I love pissed off Tori (She's Your Cocaine, Fat Slut, Precious Things, Raspberry Swirl) most but jolly Tori (Happy Phantom) is pretty amazing too.
I thought the sameabout SW, until I sat down and really listened to it - its stunning. "The Beekeeper" and "To Venus.." are my least favourite albums, she just sounds totally uninterested - "Strange Little Girls" isn't that great either, but atleast it was somewhat interesting...

OH. MY. GOD. I love TVAB!! Mostly for the live CD but I like the album too. My top albums are:

1. From The Choirgirl Hotel
2. Under The Pink
3. To Venus And Back
4. Boys For Pele
5. Scarlets Walk
6. Little Earthquakes
7. The Beekeeper
8. Strange Little Girls

When I actually sit down and listen to it, ADP will probably come somewhere around Pele or Venus area.

Nice!

What I love about Tori is that most of her fans have an enitrely different idea about what her best album is - I have yet to talk to anybody that agrees with my view:

1. Scarlet's Walk
2. Under the Pink
3. From the Choir Girl Hotel
4. Little Eartquakes
5. Boys for Pele
6. Strange Little Girls
7. To Venus & Back
8. The Beekeeper

I can't believe you have TVAB that low...or SW that high. I also think LE needs to be lower. Everyone seems to totally love LE and I don't think it's as good as everyone makes out. The Beekeeper I don't own but have heard. I can live without it quite easily. Do you like Bjork?

Should I rearrange my list to suit you?

Yep, I love Bjork - from what I have heard so far, the new album should be cracker

I only have one Bjork album. Everyone raves about Debut but I don't like it. At all. I like "Post" and never bothered with any of her other stuff.

Quite nice, thanx for posting the link.

Actually, I think I like all her albums equally but I adore Pele and LE.

I also heard today that she will play in Athens , Greece, on 18th of July. It's not confirmed on her website but I do hope it's true!!

I'm bringing this up again because I just got the album and I 'm totally loving it!
I am mostly fond of her oldest and perhaps darker stuff, and I don't care so much for the 5 characters concept, nor am I so interested in political lyrics in general, so I didn't expect to like ADP so much but it really is a great comeback.

At the moment the songs I like the most are Code Red, Bouncing off Clouds (duh), Beauty of Speed, Almost Rosey, Mr Bad Man and Programmable Soda (ok, it's not Mr. Zebra, but still nice).
However, the song I instantly fell in love with is Dragon. Wow.
