Natalie Merchant - Just Can't Last

[00stupid1]

alot more than most people have/get

[00stupid1]

letterman the least of their crimes it wont last and you will get what you recieved in cash!

[spunright]

I love Natalie.

[taylortremor]

That woman........damn  damn damn damn shes perfect...

[Jim1971a]

The sound is not set up right for her voice. She should have her sound person talk to Lady Gaga's sound person.

[tellygz]

yes, that voice! the resonance...thank you, Natalie.

[geronimoallman16]

She's so unique, there are no words to describe the way her music makes me feel. Yes it feels like she's singing for me.

[kocean1]

Dave is in love with Natalie.

[LostFREEDOM]

I miss you baby !!

[peenyuh]

Dave is a fuck-ass. Too bad this performance was on his show.

[Alphabex8]

@peenyuh a fuck-ass, really? Dave is cool, its Leno I have a real problem with.

[peenyuh]

@Alphabex8 Actually, fuck-ass was a bit harsh. No excuses. I don't much care for Leno either. Sorry I interrupted. =)

[Alphabex8]

@peenyuh fuck-ass is a funny name to call someone, though

[guilhermetude]

I profoundly believe that she's a genius. And that she sings to me every-f*ing-time.

[cedrito]

ouaaahhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[80Madness]

She's truly a georgeus, wonderful, unique human being!

[ZarlaCrepsley13]

Natalie is abousolutely gorgeous in this video!!!! I really wish she didnt put her hand on her face in the middle of the song, that just blew me away!!! I love this song wow i just keep finding more songs from this beautiful woman!!! Amazing!!!

[gaizkaenbcn]

UUUaaaaauuuuu. Great!!!!! I miss you Merchant!!!!! Where are you!?

[jerryrigging]

great post thank you

[shippudenfanatic]

Her voice reminds me of Shakira...

[PhilAroundhits]

Wow ! She has the kind of voice you can never get enough. Simple but soulful.

[MrJackieAbby]

Que voz, indeed! Le ultima por mi. He vista ella las dos en Houston y Austin y ya esta mi favorita de todo por siempre!

La Guera

[edumelomano]

que voz de esta mujer... buena Natalie.

[TheJtmm]

absolute angle

[idiotjim]

This girl is truly wonderful. Such generosity and stamina and maturity in a way you rarely see at all...im in aw...im in love...i got streanght to live...thank you (im seven months older than you hi hiI)

[dbsizzle]

Natalie RULZ!!!!!

[mesquiteguy1221]

@dbsizzle Yeah she was HERE in Big D ( Dallas ) last week and I was not able to go to the concert AAARRRGGGG

[PaladinX12]

I got a chance to attend her concert here in Dallas and I must say she was awesome. She really gave the crowd their moneys worth.

Natalie still looks the same (flawless) and her vocals are just incredible.

The first time that I saw her perform live was at the old Bronco Bowl in Oak Cliff. She put on a stunning performance that night also...

[100diveone]

wunderkind with angel voice, intelligence transformed into beauty!

[doublevelvet]

Her new double album is released now. She is doing a European tour. I will see her in Amsterdam in May, and she will be in Paris in June.

[sivvybee]

She was so good live tonight here in LA. She looked like she had fun . Has a huge passion for poetry. I don't believe I have seen a better singer live and I have seen many.

[MrArtudtoo]

At the very end she says "I'll bet security won't let me in". lol luv ya Natalie

[urb4in]

@MrArtudtoo

why did she say that?

[MrArtudtoo]

@urb4in I think because David Letterman doesn't come across as very sincere.

[thud153]

I met her when she was still with the Manicas she would give you the shirt off her back for you she is the most down to earth person in the world. Love her and her voice.

[mcraygb]

Watch Natalie on the Jay Leno show on April 21st, 2010.

Be There !!

[yunyi2009gmail]

@mcraygb thanks! i will be there!

