"..there's a wonderful acceptance in Cloud On My Tongue, an acceptance of being in circles and circles again. That's its whirlpool vat. It all leads to that. --I travel a lot around the world, and I went to all sorts of places,
and I ran in to different people. Borneo had something that I didn't have. It was a very free, hot, jungly place, and the people that, or a person that came from there, had something that I didn't have that I desperately wanted, which was this no rigidity.
When I say Leave the wood outside, what, all the girls here are freezing cold, leave me with your Borneo...Or don't leave me with your Borneo, because I've had it before, and that's why I need the wood, because it just -- you can go now, you're already in there, whether it's pregnant or whether it's just infused. You don't even have to hang around and watch me disintegrate, because you've already done your job. You've already accomplished what you wanted, which was another scalp on your belt, and you did it. That's not one of my more favorite men songs."
-- Tori; The Baltimore Sun, 1994
"I crawled up in a flower when this one was being written it was safe there
and I wasn't ready to let this one in too deep it was already too close"
-- Tori; Under The Pink Songbook
The To Venus And Back: Still Orbiting album contains a live version of Cloud On My Tongue, recorded during the Plugged '98 Tour.
