Brandi Carlile - The Story (w/ the Seattle Symphony)

[@jamesburrell677]

Every once in a while there is a true masterpiece. This is one of them.

[@sanddabz5635]

Big time agree!!

[@loriyoung6356]

Ten years later this song still hits my heart. I wish I'd been there to hear this live. Epic.

Still can't figure out how this amazing artist evaded my earbuds all these years. The moment of enlightenment came way late with her performance at this year's Grammys. So glad we have these videos to catch up on all of the brilliant work she has done.

[@pogi621]

She is under rated. Can't stop listening to her songs after I heard this song about 12 years ago. I've always been adding this song to my band's repertoir but never played it because none of my singers will dare to sing it... Still trying to find a singer who will finally sing this one as an opening piece for our performance.😊

[@tylerdurden1221]

This is one of the greatest songs ever.

[@Phaedragon]

There is something really sublime about those lyrics, her gut wrenching delivery, that melody, and those strings that come in...

[@WhiteTiger333]

Woah - nice backup band that night! Gave me goose bumps to hear the orchestra playing that wonderful song with her.

[@colleenkramlich6210]

This song makes me cry everytime I hear it. Truly great lyrics!

[@bigdaddywbl]

Only a few songs make me tear up. When her voice breaks, so does my heart.

[@paulbachman7822]

I played this for some hardened individuals and she locked up most of them. Adreed Sir.

[@tigerstripe56]

The first time I ever heard this song it crushed me... it’s so beautiful. I can’t listen to it without tearing up and some days cry.

[@pamelapaxton75]

Brandi is amazing love her ❤

[@PeaceLovePitBulls]

Showing your soul like this, like a raw open nerve is pure beauty.

[@karendavisyoung5922]

How is it possible that there are 20 people in the world that do NOT like this song? I never cease to be amazed................

[@chriscanndy]

It's up to 49.. what a sad sad lot they must be...

[@maggielucas4677]

They truly are sad if they cannot love Brandi singing The Story

[@sa65cn1]

Why is this woman not more well known, she's fantastic!!!! I've listened to her for years after accidently finding her on You Tube.

[@johnhardesty3167]

Some distant angel, dropped her trumpet, in awe, when she overheard this magnificent voice that reached the depths of Heaven's floors, and the gates flung open in joy!

[@paulbachman7822]

You could not have said it any better Sir. Well Done!

[@BJane58]

Not fair ! All that beauty and talent to match . She is simply incredible !

[@rsqdogsmom]

OMG. I can barely stand to listen to her; she makes me cry, and shiver. Nobody should be this good.

[@Scorpsfan]

Yeah ok

[@ethaera]

I was at this show, it was SPECTACULAR

[@lisarnful]

she's amazing... this song gives all "the feels"

[@BJane58]

Don't know why I listen to this. It breaks my heart. Any words used to describe Brandi Carlile fall short. It's like she knows what we've all been through.

[@PadenKline]

This may be the best song ever made... and this is probably the best way it was ever delivered...

[@RandomNEGuy]

Hate to steal a previous listener's comment but this is truly a "transcendent" song. Saw her on SNL yesterday and am still in a trance. Thank you Ms Carlile for really making a difference in so many of our lives -- corny but true.

[@bookshopgirlilmariel2510]

This is probably my favourite live performance of a song ever.

[@ZZZZAS]

Oh My God!!! How good was that? It was so good that I no longer am sure what good used to be...love you Brandi! You are one of the greatest singers I've ever heard!!! And I mean top 3

[@toryyuh]

This song is so damn Beautiful!

[@robertbuchanan9372]

Amazing and beautiful... The song is amazing and how she takes control of it is incredible...

[@jaymibader7745]

After being married for almost eight years (together for twelve), and being diagnosed with and battling stage IV breast cancer throughout most of our marriage, this song just feels like the story of my husband and my’s life. ❤️ It brings all the feels.

[@beachbum200009]

Jaymi best wishes to you.

[@tess7228]

God bless

[@jonahreviewfunstudio4881]

See you again....how great to watch this....

[@floraizzie]

Magnificent song and magnificent song writer & performer. One of the best songs ever written.

[@roaldleroux2123]

Stunning melody;in contact with her whole backing orchestra; beautiful orchestration...most of all an artist that is not performing the music, but singing from her gut and soul. Well done Brandi...lovely song!!

[@ChainlessSoul]

One of my perennial favorites. Brilliant!

[@LynetteDiazMusic]

Awesome video capture. I was in the audience with my two children that night. Will forever be one of those unforgettable moments in my life and our family shared story.

[@edgreen8140]

Love it when she plays electric. 👏

[@rochardlippert325]

This is the best I have ever heard .love this song

[@leoesch4686]

wow wow wow.....this Song means something special 4 me

[@jenngonemad]

YES! I found her through them using that song on their finale, I heard it and instantly went searching to find out who sang. I owe Anthony Bourdain a BIG thank you.

[@UnresolvedStrings]

Love you Brandi. You are amazing. Lyrics of your all songs are just extraordinary. Thank you.

