KT Tunstall - Suddenly I See (The Quay Sessions)

[@bobimaria]

i'm not even into this kind of music, but oh god, THIS is a live performer, the whole show is exclusively on her back and she carries it like it's NOTHING, recording loops, chatting, calling people to sing along... i love this woman, we need more people like this in the world

[@rosaria1056]

Totally agree with you

[@atenachos6282]

Guess what, you're into this music.

[@armandbourque2468]

Sexy af, too.

[@ElliSnow-bg2jb]

There are a lot of them out there, driving around in a beat up station wagon or mini-van, playing small venues or busking in every town they come to. You just have to look for them.

[@NoferTrunions]

I think KT is one of the most under appreciated out there.

[@techmanfriendscrafter7767]

She’s awesome

[@CaSh-H]

So underrated she is so so talented

[@rich-rp4ep]

One of the best live acts I’ve seen! She’s so talented!

[@johndibdin]

She’s superb

[@stefanhamilton8713]

Hugely talented woman, and kudos to her for playing in that old people’s home.

Nailed it!

[@rabbbie99]

She used to do open mic nights as a teenager in some bars in my village in Scotland. Who knew when we were sitting drinking pints we were being entertained by a future superstar.

[@chelseykate14]

That has to be the best live performance of that song I’ve seen and this crowd didn’t deserve it.

[@lucasxavier3564]

And yet she tried hard to engage them ....

[@mplsgordon2]

Watching this I remember buying tickets to see The Nolans for a British family I was friends with. Hammersmith Odeon, a large old style theater. The girls are up there singing their best and the crowd politely applauded from their seats. First, I stood up and made my friends stand up also. Singing along, clapping, and of course the people behind us had to stand as well to see. I led the family down the aisle, up to the front and into the orchestra pit. And the Nolans are laughing and pointing to us. It took a while, but people joined us and we had great fun for the last half of the show. Close to the end Bernie pointed to me and said, "Could you follow us the rest of the tour? We'd find tickets for you." I smiled back and blew her a kiss which she returned. I mean, K.T. didn't sing a song. She put on a great show, and the crowd were like the one back in 1982.

[@pagefire2]

Check out Melanie from 50 years ago

[@codswallop321]

Outstanding performance. The audience... no comment

[@arthurazs]

You read my mind. One of her best performances ever, I wish I was there

[@cpt.taselbymc8400]

My younger sister would listen to KT Tunstall on repeat. It makes it hard to come back to these songs nearly 4 years after she died.

[@joshilayz]

Damn! That must be heartbreaking. But ur sister lives through these songs! May her soul rest in peace!

[@deckearns]

I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope you are ok.

[@MZ-mu6om]

R.I.P to your sister, bless your heart my friend ❤

[@videographiya]

She's definitely breaking sweat to wake up this dead audience. Amazing artist!

[@leethrelfalllt]

😂😂😂

[@lydiafetterly8987]

It's not working on the 😠 guy at 4:57 😢

[@calebbhawkins]

I kinda feel like in the states people would have just talked over her. I think these people were trying to listen.

[@kes136]

Many of them are elderly and have many health issues or are neglected by their families so maybe Katy tried to cheer them up, though we don't know what each person in the audience is going through.

[@phillipesuper]

Her face is a map of the world Is a map of the world You can see, she's a beautiful girl She's a beautiful girl And everything around her is a silver pool of light The people who surround her feel the benefit of it It makes you calm She holds you captivated in her palm Suddenly I see (suddenly I see) This is what I wanna be Suddenly I see (suddenly I see) Why the hell it means so much to me? (suddenly I see) This is what I wanna be Suddenly I see (suddenly I see) Why the hell it means so much to me? I feel like walking the world Like walking the world You can hear she's a beautiful girl She's a beautiful girl She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember What you heard She likes to leave you hanging on a word Suddenly I see (suddenly I see) This is what I wanna be Suddenly I see (suddenly I see) Why the hell it means so much to me? (suddenly I see) This is what I wanna be Suddenly I see (suddenly I see) Why the hell it means so much to me? And she's taller than most And she's looking at me I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine She makes me feel like I could be a tower A big strong tower, yeah The power to be The power to give The power to see Yea yea (Suddenly I see) She got the power to be The power to give The power to see Yea yea (Suddenly I see) She got the power to be The power to give The power to see Yea yea yea (Suddenly I see) She got the power to be The power to give The power to see Yea yea (Suddenly I see

Love her energy, true artist.

[@wolfgang6442]

Yeah she's one of a kind

[@Itslikethis-un3ki]

Same. That bounce. ❤

[@sschmidtevalue]

Now THAT's talent. No need for autotune, unlike some "artists" that are around. And she can sing, play, and manage the loop pedals all at the same time.

[@tlenkeeb829]

Ed Sheeran gets credit for this type of performance and fills stadiums around the world and breaks records . This woman was doin it years before and writes better songs and can sing better. Fuckin brilliant and an underrated live artist.

[@love-vy1ry]

@@tlenkeeb829 ED.....Who?????? Never heard off.

