Tori Amos - Losing My Religion Live Vh1

[alleseigentlich]

Sounds like she doesn't know the lyrics. :V

[Master1256Merlin]

WOW - did she screw over this song !

[MAFiA303]

assassination to REM's music

[shipwreckedism]

@bluebirdsin agreed with.. but asshole mind your words.. how the heck u said 'great songs into better ones' ???

[leedscab123]

Hootie and the Blowfish do an amazing cover of Losing My Religion as well, it's awesome.

[temistoclebanana]

what's the name of the song when she was talking ?

[caseydonwilliams]

This is epic. Every OUNCE of this is genius. Critically... this is the closest to god i will ever feel.

[roxierocks1000]

I have heard your name but never lisend to your music fucking unreal love &happiness paul. Xoxoxo

[Chefofnote]

Love Tori, she is the epitome of sexy :)

[paulapaularaejohnson]

not diggin this at all....omg! stop it!

[Gallooch25]

Somebody has to say it, but she ABSOLUTELY BUTCHERED this song. This is just my opinion but this is BY FAR THE WORST COVER OF ANY SONG I HAVE EVER HEARD! There is no flow, no rythm, no consistency to this at all. ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS!

[MuikuliWander]

@Gallooch25 Fail opinion is fail.

[W4SG1J]

@MuikuliWander sorry but i totally agree with Gallooch25 ..she can have an huge talent and be very beautiful but this song needs more happy feelings, u know, like on original:D

[MuikuliWander]

@W4SG1J Happy feelings? Like on original? You also fail.

[W4SG1J]

@MuikuliWander nah i dont she does;D but ok.. its ur opinion:) i do like her voice but this is so ''savourless''..but we have different type taste of music..im more the guy who likes the metal version of a random pop song and u the soft one i guess:)

[MuikuliWander]

@W4SG1J Your comment made me facepalm, because I can't see where you are getting "happy feelings" from the original song. It's certainly more up-tempo, but that's a different matter. And yes, I guess we indeed do have different types of music taste. I'm not big into covers in general tbh. but I feel like Tori has done some very excellent covers, because her interpretations are unique. I dislike covers, which are dull or could've been done by any similar band. And I do like metal.

[W4SG1J]

@MuikuliWander unique indeed..check this video btw where that song happens too..thats why i love it:D /watch?v=al7ugkGbMFk

[MuikuliWander]

@W4SG1J That's terribad. Yes, I had to make up a new adjective to describe how bad it was.

[dajesusblues]

@Gallooch25 I happen to agree that it's not a great cover. But that's ok. I'd rather see artists take risks and fail than to refuse to take them at all. She tried. It didn't work, at least for me. So be it.

[TheFlyingPineapple]

@Gallooch25 yeah, it's not great that's for sure. There is a quite a nice cover by Nina Persson though.

[framedanddried]

I wouldn't say that its better than the original, but the musical interpretation is beautiful by any standard. I don't like when she goes off on tangents of nonsense speak in my opinion it is distracting and takes away from the beauty and the flow of the song. Is it true that the original is about a straight man that Michael Stipe was in love with....just something I read somewhere....any thoughts?

[sTapleEVA]

@HelloMrBook ya, but her cover of enjoy the scilence blows the orginal away in my opinion, so much more pure/soul piercing. Smells like teen spirit matched the original too, and gave a whole new viewpoint to it/exposed the beauty behind the lyrics. this one is not that good compaired to those two.

[daze2525]

fantastic....there's something of Kate Bush in this which is no bad thing

[sharkbaitsurfer]

She is every type of gorgeous

[zachariahgriffin]

I really wanted to like this cover, and I know you're supposed to cover a song and 'make it your own version' but when only unintelligible words/phrases come out of your mouth- it's pointless to attempt the song... Does she slur EVERY word in EVERY song she sings? :-/ blah.

[jeroendekangeroen]

very very annoying!

