- Golden!Years ago when this single came out I took it with me to the beach and it saved my life. I was stuck in a nasty motor home infested with cockroaches and no form of entertainment but my cd-player. Thank God for Tori. Each night I listened to this single over and over again and 8 years later I still am in love with this single. Honey is my favorite. Mellow and somewhat dark, but so good. Daisy Dead Petals is good too, but the bridge part of this track gives me goosebumbs to this day. Sister Janet is simple yet otherworldly and magical. Of course the cornflake girl edit is cool to listen to after hearing the album version. Excellent disk!

- AmazingThis is a wonderful single! "Cornflake Girl" is one of those mainstream Tori songs that has remained extremely popular for years. Although this single has the edited version of it, it is an amazing song that always pleases. The three B-Side songs are incredible as well. "Sister Janet" is hauntingly beautiful - I've learned to play it on the piano myself and it has an extremely wonderful harmony to it. "Daisy Dead Petals" is beautiful in a quirky sort of way. But "Honey" takes the cake. This is one of my favorite Tori pieces to play on the piano, because it's composition at its best - it's gorgeous. Her vocals soar throughout the piece. Not to mention the lyrics, "and cowboys know, cowgirls ride, on the Indians' side." Tori never fails to amaze me with the beauty and depth of her musical abilities.

- "Cornflake Girl" a worth-it singleOf course "Cornflake Girl" is a great song, but the reason I like this single so much is because of the other songs. "Sister Janet" is sweet and soft. "Daisy Dead Petals" has that one awesome bridge, "Got a crack in, got a crack in some strange places..." and "Honey" is just a great song that could have easily gone on an album. I recommend this one highly.

- A single with some very nice b-side treats.The original version of the title track can be found on Amos's second solo release, "Under the Pink." The version here is the one used for the promotional video clip for the song. It is shortened dramatically, with a significant amount of content taken out. The reason for this is quite simple: the original is simply too long for radio and video play. Regardless, it worked: "Cornflake Girl" remains one of Amos's biggest hits to date. The b-sides on this single include the cute, but not ground-breaking, "Daisy Dead Petals," and some of Tori's best b-side work: the Amos fan favorite "Honey" and the haunting "Sister Janet."

- Two of Tori's best songs on one CD!!!!Cornflake Girl was the first song I ever heard by Tori, almost 10 years ago. It still is my favorite Tori song, too bad though the single includes the edited version. The b-sides make up for this, as Sister Janet and Daisy Dead Petals are fine tracks, but Honey (also available on the UK version of Pretty Good Year) is one of the best Tori has ever written & performed. Fans: buy this!
