I can't freakin wait to hear it   It's the B-side from Spark. Her version is so good, not to take anything away from Steely Dan, but it's just more emotionally powerful and a little bit darker than the original version. If you like Liquid Diamonds/She's Your Cocaine, then you'll probably like Do It Again. It has that same feel.     Don't Kiss The Beast.....Be Superior at least.

I always think of it as the twin to "Liquid Diamonds" too. | |

Classic song.I'm sure Tori's is completely unrecognizable compared to the original. But I didn't even know who it was by. Ignorance is bliss! | |

That's like when I heard Slayer's "Raining Blood" after hearing Tori's remake first. I was scratching my head trying to hear any connection between the two at all. There isn't any. I remain unconvinced that there is any similarity beyond the titles. grammar edit [Edited 4/1/05 11:46am] | |

If that's the case, you know she should just write new lyrics for them, to save her the royalties troubles. looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |

RipHer2Shreds said: Hmmm...you said any kind, any genre. It's not new by any means, but one of my favorites:
Dark, dark material, and I love Johnette's voice. The tune Joey was played out, but the rest of the album is killer. Lots of anti-love songs, many of them equating love to a blood-thirsty monster.  
I can't even begin to tell you how much this album threw my ass for a loop! First of all, I thought this was Four Non Blondes! You know.... "25 years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope, for a destination. And I say Hey ey ey yeah Hey ey yey, I say hey, what's going on.... Brilliant! 
On top of thinking this was another band, I expected a very sappy kinda meloncholy sad slow type of music and this album is not full of slow sappy sad songs. I felt an immediate kinship with this album. I have another outlet for when love turns the sky into a poisonous garden. :brooding: Lestening to this album I felt like a vampire introduced into the world of satisfaction through bloodletting. I've certainly had my share of relationship tragedy and I connect with this kind of music, it's why I love PJ Harvey so much. She brings her grief to a whole different level and that is what this album did. It brought the pain and tragedy to the surface and made it alright to live it..... Thanks Ripher! Excellent suggestion  2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

Excellent suggestion  Yay! Glad you enjoyed it so much. I can still almost get the same feeling I first got when I listened to this album my senior year in high school (1991). When I said it was dark, I wasn't kidding. 
The prey of the beast screamed bloody murder The line is so fine between hoping and hurting Former believers they beg for release As love looking down on them smiles and picks his teeth Trapped in between heaven and hell he knows all the secrets and don't want to tell There's nowhere to run and there's nowhere to hide Love knows you all too well He will find you Love is the ghost haunting your head Love is the killer you thought was your friend Love is the creature who lives in the dark Sneaks up, will stick you and painfully pick you apart Love is a poet, love sings the songs Pointing his finger you follow along Voice are calling, the monster wants out of you paws you and claws you, you try not to fall Love is the leech, sucking you up Love is a vampire, drunk on your blood Love is the beast that will tear out your heart Hungrily lick it and painfully pick it apart Love is a ghost, haunting your head Love is the killer you thought was your friend Love is the teacher who lives in the dark Sneak up and stick you and painfully pick you apart | |
