I wonder why?

She's all about showing instead of telling....

You sure she hasn't?

i don't know. but i do know she's playing paris on june 2nd.

The most "love song-ish" song she has is Nothern Lad from Choirgirl

GangstaFam said:

I'be listened to all her albums (and almost all of the Bee-sides) had I don't remember ever listening to a verse that contains "I love you"...

sallysassalot said:

That means that the new album will be released soon!

sallysassalot said:

It's on!

The closest I can think of is her cover of "Angie".

GangstaFam said:

yes...only in covers she sings Love in it's more icky...sticky nature.

The question is:

Is love an unspoken truth for Tori or she's frigid towards it because of the abuse she had from men?

MikeMatronik said:

I don't think she's frigid. She just doesn't write anything that's cliche or overly obvious.

GangstaFam said:

Isn't it a denial of a woman's nature to be romantic?

MikeMatronik said:

I think Tori can be incredibly romantic and loving.

GangstaFam said:

Can we say that she only has sexual desire for her Bosendorf?

MikeMatronik said:

I feel like I'm the Magic Tori 8 Ball!

No, she likes a good Raspberry Swirl now and again.

GangstaFam said:

Has she ever "...seen Barbados"?

does "i wanna feel it next to my mouth...its gotta be big" count?

Issues

Her cover of "Lovesong" comes close too.

And her cover of "Thank You".

sosgemini said:

i believe the phrase you're looking for is "honey bring it close to my lips"

sallysassalot said:

That 'Star Trunk Funkin' remix is one of the most awkward and hilarious pieces of music I've ever heard.

Because all she really cares about is putting the damage on. Love is for wusses.

GangstaFam said:

when i was 21 that was IT in the clubs! i remember the first time i heard it on the dance floor i didn't recognize it as tori until the breakdown part..."rest your shoulders, peaches and cream..." you know i lost my shit right then and there!

sallysassalot said:

It's the most funnest dance song about convincing someone to kill themselves ever!

Moonbeam said:

That certainly is a contender for greatest break up songs.

she sings about love all the time, she just does it a lot better
than most people and doesn't resort to blunt lyrics but creates
these little panoptical stories out of which the emotion of each
song just shimmers like a soft light.

even her supposed break up songs, or her angry songs contain an
element of unrelenting, unconditional love imo.

it's just that her love is real, warts and all. she takes hurt,
disappoinement, rejection, abuse and manipulation right along
with the more happy emotions of love and mixes them up, just as
they are in real life.

perhaps that's why it's a bit less obvious, but it certainly is
a lot more real.

She never wrote a verse with "When you judge a book by the cover, you judge the look by the lover" either.
