Last week inside the Galerie Courbe of the Grand Palais, FKA Twigs set the stage for the #ValentinoMenFW20 show by singing three songs from her latest album, “Magdalene.” #PierpaoloPiccioli #FKATwigs #Valentino
And better if she was headlining a small venue. I saw her at a festival and it was so packed that you couldn't breathe and the music was lost in amongst the crowd. And I walked past her in Hobart, Australia last year (?) when she performed for Dark Mofo festival, she's just as beautiful in person.
I saw her live in Sydney and I was in tears. The only way I can explain it is that she brought God into the room. I've never experienced anything quite like her. Also I'll never forget that when she sang the last line in "Cellophane", "I'm not enough" - the whole room was completely silent, and then someone at back yelled, "YOU ARE ENOUGH!!" and everyone erupted in cheering and screaming for her hahaha I was near the front and her and her dancers were smiling so much, really beautiful and genuine performance.
I have just seen on another video that they are actually using their phones to picture the models walking by wearing the Valentino.clothes. You cannot see from the angle in this video.
it’s insane that there’s barely any comments about this absolutely astonishing masterpiece of a performance.. fka twigs is an very talented and artistic musician, she creates such beautiful art. i hope she gets more recognition for all her hard work and efforts. fka twigs has a unique way of moving emotion through her music, there’s so much soulfulness you can feel in them. even the way she presents her music strikes you, her dancing and movement really emphasizes and gives this absolutely beautiful flow. i’m always put in awe, i can’t even imagine how it feels to see it live in person..
SHE IS A MASTER(piece)! Sometimes I'm just imagining, that she might be some kind of celestial/holy/angel-like being just trapped (or 'prisoned'...) in a human's body... THIS IS ART ! And I know, what I'm saying after watching all of her vids here on Y.tube! Can't be from this world or hemisphere! Her range and abilities are far, far above from what any words could ever describe!! (btw. Lady, when in the world do You start singing operas?)
i thank valentino everyday for this video and the lightings and the dress and everything but most importantly i thank my lord and savior, fka twigs for existing. i do not deserve.
The way she sings...her make of her voice to be heard, trembling details and breathing punctuations are so carefully crafted. It really puts me to focus in hearing and identify with those emotions...interesting and so intense!
I watch this video at least a few times a week. To avoid that frustration. I let it load, skip to almost the very end, let the commercials roll, let the video end, and then rewatch. Get them commercials outta the way before enjoying.
Never in my life have I had a performance give me goosebumps like that. There’s a real magic to her that once she starts singing you can’t look away. I couldn’t imagine how surreal it’d be to in the room during this performance
Everyone in the comments is forgetting that she is performing at a FASHION SHOW. Models are walking as she is singing. FKA is meant to be in the background. Yes she is singing amazingly but that is the purpose of it. If she was at an award show or her own show or at an art show than people would be focusing they're attention to her. Remember those are fashion industry people in the audience. One thing about FKA is that she puts her heart on her sleeves whenever she performances. You can feel her soul every time. A beautiful woman inside and out.
I am obsessed with this! I listen to it constantly. I've seen other live performances of Cellophane and Mary Magdalene, but this one is my favourite. 7:14 shivers down my spine. Huge applauses to the two ladies accompanying FKA Twigs.
This song and her performance is something so amazing. The emotions I felt. Totally mesmerized. It brought me to tears. Simply Beautiful. She is so gifted.
Yes this was a beautiful arrangement with the pianist & cellist. FKA Twigs is so amazing. I had no idea. Heard a commercial on TV and was like who is singing on this. They are amazing! Searched around with the little bit of lyrics and it was 2 weeks. I was so surprised it was so hard to find her song. She is fantastic, mesmerizing. I haven't seen anyone like her since Kate Bush. Kate is a British performer I believed. Princes you to have a thing for her big time. She is unique like FKA Twigs. I can't wait to listen to more if her music. Just had no idea this is her genre of music. Simply amazing.
She is always putting her heart on the stage and I couldn't control my tears when she sang the third song. FKA Twigs is more than a singer or an artist to me.
I imagine her being and HSP empathic and very neurotic about particularities, especially in creation. She astounds me and haunts me. I have to see her live.
If she added this performance in Spotify GUUURL I would’ve been listening to this astonishing masterpiece all the time, day and night. And actually I didn’t really like Magdalene, but her life version of Magdalene is so much more passionate and beautiful. I am literally in love.
