"Lennon and McCartney were the greatest songwriters who ever lived, and you're just a ding-brain if you don't think so."
-- Tori; Musician Magazine, May 1997
My first celebrity crush: "It was definately between Jim Morrison, Robert Plant and John Lennon: I liked a man with a mind, but it's not as if they're abhorrent to look at. I think Robert's passion made him, Jim Morrison had an aura about him, and you had to be in love with John lennon's mind. I thought they were all equally sexy."
-- Tori; UK Boyz Magazine, Oct 12, 2002
"I was really into John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix; in their opinion,
they were 'not worthy'. Unless it was Chopin and Mozart, they (Peabody Conservatory) didn't wanna
know. Then I came and played John Lennon, and they said, this is
unacceptable --- and I said, if Mozart were alive today, he'd have listened
to John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix; they totally messed up, so I got kicked
out."
-- Tori; Elf 99 Interview
"There are high points, there are things that you hear
where you go...and a person who has a direct line to the
creative source. I felt that with John Lennon, and with Joni
Mitchell's early stuff and with Jimnmy Page. There are many
other musicisn who have that..Jim Morrison, the Stones, huge
groups of people, Stevie Wonder...but my big (more)
influences were John Lennon, Jimmy Page and Joni Mitchell."
