  • Definitely, after watching this amazing and so touching performance, I'm able to say that she's transcendental. This made me to venerate her even more! :)

  • Beautifully touching... her performance of Caught a Light Sneeze on Saturday Night Live was entrancing.

  • I agree that Tori is another level of artist...

  • What's truly brilliant about this is how is shows the raw, sheer, naked talent of the artist... no fancy video, no lip-synching.... this is the creative process laid so intensely bare. It's almost hard to watch; I feel like I'm being a voyeur. Gawd, just amazing. Thanks Tori for sharing this with everyone...

  • THAT..... was amazing.

  • This was one of the best things she's ever done, it's incredibly good!

  • WOW. Absolute pure talent. Such a marvelous woman. I am a new fan, and am so glad I found her!!! I'll be buying her albums... Starting with this one.

  • Since I found out Tori, the other female singers doesn't seem to me singer anymore, or incomplete in some ways... I always liked Alanis, Dolores... But Tori is absolutely on another planet! She's really a GODDESS.

  • @raisingirl88 Hey, can you share? Who is Delores?

  • @thirtythreeflavors I meant Dolores O' Riordan, the Cranberries singer :)

  • Love this song

  • I'm pretty sure this is the recording that is used on the album. The vocals are like a mirror copy. :) sweet.

  • @LiamMawford It may sound a bit like that, but if you listen to them synced up, it doesn't work. This version is all over the place in terms of tempo. The record version has consistent rhythm due to the percussion tracks, this one doesn't.

  • Could this be the best live performance of Caught a Lite Sneeze? Yes.

  • eargasmic... I think a little bit of pee just came out :0

  • i love that its torture for her not to be playing the piano, so frantic and when she finally can its like a sweet release

  • @stelierx i *so* agree...

  • simply amazing performance.

    

  • boys on the left side, boys on the right side boys in the middle but you're not here

  • OMG!!! Her voice take my breath away! She is sooo amazing!!!

  • So haunting and yet so utterly beautiful..never had shivers up my spine like Tori can produce.. I'm in love!

  • she has a sweetie voice ^^

  • Does anyone know when this was filmed?

  • My goodness...what a beautiful voice...takes your breath away...

  • !!!!!!!!

  • This song introduced me to Tor, back in '96. It's still my favorite song of hers, so dreamy, surreal and melancholic ...

  • wow...tori impresses me so much. this is beautiful. so raw and powerful even with just vocals. love it.

  • this is not sexy as this :

    youtube.com/watch?v=INKJGMd4c8­s

  • this is so wonderful it has me mesmerized

  • Wowow!!!! xox tori

  • I admire her so much for expressing EVERYTHING she is, honoring it even if it's so sensual that it could shock. To me she's authenticity

  • It's cute how she can't sing without playing keys with her fingers :P She mentioned that in the old Song For Eric live performance on VHS

  • The word siren, was written for Tori Amos. So talented & it's such a pleasure to see someone reveling in doing exactly what they were meant to do.

  • Wow. I wonder if she really did the whole first half without a reference pitch. She looks very pleased with herself when then piano finally comes in :)

  • That is a serious piano!

  • prachtig...............

  • her voice is bone chilling

  • why oh WHY wasnt i born a water bottle (@ 0:03)

  • 2:26 did i just cum......

  • Genuinely talented, beautiful and real. No additives Lipsynching or autotune.

  • when I think of beauty, I think of this.

  • Siempre tan profunda .... siempre desde el corazón

  • Why doesn't she play the piano?

    Was this recording for "Boys for Pele"?

    It must be really hard for her to not play the piano. What a relief after touching the keys!

    Beautiful!!!

  • @Shecerka The parts she's not playing the piano are (I believe) the parts where she switches to the harpsichord - so maybe the harpsichord wasn't available.

  • @gaywizzard86

    I know, but on Sessions at West 54th while performing "Caught a Lite Sneeze" she just played Bosendorfer, so I thought "why not here as well?". And also, I'm curious how she can resist to not play the piano. :)

    I'd like to hear acoustic "Caught a Lite Sneeze" on Bosendorfer. Do you maybe know if she has ever performed it?

