Beautifully said

[@gaufrecht7678]

this woman taps the deepest parts of my emotions that i never knew existed. pure talent!

[@dianeupshaw5337]

I saw her at the State House Convention Center in Little Rock, AR. Probably one of the most moving performances I have ever seen.

[@Michael52176]

I ifirst started listening to her back in middle school in 1990. I'm a pianist, and singer, so she is definitely an example.

[@eclectic.defekted116]

Same here...instant chills and tears from certain songs like "Winter." Juliard threw her out because she supposedly "sat wrong" at the piano. What dumb asses.

[@renatojose6626]

Me too

[@lorenzoorzari4996]

Tori is absolutely stunning, raw and exquisite, on fire! Matt is a thunderstorm on drums, Jon taut then booming on bass --- all so in sync for such power! She slams the hypocrisy of "Christian boys", then at 3:54 when she hits her piano board and calls out those "Grrrrls!" from her depths, so is so breathtaking, charged -- I would follow this Valkyrie into any battle! I could watch this, experience this forever! Lost count how many times I've seen this performance, moves me, hits my core, every moment to the last sonic boom!

[@georgerebic1240]

What year was this

[@NB-lx6gz]

​@@georgerebic1240Before 2005-2007 definitely

[@amymoseley2840]

She got me through those formative high school years 25 years ago... Today she is still just as good. I will forever be a huge fan! Still nothing out there that comes close to touching the talent she posses! Simply Amazing !

[@fembot521]

amy moseley AGREED! Got me through those years. First time ever hearing a female sing about raw stuff in such a deep way masked by beautiful piano music. No one rivals her, then or now!

[@kerrij.6565]

For me it was The Smashing Pumpkins, but I discovered Tori shortly after HS when she came out with Choir Girl. From then on I have been obsessed!

[@Sully365]

I think her writing and expressiveness actually saved lives of desperate people in distress from life(suicides). It has the comforting sound of recognition of one’s own misery and suffering.

[@violet-mp4qf]

absolutely. she is a literal savior to so many people

Matt is such a monster musician. One of the best drummers ever...which is why he plays with Tori of course.

No one even comes close to rivalling her. Imogen Heap is also amazing but Tori is the queen. Most talented soul that ever lived.

Chrissie Hyndes Can take out two of them in a gang fight. She might lose to the third one though. Good top 3 , you can't deny CHRISSIE, though.and then there is Pat Benatar, and my choice for number 1, ANN WILSON from HEART.

Tori, like Jimi Hendrix, has parentage from another planet. Her vocal control on its own is enough to prove that. Add in the KILLER piano at the same time and game over. Simply one of the most gifted and expressive artists ever. Inspired!

[@jillcarter9877]

Don't think there's a more beautiful & talented woman on earth.

Tori looks like she could eat you if you didn't behave yourself.

[@theothersideoftherainbow4547]

This song…. The anger and hurt made into something so hauntingly beautiful 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@pauldemontigny2005]

I wish I could be that microphone. Saw her live in Vancouver when she did her "Plugged" tour for the first time. The energy was amazing. After the concert, I had to drive back home for two hours. Cannot remember what time I got home, but I had to wake up at 4:30 the next day for work. Totally worth it!

[@DianaMartinez-n2f]

Still the most amazing performance of this song that I've ever heard. Tori is The Queen. LUV. When I hear this version, I gave to play it at least three times in a row, loud. The universe was backing her up on this one.

[@SandraTibble]

So I ran faster, but it caught me here Yes, my loyalties turned like my ankle in the seventh grade Running after Billy, running after the rain These precious things Let them bleed, let them wash away These precious things Let them break their hold on me Ahh He said, "You're really an ugly girl But I like the way you play" And I died But I thanked him, can you believe that? Sick, sick Holding on to his picture, dressing up every day I wanna smash the faces Of those beautiful boys Those Christian boys So you can make me come, that doesn't make you Jesus! These precious things Let them bleed, let them wash away These precious things Let them break their hold on me Ahh I remember, yes In my peach party dress No one dared, no one cared to tell me Where the pretty girls are, those demigods With their nine inch nails And little fascist panties tucked inside the heart of every nice girl These precious things Let them bleed, let them wash away These precious things Let them break, let them wash away These, these precious things Let them bleed now, let them wash away These, these precious things Let them break their hold on me Ahh Precious, precious

[@morganlake41632]

As we listened to this album just released and we wept through missing our lost connection - she - R'Leen was the most precious person in my life...one of the most preciosu people to ever walk this earth - i loved her so and still she tried to kill herself 4 times and maybe i was the catalyst for the father wound torturing her...but could not stop the fall from grace... we fell to this song - can you feel it, can you? The most Precious woman who ever lived..

