  • hehe they editied the "shit" bit out....

    :)

  • I'm sure there are some people here that would give you a thumbs down for your opinion.

  • i love you and your song gravity!!!

  • Wow. Thanks Sara. You ever want to put your toes in the sand for a few days and go sailing, come on down to St Barths. There is always an open berth aboard. You might be surprised at the musical scene too=)

  • sara is so pretty! I wish i was as pretty as her.. :O

  • LOVE her!!!!!

  • Never get tired of Sara's album............

  • I love the DVD (and the CD). I listen to the CD (almost) every day and it never get bored!!

  • Why so many stupid comments on great vid? thumbs down for you.

  • In the storee, daaa!!

  • The Blu-Ray of this must be excellent.

    That whole concert on a blu-ray disc that could easily fit on a DVD, and then some, all that and a bag of potato chips. Perhaps they'll include those up-and-close face shots that everybody's so fond of...

  • I lul'd...

    Teabagging, that's what they call it...

  • she's like the "girl" jason mraz!

  • As if that's what we needed...

    "Open up your eyes, and see like me"

    A) I don't need to share your philosophy, Nazi,

    B) That's a little snub, is it not?

    C) What is it that I'm missing that you have so much of in your artistic vision

    D) That vocal break down sounds too much like the Beatles 'Rocky Racoon' and then doo-wop...

  • a huh...

    u really like to resond to comments randomly don't u?

  • Likewise. =]

  • I love Sara's style, beautifully written music. :)

  • Is that a rhetorical question...

    You reply, I check my inbox...

    You replied, no, I merely am on a different side of the fence than you...

    To come here and reply with a sudden appreciation of this artist would be, a little silly...

  • There's a simple explanation:

    He's a unique species of human called a "douche bag." They're indigenous on six continents and feed mostly on other people's happiness, which they ultimately regurgitate as anger, hate and a general feeling of antipathy for non-douche bags. They have a particular distaste for the arts, betterment groups and people that are succeeding in life. They have a unique ability to camouflage their anger as simply a "differing opinion."

    Fascinating species. Fascinating.

  • Neither can you, funny how that works.

    I suppose only one side gets to stick to the argument.

    Now you're arguing about me, and not your side of the argument.

    Who's wasting time now?

  • What argument am I retarded for for winning here, I was "debating".

    It takes me 1 minute, to reply to my inbox.

    How could I "supposedly hate", anyone?

    This is by far, the most ludicrous, of things, I have ever heard...

    I pursue my interests, merely not at 2'o-clock, AM...

    I had no idea you liked SB (nice abrvtn), maybe that's why you're (you're) "arguing" with me...

  • Smart person alert...

  • Gracious...

  • Yes, I made 3 posts, and I made multiple accounts to stop you, from talking about me not being able to reply from my inbox, did you have any help with those posts, they were really well written.

    Would you like to start from scratch, or do you want me to assist you to the end of this argument. :]

  • Hmm, odd, I don't remember calling anyone a douche-bag, that would contradict with your definition on wanting Mr. Nice Guy...

    Distaste for the arts, yes, quite quite, that's why I'm commenting about music.

    People that are succeeding in life are great.

    People that market for the mere point of being marketable are not...

  • That was classic! One of the best posts I have ever read :)

  • and for the matter, I could repeat "love" through a whole song, and claim that that song was about potatoes...

    It doesn't make it any more relevant...

  • BigCheese, you do realize that Bottle it Up's chorus, "I do it for love" is about what she does. She writes songs and sings them because she loves to do it. NOT because her record company wants her to.

  • How many times are people going to ask me this...

    How many times am I gonna reply with: "She wrote a love song anyway"

    Thus makes her a hypocrite...

    The fact that she informs us she doesn't want to provide a love type song for her record company, and, on that same label, provides love songs, is beyond me...

    She may have written it for anyone that she wished to, but that's not her label...

