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.

Christmas In Space Lyrics
Tori Amos
well hey do you do judo when they surround you
a little mental yoga will they disappear
it's grim but never dubious as motives go
one thing she'll always promise promise is a show
thunder wishes it could be the snow
wishes it could be as loved as she can be
these gifts are here for her, for you, for me
I watch me be this other thing and never know
if I'm marooned or where the purple people go
the lily white matricide from vicious words
it doesn't leave a scratch so therefore no one's hurt
thunder wishes it could be the snow
wishes it could be as loved as she can be
these gifts are here for her, for you, for me
and don't you know the nurses make it clear
and just when you've escaped, you have yourself to fear
a restaurant that never has to close
breakfast every hour it could save the world
so hey do you do judo in your finery
an angel's face is tricky to wear constantly
thunder wishes it could be the snow
wishes it could be as loved as she can be
these gifts are here for her, for you, for me
for her, for her
