Hehe... check out

www.pollyscattergood.com

I saw this girl supporting the excellent Joan as Policewoman (www.joanaspolicewoman.com) in London tonight. My God, Ms Scattergood didn't half do a Tori impersonation - all the mannerisms (both vocal and physical), wriggling on her stall etc! I Would be interested to see what the Tori fanatics here think of her??!

pfff, every woman who plays the piano is called a Tori Amos
for example Amanda Palmer (dresden dolls), I read in a magazine "The new Tori Amos" WTF? Amanda Palmer is definitly not a Tori Amos, for me it's a complete different style. I still don't get it, the piano is just an instrument as a guitar, and why isn't every guitarplayer the new bob dylan?

I can't see the videos on her site because of my slow computer, but I had to shut it down anyway because I couldn't stand her whiny voice on that first song

Ditto!!!!!!!!

Just to say that I wasn't exactly recommending her ( I actually walked out for a beer outside during her performance) but I was struck by the desperate Tori impression and thought it might be noteworthy...

I'm a Tori fan but not a Tori fan in the enormous ways that others here are so just wanted to get the full perspective. Never mind

Well, I don't really agree with you Fran, 'cos not every woman who plays the piano is called a Tori Amos. LOL!!! And not every guitarplayer is called the new Bob Dylan. A lot of people do NOT know who Tori is btw. lol. There are quite a few 'artists' out there who have the exact mannerisms as Tori has noone can deny that, they even take over a lot of her lyrics. That's ok for me, if they make it their own and do their thing, but unfortunately there are a couple of artists out there who can't seem to do that. I think it's pathetic. [I'm NOT talking about Amanda Palmer here, 'cos she has her own sound by far.]

Ey, Stevo... you moffo... I've been wanting to check her out, but the website is down. But I guess I don't miss out on a lot! ;D

I'll check her myspace out when it's up again and when I'm at my computer in my dormroom. Now I've only heard a little bit of a song so I couldn't really form a real opinion on it yet

[bluebelle]

Tullulah lol. Her voice is shit. Well okay I guess it was okay in parts

[Sindënís*~]

I checked her out and she seems to be REALLY into the 'intense Tori' thing. And it's utterly ridiculous.
Oh and her voice makes me want to jam a fork into my eye.

Dire!

I just wanted my mommy Tori after hearing that chick sing.

Not only is she a campy, whiney what was that you said, Sindenis? OH yeah... "fork in your eye" singer, but she recycled SO MANY Tori lyrics, Tori concepts... even Tori Quotes!!

UGH.
