Patti Smith-Land Horses+Gloria-Live @ Olympia-21-10-2015

[@karensmith7741]

Just amazing. Takes me right back to my youth. I am 68 now. We need all the power of poets and poetry more than ever.

[@MacEoin]

She is still the greatest of them all. No-one else comes close to her: her lyricism, her energy, her intensity, her performing skills, her creativity, her sense of inspiration, her almost shamanistic contact with whatever it is that drives her, her unchaningness, and, below all that, her personality, her humility, her writing skills, her insight, her defiance of age, her quite unusual musical sense, her adaptibility in both life and music, her transmission of feeling and some other dimension, her unsurpassed connection with her audiences, her mixture of femininity and a certain masculine assertiveness - not one other singer in popular music has all those qualities.

[@ant1sokolow]

Well said. And at almost 70 she don't sell nostalgia. She's still the "Horses" Patti Smith, here and now. No fake, no vapid routines. All those old rock bands that play at summer festivals may watch her and meditate.

[@thisgirlshair]

Nice. But 1 thing- is it defiance of her age? Or embracing? She could not have been what she is now any earlier, not in the same way anyway.

[@myideas8548]

Well said. I love this wonderful lady. Wonderful person.

[@carolinamejia7268]

Denis MacEoin Totally true!!! I love her!!

[@carrikrueger9696]

1000% agree....my favorite concert ever!

[@SpellBreakerStudios]

I saw her do this in New York in the early 70's 80's it was like a volcano

[@GiuseppeGazerro]

A talent like this is metaphysical; a supernatural energy.

[@BorrowedTunes]

You said it. She is the muse and the muse is her. A force of nature.

[@pamzavada5269]

​@@BorrowedTunesYessss!

[@charliesideshow8400]

THE Misstress of the Ceremony for SURE! Absolutely fantastic! Love it! I have been listening to HER from the 70's.

[@indioryder5981]

this performance is mind blowing, beyond words...

[@corneliakoller1914]

yes

[@dominiquelecren6314]

@@corneliakoller1914 . 😇

[@BorrowedTunes]

She's ALWAYS like this.

[@delilasloan8914]

Nobody does it like Patti..I always liked her but after reading her book JUST KIDS I have mad respect for her journey...

[@LordRandal1990]

I was having a pretty shitty day, then I put on Horses and it improved. Then I watched this and now I'm ready to conquer the world!

[@nafisahmohamed4772]

She is 1,000 years old and gave a performance like this? I was mistaken. She is incredible. She is timeless in lyrics and music.

[@marcelairrazabal9668]

Es verdad... no hay tiempos...solo su esencia infinita 🌱☘️🍃🌿

[@ericcrawford9827]

She is relevant, she surpasses everything

[@asteroideb54]

EXACTLY.......VOTRE TEMOIGNANGE est D'UNE JUSTESSE REMARQUABLE.....il n'y a rien à AJOUTER, MERCI d'avoir EXPRIMER DE MANIERE ELOQUENTE & PROFONDE CE QUE JE RESSENS également......

[@Lee-astrololee]

Just so fucken amazing still today!!!

[@naneeleo823]

totally . she is a queen , more than ever .. Magic !

[@brylorbs69]

Just saw her at Newport Folk Festival this weekend! You are so right!!!

[@chunhuashu]

I saw her in 1978 in Brussel. Amazing concert, but.....after the concert, when the audience was outside the area, she's came back and play 30 minutes extra for 100 people...Unbelievable !

[@zidneya]

I'm listening to this at 1AM... And so does my neighbors.

[@philippepages9929]

Ce qu'offre cette femme est beau à en pleurer.

[@mikehydropneumatic2583]

This is what I call Rock and Roll!

[@robertwinkelbauer3244]

See her in the 70' in his first gig in vienna. Raw energy rock! But this is a higher level..like a prophet of another dimension!

[@philippemasson2205]

what a voice she has, how charismatic she is... the Spirit of the seventies : the best decade the World has known so far

[@richardwalker5360]

This girl at any age has been spectacular. Now even more so at 70. RAW, Savage Rock n roll. No lip syncing,no pre Fab dance routine. No holding back on the vocals who else can say their performance didn't come out of a can?

