==Background== On Tori Amos' second solo album, the singer-songwriter continued to offer piano-driven [[rock music|rock]] songs dealing with religion, gender, and sexuality. In addition to featuring more cryptic lyrics and experimental song structures, Amos invited in [[reggae]] influences on the single "[[Cornflake Girl]]", [[prepared piano]] on "Bells for Her" by [[John Philip Shenale]],<ref>{{Cite web |title=Bells for her by Tori Amos |url=https://www.songfacts.com/facts/tori-amos/bells-for-her |website=Song Facts}}</ref> and [[Claude Debussy|Debussy]]-inspired piano lines on "Yes, Anastasia".
Amos performed the ''Under the Pink'' tour from February through November 1994, encompassing many of the same stops as on the previous world tour. A limited edition release of the album commemorating the Australian tour included a second disc entitled ''More Pink'', a collection of rare [[A-side and B-side|B-sides]] like "Little Drummer Boy" and a cover version of [[Joni Mitchell]]'s "[[A Case of You (song)|A Case of You]]", was issued in November 1994. During this period, she also contributed the song "Butterfly" to the soundtrack for the 1994 movie ''[[Higher Learning]]'', as well as a cover of the [[R.E.M.]] song "[[Losing My Religion]]".
The original track listing included the B-side "Honey", which was left off the album at the last minute. Amos has since voiced great regret for this: <blockquote>"There were certain songs that were supposed to be on the record that got kicked off. 'Honey' was supposed to be on the record and, in retrospect, I wish it had been. I kicked it off for 'The Wrong Band'. ''Under the Pink'' wept when 'Honey' wasn't on, and she still is angry with me about it."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.yessaid.com/talk/1honey.html|title=Bee-Sides|work=yessaid.com|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090625132719/http://www.yessaid.com/talk/1honey.html|archive-date=June 25, 2009}}</ref></blockquote> Amos made a similar reference to the song "Here. In My Head" which was originally featured as a B-side to the UK single of "[[Crucify (song)|Crucify]]".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.yessaid.com/talk/1hereinmyhead.html|title=Bee-Sides|work=yessaid.com|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110718142134/http://www.yessaid.com/talk/1hereinmyhead.html|archive-date=July 18, 2011}}</ref>
The album was recorded in [[Taos, New Mexico]] in a [[hacienda]]. The album artwork features several [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] and New Mexican references in the photography. The album is also notable as the last Amos album to feature the production of [[Eric Rosse]] as they split that year.
==Singles== ''Under the Pink'' produced four singles. "[[Cornflake Girl]]" was released as the first single from the album in Europe and Australia and as the second single in North America. It became Amos's biggest international hit at the time, peaking at number four in the UK.<ref name=occ>{{cite web|url=http://www.officialcharts.com/artist/27268/tori-amos/|title=Official Charts > Tori Amos|publisher=[[Official Charts Company|The Official UK Charts Company]]|access-date=April 9, 2016}}</ref> "[[God (Tori Amos song)|God]]" was released as the first single in the United States in February 1994, becoming her first [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] chart entry, peaking at number 72.<ref name=hot100>{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/430284/tori-amos/chart?f=379|title=Billboard > Artists / Tori Amos > Chart History > The Hot 100|magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]|access-date=April 9, 2016}}</ref> "God" was released as the second single from the album in Australia and as the fourth single in Europe. "[[Pretty Good Year]]" was released as the second single in Europe and the fourth single in Australia but was not released as a single in the United States. "[[Past the Mission]]", featuring backing vocals from [[Trent Reznor]] of [[Nine Inch Nails]], was the third single from the album in all territories.
==B-sides== European pressings of the "Cornflake Girl" CD single, and the US pressing of the "God" CD single, contained the B-sides "All the Girls Hate Her" and "Over It". "Sister Janet" appeared on both the European and US pressing of the "Cornflake Girl" single, and a B-side of the US cassette single for "God", while the US CD single of "God" also contained "Home on the Range – Cherokee Edition". The US "Cornflake Girl" CD single, which had different artwork to international pressings, contained a radio edit of the title track, plus the songs "Daisy Dead Petals" and "Honey". A limited edition second CD single for "Cornflake Girl" was issued in the UK, containing cover versions of Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You", [[Jimi Hendrix]]'s "[[If 6 Was 9]]", and [[Billie Holiday]]'s "[[Strange Fruit]]".
Part one of the UK CD single "Pretty Good Year" contained the B-sides "Home on the Range – Cherokee Edition" and "Daisy Dead Petals". The latter track was used as a B-side on the US pressing of "Cornflake Girl". "Honey" and "Black Swan" appeared as B-sides on part two of the UK "Pretty Good Year" CD single.
Seven live tracks were spread across a two-part CD single release for "Past the Mission" in the UK. Live versions of "Upside Down", "Past the Mission", "Icicle" and "Flying Dutchman" appeared on the limited edition part one disc, and live versions of "Winter", "The Waitress" and "Here. In My Head" appeared on part two.