  • Likewise, Sara Bareilles is pretty laughable... =]

  • Haha. x2

  • She wrote a song about not wanting to write a certain type of song, and could have actually written one in that amount of time,

    In the same time, she writes Bottle It Up, basically a love song, I don't care what you say it is about, but somebody got their love song...

    Marketing's great, marketing with Winter themes in the winter time is a bit, obvious?

  • no no no bigcheese you got it all wrong man

    she's not writing love songs because they asked for them, she's writing them because SHE WANTS to.

    SO THEREFOR

    not a hypocrit

  • Doesn't matter much, she writes them anyway...

    If I can make a sandwich and my friend wants one, I'm not gonna be a dick and not make that sandwich for my friends, make one for myself, and then complain about the inconvenience...

    Especially when she puts a song about not wanting to do a song, which could spare me the redundancy, on her CD...

    Bottle It Up speaks for itself, I think...

    She is trying to market, just look, DVD, Blu-Ray, Winter song

  • some people like sara bareilles, some people don't. we can all write comment on what we think of her and her music. so people who like her shouldn't take it so personally that some people write comments that we don't agree with. everyone can state their opinion, and everyone can debate on it. even though debating about sara's music isn't going to change one's opinion, it is not completely pointless. i really like to see the different opinions on music.

  • +1, my good friend...

  • i saw the love song hd trailer on psn and now i reaaalllly want this blu-ray.

    p.s. you're gorgeous!

  • why don't we all just stop arguing over this video- it's kind of stupid on all parts to be honest.

  • perhaps, but what is stupid is, A, it's not arguing, it's debating, B, I'm arguing, or stupid because I check my inbox, C, I'm unfavorable because I have a difference of opinion, or D, Sara Bareilles is truly a hypocrite who's second single, and possibly others, was entirely a love song...

  • i'm getting the dvd for christmas. can't wait!!

  • shes amazing i love her songs and her voice x

  • i've been reading the posts you've been making for, oh, weeks now. why do you take all this time to completely bash one person's work? why even spend all the time worrying over what her work is like? i'm surprised you have so much time. just don't listen or complain- make something better if it bothers you so much.

  • Did you write that all by yourself or did you have some help copying these types of comments from the other members... or did you just wait for the smoke to clear...

  • get a life.

  • that seems like a pretty bold statement.

    in that trivial amount of time you could have: come up with an argument to my debate, told sara how much time she's wasted by NOT writing a love song, nor any song, writing bottle it up right after that, and I could have avoided my inbox...

  • sara bareilles' music and lyrics to "one sweet love" inspired me to write poetry.

  • This is an excellent DVD ! Great job Sara! Come to Canada !!! You have TONS of fans here and you've only been here a couple of times that I know of.. and its been in like Toronto, it would be great if you could come to the Maritimes!! Keep up the great work !

    as you like to say..

    love and peace,

    hannah :)

  • I LOVE HER TO DEATH!!

  • I love Sara Bareilles' simplicity. She never overdoes it. Her talent is completely natural and she's so easy to identify with. While I think Love Song is overplayed, it's still better than 90% of the crap that's on the radio right now.

  • She does overdo it, by blasting a message of love all over people's ears, with her simple piano melodies. My friend, NOTHING on the radio, is any good right now, and can not even be beaten by this crap, which is already on the radio anyway.

    430,000 words in the dictionary.

    Try one that's not love.

    21+ love songs in the top 40, since 1992.

    Marketing, money, I'd like to be rich, wouldn't you?

  • Since the beginning of time, there have been hundreds of millions of pieces of music, literature, etc. dedicated to the word "love." If she's nothing but money hungry, then I guess we could conclude that Austen and Bach were as well. Were she to get too heavy handed with synonyms, she'd sound forced and pretentious. Love Song is overplayed, I'll give you that, but Gravity and City haven't recieved any play and they're common favorites among fans.

  • Futhermore, you seem to be nothing more than a broken record, looking for the best possible comment to refute so you can use more dazzling logic to make yourself seem superior to both Sara Bareilles and anyone who dares to become a fan. Music is so subjective that nothing can be verified as "fact." However, most would conclude that in contrast to the overly-digitized, body-flaunting harlots selling records, Sara is a breath of fresh air.

