1000 Oceans
"1000 Oceans" is a song by Tori Amos, released as the second single from her 1999 album ''To Venus and Back''. It reached number twenty-two on the Hot 100 Singles Sales, though it did not chart on the Hot 100.〔 〕 The song deals with issues of love and loss, and is based on the singer's personal experiences. It was released on September 7, 1999, and was generally well received by critics. ==Background== Amos has explained that the idea for the song came to her in a dream. An old African woman was humming the melody to her, and she got up around 5:30 in the morning to record it. Writing the song, she describes the transition from the melody line around the words "I can’t believe that I would keep, keep you from flying" to "and I would cry 1000 more" as particularly difficult, and what took the longest time.〔 The inspiration for the lyrics came when her father-in-law died, and she claims the song helped her husband deal with the grieving process.〔 The lyrics contain reference to Silbury Hill, an ancient mound in Wiltshire, England. This is a place often visited by Amos and her husband.
