Symphony 1 In the Barrel of a Gun - Emily Wells

[@rev.dr.baransmuseumofmyste3889]

About 10 years, I hit that dumb "Stumble Upon" button and found this video. Then I shared it with my closest friends and we went to see her live several times. I think about this song a lot; this video in particular.

[@user27278]

Me too!!! I love this song and I.Also found it on StumbleUpon back then. I also like the juicy remix

[@maidenbleu]

Same ! StumbleUpon was so great!

[@maidenbleu]

I think this song in particular was the start of my live loop tracking obsession

[@danzhigh]

My brother showed me this song probably 10 years ago now. He's sadly passed on now but lives on within this song and many others. Fantastic song.

[@visualizerbinu]

same way I found it

[@chriskennedy8201]

Like a decade later and this still gives me chills..

[@milliondollarextreme99]

My sister passed away in 2013 from suicide and i found this in her favorites playlist. I listen to feel her. This song is so beautiful and powerful. Thank you.

[@jessicahelena7746]

I lost my sister in similar circumstances and she also loved Emily. My heart bleeds for you 💓

[@cleganite]

Everytime i listen to this,I think,somewhere down the road i will here this in the background of a movie,during a dramatic scene, or sequence. Haunting!!!!!

[@thesteve271]

I still think about this song a lot.

[@alexdellamico]

Same

[@pseudocaveman]

The world needs more of this. Unique artists only come around every once in a great while, and we have one before us.

[@EJ-jk7eo]

Voice of a hauntingly beautiful siren. So intense yet so gentle. Incredibly talented.

[@bigshot2775]

I had to really search to find this from my childhood. Glad to have found it.

[@kimpossible117]

Thank goodness i watched stoker, and 😭found her

[@loudpeanutbutter5294]

Just in case anyone is wondering about who the girl is in the background her name is Thao Nguyen. She's another musical talent that you may like if you like Emily wells. Check her out. There's a whole studio session with these 2. Good stuff.

[@davidhines68]

I first discovered Thao through this video. Later, I discovered Offspring, an Australian TV show that used her song as its theme song. I made it through seven seasons of Offspring without tiring of the song, which is saying a lot for me.

[@lukejacobs2000]

Thanks for that!

[@kristenlang1975]

Gorgeously arranged❤

[@PlayMadness]

This is... sublime. There is no other word for it. This has blown my view of music completely away. It's truly unique, and passionate, and incredible.

[@mrjoshuads]

She’s so talented and a musical genius.

[@FindlaighShaweUK]

It never gets old ...discovering a musical gem like Emily. She's the earth-mama goddess of counterpoint and quarter beats. She's the 21st Century cultural offspring of Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, Laurie Anderson et al., but so much more musical, more accessible , dare I say more talented? Her unaffected charm is transcendent. I worshipped Laurie Anderson but couldn't imagine hugging her. Emily Wells, however, is divinely huggable.

[@thirdunkle]

An extraordinary piece and a flawless, charismatic live recording. Such a treat to see this, wow what a future she may have. I was a little late discovering her but it came to me after hearing the Kid Koala remix of her song "The Passenger", a transcendental musical journey if there ever was one. "Show me the magic I says", and with this video she just did.

[@iching11111]

I play this song all the time, and every time i just freak out at how talented she is!! I am in AWE forever!! TY, TY, TY, TY!!!!

[@morkeijs]

I envy the people that gets to experience this for the first time these days

[@locotesmjr]

I wish I could give more than 1 like to this awesome artist

[@KenMoss2986]

I just stumble upon Emily, I'm so glad I did.

[@JamieGreim]

Loving it

[@KenMoss2986]

Loving your comments, glad you both liked it. I think I'll quit while I'm up ;)

[@irinasiberia54]

great !!

[@KenMoss2986]

Thank you Irina Kudashkina

[@galadriellothlorien9312]

I have never loved an artist like this. I feel something like attraction for this woman's music and voice. Absolutely unfathomably wonderful.

[@miserablerhurensohn]

I love it when KZbin surfing brings you to places you never dreamed of.

[@musikfreek1126]

Heard this song the other day and it's been stuck in my head ever since! So awesome.

[@MattBorck]

This awesome. Great vibe and love her voice!

[@roxynes]

Still gives goosebumps.. So good 👍🏼😣

[@keremtapani]

that's crazy man.... Í was searching this song every where and at last I found it and I can't stop listening it.Absolutely great...

