The Eagles.

The Eagles in their song "Take it easy" I guess it means he was upright on his feet at an intersection of two streets....

Funny, but I was kinda hoping for something a little more insightful. Theres usually a reason an artist will make an intertextual reference, especially someone like Tori.

Well if I remember correctly Tori sings "standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona and I'm quite sure I'm in the wrong song"- The Boys for Pele album has a lot of references about failed relationships with men and craving female company - I think the reference is to do with the Eagles "Take It Easy" being a bit of a boy anthem. Just a theory - it's not a song I understand that well either!

The eagles wrote the song. and i don't know anything about tori amos singing any of the choruses. sorry
-
The Eagles "Take it Easy" has these words in it. I don't know why Tori Amos would use it in a song.

I know that "Standing on the Corner" is actually a festival that is put on in Winslow Arizona everyear. So when the Eagles say it in there song "Standing on the Corner in Winslow Arizona, I'm such a fine sight to see. It's a girl my lord in a flatbed ford slowing down to take a look at me." He is probably at that festival. I also know that now every year at this particular festival they have an Eagles cover band because of that line in that song. But, I don't know what Tori is talking about. I guess possibly the same thing.

Actually, everyone who answered so far is close but not quite dead-on. The Eagles did have a big hit with "Take it Easy", but the song itself was actually written by Jackson Browne.
