If anything, this performance of “Winter” is even better. Another perfect song. If this had been the only song Tori Amos had ever written, she’d still be one of the best songwriters of all time.

I can see the argument for the idea that people should not be allowed to be this good. How do you follow that, as another performer or even as yourself? I’ve only ever seen her from quite far away and never watched her perform that closely in tight zoom at reasonably-high res. It’s great seeing how expressive her face is in this song.

That bridge is so good. I am envious of someone who can write something so just dead fucking on.