[@nikitakade5242]

How many times have I commented on this? The best of its genre--which you invented. Emily, you stand alone, at the top. Goddamn, nobody who has not seen you do this live can be convinced...I bow to you.

[@georgeiron8399]

Hard to believe it took me so long to find this song . 2008, so many years have passed ,I finally found this song

[@Backflowz]

OK. one of the best song around...best voices... so meaningfull and brilliant.. and .. damn listen to this...

[@vizaric]

Браво, Эмили! Я не устаю слушать Вашу симфонию ))) Bravo, Emily! I never tire of listening to your symphony)))

[@Illitterate]

cant hear this often enough and keep on recommending to friends

[@Piyinone]

left me open mouthed! Bravo! what talent! Beautifull! This is what dedication brings! a Genious performance! I fell in Love ! This is Almost Heaven! ......

[@themainproblem]

It's just a matter of time before this woman makes it big. What a great talent!

[@alexrekzu4079]

I prefer this one over the studio version. 🍷2008 was a wild year for me

[@deenichols]

i saw and met emily last nite. i think i've posted this video to 50 friends by now. talent, talent, talent, talent.

[@MsKino101]

Ah!!! Another looping artist. LOVE!!!!

[@galangbang]

GEEZ. Just when I lost hope in finding new good music I hear this and I am speechless!!!

[@A11TA113NT3D]

this has been one of my favorite things to watch/listen to musically for years, i would pay top dollar to see this live. real talent. real song. awesome shit.

[@pankika89]

FANTASTIC. just discovered her today, and i'm looking up all her stuff. hopefully i'll have the chance to see her live; even better, get an interview with her. too much talent inside one single body to be believed as truth. technology does allow us to destroy the earth, yet if used correctly, technology has allowed arts to step 15 steps ups. hands down to emily who's currently making the best out of technology and arts.

[@crystal220]

So amazing! I've been listening to this song for over a year and I still get goosebumps. Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!

[@AndrewMariman]

Wow, this artist can throw down! Reminds me a little of Andrew Bird, if Bird had these looping skills...

[@eu4icorlando]

I first heard this song a year or two ago and got my kids hooked on it. The first time I ever saw anything like it was Levi Weaver doing this at an Imogen Heap concert many years back at the Crystal Ballroom in pdx. Good stuff

[@TheStrausJ]

Just pinned her in my GMusic and will listen today. Nice! (Nice hair!)

[@chrisquiett1776]

Oh she kills it. I would buy her a beer if she drank... I think she just smokes

[@theshakl]

i can't stop watching this vid. she's amazing

[@thewormkingalex]

simply amazing makes million dollar mainstream music look like crap no hype no gimmicks just music.

[@uHuRu1976]

i just cant get enough of this!

[@johnjarman7249]

This song reminds me of the YPJ girls fighting Daesh. We're the girls, girls, girls with the golden sun. The Sun is the Kurdish flag symbol. This song rocks, especially coming from the great statioin KRCL in my state SLC, Utah. Thanks Emily. ( Utah loves you )

[@stitcheslove]

Jesus christ, I am in love with this lady's music. O_O

[@666finnegan]

what an absolute masterpiece

[@lolipopPrincess]

She is incredibly amazing. I'm in love with her voice. It soothes my soul.

[@aliambo]

had this playing through my stereo. the bass and volume were up too high and completely exploded my hour glass. amazing.

[@nikitakade5242]

I don't know whether Emily Wells has refused major contracts and the whole TV circuit appearance thing, but if she hasn't been offered them--well, that's an obscenity. This is the most original work to come along in decades--sorry, Gaga, even though I do believe you're talented--and for Wells not to be dazzling audiences everywhere is a travesty. What she does is utterly original, beautiful, masterful, and inspiring. But the big catch is, you have to see her do it live. That's when it becomes downright astonishing. If this isn't raw insight capable of changing the way music is viewed, I don't know what is.

[@Fcastaneda2689]

Did you just compare Emily Wells to that transvestite lady gaga?! What is wrong with you!! Lady Gaga isn't even in the same universe as Emily Wells!

[@dewdropbythefarm]

ABSOLUTELY CANNOT WAIT TO SEE EMILY ON SUNDAY AT CASTAWAYS ITHACA

[@mikeboyle4611]

I love emily wells so much.

[@worldwidehandsome8427]

Mike Boyle I have the same name as her lmao

[@MrBebopChamploo]

Stumble indirectly led me here... and I'm glad it did. Really, really glad. ^_^

[@janinemorgan6460]

One of my all time favorites.

