I love the different live versions I've heard of this song, but I think the best one is one I can't find anywhere.
One of the main distinguishing factors is that after she sings the 'down' part, you hear a large 'woo' in the background from some guy. Other than that (and surprisingly, it doesn't really subtract from it), it is by far the best version I've heard.
She hits every line perfectly, and it has more soul than the commercial one. If they took the 'pop' out of her songs, she'd be huge.
This song was recommended to me by a "friend"! I do wonder what he meant when he did that though?!! Great song, but very sad. And of course we are not crying TheCTh19!!
I used to listen to all these songs when I first went through my breakup. Eventually I found a book on Amazon called "Surviving a breakup: Getting Back With your Ex" by Matthew Mehra. I used to book to fix my relationship. Amazing song though for sure <3
She sang the song with full of emotion and pure soulful harmony. Bless You Sara Bareilles.... You're one of the best vocalist ever. Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Kesha and the likes can't hold a candle to you...
Dear Sara Bareilles plz if you got a spare time, plz guide Lady Gaga to produce at least one song would't say as same as your songs level a little bet lower. cuz if she stays 100 years over her age she wouldn't sing a song like urs.
I'm as much in love with this song as I am with the person it reminds me of... granted, it is a bit old but just found this version and I think I'm two clicks away from breaking that replay button :) thanks Sara for putting together this beautiful masterpiece!
She sounds SO much better singing live than in studio recordings. Raw talent doesn't need such production like that. I think she's safely on the same shelf as Alison Krauss as far as voices go.
My favorite version of this song. I found it when I had this exact thing going on in my life. Amazing how you find a song at the exact moment it's needed. Songs like these are why people say "music is life."
My lord she is just remarkably amazing, talented, lovely, beautiful, and everything else positive you could ever think of! I am fully obssessed with her music at the moment, can't get enough! Just an incredible singer :D
@Squish888 she doesnt get more attention because she isnt dressed like a slut and actually is a classy girl with morals.. sex sells, not talent, it is scrrrrewwed up!!
While I was crushing PRETTY hard on Sara I listened to 'Gravity' for the first time.. and what I thought impossible happened: I fell even deeper in love with her and her amazing voice. What did it for me was the *doooooOOOOOOOooOooOwn oooooo* part. It gives me the chills. Seriously. This woman is simply amazing. I'm obsessed with her and her music.
Wonderfull song - intense performance, beutifull voice..... I do agree; raw & real in the best meaning of the words. Love your music Sara, and the way it makes me feel, how you touch me when I listen to your stories - honest with rare passion and heart.
If you just sit here and listen to this song without any sounds around you, it really is beautiful. She never needs anything else but her voice and an instument and she captivates people. Love this song(:
Honest to god, she could be one of the most incredible artists in the last 20 years. This song is raw, unbridled passion. The high notes she hits had me on the verge of hyperventilation. Every hair on my body was on end for the entirety of the song. She is a pure representation of what real music is. I find it damn near impossible to keep my cursor of the repeat button. I cant get enough.
Love the song. Please take a look at my video I've made with this song. It's a contemporary dance with a beautiful dancer. Think my video is a lot better than the original one without being arrogant.
I really really like the build up to the big down section. She's soooooooo into it and her entry with the keyboard and how gentle it was was a nice contrast to her voice. I really felt what she was singing.
one beautiful song..one beautiful voice...one amazing performance...she manages to feel and show every single beautiful lyric of this song. i just love her. the first time i saw this i cried..it still gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it! great song...great feelings.
Sara! She rocks! I love her. Wished she would share her story and allow people to connect their dots to her on Pocodot - (pocodot dot com) - she rocks. I hear Pocodot is the Facebook killer….
sara bareilles, celin dion and christina aguilera are my role models. Why? because whenever they sing i cry and something in my soul just moves their emotions always seem to connect with mine. they are beautiful. and to anyone who hit the dislike button. you don't know what good singing is and you must be tone deaf and probably a non-musician.

For those you tube addits out there, here's a little tidbit. - How many of your favorite videos (minimum 1000 ratings) actually pull off an up down ratio > 100:1 ?
And if your wondering, no I'm not trying to pull anything funny. Sara and this video deserve it.

Whatever anyone one thinks the song is about, it doesn't really matter if one's right or wrong. It's up to interpretation. Just like a piece of artwork, which...is pretty much what this song and her voice is. <3
Amazzzing artist. She sings my favorite style of music with such passion and honesty.
