If i where blind and deaf and god gave me one chance to hear and see for a short time i would want to hear and see tori her music makes you think about life and her beauty makes you instantly fall in love with her.

[@BrittnyShrub]

It's so beautiful to see her playing this song. She's come through so much and grown so much from the suppressed and fragmented girl who wrote that song. It's so encouraging. It's hard to remember that there was a time when Tori hadn't found her voice. Beautiful.

[@jrm7170]

How beautiful her voice is !♡

[@BoysForPele1989]

Okay, equating her physical appearance with her internal psychology is sexisxt and something she critiques in her musis. I have grown up with her as well and I have never lost sight of that fiery powerful figure, The Goddess is reinvigorated with every album.

[@dancebrought2u]

This song saved me in middle school....and still does. love you tori!

[@PhilippeM]

tori playing on a Steinway piano ! :) That's a sight you don't see everyday....

[@IM2PersonalProblems]

She writes(obviously from her heart), performs(you try it) here flawlessly and continues despite juvenile criticisms. I guess someday her audience will grow up someday and be pissed off when someone makes a MegaHit out of one of her songs. Lets all grow a little and appreciate The Music, The Writer and The Performance. I've never heard this song before. It is a great piece of "WORK" I will be listening to Tori!

[@jackies1198]

Who else looked up this song after hearing a remake in the credits of Season 2, episode 3 of a Discovery of Witches? Still so good 28(?) years later. ❤️

[@viillpp]

I think not many people have ever thought about this. Glad to read your opinion. You´re so right, this is so true...

[@gumborific]

I agree. I saw her after her first album came out, by herself with a baby grand piano, in a small theater in NYC. She played almost every song differently than it was composed on the album, and even played Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit. It was awesome. With her raw passion and talent, she could have played Mary Had a Little Lamb and I would have been completely blown away. She taught me enough about women to make me worthy of my wife some years later. Thanks Tori!

[@littledagny]

Tori is still so beautiful. It's amazing how these old songs just come back to life.

[@MissTerri1979]

Her songs are so well sung/written that, you feel like her songs are about you, at that very moment.

[@teijatuulia]

like teardrops... she makes her pianos sing among her.

[@Imdone767]

She only looks different because of the wig. Her features are exactly the same and her wisdom increases along with her talent. I met her on this last tour and she is an amazing person! And Beautiful in person too.

[@franzsrr]

I haven't seen her for a while on screen. Her look has considerably changed in recent years. She's got still an amazing voice, but I think I liked her live performances more in the older days.

[@actressinny]

Favorite Tori Amos song. Also: with that hair she's just BEGGING for elf ears; tell me if I'm wrong.

[@billyskorupski9529]

She’s the absolute best

[@bigWILLfrmus]

That felt intimate.

[@spiritosa0123]

This song will never leave me

[@r5768]

wow still awesome after all these years

[@thevocalmaster]

Fellows, it's her song. She can do whatever she wants to with it.

[@jawsmm2nd]

This song ... time ... of making music was a turning point in her life......Tori is simply genius....few of us can allow our true music come from within ....when dealing with record...or recording studios..companies....Tori ...did it....this song and CD...sorry..RECORD...did it for her.......she is simply............AMAZING....THANK YOU TORI

[@Car2Bird]

this song is way beautiful i loved it and now im soo going tocarry it with me in my heart

[@actressinny]

Favorite Tori Amos song.

[@bikeboy6674]

Wow - utterly mesmerising. An amazing song and performance.

[@MJF40]

love the hair ! Tori rocks

[@momma_goose]

What a talent 🤭🙂✌️

[@justifymylove]

One of my favorite songs by her... her hair looks beautiful... she's sooo pretty.

[@bigdsears]

brings back good memories

[@iankyoko]

I saw at the Sydney Opera House just recently. I think her makeup and wig is mainly for a stage getup. I think all that getup works well on stage. I think in a large concert hall it helps to project something extra to the audience. On stage she is so successful at capturing your attention.

[@Whatif666]

she's always awesome

[@bexmyxescapex]

this is a lovely version.

[@teddypantelas]

great performance.

[@curtainmunch]

BEAUTIFUL.

[@mickenoss]

It's a shame she doesn't perform it with the simplicity and purity of the original, I prefer the album version and would love to see her perform it like this.

[@Jesus_in_the_Coliseum]

Just amazing, Tori Amos is so amazing!