[msstevie1951]

She has one of the most uniquely beautiful voices ever,lovely lady. ♥

[peacewithin7]

Letterman seems to be just a little

too much for sensitive Natalie, he

is so noisy.

[MrArtudtoo]

@peacewithin7 obviously being foolish he was focused on his script and the camera more than Natalie

[eyeofbast]

Love Natalie...can't stand Letterman - arrogance abounds with him.

[BelisaTheTechie]

Letterman should of had her on all week!

Natalie has one of the best voice that ever came out of a human being. Buy her new album!! Merchant for a grammy!!

[LostFREEDOM]

I love u Baby!!

[YamaZingerQT60]

I heard this song on the Supermarket speakers a few days ago and couldnt believe it. Letterman had her on so many times, he's a womanizing man so he must love her essence, why wouldnt he. That would explain why he was behaving like a kid, I'd surmise that he did want her to come back.

[supe1998]

Natalie has had very excelent drummers in her band prior to this one...Dont like the drumming thats just my opinion...

[PauleQueenie]

good day

[supe1998]

Just to clear this one up..David Letterman is acually a really big fan of her music...And you may think that he was kiddin,But if he could pull it off he would have had her back...And I agree with theMETALDOVE that that drummer sucks bad....And yes I could play them better than that..Yes I do play..Love you Natalie.

[chicagopizza76]

@supe1998  DRUMMER SUCK??

[supe1998]

Just that the drummer couldn't even do a proper rim shot....Thats all....No finess...

[chicagopizza76]

@supe1998 ok I didnt realize you were a drummer that surpassed this one

[ahsajhsdds]

es bella la Natalie

[YamaZingerQT60]

simply Natilous. Dave was being kinda jerky at the end with his be here tomorrow night comment over and over. She is one classy act and I have a good vibe about her upcoming new music release. Im so looking forward to it. She is such a gifted artist, captivating charm and charisma to spare!

[bummercucumber]

Love it.

[3dogsdesert]

Every song she has written and performed is poetry, she is brilliant...angst with hope

[Dilqn86]

amaizing.................

[awsomeness]

I want her!

[canaan1967]

She has Sarah Brightman hair :-)

[oehieze]

ah, the natalie merchant dance :) god love her, she's got to have SOME kind of weakness :)

[theMETALDOVE]

i was certain that i was the only conservative natalie devotee. well. i live in the d.c sububrbs so i got the mid-atlantic area covered. we should spread out, give the allusion there's more of us. maybe acorn could help.

she is the only person in the world who doesn't make me nauseous when she talks about all of the enviro eco bean sprout vegatatian marxst crap.

[springsteel333]

Enviornmentalists aren't marxist, they simply have respect for God's " Green " Earth.

[navyucla]

I've seen her in concert a couple of times. Absolutely breathtaking.

[Giovannisenzaterra]

Only one thing,why has she changed her real surname?

[Giovannisenzaterra]

Ok i can understand it,Mercante specially years ago sounded so "godfather style".

I love her

[Downbythewater73]

I just love her...

[Ghostorchid2]

Unique voice and deep, deep lyrics....

Excellence 5****..

[thankGodforDavidG]

It's round midnight hier in California, and on tv's Classic Video, this Natalie Merchant Song just popped-up and I got stung by her incredible humanity and voice. Of course I knew Natalie but sometimes you just don't cover what you need to cover, and I sicerely oppologize to Natalie. This song is Killer.

[fragglerock5000]

Hey Fox, I actually just heard that comment now, I didn't catch it before... maybe there was some sort of disagreement. and I also noticed that she keeps looking back over her shoulder to someone., maybe in her band?

[theMETALDOVE]

it looks like she's having trouble hearing. the timing was a little off in a couple spots... especially around the refrain. or she could just be looking back at that new drummer and wonering how in the hell she got into the band. i know i wonder.

[fragglerock5000]

Hi Fox, Was your comment in response to my erlier commment about natalie's sort of mood.? just wondering.. and what is she doing these days??

