Datura (song)
"Dātura" or "Datura" is a song written and recorded by American singer Tori Amos. It is the ninth song of Amos's fifth record ''To Venus and Back'', which was released in September 1999. It is included in the first disc of the double album subtitled "Orbiting" that contains eleven original studio recordings. The song lists the names of the plants found in Amos's garden and was created during the recording sessions of ''To Venus and Back''. The song's title refers to datura, a plant known for its toxic and hallucinogenic properties. Amos has never performed the song live due to its complex structure and time signatures which makes it hard to reproduce with a live band. However, in 2011 Amos incorporated the "room in my heart" bridge when performing "Take to the Sky" during her concert in Brussels on October 29, 2011 . She also performed the song in a similar fashion throughout the Unrepentant Geraldines Tour.
==History and Background==
In interviews promoting "To Venus and Back" Amos has stated "Dātura" was created fully in a studio setting, almost as an elaboration of an improvisation. It was written and recorded at Martian Engineering, Amos's studio in Cornwall, England. The lyrics are derived from the plants that were found in Amos's garden. A list of the plant names was handed to Amos by her gardener. Apparently, most of the plants in her garden had died, except for datura, which Amos found striking since it is known as a hallucinogen. Amos was in the studio with drummer Matt Chamberlain when the song was created.
Eventually the song, which is over 8 minutes long, was included on ''To Venus and Back'', causing another song Amos was still trying to fix, "Zero Point", to be cut off the record.
