Lyrics :
Caught a lite sneeze. Caught a lite breeze.
Caught a lightweight lightningseed.
Boys on my left side. Boys on my right side.
Boys in the middle - and you're not here.
Doot do, do do do do do, doot oo...
I need a big loan from a girl zone.
Building... tumbling... down.
Didn't know our love was so small.
Couldn't stand it at all.
Mister Saint John just bring your son.
The spire is hot and my cells can't feed.
And you still got that Belle dragging your foots, yes.
I'm hiding it well, Sister Ernestine.
But I still got that Belle dragging my foots, yes.
Building... tumbling... down.
Didn't know our love was so small.
Couldn't stand it at all.
Mister Saint John just bring your son.
Right on time.
You get closer and closer, call my name.
There's no way... in- use that fame.
Rent your wife and kids today.
And maybe she will, I said maybe she will.
Caught a lite sneeze. Dreamed a little dream.
Made my own pretty hate machine.
Boys on my left side. Boys on my right side.
Boys in the middle and you're not here.
Boys in their dresses and you're not here.
I need a big loan from a girl zone.
I need a big loan from a girl zone.
Building... tumbling... down.
Didn't know our love was so small.
Couldn't stand it at all.
Mister Saint John just bring your son.

Ok can we take a moment to appreciate the drummer? Cos damn.

[@drumtravelfun]

Matt Chamberlain.

[@mvonwalter6927]

Legend. He drummed for Fiona Apple around that time too.

[@AkashicGrrl]

@@mvonwalter6927 Definitely. I so love her new drummer, Ash. Matt's discography is singular. I think he's touring with Brandi Carlisle, but he's played for Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks, David Bowie, Elton John, Springsteen, A Perfect Circle, Leonard Cohen, Chris Cornell, Peter Gabriel, Lorde, Kanye West, Perfume Genius, Zola Jesus, Phantogram, Of Montreal, John Mayer, Frank Ocean, Rufus Wainwright, The Who. I mean. Good Lord! What a resume...

[@jennydietrich1025]

THIS woman changed my life in the 90s. She is still my goddess!! I worship Tori 🥰

[@StopSelfDoubting]

Same here. Her album brought through some rough times in the late 90’s. I’ll forever cherish this album as well as this song.

[@julieclifford7698]

Me too 💛🧡♥️

[@leeoconnor5570]

Why isn’t music made like this anymore? What a talent!!! So fucking next level.

[@KellyDFlynn]

Tori is brilliant ❤️

[@threefreaksonaleash6619]

It is...it’s just not super mainstream. Myrkur is just as amazingly beautiful if you haven’t heard of her.

[@MelBee128]

There is still music like this being made but we don't hear it much because the record companies are too afraid to take a chance. Even Tori had to fight to make her type of music. The record companies wanted her to dress provocatively with big hair. Hence the YKTR days. Thank goodness she fought for her music and persona.

[@jospenner9503]

Because people are too ADD to understand anything more complex than Taylor Swift.

[@sugarlumpie]

Check out her new album, ocean to ocean, and new release, swimming pools, a kendrick Lamar cover and collaboration with trevor Horne ❤

[@justinsomething]

i love that she probably told the band beforehand, "i might go on forever, so i'll give you a signal when it's time to close up shop" 6:02

I remember carrying Little Earthquakes in my CD player for years, and then seeing the local newspaper talking about the concert she performed at a week ago. I had no idea that was happening, and I truly don't have any regrets bigger than that.

[@kayjay111111]

Still to this day the only version of a song I consider MORE AMAZING than the originally recorded. Tori and this band elevated an already amazing song. I don't even play the album version anymore. I come straight to this one. CLASSIC.

[@C-Lyfe85]

I dunno, that break beat, on the studio version, makes the song.

[@yasmin8851]

I know right??!!👍

[@ClayJonesCO]

I come back to this video often over the years. It’s a magical performance. I just want to point out that everyone in the room was on point that night, in that moment. Not only Tori and the musicians, but the cameras captured it perfectly, the lighting was flawless for the mood, the sound team nailed it… and the audience cheered when appropriate and savored the moment… not over singing her or yelling obnoxiously. This was a perfect moment in time. I’m glad it was captured and shared widely so we could enjoy it.

[@leafnlore2712]

Agreed!

[@tommasosilvestro]

The shade she throws at Trent here when she sings "You said 'I hurt myself today' ... oh god, you never could, you never did, you're full of sh*t" is so powerful

[@bzqp2]

That part was a bit too much I feel. :/ Calling Trent "Mr Saint John" was enough of a burn already. :P

[@riccardosaga]

again, Tori Amos never exploited children. A few children acted in a video of hers (I know you refer to Raspberry Swirl), just like it happens all over the civilized world.

[@tashaschneider1419]

@riccardosaga: Such blatant and headstrong willful ignorance. The children did not simply ACT. They had a wicked perverted woman singing about oral sex in front of them, then laughing at them. Because to satanists like Tori Amos, exposing children to sexually charged content is FUNNY.

[@BaconIsNotBiceps]

She is one of the most brilliant musicians in the history of music. Clear genius.

[@angeldoherty]

Yes she make me cry and she is the bomb, I’ve seen her a lot , would live to meet her! I only met Maynard when he was in APc for Nin ! Totally obsessed with live Nine Inch Nails. I can’t believe what Courtney loved and they could’ve been good together. Why did she influence him so much because they did drugs together I know Tori didn’t. She has so many songs about that bitch this woman is fantastic. Even Trent says I don’t know what happened I should’ve stole her lived her!

i wish this version was included in "to venus and back"

she throws such major shade in this version. love it so much.

I feel like I should be sending Tori Amos $260 every week for therapy. I f'ing ugly cry with her, so much I don't allow other people around when I listen.

[@Undercoverbrotherfromanother]

Hey snowflake, grow a pair. She is talented and beautiful, we all know, but how hard is your life living in mom's basement playing XBOX? People are starving all over the world without clean water. What real agony have you experienced? I am guessing you live in the western hemisphere and have A/C, too much food, a place to live and are too lazy to do anything for yourself. Look up the word resiliency and commit to being a self sufficient man.

[@Neptunian65]

That is in my opinion Tori's best performance, she also looks fantastic... before she did her makeover.
