Kate Miller-Heidke - 2007 Aria Awards Live Performance

[Danthepest1]

Call me ignorant, but I really don't get the Hitler Youth outfits at the end.

[MsAfficionado]

ridiculous amount of talent. Continues to be undervalued by label, country and idiots at JJJ

[JillmanVideo]

1:26 made the darn hair on my arm stand straight up!

Damn she's good!

[Naed607]

She just fist pumped to opera xD haha love her :D

[vcxz67]

Her voice is absolutely awesome!!! I would love to hear a collaboration of Kate Miller-Heidke with Katie Noonan. Now they could make a song that would blow your mind.

[EsterFeldman]

man shes so good live

[phantomtalon556]

Fuck she's good. Damn weirdo tho :P

[aof36]

@phantomtalon556 As a wise lady once told me, "Weird is better than normal."

:D

[phantomtalon556]

@aof36 As a wise lady once told me; "Normal is boring"

[aof36]

@phantomtalon556 Yeah... That's kind of what I meant.

[phantomtalon556]

@aof36 .tnaem I tahw fo dnik s'tahT ...haeY

[InnuendoXP]

the best part of her singing is you can't fake this stuff in autotune. Miley, Britney.etc will NEVER be able to imitate this stuff :P

[adrianbarratt]

I'd like to hear her with the Tiger Lillies, that would be awsome

[CarlizzleCullen]

@Lenomshalingo Well, aren't you lucky then ;)

[beanfilms]

Even with what sounds like some bad mixing and a mic that wasn't as crisp as it could have been, this performance rocks!

[CarlizzleCullen]

I'm wearing this dress to my ball :)

[Chynaash]

Ony of our "talented" ladies of today want to try their pipes against her? hmm? Miley? Rihanna? Lady Gaga? or are you afraid that your secret comes out that you autotune your voices? At least Celine Dion and Charice don't. Kate is in their Legue and you girls are out in the cold. AND THEY USE REAL INSTRAMENTS FOR THEIR MUSIC!!!! ^_^

[5miraky5]

Saw her today at qmf she was Friken brilliant!!

[sickofwaitingtables]

Kate Bush RIP-OFF. It's just blatant.

[tatunkha]

@sickofwaitingtables Kate Bush isn't a trained opera singer though is she. Listen to more of her work. There isn't really any comparison to Kate Bush. Go check Kate MH live cover of Brittany's Toxic then tell what you think.

Haven't you had your break yet?

[1LuvsTimoK]

oh geez this song is just amazing!! she made opera and pop sound good together! good song and great dress :D

[nemesphyxia]

i think its safe to say that there's at least 9 complete fools in the world

[neobriano]

WHY WOULD 9 PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS???jealously strikes a chord hmmm....

[Patrolden]

This woman is gorgeous!! and she has a very good voice!!

[littlewitho]

Kate does not have to do anything to be cool!!

[pclarky]

That voice build up at the end does it for me more than some 80's style Eddy Van Halen Solo ever would, awesome

[myyKINDALOVee]

AMAZINGGG <3

[kernelpaige]

I wet my pants when she starts to sound like an opera singer

[sdimapilis]

I will never buy her albums but I will always go to see her perform live.

She's a great performer and her voice and music sounds so much better live.

[Pacmanjmr]

Don't know about buying her album, but you'd have to be pretty bloody strong to stop me seeing her live! Good show!!!

[euphonaut]

Kate is so awesome. She has such a wide range, and that dress is just adorable. :)

[leenett]

she has a veryy unique voice :)

[tigergirl94]

wow, she could so sing opera. that is awesome. she rocks almost as hard as the veronicas.

[sillybluebearyin]

#tigergirl94

she was actually an opera singer, n wanted to bring opera into pop, so she became a pop singer.

[tigergirl94]

Really??? That is so cool. It worked.

[Lyra369]

an actual singer!

[suffernow97]

yep aussie just like me

[TriSarahTopssss]

@suffernow97 AND ME! XD

[daniissolol]

kate is the best!!:D

i lurvee kate miller-heidke!!!!

