TORI AMOS Abnormally Attracted To Sin "Fast Horse"

For me "Fast Horse" is a serious mix
of rock and roots , indigenous folk and prog music.

I think that Tori shows one of her numerous talents in this song
that has rarely been discussed.
I guess I would call it metric elision and expansion.
It is common in folk music, that chord lengths are changed to suit the words,
because we normally have one player and that person is singing .
The performer can easily change the chord lengths or duration
to suit the words , any time they wish .

But Tori will remove beats in the middle of a bar, and in the middle
of the phrase , to suit her lyrics, along with the end of a phrase.
And she makes it flow and we love it.
Its very difficult to make this type of elision sound natural ,
But she does it effortlessly.
The challenge is for the rest of us, playing with her, to be just as effortless. LOL

As mentioned in a previous post
I used these beauties:
Chamberlin Acoustic Piano Bank on the intros
Chamberlin Viola Bank
Optigan Violins Bank
Mellotron Viola and Flute (samples)
plus a few sythn bits.

And finally the Hammond A100 ( in the pix),
in the bridges and in the end.

I just love this song,
Tori's vocal and lyrics
Her piano ,and the way it rises up thru the chorus
with those great chords
And every ones performance,
THE WHOLE TRACK ROCKS!!! ........IMHO
