多莉*艾莫丝的钢琴很棒，他的遭遇也很离奇，她曾经被人强奸，然后她报仇杀了那个罪犯，之后，又一首歌就是写这段经历的。原来她并不成功，1987年得第一张专辑《Y kant Tori read》遇上了不可避免的失败。就是因为那张自传性的单曲《Me and a gun》使她走红。其后的专辑《Little earthquakes》是她的转折点。1994年发行的专辑《Under the pink》是她的事业高峰。96年发行专辑《Boys for pele》。1999年，Tori amos带来专辑《To Venus and back》。
在Tori amos的音乐中，钢琴完全取代了现代流行乐的主要支柱——吉他。这无疑在无形中增加了Tori amos的诗人气质与悲剧气氛，让人在不知不觉中很自然地以为钢琴就是为女性而准备的，浑然一体。

With a strut into the room
With his hat cocked sure defiantly
He said "I, I have heard
That you can play the way I like it to be played."
I said, "I can play, anyway that you want.
But first I want, I want to know
Baby is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer
to the tip of this scorpion's tail"
He said "I laid my weapons
down with my pistol
Fully loaded, a hunted man
To my root, will it end
Or begin in your cinnabar juice?"
Is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer
to the tip of this scorpion's tail"
Love let me breathe
Breathe you in
Melt the confusion
Until there is
There is your - union
Baby is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer
to the tip of this scorpion's tail"
