Tori Amos

Hey,

Has anyone else heard Tori Amos' live version of Purple Rain? I recently got it on MP3 and I think it's beautiful.
Just her on piano. It's definitely the most moving version of Purple Rain I've ever heard - it's quite a tear-jerker the way she sings it.

Gives me chills just thinking about it.

Anyone?

NO I HAVE NOT HEARD IT YET.

BUT I CAN IMAGINE IT BEING WONDERFUL. TORI IS A SPECIAL TALENT AND AN AWESOME LIVE PERFORMER. SAW HER AT THE LIVERPOOL PHIL A FEW YEARS BACK.

too predictable IMO, I don't like her version of "enjoy the silence" either, her best covers are the ones from Nirvana & The Stranglers ("strange little girls")

You can also hear something very similar to "Purple Rain" in her song "Hey Jupiter."

I'm a huge Tori fan, but I'm not usually a big fan of her covers. Her last album was probably her weakest.