[lloossaaww]

I love Kate live!!!

[singasongful1]

Amazing young woman. AUSSIE LIKE ME!

Her mum was actually my primary school teacher.

[taylahyes]

wow that's awesome!! :)

[molelymola]

absolutely amazing :)

[brianofoz]

Same yellow dress?

[Mascraa]

I think it might be =)

[singasongful1]

Kate's awesome. Love her soo much!

[no1phantomfreak]

haha i remember when i heard this live in 07. It was the first id heard of kate and i was like WTH??? I loved opera, didnt mind pop and i was like WOW!! both combined! I remember thinking she was a nutcase, but i liked her, then i heard ducks dont need satellites, and while i thought it was a cool song, i thought she was mental. Recently i heard caught in the crowd and last day of earth, and she is now one of my favourite singers. I love this quirkiness that separates her from everyone else.

[paramore15riot]

absolute best singer ever! i love her! and its awesome that she is Australian like me :)

[no1phantomfreak]

AND ME :)

[enzyme20056]

I was there. omg so good.

[nikkoid]

Pure talent!

[no1phantomfreak]

She reminds me of kristen chenoweth for any wicked fans out there. She is AMAZING (they both are) haha

[pcarf1]

I first saw her over two years ago at a Evermore concert and had no idea who she was, but she was so awesome. Loved her ever since.... And yes she is trained in Opera, I love her quirkiness.

[owlsgohoot]

man she's great.

i adore her dress.

and i love that she can't dance. just wiggle.

HA! great

[JasonJ93]

She's my new favorite singer XD

I have been looking for this song for ages!

I love when she sings opera.

She's so quirky! i love it

[yaskitten]

OMG she's my fave! lolz...i hated opera until i heard it come from her. well maybe not hate, but i never wanted 2 hear it! she makes it awesome. n quirky is cool!

[nclioa]

She has a really amazing voice!!! :D

My fav song of her's though is her adaptation on Physco Killer!!

[DaffenyDilladowable]

omg i thought she wasn't a strong singer until....1:27

[sweetashi]

she's been a trained opera singer since she was young. Her voice is very strong.

[DaffenyDilladowable]

thanx for that...she is a great singer, i really needed the info on that =D

[tjtom14]

God I love u Kate. This is fantastic!!!

[crazymonkey77]

Honestly, I think Kate Miller-Heidke is a very beautiful woman, but doesn't her face look somewhat odd in that wig?

Sorry, a bit off-topic, just wanted to see who else thinks so.

[jennymiller100]

not a wig mate - real hair!

[crazymonkey77]

Is it really?

...That would mean that the other, more sane-looking hair I've seen her wear is a wig, which is just odd.

Though I'm still not convinced. I highly doubt she is an extremely uniform platinum-blonde.

[MsAfficionado]

no wigs buddy - just crazy dos (trust me i know)

[ShazFriend]

i think so she is buitiful but hear she looks off

[chickenandthepie]

isnt that her real hair?

pretty sure it is

[vespertinne]

Wow. Powerhouse kitten!

[KatieD771]

GOD!!! when I first saw this video I absolutely hated it cause I hated that kind of sound....but then I just had to watch it again and again and again and (it sounds weird) but I sort of became addicted to it and now she is one of my favourite singers.

[dancergirl5494]

my uncle (who has brilliant taste in music) first showed me this song and i thought her voice seemed weak then 1:27 came around and i changed my mind :D

she is brilliant :) very catchy songs hehe x

[xarcherx987]

Love when she sings the single line using her classical/opera training, all the other singers getting awards must have though "gee...wish i could do that".

[Obiwankenobi15]

U should try singing it and playing the drums or bass at the same time lol

[PatrickWeylandSmith]

i love this song and i love kate miller-heidke but the violin really annoys me doing the main riff...i guess its harder on keys

[AllegraVivace]

Queen of Popra

[gxs22654]

she's the only reason why i watched the arias

[DAM1ANLESL1E]

I have been looking for Kate since I saw her on the Aria's but I couldn't remember who she was.

