Amanda Palmer "Will" Live - Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2007

[joeldeden]

Is this where I profess to Amanda Palmer, there is a special place in my heart just for her?

[CreatureofMasquerade]

anyone has the chords for this song?

[cheesecakedeath]

pipe organ win

[djmusicjac]

hi amanda, i enjoyed interviewing you at your production few years ago at edinburgh fringe, glad to add you to my playlist

[funghydresden]

TE amOOO amAnDA!!!

[HIMDarling612]

I'd kill to be in Max's position :D

[pinknpurple1093]

i love how she puts her feet up on either side of the piano ... lol

[WerewolfMorgue]

I have an organ setting on my keyboard, and I always play things similar to this, where I hold down a note for a while and then change it.

I love this song.

[TheQueenOfMediocrity]

this song is so honest and brutal and beautiful, and human. I love it.

I personally believe the recording is more powerful, but it's still beautiful in this context.

[FranzGrrl]

Will was supposed to be on their debut album, and they planned it like that up until the last minute when they took it off...

[ValiumandDolls]

So there is a studio recording somewhere out there? How has this not leaked by now?

[FranzGrrl]

It's on "A is for Accident". It may have been recorded live, as the rest of the album is, but as far as I can tell, I don't hear an audience in the background.

[ValiumandDolls]

quite possible. I haven't listened to A is for Accident for years, I was pretty sure all the tracks on there were live. But not that I recall it does sound pretty polished.

[pumpkin0192]

on A is for Accident, all tracks were live *except* Missed Me, Will and Truce, which were all studio demos from when they were trying to get the album picked up by a record label, I believe.

[xsamglamx]

they can do solo things? they are still together just some songs could do better without drums

[WerewolfMorgue]

That was fucking brilliant.

[NicoleAnachronism]

amandas like me with my friends, all kissy and huggy,

[ValiumandDolls]

its fans like you that are the reason I hate dresden dolls fans. Yes buy the album for their royalties sake but don't come to the concerts and don't think you are tortured, dark, you're just angsty. And please shutup.

"all kissy and huggy".....right..... because none else besides you and amanda kiss and hug their friends...

[missivonmcgowan]

it's snotty little shits like you that make me hate youtube.

[ValiumandDolls]

well you can always fuck off and download your videos else where?

[missivonmcgowan]

If you can generlise on the internet, so can anyone. Your double standards astound me. I am not personally of that breed of Dresden Dolls fan, but I would never tell someone how to act towards or about their favourite bands...It's a very personal thing and it upsets me. If Amanda Palmer doesn't mind it (and as far as I can tell, she needs these fans to sustain her livelihood) then neither should you!!

[ValiumandDolls]

I don't even know why I feel obliged to continue this but I am dying to know what double standards are you talking about. I'm saying yes the dolls livlihood does depend on mass marketing but fans like that could just buy the album and shutup. Theyre embarrassing to fans like you and I. They make the music appear puerile. You read the stupid bitch's comment; "all kissey and huggy" what is this Tickle Me ELmanda Palmer? If you are on the same page as I am I don't see how this doesn't annoy you.

[smellslikechildren1]

Do come to their concerts? How about I'll fucking go where ever the fuck I want to.

[smellslikechildren1]

Don't. Heh?

[friteslikkecr3w]

why isn't she with Brian anymore?

[smellslikechildren1]

She still is.

[alexbt]

I love Will.

[Zambeezo]

Max is gay

[caradenuez]

love heeer

even if she is not with brian playing

this is awsome

[calebzia]

i don't care what any of these assholes say, amanda is amazing and i love her

[StacyWithoutTheE88]

Amen to that!

[orangegirlred]

i can picture it now...

Amanda:Since my song isn't that good and Brian's sick of me, I'll have to have something kitchy...I'll have someone's head between my legs. That will keep the young audience entertained! Max! will you play the base notes for me? With your head between my legs?

Max: Sure, I mean it will be funny.

Amanda: Another mediocre song will find it's way into the light!

[sknywhtboy88]

Will scares the shit out of me.

[natalineko]

my first thought of this was, why is her leg up like that? but then i was too distracted by the performance to wonder why any more.

[lenoirberg]

Amanda you are man

[dresdendolls92]

this is absolutely amazing. i LOVE AMANDA PALMER!! i have it on my ipod.

[squirtgunrobbery]

one of my favs from them.

but, without the drumming, this song falls flat. while still beautiful (amanda can transform her songs successfully into ALMOST anything), it lacks much feeling. her vocals are emotional, but without the pounding, intense momentum of the drums, this song just veers along, not doing much. so, it's not as enjoyable.

[MaireMannix]

"will" makes my cry. it made my cry the first and second time i heard it on the "a is for accident" cd. amanda palmer is an amazing person and musician. thats a fact.

[jobloor]

aw! i love it! i love it so!

[relivevalhalla]

Amazing. As always....

[xPaperBagPrincess]

lol the beggining in frikkin funny,.

[overlycreative]

Always an incredibly provocative performance. True entertainment.
