Only Tori can 'mess up' and actually make the song better! lol Priceless, and clever. Love all versions of this song but the ad lib and the 'I'm not starting over, my dinner is waiting' .. or blaming anti persperant... lol~ The Total Tori Experience!
Quite obviously she did not forget the lyrics..........the very next lyrics as someone wrote further down......."thought I knew my words so well"......she's a genius!!!
Even with the mess up in the middle this is definitely the best version I have heard of this song. No funky sounding drum cadence or other instruments taking away from the purity of just her voice and the piano.
@texasrwayne31 i think the version on vh1 storytellers is pretty hard to beat... and its true to the original bfp version. plus she looks fucking gorgeous in it.
damn. that would've been such a great version too. hard to find a good version of this song. is it me or does she do a slightly different chord progression whenever she plays this on an electric keyboard? always sounds a little out of whack to my ears... allbeit beautifully so
really? the original album version has it. although the album was released again with a new version of 'tallulah' and it may have also had a version of 'hey jupiter' that didn't have that line. she leaves that line out a lot for some reason.
Yup. "Boys For Pele" was repackaged after the release of the Prof. Wid remix and left off '..Voodoo' in the place of the remix and swapped 'Hey Jupiter' with the Dakota Version and the original "Talula" with 'The Tornado Mix'.
I have both versions of BFP. And I have it on vinyl. She never plays the original tho with the 'thought I knew myself' verse. I've never heard it anyway. The boots I've heard from DDI tour don't have it on either.
oh so you just meant to have never heard it live. i thought you meant you had never heard it at all.
BFP and UTP sound good on vinyl. i bought the other version of BFP with the remixes, but I like the original better.
do you like her newer stuff? i don't feel nearly as connected to her now as i did in the past. she sort of lost me after FTCH. SW was good, but everything since i just can't seem to gel with.
IMO, Tori can do no wrong. She could sing the phonebook and I'd still be totally in love with her music. Although 'Choirgirl' is my fav album, Venus is close behind as is Scarlet. And I LOVE American Doll Posse. It took me ages to get into "The Beekeeper" but now I love it also. Can't wait for the new album
Absolutely. I have seen her three times, and it never fails to be an amazing experience. (On the Dew Drop Inn tour, I even had the privelege of meeting her backstage!)
Nice! I followed her cross country on the Strange Little Tour. I was such an EWF! Dew Drop was the best though! I too was lucky enough to meet her and even had a request played (at least I'd like to think she played it because I asked)! ;) Either way, it was magical. First and best time I've ever heard her do 'Tear In Your Hand' live without the band.
def. one of my fav. Tori videos. she looks beautiful here. I prefer this song on the piano rather than the keyboards but the voice is still stunning. thanks so much for posting.
Yeah, she is a brunette actually. Funny thing is that if you listen to the song "Take To The Sky", one of the lines goes: "I dyed my hair red today..."
I'm native american and I have green eyes and curly hair. Many Cherokees have blue eyes. That doesn't mean they aren't native americans. I'm dark and my sister is pretty light and we have the same parents. What do you think native americans look like anyway?
Not too surprising, considering people are mixing so much today. Soon American-Indians/Native-Americans will commonly have blue eyes and blond hair like many Anglos, and many Anglos will have dark brown eyes and hair. I'm dominantly German but have brunette hair and dark hazel/brown eyes (depending on the light).
It's on a compilation called "Forgotten Earthquakes" (it features all the B-Sides from Little Earthquakes). Also, about the Native American heritage, that's one of the motives that moved her to write the record "Scarlet's Walk" :D
But she and her mother have very light skin, etc? They don't even have brown eyes..I don't get how they can have this heritage when it doesn't look that way at all..
Her imperfections are what make her so delightfuly perfect! And it's a "real" performance. No back track vocals and all that studio stuff. I love her! Woot!
OMFG!!!
