new tori interview and she is on! here's a snippet:
journalist: "I have a friend, a young student, who is a huge Tori fan. She bought "A Piano" because it wasn't on iTunes when it first came out, but she told me that if she could have waited and downloaded the "Bonus B-Sides" disc, and saved the money, that's what she would have done." Tori: "Well, I can't be held hostage as an artist to the fact that she doesn't have the cash. Maybe 10 years from now she'll have more money than any of us, who knows? I'm a motherf***er, and the reason she likes me is that you can't guilt me into saying what she wants to hear to make her day. I am going to stand by what I want for the songs, period. I wasn't going to let this box set become "Boxing Helena" in the first six weeks. I knew that I would deliver what she needs, but no way was I going to let the sonic perverts cut up this music. I don't make singles, I make albums. I don't shoot just one crotch shot -- that's not what I do. I'll give you the crotch shot -- but at least put me in a pair of Louboutin high heels." i love this woman! here's the whole article: http://music.msn.com/music/remasters | |

I now realise why the latest Tori sounds so bland to me; she admits it;
we could never have recreated the sound of the church where we first recorded, so I just said no. And that was just inexperience. Now I wouldn't think twice about going back in and redoing everything. How Prince can she get? Yeah, I got this amazing song called Old Friend 4 Sale, but let's re-record it with lame lyrics and bleed it to death! Woohoo! | |

She seems to be saying that back then she made compromises based on time, money and pressure from execs. | |

What she means is she re-records her songs to make it sounds like something else; like Old Friends 4 Sale, second version. I just hope she gets it all right the first time 'round. I can't wait for the new album. | |

I can't wait for the new album. no, huey, what she was saying was if she has songs for a record that have an imperfection, whereas in the past she would have simpy said "oh, there's nothing i can do about that now," today she says, "fuck it, i'm going to make it perfect even if "perfect" isn't what i thought it was when i recorded it." she's not talking about taking old songs that weren't recorded then and modernizing them now. she's talking about taking songs she's working on in the present and not letting time or place settings dictate their being perfected. | |
