Delivered with every bit as much passion as the original.

I recommend all non-Tori fans to listen to her version.

It's alright.

i saw her perform it live in ann arbor, michigan 1994. is there a recording available?

Wow, I'm so impressed! I do love Tori, but hadn't the vaguest idea that she appreciated Prince..

I met her at a show for the Choirgirl Hotel Tour in SF (98 I think) , I asked her to play "purple rain". I told her I was a huge prince fan. She said she was too, and then she blew me away when she said "your a huge prince fan? wouldn't you rather hear Condition of The Heart? We do that but we don't think any of the kids will know it..." Man, I love her...so much more when she said-fucking perfect. Her music isn't what it used to be, but she really was a exciting artist for a 5 album stretch there.

oh my girl is still what she used to be! scarlet's walk was as good, if not better, than any of her earlier works.



and this bitch works my pussy!

yup she is amazing, i met her the same day that I bought 'come' years ago.. wanted to give her the cassette to listen to just b/c it was the last thing I bought for myself but passed on the idea, thought it was cheesy (the album came out that day).. and anyway, now i wish I woulda... ps sassy, is that guy doing what I think he is doin in your pic??

trent said:

yeah, probably...depends on what you're thinkin'.

I much prefer Tori's version to P's.

trent said:

Yeah, Choirgirl came out that day-I remember that. Man, I waited out there for over a day-fucking slept out there. I was first in-line.

I did like Scarletts Walk...but its not as dangerous as her earlier records.

Trent where were u in line?

given that the record has an incredibly harsh (and accurate) telling of american history, keeping in mind that the record came out after 9-11, it is a very dangerous album. certainly her most political/social commentary to date. and while managing to remain anonymous in regards to socio-political history, she still manages to get quite itrospective and personal on quite a few tracks. i thought the record was her ballsiest because, at that time, anyone who had anything negative to say about america was pretty much blacklisted and boycotted. she kept it real.

oh, and 'gold dust'.

actually..wasnt in line anywhere.. she was playinga concert in oklahoma city, and I was there for it.. was driving down the road, and happen to see her walking from a patio at a restaurant to the inside, and naturally I pulled over to say hi .. ok..so i wouldnt do such foolish things now, but I was like 16 or something

and i loved scarlets walk,.. was great after strange little girls and to venus and back, which i thought were both pretty forgettable.. speaking of other music.. who is getting the Cure b sides box set today?! me me me!

Wow, so she actually knew Prince's music somewhat well then...I'm VERY impressed, she seems like such a 'serious' artist, but you know that anyone that likes Prince has a fun streak!
