"a bizarre sensation pervades a relationship of pretense. no truth seems true. a simple morning's greeting and response appear loaded with innuendo and fraught with implications. each nicety becomes more sterile and each withdrawal more permanent."--maya angelou ( Read more... )

( this is a breakdown of all the moments I liked from Tori Amos' new album Abnormally Attracted to Sin. You can read it if you want, but I'm posting it here (and then linking) because it was about 6000 characters too long for the forum I made it for (you probably already know that I frequent and have even moderated Tori Amos forums, yes, so I'm not even going to pretend to be embarrassed about it) so... don't expect it to be short, or relevant to your interests. (Unless it is.) Also it makes me look like a boring, out of context person. (Though pretty musically savvy. In truth, I am both of those things.) Additional fun fact: this LJ cut pwnt the longest album title ever in word count by a good many words. (When the Pawn...) P.S. I reiterate (since I've texted many of you about it in a manner recalling my earlier, really annoying moments of TA obsession) this is her best work in 10 years and you should listen to it. )
