This is one of the most played songs on soft rock radio globally. I heard an interview with Anne Preven, she said Natalie Imbruglia is the gift that keeps on giving, the royalties just roll in every month and I don't have to worry about my future.

[@blue-fj9ky]

She must have sung that song a million times but she's still into it and enjoying singing it. Very cool!

[@jb7753]

I saw her as 1 of the many opening acts for the Corrs last November in Melbourne and she can still belt it out with passion.

[@TheEulerID]

Natalie is also such a warm and relatable character. Also, she's made London her home, and has been a naturalised British citizen since 2013. We are privileged. I never understand why Shiver was not an equally strong hit, complete with a great video (as was Torn of course).

[@krikorajemian8524]

My favorite performance of this song is her appearance at the Secret Policeman's Ball 2006, with David Armand miming the lyrics.

[@nobody_special]

💯

[@rykehuss3435]

my favorite is when she sang this while riding me

[@Shermanite0623]

This is the first time I've listened to Natalie Imbruglia, and she sounded really good.

[@nicholasschneider6655]

The music video for this is one of my all time favourites. Not only because she is so adorable to look at, but the moving of the background sets and her dance near the end are entrancing. And it is of course a great song.

[@marshallgeorge3819]

I remember hearing this in the late 90's when it was released, and loved it immediately. Such a sweet vocal. I think we need a Beth Roars cover of this !

[@carolmartin4413]

Love this song...great rhythm and the words are so relatable. She does a wonderful job just singing it pure and simple with human emotion. The lyrics are straight heartbreak...breaking up is so hard to do. Great guitar work too. 👍

[@markp8581]

I love this song and she is really an adorable woman always has been.

[@darrinmoon1974]

my fiancée and I play this on rockband4 all the time .I play drums and back up vocals as she sings lead. so fun doing harmony with her.

[@visordo]

Blast from the past! I did not know it was a cover, thanks for sharing

[@yrankin1]

I loved women’s music in the 90s!!

[@jayltee]

She’s such a great live voice.

[@robertpetre9378]

Natalie Imbruglia did a really great cover of this song. I remember when I first heard it and thought this would be a great rock song and then discovering it originally was a rock song performed by Ednaswap and also in 1993 by Lis Sørensen in danish.

[@VoxTone2009]

And Trine Rein also did a cover of this, so did Sol Heilo (former Katzenjammer). Ednaswap is a band made up of the writers of the song and Lis Sorensen was the original recording of it. All of these are to me much better than this version. Not a fan of it.

[@Mike-zx1kx]

What are the title of the song by Lis Sørensen?

[@freddiemossberg7204]

Big fan of her 2001 album White Lilies Island and she’s got a lovely tone to her voice.

[@LiesThatBind]

Love Natalie, she's got some great tunes like Smoke, Wishing I was There, Big Mistake, Beauty In The Fire and Sunlight. Her most recent release is a pretty good listen too.

[@chriscuthbertson]

I love Nat's voice.

[@sibertiger1970]

I love the version with David Armand providing his comedic "hearing impaired signing"

[@brianhowells1547]

Love the album Left of The Middle that Torn is on, it is great

[@XolaresTiberius]

one of my fav songs in my first year of high school!

[@Aussiecris214]

Good to see your doin anither awesome cover and your infectious smile ❤ Beth cant wait to here your new album❤❤

[@Roh_Echt]

Don't forget a Danish singer Lis Sørensen recorded it first and it's titled: "Brændt", Danish for "Burnt"

[@DanielMarquesMoreira-dj2cd]

Natalie linda e canta demais

[@oscararzate7956]

Me encantó la frescura de la canción esa voz muy tierna para mí gusto la cantante muy bonita y la coach tan hermosa mi regalo 🎁 de año nuevo bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀

[@rogue1290]

Love this song.

[@ncc74656m]

Natalie is so adorable. I got to be pretty into her music for a while and still enjoy going back to it. Apparently she had a lot of trouble getting her career started because of her name which agents encouraged her to change.

[@ggreig]

Her 2009 album "Come To Life" seemed to be a low point commercially, but honestly I think it's her best - listen to anything on it.

[@indus3270]

Should have gone for the live performance where she invited one of the first internet memes on stage: a mime miming all the lyrics to this song!

[@EconAdviser]

Played in several hit movies, too, such as Princess Diaries and Pitch Perfect 2

[@AAFREAK]

Yeah, growing up through the 90s, I heard this one first. When I discovered the original though, it was quickly my favorite. Imbruglia's version has its place by turning it into a pop hit, and if it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have found the original. There's such a mood to it, I just can't quite place it. It's emulated in the cover, but not entirely.

