Paula Cole - "Me" - Live at Pershing Square

[aggiedel]

This song takes me back to freshman year of college. It still gives me goosebumps every single time I hear it.

[ilikecats10]

wow! she's amazing

[Abstractionant]

i'm crying...

[ihavechappedlips]

Does she really hit those notes at about 6:00?

[circesdad]

One of her best songs and performances. She just reaches out and strokes your soul.

[wolfben22]

Amazing

[airmcnair78]

One of my all time favorite Paula Cole songs! and this version is just awesome!

[BillieJoesFave]

9 people don't realize what true music is

[shaundraivy]

these lyrics speak to my soul and are so true..self confidence is a blessing and a gift that most people will not know, which is very sad.

She is amazing!

[MysteriousMarion]

She´s so damned right! SIGNED.

[jofly17]

@MysteriousMarion  I couldn't have said it better.

[Doleafol]

Wow...a rich, emotionally power rendition of a staggeringly song. Where have you gone Paula Cole?

[lakotasue]

@Doleafol I just saw her in Kirkland Wa SHE IS ALIVE AND PASSIONATE AS EVER!!!! YAY! PAULA! SHE JUST PUT OUT A CD IN NOV

[FlanneryDiehl]

@lakotasue Good News. Thank you for letting us know. Isn't she exquisite?

[WindHarps]

One of the most poetically passionate songs ever experienced ~^~

[debgibsonfan]

Thanks for all the great Paula Cole vids!!!!!

[TheAnnaleeo]

=) i luv dis song.

[CCarmen]

thank you SO MUCH for uploading this. Paula Cole is a Goddess in the guise of a Genius.

[ajpmuk]

Amazing voice - she was outstanding with Peter Gabriel on the Secret World tour

[sullyboy13]

That is soul music. Death to autotune.

[dueleelsaelaya]

Her shows must take so much out of her. I've never seen someone so exposed emotionally during a performance!

[ulihedi]

What a great share, thank you for posting!

[zoobliezoo]

OMG!! She sang the sh*t outta this song!! I've always loved it and I love it even more live with just her piano.. Wow what a freakin talent!! Paula where r u??

[rwmusic]

@zoobliezoo She is touring right now. GO SEE HER!

[handofsytiva]

I am in love with song

[OMGiicantfindaname]

Flowers---I agree so much! this song touches the spirit. I love being up on top of Spruce Knob Mtn. overlooking the endless valley and turning it up Loud and enjoying the words of this song ! Thanks , M*

[77Flowers77]

I love this song so much! I cry everytime I hear it. Thank you for posting. I needed this tonight!!

[Cosmictalk]

Wheres the real Video One of my Favs

[novielle34]

This is one of my favorite songs. The words speak to me. I am sadly my harshest critic; most of the the time it is "Me is is my enemy, me who beats me up, me who makes the monsters, me who strips my confidence.."

[1wildpoet]

just beautiful - raw and honest

[Missjuls32]

I love her spirit...Love that she shows the gray streaks in her hair!!!! She is absolutely incredible. It takes SOUL!!!

[KaichinBacz]

So much emotion here. This song helps me get through my bar review. That's how much you moved me Ms.Paula Cole. Thank you. ü

[SeverusPump]

She is actually a genius...

[lilmama96810]

this fucken sucks

[NILLUMS009]

amazing 

[africanfox]

This is my first time ever hearing this song today and I must say that note @ 5:55 came from her soul; I really felt it.

[brookeyarber]

Wow, so moving!

[MissDemeanour21]

A wonderful reminder for anyone who believes soul is about a certain genre, or about trying to be someone you're not. Paula is beautiful, authentic and real.

[JSP1839]

if not her, i am crying...

[AJrox51]

I <3 THIS SONG!

[freedom7400]

My all time Favorit song!

[willymon54]

I believe her song is about accountability. It's ME. Sure we can all be victims..but we can all do our best to control our situation.

[PopCulture20]

@willymon54 Yeah I agree. I just got through looking up the meaning of this song and gave the definition my own little spin. this song points out the reason there is so much hate in these modern times, is because individuals are their own worst enemies and TAKE IT OUT on people that wanna be good for society, and the people that wanna be good, succumb to a person's negative perception of them and define themselves by that negative perception. now why can't we have more songs like this today?

[JSP1839]

@PopCulture20 like your interpretation. insightful.

[schultzjj81]

This song reminds me of my mom before she became an alcoholic. Now it is just "Me".

[LoganTravisDark]

Awesome. Gotta admit, that's a rare fine woman.

[chic1126]

i agree. i made me cry too. thanks for posting this!

[JMRWIGGLES]

this song still makes me cry every time i here it.

[stanbalo]

wow! i think she is way better then alicia keys!!!

[chrispycrunchy86]

@stanbalo not better, just as beautiful.

