10 Best Fiona Apple Songs
Though she has a relatively small catalog, Fiona Apple is one of the most influential singer-songwriters of the 1990s. Her powerful voice, confessional lyrics, and heavy playing style have made an indelible mark in music, and these are 10 of what I think are her finest tracks.

'Death Stranding' Theory: Who is Mads Mikkelsen?
With so much hype for Death Stranding and so little information on what it is actually about and no release date yet, all fans can do is speculate. Creator Hideo Kojima, luckily, loves to leave trails of breadcrumbs for his fans to follow, giving them clues to piece together in the meantime. There's a lot of compelling evidence that Kojima's ideas for P.T. andSilent Hills were re-purposed for Death Stranding, including themes of infants, umbilical cords, and potentially Norman Reedus' character. But the character we probably know the least about is the one played by Mads Mikkelsen, the purported villain of the story. It can be hard to tell the purpose of a character without knowing about the story he takes part in, but it may be possible for us to glean some things from the clues we have.

'BioShock Infinite' Theory: Is Anna in the Crib?
Note: Spoilers for the ending of BioShock: Infinite. If you haven't finished it already, get on that! It's amazing. One of the biggest debates among BioShock: Infinite fans is the final ending to the game proper. We see Booker DeWitt awake in the all-too familiar office, perhaps with the memories of the alternate lives he's lived fading from his mind like a dream, feeling the need to check on baby Anna. He bursts into the room, runs towards the crib...

Tori Amos has a vast catalog of A-sides, B-sides, demos, remixes, soundtrack contributions, live variants, and covers. Just 10 songs will never be able to cover all of her moods, sounds, and experimentations, but in this article, I'll do my best to give an overview of what I think are her best tracks. In the interest of fairness to the expansiveness of Amos's discography, only one song per album was chosen. I chose these songs based on popularity, composition, lyrics, and emotional content. As I said, it's impossible to cover everything in 10 tracks, so I'd like to throw out a few honorable mentions:
