THE CONCEPT OF THE STRANGE LITTLE GIRLS ALBUM

Tori's latest album is an album of cover songs, but is more than that. Carefully selected, these songs are all written by men, and take certain views towards women in society. From this, Tori has given a female perspective to the songs, a female voice, through subtle re-writes and new ways of delivering the song. The album provides a look at the state of women in society today. Further, Tori has created a character with a story for each song, with the assistance of author Neil Gaiman (Neverwhere; American Gods; Sandman comics). Pictures of Tori in character grace the album booklet and cover. You can see these pictures by visiting the SLG lyrics page (linked below); for each song that currently has its character photo revealed, the picture is posted by its lyrics. Now that you know what you are getting into, here's the goodies!
