"In the Springtime of His Voodoo"
Song


"In the Springtime of His Voodoo" is a 1996 song written by singer-songwriter Tori Amos. It is a harpsichord-driven rock dirge and was included on her 1996 album Boys for Pele.

"In the Springtime of His Voodoo" was released in September 1996 as the fifth single from the Boys for Pele album in the US, containing remixes by house music producers Steve Donato and Vinny Vero.

This song was removed from the 1997 re-issued version of Boys for Pele in the UK and Australasia, due to time constraints after adding the Armand's Star Trunk Funkin' Mix of "Professional Widow". "In the Springtime of His Voodoo" was also remixed and released as a dance single, but was a much smaller club success.[1] Interest in the album resurfaced when Amos sang vocals on "Blue Skies", another club and dance hit by dance music artist BT that reached No. 1 on the Hot Dance/Club Play chart exactly one year after the release of Boys for Pele.[2]