[kylegreerrocks]

thanks so much for posting this great lady! :)

[ECN87]

Beautiful song with so much meaning for me. One of my favorites by lovely Paula

[chocolatemonster1030]

Otterfreak, thanks for loading this one. You have great vids. :'D

[lizzyvance]

Could you fans help me out? I have been listening to her. I love her. What cd should I start with to buy? Every song I have listened to me really like.

[zwithgol]

@lizzyvance The album that this song was on was This Fire. That album also has "I Don't Want to Wait" aka the seem song from Dawson's Creek. This fire is the one most are familiar with I would guess.

[kylegreerrocks]

this fire is the best i think

[macksboy87]

get Tiger FIRST,then Harbinger,,,,then Amen!!!!!!!!!

[words12345]

I love Paula Cole. What a beautiful voice... beautiful woman too...

[mistical1000]

<Grande Paula

[iHeartCharmed]

This song is absolutely amazing. Oh my god.

[tom2002a]

wonderful

[jmjs500]

One of my favorites of hers. If you don't like it, or think she is off key, don't bother to comment, or listen to Tom Waits either.

[Silverwolf4099]

@jmjs500

See..I totally agree with you. Maybe she is "off key" to some peoples ears, but to me, that is pure perfection. It brings an emotion to the song that so many artists don't have these days. Yes, totally agree with you.

[turntapzap]

She is great. She has it in spades!

[wendykk300]

this is a comment to:the disabled diaper....you don't know shit, you dumbass....if i even thought u could dream a song this great....this passionate,....i'd fuckin sure be scared of youl....you must b 10 or 11 yrs old

[vicdiazcr]

Paula es increible... lastima que esta tan retirada...

[AmielRocker]

Paula Please make more Records like "This Fire" and "Amen"

I love your passionate and cool style!

[Thedisableddiaper]

ouch my ears. Clearly this fugly woman needs studio magic to perform, her singing is awful, she sings off key. Absolute shit

[crimsonsmirk]

Congratulations, you know the term "off key". Now please learn what it means as well and be quiet while adults are talking. Thanks.

[AnjektusStudio]

Yes. You are right.

[joeglimmix]

off key? dumb faggot

[PsYcHoFaB]

Guess what? You're mom's fugly and you're mindset is off key.

[jennygirl1st]

this song has a very profound place in my life-love to sing this at the top of my lungs and everytime I do, I always cry at the same place in the song. so powerful!

[saviorock]

Eu sou apaixonado por PAULA COLE!!

FANTASTICA!! LINDA!!

[welchsuccess1]

That's my girl.....love you Paula and you still rock........we need more!!! You still rock and look beautiful and radiant since marriage and childbirth!! Congrats! Hopefully the monsters have subsided some!!!

[Cubby31]

beautiful song and person--in honor of it i sang an acapella version and did her proud i think :) check it out, love to paula! namaste

[Babooshko]

How passionate and full of beauty this performance is. So simple, so true.

[yongadog]

If this ain't the heir apparent to Laura Nyro, I don't know who is.

[tambyrlane]

This song got me through the darkest period of my life. Thanks,Paula.

[pheenix42]

same here, tambyrlane...I couldn't figure out how to verbalize how I felt, and then I heard this.

Wow.

[12thLeveIWizardKing]

Beautiful song.

[sweepycam]

I used to feel so depressed, scared, alone and strange. Thank GOD I don't feel that way anymore. I thank her for sharing this song during that time in my life. Getting away from my ex husband was the best thing I could have ever done!

[waybeyondthepale]

this song is one of my all-time favorites. years can go by, and then some brutal sunday morning finds me singing it like it were my soulcry.

[randomsoprano85]

i totally agree and know what you mean...

[jennygirl1st]

well said-it is my 'soul's cry too.

[JinglerWannabe]

Lovely! Paula and Joan Osborne are the best! Bravo.

[Johanna3107]

this song gets that melancholy feeling and it's perfect to listen to when im absent-minded. I can find peace in this song and it's deep down my soul i love it over and over again!

[GreenGoldenGirl]

is she crying?

[yogidib]

did a black man start singing at the end?

[GreenGoldenGirl]

not that i know of....

[yogidib]

no-lol-i know--it just sounded like it-lol

[Bicyckle]

I think she is. It really shows how powerful this song is.

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

@GreenGoldenGirl maybe not crying, but she is very emotional when she sings, sign of a great perfromer, not just spitting out the words, but they are coming from the heart and soul.

[GreenGoldenGirl]

nice to listen to good, real music.

[PatchworkDream]

Best song evah!

No matter where I am in my life-this song is always relevant

[LIVingDreams1984]

She saves something during these times. It's so rare.... It is "real" for a change. .. In all this superficial emptyhearted "music" business. ... That's the way.

[sexualgorgeous]

@LIVingDreams1984 well this song was written like over a decade ago.

and yea I LOVE HER

i remember hearing this when i was 15 (im 22) and felt it was like sooo pure, and so deep.i still kinda do

[darysons1]

One of the most soulful and introspective songs I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Paula Cole is a beautiful song writer.

[tacchinooo]

i love this song, she's great
