Tori Amos - Sleeps With Butterflies (Live)

[4ugun6]

perfect!

[yoruichi0808]

awesome! :)

[marmas58ink]

I've heard several versions of this... she never does it quite the same... definitely prefer it on solo piano.

The prettiest I've heard was the version she did on Carson Daly. Doesn't seem to be on Utube. (I have it on tape... but don't know how to get it on to comp. & then online.) If anyone has that version ...please Mr postman...

This song is so beautiful when it's just Tori and the piano.

[clitorides]

Tori looks so beautiful here.

[nmothin]

I feel that the mispronunciation is her way of really using her voice as an instrument. It's more about the sound than the word, which is awesome. However I think her voice is losing its strength since beekeeper and perhaps a little bit of the way she sings now is to make it easier on herself. Thats just my thought on it.

I saw her on an ad for rove and my mum and i had only seen her do big wheel on rove so we were both really excited! Too bad we missed it when it happened. Haha, i think she was one of roves faves lol. yayz go tori!! :3

[KatharineGoldsbrough]

I love the way she mispronounces vowels...It is almost elven tongue!

[lamiaviola]

my fave song from tori!!! mwah!!! i love it!!

i hope i can play this on piano.. im still searching for the free sheets

[allpreciousthings]

I found the book with notes in mthe library :p

[allpreciousthings]

I can scan the muzic for you?

[sarawhittaker8810]

Can you?! that would be awesome :)

[chatterbox1229]

What a great pianist! Everytime I hear a live version of this song done by her---she performs different variations of this. I like this version and how the music flows. I also like her live version (TODAY Live)

I like her singing style. I just found it weird how she pronounces some words with a "u" sound

[spacedoginnebraska]

At first I  thought it was weird how she draws out her vowels, but it really grew on me. She's putting as much emphasis on her lyrics as she possibly can. The woman has so much soul, it's unreal.

[ozabobododo]

I think like Thom Yorke of Radiohead, she mispronounces words to distract the listener from thinking about what she's saying, and letting them feel the emotion of what she's singing. A good example of this would be a beautiful sounding Icelandic band named Sigur Ros. Listen to their song Untitled and it will definitely move you. I have no clue what he is saying but it gives me chills in the way he sings. Youtube it if you have time to kill. It's very slow and soothing just so you know.

[chatterbox1229]

oh yeah.. i have a cd of Sigur Ros. I have this feeling that European singers have this style of enunciating words or changing the pronunciation--- or maybe because they really have a different speaking accent and it reflects in their singing. Hmm.. maybe this is why, before, I thought Tori was European.

[Blomvik]

very good sound and video quality for a youtube video

also Tori is great as always :)

[pipay54]

We love Regina and Tori

[XxXDeathlyHallowsXxX]

so beautiful! i love this song. arnt we lucky that tori amos is on this earth? i love this song is so nice. go tori!

[dany3086]

i love tori! this song is so beautiful.

makes me cry...

[ENeithneYA]

tori is a.w.e.s.o.m.e x3

[ohsinnaman]

it is so ignorant when people compare musical artists.

[kai07]

Regina Spektor is great but Tori Amos is hands down much better!

[PoshNGinger]

Regina Spektor is NOTHING compared to Tori.

[bobwise1977]

tori is a true storyteller...i totally feel this song, one of my favourite tori songs ever!!!

[CCarmen]

ppl who make this sort of comment are just too dumb to realize it's not about competition. each has their talent, and Tori's clearly too fabulous to many in this planet to even grasp it, so...

[Frogbogbogbog]

lol. regina's good but too modern. she'll never have the talent tori has. bai.

[chazymotto126]

well,have you heard any of her songs besides fedelity? bc usually people that state she has a modern type of music. usually only hear that STUPID song.i will give you that tho..shes different.Thats whats to love about her

[Frogbogbogbog]

yes i have all of her albums :) . i really like her, but she's not a Tori.

[modmetal5356]

Regina and Tori are too different to compare.

[kalelian]

I like both Tori and Regina. They're both wonderful artists in their own right. Why does it have to be a competition?

[chazymotto126]

well my comment means..I like regina better..Nothing more.

[zuzanakrajickova]

doesn't she pronounce strange?

i'm from the czech republic so i pronounce terrible but tori's accent sounds strange to me...

[bond373737]

when singing, it is a bit different, she often changes the way she pronounces her vowels, A's as E's, etc... for example, in hey jupiter, "are you gAy" sounds more like "are you geeey" I like it of course :)

[Amarigue]

Simply amazing!!! i love tori

[mistygardens]

most beautiful songwriter EVER, hands down. what a great song. more women should be have this attitude about love!

[sangge]
