My second favorite album by Tori. This one and SW are always fighting for the nuber one spot, but SW won.

The only song that I don't enjoy on this one is Jackie's Strength. Otherwise, it's top-notch. Liquid Diamonds, Cruel, Hotel, Black-Dove and She’s Your Cocaine are among my favorite songs by anyone.

Just a great album. What more can I say?

Not too crazy about Jackie's Strength either, it just kinda stuck out for me as not really fitting with the rest of the mood, it also drags a bit. Raspberry Swirl felt odd too, but more fitting as it seems to go together with She's Your Cocaine.

There's so much to love about that cover, it's very other worldly, like a dark world filled with water and music. The flatness of the garment like a cutout for a collage, the way it doesn't quite look like her as though it was taken underwater, the lost found parts of her body with her head completely disconnected, it's all very murky in there, the hair all over like it's underwater. Pressed up against something like she's trapped.

Water also seems to be a big theme for this album, Liquid Diamonds, Hotel, Pandora's Aquarium all give me that feeling of singing from below.
