Both female? Check.
Both singer/songwriters? Check.
Both with a unique performing style? Check.
Both cited as a major influence to many who came after them? Check.

That's how I felt when I read it but I don't know enough about Amos to be sure.

1) The music scene has been dwindling in my town for the past decade with the exception of a few Jazz clubs

2) Barely ever get a 'White Christmas'

I seriously thought the bars were real when I first heard them. I only saw the gunshot bars not the whole sketch so didn't clock it was a parody, but it says a lot about the scene that I could believe it was genuine.