Thanks, Art/ Ottawa Canada

[fragglerock5000]

Tell me it wasn't just me, but the last little bit where she was sitting with Dave., did she look a little annoyed/unhappy.?? to me she sure looked a little miffed.

anyone else notice??

[schubertowitsch]

I would love to know that, too!!!

You´re definitley one of the bes female singers with the most impacting songs...

[paqwa]

Where are you Natalie ?

Please don't tell me you retired.

I miss that beautiful voice and that soft sexy way about you !

[rodsobe]

she now sells fake LV handbags in NYC.

[buckeyegirl1113]

@paqwa she has a new CD coming out this tuesday =)

[BurmeseSamosa]

@paqwa Yes she's good!!



[uptown1081]

She is apsolutly the (BEST) and I also love Dave Lettermen, what can I say. This woman can play nearly every axe there is. Isn't that something else ? Not to mention that VOICE. Oh' also I hate when people refer to her and her music as chick music... don't you feel as I do on that topic, just courius ?? Also I would haveto agree sandlerfan 100 Turner was wonderful.

Thanks My friends,

Leslie Broussard

[fragglerock5000]

Hi Leslie, I just thought I would say hi to you from up here is Ottawa Canada. not much new here, How bout down there?

Take Care, Arthur

[noticeeverything]

this is a great copy of this tune by her too bad that loser Letterman is in it. thanks for posting notwithstanding

[barques95]

She's hot in a sexy-librarian sort of way. Her voice is uniquely amazing.

[lebarosky]

@barques95: uh if your typical librarian had those eyes and that skin the number of patrons would grow quite rapidly.

[RachelEMacD]

@barques95 that's so cute: "sexy librarian" She is awesome! 

[59penrod]

@RachelEMacD She's very pretty up close in person; Monday night my wife and I were walking on Stuart Street in the Theater District in Boston to get a bite to eat before attending her concert at the Wilber Theater a block away; she walked right past us on the sidewalk with a woman next to her, possibly her violinist. Her hair was down and slightly frizzy, but when she walked onstage it was held up and had a flower in it; she released it and let it down again halfway through the concert.

[tom2002a]

For soundmen only - I think her mic's a bit hot in the first 45 seconds

[Glacier2kx]

I miss her old guitar player. I mean, this guy is fantastic but I always though it was great that she had a female guitar player who could absolutely shred. i just loved that girl's styling.

Anyone know who she is and whether or not she might be playing anymore?

[sandlerfan100]

The guitarist on Tigerlily who played that great intro to WOnder is Jennifer Turner! She rocks!!

[fragglerock5000]

Yeah, she was cool.  and good looking too. what is she doing now??

[zenarrrow]

I want a McRib, and I hope some latino looking person who can't speak a word of english makes it for me, with a smile on their face.

[sorcerer1975]

wonder when she's gonna release a new album ?

[curiousgeorge555]

She says she likes to do an album every four years or so. She's due. ~cg5

[philochristos]

Natalie can do no wrong.

[lasco85]

She's very attractive

[Schneebuddy]

Dave you are such a dork sometimes, we all know you have a soft spot for Natalie, you should of gave her more time to relax, we would of liked to heard Natalie speak for a bit, sheesh...now look, she has not toured in years, you have to get her on your show again when Natalie is in NYC, we know you can do it.

[flatline626]

She's really changing her vocal style lately, but this has made me decide to look into her more recent work. It's a little daunting, but I'm glad you (the poster) threw this out there. Thanks for giving me a bit of hope for her solo work again :)

[PALACETA]

ME ENCANTA SU VOZ SU ESTILO MUY FRESH

[curtiszach]

amazing

[ireloyd]

hahaha theme song for béan an ti!! whopper lol

[Storolf]

[rserling]

Storolf, she said, "I'll bet security won't let me in!" lol

[elrauller]

[chattycassie]

I hope she tours again... I would buy front row tickets within the first 10 mins! She has great performances... only been to 3 of her concerts and I am 19, I was raised listening to her music lol and I can never get enough of it!

