I never thought her approach to her art made her a kook, I never feel she's disingenuous when she speaks about the muses, she's sane and humble so I refuse to listen to people who think she's crazy. And she's never claimed to be finished as an artist. Her music wouldn't have changed so dramatically over the years. She's taught me not to ever ignore my muses or think I'm ever "finished" as a writer.

Yes I think she's much more relaxed than expected Positive and calm atmosphere in this interviews but honmest was my first impression off this .a little like I didn't expect her to be like that..not because I didn't like her here ..well ....

My life wouldn't be the same without growing up listening to tori Amos!! Her music raised me and taught me how to be a strong woman!!

Mallory McAvoy SAME!!! I tell people all the time that Tori raised me. I've been listening to her since I was 11...she has been there for me throughout all of my teen years, my hardships, my relationships, the birth of my children.... Each album marks a milestone in my life. My oldest son is now a senior in high school and watching him and his sisters grow into their own individual selves brings me back to the beginning of my relationship with Tori... I feel like this album will bring everything full circle.

@@johnconstantinemarinakiski8128 thanks for this. Always wondered what her chart looked like. Never bothered checking it out though, but now i know. That configuration is very much how she comes across. That's why.

I learn a lot with her songs, but I learn even more when she speaks ❤

Tori never disappoints in an interview. Mad props to the interviewer, too.

So delightfull listening to her journey as a human being and as an artist at this point of her life. Her reflections about nature, the power of words, being on the spotlight, success... She´s deep but not pretencious, what a great artist, so unique!

Tori has always been an inspiration - I've only seen her live once in Oakland in the early 90's and it was the most amazing show, her talent is mind altering. She is beautiful on every single level.

Tickles me pink that they were visiting the Smoky Mtn. national park when she began this album, the song writing process. I’ve lived on and at the foot of those mountains my entire life.

Literally changes my life slightly every time I listen to her speak. Tori wins the award for Every Single Comment on a KZread video being positive btw.

I love how she is in interviews.

I can listen to her telling stories for the whole day. What a great interview. Thanks for posting.

My goodness, when you realize the beauty surrounding all of us, it shows. And it couldn't have chosen a better ambassador; when inner beauty shows through so easily its genuine. I've never seen so many beautiful women than Tori Amos.

LOVE TORI!! Phenomenal interview.

Beautiful legend 💜

Artist with a capital "A."

Wonderful interview. It's nice to see a journalist ask thoughtful questions from a fan's perspective. Can't wait to hear the new album. As many have said before, Tori's music has had such a huge impact on me and I will forever be a fan.

My heart is broken for her mother. They are so close it seems. And I hope she gets better.

So much in love when listening to this interview, can't wait for a new album. Thank you Tori!

Great interview! I love her comments about words and communication.

Tori is truly an amazing soul, can't wait for Native Invader! Looks like it will be one of her best albums since Scarlet's Walk

Wow elements of Choirgirl?! I can't wait to hear it!!

Oustanding interviewer and Tori was warm, wise and enchanting as always.

Great to hear the direction of the new album, thankyou.

Thank you so much for this!!!❤️❤️❤️

Also, she looks gorgeous!

thank you tori Amos. this is more like artist therapy for me. one that i received actual answers to my questions.....and from a line in her song WINTER i need to love my self as much as my mom did when she was alive. i believe that would be her wish ,i realize now she was verry proud of me .now its time for me to be proud of me.

I don’t quite know what it is, but Tori seems so nurturing and motherly. Her voice, her words, her posture. When I hear her speak in interviews, it’s like I want to hug her.

yes tori! Speak it! Can't wait to see ya on tour

How about y'all mind your business? Do any of you live with TMJ and have you lived with it for nearly four decades? She HAD to have procedures done to her mouth and face to ease the pain. Otherwise she could have had major sinus problems. I mean, she used to have spine problems that required her sleeping with a back brace cuz of TMJ! And who knows? Maybe she got additonal procedures after. It doesn't matter. There isn't anything wrong with having cosmetic procedures done and it's none of your fucking business what she does with her body. Don't you bring your misogny/internalized misogyny around here.

This topic has been talked about to death, but for the record I don't think Tori ever actually had plastic surgery. I think she just flirted with botox and stuff like that for a while. Her facial structure never really changed, and a big part of it was that she purposely wore very unusual makeup for a lot of touring in the late 2000's

Still beautiful..., inside and out.

I love her so fucking much

Nature is crying out that we need to take care of our planet better!!!

I love u Tori

Y Kant Tori Read has some great songs like Cool On Your Island. Native Invader's Reindeer King, Climb and Bang are masterpieces.

Interviewing Tori would be a nightmare! lol-I love her.

"... so we have to hope that that 'progression' (progressive vision) does get into the upper echelons of 'power' in the music industry..." ... In addition to the upper echelons of 'power' in the political, economic and social industries as well. At least that's what I derived from this magical, muse-mining interview myself... Thanks! :-)

She looks like she’s in a disguise. I feel like the giant glasses, wigs and hats really put a barrier between her and the audience, in stark contrast to her earlier years where she made intense eye contact while connecting with her audience.

Some serious accidental ASMR here

Really didn't expect her to talk about Zappa. Rad.

I'm sorry, but that hat is so radical. I'm not jealous of you, I'm so happy for you. I wore a seagull hat on my wedding day.

While watching this interview, I thought of a great question which might throw Tori for a loop: Where do you think you would be today if Y Kant Tori Read was a huge success? I'm guessing she might say something like "in a mental institution."

Love weaponry warrants Peace in response

I would love to hear what she thinks about the alt-left in the US (Marxist feminists). I love that she never hated on men or played the victim. Women who don't use their wounds to lord over others are powerful beyond measure.

Argh, no audio!

She mentioned traveling to the Smokies with Jay. Who is Jay? Has anyone listened to the new album? Is it accessible like the first 7 or so albums? I haven’t kept up with Tori in awhile.

If I had a chance to sit with Tori and talk I would faint and she wouldn't be impressed. Not that I have any reason to be impressing.

"it's an emotional record" all of your lyrics are very emotional so much so it's cheesy, not necessarily in a bad way. Sometimes i wish i got them but i mostly just enjoy the music. so how "emotional" can this one b?

Ooh, nylons, i do like nylon i have to say.

Terrible interviewer, she just has no clue who Tori is and what she leans towards believing. I kept cringing.
