Maude Maggart sings "Superstar" at the Gardenia open mic

[sylviabrooks]

I like the simplicity with which she does this song.

[eemee2]

thanks to this video, I'm going to see her concert tomorrow night in SF...what a sweet voice, wow!

[singerboy1123]

[DRUNKENRAMBLE]

discovered on pandora ...she's 10x better than her sister Fiona!

[cynthemachine]

@DRUNKENRAMBLE I disagree, she's not better or worse, she's just different. Maude is very clear and strong and has a beautiful tone to her voice. Fiona has the edge, the grit, the vulnerability, the drama, and she's an absolutely genius song writer.

[DRUNKENRAMBLE]

@cynthemachine Fiona is a great song writer and musician, she just has a bad presentation and reputation as far as "class" is concerned. Royal talent should be accompanied with Royal grace. IMO. After hearing Maude, I'm getting the impression, she took the Family Jewels and went Buck Wild! It's all coming together now!

[cynthemachine]

@DRUNKENRAMBLE Oh I don't disagree with that! Maude is exquisite and very classy and graceful. I find Fiona extremely endearing in her own way, and her reputation and raw emotion probably adds to that. They are both very talented, and very very different.

[ORIONLOVESEXY]

Why hasn't she recorded this? Brings me to tears everytime I hear it. The nostalgia, the brokeness and vulnerability she shows is so deliciously sad and moving at the same time. Love her. I wish I could see her at the Gardenia room. Bravo dude. This is music at it's finest.

[misermania]

Instant fave

[beforeourveryeyes]

I think that Maude Maggert is one of the most inspired interpretive artists on the planet today. She is so focused into her own stillness. She makes this song her own-no small feat as everyone who covered it, including it's composer, are hard acts to follow. But she makes me hear this with new ears and gives me shivers of truthfulness. Thank you for posting.

[JadeTomZ]

sorry people but this is NOT good singing.

its rather poor actually.

[bectonbrainwave]

and they swam and they swam all over the dam

[MovinRightAlong91]

Her voice is so hypnotic...I love it...

[gomapapel]

i like her dress and her voice...

[MegaWhiner]

Maude is good. I do like Fiona's deeper voice and her dancing better.

[Phazonin]

i was expecting her to sound as low as fiona... but this is nice too! those sisters were gifted with gorgeous tones to their voices.

[neojohn44]

...could you not impose upon her to allow 'the song is you' to be posted? The world would be a better place.

[86juanita]

gg will love her voice and....

[jaxmoviez]

I saw Maude in St Louis a few years ago. I remember thinking how rare it was to hear such a beautiful voice perform songs she must have sang & heard thousands of times since her childhood... and yet she still had the glimmer in her eyes to prove that she was present, that she had brought these songs as a gift for us that night.  If I were Irving Berlin I'd have been proud that someone so young was worthy enough to inspire other musicians & listeners so many years later.

[keithaltham]

This girl is a massiv massive talent if she gets the right help - but only 45 years in the music business what would I know

[keithaltham]

This girl could be a super nova if she gets the right help - but what would I know after 45 years in the music business

[fioreazzurro25]

Grande voce, splendida cantante con la voce molto particolare

[tig1960]

u should hear her sing and the melody lingers on fab fab fab fab fab fab fab fab fabulous truly

[tHomB1974]

Wow!!! amazing

[KenMacMillan]

I'd hit that.

[mortygwhiz]

This is the first complete song I've heard her sing. I just saw her in the Clint Eastwood film about Johnny Mercer and had to hear more. This Leon Russell song has long been a fovorite of mine and she wrings out the emotion with her wonderful voice and interpretive skill.

[noella7777]

Very pretty girl, her persona seems alot softer than Fiona

[AlyssaRosey]

She's just amazing! Whats her age?

[itsasimplelife07]

oh my god.

[Teebll]

She smiles more than Fiona :)

[Pohaku66]

Just discovered her on Brent Spiner's website featured on his "Dreamland" CD/Video... and now I'm here. Simply amazing...enthralling. And once again I fall into the abyss of love.

[mssharpie]

dear maude,this "superstar."did he snort coke off your butt too?

[PetruoFan]

What a voice! Amazing! I also know her as the sister of Fiona, however, she is as great as her sister. I wanna hear her albums.

