I saw her in '96 and when she played this song I wept the whole time. I was in the 6th row and she looked over and gave me a little nod. It was a moment and a performance I will treasure for the rest of my life

That's awesome. She is amazing live. She's a phenom, esp. live. I'm glad you got that nod. I've seen her many times live, once with a broken leg. lol

I saw her in sioux city in 2002. She saved my life. I literally wanted to die from the time I was 10. Tori gave me the strength to tell the world to get fucked.

I saw her in 2002. I cried through almost the whole concert. Almost everyone did.... It was transcendent..

Me walking around in 1994 listening to this like, finally someone who understands.
I haven't heard this for years and now I'm in tears. 💞
I loved this song a a teen now i’m 36 and decided to listen to Tori. I’m nearly bawling now that I experienced life . 😢
Spring of 8th grade - got the cassette tape home after listening to the first side in the car with my parents on the way home from the mall. It was the first and the only song I cried to during the very first listen. I knew this was going to be a special song for me for the rest of my life. I'm an only child and I could only imagine how much like mourning it would be when I became an adult and the day of leaving would arrive. It came. Then time whipped forward, my mother got sick with Parkinson's and is still here but in many ways long gone. The breadcrumbs are lost indeed, my whole past life in another state is long over and gone, now I am in this new life. I still have my parents but I rue the day when I must say goodbye.
This song makes me think about young women forced into marriages without consent. Happens every day around the world. "Mother" brings that reality into brutal relief. "Go go now out of the nest" "it's time" "be a good soldier." The fear. "Maybe he'll leave a light on..." The loss of identity. When you're a girl in many countries, including China where I currently live, marriage means leaving your family and joining your husband's.. "He's gonna change my name," "I can remember where I come from," "breadcrumbs lost under the snow." Girls leaving their mothers and sisters, not being able to find their way home, all over the world. Right now. It's so brave for Tori to take on a topic like that in such a raw way, and also it's dumb something so obviously important seems "brave." I'm producing an all-female version of Romeo & Juliet, and this song just feels so Juliet. Forced into marriage with Paris and forbidden to choose her husband for herself. Crushing.
Memories of listening to this with my mom 10 years ago. She loves this album and got me into it. I would listen to this on my iPod Nano all the time and this and Winter and Little Earthquakes was one of my favorites. Years will go by, but I will still come back to this album and this song.
One of my favourite songs . Here for it may 2022 ❤️
i walked into your dream and now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream

I'm a writer and many of my characters are female. Tori helps put me ever closer to that side of me so that I can find their strength and weaknesses alike. She's an amazing emotionalist acrobat!

Sarah Pedro I saw her in 1991 at The Barbican in York, a small intimate theatre and I was in the front row almost close enough to touch her. My mum had died in 1987 and it reminded me of all the wonderful memories I had of her. I started to fall apart and the tears began to fall and she suddenly stared at me and after a few moments realised I was crying. She smiled and nodded at me, it still remains the most special moment of my life. She released a live CD of that performance and I've treasured it ever since.
this is such a relatable song. i can perfectly infer my abusive relationship with my narcissistic psychopathic ex into it. i was still living at my parent's place, severele depressed and pretty much on self-destruct mode - years later i realized that much of it had to do with my mothers absence in terms of guidance she tragically couldn't possibly give because she is so starkly different from me. during that time i basically ran home from my boyfriends and back to my boyfriend from home. my parents didn't realize what he was and how he treated me until i realized it myself and told it to them, mostly because i was so good at lying to myself and thus to them during the time. The most happiness i felt during that time was the anticipation of getting to escape one place and romanticizing the other. the song focuses much onto the moments in between - the arrival of the car, as well as the request for someone to leave the light on at home. The asshat basically reprogrammed my brain all charismatic narcissistic cult leader style, until i lost myself, any emotion, motivation or energy. these lyrics just fit so perfectly.

In 2005 I listened to this in my headgear while snorkeling Forsythe Creek in Norcal, counting tiny salmon and steelhead. Surreal.

She did? That's so cool. How did that happen? She seems like a very nice lady. Love her on "Once.."
Great song, and thanks very much for the lyrics! So poignant and heartbreaking. The line: "...and I cross my legs oh my God", I've always heard it as, "Across the sky, and across my heart, and I cross my legs o're my c*nt." Any idea which one is more accurate? (I encourage y'all to use the full version of c*nt in respectful ways, just don't want to get flagged!)
I wish my daughter had grown up enough to understand how to play Tori Amos on piano ❤
Love
