#7 The Bird and The Bee - I'm a Broken Heart

[hampsterbb]

I would not mind having them play live around my house xD haha

Beautiful, stunning, gorgeous... <=== Those words don't even come close to the way I want to describe this song.

[sdxn2400134]

This is beautiful. However, the piano overwhelms Inara's soft voice. They could have put the mic closer to her. Nevertheless, this is a lovely rendition.

[Budskrag]

I love the Bird and the Bee. Not the Commercial at the beginning!

[48082531]

This is live not fake I lovin' this band's perform.

[Goblineng]

Good lord... It's just so wonderful. All of these songs literally send shivers down my spine.

[em0girl2]

her voice is my inspiration :) every time I write a song, i think of inara's beautiful vocals :P

[EUbrainwashing]

This is why I love 'The Bird and The Bee'; Inara George has an enjoyable, clean, distinct, slightly sexy and pure natural voice, Greg Kurstin paces his work supremely but never attempts to dominate the sound. And they chose great material that flat6ters the combo well. I cannot stop listening to them.

[TheDriveMaster]

The camara microphone should be close to her and not the piano! That´s why we can´t hear the girl! : |

[amaliaROSEWIN]

U are so freaking amazing.. i love ur voice. Please COME TO INDONESIAAAA !!

[chellya2004]

@amaliaROSEWIN waahh ketemu org Indo yg suka bird and the bee!! yaayyy =D!

[cheerfulhamster]

Although the studio version is an impressive production, I'd love to hear a properly recorded "unplugged" version. A lot of their songs would shine with just a simple piano or guitar & voice arrangement.

[carlynkobley]

Her voice is so indescribably beautiful

[JanMarie1007]

Tender poignant sweet...

[LLLeeeeeeeee]

so wonderful! haha perfect ending ^_^

I love you two <3

[firesong888]

i would pay money to see her live

[LivReynolds]

I can't help but smile everytime I hear her sing.

[Skull951]

@LivReynolds In the good or in the bad way? :)

[LivReynolds]

@Skull951 In the best way possible.

[LikeWiseLikeYou]

She has such a WONDERRFUULL higher register. Her breathy "awwhhhh".. when she's singing the words "I" and "tears." She's a very beautiful singer. I love her in many ways.

[rubiks6]

her voice is really quite ordinary, nothing special - but it somehow has a special magic that is irresistable. I'm glad I discovered the Bird and the Bee.

[zachisthname]

@rubiks6 nothing special... but it has magic <-- sounds pretty special

[poisonedsodapop]

I actually really like the fact that she doesn't have a mic in front of her. Just shows how skilled she is. Bet she'd sing great acapella.

[icanwaitanotherday]

Oh please record this properly- it's SO beautiful!

[KraftwithaK]

Swoon

[ipoonhobos]

she should grow her hair out, it looks kinda funny short. but she sang fantastic

[RedStateRetard]

@ipoonhobos

She reminds me of Flo from progressive insurance with that haircut

[keytoafterlife]

i agree

though, i gotta admit, the weirdness has an appeal...

[rbassmc]

I agree, it is hard to hear her singing, but it is great just the same :)

[bob7258ful]

What's the point of this video when you can't hear the Bird?

[avril14thlove]

ah!!!! inara george's voice is like an angel!!!!!!!! seriously this is amazing

[zinxderobo]

this made me cry. it's too beautiful. thank you bird and the bee. i'm in love with what you do so well.

[terribLarry]

Beautiful...

[S0BeeU]

i LOVE the piano in this song :) :) :)

[PistachioMuffins]

This was AMAZING.

So has anyone found sheet music for this?

[andrecuri]

gorgeous

[LMPPrincess]

it makes me feel lovely inside ^.^

very good for swaying to

[jfpOne23]

you are right Bronx....however you didn't mention that you LOVED BB and KC :-)

[bronxfireradio]

Like watching a young Burt Bacharach and Karen Carpenter....sort of...

[Thatsuperstar]

I love listening to her voice. Im getting chills now.

[glenbenmusicalfreak]

I just can't get tired of listening to this.