[MrXevier]

@jeroendekangeroen

A few years I could not even understand how someone could dislike that.

Now I understand how she can act and be unbearable to some people.

[jeroendekangeroen]

@MrXevier I KNOW!! :) I also had my "Tori-Amos-Period" in the 90's.....still think she is one of the best female artists ever but she can also be so annoying if your not in that period/mood.....

[breaksmysiren]

whether you like this version or not... you cant say she doesnt have talent. She's absolutely oozing talent.

[Mystylplx]

@breaksmysiren

"Oozing" is the right word. Or maybe "radiating." Or maybe "exploding with" is a better verb phrase. Whatever words we use... girls got some serious skillllzzzzz. No doubt.

[juanbjork]

pure musical talent to make it her own

[Nizwiz411]

crap

[5rmalindig]

This is called music at its best.. 

[the16012002]

KOJE SRANJE JBT...

[Keruaran]

Too much Tori Amos and not enough REM. Her cover of Depeche Mode's 'Enjoy The Silence' is much better.

[xxxxShrutixxxx]

Sounded nothing like the original, for a good couple of minutes I was wondering if it's really the cover for the Classic.

[MrBleedthefreak]

fuck this shit!

[boypunk88]

this is shit

[tubeuszr]

not a fan really

[Newbonic]

I preferred the Kate Bush version :->

[lifestandstillhere]

The only artist who I have adored consistently since I was, ohhh, much younger than I am now.

Always provocative. Always interesting. Always gorgeous. Always Tori.

[Yokonono99]

I love listening to these covers :)

[chefapk100]

WOw,, She is just terrible...

[terrapinbrad]

Tori always goes to her 'place' when she performs, whether it be live or a studio recording. She casts a different persona if not becomes a whole new character sometimes. That's why we (well, I) love her! <3 ;-}

[TheKuatrech]

Love Tori's covers...so emotional and powerful whilst being soft

[DejaVuSu]

Gorgeous.....

[caseydonwilliams]

it like shes like a witch,,,,,, shes beautiful.

[ganstermacdaddy]

This song helped me through alot of rough times and made me smile and still does today i will play this song during my memorial......................­.................

[FreedomMarySnakeDayk]

this woman is incredible

[angievigilante]

Was she dating Trent at this time? I wonder who "soldier boy' is?

[sickofwaitingtables]

@angievigilante

She didn't date Trent. Or rather, it was never confirmed that she dated Trent. Wish they could've gotten together, though :)

[angievigilante]

@sickofwaitingtables I could've sworn!!!! I remember her mentioning something about his tongue, lol ;P

[noreexic]

why does she put on a fake pronunciation thing when she sings, its very affected

[swari]

I love her music, and her covers, but this one is not good one

she somehow broke the harmony of the song

[OrenLovesTori]

May 1996. Beautiful performance.

[bluebirdsin]

She dared to cover this song and gave a whole new meaning to it...absolutely stunning, and truly one of the FEW artists who have that rare gift of transforming great songs into even better ones.

[chazaro666]

@bluebirdsin Idk if its really better, but i agree with u that this song is amazing in both versions :)

[JoseBerry]

i dont like her version of this song...

[slivertoe]

I would turn straight for Tori.

[lusciousred01]

:-O Holy god!!

[MsBeautifulScar]

Oh.my.god

[beatacatthegreat]

I adore Tori's interpretation of this song. She made it sound as if it was her own. So dark and disturbing. Beautiful.

[AshLovesCoopyandRion]

My Goddess, i could just eat her up!! hehe

[kylegreerrocks]

as always, thanks for posting these wonderful gems! :)

[TarAncalyme]

she´s so beautiful

[illfindoutful]

@TarAncalyme She was.

[MuseOfSin]

is it from 99 ?

[PreciousEarthquakes2]

Looks like 96 to me. Especially cause of the Caught a Lite Sneeze backround. And she sung this song most in 96.

[toriphile1989]

definiely 1996
