Andrew Bird Performs 'Left Handed Kisses' with Fiona Apple

Musical artist Andrew Bird was joined by special guest Fiona Apple for this passionate performance.

[@turquoiself]

I love how Fiona's voice is full of anger, its so raw

[@DeepThinkingGPU]

live performance seems better than the video

[@ericpaulson7151]

i hear frustration and a challenge to whomever she is singing, not simple anger but a desire for someone to change.

[@redbird7055]

You hesitate you will hear the click of the receiver!

[@Prism_ism]

SO angry, yes! They also struck me as emotionally in sync and like they were performing for each other as much as they were for the audience. Fiona's timing is impeccable, as well, and her energy at the end was, as always, completely endearing. 💓

[@RomonicaDiGregory]

Oh my god. Fiona went from the EPITOME of "Hell hath no fury" to being an adorable jumping bean at the end. That is how you switch on for a performance.

[@NovemberMoonXx]

that's how she's always been :)

[@BoDash]

Fiona's transition from intensely passionate singing to full-on goofy immediately afterward makes my heart go all flippity flop. I love her so much!

[@BobRenoir]

Great to see Fiona !!! Please, return SOON with a new album! Kisses from Serbia!

[@BobRenoir]

[@ethanklimczak5692]

A ja egocentrik sam mislila da sam jedina Srpkinja koja voli Fionu

[@jenicdarling9690]

BobRenoir omg I would LOVE a new album. Her lyrics hit me so hard u know? like "close to home" is the saying I think. love her!

[@israelalvarez4884]

BobRenoir i send kisses to you from Mexico

[@dumbbxxch5373]

Omg another hispanic(I’m assuming by your name)who likes Fiona Apple? Hey! 👋

[@NoodlesVanPflock]

Fiona still is and will be one of the greatest singers I have ever listened to. Oh, and by the way, and not only by the way, one of the greatest songwriters. Fiona, I love you and always will!! Greetings from germany.

[@gallethog]

Best songwriter indeed. Greetings from a Mexican stranded in Munich 🙌

[@yves78]

Andrew Bird tho. Everything he touches is gold.

[@moleratical1232]

The way Fiona apple instantly goes from seething fury to pure budding joy the instant the song ends makes me all misty-eyed.

[@CedarwoodFair]

I'd never heard of either of these artists before now but this performance is quite striking! That Apple has a most disconcertingly wonderful demeanour, too.

[@rachelcharakho]

Haven't heard of him either but Fiona's paper bag is one of my favourite songs

[@syntheticsilkwood2206]

Fiona apple is one of tge greatest artists ever Listen to her album when the pawn... or the idler wheel...

[@brunofernandes3298]

Every single song sang by this gorgeaous woman is just so amazing

[@Tandarok]

So great to watch Fiona perform again! :D

[@fredericohartmann8882]

+Kons Tanda she's been perfoming with the Watkins Family Hour

[@pleiades_nuts]

She has the most genuine smile ive ever seen. She smiles like that at the end of almost every live performance and it makes my heart melt. I love her so much.

[@alyaa1308]

was here for fiona but damn this is such an amazing performance

[@ronaldbibi209]

hey Fionna, we need your new album

[@Cristal_811]

Glad to see one of my favorite people, Andrew Bird, getting more recognition :-)

[@MS-sj7zx]

After being discharged from a psychiatric hospital, I was in the waiting room with my father and there was a TV in the corner of the room. Ellen was on in the background, and as soon as this was brought up on TV, I had the goofiest smile on my face and just wanted to scream from excitement. I was almost in tears, and I am sure I looked like the stupidest idiot in the waiting room. This was honestly the best surprise after a heck of a lot of shit that was going on. Cheers to Andrew and Fiona - they make an awesome duet!

[@jtarantula3390]

I hope you’re ok, or much better

[@goommmyy5228]

cheers to you fella hope youre doing well, too

[@MS-sj7zx]

I'm happy to say that I'm doing much better, thank you!

[@zasddsaf]

hell yes! what a duet

[@lucas-ob2up]

I screamed when I saw Fiona

[@skate07senses]

Holy f**k, I can't believe this.. I've been listening to Fiona for quite some years now and I adore her. Haven't heard much from her lately and knowing her struggles in the past, it's made me genuinely concerned about her well-being, so I would Google her every now and then to check up on her. That's how I found this live performance now and for it to be with my newest, most adored discovery, Andrew Bird!! IS THIS REAL LIFE?! Had no idea they know each other, this is such a pleasant surprise! ^^ Can't tell you how happy I am to see Fiona looking so healthy and beautiful, and to see these awesome minds perform together! :)

[@doekebekius1271]

They might know each other through another favorite of mine Blake Mills. He produced this album and worked alot with Fiona in the past. If you didn't knew him, you should check him out!!

[@andy0717]

i know this is a year old comment, but someone close to her posts updates and pictures of her on a tumblr blog called fionaapplerocks, and the instagram fionaappleig does it as well

[@isaalva]

I love that Andrew Bird is getting more recognition... I just hope society and the music industry doesn't ruin his unique sound.

[@imaginarygoblin]

Who's still playing this a year later? Seriously the best performance ever on The Ellen Show. Fiona forever!

[@NickiiRose]

I'm here for Fiona!

[@thefelicits]

+NickiiR I think everyone is. This guy seems interesting and talented but I would never have heard of him if he hadn't teamed up with Fiona.

[@eddieborkstrom]

She is wonderful, but I came for Mr. Bird!

[@femafull]

+NickiiR Me too♥♥ But they sound amazing together

[@Amins88]

thefelicits Interesting, I learned of Fiona through Andrew. But they work so well together! She has such a powerful voice.

[@kerraldineholland2113]

aaah Fiona, still singing the passion of my heart

[@perspireandinspire]

FIONA APPLE!!!! I still listen to her first 2 albums. I've been listening to them for half my life!

[@Saracramenta]

I MISS FIONA SO MUCH I'm so glad she looks good and healthier than back when the idler wheel was just released its so good seeing her happy

[@vivekchavanmusic]

He plays violin like he's playing guitar. wow

[@whizzardblizzard5696]

+Vivek Chavan Welll shit, didnt notice that. WOw!

[@viachicago]

That's called pizzicato. He plays pizzicato style and with a bow.

[@manus21]

[@robertadrian4267]

Truly one of the best tv performances in recent years.

[@curajacaster]

I didn't know about Andrew Bird until hearing this song (I'm already a huge Fiona fan) but I'm really loving the passion he seems to put into his music. He might become my new music obsession :)

[@tibbyjoys]

Andrew Bird is amazing and has put out many great albums. all different and genius.

[@vishydelaire]

Fiona looks better than ever and sounds just as amazing as ever

[@kunkisbaby]

They are a pleonasm for my soul linguistics... They've been in the prettiest moments in my life (certainly in melancholics too). This is beautiful.

[@mitulpatel6393]

Phenomenal performance - Fiona really is an extraordinary machine.

[@cc22ful]

Why so many dislikes? This is awesome.

[@dvepps6780]

thirteen vs 800+ as of 3/16 I'd say that's a damned fine ratio

[@ronisize15]

Some people don't know what real music sounds like

[@trysometruth]

@@ronisize15 three years later it's 81 vs three thousand five hundred+

[@cheesecarrots]

I love both of these guys! So happy they made a song together!!!

[@Elifpoy]

[@kevin104z]

Fiona looks great..can't wait for some new music...

[@JP-lh5py]

I don't like seeing Fiona share the stage with anyone but I'll let this one slide. Awesome to see her on mainstream TV nowadays. Nice performance from Bird too.
