Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles - 2002-03-05

[@jeffchacon5781]

Clearly no auto tune, just authentic raw singing, very nice.

[@incognito-p9c]

lip sync

[@tinlian8103]

@@incognito-p9c it isn't how can she do lipsync when the instruments are live itself?

[@_BirdOfGoodOmen]

@@tinlian8103 just have the recording go into the soundboard and out into the airwaves instead of the instruments, but probably wouldnt have been the case here. She can play her own stuff, this sounds different from the record version and boy if it was found she was lip synching... well, look at what happened to Mili Vanilli

[@stanbalo]

Totally live. Anyone can tell the.difference

[@VENGEFULHEXX]

@@_BirdOfGoodOmen this would be the most pathetic lip syncing of all time because live or prerecorded it's really not that good lol

[@TheRedRaven_]

You have no idea how hard it is to play piano and sing at the same time while keeping the tempo. Really impressive, I didn’t know she did her own piano work.

[@kiuk_kiks]

There’s a documentary on KZbin about it. It was almost entirely hers.

[@MakeMeThinkAgain]

I was thinking the same thing. This was so much better than the original video.

[@stanbalo]

The whole song is really hers..Ron Fair just polished it.

[@brodriguez5057]

People always say that, but as a musician I in fact do know hard it is. 😁

[@TheRedRaven_]

@@brodriguez5057 Same, I was in a band back in the day (lead guitar) so I had some experience. Anyone I see playing an instrument while singing always impresses the hell out of me. It’s very, very difficult.

This song has been memed really hard and it’s kind of a shame. It’s a really beautiful song.

[@simonster-9094]

people usually meme stuff cause they like it. Not surprised.

[@nightvisiongoggles]

People who fell in love with this when it came out laugh at memes of this song, but fond memories and nostalgia drown out any humor memes bring.

[@ruben1million]

This song was great way before meme came up. Trends will come and go but this song will always be remembered..as a b*tch to play in piano if you’re just a beginner.

[@dvalin.]

It’s my favorite song and for some random reason I get offended by the memes maybe people who make memes target old songs idk

[@GracieMations]

This song will always be my favourite, it connects me with my grandma who passed before I was born. I always feel her with me when listening to it,

I will never forget when my school's morning show came on and they played only the instrumental to this song and everyone in class broke out singing this song it was great and magical moment that you only imagine in the films

[@stanbalo]

Love! This song is truly a crowd favorite whether you really love it or love it bec of White Chicks. Vanessa even if this is her only hit should be so proud of her achievement. This is a classic that will be forever played on radio and would gain fans every generation

[@supertruckertom]

Had a moment like that myself on the bus riding back to the school after a football game we had won. I was a Junior in High School and player offensive line. Everyone was exhausted and half asleep but me. I started off humming in a a band without instruments the opening to ZZ Top, La Grange. Another guy, Russ Lee, had a pencil or two and started tapping the rhythm. When the Bass line hit the entire team was doing it and Gregg Pruitt, Team Captain, hit the vocals. It was awesome. We were winners. The 80's.

[@agramsci]

1) She is gorgeous. 2) I love this song. 3) I wonder...was she nervous? Was this a big thing for her? What did it mean in her career? I remember this night--yeah, I'm that old. This was in that VC/Michelle Branch sweet spot when women were singer/songwriters and not just objects. She has immense talent and I wonder...

[@thischarminglovehound2376]

And Avril haha

[@lucasargandona4658]

she's not nervous. She's just a little camera shy

[@freddychopin]

Oh yeah, she was absolutely nervous. And this was probably one of her first major appearances--only 20-something days after the single dropped and became a smash hit. Her vocals are notably tense and a little less accurate than what she's clearly capable of. Nonetheless an excellent performance, and totally endearing.

[@stanbalo]

I think this is her first televised performance

[@MonMon-qu5cd]

I love it when musicians on the background were just kind of like having fun playing for somebody else and just rockin' their own instrument. I mean, they look like they're just havin' a good time regardless if they get credit or not.

Pretty rare when the live performance is technically "better" than the studio version.... She lives that song when she's playing it.... and takes you there with her... she gets lost in the story...Then you get lost in your own thoughts.... That makes you want to hear it 1000 more times.....

[@oneshot_pacatt]

Whats crazy is i think she even rushed the tempo from the original one and still nailed it 😳 Woman has insane talent😳👀👀🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@czubai]

Immediately noticed that as well and I was scared about how will she keep up :D But she did flawlessly. Was probably a bit nervous, that usually causes rushing. Or was it intentional for some reason? Hell knows lol My OCD demanded that I check exactly what happened - studio version is ~95 bpm, here they're going 100 bpm. At least at the start, then they seem to slow down a bit. Definitely sounds like more to me, probably because of the intense playing in the intro.
