this is one of my favorite songs! So haunting.... also love the final refrain... I wish she would re-record this entire album as an acoustic version - no synthesizers - just an orchestra.... thanks for posting

Thank you so much for posting this footage. I absolutely loved this album. Saw this tour in Toronto. She also gave a lecture at the Ontario College of Art and showed a retrospective of her work. Beautiful song the final refrain makes me want to cry.

Where are all of the Strange Angels Tour videos? The show was visually stunning, in addition to being musically amazing. It's one of those shows that when people ask me about concerts I can't help but say it was one of the best I ever saw.

@warwickharris you are right, but laurie got ovarys...

She is magic.

What can I say? The studio version of this song is definitely in the top ten songs of all time, on one of the top ten albums of all time, Strange Angels.

And this live gem is so great to hear and see.

Thanks!