At first I didnt like it too, then I think like "bro imagine years between BC and AD, jews, christians, wars without ending, chaos. And Twigs appears in the sky, I see her, hold her hand, she takes me away, out of this world". After that I realized that this album is fuckin unique, u cant replace it with any other, u can't even find a similar one. Thank God I share this planet with this Goddess...
i broke down crying when she sings 'They're hating, They're waiting. And hoping. I'm not enough' .. it shatters my empathetic heart that she actually felt this way. The sheer cruelty of those twitter keyboard warriors sending her nonstop hate, actually disturbs me. Karma has already wrecked havoc on their lives, of this i am certain. Twigs has risen like a phoenix from the ashes, stronger than ever
A woman of color dating one of the most fanboyed white men on earth was dangerous for her mental and physical health. I'm so happy for Fla twigs and the duchess of sussex because I see paralelles in the coordinated hate campaigns to make these women miserable for occupying a space people didnt expect them to. I'm so pleased that they've acquired happiness because now when I see hate about either of them it is the haters wrath at seeing them victorious.
I feel that this realy anoyed and hurt her, but seems too that she look for support in him, and didn't find enough, she was the one tryning. And this broke her, because if she staid, she would start beliving the voices
@@archivez101 how can you be sure it isn't? I'm not 100% sure it is exactly about that, but it would make sense if it was. and you aren't offering any factual evidence of what it is about, so shush
I love how her voice contains so much emotion its like she doesn't care if her voice isn't the strongest because she delivers the message with such raw emotion and delicacy
Oliver D. Bramhill it’s a fashion show bro, it’s business, people will be phoning / texting their bosses, management etc - fashion shows aren’t like theatre or music shows, the models and designers are selling their clothes and self to the audience who 80% will be there to scout out new clothes and models for their companies and bosses, theyre not being rude, they’re working.
I've listened to this three times tonight, I move on to different songs with different artists but keep coming back to this performance. Cellophane here is perfect - Gaia is singing to us. Her singing bares her soul. This is what goddesses sound like.
Did not know of FKA till today and looked her up - this young lady is as close to perfect as they get an artist, a voice, a soul - she's in the very beginning of her stardom - shine bright and for decades to come. There's unique authenticity in all of her! She's divine.
These are fashion critics they are taking notes. About what the models are wearing. So they can be the first to publish a article. And you can clearly see some are recording her.
This is the first time I'm hearing her. I'm blown away! I've only known who she was through tabloid news stories. Sobbing my eyes out. Her voice is angelic, yet powerful.
Her physical performance is just as incredible as her vocal. The way she moves is something out of a dream, she looks like an entity that once was human but no longer is. It’s kinda otherworldly
Just wanted to say that this performance has made me a forever fan of this truely amazing woman. Such a strong force. Hope to see her live sometime when all this chaos is over and done with.
People are on their phones because the fashion show was happening while she performed. They were taking pictures of the clothes. There's another video with the runway included. Amazing performance!! Goosebumps✨
This was a fucking masterpiece. She is ASTOUNDING. she deserved a standing ovation. She's literally incredible I can't even believe how breathtaking that performance was 🤍💭
If I was a model walking this show I would've gotten fired cause that "and didn't I do it for you" when her voice breaks and gets louder would have stopped me in my tracks and I would have just stood there and stared completely mesmerized
Her melody is like a music box with her as the statuesque in the middle that gets me mesmerized and tranced and i can stay like that for hours. This audience is a lucky bunch TvT for such an exotic performance aaahhhhh 7:20 me, burst into tears: what is this?! What kinda spell did she put? Aaahhhh ToT
I'm in awe. Her art, voice, beauty, that dress is just stunning, other worldly. By fluke I came across this performance and was transfixed. Its like opera on a whole other level. Perfection.
Her artistry is so powerful, she is a force to be reckoned with, Twigs is an artist flowing through time on a cloud. I love the way she sings with such deep artistic brilliance Twigs is so much more than she is given credit for, she is haunting in a good way I love to hear & watch her perform......
the AUDACITY for anyone to be on their phones during this once-in-a-lifetime EXPERIENCE!! literally angers me. This woman is the epitome of talent and pure art, and I would've given my first born to have witnessed this in-person.
altho i understand your feelings, its fashion week. the fashion people didnt came to see fka twigs, they came to see the collection. there is a possibility people didnt even knew fka twigs will perform during the presentation of the collection. in some cases yes, its a shallow thing to just sit there and dont give a f@ck about whats happening, but for others its work, so they have to use their phones.