    Thanks. ;)

  • @Shecerka Re: acoustic "Caught a Lite Sneeze": if you can find a copy, it's on the 2005 Original Bootleg from Boston. If you can't find a copy of that CD, the date is August 21, 2005.

  • @ebromero2 Thanks! I'll try to find it.

  • I love her. She's like a wild beast trapped inside a beautiful siren!!

  • pretty thrilling.

    Amazing song.

  • amazing

  • Outstanding!!!!!

  • Genius.

  • wow imagine being there while she played this, id be a mess *sniff* tissue please!!

  • @PhUTube4Evah NO YOU DIDNT

  • suck on that Regina Spektor!

  • Indeed, a great musician. But, emmaree, she is singing to whatever is being fed through her earphones and laying the piano track when it is time to do so.

  • @morph628 hehe that really is a fun fact and piece by piece is on my book list to buy lol iv'e a lot of tori stuff i need to collect :D!!

  • Comment removed

  • tori, thank you for being who you are....

  • Fantastic.

  • eh, masterpiece..

  • I love how it is so hard for her not to play the piano, while she is singing. It is like the piano is part of her.

  • the piano is part of her,this is those rare things of her we get to see i love it

  • I'm beyond in love with her right at this moment!

  • Fuck... she breaks into that perfectly. Best female musician I've ever witnessed.

  • @kzolotar I reiterate: best musician I've ever witnessed.

  • This is the hardest Tori has EVER hit me and I have been a devoted Toriphile since 1991/92. Went to see her live in 1995. Absolute beauty... Definitely the best 4:08 minutes I can remember spending. (it's probably more like 480 minutes by now, as many times as I've watched this!

  • @solamel

    I wish I could've seen her back in 95! But sadly I was only 5 years old :( But this video is amazing, I've watched it repeatedly and never get tired of it.

  • Yes, you missed an experience there, but she is timeless, you know. She'll go on long after we're all dead and gone don't you think? She hung out at the Brady Theatre day of the show so people could come visit with her before. She may do that still, don't know. She said its cuz her hands hurt a lot after a show so she wanted to hang w/fans b4 show. Incredible day! Does she do that still? I treasure that day so much, I wouldn't trade it for the world! Love U kindred!

  • fuckfuckfuckfuckamazing.

  • She reminds me a little bit of shakira??=3.

    Really good voice!, powerful.

  • Ugh I can't get enough of Tori!

    She sounds perfect here.

    I highly enjoyed this performance.

  • WOW !

  • such a smart and beautiful woman.

  • any one know what this songs about?

  • Men and breaking up with them.

  • It's rumoured to be about the end of a relationship she had with Trent Reznor

  • the creepy part is that she pulled her starting note out of thin air.

  • WOW , i first hear this song from evens blue , but wow ......wow this is like so much better

  • 0:22

  • because of her i started to play piano.

  • i been a huge fan of her music since her very first album y kant tori read!!!!!!!!!!! and i am still in love with her music!! she is just amazing!!!!!!!!!!

  • What is this song about?

  • I'm so thankful to have seen/heard this performance. It's two versions of the same song fused together as perfectly as only Tori could do it. I love her so much, but it sometimes slips my mind for a short time only to be dramatically reminded by such magnificent displays of artistry. Oh, and BIG THANKS to HEREINMYHEAD for the post! That was great!

  • This is wonderful Thanks for sharing!

  • she is simply unique and captivating ...when I see her in concert then it would be ok if I die after.

  • yoruyosun insanı tori

  • She's so amazing.

  • wonderful, she sounds exactly like the original song

  • this was her laying down the track for the album....awesome

  • Brilliant! It's wonderful to see the artistic process. This was raw and pure, which just keeps in sync with her music. This was an absolute joy to watch!

  • i've a question, does she hear the harpsichord in her earphones?

  • Its absolutely no problem that she just sings most of the time. its beautiful. breathtaking.

  • Oh my god. I'll never forget watching this video for the first time. One of the greatest live performances I've seen, ever. So intimate and talented.

