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.

Another Girl's Paradise Lyrics
Tori Amos
you caught me lingering
in another girl's paradise
the way she paints the world --
i want that in my life emeralds,
you should know,
are renting in her meadow
with a stroke beauty lives
how could i resist you are desire
when it all is said said and done
who can love you and still be standing
there's mary calling up a storm
can i take from you and not keep taking
naked as day Gemma follows him
does it all come down
to the thing one girl fears in the night
is another girl's paradise
through twists and turns
Jasmine foxed me in her grove
arms filled with honey-bells,
st michaels sanford bloods
"you have come to discover what you want"
what i want is not to want what isn't mine
"but i am desire" when it all is said and done.
is another girl
is another girl
is another girl's paradise
