"A Sorta Fairytale" is a song written and performed by singer-songwriter Tori Amos.
It was released as a CD single (UK/Canada) with "Operation Peter Pan" as the B-side (which marked her final B-side to date), and as a DVD single (US) with the music video, co-starring Adrien Brody.
"A Sorta Fairytale" finds Scarlet back in LA with a man she has convinced herself is her life's soul mate.
They take the big trip in the classic car up the Pacific Coast highway and across the desert.
Interviewer: Because then when you sing about tasting heaven perfectly— Amos: And my mom thinks it's talking about a convertible!
[4] The music video, directed by Sanji, features Amos, as a head attached to a disembodied leg, falling in love with another head attached to a disembodied arm (played by Adrien Brody).
The two creatures show signs of romantic interest in one another, until the arm accidentally hurts the leg's feelings by laughing at her crooked fifth toe.
The leg then flees by jumping onto a passing skateboard, and ends up alone on a deserted beach.
The act of kissing causes the arm and leg to suddenly start swelling up and grow their extra body parts—they finally become complete, "whole" humans by realizing their love.