The UK release of "God" contained several remixes of the title track.

Reviewing ''Under the Pink'' for ''[[Rolling Stone]]'', Marie Elsie St. Léger opined that the album "doesn't match Amos' riveting, piano-only live performances, but it sure comes close", calling it an "honest reporting of a life fraught with turmoil and disappointment."<ref name="St. Léger"/> ''[[Chicago Tribune]]'' critic Brad Webber noted "the latent feminism" throughout ''Under the Pink'' and highlighted Amos's "tough veneer" and "genuine" emotion,<ref name="Webber"/> while ''[[USA Today]]''{{'}}s [[Edna Gundersen]] said that Amos had made "big strides" with an album that "finds her blasting patriarchy and breaking free of religious repression, victimhood and sexual guilt."<ref name="Gundersen"/> Jean Rosenbluth of the ''[[Los Angeles Times]]'', however, found Amos's lyrics "so obtuse—in an overreaching stab at profundity—that they're almost meaningless",<ref name="Rosenbluth"/> a sentiment echoed by [[John Harris (critic)|John Harris]] of ''[[NME]]'', who likened listening to the album to being "locked in a semantic castle".<ref name="Harris"/>
Retrospectively, [[AllMusic]]'s Ned Raggett stated that ''Under the Pink'' "has often been considered a transitional album" and thus tends to be "unfairly neglected when in fact it has as good a claim as any to be one of the strongest, and maybe even the strongest, record she has put out."<ref name="Raggett"/> Writing for ''[[Record Collector]]'', Nicola Rayner said that the album, like its 1992 predecessor ''[[Little Earthquakes]]'', explored "weighty subjects in raw, confessional songs that reimagined the piano as a sensual and provocative instrument."<ref name="Rayner"/> Barry Walters of ''[[Pitchfork (website)|Pitchfork]]'' observed that Amos, allowed more creative freedom by her label following the commercial success of ''Little Earthquakes'', "accentuated the orchestral pomp on some tracks while shrewdly deviating from it on others", while also noting that "''Pink''{{'}}s extroverted arrangements worked as hard as ''Earthquakes''{{'}} lyrics and melodies."<ref name="Walters"/>
== Reissues == A double-disc version of ''Under the Pink'' was released on November 14, 1994<ref>{{cite web |title=ARIA Report > New Releases 14th November 1994 (from the ARIA Report Issue No. 248 – Week Ending 13th November 1994) |url=http://i.imgur.com/SDHoRMh.jpg |access-date=April 9, 2016 |publisher=[[Australian Recording Industry Association|ARIA]]}}</ref> by [[East West Records|East West]] to coincide with Amos's tour of Australia and New Zealand. The second disc, titled ''More Pink: The B-Sides'' was never released separately, and is a rarity amongst Tori Amos collectibles. Amos would not release another collection of B-sides until 2006's ''A Piano: The Collection''. The packaging simply inserted the normal Australian release of ''Under the Pink'' in a double jewel case, and altered the back insert artwork so that instead of being blank it featured the track listing of the second disc as well as production information for the songs. The title ''More Pink'' may be misleading, as many of the B-sides on the disc did not come from ''Under the Pink'' singles but in fact from ''Little Earthquakes'', and in one case, from a Christmas compilation.
The double-disc set entered the Australian [[ARIA Charts]] Top 100 Albums chart on the week ending December 11, 1994, peaking at number 44 and spending 6 weeks on the chart.<ref name="ryan">{{cite web |title=Screen shot from Gavin Ryan's ''Australia's Music Charts 1988–2010'' book |url=http://i.imgur.com/ruIJf1r.png |access-date=November 18, 2015 |publisher=Moonlight Publishing |location=Mt. Martha, VIC, Australia}}</ref> However, it was listed on the chart as a re-entry of ''Under the Pink'', with its weeks spent charting added to the 21-week tally achieved earlier by the album.<ref name="ryan" />
A 2-disc deluxe edition of the album was released on April 14, 2015 by [[Rhino Records]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Pre-Order: Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes & Under the Pink Deluxe Editions|url=https://www.rhino.com/article/pre-order-tori-amos-little-earthquakes-under-the-pink-deluxe-editions |access-date=2023-10-15 |website=www.rhino.com |language=en}}</ref> This bonus disc included seven b-sides, one remix and seven live performances from the various singles released from the album in 1994. Three b-sides were missing from this release; a cover of "[[A Case of You (song)|A Case of You]]" by [[Joni Mitchell]], a cover of "[[If 6 Was 9]]" by [[The Jimi Hendrix Experience]] and a cover of "[[Strange Fruit]]" by [[Billie Holiday]], all of which were exclusively released in the [[United Kingdom]] on a limited edition CD single of "[[Cornflake Girl]]".
