Tori's "Strange Little Girls" album was #10 in 20 best albums of 2001 in the January 2002 issue of Spin Magazine. Here is what they said about "Strange Little Girls":

"In which one of Eminem's tall tales becomes a ghost story, Neil Young's "Heart of Gold" becomes Iggy's "I Wanna Be Your Dog," and two George Bushes blubber about how, well, sometimes happiness isn't a warm gun. Even when the ideas outrun the treatments, they'll get under your skin. And as the wartime body counts rise, art that forsakes memoir to get inside the head of the Other is exactly what we'll need."
