[mystras100]

Paul Bonham Mavrakis

[controlgovernor]

Tracy is fantastic I forgot she sang this song. I only found this after looking for Blue Man Group ,, check her out performing some crazy BMG music with her violin !!

[10mannyman]

u wanna hear some screaming check out deep purple child n time 72

[HBuisty]

Screaming doesn't really work for this version. I love both versions! I love when artists can do something different on stage. Well done Tracy!

[rumimatsy]

Nice arranging!!!!! Love it!

Have your world!

[memoriasdeangelo]

I love this woman!!!

[katzzie]

Wow!!!!

[Prometheus1st]

I would like to see Tracy and Regina Spektor do a collaboration. I am sure that would be NUMBER ONE WITH A BULLET....so to speak.

Although...that much talent, and that much potential angst my cause a THERMONUCLEAR reaction.

However,...I am willing to risk it.

[TheKatIsBackAgain]

Fuck the veronicas. They went to my highschool and they were just as shit then as they are now. Veronicas couldn't scream worth shit for this song.

[hatethatsmirk]

Tracy rocks! And she's very inspiring. Love her....seen her a couple times earlier in the 2000's in LA met her and she was just so sweet and kind. :) Took my pic with her she looks so happy and she was just so nice.... She Gave me compliments on the shirt I was wearing :) I went up to her just as she was finishing and collecting her stuff. Tiny place like this. I hope you come to LA again VERY SOON TRACY!!! xxoxo

[stiimuli]

lol love how she changed it up with the violin pluckin XD

[wineformybetches]

Umm. No, The Veronica's version is NOT better. They're anorexic trolls.

[DJnobachie]

Uhm the veronicas do it much better

[epitomeofpissed]

@DJnobachie And you're obviously an idiot.

[iiiiiccccc]

This song is Legend.

[roxy22star]

love this song

[GangreneVagina]

Why do people write songs that they can't sing live? What a damn shame...

[levicaindotcom]

i dunno, i kind of like the way she sings it here... i definitely like the arrangement better. but you know what's really a damn shame? what sean slade and paul kolderie did to this whole album! they tried to turn her into a second-string alanis morissette! and in the '96 version of this particular song, they pretty much succeeded. and THAT's a damn shame.

[SchizophobicBand]

@levicaindotcom - What's wrong with that, Alanis is awesome :P

[olds7980]

the studio version is the same, check it out, it is a great classic tune and she is an awesome singer live.

[GangreneVagina]

olds7980-

No, the studio version is much better. It is not the same.

"check it out" LOL! I have heard the studio version approximately one ASS LOAD of times. :-)

[MegaAJA1]

she could be an awesome extreme electric violinist but with that song...not...but maybe with the shark song..

[Granyonky]

Love her. Fuckin love her

[juggalonumber27]

this looks like a GREAT show :D

small, personal, my kinda show, i envy you for getting to see her

[Kaie5383]

just love it!!! Tracy is amazing!!! and I really love this version!

[lespaulguitarman24]

If you like that check out delana's cover from rockstar supernova.

[rinkibandaholic]

is this her original song or is it the veronicas?

[kellyclarkson4eva]

her original

[shelbayy050]

@rinkibandaholic this is her song, the veronicas covered it.

[kickenradmime]

LAME she freekin sucks the Veronicas do a much better job this lady sucks

[Jantmass]

I like the version of this song she did in the WAAF studio in Boston.

[mokomokosensei]

Gaaaaah! I was at this concert. She rocked the universe.

[markn902]

ausome

[omitox]

OMG!!! the part where she is supposed to rip her vocal chords EVERYTHING'S FINE! sounds cool too!!! i love Tracy

[sstannik]

great song

[datickywickygurl]

chicks who play violins r hott

i had a violin when i was kid and someone broke one of the strings on it b4 i could even learn how to play. now ill never be hott :-(

[oxatk]

lol she doesnt wanna scream

[Clinged]

not.. bad. but she cant really scream. but other then that its not bad.

[psychic13]

She may be trying not to wreck her voice, doing that regularly is not good for the vocal chords.

[temporarydive]

Awesome. So much better live..