[@syntheticroot]

omg her voice is INCREDIBLE!!!!!! I love love love this.

[@WillumOfPostfarm]

If the person is awesome and doing it all live, then most definitely. Love for Emily Wells

[@anklebreaka03]

Wowww i don't listen to any music like this but she is incredibly gifted vocally, what an artist..!!!

[@DelawareResident]

I AM A FAN!!!!!!

[@JointManipulation]

nothin but respect and awe for this

[@harmonyAlinna]

This is so dope...Love love love it!!!! Totally in love!!!!

[@RagingHeffalump]

She blows my mind, I like watching how she builds the piece, too.

[@misherutaichou8683]

Its more than 10 years when I heart her first time, to the novel "Dragon fighter"...Nihal

[@MarioDiLeonardo]

It sounds great and is absolutely amazing to see her do all this!

[@marybouse4614]

amazing! love the voice!

[@boogie522]

[@cw8790]

why can't the be more musicians like her with real talent

[@ide495]

Stoker brought me here. Why had I not heard of Emily before? Great stuff

[@SqueeLumkins]

This is mindblowingly amazing. How come more people haven't heard of her?

[@geoffrey121148]

Just love her music so gifted!

[@OoTheRio]

Amazing! I love her voice her sound! It's so emotional !

[@cartmansp99]

One word. AMAZING

[@srhanna]

How absolutely cool. I love your sound and your imagination and hope you go far. I would love to hear more. Bravo!

[@ShredST]

Really nice stuff. Her singing reminds me of Beth Gibbons from Portishead.

[@athaasera]

That was the first person I also thought about when I heard this.

[@Feroand]

Evrende kendi halinde yüzerken bana rastlayan güzellik…

[@YourPalHDee]

Oh my god, I've never been so amazed by music. Thankyou Shawn of Mega64 for plugging this in the podcast.

[@leosneigza90]

This is amazing, Sarah Wells needs to do a universe tour!

[@gr8dain74]

You're right on the money. It is her!

[@watchingu33]

I enjoyed it, very entertaining! I watched to the end which I don't usually do. :) Good Job to the artist!

[@CreeperNerraw]

watching her do her thing is awesome.

[@higgobraga]

Amazing. Amazing. Loved it.

[@stamsospecial]

maravilleux! wow. she is fantastic!! best thing i've heard in a long time!! thanks so much for posting!!

[@Lothol]

shes great! this is just fantastic!

[@theoryaction]

I live in SLC, and I was listening to KRCL when she played (my first time hearing her). I was completely mindfucked by her music; especially her voice. I was near the end of my lunch break when she came on, and I ended up being about 30 minutes late back to work. Boss was pissed at me, but I was like, 'Screw you, I was listening to good music.' I ordered her album as soon as I got home.

[@angelicatheblack]

absolutely perfect, she is awesome...

[@cdbhl]

This sounds SO much better live. I just listened to the cd ver after listening to this and it doesn't compare to this at all.

[@DevinSIDScott]

her voice gives me chills!!

[@alemephiles07]

Beautiful! One of the best performance I've ever seen:)

[@sainow]

Favorited and five stars! I LOVE this!

[@kelzbelz313]

amazing! gave me goose bumps.

[@slowdivr2]

I met emily at a house party in Tacoma. She was backed up by SImple citizens. it was a pretty amazing night!!! ~Spaceboy

[@Ayan44]

this is real talent!

[@yellowandblues]

that is true spirit, living, breathing, creating. I Love Her.

[@Godofwar555]

Dear lord... That blew my mind. The girl is talented beyond all belief. This kinda reminds me of Dub FX, but her violin is so soothing!

[@catinatube]

just saw her perform at sxsw in Austin... she was fantastic! What a talent

[@haerverk]

What a voice! Im floating

[@frokenfie]

Thank you so much for this. I feel blessed :-) God damn woman you are good !!!

[@SublimeLily]

Oh my god, this is sooooooooo good...argh, its soooooo goood.......baaahh! Sooooooo goood!

[@crossnsj]

[@edward9083]

[@entropeak6981]

Apres bientôt 15 ans, toujours des frissons

[@nigma21qi]

Beautiful!!

[@MarlenaMarley87]

I can't stop listening to this song! And granted, at this point in time there are only fifty-some comments, but I think it's so awesome that this is the ONLY video I've EVER found on KZbin that has only positive comments. That's gotta say somethin'. Anyways, keep rockin' it, girl, I'm lovin' what you do!!