[@Nova-fh2et]

You have a severe misunderstanding of autotune

[@everythingin.401]

KT Tunstall and this song were what this world needed. So glad she exists

[@Orion3T]

Hear this song and the Horse one so many times, never realised they were all done in a single take with loops and she could do them just the same live. Genius.

[@RhymesWithDonna38]

The album versions were done with a full band, but she had already locked in how to do them one shot. Apparently the rhythm when expanded to a full band sounded really manufactured until the producer finally took the drummer aside and told them to watch KT's right hand. Her rhythm style is so percussive that the drummer had to follow HER, not the other way around 😅

[@meikelwortmann7264]

Real Musicians play real Instruments and make real Music. Beautifully done! Love it.

[@ronmorey3475]

What an absolute pro performer. She worked her ass off to get that sleepy audience to give her all of whatever energy they could muster. Her enthusiasm was infectious and bulletproof.

[@MummaMia5]

OMG, wft! 10/10 to KT for keeping up the enthusiasm during this amazing performance. This audience look like their pacemaker‘s are about to take their last beat. Kill me before I get that lifeless !!!!!

[@DorianStretton]

Fantastic performance by KT Tunstall

[@jhm5407]

I really love her guitar sound!! I love it so much!!

[@KITLEVEY]

Another worthy performance - this time done uphill into an audience of sand. She always nails it no matter the circumstances.

[@CarlosSanchez-ms7zu]

Theres something about the way she performs is electric and just beautiful❤

She's amazing, true performer and artist. And most "importantly" she's having fun. 🙂

[@normr4935]

I just love KT, she is GREAT ! Certainly knows how to get her audience out of their comfort zone.

[@orion8835]

So enchanted by everything this artist does. The style, flow, singing, delivery and composition of ALL her songs are excellent. Tut stall is so very much the top tier of this genre.

[@mrs1975brown]

I’m in the US and had to look her up after seeing her on long lost family meeting her lovely sister ❤ ! Very nice and I have heard this song in the US ! Happy for KT ( season 9 episode 3 of long lost family) great episode

[@ike2112]

Playing an instrument with your foot whilst playing the guitar and singing over the top of 8 samples of your own live performance from 60 seconds ago... Has to be about the most boss thing I've ever seen in music.

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

WOW! Simply fantastic! What an incredibly talented amazing power package this little "Diva" is.

[@NoferTrunions]

There are just so many "juicy bits" to the melody of this song - it's intoxicating to sing. It's spiritual, uplifting and transcendental - and that's just the music, not the lyrics. Amazing...

[@polarbear3427]

A huge talent she is.

[@hannalemusic]

KR Tunstall is straight fire! Absolutely incredible and such an inspiration ❤️

[@lmamakos]

I love seeing these live performances, so raw and unfiltered. It must be hard for an artist doing a live performance and not getting much of anything back from the audience. Some of these audience members seem to be there against their will? WTF?

[@jean-francoisgodard1673]

What an energy ... how to stay sit on a chair with a beautiful, talented girl given all the hearth she's got ....'she's need their help' ... THEY need her to become alive ... her flame without enough fame, could enlight their soul ...

[@clairetheroux4729]

I love this song and I love her music. So enthusiastic and inspiring. She looks confident and glowing with the power of creativity.

[@Repomidnight]

Makes KT even more awesome. Unresponsive audience, but just goes ahead and attacks the guitar and gives a phenomenal performance. She makes it look so easy. Criminally underrated.

Astonishing talent. From my perspective the audience appears much more mesmerized than the crude comment that they appear lifeless. More taken aback by her sheer talent. Hardly a dance hall rendition. "Peace Love and Happiness" Jimi Hendrix 1967

[@missthreet]

it's great to hear this song again and by KT Tunstall herself XD my favorite song from devil wears prada XD

[@jillianwelchmusic]

She deserved so much more from the audience. That was a fantastic performance and they didn't give reciprocate that to her.

[@embojembod5795]

Aww seen kt 5 times brilliant! X

[@pharoahegypt]

Clearly not an audience specifically there to see KT; which was a shame, as she rocked this song with real conviction. Wasted on them......

[@nmo888]

Fabulous performance by KT 👍

[@davidmg1925]

why must people "rock" things now

[@mpseeker]

hey no musician can make all the audience rock, you know.

[@josephfuller5849]

G-Noh Park, any one musician CAN rock the whole audience, unless of course it's funeral music.

[@jip2971]

I think you're stern with the audience, when I go to a concert of an artist that I appreciate I do not need to scream and whistle, besides the people who scream and whistle as if they had seen Christ when the artist came on stage annoy me a lot

[@anneominous7172]

Hell of a woman. Christ, as huge as she was for (quite) a while there, she really never got the recognition she deserved. Heal Over is among the most technically brilliant songs ever written.

It has been a hell of a long time since I have seen her play live but she is such an exceptional musician. Not one ounce of pretentiousness about her and she knows how to work a crowd for sure. Who could resist when one woman was responsible for creating a live, layered performance.

[@joshyfowler1997]

Of course she's not pretentious. She's Scottish! They are the least pretentious people along with Aussies. They will drag you back down to reality if you get too big for your boots. But yeah, amazing musician whatever she does
