NORUDENSUTAMU SUTINA

Post by sound world »

Found this (hilarious) Google translation of a Japanese Wiki page about Stina. Worth reading for lots of laugh-out-loud moments-

It says among other things that Tori Amos has done a cover of 'Under your command'.Is this really so,o Tori experts?

First i've heard of it although i'm definately not a Tori expert.
Maybe they were getting muddled with her 'Under The Pink' (album) ?

Dynamite was released '97, right? So I'm pretty confident that Tori has not covered 'Under Your Command' - pretty much every cover she's done live since the Dew Drop Inn tour in '96 is available in audio, because she's been obsessively bootlegged since that tour. As far as I know, the only significant cover that wasn't taped is her version of Bjork's 'Hyperballad'.

It's just possible that she covered something from an earlier Stina album in the pre-DDI period. Bootlegs from the first couple of tours are scarce. But I've never heard or read any mention of her covering Stina at all.

I'd love it if she did, though. It'd be hilarious because they're such polar opposites as writers and singers - Stina so spare and compressed, Tori so voluble and theatrical. Ha. :D

Thought that it was unlikely.Thanks,Beth.
Another thing attributed to Stina on that page is Chasing Dorotea 2002 .Which I looked up,and it's a band who do have a Stina soundalike-but it ain't Stina.So whoever wrote this Wiki has a few wires crossed.Pity,because the gist of it is much better than the Wiki in English.
