tori Amos live - 5 1/2 Weeks - Riot Poof

[@ciwe-ny5nh]

One of the greatest performances I have ever seen. I love Tori Amos.

[@beneplacito5209]

I already loved the studio version, but this has even more energy. Gorgeous groove and epic coda.

[@bunnybgood411]

Wow. I kind of lost track of Tori after Choirgirl Hotel. Now I'm going back and listening to everything post-Choirgirl. I just discovered this! She has quite the range!

[@BlossomRiotPoof]

She's practically opera singing but she's still kicking ass! How is this possible, you may ask? Well, because she is Tori Amos.

[@duarrdo_g]

That doesn't make sense. Opera singing is just nice.

[@nowapaz6606]

@@duarrdo_g If you think opera is just 'nice' then you know nothing about opera. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYnapGqtgNqWatk

[@MySensualWorld]

@@duarrdo_g ignorant comment! Opera can be full of fire and passion their are thousands of Operas! Tori is not really singing an Opera but Operatically !

[@duarrdo_g]

Oh my god, sometimes I have to remember that people can't understand the syntax of their own language. I was criticizing BlossomRiotPoof for using "but" in his sentence, which implies opposition, like, you can't kick ass if you're singing opera, which I disagreed.

[@mithramusic5909]

Why tf is everyone jumping on Eduardo lmao he's just saying that the original comment makes opera sound like a bad thing even though it isn't!

[@freshlysqueez3d]

This is hands down better than the album version. Can't believe it hasn't been officially released.

[@fuckyou96]

Definitely. This whole concert should be released on cd officially. Disc 1 Tori disc 2 Alanis.

[@RagenRibbonz]

good heavens! i remember her performing this on the 5.5 weeks tour before Venus was released, having no idea what this song was, then repeating that ending tune nonstop in my head so i wouldn’t forget it, and then madly searching the album for this song only to find the recorded version was quite different. this live performance has stuck in my head for years, and so glad to find this! agree with others who have said this NEEDS to be released. has it??

[@RagenRibbonz]

thanks for the upload!! memories!

[@davidmuzquiz1853]

I HAD this burnt into a cd and I REMEMBER GOING CRAZY with it for YEARS. i was in high school at the time. GOOD TIMES.

[@justinsomething]

how freaking amazing is that performance?! talk about a goddess...

[@TheHHCMobile]

This is my favorite version of this song ever. I wish I could’ve been there. She should release this as a DVD for the anniversary

[@RagenRibbonz]

I was there and I think it’s literally the only live song I’ve ever seen, where years later I still vividly remember how I felt hearing it in that moment. And the album wasn’t even released yet-first time I’d ever heard it! Didn’t even know the name. Usually you tolerate the new songs on a tour til you get to know the album. But I was floored by this.

[@jamietingey7498]

I was there. I never forget the live version. It was the best part of the concert.

[@MissMakeDo]

Saaaame.

[@MCgreatestFAN]

perfect groove! shes fantastic both studio and live!!!

[@kupsidedown]

Phenomenal!!! One of my favourite ever songs! Only wish she'd play it live more often, think I'd lose my cool if she played it with me in the audience- I'd geek out completely! :-D Great performance by Tori and the boys :-D

[@istarninwa]

shit, I get goosebumps just looking at this tiny rectangle of a video, I can't imagine what it is to be on her show. ecstatic performance.

[@kurthopkins7393]

I went to only one show of hers.....so far....in my life and that was back in 2007. She still 15 years later sounds amazing!

[@lostjames8758]

Wish there was an HD version of this show it is iconic 😍

[@latnboii]

This was a must see concert

[@RichardHBlumberg]

Matt Chamberlain "THROWING DOWN" a "BRUTALLY CATASTROPHIC" "BAD-ASS GROOVE FROM HELL" Tori Amos, during the "5 1/2 Weeks" Tour"! "Riot Poof"

[@tumblingdown]

So grateful for this video existing in the world...and so jealous that I wasn't at this concert! (being only a mere 13 yr/old at the time).. Boy was I clueless back then.

[@lornagracepoole]

What is that tune that it goes into at 3:47? It's from another song- it's driving me mad cus I can't think what it is!!

[@brentleonards1735]

Lorna Poole its part of the song

[@n8vsprt315]

Though Tori is known for improv on stage mostly when solo, she may improvise with the band as well(that she used @this point in her 🎵-al career, but no longer😢...esp. since I ❤️their 🎵 together better than any other grouping she used outside of her solo work). I think what you may hear as sounding familiar was some of the 🎵used in ”The Rocky Horror Picture Show“ in the melodic form @this juncture of the song. Outside of being a coinkidink this was what I could come up with, not meaning to step on anyone’s toes😇.

[@Aerialgrrl]

It's still the chorus of 'Riot Poof', just arranged differently ("It will all find its way in time")

[@derekmcewen3631]

I can't figure it out. It's not from the studio version. I wish somebody could post the lyrics so I understood better.

[@lornagracepoole]

@@derekmcewen3631 she sings "it will all find it's way in time" BUT the tune is from another song.... 9 years later and I still cant think what!

[@kurthopkins7393]

Does anyone know what show this is from? I mean I know it was from the 5.5 weeks tour but I'm just wondering if it ever was recorded....and I'm not sure so don't curse me out or anything but I thought it was the same ending as the studio version I'm not sure, so I thought I'd just ask....but just me, myself.....I don't get the opera comparison...please don't call me dumb or ignorant....I was just just asking a question I know yall are probably thinking wtf dude, but I'm just not going through getting cursed out by another person just because I have a different opinion 🤷

[@derekmcewen3631]

What is the last part from that's different from the studio version ?

[@ArneZiegfeld]

An improv-part that she played in 99 live. She does that often - enhance songs live. iieee from that time is also roughly double as long as the album-version. Amazing!

[@derekmcewen3631]