    I love how she does the beats with her hands on the piano :). It's like watching her go into a trance.

  • genius!

  • this just made me cry

  • That was pure fucking artistry! 

    Most impressive! What a wonderful treat to hear one of my favourite songs caught thought the artists interpretation.

    THANKS FOR POSTING THIS Hereinmyhead102.

    I mean that from my heart.........

  • This song is amazing don't get me wrong she's clearly a great singer

    but what i don't understand is why isn't she playing the piano

    although it is kinda nice to just hear the vocals

  • It's part of the recording process. She recorded the piano part first and then did the vocal on top of the piano track. It's done that way to get the cleanest tracks possible.

    I'm a musician myself, been through it many times...

  • Oh really ? I actually didn't know that, thanks a lot for the info

    have a nice day :)

  • I gave you a "tomb down" by mistake. Sorry, it was meant to be a "tomb up".

    Really sorry!

  • @RestofYourLifeOff I actually heard she usually records piano and voice together and that there were only a few songs on which she recorded them separately, e.g. Cornflake Girl.

  • Actually, it can be a number of things. If this is the main recording session then this video is obviously depicting the recording of the vocal track it's self .

    On the other hand, if it's post production, this could be overdubbing or multi tracking a duplicate vocal for a thicker layered sound or an alternate B-roll take for adding effectcs to in Pro Tools.

  • This is a recording session for 4 Meter Sessions, a program in the Netherlands. They broadcast the audio on the radio and telecast these videos. This isn't a recording session for Boys for Pele. If you watch 'horses' from this same taping, it says Jan 25, 1996 at the beginning, which is two days after the release of the album.

    In most cases, Tori records it all at once- whatever keyboard she's playing plus voice. Since 1997, she's also tracked live with her band, instead of layering parts.

  • The reason Tori isn't playing the piano except for the bridge is that she didn't have a harpsichord with her to play as she does on the album, so instead she just beat out the rhythms with her hands and played the piano only at the bridge. This was before she came up with the piano- only arrangement of Caught a Lite Sneeze that she's been playing live since 1998.

  • What was she drinking at the begining?, Vodka?

  • That's what I thought.

  • A-MA-ZING!

  • You were wild.

    Where are you now?

  • this song and the art of singing sounds very similar to the one from the movie "mulholland drive" in the night club

  • You mean Rebekah del Rio`s Llorando.You could be right - both on my favorites anyway.

  • there can only be one god...

    And that is this one!!

  • wow.......that messed me up...u dont see that shite everyday...respect!

  • All of the "wannabe artists" of today need to watch this video to see what a REAL artist and talent looks like.

  • God... this is live!!!!!!!!!

  • Artist !!!

    amazing

  • What a great artist !

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaa

  • Her acapella is one of the best I have ever heard in my life - so very unique - so very haunting - so very beautiful - Tori is one of the greatest artists ever.

  • Incredible performance!

    Absolutely stunning!!!!

    I LOVE TORI AMOS & THAT SONG OMG!!!

  • She's very special...

  • there is only One.

  • I miss this Tori.

  • speechless...

    she is always the one.

  • I'll post this everyday if I have to

    TORI'S BEST SONG AND BEST PERFORMANCE !!!!!

  • I LOVE her voice. That's just one thing that I adore about her - her voice is infinitely unique. You will never hear another person sing exactly like her, while so many great voices are so generic and shoot straight to the pop mold. You can tell that her influences are much more intellectual.

  • This is true. That is why she is one of the few female artists I like. And she is also a TRUE artist.

  • LOVE THIS

  • Lol, I can't help but notice how she sounds like she's orgasming when she sings. She's so weird <3

    Amazing voice.

  • Amazing footage. Where did you find it?

  • It's actually ridiculous , how many songs she can play and knows off by heart on the piano :|

  • It's so amazing! I love Tori!!!!WOW

  • "You can't even understand what she's sayin! She's weird." lmao...well then, is she's that weird, she is weird in the best way. Wonderful video. She is truly timeless.
