Wish You Were Here - Anneke Van Giersbergen - Paris 22/04/2015

[@smithy280663]

it's a good day when the YT rabbit hole leads you to gems like this...........

[@graemenicholson7477]

Just found Anneke last night on Beste Zangers......now a fan for life.....Just WOW, bless her always, Love from England, G xxx

[@rupenkesenci8081]

This is probably the best version I've heard. Great voice, great melody variation, great phrasing, and great vocal solo that blows away the original great gig in the sky. Thank you

[@lubberwalker]

To those concerned about the "drunken brutes". Audience participation is a part of her performance that she engages beautifully with. Engage being an apt description as many times those man-shouts/grunts include marriage proposals (and other "friendly" proposals). Every shout is a warm positive embrace that she inspires. All in the audience are with her all the way and glad to be there that night. She is safe surrounded by her shoutie guys. Did you notice how relaxed this feedback made her performance. She thrives on it. It's a wonderful symbiosis. How else could she have the confidence to stand there and sing a guitar solo?

[@Lectric_Blue]

Interesting point, well made.

[@lubberwalker]

@@Lectric_Blue not totally objective though. I'm smitten.

[@Lectric_Blue]

@@lubberwalker Who wants to be objective? We watch and listen so that we can be part of Annie's little world. If only for a moment or two ... 😍

[@silvanonovalis-kj2dx]

What a beautiful voice! This song is a tribute to all of those who are gone. What is left: pain and sorrow.

[@bullmoose2962]

God Bless KZbin for bringing so many wonderful artists to my eyes and ears! And, it's free I hope forever!!

[@Magneticitist]

There are tons of truly amazing singers out there who have insane pipes but when I listen to Anneke sing I think damn, how did vocal chords and lungs just naturally one day develop on a human that sings such beautiful melodies.

[@juandavidcaicedo5696]

This is one of those voices that bring you at the verge of tears somehow. So beautiful.

[@karinkittinger1800]

Beautiful voice, beautiful song, beautiful interpretation, beautiful soul ❤

[@keeskloost6977]

I am converted. Angels do exist. Anneke is one of them.

[@globulant99]

Thank you Anneke. I play this song and always think of my late mother, because I wish she was here. A lovely rendition.

[@MoatenGat]

My favorite song, she did a smashing job. Thanks for posting.

[@christianpomrenski3578]

I must say that you are absolutely delightful. You have a wonderful sense of humour and I love the way you don't take yourself seriously. You have an incredible voice and you appear to be a beautiful person. I hope one day you will come and play in Montreal, Canada. Thank you, Anneke. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@cyrille9973]

It seems that you're lucky Christian, she'll play in Montreal @Club Soda on 23th of september. Check her official website tour page : www.annekevangiersbergen.com/tour/

Quanto sei bbona Anneke! Love from ❤❤❤ Italy. Alex.

[@mynameisntfrank5650]

A vocal pull on a guitar solo... That borrows from Dark Side of the Moon... Just so simple and yet perfect. I can't describe how that hit me.

[@Lectric_Blue]

There was definitely a hint of 'The Great Gig In The Sky' there, wasn't there?

[@56Ronin56]

20 minutes ago I didn't know this woman existed. Now I'm in love!

[@HalLevente]

Check the early "The Gathering"albums, especially Mandylion !

so great they even must listen.. time after time.

[@Zeda1002]

seems she doesn't mind the interaction, on contrary

[@GrungefolkBoy2010]

They are at a gig enjoying themselves...you are watching for free.....

[@IN2VWStv]

She handles him very well

[@lubberwalker]

No no no, this was all part and parcel of her show. She accepted it as support and appreciation, interacted with it and used it as a springboard. Everyone is included. Nobody spoiled or interfered. Every performance is different, adaptive and good natured. The whole, enjoyable.

[@wareidav]

Wow. Wow. Wow..... Beautiful voice.... Beautiful arrangement.... Beautiful lady.

[@Eltonlaleham]

awesome in billions of ways

[@gillesbourgeois5348]

I didn't know her 20minutes ago, her dutch name brought me here, dutch musicians are underrepresented on the medias. Ok so she sung in the Dutch group called The Gathering (fair name) from 1995 to 2006, then create her own group Agua de Annique (strange mix between spanish and french...?) dixit Wiki!

[@r.d.8944]

Check VUUR,her rock band.

[@brentillstrademe1150]

What a voice....and a personality

[@Muusfulify]

She truly is a wonderful and sweet person, I met her once (see one of my uploads), her vibe is so positive and contagious.

[@GBTC2011]

Great voice and personality indeed, but a poor rendition of "Wish you were here". Very amateurish.

[@jjls200467]

GREAT

[@elsamcb396]

Shes incredibly gorgeous!

[@faycalgoussi2906]

Good. See her playing time after time Cindy Lauper’s best song ever. Fayçal
