Amos here sounds here less like a character and more like herself, speaking to another generation: "Ophelia you must break the chain. Some girls will get their way, some fathers will control from the grave." "Maybe California" is a different form of empathy. For this song, Amos recreates the story of a woman in California who thinks "nothing is making sense anymore" and wants to jump off a cliff. (It seems inappropriate to spoil the ending.) In both songs, characters are struggling to find a reason to move forward.

"'Ophelia' is about choosing to be with someone who doesn't respect you and doesn't value you. That leads us right back to what sin really is. What is sinful? It's not what the church says to me is sinful. It's me degrading myself, or somebody else wanting to degrade me and me allowing it to happen. We, as women, could choose to walk away from so much of what's going on, but it seems as if we're not making that choice, and I'm asking myself all the time 'Why? What have we, the older generation of women, not done?' Who would have thought that we could regress to this point?"

"AATS" doesn't take the regression lightly, and fights back as hard as Amos has ever fought. The title track moves over an impressively thick synthesizer line Amos wrote and played, feeling a bit like club music that's wandered out into a dark side street to think for a moment.

"People are being forced to question what they believe in," Amos said. "We're being brought back to questions which make up our foundation: 'Who am I? What do I really believe in?'"

"AATS" is the work of someone who knows, with a fierce certainty, what she believes in. Anybody, whether it's a newcomer or a lifelong member of Tori's phenomenal fanbase, will feel that certainty.

"Passion is a seducer, and this music is passionate. Even though somebody might be drinking beer, if they see the color of that red wine, it looks like blood, it looks so deliciousÑthey might just have to taste it. I'm good old red wine. By letting myself age I think I'm better for drinking beginning in 2009."

GIVE
So you heard
I crossed over the line
Do I have regrets?
Well, not yet
There are some,
some who give Blood
I give love
I give

Soon before the sun
before the sun
begins to rise
I know that I
I must give
so that I
I can live

There are some,
some whose give
twists itself to take
they mis-take
who, what made up the line
some say it was pain
or was it shame

Soon before the sun
before the sun
begins to rise
I know that I
I must give
so that I
I can live
Some
Some who give Blood.
I give love
I give



WELCOME TO ENGLAND
"Do a dance for me."
Baby it is late still you pour me
a tall one...
"Go on, let the liquid take off what you're on.
You've been down before...."
Boy, not like this.
I'm in Quicksand I am sinking fast
"Perfect," he laughed, "cause your other half has
got himself a Devil's access------- Welcome to England,"
he said, "Welcome to my world. You better bring your own sun
sweet girl. You gotta bring your own sun now don't you forget -----
you bring your own sun, just enough for everyone."

Heels on. Go on.
Bang a Tango but do not get tangled
Who can stay strong? when they only give us lies to lean on
When your heart explodes is it deathly cold?
You must let the colors violate the
Blackness
There is a magic world parallel
so leave your daily
hell----- "Welcome to England,"
he said, "Welcome to my world...."
It’s not a question if I can
Fight by your side and withstand
Anything but,
I forgot that you said, "Girl if you come....
you better bring your sun.
Sweet girl, you gotta bring your sun
Now don't you forget you bring your sun----
Just enough for
everyone
for everyone
“Welcome to England"

CURTAIN CALL
ebony beauty
pass this shade
the looking glass reflects
then a voice calls me back,
"this is just circumstance it is not
personal", oh no it never is.
then you ram your hand in your bag
for a little friendly substance

By the time you're 25
they will say, "you've gone and blown it".
By the time you're 35, I must confide,
you will have blown them all
Right on cue just act surprised
when they invite you to take
your curtain call
you climbed China's wall
your
curtain call

I have done what I've done
and it has the ultimate consequence
then a voice calls me back,
"this is not business, no,
its more like spiritual"
is that what it is
Then you ram your hand in your bag
for a little protection

