Kate Bush, she has a much more diverse music and far more intresting then Tori, my opinion

Kate, although Tori's Little Earthquakes is excellent.

Hounds of love is the best female-vocal album that I have.
 
Kate has done other excellent stuff, but for that reason alone she'd be my number one female artist. Tori, who I quite like, can't compete (IMHO)

Although Kate may objectively be the better artist, I prefer to listen to Tori.  It is a matter of taste.

Kate is prog. Not sure about Tori
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I like Kate's vocal style better but Tori runs rings around on keyboards.  Tori came along and pretty much filled the void for me when Kate when on hiatus.  I wouldn't be without either of them in my collection.  Also you guys should check out Happy Rhodes if you like both but haven't yet.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I'm not sure about both, nevertheless Kate has my sympathy.

 I love both, and grew up listening to Kate, and as far as a prog artist goes she's got both "The Dreaming" and "Hounds Of Love"  right up there. Tori though, has a more expansive catalog, and I do prefer to listen to her these days, so she get's my vote.  
If you want more along these lines you should listen to Canada's Sarah Slean too !

Also Sarah McLachlan's first three albums also helped fill in the void for me when Kate went on hiatus.

Maybe someone could be interested by VEDA HILLE, this too discreet canadian artist signed on the Andy Partridge label.

I've only heard about two tunes by Tori Amos, so I can't really vote, but The Hounds Of Love is a great album - really unique voice that I appreciate.
