It's good to know that I'm not the only one people insist on talking over my music-expression-message-performance===this is a great recording amazing- I don't think I'll ever get that good.
It is in London, or rather was, as it recently closed. A rather kitsch place, it used to be the Raymond Revue Bar; in other words an expensive strip joint for business men on expense counts. Later it essentially became burlesque central (look carefully and you can find it on some BBC reality-type programmes).
Not sure why this place should make you ashamed to be British. Terra loved it. She was really sad when it closed down and lots of musicians appeared there (some reputable, some not).
it's terrible when performers (especially as good as terra) do their best only to have ignorant people chatter so loudly that it drowns out the performance, it really didn't look as though she was enjoying the experience...
So it was the inconsiderate chatterers, not the place itself. I'd agree - too many people think that gossiping with their mates is more important than the enjoyment of others, not to mention inconsiderate to the artist. It's a particular problem for support acts.
If you want to feel a little better about being British, Terra's promotional CD "Live & Free" - recorded in California includes the note "with cameo performance by loud guy in front and british guy telling loud guy to shut up".
Terra has been famous on YouTube since July 2006. Anyway, she has a MySpace and website (and I've got some other versions of this song without the noise). Terra is on Island records and her album (Under the Influence) is available in the UK (but it can be got on import elsewhere).
Of course she is frustrated.! Those fucked up bastards just can't stop talkin'.hey should've been glad to be there.Terra is GODNESS! Better than Alanis and so much better than the other female singers.
I just realized how beautiful this performance is, in spite of the loud people. You have GOT to be deaf to hear this live and not pay attention to it.
This was such a powerful rendition, rising above the airbrain chatterers - Terra won most of them over in the end, it was only the ones at the back, near the bar who remained oblivious to the talent playing for them.
I agree - a great song and I prefer this agnry, agressive, sarcastic version to the new mix which completely changed the feel. I did, of course, slaughter several of those whose inane chatter almost ruined this song. The remaining culprits are in hiding knowing that vengeance will be mine.
Great videos! Sound is excellent as well. It's times like that I wish the artist would just crank the volume so loud that rude people couldn't talk to each other even if they tried. T looks a bit frustrated???

she performed very good and the song always amazes me, but this time it seemed like she wasn't really enjoying playing it..
I guess the crowd was irritating her (which is perfectly understandable)

Terra is not only a wonderful vocalist, she's a great lyricist too.

That doesn't seem to be a happy look. Terra is probably also only too aware that there are a couple of video cameras there plus operators.
