4.0 out of 5 stars A short release that includes one of her greatest songs., January 15, 2005

This review is from: Spark Pt 2 / Cooling / Do It Again (Audio CD)

The title track is from her 1998 album, "from the choirgirl hotel." Along with three color postcards, this single includes her unique cover of Steely Dan's "Do it Again" (a song fans continue to ask her to play live, but she has yet to supply). It also includes one of her best songs she has written to date" "Cooling." Originally written for her 1996 album, "Boys for Pele," "Cooling" is a beautiful composition highlighting Tori's ethereal and beautiful voice, immense talent on the piano, and poetic way with lyrics. It takes you to the core of who Tori Amos is, and afterward all you can think about is travelling through it again. It may go in through your ears, but it goes straight to your heart, never letting its relentless beauty escape from its new found home.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST FOR ANY COLLECTOR, August 3, 2000

This import is definately a must-have for anyone who seeks to own all the B-sides. This particular version hails from Germany, and you will find that two of the songs on it are not available anywhere else. Tori's cover of "Do It Again" by Steely Dan is excellent! Her completely fresh and unique take on this classic rock staple once again showcases her creative range. A live version of "Cooling" was featured on To Venus and Back, but this is the only place to hear the studio version, which includes segments that were omitted during the live performance. A great buy guaranteed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard to Find, Act Now, November 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Spark Pt 2 / Cooling / Do It Again (Audio CD)

Those who bought "TO VENUS AND BACK" heard the song "Cooling", where she explains was out of place on the albums "BOYS FOR PELE" and then again on "FROM THE CHORIGIRL HOTEL". So beautiful, you've gotta ask yourself: "where is the original version of this?"

Here.

The song, remarkable as it is, comes off even better than the live version (no easy task), and also features the songs "Spark" and the cover song "Do it Again". Tori knocks them both out of the court, putting a very "She's Your Cocaine"/"Liquid Diamonds" edge to "Do it Again" (see: "CHOIRGIRL").

It is somewhat hard to find, as the most common is the one with the "Purple People"/"Bachlorette" and the "Purple People"/"Bachlorette"/"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas". I suggest you try out this one too. You will be far, far, far from disappointment.