[smellmyfarts]

[ac360lover17]

i love this version.. it's soooo pretty

[kochatka87]

She's amazing.....

[juanchaos6000]

She used her foot to hit the low keys

[synthesis12]

what did she do at the end? why did she lift her leg up

[PeppermintFrog]

Truly beautiful...

[SlimD11]

Yup,  B E A utiful.

[kriakin13]

[Ralph2879]

[OpiumRainbows]

[biggymcfinch2]

Really great performance there. Huge shame you can barely hear Inara.

[fostinky]

they are so freaking amazing!!! I'm going to see them live tonight, yay!

[emano1001]

i think u were at the same concert as me! nyc right? carnethy hall?

[fostinky]

yup, Carnegie Hall. they were great, even though poor Irana had a cold. best show i've seen in a while!

[rosirosiful]

@fostinky gosh, I am so jealous :3 I would really like to see them live

[alienacidtechno]

I love this.

[hgbfreak]

i love natural talent. you know its real if they sound impeccable live

[jammawun]

that's beautiful. this is my new favorite band.

[LucasCAPS]

Just. Piano. And voice.

Awe. Some.

And Inara can play with her foot! I LOL'd.

[ckelliej]

now, that's pretty.

[toastedaudiolab]

What's the song that plays during the intro? They played it on Jimmy Kimmel and I want to know the title.

[smokegrapes]

i think is "Love Letter to Japan"

[toastedaudiolab]

That's the one! Thanks Smokegrapes! Cool vid for that song elsewhere on this site.

[twopointfiveltr]

what a beautiful voice.

camera work is awful is like he's having a seizure. this could've been 1000% better. playing again with screen turned off. ok that works

[zeet75]

Amazing! Her voice is like honey.

[snwbunnie2001]

I love you guys so much!!!

[MrsGamgee977]

My fav song on their album.

[Link5523]

Magnificent

[juliabrnvsk]

such a good accomponiment! Does anyone know whether music notes for piano are available to ordinary public? :)

[LucasCAPS]

They sure should be, but I doubt. Maybe cargovideo should'ave focused more on Greg's hands. XD

[clauclau33]

Ooh. Shivers.

This song makes me want to curl up into a ball and cry my eyes out.

Just...beautiful.

[reinedparis]

This version sounds more originality in it ~ it touches my heart

[se26ash]

this woman is amazing

[viiviiixxtactic]

This song is one of the best songs I've ever heard. And this version... is indescribable. Beautiful. And that word is used so often... but this IS beautiful. I'ma learn how to play that on piano. lol.

[GawdMachine]

yes,.. thank you!

[whatisgalen]

I prefer this version. It's much simpler but honestly seems a more endearing and artful song than the album version with all the extra stuff

[roseymusic]

i love u sweet inara. this song is making me teary eyed...

[ArchangelLilith]

sing it again and again and again and again. . .

[Shevaron]

A year later and this is still my #1 favorite song. God I love this harmony- Im a broken heart

[MangoZombie]

Is there are more pure form of musical expression than a lone piano and a sole singing voice? When those two elements can successfully convey the power of a song it says a lot about the composition, even if it owes much to Brian Wilson and Burt Bacarach.

[splatwacker]

I agree, a great example: To Build a home, by Cinematic Orchestra.

[skipperiffic]

love Cinematic Orchestra!

[moo99]

Pourquoi ne donnez-vous pas la chanteuse un microphone? On ne peut pas du tout l'ecouter.

[ni654]

"moo99", si t'as besoin de son, tu peux te diriger vers un bon vieux Métal.

Sinon pour ce groupe, ça l'fait très bien comme ça.

[smoothie6ft3]

like the song but I can barely hear the bee singing.Poor mike job :(

[LucasCAPS]

Indeed, I had to put the volume almost at max.

[lydiashine]

this song has been stuck in my head all day :)

[EasyAl88]

Awesome awesome awesome

[retrovertigoes]

This rocked my world, so cute. And I'm a bleedin' Metal fan?

[jerseygrl4eva]

The Bird and the Bee is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[snappenudel]

[hannaballs]
