Tori Amos's Strange Little Girls showcases the acclaimed pianist's remarkable ability to transform familiar songs into deeply personal statements. Released in 2001, this ambitious covers album features Amos taking on twelve well-known tracks from diverse artists including Eminem, Neil Young, The Beatles, and even Slayer, stripping them down to their emotional core through her distinctive interpretive lens.
What makes this collection truly compelling is Amos's radical reimagining of each song, often rendering the original music almost unrecognizable through her use of simple arrangements featuring piano, strings, and drum machines. Her pained, whispered vocals transform tracks like Eminem's "'97 Bonnie & Clyde" into haunting meditations, while her 70s-influenced approach to other material demonstrates her fearless creativity in tackling everything from heavy metal to classic rock with equal artistic conviction.
