Morning spent putting up the Christmas tree with a soundtrack of Bjork and Tori Amos live performances. They always bring the magic ✨

Very satisfying to see a retrospective 9.2 rating of the perennially underrated and underappreciated Tori Amos from the famously opinionated and hard-to-please Pitchfork crew.

The album left most critics scratching their heads upon its release in Jan'96, so it's nice to see history being righted

27 years since Tori Amos unleashed one of my favourite albums ever - From the Choirgirl Hotel - onto the world. An unimpeachable masterpiece that still sounds as fresh today as it did back in 1998. Tori Amos at the height of her creative alt-pop powers. #90s #toriamos

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..."

Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up.

I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

I wrote this song 13 years ago about a horrific homophobic attack in America I'd read about. The lyrics have now taken on an even more ominous tone since Trump took office, as he once again legitimises hate towards minority groups.

Ah, those long-haired furlough days during COVID 😌

Remember how we all thought it might just bring about a positive change in the world? Should have known better.
