"Gold Dust is about celebrating over 20 years of all the conversations that have happened which inspired many of these songs and it's a collection of new recordings of where they are now and who they have become."
"Well, some songs I think work better in a live context than others. They just do... Matty looked at me, the drummer this is, and he said, "I miss the people. I miss the people clapping to the rhythm."
"From in the shadow she calls. And in the shadow she finds a way, finds a way. And in the shadow she crawls, clutching her faded photograph. My image under her thumb. Yes with a message for my heart."
"When you stop putting yourself on the line, and you don't touch your own heart, how do you expect to touch other people?"
The Tori Store is where you can find the latest Tori Amos merchandise! You'll find an array of t-shirts, CDs, live performance DVDs, jewlery, key chains, concert programs and much more!
Today I learned of the very sad news that Peter Rauhofer has passed away suddenly.
I will always hold a very special place in my heart for Peter and his remixes of "Flavor".
He truly captured the spirit of the song and helped create a #1 Dance Club Record
I am sending send my love and thoughts to his family and friends at this very sad time.

A NEWLY ARRANGED &
RECORDED COLLECTION
CELEBRATING 20 YEARS AND SPANNING
THE ENTIRE TORI SONGBOOK
FEATURING THE METROPOLE ORCHESTRA
TO BE RELEASED OCTOBER 2012
Tori has re-imagined a personally hand-picked collection of songs spanning her entire catalogue with the thirteenth studio album, Gold Dust. Produced by Tori with arrangements by long-time collaborator John Philip Shenale, the new album features re-workings of songs in orchestral settings, which Tori recorded in the studio with the renowned Metropole Orchestra, conducted by Jules Buckley.
"My relationship with all of these songs has changed over the years and they have changed my life. So it wasn't just about capturing the past it was about realizing that the songs had a new narrative now - 10 or 20 years later than they did when I originally recorded them," Tori comments.
Tori will also be doing a very limited number of amazing orchestral shows.
Oct 1 -- Rotterdam
Oct 2 -- Brussels
Oct 3 -- London

On a cold December night in New York City, Tori Amos played a private solo concert for one hundred fans at the historic Park Avenue Armory, an immense historical landmark built in the late 19th century as both a military facility and a social club. Described as "Greek, Moresque, and Celtic with a dash of the Egyptian, the Persian, and the Japanese," the Armory's ornate Veterans Room provided a fitting setting for Tori's intimate performance.
Tori Amos: Live from the Artists Den captures this once-in-a-lifetime performance featuring both hits and fan favorites spanning Tori's catalogue, from her 1991 debut Little Earthquakes to her 2009 album Abnormally Attracted to Sin - including two songs not shown in the television broadcast.
Tori Amos is a founding member of and has been one of the main spokeswoman for The Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), the nation's largest anti-sexual assault organization. RAINN created and operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1.800.656.HOPE. RAINN also publicizes the hotline's free, confidential services, educates the public about sexual assault, and leads national efforts to improve services to victims and ensure that rapists are brought to justice.
