Feel really connected being born that year. :)

No one could honour Velvet Revolution's participants more beautifuly than Tori did. I'm from Poland so I understand how did you feel when She was singing about 1989. I was at this concert and although I didn't understand much (as a 15 years old with quite poor English and history knowlegde), it was very moving moment. Now, listening to it, I got goosebumps. And the "record company digression", just priceless.

Was it you

Oh it was you

and you must feel this

this inside everyday that you wake up everyday you know that 5,000 miles away

in the land of the free there are people

there are people trying to figure how to be like you

back in 1989

You did something that we will sing about

we will sing about forever

[orangegirlred]

Thinking 1989

Where were they

Somewhere in L.A. singing Little Earthquakes in my one room having a war with my record company

those stupid fucks and scumbags yeah

they've all been fired now

bye bye

Cause I am thinking yes I'm thinking in my mind

[orangegirlred]

Someone I was hearing about people they were sitting

they were screaming

they were crying for their freedom

For their freedom

Was it you

Oh it was you

and it's true it was it was all true

You see now I am thinking that in a thousand years you'll be a fairytale

You'll be a story

There will be princesses there sitting crosslegged over on Charles Bridge back in 1989

This has nothing at all to do with Velvet Revolution.

[chrisny2]

The Velvet Revolution took place in Prague in 1989...she did this improv as a prelude to Velvet Revolution during the show.