[@ronboyer1906]

Love your reactions! Just wondering when you might do a more recent reaction to Lucy Thomas. The only one I could find that you reacted to was 3 years old. Lucy is 19 now and her voice has matured so much and her range is even bigger. I think you will be pleasantly surprised!

[@coljj4356]

'Smoke' is her best song.

[@Obelixlxxvi]

Still so pretty 😍

[@TheNathanEverest]

There is a song by a Canadian group called the good lovlies I think you would just absolutly adore called beat I know its quite a song and group please t least just give it a listen even if you dont make a video about it 😊

[@lucaborroni8626]

Natalie Imbruglia with Torn has signed a new pop kind of music..in end 90's and First 2000 Imbruglia Alanise Morissette open a new World In Italy appeared Elisa( a mix between Bjork and Morissette) in her First Life ...then She becones best female italian Singer ...I suggest to analyse almost One of these songs Labirynth, Rainbow,Dancing,Waves,Luce, Heaven out of hell,Anche Fragile,

[@Flesharrower]

She was married for 5 years to Daniel Johns from Silverchair. You should give them a listen.

[@mamamac70]

I'm really excited for this one! I love Natalie's voice. I do have a request. Could you maybe react to some Christina Perri sometime? I would love to hear your opinions on her voice. I especially love the song Distance by Christina which features Jason Mraz. ❤

[@jgrotland]

You should look up Anne Preven--she has written and worked with lots of famous singers. She is super interesting.

[@DesertHomesteader]

I don't see this as a song that works well in an large outdoor venue. Part of its charm are the quiet moments that just don't work in a noisy environment. That said, it is clear from this performance that Natalie can really sing, which is nice to know.

[@willswalkingwest7267]

She already is to her fans but Natalie should have been a much, much bigger star.

[@Shermanite0623]

Hi Beth, about 5 years ago you reacted to No Doubt's live performance of "Don't Speak" I really enjoyed your reaction. I was hoping you could react to Haley Reinhart and PostModern Jukebox covering "Don't Speak" by No Doubt. If you haven't seen it yet I think you will enjoy it.

[@HeavyMetalBluegrass]

Love this song. Never saw this live version. None of that auto-tune crap. Thanks for posting.

[@paulosergioalmeida1000]

#IzaVictória is a girl who was abandoned in an orphanage and adopted by a mother, today she is successful in Brazil I leave a suggestion for your reaction, she is fanning the #Radiohead cover with the song creep

[@kb62147]

Great video

[@Shermanite0623]

Anne Preven of Ednaswap actually wrote the lyrics.

[@s.keikhosro_5555]

I love ur hair and u 😢

[@rkempo]

Was this at ST.Ives in Cornwall? If so I was there!

[@brookedavisophia]

ohhhhh one of my favorite artists!! can't wait to watch! you should react to another of her songs called Smoke 🙂🙂

[@fredichon]

Was about to leave that exact same comment… Smoke is her best song imo. Elite taste my friend!

[@TXLogic]

When are you going to cover one of Lawrence’s acoustic videos, either “Don’t Lose Sight” or “23”???

[@Dani874-zp3hi]

React biafra - sonho de Ícaro e teté Espíndola - Escrito nas Estrelas Brasil

[@justinh4026]

Please do Andy Hull's cover of this!

[@mcdreisig7924]

Neck deep's version of this song is amazing.

[@barrybarry5803]

Hot, Hot, Hot!... and by the way, it is a great song!!!

[@clashagstrom8840]

You should really react to The BEachland Ballroom by IDLES. The From The Basement session :)

[@jerkwater407]

As an awkward 90s punk lover.. Yeah, Natalie was great. In US and she Aussie so I knew it wasn't gonna work lol

[@jerkwater407]

She's still the same, girl next door but outta reach

[@jeffrogers2180]

This hurts my heart. Watch the performance by the person who wrote the song, Anne Preven, it has soul which this bubblegum performance does not. There is a video of her singing it live on the Howard Stern show. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaazdqGfZqh2j9Usi=7X6hHvhcdBYqN7dD

[@jenserikschreiber2463]

And before Natalie did it, it was done in Danish by Lis Sørensen - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKrYeJSLadeLoKMsi=9XVhKzRtjTTMHVBW

[@tomcan48]

Now Nicolette Larson please.

[@diniaadil6154]

I was this year's old when i realized "torn" is not her original song .

