I talked to Tori Amos, not only about her love for music, but also about her love
Berlin hahaha New York...
I am here in front of the „Konzerthaus", right on the Gendarmenmarkt
in Berlin
and Tori Amos received here an „Echo Classic". The „Echo" is one of the most renowned
awards in music industry and i talked to Tori Amos not only about her love for
music
but also, of course, about her love for Berlin.
When I am here I ´m always looking at the architecture as well.
You´re drawn to
the art, the design.
Songwriting is very much about design
and I´m drawn to visual design as well. What´s your relationship with Berlin?
Well
so many people that I know consider this
their favourite city not in the whole world
and I would love
to get shown it through the eyes of people that know it.
Do you think that, ´cause we know you´d been singing about many terrible things
that have happened to you,
do you think music saved your life in a way?
Well, I think,
music, without music, I don´t know what would have happened to me.
I think, it's a great healer
and I think that
by creating you turn destructive things into,
you know, you birth something.
So out of
negativity or violence or
incredible
wounding
you turn a wound into,
uh...
a magical expression and I think
that's really the power that music has to heal.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
