Strange Little Girls
The CD Booklet

Updated September 16, 2001

This page gives details about the CD booklet for Tori's Strange Little Girls album. If you want to read about the album cover, back of the album, or actual disc itself, go here.

As shown above, the CD booklet includes 16 pages, including the cover image, 2 pages of text, and 13 pages with the characters on them. The booklet is not really a book with pages, but folds out into a long strip. One of the pages of text includes album credits and Tori's thank yous, and the other includes detailed information about each track on the album. The remainder of the booklet includes the characters Tori portrays for each song. There is one page for each character. Each image has a sentence of text over it, which was written by Neil Gaiman for each character. This is the first Tori album that does NOT include lyrics in the CD booklet.

Special thanks to Jonathan for sending me a scan of the entire booklet. The top part shows one side when it is fully unfolded, and the bottom part shows the other side.

A big thank you to Martijn Tulp, Arjan Welles and Kirily Suggett for scanning each page of the CD booklet for me.

Here are the sentences Neil Gaiman wrote for each character. (Thanks Hirjas.)

New Age: All your tomorrows start here
Strange Little Girl: Whenever it rains you think of her
Time: One day you will open your eyes and see her
Enjoy The Silence: Thirty-five years a showgirl
Rattlesnakes: She rides rollercoasters but never screams
I'm not in Love: She forgets him utterly and forever
Bonnie & Clyde: She wonders what her daughter will do
I Don't Like Mondays: She found the first body in a stairwell
Happiness: The smell of cordite always makes her think of the fourth of July
Raining Blood: Actually the Gestapo picked her up
Heart of Gold: It's not glamorous... (on the twin pic) ...it's just business.
Real Men: All of these things are true.
