Vanessa Carlton's "Nolita Fairytale" LIVE

[tonalang]

she's one of the few in the industry who has a real talent...unfortunately it doesn't matter,as long as you do what you've been told, you're on..it sucks

[asureviolet]

when she said "you sing that beautifully." she look like a shy lil girl which is so adorable ! 4:17 so cute!

[EmoAnthony91]

I don't think Vanessa cares about promotion or whether her song hits #1. I think she is about making real music and thats it. Rabbits on the Run was financed by her....she did it on her own so I don't think she even likes people trying to put their "finishing touches" on her music. She is just authentic through and through

[xxwhyamistillsingle]

after listening this, i feel so tempted to live there lol the place seems so airy, earthy and just peaceful lol

[JackieEco]

Nolita rocks:)

[BladeAndSoul]

Vanessas new album Rabbits on the Run comes out June 21st and she has a new record label again hopefully this record label will actually promote her.

[LydiaCouette]

Yeah lots of vodka!!!

So funny!

Love vanessa

[futureshit]

Love her!

[TheMehakarp]

Wow she has nice thick muscular legs and moves so nervously. Nice apartment, I liked the red brick walls. This is a nice video, really introduces her life.

[rockavstar]

@TheMehakarp Her legs are pretty thin actually.

[Msmyusxiklaber]

I love her piano! It matches with her furnitures! :))

[XLnotsofunny]

damn it, why did the cameraman have to slowly zoom out from a bunch of trash cans and bags in the beginning of the video

[SilverFadingLove]

poor V, she looks so scared... nervous to admit people like her. dont worry! your amazing V!

[Ohhaifrancesca]

I used to have to walk Victor (dog) every week because of the piano lessons I took from her mother. That dog is so cute, but he humps her mother's dog. lmfao

[VictorHugo289mex]

@Ohhaifrancesca You asnwered my question! : ) "Is that Lord Victor, on the guy's lap??"

[DolceVitaTalia]

vanessa's nolita fairytale is one of my favorite songs...it's not just a song, there's something in that song that inspires me.=) i would rather listen to her songs than of lady gaga...

[rappigonen]

vanessa carlton she is sweet !!

i love her so much.

shes  a cool girl

[musame6]

Im really jealous of her apartment....its really cool :)))

[romgusman]

Vanessa marry me you're sooooo cuteeee <3

wonderful song

[bobthathead3]

I love Vanessa Carlton, so much. Personally, I don't think her voice is the best of the best, outstanding, ya know? But I like that. Her piano playing is amazing, any better singing and the piano would be obsolete. She has that kind of normal sound and I think that's what makes her unique versus all these autotuned fools.

[kteekat]

yay so happy I found this video. Vanessa is so amazing I can't wait for her new album!

[krazyhomevideos]

i love this song NYC is truly magical

[Andbblindo]

Eu gosto muito da Vanessa, pena que eu não entedi muito do que ela disse, mas tudo bem, Vanessa, Quando você volta ao Brasil, Você é linda sabia. (I really like Vanessa, sorry I did not understand much of what she said, but okay, Vanessa, When you return to Brazil, you're beautiful knew.) E você toca muito. (And you play a lot. )

[claire7860]

You spell "Heroes" with an "es" because anything ending with "o" has to end in "es". Way to listen in elementary english dude.

[QueenHilary]

is spelt heros...lol go look you are right the correct spelling is heroes.

[Sunshiny3]

I love nolita fairytale...and i love vanessa carlton!!!

[liebeforYOU]

Oh God. At the end of the video, when mentioning when the album would be in stores, they spelled "Heroes" wrong..

Heros?

ah! but this was beautiful.

[lovehallielove]

she can play piano,can do ballet,can sing :D

[Turnedaround08]

urgh...Irv needs to shut his mouth. Look at Vanessa's expression when he talks...

[happy4life543]

i wish some radio stations would get a clue and play some of vanessa's songs so i could listen to her songs all the timne

[04jhowarth]

BUT HER ALBUMS! xD

[7OhBiteMe7]

yea i think she is

[pinkpie3]

is Vessessa signed w/ Gotti?

[turnip1987]

No, she ditched his ass last year after he failed to deliver promised goods (i.e. promotion for 'heroes & thieves').

As of now, she isn't signed to ANYONE. however, i hope she decides to go indie or even better - release on her own.

[clampandbush]

I love Vanessa's music! I totally love this song, and All I Ask, Twilight, Thousand Miles and Heros and Thievs!!!!!!!!!

[88lezah]

That was so pure!

Amazing!

[Feliscatusbestest]

wow, she's good live. Obviously, it's a different sound then what's on her album, but she's still really good. I think she's so much more talented than other artists because she can sing and dance (ballet) and write music and lyrics and play the piano. Also, she seems to be a nice person to be around personality-wise.

