I think their rankings should be reversed. My vote is for DP.

Daft Punk. My feelings on this matter have been well documented.

Daft Punk. I smell a robot blowout.

Daft Punk. I still defend Tori's seed. And I think some people have completely forgotten the past. Yes, I know Jeff never liked this album. It doesn't hold up that well, but it got its seed based on its quick start. Think Clemson, if it won a few more late-season games. But the robots win.

There's no such thing as Tori Amos Fridays.

...Ich, you know that room at the end of '1984?' In my version of that room, 'Silent All These Years' is on 'repeat' on the stereo and I am chained to a chair for all eternity without so much as a bucket to ralph in. Oh yes, thus is my physical aversion to Tori Amos.
I neither love nor hate DP, but I'll go with it... If not only because, at the very least, it doesn't make me throw up in my mouth. (And really, what more can you ask from an album?)

I'll take the LCD Soundsystem view that Daft Punk is playing at my house. Come on over for the party.
Advantage Daft Punk.

The 5-12 upset never fails. DP.

This is a tough one, as this was probably Tori's peak. I'd go with Tori back then, but I choose Daft Punk now.
Daft Punk.

Good Golly, Tori Amos-never. Such a terrible waste of piano. And she always has those expensive ones. And soon she wil have a new album out. Does it ever stop?
Daft Punk probabbly doesn't deserve a vote but in competition with Tori-anyone can win.

Daft Punk. I will admit to singing along to Tori many a time way back when, but I'm not going to let the past dictate the present.