[NonRider]

[candyluvmemphis11]

Comment on this video

[2ndcxry]

I adore that sound..great

[allteesup1]

She is so uniquely beautiful in a way I cant even understand.

[ArielJeral]

Beautiful Song, Takes me Back to 2001

[babygotgoing]

She is so gorgeous.

And that look on her face was priceless. Hahaha.

[DJGlassy]

She says "I bet security won't let me in."

[globalpiracy]

I think she says something about having security....I love Natalie Merchant, she is a Goddess

[DJGlassy]

She says "I bet security won't let me in."

[ekkona07]

what does she say at the very end after dave says "who you will be able to see here tomorrow night as well."??

Natalie looked rather annoyed with him overall. He IS an annoying man, but I hope Natalie isn't that high maintenance.

[diverrboy]

she was very sick that night, i remember that. she came the next night and did build a levee

[gypsyfw]

Always amazing, always.

[BCraingirl]

I love her vibrato, it's so lovely!

[showtyme44]

i am looking for carniva where she is sining in a small culb and candles also because the night a early version she is wearing black , i saved them now there are gone

thanks folks

[pakibukas]

Let go of my Hand Dave.

Anybody out there with a 10,000 maniacs sheet music

do send them to me. we'll trade!!!

[juicr500]

That's funny! Did you see the expression on her face when he wouldn't let go? Priceless.

[ericineffible]

Thank you Natalie, I'm a believer.

[jomaximo2000]

Natilie is total beautifull is wonder love Natalie

[ArielJeral]

It brings me good memories from 2001, I love this song

[Zeldovich]

Her songs are stale. Nice voice and singing, but she could use some fresh songs.

[hipperlivia]

wow ur a fag i think her voice is one of the best! she's so amazing! especially her song , My Skin! lol

olivia

xox

[tita4ewa]

Wow you're a fan and ingorant and a biggot! I'm a "fag"and I've always loved her voice and songs. Your "skin. Lol".

[DanielSobelman]

A truly special and extraordinary voice.

[junkiego]

AMAZING VOICE!!!! I WANT NEW SONGS!!

[gorills777]

natalie merchant is hot and talented she puts out quality music, Iam a fan.

[wingedsoul]

That is soo true, even I know that and I'm usually only into rock. :)

[elavioncito]

Could somebody upload Space Oditty from live concert in New York during 1999. Thanks. I love this Lady!!!

[maxasianmuscle]

Dear Natalie, please bring back Jennifer Turner -- that organic rock sound is sooo missing in your last few albums. Still love you though...

[wednesday55]

Yeah. The Jennifer Turner days were pretty awesome.

[hideehi]

she is Eve.

[JohGordon1]

10 musicians are working & on world tv / u tube !

are they happy ? I ges yes !

[tmatthews95]

Great stuff, thanks!

[baronmorris]

nice song. cool to see she's still at it, tho it always strikes me as self-indulgent when they have like 10 musicians behind them. I hope she keeps at it tho. she'll make a wise musical prophetess in her later years.

[hugoZhackenbush]

grow up !! 10 musicians self indulgent ??

[baronmorris]

dude get off it. yes. self-indulgent. ever heard of pomp? grandeloquence? (it's not as positive as it sounds) tired performers use that kind of stuff to prop themselves up. some people like tacky things. that's your prerogative. I just happen to have an unapologetically refined and insightful aesthetic. peace out.

[LittleGreen88]

This is like five or six years old. Unfortunately she hasn't released any new material in a long time.

[Zeldovich]

When she was releasing new albums she wasn't releasing new material. All her stuff songs the same.

[pbp720]

Her stuff "songs the same?"

[Zeldovich]

You know what I mean.

[diverrboy]

thank you for sharing! :)
