Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles [live in New York City]

Live footage of the debut single A Thousand Miles off Vanessa Carlton's Be Not Nobody album.

[@aboutface102]

Everyone talking bout the drummer, nobody about how amazing her voice is live

[@yuberdota]

Lol, it is given

[@sinhueherrera8984]

Hmm I don’t think it’s that great, yes it does sound good but some of her pronunciation is just bad, and her tongue sounds retracted at some parts but that seems to be more for style

[@tayloralisonswift9544]

@@sinhueherrera8984 That's not bad, those were meant to be pronounced in that way to add more styles. If you think her singing voice is bad because of that then you are idi0t.

[@Alix777.]

She has a very good voice but it's pretty generic, with Britney-like inflexions sometimes. This is not a bad thing, this is just not that special.

[@madouzo1423]

Nobody talks about how amazing she is

[@petergardner3231]

The guy behind the drum kit is an absolute machine! The performance by the whole band is fantastic but I especially enjoyed his work 🤘🏻

[@crunchingcolors]

Nate Morton is the drummer. he is currently the house drummer on NBC's the voice!

[@carreviewer6345]

Which year is this in? Judging by the candels I'd think it's a tribute to the victims of 9/11

[@anthonynichols5266]

Beautiful performance

[@SlowJoman]

one of the most underrated tracks of the last 15 years

[@jboao]

SlowJoman How? It’s literally still so popular and praised.

[@andyd6338]

@@jboao a lot of people just hear it as a fun pop song but don't appreciate the construction

[@luisfelipeorozco7534]

Underrated??? It was that year's most played song and went on to win awards. The official video has more views than other songs that were just as popular if not more.

[@beelzeboss9631]

@@luisfelipeorozco7534 don't forget that everyone has a soft spot for this song, I always throw it on at a party

She is a great piano player and an awesome singer!

Sacred comment

[@DaffierPig6843]

Pretty mid piano player but good singer

[@jamesreza7939]

Nate Morton on drums. Absolute monster.

[@lars5174]

He reminds me of Manu Katche. Was gonna ask if it's him! The drums are fuckin awesome

[@kertaspaper94]

The drum in this song is just as epic as the piano

[@gustavocarlos8705]

This drummer is the great Nate Morton... he's playing in The Voice... absolutely amazing...

[@tarzangrant123]

I really watch this only because he’s killing it on the drums and he’s the only one who plays the song amazingly

[@rickylopezve]

@@tarzangrant123 the original Drummer for the record was Abe Laboriel but Nate was amazing in this performance.

[@user-uv6yv2cs7s]

What a tempo!!

[@sanjuro66]

It's so refreshing seeing a gathering of performers, that really know what they are doing.

[@joselegaspi2549]

I finally found this live version with a full band, damn, that took long enough.

[@jipseebree2537]

Oh my god! THAT DRUMMING IS AMAZING!!

[@XXLRebel]

Wow... i'm a metalhead and not a fan of popmusic in general but dammm. Her voice and pianoplaying are on f-ing point. Not to mention the drummer who is killing it. Both are in perfect tune with eachother. Even more insane when you think this is a debut. Perfect👌

[@michaelcochran9685]

Same here

[@vicentecontrerassoux1660]

This might be the quintessential metal to pop ballad pipeline, just by virtue of the instrumental being so damn intense… I love it!

me too very amazing song

[@iClone316]

I LOVE the way she says "crowd" at 0:30 , she doesn't pronounce it like that in any other version of the song

[@jordanbarney8629]

I always loved the way she says it in the original recording, and when I heard her sing it that way right here it was so satisfying.

[@lauracorbett4577]

FrankGarrett316 She sounds different when she sings this song live than she does in the music video

[@roiq5263]

She says growd

this is an amazing live performance by Vanessa her voice is amazing live , what a beautiful song & beautiful woman.

[@danallery8207]

the youthfulness and innocence in this track brings a tear to the eye

She's so cute and beautiful 🥰

[@zip1899]

Even better than the studio version !!

[@kenanyap]

I would have to agree!

[@itousasala3074]

The drums to this song gives it a nice edge.

[@kattyegerm]

One of the best songwriter of all times! I know this is a pop singer and her songs are the rare pop songs I like, cause the arrangements and lyrics are always amazing!! And she is one of the best pianist I’ve ever heard so she is really an idol to me! I wish I had her hands and her talent to write songs!!

[@angelinabest2673]

you know i love her voice very talented

[@robertleary8301]

Yes, not interested in white chic connections etc, just listening to excellent voice and band,!!!!!!!

[@sirmarkkevin954]

Quarantine music!!! Still one of the best pop.

[@mikehartigan1694]

This performance is fire!!

[@greenmachine_keviv]

That piano intro is just killer.

[@prisonmike4971]

The drums are so on point in this. I'm not a pop guy but this song is beyond all that. I have yet to meet a person that hates this tune.

[@cpace4031]

I hear this song daily on the Playlist at my job. I've loved this song since I saw the video years ago!

[@ives3572]

This song takes me back to my early childhood years (this was the first song that I've ever heard and got stuck on to) that I'd always love to go back to but sadly I'll never get to go back to ever again.

This has to be my favorite performance of A Thousand Miles

Vanessa and Nate and the rest of this set is a wonderful listen and then some more.

[@Brehon99]

Very very good arrangement. Percussion superb.

[@Cmdrcheswee]

Just so amazing... all of them, would love to be that good on a piano one day

[@robertharker]

Vanessa's piano playing is what grabs me. Very similar to Bruce Hornsby. Simple with nice sonic space around her playing.

[@builtonstruggle1]

glad there's a bunch of comments about the drummer cause it's the first thing i noticed too. the dude is awesome. kinda can't believe i'm even listening to this song since it's nothing close to what i normally listen to, but hey even lovers of the most extreme music can like a few soft songs here and there and this is actually pretty good

[@audballrundgren4582]

this is on my top ten list. u rock sooo much!

Making my way downtown Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound Staring blankly ahead Just making my way Making a way through the crowd And I need you And I miss you And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you tonight It's always times like these when I think of you And wonder if you ever think of me 'Cause everything's so wrong, and I don't belong Living in your precious memory 'Cause I need you And I miss you And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? Oh, 'cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you tonight And I, I don't wanna let you know I, I drown in your memory I, I don't wanna let this go I, I don't Making my way downtown Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound Staring blankly ahead, just making my way Making a way through the crowd And I still need you And I still miss you And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass us by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you, oh-oh If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you If I could just hold you tonight

Seen her years ago open up for the Goo Goo Dolls and Third Eye Blind and i came away very impressed with her drummer ,,, he was beating the hell out of the skins during her set ,,, i thought his drum kit was going to fall over cause he was beating them so hard ,,,, he is much tamer in this video ,,,