[@rogue1290]

Love this song. Prefer the studio version. She just really emotes in that rendition.

[@tinetsengwa]

React to Inger Lise Hope - Adagio

[@MartinWeng]

Hi Beth Der er en bedre sangerinde der udgav nummeret lige før Natalie, langt bedre og varmere tone, hun er fra Norge og hedder Trine Rein kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6aZlax3d9KFq7M&ab_channel=WarnerMusicDenmark Der også en endnu tidliger version på Dansk med Lis Sørensen. På Dansk hedder nummeret Brændt (Burend) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKrYeJSLadeLoKM&ab_channel=WarnerMusicDenmark Love Lara Fabian ❤ Love from Denmark ❤

[@itzmatheuzin]

Cassadee Pope’s The Voice version of Torn is something worth checking out as well ❤

[@thepayne7862]

The original version was done by 90's band edenswap. They originally released it on an album they released themselves. About a year or two later they actually got a deal with a record label. However a month or two before it's release Natalie's album was released and Torn became a big hit. So sadly when Edenswap's album came out their song was a hit for Natalie. I definitely recommend the orignal version it has a different feel to it. Also early 2000's band Off by One does a good cover of it.

[@J.D....]

Taken from wikipedia "Torn" is a song written by Scott Cutler, Anne Preven, and Phil Thornalley. It was first recorded in 1993 in Danish (renamed "Brændt", Danish for "Burnt") by Danish singer Lis Sørensen, then in 1995 by Cutler and Preven's American rock band Ednaswap, and in 1996 by American-Norwegian singer Trine Rein.

[@thepayne7862]

@@J.D.... Ahhh thanks for the updated information. So two of the people that wrote it formed an American band known as Edenswap. So Edenswap's version wasn't the first version sung. However it sounds like Edenswap's is the orignal English version.

[@jon-paulfilkins7820]

@@J.D.... Phil Thornalley played base in the Cures Love cats, he kind of stepped in for a while in between his studio mixing and production "day time job". He's been part of writing some pretty big pop hits. Scott Cutler has also a lot of writing/mixing/production credits. Often with Anne Preven. I'm starting to think that Ednaswap is a bit of a "Garbage" band, in that just like Garbage, almost all the members are successful writers/producers etc in their own right.

[@user-vc5rp7nf8f]

you're really pretty and cute

[@coreenavenn4235]

I do t know why she wore an apron. Perhaps she'd been cooking at a BBQ before she went onstage

[@aknelson229]

Ooh, I dig the original. Great song for a cover really, could do a lot with it. Would love to hear Alanis Morrisette do it. Or someone use a more angsty style like that.

[@CHRISSX-x2k]

I remember you

[@nyxskids]

Ok, I usually only listen to the original version of this song by the original artist, but since it's you, Beth, Imma gonna try to stick this video out. Natalie doesn't do this song any justice imo, but without her butchering it, again my opinion, it lead me to the original much better version, so for you I'll try to get through this. Edits: She did NOT keep to the original's tone. She turned a song of pain and passion into boring bubblegum. Although at least live it's like a candy bar with a few additives, but still candy rather than substance. It's like that soda that was popular at about the same time. Taking a turkey dinner and making it sodapop, which is candy in drink form. Natalie is a talented singer, but this song was not a match for her. Again it's an opinion. I feel all the depth of the lyrics get lost in her candy voice. Also, I think it's odd you picked the only part of Edna Swap's version that kinda lined up with Natalie's version to sample. Still love ya, just have a differing opinion about this one. But hey, I made it all the way through the video!

[@daveman_50]

IMO, this performance doesn't deserve such attention. It's OK. She's pitchy and her lower register is weak. It's a good composition and her touring band is playing and singing it "perfectly" live as a good pop band should. Nice for the fans to sing along.

[@user-tz2ri2cb5l]

So confused by the apron she is wearing.

[@rykehuss3435]

this song is so gay and lame but its too catchy. I remember when it was big. good old days

[@AndreA-ke2id]

Sorry Beth but your reaction is frustrating. Too many interuptions and the technicals may appeal only to a minority.

[@guitaleleoeuvre]

jealous much?

[@Molix1981]

Way too much stops...👎

[@jpsmusicandmore5457]

shes cute with not much talent

[@KevinMasters-lw5de]

Such a hottie but she is aussie so makes sense sounds good also good girlfriend sound for sure

[@zotharr]

Dont forget to watch this comedy mime act based on this song, lol watch?v=ObN7gt23m1M