By the time you're 25
they will say, "you've gone and blown it."
By the time you're 35, I must confide,
you will have blown them all
Right on cue just act surprised
when they invite you to take
your curtain call
you climbed China's wall
your curtain call
they closed China’s wall
curtain call

the looking glass reflects

THAT GUY
That Guy
Swears he will walk
and carries a chip as big as New York
That Guy
at night makes me scream
and smashes the best possibilities
That Guy
Just brings his war
home, she cries, “why can’t Daddy leave his war outside?”
That Guy
When he wants can love
like no other love
until the darkness comes
Do we make up to break up?
Do we break up then wake up?
To cuts instead of kisses
To cuts instead 
Instead
Instead
That Guy
Swears he will walk
and carries a chip as big as New York
That Guy
Cannot seem to see
there’re no other guys
but the one he used to be
Do we make up to break up?
Do we break up then wake up?
To cuts instead of kisses
To cuts instead 
Instead
Instead
Will we make up?
Will we break up?
Will I wake up with, with
That Guy
That Guy
That Guy

ABNORMALLY ATTRACTED TO SIN
Impeccable peccadillo
You are off your guard
Pussy willow calls there by the church,
“don’t go in if you are abnormally attracted to sin”
Abnormally attracted to sin
She may be dead to you
But her hips sway a natural kind of faith
That could give your lost heart
A warm chapel
You’ll sleep in her bell tower
And you will simply wake
Abnormally attracted to sin
Abnormally attracted to sin
Impeccable peccadillo
I know who you are
Tales of longing sway
Lost without a verse
Hymns of swing lay low
there by the church,
“don’t go in if you are abnormally attracted to sin”

500 MILES
He walked 300 miles
Just to bring me bread
His body like a sculpture
Almost decorated
and I’ll wake him as the dawn does
and we’ll break it on the bus
saying, “this was made for us, love”

In lovers communion for 500 miles
And in 500 miles will he break
Break me again?
In lovers communion for 500 miles
And in 500 miles will we brake
Even break

Step it up
Grab your phone
Get your suitcase
There is no time to waste
A big adventure awaits
Sad news, France suffered a late snow
The blooms break through the ice

In San Francisco
A guitar man finally confessed
He left that actress
Over the lakes with hearts touched by frost
We fought in the Land of the Midnight Sun
I lost myself
I lost myself

I walk 300 miles
Just to bring
To bring him bread
In love some gifts are simple
Others I underrated
So I’ll wake him as the dawn does
And we’ll face what any lovers must
Blueness pales within a flames lust

In lovers communion for 500 miles
And in 500 miles will he break
Break me again?
In lovers communion for 500 miles
And in 500 miles will he brake
Even break
will we brake
Even break
Brake
Even brake
Don’t slow down
We might not even break

 



MARY JANE
Then he said, “Mom I want to forna…
I mean formulate and discover the realms of the unknown
with Mary Jane
After all you’ll be away for the weekend
Just please consent
I need a friend”

I admit your puberty was somewhat strange
Could this be fixed with Mary Jane?
Mary Jane Mary Jane Mary Jane Who?

So I said, Son you want to permeate
And discover the realms of the unknown
With Mary Jane
After all the other boys that are your age
They only wake to medicate

Do I know her family?
Is she even mannerly when she’s out in society?
“She even bakes”
She even bakes?
“These odd brownies”
Mary Jane Mary Jane Mary Jane Who?

Then he said, “I believe in her family,
On her maternal side there was a
Dr. Tetrahydrocannabinol Pure Isomer Dronabinol
Mary Jane Who.



