In the HOMEGROUND camp, Krys loves Tori, and thinks she owes more
to Joni Mitchell than anyone - musically.

For myself, I appreciate Tori's music. She has her themes, and at
the moment appears to be sticking to them. It is her record company
who saw the vacancy Kate has left in the market and aimed Tori straight
at it, very succesfully. Tori is making hay whilst the sun shines and
I say good luck to her. Her record company, in a different way are doing the
same thing.