[@Mgptheoriginal]

One of the best music vid's I have ever seen.

[@hellogoodbye0214]

I love Tori, she's like a little Folkloric character in this.

[@orangexlemon]

she's so beautiful!!

[@stan7764ify]

💗 she is the best.

[@bretellis]

Come on, the sign of a good artist is being able to perform their material in different ways. Otherwise it can get boring, imagine how they feel playing their songs the same over and over, they are not going to do it exactly the same just to please those people who want to here it as it originally was. This is a great performance.

[@SturmFee1988]

She was so beautiful before her operations.....now she just looks like everyone else...

[@IIIIIIIZIIIIIII]

Love the pauses, love the wig Tori Rocks ;)

[@hawkj50]

wow i just discovered you..tori amos wow ,,wonderful..i play music also and you have lifted my soul..thank you..i am you newest best fan...john jhawk

[@EphemeralProductions]

Well I personally think the way she "changed it up" on this one sounds GREAT. :)

[@angelmariex]

she loves that piano

[@kogepansanx]

Tori Amos is going to be a LEGEND!

[@Aishikyo]

i love her new hair so much! great song

[@fubar50cat]

always wondered what tori would look like with straight hair, and here is my answer. Beautiful, as is the song. Just listen to the lyrics, like all of her songs, they are heartwrenchingly brilliant , poignant, and somewhat obtuse. And the voice is to fall in love with.

[@mclineohio]

Best.Troll.Ever.... I'd love to hear back from you to find out if you are awesome, crazy, or crazy awesome

[@PappyCaligula]

Kylie Minogue and company used to put on a helluva production. AND she wasn't "ManDonna" or Shitney. The worst thing that happened controversy-wise was she got sick. That being said, her time has come and gone too..Her USA tour had it's moments, but was overall, not worth the wait for all her loyalists. I have grown-up and moved on. Talent like Marie Digby come to mind. What a LOVELY, talented singer!. NOW that is a GODDESS!

[@duhustink]

she looks to pop now. i miss the old tori.

[@belovedfly]

gorgeous!

[@clayryan1196]

Man I love her. One of a kind

[@moudiwort]

love to listen to this voice

[@MarilynFilth]

Actually I couldn't care less what she looks like, her music and her words mean more than shallow people's opinions of her!

[@PappyCaligula]

I gave you a thumbs up for your comment because it's one , if not THE only intelligent response to what I have said. You're completely justified in challenging my contentions and I welcome it. You "thought" about what you wrote and thats the key of WHY I'm here. To challenge people to actually listen and "view" the whole package that is "Victoria Amos". ,,,,Victoria admits she uses her music as her means to communicate her social and political ideology. She WANTS to get inside... (continued)

[@fermata18]

I wish it did in the industry. :-(

[@TioPew]

Dont know why are you talking like this, I loved it ¬¬

[@paulgribbon]

This is just awesome...... Why is it that some people just want performers to do an exact copy of the recorded version? If that's what you're after, put on a CD. If you want excitement and innovation, watch live music.

[@danieljohnfleet]

Quite possibly her best.God,I know she has to kiss like a live vibration.

[@andrebreton4]

I think Tori has never been "confused" about her music.

[@musicmad2020]

i loved that :)

[@panayiotis131]

No, you are not the only one. I hear you mate...

[@leonard511619]

have no ideea why but this send's me in my childhood srrry for my english

[@LucifersTreasure]

@PappyCaligula First of all her name isn't victoria, her baptism name is Myra Ellen Amos, I've read your comments and I honestly don't know what you're trying to achieve here, tori can be the biggest witch on earth, still, she's healing people through music and her NGO, what are YOU doing to make the world a better place? oh yeah, leaving ignorant comments on youtube, very smart mr. wikipedia.

[@Katastr0phic_Katicorn]

@Fylth I agree. How are we, the audience, suppose to sing along when it's soooo different!!! ARGH!

[@sachcr]

i love her new hair

[@ohsinnaman]

i don't get why you think it's pretentious. that's how she's performed all the time. i think it's kind of her thing...i really like it.

[@BeaKejsely]

[@ninaprice6471]

magic.

[@shuttervox]

damn... she still looks good.

[@incredadele]

wow. she has definitely not had surgery, champ. WOW. to that and everything else you said.

