Amos, Tori - Space Dog Lyrics

Love her! Does anyone else think her lyrics are on par with Dave Matthews?

Your feet were finally on the ground

"somewhere, someone must know the ending..."

The chorus 💙

oil spill... OIIILLLLLLLL SPILLLLLLLLLL!!! i love her, and her music! and the bobs burgers spoof of her!

This is an underappreciated gem.

When I first heard this song, I always misheard it as “spaced out” due to the quirky diction

Pissing in the river now...I think shes a Patti Smith fan.

Good song

I keep thinking tori is making a pun between so sure and "chaussure." Feet on the ground.

Where's Neil when you need him?

My favourite Tori Song...And I cant explain why.

Only Tori can use the word Pi$$ing and make it sound artistic and important.

I’m a widow lost at sea at night can’t sleep listening to the songs of a girlhood left lingering in the wind wondering how the words and chords could mean more to me now than then and if he were here right now would he could he want to hear them

So shure we had found something I was so sure

And to the one u thought was on ur side I still love u even if feal that I am flith for a few stumbles along the way but I never called u on ur Smokey truths

Love me some space dog and some lemon marag pie please

Why does this say Under the Pink came out in 1992? It was 1994.

Does anyone know what's up with the sexually perverted undertones this song has?

What would those be?

It took me seeing her do this live to truly appreciate it. Since then it’s one of my faves.

Demagoguery: Personified.

Not well known but absolutely one of the best songs of her!

Ismail özay funny because most of her well known songs don't rank at the top of my list. So many gems that weren't "hits".

chim0aera told me that she uploaded this because she owns this song

I love you tori! Over 20 years of devotion!

michelle Owens I fell for Tori when I heard Winter on an iceskating special in 96 or 97. Kristy Yamauchi preformed a routine to it.
Best kept secret at the dewdrop inn

This song is actually about a mushroom trip though

Surrealist song writer

That bridge starting with "Deck the halls, I'm young again, I'm you again..." is my absolute favorite Tori Amos moment. Genius!

mine too <3

I came to the comments specifically to say this; it's hair-raising even after all these years.

It’s gets me every time! Brilliantly moving to the core!

Under the Pink came out in 1994. Little Earthquakes came out in 1992.

"So Sure We Were On Something......"
Just Beautiful..

This song gives me goosebumps every.single.time.💖

One of my favorite songs from Under the Pink. Anyone have any idea what it's about lol?

The song is about a lot of things, but it began while she was reading a romance novel----not the G-rated kind---on an airplane.  Halfway through the book, she realized that somewhere out there, there was a little boy who was so embarrassed by his family that he was ignoring them and pretending he wasn't related to them at all.  Which brought back stuff from her childhood, and lo and behold, the song was born.

it's tori...our fairy goddess...it's about nothing and everything. it's actually three different songs she was working on

well i read today's horoscope and this song popped into my head: General June 16th, 2017

Fantasy and reality continue to clash as otherworldly Neptune begins its retrograde phase today, strengthening all things imaginary. The compassionate Pisces Moon picks up on Neptune's connection with spirituality, encouraging us to move beyond the intellectual barriers we create between one another. However, cerebral Mercury misaligns with perceptive Pluto, driving us to find the truth, like a needle in a haystack of illusions, myths and symbols.

Ive always thought it sounded like that

does anyone know what the second voice is singing in end?

If you listen to any of the live versions, she sings that part as the 'intro'

IceNine So sure those girls now are in the navy. Those bombs our friends can't even hurt you now. And hold those tears because they're still on your side. Don't hear the dogs barking. Don't say you've gone andromeda. Stood with those girls before. The hair in pairs it just got nasty. And now those girls are gone.

"Racing turtles, the grapefruit is winning...!"

favorite part :)

Luck is running out blood is winning.

For those wondering about some of the meaning in the song, the name "Space Dog" refers to mental states. "Space" being more spiritual, and "Dog" being more sexual.

I think it refers to the worship of the star Sirius or Alpha Canis Majoris

Oh Space dog...its nearly the Dog Days, once again,,,, I always had such a deep connection with a.....far fetched interpretation to this piece...it wakes something in me every time,,, Thanks for posting, totally favoriting. =O)

Siriusly !!

My devotion was then and now I Love all you do tori . Always you have taken me then and now xx