  • Who is to say Bach wasn't a money hungry composer, he was famous, wasn't he? I'm not saying DON'T play for money, like I said, I'd like to be rich, like the next person, don't expect me to gig without money. She'd sound pretentious using fresh words? She sounds pretentious, now, as it is, she has about five songs with the word love in them. Love Song, Bottle It Up, Fairytale (a love song), One Sweet Love, My Love, Love on the Rocks, give her songs to the radio, and they as well, will be burnt.

  • So, it is wrong to comment on her?

    Remember this, Brittney Spears has sold millions of records, and, surprisingly, has been receiving wonderful reviews at the get go, does that make her a wonderful artist?

  • I think you're completely missing my point. Virtually every artist has used the word love in one context or another. Unchained Melody, The Rose, and other classic favorites use the word "love" many times. To critcize her because she uses the word "love" is like criticizing a cinematographer because he shoots in color. If she's pretentious and cheap becauses she uses love to sell music, then I suppose every other artist in the last few hundred years is pretentious and cheap as well.

  • I think it is noting like that.

    Using one word out of 430,000 is black and white.

    Colored cinema would be the use of a world of words...

    Yeah, pretty much, love is a cheap selling point, since the beginning of time.

    There are more fond emotions than just this one.

    Why would I care about what she loves, or whom?

    Needn't to say, there are more than one love song, why be unoriginal and make another one?

  • Agreed. "Gravity" has been my favorite song of hers since I heard it the first time... Which, trust me, was well before "Little Voice" came out.

  • If you knew anything about Sara or her music, you'd know that that's exactly what "Love Song" is about. She didn't write it to become rich. It's not so direct that it can't be enjoyed by everyone, but this song was written to her record company - who wouldn't release her album without a "love song" - something they believed they could turn into a single.

  • Love Song is about not wanting to write about one. Why write a song about not wanting to write about a type of song that you have. She has had about five of these types of songs (love songs), and she didn't want to write one to the label, but she wrote on for somebody. And if she is willing to come up with that many, why not one extra for her label, either that, or suck it up, and leave the label?

  • Are you kidding me right now? Have you even LISTENED to half the songs on her album? You're an idiot. God damn. Do your research for a change instead of making assumptions about a successful artist.

  • I've read the lyrics.

    Half of the songs on there are love songs.

    Where was your research?

  • Alright so? Most songs out there are about love. Is that your grand point? Do you not like love or something? I'm just curious. I think her music is great and that's an opinion. No need to broadcast to the world that you hate love and people who sing about it. I mean I don't understand what the big deal is here. I didn't think this was a huge deal until I scrolled down to find my comment and found tons of arguments all going back to you. Just let it go. People like her. It's no crime.

  • Welll what is your musical preference? I mean music is alllllllll about opinion. No matter what, no argument over music will ever have a clear winner. I mean you can't just persuade someone to not listen to the music they want to listen to. Commenting about her is a little different then just getting into tons of obviously pointless arguments.

  • Wow uh rude? Ha. Hmmm let's see, how many artists have songs about love? Honestly dude? Come on now. Her music isn't unoriginal. Idk if you've listened to it all, maybe you've looked up the lyrics but have you heard the songs? Her style and songs are pretty unique in my book and people enjoy her music. God damn. I'm pretty sure even your favorite band has written at least one love song. It's a common interest.

  • Okay so basically your point is that you don't like people who write a lot of love songs? Im just trying to figure that out. Not trying to provoke anything. Have you listened to the song come round soon by her? Go listen to it. Yeah some of her songs are lovey and poppy but they have a bit of uniqueness that other people of her genre don't have. I can't exactly pinpoint it though. But that's my opinion.

  • we get it. you don't like sara bareilles. that's fine.

    what's sad is that you've been continually revisiting this video/page for over a month to keep trolling about how "unoriginal" and "uninspired" her music is.