[@L0ver0se]

Its hard 4 somethin else to distract me from watching her ^^

[@khayerei05]

she looks more like Lady Gaga here.. i want to see her whole face, she looks different here (looks like asian cosplay) but still she is pretty.. and the meaning of the song.. its just.."WOW" her talent never fades.

[@sleslie23]

Amen! I think this is an awesome version. A little disturbing, but very interesting.

[@julezz008]

this is music dude...

[@LucifersTreasure]

@PappyCaligula Every musician has a message it doesn't mean that they are indoctrinating anyone, tori message has been quite strong through her career and it's not about hate, it's about unity, recognizing that both, male and female are important and that they have to work together to create a whole, in order to spread her message she uses her femininity to expose the other side, the female, if anything tori is making people question our society.

[@clopsii]

in their own way, all music is good, but every person has a type of music which mostly appeals to them. why do people argue about which is better? Can't they stop for a second and appreciate someones work instead of offending the people who may have strong memories linking to the music- like i heard this song when my grandad died and someone saying this music is shit is, well.........

[@luked1964]

@inmytimeofdieing2 yup your absolutly right. thx

[@monroeboy80]

Somehow after watching this performance I don't think the singer Tori would be able to play this song just as good if she had somebody playing the piano and she was singing. It's as if the two have to go together to perform and she wouldn't feel the same if she was not playing the piano along with her singing.

[@NintendoFanGirl]

This is a really good look for her.

[@RichRobinson]

I love this song but I'm not quite feeling how shes playing it on this vid... maybe its just me? The chord progressions are just divine! Is that an Audix that she's singing into? Any geeks in the house? Cheers, Rich

[@PappyCaligula]

Thanks for the acknowledgement and I agree with the bigger fish analogy. BUT where I"m coming from is to stop some bad things happening, the seed must be stopped from being planted to avoid bigger issues later on. It's hard to explain but it's an acquired knowledge thing that must come with time. I can say definatively, I KNOW that Vicky isn't just expressing a different way to view things. She is actively trying to endoctrinate to think HER way/follow her. The Elitism is totally on her part.

[@Cornelius71176]

"So you found a girl Who thinks really deep thougts What's so amazing about really deep thoughts..."

[@1DavidMarshall]

@muminfly TORI AMOS HAS DEPTH WITH HER MUSIC . AND MASS EMOTION. SHE BUEATIFUL WOMAN.

[@PappyCaligula]

See how her cult of followers are. You're very neutral, a valid observation, and they slam dunk you!. Don't let that discourage you. Keep on hammering. Some will grow up, and the others will bleed to death from their self-cutting frenzies. We can only hope... It only means you're winning..Nothing wrong with sticking with your guns and calling Shat for what it IS!.

[@sonicjoydivisonswans]

It's a bit slower that's all. I like more this way. I know I can't play my songs the same way all the time as I get bored by it. so I think it's cool what she did here.

[@smashingela]

@Fylth agreed! but still makes me cry :)

[@xiamengbaby]

Though I can't often handle listening to a whole cd of hers because she gets too moody or whatever, she is very good. She has a lot of talent. Just think how popular she could be if she just wrote dancy pop tunes and waltzed around the stage wearing a fish net, saran wrap, beef steak and a couple of champagne glasses on her boobs!

[@charlyluissss]

@whiteeye212 Because she calls the piano " my girlfriend " and she loves it !

[@GoodSoulDept]

ooookkkkkaaaaay! =)

[@EphemeralProductions]

It's Tori. She's weird and very eccentric, quite honestly. At least that's my opinion, based off of what I've seen. BUT, she is an incredible singer and great song-writer! THAT cannot be denied!

[@justshutupification]

@Fylth gaga isn't clone. she has a strong voice and style. c'mon people watch her performance before talk and hate.

[@segismundo77]

She was SO much better at the beginning of her career... She even sang better then. What a pity.

[@chancesare]

Most beautiful woman alive that's not my mom ^.^

[@eikiebe]

yer thats it she does look like a fairy or a pixie like,her beauty is very other worldly maybe she is a mermaid!

[@msfrankie]

@Isakceim yeah...that makes the two of us......

[@yancybutler]

@AC3DC And thats why shit is on the radio today. that attitude.

[@lolaleigh77]

This video is so funny to see because you can tell it was from a time when they were to trying to pigeon-hole her as a pop artist. Which she totally is not. That's why we, at least I, love her. This seems so ....off. But a great thing to see from a music history perspective. :) Also, this is almost 20 years old!!! Holy Mother, I feel old.
