Born Myra Ellen Amos, the daughter of Reverend Edison Amos and Mary Ellen Amos, on August 22, 1963, in North Carolina. She was a piano prodigy from the beginning, playing by ear at age 2 1/2, and writing her own songs by age 4. It's been said that by age 5, she could play anything on the piano after hearing it only once. She won a scholarship at the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore, Maryland - the youngest person ever to be admitted there. She always ran into trouble there, as they discouraged her from composing her own music.

1000 Oceans Lyrics
Tori Amos
These tears Ive cried
Ive cried 1000 oceans
And if it seems Im floating
In the darkness
Well I cant believe that I would kep
Keep you from flying
And I would cry 1000 more if thats
What it takes to sail you home
Sail you home sail you home
Im aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you
Over silbury hill through the solar field
You know that I wil follow you
And if I find you will you still remember
Playing at trains
Or does this little blue ball
Just fade away
Over silbury hill through the solar field
You know that I will follow you
Im aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you
These tears Ive cried
Ive cried 1000 oceans
And if Im floating
In the darkness
Well I cant believe that I would kep
Keep you from flying
And I will cry 1000 more if thats
What it takes to sail you home
Sail you home sail you home
