Née Myra Allen, fille d’un pasteur méthodiste, elle commence le piano à 4 ans et chante dans la chorale de l’église. Ado elle se produit dans des clubs gays en compagnie de son père. Puis elle s’installe à Los Angeles, et fonde le groupe Y Kant Tori Read (un truc assez épouvantable musicalement et visuellement, ah les 80’s). Elle reprend vite ses esprits et se lance en solo. En 92, bingo, son single « Crucify » issu du 1er album, devient un méga-tube.
Dès lors, nous sommes beaucoup à n’avoir cessé de l’aimer.
Victime d’un viol plus jeune, elle est très engagée sur ces questions et a créé l’association RAINN (hotline 24h/24h pour soutenir les victimes). Elle en a aussi fait une terrible chanson (« me and the gun »).
Tori comme Fiona Apple, c'est un bon souvenir de pré-puberté pour moi. J'ai beaucoup écouté Little Earthquakes qui est au demeurant est un bon album, bien écrit... These Precious Things, Winter, Me and a gu, mes préférées dégagent beaucoup d'émotions...
So I ran faster But it caught me here Yes my loyalties turned Like my ankle In the seventh grade Running after Billy Running after the rain These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things let them break Their hold over me
He said you're really an ugly girl But I like the way you play And I died But I thanked him Can you believe that Sick holding on to his picture Dressing up every day I wanna smash the faces of those beautiful boys Those christian boys So you can made me cum That doesn't make you Jesus I remember Yes in my peach party dress No one dared No one cared To tell me where the pretty girls are Those demigods With their nine-inch nails(notez l'hommage --> il me semble que trent et elle sont sortis ensemble) And little fascist panties Tucked inside the heart Of ever nice girl These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break Let them wash away
Caught a lite sneeze caught a lite breeze Caught a lightweight lightingseed Boys on my left side Boys on my right side Boys in th emiddle And you're not here I need a big oan From the girl zone
Building tumbling down Didn't know our love was so small Coun't stand at all Mr. St. John just bring you son
The spire is hot And my cells can't feed And you still got that Belle dragging your foots I'm hiding it well Sister Ernestine But I still got that Belle Dragging my foots
Right on time you get closer And closer Called my name but there's no way in Use that fame Rent you wife and kids today Maybe she will Maybe she will caught a lite sneeze Dreamed a little dream Made my own pretty hate machine Boys on my left side Boys on my right side Boys in the middle and you're not here Boys in their dresses And you're not here I need a big loan from the girl zone
La rumeur voudrait qu'ils soient sortis ensemble ouais, officiellement ils étaient juste potes.
Bah elle dit "one of my dearest friend, i call him up when i'm feelin terrible blabla"
edit = pas blabla --> "and he sings me lullabies" (la chanceuse '-') Nan mais quand elle dit ça, elle parle de Maynard, le chanteur de TOOL et d'APC. Or là nous parlions de Trent Reznor, chanteur de Nine Inch Nails.

Snow can wait I forgot my mittens Wipe my nose Get my new boots on I get a little warm in my heart When I think of winter I put my hand in my father's glove I run off Where the drifts get deeper Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown I hear a voice "Your must learn to stand up for yourself Cause I can't always be around" He says When you gonna make up your mind When you gonna love you as much as I do When you gonna make up your mind Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses are still in bed I tell you that I'll always want you near You say that things change my dear
Boys get discovered as winter melts Flowers competing for the sun Years go by and I'm here still waiting Withering where some snowman was Mirror mirror where's the crystal palace But I only can see the myself Skating around the truth who I am But I know dad the ice is getting thin
When you gonna make up your mind When you gonna love you as much as I do When you gonna make up your mind Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses are still in bed I tell you that I'll always want you near You say that things change my dear
Hair is grey And the fires are burning So many dreams On the shelf You say I wanted you to be proud of me I always wanted that myself
He says When you gonna make up your mind When you gonna love you as much as I do When you gonna make up your mind Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses have gone ahead I tell you that I'll always want you near You say that things change My dear