  • What is the name of the song at the very beginning of the DVD, with Sara playing the accordion-like instrument?

  • ok, now im pissed. i just read the comments of you sick people and i have to say, i study in harvard and i know what im talking about and i recognize dumbasses and everyone here is one of them. go have sex, listen this beautiful music and get a fucking life. dont annoy us normal people with your ignorant opinions, you know what? Shravalakrama, I cant hear you, hello? you don't even live for me, in my eyes you dont need to breath my air away. ha! now you got my anger! my ST. ANGER! Har har

  • You are from Harvard my ass... you don't even type with the proper punctuations to be considered Harvard material... I figured you Harvard types listened to (see a previous conversation) Mozart... Have sex? There's something to live by... Let's just populate and let our anal nerves control us for the rest of our lives... Sara must be an anthem writer for you...

  • my daddy is the president of harvard! i tell him to deny your candidacies forever and all time as long as he lives and dies and i became the new president of the united states! then i'm going to emigrate you to mexico! shes the anthem of the usa for me, when i got president. you wouldn't even handle the harvard, so how do you wanna halde the SHRUB! LULULULULU AI AI! my indian power ranger mighty hand will figure out your home and ill get your ass! NOW THATS ANAL!

  • Your dad is the president of Harvard... what is his name?

    Now THAT'S anal.

  • Just caught her show at the Ryman in Nashville last night. Wow, what a great show! She's extremely talented and her opening act "Raining Jane" was great!

  • yea Shes so good at live concerst. much beter then the recordings on albums. i saw her in vancouver!! everyone was like "Whoo" and we are like "Ahh", and sara was like "Looove" it was nice.

  • Just a question: does anyone else's dvd skip right before the cover of (Sitting On) The Dock of the Bay (which is amazing btw...) and in a couple of the videos? =/

  • Looks like you have been ripped off twice, my friend '=.D

  • Grrr... I hope I can take it back

  • sara IS GOOD. u dont no about sara. she is talented n ur just jealous cause she makes more money than u. u know, young people who fall in love fo the first time can relate to her songs, they coem from teh heart and not brain. she sings about the life n the only thing that matters. dont think just listen or fuck off. we wanna enjoy her music. find a girl n you understand her lyrics.

  • freymalu:

    She is good, because:

    She is talented, because:

    Money = music?

    So... then it's all about not having a brain then, smart...

    Don't think... like Sara?

    Yeah, maybe I'll find a girl and have her decipher these lyrics...

    "Love love love" means "hey I do what I do for a living because I have record executives"

  • I don't know who this cockadoodie BigMachismo or whatever his name is, he's gosh darn getting on my nerves. LEAVE SARA ALONE!

  • Chris Crocker

  • screw you. why dont u run away and play your emo misfits

  • If the Misfits were emo... no...

    I would much rather,

    Have people listen to emo than this

    Pete Wentz anyone?

  • Dont say anything against peet wentz ya?! he is so good lokin and his music is real rock and punk stor! sara and pete should marry and make litte sate babys!

  • BECAUSE she has talent. she play piano like mozart! and she sings like a young female pavarotii! ITS ABOUT LUV! <3, it come from haert and not from brain. somtimes u have to brain off and relax to enjoy the feeling and u get the deeper meaning in saras songs. bleachys right, LEAve SARa ALONE! every being can do what it want to do

  • u hav no musical taste thats y u dont see teh genius behind sara!

  • Sara = Mozart now?

    This is just getting better, and better!

    Clearly, you have no brain, and your heart is aimed toward cliche music...

    of course, Sara would likely promote that the heart is with emotional value, although it is merely here to keep you alive... which is sad in this case...

    Sara is about as genius as a teenage girl who watches soaps and romantic Adam Sandler movies

  • I LOVE ADAM SENDLER MOVIEZ! Im livig human being and i hav brain cuz everey human has got brain pot IDIOT! MOZart is lose, SARA FTW!

