I'm a fan because... one singing lesson, a girl in our class sang her practice piece to us without any music accompanying her. The song was Black Dove (January) and even though it wasn't sung by Tori and had no music I fell in love with its haunting and unconventional lyrics. I was reminded of Sarah McLachlan, who I am also a fan of.

Not long after this I heard more of Tori's music and became a fan. I love the way she makes music with her voice, rather than singing along to the music (if that makes sense). The piano seems an extension of her.

It's nice to see someone so beautiful and talented who could have gone the pop route on her looks alone, like so many pop stars out there now, but has decided to be completely unique and uncomforming.

I don't think I'm expressing what I mean very well so I'll end here and just say that I love Tori's music because it is passionate, beautiful, and different.
