1st time hearing this and as usual it is soo good. Tori is a force. A talented wonderful artist that happens to be a beautiful woman. But it is her music that is communicating all the way to my soul.
I consider Tori to be a musical shaman. Her music literally heals. I’ve seen her live 5 times and it is truly amazing what she puts out into the world.
This and ''Upside Down'' are my two absolute favourite Tori songs and neither are on an album ! Just shows the depth of her body of work - mind blowing - and she is the ultimate performer in her stage presence which is entirely open, honest, ego free and a true gift to her fans. Oh, I almost forgot, she is quite easy on the eye.
I once knew a woman named Sara. She was the kindest, most loving and giving person I ever knew. She was a great singer-songwriter and pianist. She ran an open mic at a place called The Gallery in Chicago. We became fast friends and tho she was very beautiful, I refused to pursue any more than a friendship with her so as not to ruin our friendship. She was my sister. She LOVED Tori, as I did. She made me tapes of her b sides and albums to listen to on cross country trips that I loved to take. This was one of the songs. I was already a fan but I was so swept up by this particular number. She and I started working together on making a Tori demo to send to Tori, and get her approval for doing a tribute album. We joyfully worked on many songs including this one. I loved our project and so did she. Our friendship and partnership only grew. We both drank heavily. She seemed somewhat troubled by the events and relationships in her life but refused to discuss them. All I could do was stand by her and be her brother. Which I did. And she stood by me through my tough times when others fell away. She was still and always my sister. One day a friend called me to tell me I need to go see her. Right now. She was in hospice. I needed to see her right away. The guest list at the sign in sheet was pages and pages long. That's how many friends she had, come to say goodbye. One of them was me. We never finished the record, but I still have the demo. Alcohol took her from us but when I hear this song, she is as close to me as this keyboard. I love you forever Sara!! I'll always remember us playing and singing Tori songs together! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
She will always be my Goddess. I am 51, now. Tori got me through some excruciating times, in my Life. The first concert of hers I attended was at a sleepy bar in Orlando, FL. With Little Earthquakes. I could not get my BF to go (too macho), so I got his best friend, and my "big brother" to go. (trust me, he also had no interest). By the time "we" left Tori's concert, he was mesmerized. He thanked me for bringing, him.
Vers. Castellano: En mi cabeza te encontré allí | In my head I found you there Corriendo y siguiéndome | And running around and following me Pero no te atreves | But you don't dare Pero encuentro que ahora tengo más | But I find that I have, now, more De lo que nunca quise tener | Than I ever wanted to Así que tal vez Thomas Jefferson no nació | So maybe Thomas Jefferson wasn't born En tu patio trasero como has dicho | In your backyard like you have said and Y tal vez solo soy el horizonte al que corres cuando ella se ha ido | Maybe I'm just the horizon you run to when she has left Allí estás, aquí en mi cabeza | You there you are, here in my head and Corriendo y llamándome para que regrese | Running around, calling me "come back "...Te mostraré las rosas que se desprenden de la nieve | ...I'll show you the roses that brush off the snow and Y abren sus pétalos una y otra vez", y tú sabes que | Open their petals again and again" and you know that El helado verde manzana puede derretirse en tus manos, pero yo no puedo | Apple green ice cream can melt in your hands I can't so I Así que tomé tu mano en la feria | Held your hand at the fair and Y hasta olvidé qué hora era | Even forgot what time it was Y ni siquiera Thomas Jefferson nació | And even Thomas Jefferson wasn't born En tu patio trasero como has dicho | In your backyard like you have said and Y tal vez solo soy el horizonte al que corres | Maybe I'm just the horizon you run to Cuando ella te ha dejado y a mí aquí, solos en el suelo | When she has left you and me here alone on the floor Estás contando mis plumas mientras las campanas tañen | You're counting my feathers as the bells toll Lo ves el lazo y el cinturón y la chica del sur, todos | You see the bow and belt and the girl from the south all Mis favoritos, lo sabes muy bien | Favorites of mine you know then all well Y la primavera trae pequeños charcos frescos que lo aclaran todo, lo aclaran todo | And spring brings fresh little puddles that makes it all clear makes it all ¿Sabes lo que esto me está haciendo | Do you know what this is doing to me Aquí en mi cabeza? | Here in my head?
I love her. I'm sat here looking at this VHS tape i bought in 1992, little earthquakes. Trying to figure out what to do with it. I see it was never released on DVD! I think i should have this converted, as i contains interview footage, between the tracks. She was so unreasonably beautiful! Burnt my 16 yr old head out. lol
OMG!I'm so lost of air to breathe after taking that in 5x's in a row.I saw this. I saw her @ this point in her career. The same set up. All that I've ever needed was her, her raw piano & powerful voice, emotion, & story telling!I have followed her every tour to this day. A stage set afire from the talent oozing from every spark her movements created & every exhale her lungs pushed out! I'm not sure where this was. I saw her in Kalamazoo, Michigan about 3 months before "silent all these years" made its first splash on MTV & the world first saw tori. I was so very lucky to have witnessed her @ this point.I was about 30 feet away.I had no idea who she was. My friend worked @ the venue. I went @ the last minute & my life changed forever.Thank you,Tori!!!
Do you have a full recording of this show? I think it's from 1991 (1992 at the latest) when she was still using whatever piano was available at the venue.