Now that I have found her I'm off to buy her albums. No pirating for this artist.

Unbelievable. I just love her style her voice her presence on stage.

Kate you are Fantastic. Thank you

[amstar97]

BUY THEM!!! WE HAVE GOT THEM ALL> SHE IS A BIT SLOW IN THIS BUT IT IS AWESOME STILL!

Look up this: Kate miller heidke toic.

on that she shits on britney

search this to: Kate Miller-Heidke Career Adice - on rockwiz

[raventhorn86]

toic meaning Toxic for anyone that didn't figure that out :)

[ladivina20f8]

Amen to that! I bought her album today actually! Pity the violin wasn't used on the album for 'Words' - i think it has more 'grunt' than the electric guitar!

[F00D1ES]

normality is SO overrated. I bought my mum 1 of her albums and she listens to it nonstop in the car, which works for me :D. I LOVE her voice, it's unique and refreshing, I've never heard anything like her before and I feel like I've been missing out on something until I heard her sing

[Support4MySingers]

She's like the new Cyndi Lauper is some way's!!!

[Mussso]

Shes one of the only artists who can actually sing =P

[rawrbekaj]

YES SO TRUE

[davey1nonly]

I love her, shes so awesome!

Buy her new album!

[culturevulture123]

her voice is totally operatic, which is awesome! Go Kate!

[lustmyeyes]

Thats cause she used to be an opera singer..

[ababbey]

i was there when she did this performance.. soooo good!!!

[amandalovehsoes]

59 seconds...couldnt do it man...

[pandymoose]

HOT!!!!!!!!!

[Kyuubi424]

I think Katie was the most original & refreshingly different artist to perform at the ARIAS last year - along with Operator Please & Sneaky Sound System. Is just me or does she remind one of a cross between a young Cyndi Lauper & Lene Lovich. She's so unusual!

[xenokyle]

Totally agree with you!

I would have said Lene Lovich and Kate Bush..... sound wise anyway.

I can see Cyndi in her look tho.

[brainfreeze4eva]

it sounds a little bit like she has a cold

[toans1]

what annoys me is that when i went to parra park and saw her play everyone was laughing at her unique opratic talent, but now.. things have changed, she is one of australia's leadinf female recording artists and she is an awsome vocalist

[Liliensternus]

She is phenomenal, Words is a brilliant song which I simply can't hear often enough at the moment. And she's a hottie (and Aussie) to boot! :)

[brianpurnell]

saw her at apollo bay music festival

so gooooodddd

at the apollo bay music festival she walked past and accidentally knocked into me making me dropp my potato cake so she gave me money to buy me another one...didnt even realise it was her to later....thought u'd wanna know lol

[OritaEdi]

lol, those potato cakes were awesome. it was like the only thing i ate the whole weekend

[wtchnvds9]

that was amazing.

she has the most amazing pitch ever.

and she hits the notes perfectly.

and she doesnt lip-synch.

OMG!!!!!!!!

amazing.

i love kate miller heidke.

period.

[CheLLe140]

i love that she and her voice is so different! and its cool how she has that whole wacky alice in wonderland thing going on hahaha ;P

[DarkDeathGothicRose]

Fantastic. Loved it. Her singing is so hot. She's now my fave singer. Loved it.

[luvehart]

omg,, i LOVE this tallented artists so much

Kate Miller-Heidke!!

rox my sox

and i really wanna c her live

adn is that a wig she weras

hoo cares her hair always awsumm!! :D

[fridaysuicide]

its her real hair isnt it awesome i so want that hair cut, and she crazy live its the best if you ever get the chance to see her jump at it cause its mind blowing

[fridaysuicide]

its her real hair isnt it awesome i so want that hair cut, and she crazy live its the best if you ever get the chance to see her jump at it cause its mind blowing

[GraceEllen22]

Kate Miller-Heidke is probably one of my "role models", as well as Brianna Carpenter (Aust Idol 2007)

Shame she left the show so early.

