I always thought that with 'Holy Name Church' that he was being willfully vague until I was strolling through Manchester one day and saw a church called 'The Holy Name Church'. |

I think I read in an interview somewhere that this was about masturbastion. It would certainly fit in with the concept of a man that she only realises is there when she goes to bed and turns off the light. The man with the child in his eyes is an idealised sexual partner. |

| Tori Amos – Scarlet's Walk Lyrics

This song, and the whole album to some extent, reminded me of tangled up in blue by bob dylan. I've not subjected this to a strict interpretation; but it puts me in mind of two characters, one red one blue, following, chasing and loosing each other in a dance across the country. Obviously we are aware of Scarlet; but there are a few oblique menntions of blue in the forms of violets, blues and i believe lithium is mentioned somewhere else in the album. Why precicelsy they are trailing each other, and who is following who (blue or red) is not clear; but then do you ever know your reasons when you find yourself on those hazy modern urban quests? |