[@mephalisko]

she is amazing! I love all her songs!

[@tess7228]

I have always loved the rawness of her voice for lack of a better term. She has a very different voice I love it and always have!

[@sentino68]

Simply amazing. . . Thank you for posting this gem.

[@ctchampagne]

I was at this concert! I was not a big Brandi fan but was invited by someone who is and I absolutely loved it!

[@TheAndrewwenner]

lovely CARLIE, i havent done much of this type of music myself, but I'd love to some day, and this is inspiring...

[@nanahaiaustin9885]

Has it really 10yrs.Time flies.So does her music.As well as her soul.She makes a joyous noise unto the universe, cause I think when she sings time stops for just the time it takes to hear her sing.

[@CookieeMonstarr666]

cant stop listening .

[@ritnyc]

Saw her yesterday at the Town Hall. Great gig. Amazing voice, great range and really connects with her audience

[@EliteHapkido]

words transcend cultures and times, hiding the pain beneath our facades. be thankful for the one that stands by you, through sickness, health, wealth, poverty

[@Onetreehilllover5]

YES that is sweet music in my ears!

[@wendyfox3629]

I just Married the love of my life, Karen:::::::::: June 25 2014:::::::::: This is our song.,.Wendy and Karen are now legally married, thanks to Indianas new law saying its our constitutional right!

[@erincoburg5872]

Congratulations Wendy! (You too, Karen.) Brandi's incredible passion, grace & love just explodes when she pours out heart & soul through words & music. Hallelujah! Love each other, you two. Cuddle & french & snuggle & tease & forgive & accept unconditionally...

[@whilhelm1]

hope you are still happy as I am still listening to Brandys story

[@dwcraggs60]

I recently re-discovered the love of my life, and never realized how "connected" we were until I accidentially heard this being performed, and tears began rolling down my face. It was then that I knew this song was about our love and relationship. It is going to be played at our wedding October 13th. Thank you!

[@loriwhite1450]

Beautiful amazing awesome.Touched my soul in a deep profound way.Love you Brandi

[@batandball617]

This gets me every time I play it. Than you Brandy & the twins!

[@junkmail75034]

Agreed. Awesome sound quality that does justice to Brandi's performance. Best I have heard on youtube.

Brandy me inspira... Me gusta mucho con canta!!! Tiene una voz inigualables .... Escuche the story hace 5 años y hoy la pude encontrar ..

[@melleriffic]

3:41 - 3:45 best part of the song..

[@hannahtaylor4851]

😊

[@jpeopolis]

Every time I see this, I'm just as blown away as I was the first time I heard her perform. She's truly a phenom! I can't wait til she comes back to Wolf Trap:)

[@timrealbuto6608]

I hope I never have to meet any of the 47 heartless, soul-less people who disliked this video!

[@carlosguillermo5508]

CGLV It's the song and the story of many. From Chile with love

[@honeydooda]

This one is my favorite version of this song by Brandi. The great T.Bone Burnett produced this album of hers, THE STORY.

[@andrzejpatla5684]

A Classic by a superb singer.

[@vicariousxiv2436]

She sounds the same live as she does in the album version, simply stunning and so freaking talented! I wish there was an album version with the orchestra playing with her though, it adds such a wonderful sound to an already wonderful song, just doubling the awesomeness lol

[@rodrigobarr7]

My god!!!! this song is the representation of my life! I love you DW

[@lorahenson6082]

omg I can not stopping listening'

[@multicaruana]

Brandy Carlile- possibly the end of my listening era that began with Joan Baez, the end of the folk line for me. This was great, is great.

[@emmy1870]

This mustve been amazing!!! Shes coming here on friday:DD

[@linnieosbornejones9061]

Awesome version Brandi

[@rodrigobarr7]

God Bless you Brandi Carlile fr this master piece.

Ellen Millbourn Me too. And I’m a dude.

[@326kjk]

Brilliant!!!!

[@sanibelSF]

see/hear her in person-she is the BEST

[@rosagorda]

I want to see Brandi perform in an arena, not a hall. She and her band members deserve it.

[@АлексейШохин-с8в]

Very beautiful

[@williamlewis8821]

Absolutely brilliant

[@ianhunter9149]

It feels sacrilege to say it.... but this might be the greatest song of all time.

[@sliceserve234]

props to the symphony with a really nice back up arrangement

[@195767uuu]

ROSE superrr video!!

[@4545Nils]

BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sarahminnis6231]

Boom. Right there in the heart.

[@TheBlackdove81]

Definitely a lovely song... :D

[@RandomNEGuy]

An old video of course. Still listening - not to sound too weird but I will simply repeat what I said about a year ago... Thank you Ms Carlile for really making a difference in so many of our lives -- corny but true.

[@sbe79]

Alright. This much is true: I am a Brandi Carlile fan. Like a great one. Like I've seen her 4 times in concert. I'm also trying to promote Beth Hart's page. I really believe that these 2 artists are near EQUALS. Sincerely. Beth held a major label for years. Go and see.