[Wadeforshaw]

imo the everythings fine part, makes the song. woulda sounded much better if she just released on those

[bagumbax]

I think it's hilarious now that she obviously feels a little ridiculous screaming the "everythings fine" part. Oh, how we grow old!!! I saw it coming. I love it. Her more recent stuff is great too.

[eyeflow9]

awesome woman

[chinoces25]

kick ass version!!!!

[Andimia55]

AND she plays the violin

[dyingproof]

The Veronica's are a glorified wanna be punk version of Avril or Hillary Duff who spell words like '4ever' and 'boi.' They're awful.

Tracy B = a legend.

[imabimbo66]

Love it rockin' or "mellow." She's good.

[Dutte84]

To all these people who thinks this is out of tune, too slow, too countryish and whatever, listen to the original version, it rocks a little harder... But I like this, it's pretty cool what she does with the violin...

[moody2016]

i like it :D:D:D

[roomsx]

sooo goood

[ozoneocean]

That was beautiful. Tracy is a marvellous performer.

-Yeah, that's the trouble with a lot of new bands; either most of what they do are crap covers, or they're covers exactly in the style of the original. Ah, I suppose it's a safe way for a generic band to make some money. ;)

[DeepintheHigh]

Brilliant! Tracy Bonham could sing this song backwards, off key, with only a tamborine ...AND she would still have the best version of this song. To hear TBo sing this song one way is not to have heard her sing this song. She is talented enough to not have to copycat her original performance. She brings something unique to every performance and I appreciate that. Go Tracy! It's your thang, do what you wanna do!

[amelio747]

different, i like.

[KikaBkmn]

P.S. for the younger people, she originally released this song 11 yrs ago, in Spring of 1996

[KikaBkmn]

Nothing better than watching the original artist recreating their own material. Especially after the Veronicas covered this song only to sound exactly like her original version ... lol.

[WashedOYS]

wow, that was awesome.

[strangeBEEhavior]

woah! i love this version :D

[pollypong33]

i like the veronicas' version because this sounds too country-ish and she seems too sweet and innocent to sing this song lol. and also, she goes off tune when she screams.

[ibanezgirl]

You're an idiot. This is Tracy's song and The Veronica's basically ripped off her song and didn't even try to cover it with any of their own flavor.

[pollypong33]

lol i think you're the idiot. the v's version's got so much more rock to it and it's a lot faster. and how is it ripping off when someone is given permission to cover someone's song.

[ibanezgirl]

Having permission to cover a song has nothing to do with ripping off the style in which she did the song. They didn't make it their own. Have you never heard her original track? It's the same as what they did. And their "version" isn't faster, I just listened to them both, they're basically the same tempo give or take a second.

[pollypong33]

uhh... okay. lol. o_O

[trublu787cp]

the veronicas version isnt different at all.. in fact even their tone of voice is the same :( dilana robichaux did an original cover of this which i love. but go tracy. this song rocks

[holyjodeeshit]

Awesome song,veronicas did a poor cover,,,whoops!

[Prins3ssa]

I LOVE IT

But i prefere the veronicas's version :$

[ibanezgirl]

The Veronica's version is a direct ripoff of Tracy's original track (non-acoustic) that was released in the 90's. To say you like their version is to say you like her ORIGINAL song.

[MissLolaRose]

Fucking brilliant woman, love this live accoustic version. Alas, genuine talent in the music industry.

[fathead3381]

i like the video, but i dunno, kinda seems like a boring live appearance

[lantermor]

I love this woman, vengan pa argentina!

[shamusthecat]

Wow, I love this song, and this particular performance astonished me. This acoustic version is very unique. It also made me smile watching her when she screamed "everything's fine"

[coitotecnico]

Quienes comos ustedes carajo que han gozado de su musica y aca ni mierda!

[byrlink]

She is a truly talented artist....in the same category with PJ Harvey and Bjork. They are unique. I saw her in two differnt shows in New York and thew were amazing!!!!

They were playing in Mercury Lounge with such an intensity that the drummer broke a drum and had to replace it to continue the show!!!

Sadly, I haven't heard of her lately

[bixlerscott]

She gave an awesome performance with Blue Man Group last night at the Scottrade Center in ST. Louis, Missouri. Nothing, but the most talanted for the world stage.

[DrunkInRio]

wow I love the acoustic version of this song

[spiffysquiggly]

YES!!!

she is soo amazing...