[DarkSunshineRain]

her voice is higher than fiona's. She's so freaking beautiful

[jenlyn77]

Wow what a beautiful and talented woman Just like Fiona! I'm so impressed. She's the sophisticated one, Fiona seems to be more on the wild side. I am a huge fan of Fiona, now her sister too! I read somewhere that their mother was a singer as well. I'd love to see what she was made of, anyone got an audio of that? I'd totally worship you!

[Jinnica]

She sounds and looks like her sister Fiona Apple!!

[myymee]

She almost sounds like Joan Baez, the timbre and vibrato..and similar vocal expression.

[Zebonka]

Daaaamn!

[romelovesdan]

Beautiful and enchanting...

[donnerbrandpear]

Wait, Maude is the reason there aren't more videos on here? She's crazy! People would love this kind of thing--it would only bring her more fans.

[paperbacklou]

Super cagalistic fantastic.

[vigwig]

Her stillness and her focus - awesome.

[analoglibra]

beautiful song. She sings wonderfully!

[buriedlovely]

Amazing phrasing.

Her voice is so liliting.

[JesseFahey]

Have been to see Maude 3 times, once at the Algonquin for the good girl/bad girl set, then at Tilles center at NYT and last in Port Washington Y in Nov. Her voice pulls at my hearts strings and creates memories of emotions I haven't yet experienced. My only wish is to see her sing Skylark live. Thanks for posting this video, Lovely

[deathbyblonde11]

Why'd you take down the other videos of her?

[dougster2810]

She asked me to. I think it's silly as I know it can only bring more fans her way...but couldn't say no.

[deathbyblonde11]

Oh, that sucks :(

[BNaVaRo]

@dougster2810 if its what she wants...

[Deluviel]

Wow...

[billyssongbird]

i also heard maude on xm...such a beautiful voice...her and her sister have the same gorgeuos quality

[gaildebra]

heard Maude on direct satellite radio singing How Could We Be Wrong. It was beautiful. Jonathan Schwartz's program on the American Standards.

[MyNameIsSissy]

What the current generation of singers (i.e. "American Idol" et al.) don't realize is that genius lies in TRUTH and SIMPLICITY, and not in doing "runs" that show off a range and flexibility that in the end add nothing to the interpretation of a song. Let them all take a lesson from Maude Maggart.

[jamesnich99]

..Its such a sad, puzzling perplexing reaction that Maudes music "alters my state". Your a Dear Maude. Don't be sad. If your heart must break, then let it break. But wherever you go, others will follow. Its called Love Maude. And yes. Your music does bring tears. Take care.

[Spermy77]

Never seen two sisters like that!!

[dshipe78]

Oh definitely, Fiona is phenomenal live, very raw emotionally. I would love to see Maude perform live as well, her voice is absolutely stunning!

[triplepisces]

her and her sister both have that something. some kinda charm, i guess you would call it. vulnerable, for sure. fiona takes it to much angrier place, though. still when both of them perform, it's mind blowing.

[fetachistic]

Maude is so increadible, talented and beautiful! Why are there so few videos of her on you tube? I've seen her live once before in Adelaide (South Australia)and wish she'd come back soon, it was the best show ever, plus i got her autograph!Love her.

[dougster2810]

OH there'll be more for sure. As bad luck would have it, neither one of her numbers came through this week...may be having problems with my camcorder. Will try again Tuesday!

Also, Maude, I went to your website and you said I could Email you that way...but there's no direct Email for you.

Let's figure it out!

[Elle78x]

Wow .. when did she come to Aust?? Im so annoyed I missed that!!!

[fetachistic]

She came to Oz last year in winter if i remember correctly. She performed at the festival theatre during the cabaret festival. It was great, She tells a wonderful story through her songs.

[Rufriben]

dougster, My Dear, this is so delightful. A very thoughtful reading by a lovely interpreter. Had the pleasure of seeing her at the Algonquin this Spring and enjoyed every minute of it.

[tingtongtundy]

this is awesome....I can't get enough of her voice....MORE MORE MORE MORE

[dougster2810]

She's at the Gardenia in LA almost every week singing one or two songs, so I'll make sure to bring my camera more often and get this angel on tape!

[deathbyblonde11]

Thank you!

[iamasoundfiend]

@dougster2810 - what day(s) does she sing?? i am so there

[starmujohnny]

[deathbyblonde11]

Please put up more Maude Maggart videos! I am always searching for one's with her in them.  She blows my mind, I adore her.