[etitaa]

Oh God, she is just so amzing and funny. Perfect, she is the best. I would love to know that place, it would be amazing,

[rachaboom]

I friggen LOVE her!!! and this song!! she is sooo AMAZING!!! this is out of this WORLD!! i just think sometimes that people that work at the record places computer, not just hers, but all popstars voices, so whenever you hear them live, your expectations are really higher than they should. Even though like hardly anyone could sing as great as they computer the voices. I still think she is amazing, besides the part she holds know, but it still isn't that bad, thats just the worst part.

[ESPERANZA850417]

take the glitz back,i want the soul inst ead...i really love those lyrics !

[ESPERANZA850417]

simply gorgeous...dig her !!!

[whitehousesvc729]

That guy was rite about hearing this song and changing ur mood. wen im having a bad day, i always turn this on my iPod and i feel a little better. I like how that one line of the song was from where they just had that interview! pretty cool

[pianopinkandgreen]

Vanessa Carlton has inspired me to play the piano :) and sing my heart out :D

[IveSeenTwilight]

@pianopinkandgreen Meee Tooo on both accounts! check out my 2 recently uploaded Vanesssa piano covers ;o)

[Euphorianna]

@pianopinkandgreen ha me too. :)

[MsJessicaLo]

that was amazing.

[heymaria123]

GO VANESSA cARLTON!!

[singer4life49]

Wow i really love her voice...she like inspires me...i got to see her in concert a longg time ago..back when she was playing with the goo goo dolls and i just fell in love..she has gotten even better since then! AMAZING!

[JosieJusticeX]

"i" after "e" except after "c" and on special occasions.

[xoxosmiley]

How old is Vannessa Carlton

[kfelao123]

shes 28

[xoxosmiley]

thanks!

she looks younger though

[horsefrankinator]

its good but her voice is getting too deep. it sounds kind of like a man's voice.

[fizzletto]

Are you kidding? Its the highest voice I've heard!

[JosieJusticeX]

I wouldn't say it is the highest, but I agree it isn't low. :)

[OrcaLover7]

ive been in little italy;).. it's little!

[emmariley1980]

i love everything about vanessa

she is so gifted and talented I wish I could see her live someday

[MMares07]

Me too. Me too.Hopefully. *sighs*

[nolitafaerietale]

I really, really love Vanessa Carlton...but vocally, this is kind of a mess. :/

[Jayenwoods]

Yes Vanessa has always struggled somewhat vocally, but i don't care, she is one of my favorite artists, i think this last album of hers was her best lyrics so far, i love every song on the album, especially home and hands on me.

Jayen

[turnip1987]

On this occasion, yes.

But when her tour kicked off, I think her vocals really improved. She sung it quite excellently many times on that tour. Her TV performances were a mess, vocally, but I think that's because she always gets nervous doing those.

[daredevilnroofhopper]

some retard told me the song had something to do with italy

[JacktheRipper414]

She was inspired by a little part of n.y.c. call little Italy... Or north or little Italy

[VCandmeVC]

it does,, lol Nolita: is a north of little italy.

[icepok]

omg.. she's so hot

[KJPatrick1]

check out this live version of nolita fairytale on youtube: VC3 7/31/08

[fxcklabels]

You bitch! That is mean of you to say about VC. She doesn't need to be on the radio for people to appreciate her! She has fans like us to appreciate her and love her and her music. She's awesome and that's that. She's true and her music has meaning unlike other singers who don't even sing.

[Euphorianna]

Well said, and hopefullly one day other people will see that and she'll get the attention she deserves. She's an artist not a sell out.

[joysquirt87]

i wish i could go to nolita, ny and visit Vanessa Carlton... love her... (^_*)

[kakakakatrina]

I love her voice is actally naturally good, not like Miley Cyrus's voice. Her's is actually electronically altered.

[darkangel364]

loved her in san jose :)

[PattehPatrick]

The album's supposedly not radio friendly due to it's biography'ness.

Someone said it had to be more mainstream.

Sara Bareilles wrote Love Song.

Not someone else.

So she would have to hire Sara in order to be on the radio, and Sara wasn't a "someone" when she wrote it, kinda like Vanessa with A Thousand Miles.

Plus, either one of them would have to go across the US in order to meet each other.

XP

[cherryslean]

yer right sister my arse

any way- vanessa can play a piano and sing at the same time i think the song is good but not amazing the true fame is from the piano bit which love plus she writes her own songs unlike some top charters and they have true meaning .....x

[candimichelle96]

i love vanessa carlton. shes my sister. my name is gwen. but i like the wrestler candice michelle. jeff hardy rulez!!!!!!!!!!

