Tori Amos' new album is inspired by her fascination with "erotic spirituality".

The 'A Sorta Fairytale' singer says upcoming LP 'Abnormally Attracted to Sin' - her first album on Universal Republic - is all about women, power and "inner strength".

She explained: "I am kind of fascinated with the idea of erotic spirituality. I wanted to investigate what people are attracted to. Some of the songs are about situations where people are struggling with their power and find themselves attracted to people that have power over them.

"Dominance has become an aphrodisiac for some women. But there are also songs about women finding their inner strength."

The 45-year-old star - who is due to release the album on May 19 - believes her fans will particularly connect with one track, 'Maybe California'.

She said: "We define powerful men with being providers. We're back to that idea of power again, how to define what is power. When you have a relationship where both are not feeling powerful, because we've equated success with having a job and the breadwinner is laid off, the effect that that can have on the family is beyond description."
