I'm still a little unsure exactly how I feel about the whole Strange Little Girls album concept of covering male songs, but the song Strange Little Girl is arguably the best song on the album. This CD contains the album version, not any kind of new mix. What makes this album worth the money are the two new tracks it includes. Not surprisingly, these are two more cover songs. After All is a David Bowie song, while Only Women Bleed is an Alice Cooper creation. After All is a good song, but it seems to lack the real Tori magic. Only Women Bleed, on the other hand, has the old Tori feel to it and easily serves as the highlight of this CD. I have not heard Alice Cooper's version, so I cannot compare it to that, but it is the kind of dark, moody, angst-ridden song that Tori excels at. Apparently, this CD was only released in Germany, which makes it a little pricey, but it is well worth the money. Not every Toriphile will own a copy, and that makes it a rather special item in my own Tori collection.

Being a huge fan of Tori Amos I was hugely excited to get this single. I had already heard the title track "Strange Little Girl" and loved it. It was a very radio friendly track, which was odd because Tori is not usually radio friendly. However, a title track does not make a CD worthwhile, instead we find two extra covers not featured on the StrangeLittleGirls album. Luckily what stands here are two outstanding b-sides. Both have a piano ballad feel to them, which I love. Tori's voice is amazing and the piano is beautiful on both tracks. "After All", a David Bowie cover, is haunting,yet fulfilling at the same time. A great cover. "Only Women Bleed" is even better. It is absolutely astounding. Who knew an Alice Cooper cover could be so soft and inviting. Overall, a great CD. A bit pricy(I found it cheaper on ebay), but well worth it to any Toriphile.

Worth it for the cover of "Only Women Bleed" alone, though I admit I have fond childhood memories of my mother house-cleaning to Alice Cooper and "Only Women Bleed" is one I remember the most. Tori keeps the song intact, with the rise on the word "bleed" that you just wait for, but she really makes it her own; anyone hearing it for the first time would think it was one of the "Boys for Pele" b-sides.