[@waifusam4790]

Big fan of whatever this is. A poem? A retelling of a memory? A thought, or emotion conjured by the pain of this angry song?

[@georgerebic1240]

24 years ago I met a woman named Sara Hollister in an open mic at the Brass Ass bar in Chicago. We were instant buddies and soon we realized both of us loved Tori. I'm a pianist and singer and so was she. We soon began working on Tori songs with me on piano and her singing. I provided harmony on almost every word. We wanted to CSN her songs and we sounded like angels when we sang together. She was involved with men, none of which loved her the way she needed and her bandmates (she always sang in bands, writing her own music) didnt want to help her pursue her dream. I was not the best musical partner either. I was caught up with my own stuff. She had been drinking regularly, very heavily, for many years and one night in 2007, I said to her, "Sara, you dont drink like the others, are trying to Janis yourself?" She replied "is there anything else you want to ask me?" I said no, and from that moment on I knew what her goal was. In 2012, she mixed our Tori demo by herself without me and I was livid. I didnt speak to her again until 2017 spring. We had phone conversations until June. On the 15th, a friend called me and asked if I'd seen sara. I said I talked to her on the phone a few days ago and he said "you need to see her right now. She's in hospice." I thought to myself, she finally did it. I told him I had a gig at the piano bar that night. I felt she would want me to go to it. That night I felt like two people playing and singing. The next day me and a friend went to see her. The visitors log had a thousand names on it. She had so many friends. We spent 8 hours with her at the hospice unit. The next morning, her boyfriend called me and said "Sara left the building at 9:25 am." It was Sunday, June 17th, 2017. Tori brought us together and we stayed friends for 20 years playing her music together. THANK YOU TORI! Sara and George.

Has anyone noticed she is Leo sun sign? This performance looks like a lioness and her pride playing music. I like, but I'm not sure if to feel seduced, scared or heart warmed

[@AJTV1957]

For me it is a recent and late discovery. She is unique. She inspires a mix of fascination for her music with falling in love with her physique, her mannerisms and her energy.

[@luku22]

She played such an important part of my young life in the 90s. Better late than never! Her music transcends time.

The greatest performer!

[@Babykitten6]

I got into Tori when I was about 14 years old, was lucky to see her live when I was 17, then fell out of touch when my musical tastes evolved slightly during uni, however, at 46, I am dying to see her again live, I have been following close up footage of her on the internet for a while, her magic on stage, she is absolutely gorgeous, so sexy in every single interpretation of her songs, she puts her mark on every song to make it unique, such a powerful musician bringing the piano to the forefront with rock, not your classic rock n' roll band, but my god, she's amazing, her voice is exquisite, such a creative woman/artist/singer/songwriter. Her first 3 albums are true genius works of art. Just wish she would come back to Australia, it's been 30 years!!!

[@Clarisse-qg4kp]

Lucky❤

[@EricGoetzMusic]

You might enjoy Ocean to Ocean. It's my favorite album of hers in a very long time. In any case, I hope you get to see her again. Saw her at Chateau San Michelle at the tail end of her last tour, and she was as incredible as ever. Leaves everything on the stage. Huge amount of respect for her as a performer, feminist, and a role model for performers everywhere. Such a wise soul.

[@sirulrichvonlichtenstein4851]

Not dissing the generations that followed, but no one can quite write a piano riff as hauntingly beautiful as Tori. Made me put on my headphones... then I came.

I bought a tape of hers back in the early 90s and it had this song as well as Winter. I loved her style then and love it now. The sound she gets from her piano is lovely. She has a unique beautiful voice. She sings difficult songs that others would struggle with. She owns it.

[@barbararenton8009]