[fxcklabels]

sister?! uh-huh, yeah, keep on dreaming... Vanessa is not your sister, but she is awesome!

[turnip1987]

Gwen doesn't like talking about her sister, so NEXT.

[wingrider9696]

i know, look at the other videos that are by INCrecords, only ONE more video on vanessa, everything else is ashanti and lloyd, thats just not fair

[eileenmelis]

i dont care what the hell u are saying, shes great she doesnt need to been on the radio, bitch!

[turnip1987]

That isn't true.

She didn't blow it - The Inc blew it by not promoting the album.

"Nolita Fairytale" and "Hands On Me" all had the potential to be as big as, if not bigger, than "Love Song".

Vanessa doesn't make her music for the radio - she makes it for the fans. And while she may wish she had the same level of success that she did when 'BNN' came out (although, I don't think she does), it isn't imperative for her to have it.

She's just a chick that likes making music.

[taztheduckhead]

@turnip1987 exactly!

in the nolita song, she sings " spent the last two years getting to what's real" which just shows that she knows that fame and fortune aren't important, she's just doing what she loves.

[violetgirl1996]

@turnip1987 yeah u'r all right about that but one thing- vanessa is not a chick. she is a woman. lol she doesn't like being called a chick. especially not "the chick who makes music".

[GESCUTIA]

she is amazing

[ohohohno]

irv a fucking hoe. he worked with ashanti? explains why he wanted the title 'fairytale'. nolita fairytale is way better.

[iluvvanessacarlton]

Dear Irv

Step up your game promoting Vanessa, you talk about how wonderful she is [ I agree] but you barely have your team at the inc promote her, her songs aren't getting anything and its unfair to have her beautiful music fade away. Hands on me lost 100 plays in a week, and is not on MTV or VH1 at all, you as her record label should do something about this! please help, we all wish her success, and she deserves it!

shelby

[turnip1987]

Took the words right outta my mouth!!!

[jolster22]

Amazing video, I was wondering what she meant by Nolita Fairytale and this explains it marvelously!, Vanessa is great. I adore u.

[cheezaypizza]

how old is she? she's awesome!!! i want to learn this soooonnnngggg!! who's stevie?

[mrsmcfarland]

Stevie Knicks from Fleetwood Mac. they went on tour together.

[turnip1987]

Stevie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac.

She stopped Vanessa quitting the music industry and told her she needs to keep fighting the fight for singer/song-writers.

They also toured together and are good friends.

[cheezaypizza]

how old is she? she's awesome!!! i want to learn this soooonnnngggg!! who's stevie?

[KatieSparkle1001]

i love her personality

[KatieSparkle1001]

i love love love love vanessa carlton. omg

[Tia1141]

i don't have a problem with vanessa carlton but i do have on with irv gotti, watch out vanessa carlton he might try to lie on u like he did ashanti which was wrong

[xoxILYxITSxSARAHxox]

she is amazingg.

[JacktheRipper414]

She is perfect, I swear!!

[girlthatyoulove2hate]

amazing.. i wish i could play like that xD she does it so effortlessly

[llorenx3]

i love vanessa. she's awesome and she's not the kind of person who's searching for fame. she just wants her music out there. ya know? so different from all those other artists. she's a true artist. this is real music.

[deavine25]

i never like soft music but vanessa really got me..... and now i love heroes and thieves!!!! so muchhhhhhhhhh..............!

[EzequielHeroes]

V.C eu te amoo

[WyeSun]

A very nice video indeed! Thanks for uploading. ;>

[brooke9123]

I like her house(apartment)! + the song!!!!

[yowassupbro]

I LOVE her. I am her biggest fan. I must get to know her. Get ready Vanessa, we will be meeting soon.

[yowassupbro]

I LOVE her. I AM HER BIGGEST FAN. I MUST GET TO KNOW HER. GET READY VANESSA.

[kaleepat]

i´m her biggest fan (^_^)

[kaisertwig]

Vanessa needs to really catch another huge break to continue the singer/songwriter movement that started 5 years ago. I like rock music, but I like Vanessa's music, not because she's the most flashy, or the most technically accurate, but because it's real. She could very well be this generation's James Taylor...or we can hope. To hell with bubblegum pop, keep writing this stuff!

[casiesilverman]

I agree, and bubblegum pop is a perfect word to describe the Ashley Tisdale kind of girls we're hearing this generation.

[toomuchashleytisdale]

OMG she can REALLY HIT THOSE HIGH NOTES! after watching this im tottally in love with her now

[curtainpower]

Good! She's amazing and totally underrated.

[yowassupbro]

Is that her bf?

[curtainpower]

No, her boss.

