Holy gods above and below, what a musical genius she is. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up when the piano section kicked in. She could do a whole album with just one take...
Obsessed with the bridge, with this entire video. She's such a force of emotion. Tumultuous times here and her genius allowed that to escape in the music as therapy and a gift for us. She brings top-notch soul like no other.
Since I found out Tori, the other female singers doesn't seem to me singer anymore, or incomplete in some ways... I always liked Alanis, Dolores... But Tori is absolutely on another planet! She's really a GODDESS.
This is the song that made me fall in love with Tori. No matter how many amazing songs/albums she creates for us to fall in love with, this one will always hold a very special place in my heart because it was my first love. This song opened my eyes and ears to music and is the reason I write music today. Thanks for sharing this video!
There is NO DIFFERENCE in her voice/tempo from the album to this performance. Wow. There's so many nuances to notice here...she could play this in her sleep. At the very least Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...but she may need a new category all her own.
This is farrr too amazing...! I can't wait till she gets Kennedy Center Honors and hopefully I'm alive to see it, just to see WHO sings these amazing songs in tribute....
she's tori amos, one of most talented singer/songwriter/pianist on earth...imho!^^ This song is an half accappella version of a single from her amazing album "boys from pele", I warmly advise her first four album: little earthquakes, under the pink, the yet mentionet boys for pele, and from the choirgirl hotel...you'll never regret it, she'll speak to your soul, to pieces of you you can't even know you have...I love her! ^^
HUGE..that's the meaning of the word artist..i never managed to do two things together when i listen to tori..just stand there and listen to her..speechless..like a prayer..
WOW...sings half the song a capella while drumming on the piano (who else does that?), and then - BAM, voice and piano at the same time, right on pitch. Freakin' incredible. Her genius amazes me.
That was pure fucking artistry! Most impressive! What a wonderful treat to hear one of my favourite songs caught thought the artists interpretation. THANKS FOR POSTING THIS Hereinmyhead102. I mean that from my heart.........
I come back. I see comments from 10 hours ago. It's 2022. This makes me very happy. If there were more Tori fans around the world would be a better place
Tori Amos is one of thegreatest live performers that have ever existed. I can't say I'm a big fan of her, even though I really like her, but I can assure you she's the most passionate performer I've seen. Me and my gun moved me to tears on TV, hahaha!
What's truly brilliant about this is how is shows the raw, sheer, naked talent of the artist... no fancy video, no lip-synching.... this is the creative process laid so intensely bare. It's almost hard to watch; I feel like I'm being a voyeur. Gawd, just amazing. Thanks Tori for sharing this with everyone...
I'm so thankful to have seen/heard this performance. It's two versions of the same song fused together as perfectly as only Tori could do it. I love her so much, but it sometimes slips my mind for a short time only to be dramatically reminded by such magnificent displays of artistry. Oh, and BIG THANKS to HEREINMYHEAD for the post! That was great!
Caught a light sneeze Caught a light breeze Caught a lightweight lightning seed Boys on my left side Boys on my right side Boys in the middle And you're not here Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo Doo, doo I need a big loan from the girl zone Building, tumbling down Didn't know our love was so small Couldn't stand at all Mr. St. John, Just bring your son The spire is hot and my cells can't feed And you still got that Belle Dragging your foots, yes I'm hiding it well Sister Ernestine But I still got that Belle dragging my foots, yes Building, tumbling down Didn't know our love was so small Couldn't stand at all Mr. St. John, Just bring your son Right on time You get closer and closer Called my name but there's no way in use that fame Rent your wife and kids today, yeah maybe she will I said a maybe she will Caught a light sneeze Dreamed a little dream Made my own pretty hate machine Boys on my left side Boys on my right side Boys in the middle and you're not here Boys in their dresses and you're not here I need a big loan from the girl zone I need big loan from a girl zone Building, tumbling down Didn't know our love was so small Couldn't stand at all Mr. St. John, Just bring your son
Brilliant! It's wonderful to see the artistic process. This was raw and pure, which just keeps in sync with her music. This was an absolute joy to watch!