  • freymaul... pete wentz is not even classified as a human being, in my book... every human as a brain... but you... clearly there were other plans in your mothers uterus... I'm sure she did say "love" at one of her concerts... it appears to be the only word she knows...

  • enough..u made me cry. realz u made me cry. how can u say that about pete wentz? my PETE WENTZY! by far the greatest guitarists of the wurld! u think my mother had uterus? your mother had uterus! my mother is health by medicine. she also no more wordz like bottel n gravity n many moore that u never even can spell in one sentences! i has as much as a brain as u has, just like every other sara fan in here. we are a big internnationell family! u cant stop the fame of sara b!

  • pete wentz is a sub-par bass player... not a guitarist...

    every Sara fan in here has a brain, but they'd use it a bit more to see that Sara contradicts herself...

    I don't have to stop her fame... she won't be found in any time capsules...

  • My musical taste = ?

    You've done the research, why not clue everybody in.

    I'm not here to spam, elmorse... but, while you're at it, you may as well do as I do, and use fact, not opinion.

    I suck 'because', might be a good place to start.

    Whilst I don't like speed metal, I do know the talent that is involved, and I don't bash without a cause.

    Talking shit is easy, you're right.

    That's why I don't. I use fact.

  • and, you can't say writing a song for the winter isn't trying to be marketable, and not a musician.

  • Not a discussion page? What the hell are the comments for then? In return of nothing, why comment at all?

  • Love Song: Doesn't want to write one One Sweet Love My Love Bottle It Up - single. Fairy Tale Single in Canada: Love on the Rocks No projective range, 21+ love songs in the top 40, since 1992. 430,000 words that AREN'T love. "The River", a cover song.
  • This is some discussion page cause they offer you to post a comment and you can write whatever you think about this. It's not only for people who love that kind of music, the other ones are also allowed to say their opinion, arent they? If you reply to that, a discussion begins, it's up to you.

    Even if this is the internet, the opinions and facts are real just like the people behind that. Too judge them (because it's just easier), instead of trying to understand it, is utterly stupid.

  • discussions are to be based upon these "comments"

    you rely on whom to tell you what to watch in the theaters? the movie critics.

    believe it or not, there are MORE reviews than just Mr. Two Thumbs Up.

    I should be listening to the music:

    I have, and I have entitled an opinion about this music.

    My opinion is that she contradicts herself, based on the fact that she HAS written love songs, based on she didn't want to.

    Too simple to be referred to as talented.

    Fighting is stupid.

    Debating is not.

  • first of all, the message of "love song" isn't "never write a love song" it's "i won't write YOU one NOW" so it's a bit strong, calling her a hypocrite. Secondly, songs are generally written to stand on their own. If an artist worries too much about contradictions, they'll box themselves in and never write anything new.

    "Simple" is sometimes the key. You think it takes more talent to make things complicated? Have you ever tried to make a simple, complete, work of art? I have, and it's hard.

  • she wrote a love song for somebody, on the same session noless, more than one, she clearly sold out to somebody, chances are her label, she didn't have to add those tunes.

    if an artist was honest, then they needn't worry about a contradiction.

    simplicity is easy, as is layering onto a song, and improvising, nothing has to be barren, no less your whole entire catalog.

    I'm all for stripped music too, but this is just missing something.

  • Nice come back.

    I'm sure you stayed up all night coming up with that one, to add to this debate.

    Thank you, come again.

    Next...

  • Yes, this is for real.

    I guess you find people's death and a great oppression hilarious?

    We can pretend this is a perfect loving world all we want.

    Rome had to come down eventually.

    There is no insanity.

    Putting serial killers off as "legally sane", that is insane.

    Survival of the fittest.

    Try talking about someone when you know what the insult means ;)

    Maybe make it relative next time.

  • SHE'S awesome !

  • But a monkey looks smart next to you and yes, you do deserve the dumb award. I just try to tell you that you're a fucking ignorant idiot. I'm just not directly, that's all...