[@barbarastepien-foad4519]

Effing awesome xxxxx

[@StarLuson]

You know that vocalist is really great when the bassist cannot stop staring at him even while play.

[@ediedisorder7144]

The boy was in the hallway...that's all we needed

[@mandys6257]

Living FKN legend woman you are everything

[@MsLizChatham]

Saw her in 1976 and she is still as amazing, as strong, as sexual, as powerful.

[@ΓεωργίαΣχοινα-ψ1ω]

RESPECT Patti rocks my soul

[@Swenners]

Rock n roll and art. Love this video!

[@sme1691]

I LOVE that around 6:30, she tried to start the verse but the crowd was too loud. So she communicated with them. Smiled, acknowledged, then asked with her hands to give her some sound space, and everyone understood. Beautiful.

[@jasondalton-earls9972]

Good spot. I saw that too.

[@xXxzAAa0aAAzxXx]

it takes that long? oh god

[@Hersenman]

I just stumbled over this by accident. I saw her perform this medley in Paradiso, Amsterdam, probably the same tour. Reliving the goose bumps, what a goddess.

[@debjones60]

I hope I have Patti’s energy and vitality when I reach nearly 70 years. She’s such an exceptional artist.

[@Cokoshea]

She's an inspiration. Period.

[@adlaird7]

Genius poet all from the heart. Patti Smith has a hotline with the Gods🌻

[@barbarastepien-foad4519]

Awesome I first saw Patti at the Roundhouse in London when I was still part student that was over forty years ago. You are awesome woman !!!!!

[@r.r.1546]

She is my spirit animal, fairy godmother, natural woman, and champion. She is the word amazing personified!

[@rachelwarren8142]

70 years old ! Best live performance ever IMO. Watched this a thousand times….what a crowd !

[@joetotale1]

I'm not quite sure how to express how much I love Patti. She may be the most inspirational person in my life

[@starstarr]

This is the best live performance I’ve ever seen. The fact she can still embody this type of raw energy is amazing

[@ManuelGarcia-in8hf]

My two favourite songs from Patti Smith together!! Awesome live performance!!!

[@TheMooserolls]

I'm just now finishing Just Kids. I have so much respect for the commitment to her art/writing . Turns out she's in town tomorrow night. I think I gotta go . And while I'm reading this my husband spies Michale Stippe in a rock doc with Patti and discussing his admiration for her art. I am SO late to this party.

[@Silvana.L]

Hope you finally saw her.

[@davidgordon5205]

When you're free you're timeless 😉

[@lynetteziemba9712]

She is more bad ass than I will ever be and 20 yrs older than me too.

[@maguelonneherault8181]

the best in the world ! and always so natural so poetic so mystic A great Artist, it's rare !Thank you You and Nina you are my two loves

[@9monava]

This is just so pure. I've been carried through the day on these wings of possibility and strength -- what a beautiful, powerful person -- goddess, elder, sprite, punk, poet, and her voice is so strong! And her relationship with the audience! wow! thanks for posting this!

[@tunnoton]

She is an irresistible force of nature; your post was real and vicious as well, thank you for that

[@Everythinghasasoul]

Simply the best!!

[@musibaba70]

One of the best interpretations of this binomial 'Horses/Gloria' that they always play. At least the starter is powerful and cool, all Patti Smith!!

[@colibri1954]

I saw her twice in France she is one of the best

[@Moorzo83]

Patti Smith May 13 2007 in Vicar Street Dublin remains the best gig I have ever been to, much appreciated for this upload

[@David-ei1fs]

Fantastic song, fantastic performance. Patti is truly an ARTIST.

[@Ess666]

pure distilled 100% rock n roll

[@billyoumans1784]

Holy cow. This is one of the greatest of her performances. So much power. Astonishing. This kind of presence is what we all strive for, who perform.

[@rachelwarren8142]

Never get tired of this !

[@tkaye6014]

A treasure, an original, an artist, a work of art, a force of nature and a badass. Love you Patti.

[@geraldbrundl6215]