But, GO KATE!

YOU ROCK!!!

[raJn33sh]

lol..wtf ..iz this is a song..GO AUSSIES ..LOL

[pigbaloney111]

absolutely brilliant

[jaseyboy]

Good grief! I leave the country for a year and totally miss the emergence of this refreshingly interesting and unique Australian artist. We need more musicians who do something just that bit different (and doesn't hurt if they're slightly batty too, hehe). Very impressive!

[Shockmaster83]

have a go yaself mullins let 20-000 ppl watch u ASSHOLE

[rickoo67]

i saw her at the corin bank festival on sunday she rocks i love her

[ferral75]

I saw Kate last night at the Adelaide Fringe and she was AWESOME! This song is my fav. Truly talented

[xbalsamoloverx]

pretty thats the best performance i have ever seen on the arias!!!

[tozzdogg]

yea well IIIII friggen love this song.

[markeatcheez]

I wish all her songs were as ambitious as "Words." She could've been like a female albeit toned down version of The Blood Brothers. Psycho Killer is probably the best one she's done though, imo.

[AVAmarc182]

she is such an amazing vocalist. Australia is lucky to have her

[Mullins711]

wow.. not much singers are that shit live.

[mattymeister]

not much retards have shit grammar like you do

[pkparamore]

wierd dude

[pkparamore]

can u ppl honestly hear her?!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pkparamore]

worst singer ever

[12345random67890]

Her voice sounds a bit muffled...

Love KM-H!! She's such such an amazing artist.

Love how she did this a bit differently, but instrumentally, I think I prefer the album version.

Still, amazing performance.

[ned2one]

dude, she has an awesome voice, she just experiments, I saw her live in Sydney for Australia day, she's feckin awesome

[meehork]

im becoming a bit of a fan since she did the duet with paul dempsey, shes so cool this song is amazing

[Mullins711]

worst singer in the world.

[deicidechild]

wtf! are you on pills, i wnt to see you sing mother fucking opera man, and i want you to make a video singing this fucking song perfect other wise stfu

[jodes2]

God no - she's a gem!

Someone like her is so rare, and it's awesome.

She's great.

[displacedcynic]

Nobody is forcing you to watch the video, so why are you complaining? Kate Miller-Heidke is very tallented. If you don't like it, don't watch it. That is all.

[dalisene]

I reckon the recorded version sounds better than the live version (by instruments).

Kate's voice always sounds great always :)

[TinaTMC]

Yay! someone with style and a weird personality! I'm tired of boring singers AND slutty singers! 3 cheers for Kate and Missy and Alanis!! :)

[creativegta]

this son gis kick ass but i like the music vid better coz i hae live performances but i cant find the music video just crappy live performances

[zacattackenigma]

love kate miller-heidke simply brilliant

[bojosoto]

steve pope is a sick drummer!

[ellabella270]

ok 1:27 is amazing..just busting out in opera! She really is amazing.

[mistee89]

my gosh, she's so weird but interesting. she captues every moment of your attention

[Rosky12]

She is a fantasticaly weird singer, I love her!....If she was a gimmick wouldn't that mean she was a manstream, famous, talentless singer like Britney?

[Gweznizzle]

i cant seem to find the gimmick? is it that she incorporates an opera style of singing? or the rising platform? or..... a yellow dress? i'm at a loss. i'm leaning towards the opra being the gimmick talked about, but then, how is opera a gimmick? doesn't make sense unless you ignore a large mart of musical history, which is blatantly naive, and no one youtube, or any discussion forum online is naive....

[cidgirl93]

He obviously thinks that anyone who isn't a Girls Aloud/Britney clone is a "gimmick".

I LOVE KM-H!!

[firstredmoon]

not everything different is a gimmick!

kate is awesome. she is the best live performer i've ever seen.

[cidgirl93]

I love it when she does her little opera bits. The end is just incredible.

