With a harpsichord underscore and the song’s almost industrial (yes, industrial) atmospherics, “Professional Widow” is an anomalous song even by Amos’ standards. The song still holds to the characteristically ethereal tone of her other work, but “Professional Widow” also bears a distinctive dirge-like musical pace in methodical contrast to a vocal ...
From an album that saw Amos come full circle and fully embrace the darkly fanciful lyrics and lush orchestrations that had, at her very beginnings, given the singer/songwriter all the ammunition she would need, “Job’s Coffin” is a distinctively moving new pathway for Amos, who employed the outstandingly impressive vocalizations of her daughter, Nat...
From her breakthrough solo debut Little Earthquakes, “Precious Things” perfectly captures Amos’ trademark characteristic of balancing contrasts both musically and lyrically. Beginning with an echoing treble-clef series of chords played with a kind of loose fragility, Amos quickly pairs the deliberate melodic hesitation with a commanding chord in th...
The third track on Amos’ solo debut fully displays the singer’s orchestral sense of songwriting, opening the song with a few seconds of a minor-key broken chord that suddenly shifts into one of her most memorable and profound melodies. The song’s lyrics are some of her most straightforward and, at least for this record, most hopeful. Following both...
A song whose lyrics center on the late Jackie Kennedy-Onassis might prove a groan-inducing exercise in topical posturing for most other artists, yet Amos does her subject justice on this track that, though six years removed from Amos’ debut, still carries the weight of that nameless narrator shifting through various stages and perceptions of her/hi...
A fairly straightforward pop song, “A Sorta Fairytale” still showcases the full breadth of Amos’ diversity as a songwriter. Though the majority of the 2000s saw Amos struggling to find the balance between the abstract notions of her more ethereal work and the hook-laden songs at which she’d proven herself more than adept at writing, “A Sorta Fairyt...
In stark contrast to the damning and ominous weight of “Crucify,” the opening track from her debut two years prior, Amos’ Under The Pinkbegins with the almost completely subdued “Pretty Good Year” — a song whose strength lies solely in the delivery of its singer, rather than in the combination of a good melody paired with good lyrics. Amos hangs on...
In a year where Ace Of Base dominated the Billboard charts alongside a Bryan Adams/Rod Stewart/Sting collaboration (read that again), and R. Kelly was offering the world a little bump ‘n’ grind, Amos released Under The Pink, and with that release, one of the year’s most unequivocally powerful songs. While the indie world mourned the tragic death of...
Just shy of six minutes, “Winter” is widely considered Amos’ masterpiece, and for good reason. Again from her near-perfect debut, the song immediately evokes a sense of longing from the lightly played chord sequence at the beginning, quickly but subtly joined by Amos’ lilting voice. Especially noteworthy is the song’s placement in Amos’ career, as ...
Amos has indicated that “Cornflake Girl” took direct inspiration from Alice Walker’s gut-wrenching Possessing The Secret Of Joy— a novel whose narrative revolves around the horrifically real practice of female genital mutilation. Never one to shy away from the topical, Amos succeeds again on what’s likely her most recognizable song by allowing the ...
