HOLY FUCK! I've never seen this performance and now that I've just did I have tears in my eyes... I couldn't care less of those models when there is that MIRACLE and her piano right there. She played and sang PERFECTLY (it's really absurd that some people think she wasn't that better in her 2005 performances) without stopping for 16 minutes, she's IMMENSE.
@@CygnusRoc I know but usually in prog rock songs there is much space also for instrumental only parts, here instead she basically sings and plays alone non-stop for a whole lot of time! :')
@@raisingirl88 Yes that’s true, I just meant as far as performing a long piece of music. But a lot of this one has repeated sections too. Of course at the same time there’s a fair amount of variance in the lyrics so that would be tough to remember seamlessly. But then she is a professional musician with a lot of experience.
I had no idea this was a fashion show thing...initially thought some strange woman was walking onto the stage then saw the giant pillow around her head as she posed and it all made sense lol...peculiar combination but she performed beautifully as usual.
Maybe Bjork in one of her wild outfits singing at a fashion show but not Tori. That's the wrong performer for the vibe of such a- it's all about what we look like- kind of a shindig.
This might be the furthest out in time, i.e. 2005 (not sure what month), that I've seen a video of Tori BEFORE the plastic surgery. It's always interested me to see how she looked before getting 'work' done, and then AFTER. There was a period very shortly after this time, where you didn't see any of her, she stayed away from attention (videos/pictures), and then the American Doll Posse album came out with several 'characters,' and it was obvious the 'work' had been done. Not hating on her for that; it's just really cool to see what may be the LAST video of her before she got the work done. Thanks for posting the video!!
Once beekeeper came out, she always looked surprised. Ive wondered if she was unhappy with the result and is using the glasses to camouflage a lift gone wrong. As such a feirce torch carrier for women everywhere, it saddens me she was so unhappy with her appearance and aging. She is such a glorious and radiant being, I wish everyone's love were enough to drown out and fill whatever motivates the need in her to do this. It is weirdly distracting, and unfortunately becoming more so.
I have loved Tori from the beginning. She is an original genius. That said, why do women's clothes get to be art while men's clothes are slight variations on the same old tired fashions? Not fair.
its 2014 now, and I think those clothes look pretty cool, now I must admit walking around with a pillow in my hair might be a tad bit out there...but stranger things have happened :) what a treat!!!! THANK YOU for sharing this!!
I think it’s amazing to see these unique projects. Artists being creative and collaborating- Tori is a story teller. Designer is also creating characters. Wonderful to see these art forms combined. So many ppl complaining about the fashion portion while Tori performs. Didn’t realize so many Tori fans are highly pretentious!! I adore Tori’s work.. she was very influential and helped me in a spiritual way..as a conduit for myself. So I truly do have deep respect for her contributions. BUT I’m surprised to see people that love Tori’s creativity… try and shit on another artists expression, such as models and fashion. As if that’s a lesser art form and stupid. Again. Pretentious! Being creative is all about experimenting, collaborating, AND ALSO NOT TAKING EVERYTHING SO SERIOUSLY. LET PEOPLE HAVE FUN AND EXPLORE. It’s rather enjoyable. ❤
I adore Tori with my soul but it took many years for me to finally watch through this, because I really despise this fashion show crap... Wish it was a DVD, and I could choose the Tori camera ONLY. You're God, woman! =´)
I have been waiting for this for so long. I even sent some emails back in the day to the webmaster on Viktor and Rolf's site because the video in their archive was incomplete. This is such a great surprise. Absolutely Beautiful.
GGGRRRR my laptop died about 3 minutes before the end!! I was so caught up in Tori and her performance here that I didn't even think when it made the little ding noise that my battery was going dead and the little screen popped up in the corner lmao pfffffttt this is one of the best performances I have seen, and believe me its HARD to pick just one, but this BLOWS ME AWAY!!!!
That lukewarm welcome 🤌 Shame on them!! When in the presence of talent you stand up and appreciate 🤷🏽♂️ Tori is just on another level!! Nothing compares ❤❤
with Tori singing, especially this song.... i just dont know how anyone expected anyone to even be able to pay attention to anything else... how could the designers think people could pay attention to the 'fashion show'?? the models seem almost absurd...
Unfortunately the models walking around her bring forth bad memories of dancers getting in the way of the guest performer on Strictly Come Dancing, if not the fashion parade on Knowing Me Knowing You where Rebecca Front portrayed Yvonne Boyd, the fashion designer.
