ain’t really deep thoughts

No, she’s not Tori Amos.

Not almost…. maybe…

But she’s a hell of a pianist, and a great artist for that matter.

It’s a good thing that we have an ISHA here in the Philippines. I need not to fantasize anymore of witnessing tori perform live and feel frustrated right after. Wait! No. I still yearn to see tori making love to her piano and scream and croon out of pain, frustration or pure bliss.

ISHA. No, she’s not a Tori Amos copycat. She’s a girl-and-piano of her own making, although she professes that she is a toriphile herself. She does Tori covers in her gigs. Leather seems to be her favorite Tori classic, because it is always present in her repertoire. But last night at Mag:Net, she did the unexpected. She covered my all time favorite Tori song - Tear In Your Hand. Well, it ain’t as good as the original. Isha jazzed it up a little and she did it just fine. But it was the last song that really plucked my heart’s strings. Her cover of Indigo Girls’ Ghost was breathtaking, and i must say even far better than the original. It was the perfect swan song that night.

I wish you all the best ISHA. I would be so so happy to see you making it BIG in the future.