  • WTF! slut ?? this has gone way to far !i'm thought that i was the inmmature one ! polysly i think he is only one giving some base in the argument ! but he fucked up by reacting like a 9 year olD ! "you deserve de dumb award ! monkey looks smart next to you!" WTF !you guys really think somebody is going to stop listening to sara, just because you say so ?? ! thats iMpossible!and how did you wanted me to react if your talking shit about sara ! and she's is fucking AWESOME for me! i'm out of here!

  • awesome for you why?

    we've gone into quite microscopic detail onto our hatred of her...

    now it is your turn to defend yourself...

  • AWESOME FOR ME BECAUSE I LOVE HER MUSIC ! I LOVE HER VOICE I LOVE HER LYRICS! DEFEND MY SELF ??? FROM WHAT! FROM SOME STUPID GUYS WHO HATE ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ARTISTS WITH NO VALID ARGUMENTS! I NEVER WAS TRYING TO DEFEND MY SELF ! I WAS TRYING TO DEFEND HER, BUT I SEE IS NO LONGER NECESARY!NOBODY IS GOING TO STOP HEARING HER MUSIC JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK SHE CANT SING AND PLAY THE PIANO! WHICH IS SOO NOT TRUEE! AND YOU ARE FREAKIN JEALOUS!you are never going to be even a half of what she is!adios

  • "no valid arguments" yeah, we've already selected this outcome for you, not to use on us, be original

    21+ love songs since 92, in the top 40

    no original content

    no registered voice type

    no melodies advanced enough to place her as a break-thru artist

    430,000 words in websters, many that differ from love

    doesn't want to write a love song but writes 5+ or so, maybe more...

    jealous = pity that she is a one-trick pony ;)

  • Dude, you need to get laid. I'm sure that Sara loses SOO much sleep beacuse you (who are YOU?)don't care for her lyrics. She's making bank buddy. Get over your elitist attitudes and go start a chat room for other losers like yourself.

  • so i's agreed? love doesn't exist. it's merely sex, admiration... and album sales... thanks for proving my point. who said I don't have friends. it takes 5 minutes to type in here. you would as well not have friends, then. Sara Bareilles markets (MARKETS!) to teenagers. she is too adolescent (Nogin, anybody?) to sell to any of her peers, but doesn't supply you with something that is more realistic, or understandable, to the youth. disney endings are great, but there are wars, and bad economy
  • I swear to god ! that is not me ! is on you to believe me or not!

  • isabelle, even a monkey looks smart next to you. if you have nothing to say that fits into this discussion just let it go, please. you just make a fool of yourself the longer this takes. -.-

  • you'so wrong !! youre so desperatley to prove your point! ahahahahah I dont have nothing to do at all with tonisanz65 !! ooo i can now say that you and polysly! are the same person and have like 5 accounts each ! what about that !

  • I guess you can't.

    Seeing as we type different, it's safe to say we're not.

    I'm not the one who's desperate, it's a simple matter of debate. Choose a side.

    Explain the fact that a 40 year old, whom has one favorite (this video), joins in on the argument, you post 10 minutes after,

    "wow, someone agrees with me!"

    Tour names both have numbers after them, and spaces after the "!"'s.

    I already proved my point with facts.

    I am still waiting for yours.

    Add to the argument:

    She's good, because...

  • Is this make-believe person 40, or 43 ??

    Fraud is illegal, I'll have you know !!

    It doesn't help the fact that you're posting comments to yourself on your own page !!

    2 minutes after you post one from the other to begin with !!

  • how pompous of a 16 year old girl...

    you're 10, at best.

  • Your 12.....

  • your a slut :P

  • hi, i'm 40 years old, and i like sara bareil lles, she is a great musician and very talented, if somebody doesn't like her music, please don't listen to it ! and find some other music that you like, i think sara bareilles will be a great star because her voice is different, beautiful and in she has everything to be famous! I dont think she is hypocritical and that she contradicts her self, and I think she is in other level, she's going to the TOP.

  • finally somebody who gets me ! thanks tonisanz65
