Beth Orton: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

[@joeverastegui8399]

I can't understand the ones the BIG audience choose to make a star, the talentless and regurgitated keep getting all the fame when real , amazing and deeply talented artist such as Beth just get overlooked. If this world had any taste at all or common sense Beth Orton would be a household name in every country on earth. I for one Love you Beth. Thank you for everything you've given the world.

[@JoaquimParis]

thats exactly why talents like her is so valuable.

[@evandean3944]

Beth was a big enough star to sell out the Royal Albert Hall in 1998. She never caught on over here and her audience in England is smaller now, but devoted.

[@nutsackmania]

the reason people like stuff is dependent on many factors, not just talent

[@morriganravenchild6613]

I'm a great fan of beth Orton - very talented songstress. Glad I found this.

[@musokofe]

first heard her in a moving car in seville more than 15 years ago... funny thing is the same night I discovered coltrane's love supreme and a couple of weeks latter bought both cds on a winter afternoon somewhere east and cold... now i live 200 km from the northernmost point of the southamerican continent and still listen to both... funky voice, I can clearly imagine her singing together with tom waits on a roadside somewhere

[@gnumbernine7457]

The way the guitar becomes like wind or rain drops and that voice. Amazing and refreshing.

Beth. I'm completely prone. Your work is so sublime that even the best critics cannot understand it. Fan since forever. Attended your Perth event in June (your drummer brought my Trailer Park cover to autograph). I was happy- but wished, with my 17 yr. old daughter dragged along, we could have had 30 secs. Thank you for your autograph & I do love you, since Astralwerks in the late 90's.

[@MedSou]

Music with no expiration date 👍👍👍👍👍

[@rlj1965]

My wife and Beth and her husband don't know that I have been in love with her for teen years. She's the best!

[@cocoalvarez9750]

So beautiful, so honest, like listening to the Sounds of a stream sitting peacefully. We also share the same love for the álbum Blue, and thinking there’s no one like Nick Drake. Thank you Beth.

[@lpc8278]

She elevates common, everyday phrases into magical, all consuming lofty reverence

[@jessthesongwriter]

Beautiful Beth. I love hearing this version which feels so intimate. You put so much passion into your music. You inspire me.

[@PrestonStuartKICKINGMULE]

Saw her last night at Le Poisson Rouge - Beth Orton is magic!

[@LiberLotus]

I really like her. Would love to see her live someday!

[@wyndgrove9452]

There's a wonderfully timeless sound to her songs.

[@toddpschierer1714]

Yes, loved her for along time!!! Wish she would come to Western New York or in Northeast some day!!!

[@MichaelSalmons64]

.........wow. Thank you, Beth.

[@09nob]

It's one thing being able to play this music.... and then to sing along to it, wow.

[@ADRIAN-fb9xj]

Beautiful Lady with a Beautiful Voice Singing Beautiful Songs......

[@ncukers]

[@PoetlaureateNFDL]

This is a very talented person, WOW!

[@jbhindabo]

Deep, soulful Beth Orton! Saw her on this tour of Sugaring Season. Highly recommend all her albums but especially Central Reservation and Sugaring Season.

[@Teona.aka.Maria.Tureschi]

WONDERFUL, I love Beth Orton !

[@louisemoogan5190]

This is jus what I've been searching for for ages, thank you

[@Echzachtly]

wow what a brilliant voice.

[@styxcreek]

reminds me of Nick Drake, so beautiful and melancholy.

[@bob5951]

Wow i was about to write that - really reminds me of Nick Drske

[@bennuballbags2]

She always has had a certain darkness and focus on her guitar. For some reason it reminds of "day is done"

[@Tyrni88]

Going to see her for the first time tonight in Helsinki!! Nothing personal to her but only yesterday i found out about her music.

[@amineiajouri]

Beautiful

[@LeahRayMendez]

What an amazing voice!

[@klausrain111]

❤ I LOVE Beth!❤

[@harald-bosh]

Beth Orton is cool! I like her since 1993! I saw her first in WILLIAM ORBIT`s Water from a Vine Leaf

[@Tubomaker]

I love Beth Orton

[@portcullis5622]

Nice to hear some of her new songs. I bought her first two albums but I am just catching up on her later stuff. In response to the query about the songs used in the David Attenborough documentary on hares- if it is the one that I saw a few years ago the music was by British folk singer Maddy Prior (similar voice to Beth Orton I suppose) and her band Steeleye Span, but I don't remember any Beth Orton songs. Of course it could have been a different programme that you watched!

[@portcullis5622]

With reference to my previous post about the music used on the Attenborough B.B.C. programme about hares- for the record the programme that I referred to was called 'Shadow Of The Hare' (late 1990's) and the music was Maddy Prior's 'The Fabled Hare' and both are on You Tube. Excellent film and evocative music, but no Beth Orton songs on that particular programme though unfortunately!

[@kiyoto123]

pure magic !

[@2bdragons]

love her

[@jbt6007]

I don't think there has been a better song than The Sweetest Decline..........like catching snow on my tongue...........

[@monkey555500]

shes brill

[@skipcarpenter7319]

Tiny Desk is the only thing NPR has going for it- this is fantastic.

[@BotZFounder]

Sadly it’s not more songs. She has so many great songs.

[@joetristan]

Let's jam, Beth

[@biopanc]

[@TheRollthedice]

[@angelominutillo9571]

[@MissYetiJ]

[@jenbergeron2013]

Gee I love Beth Orton. She reminds me very much of Joni Mitchell... Could listen to them both all day... oh wait, I do! hahaha

[@robshef718]

Then in a way, but her's , that sometimes raspy voice, like Janis Joplin

[@Fahamut]

It has been said that men age better than woman. Way to prove em wrong Beth! You have embraced your 40's well.

[@357CLOUDY]

Oh!

[@McHipster]

I didn't know she had new stuff, sounds a lot like Joni.

[@sonofkikkoman]

Such goodness this is!

[@johnpollock736]

Channeling early Joni Mitchell,.whatever it is quite beautiful ..

[@johnpollock736]

And maybe Sandy Denny

[@timothyfontaine1553]

[@KilamSabba]

So, what happened to Beth Orton?

[@konsumer]

Yo NPR, let me show you how to de-interlace and encode bruh. This is a 2012 vid and I was de-interlacing since 1998. Just ask Captain D

[@noahclark1807]

🔥🔥🔥 does this song make you happy in 2020 This video Wonderful 1:46 🔥💃 👇 👇💞

[@kevincoker4178]

Only way it would have been better, is if "Magpie" was in the set!

[@sonofkikkoman]

No, but i feel like i am now.

[@krisscanlon4051]

When you listen and aspire to be like John Martyn your career will be as fiercely independent as his was

[@robshef718]

Found her by way of Orbits music.

[@DreiSkins101]

She sound like an alley cat. Lol. OMG SMH

[@judyclarke423]

She’s really struggling singing very sad to see