[AI913]

I think this is different with the Official Video.The last few sentences are different.There are not so many" Nolita fairytale~~"but some are instead of badadadadadada....

[creppie]

I like the song... Rent control, though?? Don't think so. That apartment of hers goes for about $4k/mo.

[Eulypsia]

Everything about her so unique. I love her official website. Go to it it's awesome.

[borisyelten]

this song makes me happy!

[twow3]

her doggie is so cute! :-)

[rockel1986]

She's got some cool style, and I love her quirks.

[SwissMissArtist159]

Okay, looky here DAREALKINGJACKASS! She is NOT a dumb bitch! I have no idea what ur problem is with vanessa, OK?! If u WERENT such a DUMBASS maybe u'd NOTICE!!!

[collective3]

[ddmc061989]

[leonf3rd]

I remember when I heard she signed with The Inc, I was thinking thats weird, but that was great move for The Inc's B/C Vanessa Carlton is Dope!

[mandyrican04]

Very talented just seeing her playing the piano and dancing in the video and dancing and having moves like a ballet dancer and playing the piano. She is talent.

[azrita7018]

she is a ballet dancer... :) :)

[imsofucingtired]

love her

[theVillageLunatic]

That was an amazing performance, considering that she had no electronic sound equipment. I looove the official video for this song.

But why did they send this guy to talk to her? He seems kind of wierd and didn't exactly get her to open up much at first.

[Orange34]

lol... that's Irv Gotti her producer... head of The Inc record label... am I right?? lol I'm pretty sure. It's so weird, he produces like Ja Rule and Ashanti, Vanessa's like a whole different genre... 8P

[gumbostation]

i no when i heard she signed i was like huh shes on murder inc

[gumbostation]

he own the label shes on hes always like that hes a little crazy lol

[Orange34]

She is <3 Her voice got a million times better lol. Live was not always... great 8P But then again, playing and singing is not that easy... well for me haha

[mickeyg2727]

could she possibly be any cuter? i seriously don't think so

[HotRod218]

wow im glad she did this video b/c i never heard of nolita & i do actually live in ny but i wanted to just see it. besides that she's so talented ... even though im not a huge fan of hers, she is amazing an seems down to earth!

[HoneyBflyMonarC]

Her new album Heroes & Thieves IS OUT NOW! BUY it!!!!

[apieceofshanice]

how is she boring? she seems funny to me, writes unborin songs, and sings her heart out.Now she has talent- support her with her new album!

[tamarieroxtheDMV]

she is a very boring person...but iLOOOOOOVE HER MUSIC..just love it

[christiel70]

Incredible! I'm a 37 year old mom and I even get it. You inspire me. Just bought on iTunes.

[egdsf]

Nice video, I can't wait to get a listen of her entire album.

Her apartment looks nice too!

[darkchocoluvr]

That proves that she's naturally good at singing and they don't edit her voice... You're doing sooooooo well Vanessa!

[JeliBeli27]

Her new album is absolutely wonderful, just like her previous ones. I love this woman and her music so much!!! And how cute is her little dachsund sidekick?!

[nacochan]

I love Vanessa! Her new album is AMAZING!!!!!!!

[cowgirlsrox]

she sounds so different in live music videos like she says the words to short but i still love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gameboy11]

I love this girl!!! <3<3<3

b.

[04jhowarth]

She looks really thin and underweight, hope she's ok :S luv her tho! :P

[kamibutterfly713]

I love this song live. I really want to visit Nolita, it's one of those places where it's just living in the moment, like Vanessa said. I love little cafes and everything. NINE DAYS TILL THE RELEASE OF HEROES AND THIEVES!!!!!

[glenbyrneslim]

i love the way she keeps in tuch wit the fanz love her so much Xxx

[Yablonya28]

Irv makes me laugh, he's so weird! Finally a producer who understand Vanessa. The new album in 12 days! Oh my goodness, I'm so excited- I've (we've all, rather) been waiting for a 3rd album :)

[titoinee]

her voice is so natural.. loved it

[Shine715]

I never laughed so hard in my life....THANK YOU IRV.....you put out pop music...you did not put out ILLMATIC...OR REASONABLE DOUBT...yea yeah..I know you knew JAY Z first...but so did JAZ-O ...am I supposed to call him "one of the greatest to do it" NOOOOOO....IT'S OVER IRV...You're wife don't want you and the PUBLIC don't want you...lmao@ calling Vannessa Carlton a "genius" ....Someone buy this fat boy a dictionary!

[love2bsweet]

omg i lov her.

[stephen180984]

wow thats soo good shes def the best female voacal there is such a talent .i think i jsut witnessed true talent.shes a natural! xxx

[Evelyn003]

[ambii001]

[fxcklabels]

[fxcklabels]