OH WOW this is REALLY cool!!! these models really got a treat to be able to be a part of this!! this is so different and catching...I cant keep my eyes off Tori though..she is just magical
you're right. in theory. in reality though I bet they didnt even care about her and now they probably dont even recall this performance/event/day. drugs are bad mmmkay
until the war is gone I sleep but My heart waketh but do You have one? I said do You have one? do You have one now? do You have this thing inside Your bones? do You have it or is it too old? do You have one of those do You have one of those? You sit, A part
omfg! I'd never seen the full performance, I'd only seen the shortened version with the interviews of the models and the designers. this was such an awesome performance!! Thanks for uploading!
well, fashion is fashion and is definitely in the eye of the beholder. i personally agree but i dont really presume to much about "fashion"... i do agree she looks and radiates absolute gorgeousness.
and NOT trying to spam comments here (sorry) but I just realized that 8 well, I shouldn't consider them people gave this a thumbs down?!?!?! wtf are these beings blind, deaf, and dumb?? I mean even if you don't care for her music (which I cant believe,but have met lots of guys who claim they don't smh) but the tone, and quality and pitch of this is just...just..just... hell magical..it gives me goose bumps how in harmony her voice and the sound and tone of the piano is here, its AMAZING!! WHO ARE THESE THUMBS DOWN PEOPLE?!?!?
let them choose, i agree with u but as we all know there is the hunter and the hunted,life would not be life without it.don't get me wrong tori makes me a babbling brook when i see her live.but if she was 4 everyone would it still be as special.got my tickets 4 this year in my bedside table.
what makes her even better is that she got to the top on her own. she wasn't supported by anyone but her fans. all reviews were crap and making fun of her. so you are right she is magical because she still writes music and is working on a musical.

***** Quit being such a fanboy. I love Tori and even named my daughter "Tori." Myrtle Snow is fabulous. Tori has a sense of humor about herself. Take a chill pill, money grip.
GuysCallMeShawna I think we all know the answer to that one. :) I have only heard the version of this off the Piano Collection. I'm digging slight change in lyrics.
*she is no goddess you blind man. She's a snake and a satanic harlot. She worships lucifer, and she knows she's evil. She's going in the lake of fire. RIGHT WHERE SHE DESERVES TO BE.*
Can you play one song for approximately 20 minutes? Tori: Absolutely! Also, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE PILLOWS. The first girl that came out made me lmao for quite a while lol.
my boyfriend and his mum are talking about me and what kind of girl I am....lol I honestly still dont care to hear what they are saying i'm not correcting them either. i would rather listen to my heart sleep but my heart wake up
Love me some tori amos but this made me laugh some of those models! What's with the big pillows? Did people actually go and wear that stuff after seeing this show? "Oh i gotta buy and wear that." Guess they have a convenient way of taking a nap after the show! Lol!
Nathan Treolo gurrlll i was gonna say if i was tori i woudnt be able to continue playing after the firts model came out with that funny pillow, a mess id b cackling
Life is cruel .y puppy she lives me. She golden heart. But i need my mithers live ot the nine existing equivalent soy beloved puppy mau soon be. A rescie. Kniw she was loved and raise dwith kindness. Please neep as us. Be kind yo my baby
I AGREE THE "MODELS " WERE A DISTRACTION I COULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT, LIKE SO MUCH "HI FASHION "IT DOES NOTHING TO ENHANCE THE FEMALE FORM TORIS ATTIRE WAS MUCH MORE BECOMING AND PRETTY THEN THE USUAL HI FASHION FREAK SHOW. I KNOW ITS BEEN SAID COUNTLESS TIMES BEFORE. I FIND THE SAME QUALITY IN TORI'S MUSIC AS I DO KATE BUSH'S FOR WHICH I AM THANKFUL!
Is there s significance to this being played at what appears to be a fashion show? Kind of odd getups if it is an actual fashion show. The lyrics don’t seem to have much to do with it, unless it’s meant to pair sublimity with superficiality.
Though I have always loved and admired Tori Amos I am really quite surprised she took part in something like this. I mean she is all about women empowerment yet there is nothing more distorting of the female like fashion (not all) but a huge part of it. This is a good example of it, unhealthy underweight male and female models sending out a sick twisted message of what is beautiful, a message that we all know costs many lives among young people, specially girls. I think Tori should know better, I used to think she was smart, I am starting to doubt.
gustopheles This gotta be the emptiest most stupid comment ever. Please, don't make a fool of yourself, first of you do not know me, therefore calling me this or that is completely idiotic and only shows your intelectual level. If there is something that shows stupidity and ignorance as treats is stereotaping, specially people you don't know.
daniel chalabi I'm not really clear on whether you're more insulted about being called gay or corny, but how ironic is it that you're leaving these vapid comments trying to assert Tori's complicity in, what, misogyny? patriarchy? based on her providing a soundtrack for a fashion show. It's a job she took on. How is the work she did for Atlantic or Sony, who are also violently misogynous record companies, any more about "women empowerment" than playing piano for Viktor and Rolf. What the fuck do you even identify "women empowerment" as, like you sound so corny it's insane.
