i don't know anything about the political (or not) background of the music and the lyrics, but this is JUST AMAZING.

And when Matt tries to get on the show..... it gets even better.❤

I like her 👍

LAURIE ANDERSON IS LOW VIBRATIONAL, SOULLESS BORN CLONE/ ANDROID . SHE IS AN EMPTY VESSEL ( SHE DOESN'T HAVE SOUL). ONLY THROUGH OUR SOULS WE HAVE CONNECTION TO GOD'S SOURCE. ONLY SOULS CAN AWAKEN. HERE'S MORE.... LAURIE ANDERSON IS CRIMINAL, CORRUPTED, CABAL PUPPET PEDOPHILE, EPSTEIN ISLAND VISITIOR, SATAN WORSHIPER, CHILDREN TORTURER, ADRENOCHROME CONSUMING CRIMINAL CORRUPTED CABAL PUPPET PEDOPHILE. SHE BELONGS IN PRISON FOR TREASON, CORRUPTION, AND PEDOPHILIA. THE REASON SHE IS SO UPSET....TRUMP WILL RELEASE EPSTEIN ISLAND VISITIORS LIST AND LAURIE IS ON THE LIST....IT'S A PART OF DISCLOSURE .

You are the reward we viewers get from all your hard work ❤😅Thank you to the moon and back ❤️⭐️❤️

I hope Jimmy 's always there. Hes one of the few people who can make me laugh and he keeps me sane!

Bravo!

Feeling connected to something past my circumstances. The way Laurie Anderson shares past and present is revealing and artistic.

A "man" is a funny term

YE SHE WOULD DO GOOD AS ELLE WPPOODS AND ALSO AND LEGALLY BLOOOOONDE

I guess we all just found out that we are the Barbarians, because we need them.

Minority opinion (tiny minority, I guess): I liked the first half, loved it in fact. Didn't like the ending of Barbarians ("Unless we ourselves are the barbarians" NOT IN THE POEM and subverts the meaning of the poem - and hated what she did to Ithaca.

I have played this at least once a day since I first came upon it. It's mesmerizingly beautiful.

Bjork and Laurie Anderson, two generations DOIN IT! Thanks for this!!

That’s a great piece.

Stay out of politics and stick to comedy. I used to watch your show all the time but no more. You're way too political on both sides. Johnny Carson would roll over in his grave, watching you do your show

She has a Judy garland vibe to her.

"We have seen the enemy‚ and he is us." - POGO

You have been spu n communism for a lot of years.And now you want to play like you don't do anything wrong

Nothing short of timely. Bravo, Laurie Anderson!

Love her. Younger is one of my favorite shows ever.

WTF?

They would be labeled as Woke Fake News today.

Thanks for sharing, 👏👏👏

Wow! I wish I could have been there! Such fun it looks like!

this sounds like a conversation between my dad and i

I've been reading the poetry of C P Cavafy for the last 40 years.... it's my go-to for transatlantic flights! Now this is the apex of pleasure ❤ 🎉yo!

The barbarians have arrived. They're called MAGA.

The Barbarians is the single most destructive piece of poetry ever written! The belief that there are no more Barbarians"(quote the ending) Paved the way for the Woke movement and the defunding of police, the illusion of humanism and the lessening of law. "If you are merciful toward the cruel, you"ll be cruel to the merciful' ... The Cartels Nd the Palestinian terrorists are two groups that hugely benefit from these illusions.

Pretty awesome, but she's no William Shatner.

Wow. This is a keeper, to be absorbed many times over.

Love it, great work Marlena ❤❤❤

It's great to see The Knights, conducted by Eric Jacobsen, as part of another exciting musical collaboration, this time with the great Laurie Anderson. They are always exploring new and old music in ways that make them a New York treasure. .

I first witnessed Laurie back in the 1970s at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. How wonderful to continue hearing her fifty years later, still blowing our minds. A consummate artistic genius!

Amazingly talented woman!!!❤❤❤

Absolutely incredible. I can't believe this does not have a million views, and I surely hope it soon does

Nothing but a Homewrecker!

Wow! 🥹

brilliant

Thank you so much for this performance, catching at just the right moment. I had forgotten the conjugal relationship between music and Dharma. I heard both. For the benefit of all.

Legend

Love her!!

He was her fiancé of 5 years right?

Early 80's, Laurie Anderson - O Superman, after all these years still a fierce talent. What a lovely find.

The barbarians are here... they have 800 bases around the world!

Our lady is going for tony #7 this Broadway aeason
