Tori Amos – “Gasoline Girls”

Kasia Wozniak

Tori Amos, a singer-songwriter with a lot of incredible music in her catalog, is busy right now. She's currently on tour in the UK, and she recently covered Bob Dylan with the BBC Concert Orchestra and played her 2005 song "Witness" for only the second time ever at her tour opener. Amos' new album In Times Of Dragons comes out in a couple of weeks, and we've posted the early tracks "Stronger Together" and "Shush." She's got another one today.

Amos' florid, majestic new track "Gasoline Girls" hits right in that Tori Amos zone, and it's apparently about a lesbian motorcycle gang. In a press release, Amos says, "This is a metaphor for many different transformations — from a teenage girl becoming a woman, to shifts in gender identity or fundamental belief systems, to the life changes that come with pregnancy, motherhood, and eventually menopause. The song explores the emotions that come with leaving one version of yourself behind and stepping into another." Check it out below.

In Times Of Dragons is out 5/1 via Universal/Fontana.