[Knorkzer]

Telegram is better then Little Eve, if she was recogonised when she released her E.P then people wouldn't be bagging her because they would know that she is a talent. She is amazing, such an amazing voice, Kate Miller-Heidke, I get angry when people file your cd wrong in my shop just because I love you so much

[cidgirl93]

calm down love!

[cidgirl93]

She sends shivers down my spine.

[cidgirl93]

How can anyone say she's a gimmick? Just because she is different doesn't make her a gimmick. So music is best if it's all the same? What a dumbass u r gracecharmindert. Widen your prospective a bit mate.

[InYourAbsence]

Argh, I love her! She's so damn quirky.

[gracecharmander]

okay, i figure we need a voice of reason here.

yes, she's bringing something different to the dull mainstream music scene of australia.

yes, she's classically trained.

however, over and above all this, she's a gimmick.

[blackadder987654321]

how is this a gimmick... all i see is someone with real talent ... using it! her music is awesome!

[Richaod]

Clearly someone's judging her by a single song...

[myfunny12]

hey smarty pants..have you met her, have you even researched her, have you seen her live, have you ever had a conversation with her?? no u havent so i'm sure that all the kate fans here would rather you go and critique someone else! anyway are u a musical performer or a talent scout are u anyone who would have training it telling if she is a gimmick?? no! she is clearly and uniquely just herself!

[Ozbeatle]

good respone, though I'm sure you know anyone this brilliant is bound to cop criticism. How terrible if EVERYone loved you! lol, :P

Oh, the opera thing totally got me with 'physcho killer'. UNBELIEVABLE. If you havn't..ahhhhhh.....you should.......

[missanthropy19]

a gimmick by whom though? she's totally self made.

[Support4MySingers]

They said the same thing about Cyndi Lauper when she came out in 1984 with "Girls just want to have fun" and more then 20 years later she's still making music. Give the girl some time to showcase her different stly, like Cyndi did! You might end up liking her.

[soccercharles9977]

aweosome violin!!!

[RogueFangee]

Such an awsum voice, Yes great to see/hear something different. Love the opera-esk that pops in here and there.

Great attitude aswell in her singing.

Landshark25- Didnt cut out at 1:02 for me, just went to different camera shot. :)

[RogueFangee]

Landshark25- Didnt cut out at 1:02 for me, just went to different camera shot. :)

[landshark25]

it cuts out at 1:02 ,anyone else have this problem?

[landshark25]

finally someone has done something different,kate is beautiful and so talented her music is awesome and and has that aussie sound ,what a fantastic song.

[CarlaHannah7]

I love her to the max.

[wellidontlikeurface]

shes an amazing singer

[xtinamgln]

a true artist! havent heard bout her before but, got to hear "make it last" and i've been her big fan since.

[pittsy66]

This is AMAZING. I was watching this with a group of people who (because they didn't know who she is) were just slagging her off. Very annoying. However, when she did the opera at the end, they shut the fuck up pretty quickly. Rightly so, she is AMAZING! Also she looks like Asher Keddie from Love My Way!

[knottyboy20]

Awesome...that was phanominal

[park17]

I love how she goes high during some words... like at .25 on...

Sounds dead hot!

[markcohen6969]

That's thanks to her brilliant opera training.

[musicsquid]

wonderful

[trisevo]

she was let down by the band in a big way.

[thedys70]

trisevo - "she was let down by the band in a big way" - what are you talking about? I've seen her live 3 times, and with this ensemble twice. They are all freak musos i can tell ya that much. They let nobody down pal, i can assure you. Dyso

[imluvinit777]

i think shes terrible but at the same time she's intuguing?

[becoolexpress]

Lol

i like her but i like the dancers better

[pixiestitched]

Thanks for putting this up, I have been coming back to look for the aria performance for awhile.

[copfromperth]

me too !

[markcohen6969]

Oh I love her so much. And since she's a trained opera singer, I love her even more.

[kelandgav]

I Love this performance!!!

[fardareismai12]

Absolutely LOVE this. She is amazing!

[chrisp1987]

thanks for uploading. awsome perfomance