STARLING
Starling you were right I am the jealous kind
whoever would have guessed
Starling now I am shut out and confined
even within my nest

what, what does it take to make it through another day?
if a feather lined with his words becomes a blade

Starling when he screams he screams in black and white
just like the magpie
shattered night then I woke
not to a lonely lark but to a raven's cry

if a feather lined with his words becomes a blade
then what, what will it take to make it through another day?

so when they play, play the song
sing along
it could be your turn to shine
if you know the lines
hey what's that you say
"You can find, find him on line
most of the time these days"
"Is that right," I say.

you were right Starling



FAST HORSE
How can I be drunk?
You strike with dry poison
I am possessed
Still engaged in some kind of advanced shackling

Girl you got to find you the man who
can smoke this out, Bad Medicine
Girl you got to find you the man who
can smoke this out, Good Medicine would say----

You got you a Fast horse darlin'
But all you do is complain it ain't
a maserati.
You had a soul that you left back in Memphis
but your mama ain't New York she is pure
Tennessee

On a desert High-way
I am struck by my own rage
Time-bomb in his palm a finger-apple
augments this advanced shackling

Girl you got to find you the man who
can smoke this out, Bad Medicine
Girl you got to find you the man who
can smoke this out, Good Medicine would say----

You got you a Fast horse darlin'
But all you do is complain it ain't
a maserati.
You had a soul that you left back in Memphis
but your mama ain't New York she is pure
can't you see your mama ain't New York
she is pure Tennessee
Tennessee



OPHELIA
Ophelia your secret is safe
Ophelia you must break the chain
some girls will get their way
some fathers will control from the grave
Ophelia you must remember

Veronica's America is not like--
is not like Charlotte's, one to savor
cosmic flavor
then Alison whispers,  "remember
Change waltzes in with her sister Pain
waiting for you to send her away
wish her well break the chain
break the chain"
I feel you

Ophelia
"The Eve of St. Agnes",
a poem he can't reach you in
Ophelia you know how to lose
but when will you learn to choose
those men who choose to stay
those mothers who won't look the other way
Ophelia you must remember

Veronica's America is not like---
is not like Charlotte's, one to savor
cosmic flavor
then Alison whispers," remember
Change waltzes in with her sister Pain
waiting for you to send her away
wish her well break the chain

Tori Amos Announces Midwinter Graces

After nearly two decades writing and recording some of her generation's most emotionally powerful music, Tori Amos will release her first seasonal album, Midwinter Graces, on November 10 via Universal Republic. A follow up to Tori's critically acclaimed studio album, Abnormally Attracted to Sin, Midwinter Graces will find Tori reworking and expanding on classic carols as well as developing some of her very own seasonal tracks.

Midwinter Graces is an album that has been in the making for the past 40 years. Raised in the Baltimore area under the watchful eye of her Methodist minister father, Tori grew up playing holiday carols at Sunday services and Christmas Day celebrations in her father's church. These were the songs that gave a young Tori her first taste of music, and now almost 40 years later Tori gets her own chance to reimagine the classics.

Midwinter Graces Tracklist:
What Child, Nowell
Star of Wonder
A Silent Night with You
Candle: Coventry Carol
Holly, Ivy, and Rose
Harps of Gold
Snow Angel
Jeanette, Isabella
Pink and Glitter
Emmanuel
Winter's Carol
Our New Year

New CD, ABNORMALLY ATTRACTED TO SIN, Due Spring 2009

(New York, NY) There will be thousands of artists and tens of thousands of music fans gathering at over 60 venues for this year’s South By Southwest Music Conference in Austin, TX, but all eyes will be on groundbreaking star Tori Amos, headlining one of the most anticipated events in the conference’s two decade-plus history, on Thursday, March 19, at historic Austin club, La Zona Rosa. 

The Grammy nominated singer/songwriter is headlining a star-studded Universal Republic showcase at the popular venue, sure to be looked on as one of the must-see events of the 4 day festival.  Tori will be performing new songs from her upcoming Universal Republic debut album, ABNORMALLY ATTRACTED TO SIN, scheduled to hit stores and the digital domain this spring, as well as other classics from her influential repertoire. 

Tori’s recent signing with Universal Republic is in keeping with the inventive star’s unconventional approach to the artist/record company relationship.  Universal Republic will distribute Tori’s new album, as well as correlate other ventures in tandem with Tori’s prolific creative output.
