CollectNotes: Click For More Facts About This ItemIn 2002, Tori fans were invited to host "Happy Birthday" parties for Tori Amos around the US to raise money for RAINN, the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network. As a thank you, a package was sent to all party hosts which included a CD with this acapella "Birthday Song" sung by Tori herself. The CD displays the date of the party, but the CD was actually sent on the same day as the included letter. Thanks to Kim Nicholas and yessaid for the information.
Lyrics to the "Birthday Song" by Tori Amos
Don't know what I'm about to say
guess that it's somebody's birthday
but I think I like
cake all over
Yes, I know it's a pretty good time
to be with people with like minds
don't know what to say, never did
So, chocolate and berry
vanilla, oh don't get carried
away, but why not
when it's your birthday
It could be of a friend
It could be of someone that
you're not quite knowing
but why not, I say
Don't know what to say
guess it's somebody's birthday
and I know I wouldn't want to
spend it any way
but with you, so
I need go and
I need you to know,
thank you

In June 1994, Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), a toll-free help line in the US connecting callers with their local rape crisis center, was partly founded by Tori. Herself a survivor of sexual assault, she became the first national spokesperson for the organization.CD-R
CD-Rs or Reference CDs are now usually used in place of acetates or test pressings. These allow the artist and producer to hear the work before it is delivered to the label as finished or to provide a quick advance copy of the finished work. CD-Rs can only be recorded one time. CD-Rs are usually packaged in a plain jewel case or sleeve with an insert from the studio containing information regarding the recording. Because of their relatively small numbers, CD-Rs are extremely collectible and valuable.Lyrics to the "Birthday Song" by Tori Amos
