Now, I hate to be the one to point this out...but as far as I know, it's pronounced "OM-NI-SHENT", not "OM-NI-SEE-ENT". This is going to bug the shit outta me every time I hear that song...
In Australian English (and just about any other close relative of British English, like South African or New Zealand to name a couple), it is pronounced the way it is on the album. In fact, in the Collins and Oxford Australian English dictionaries, the only pronunciation given is identical to that on the album.
I know that "OM-NI-SHENT" is the American pronunciation, but have no idea what the accepted Canadian pronunciation is (perhaps Canadians use both American and British pronunciations, depending on the region?).
Either way, I'm not complaining - in my books, Ziltoid's version is the correct version, and I would have found the American pronuncation to be as irritating as you find the British pronunciation
As for the album - absolutely brilliant!

Who cares, really? Tori Amos has been pronouncing words wrong for years. It's part of her musical personality. It's not like this is when Insane Clown Posse replaced "the" with "thy" throughout the booklet of one of their albums, not realizing that none of it made sense after that because "thy" means "your!" Hahaha.

I see. And the lead singer from Slipknot sings the word "business" as it is written...."biz-a-niz". What a wild, wacky world we live in.
Keeker: For correcting me, I shall give you 20 lashes.
But not with a lash.
I think we both know what with....
I've been going around my classroom today with a mug of tea, sipping it and saying to whatever student is nearby, "FETID!"
Man, I'd like to do that too, lol.
The only problem is that no one would understand it
. "Fetid" translated into Finnish doesn't sound too cool.
Lemuavaa!
