That is performing to the audience......you actually feel the words instead of just listening........

Heaven to me is this: dying and then one day being given the chance to hear this woman and many others live because I wasn't born or wasn't there. That is heaven to me. And have the pleasure of putting my hands together for so much beauty.

@ccoorepowell I absolutely feel that way. You know in some performances she snaps, yells even, at her audience, or at least certain members of her audiences. And although this would normally be very off-putting to see a performer do, it makes sense to me with Nina. What she does is OPEN her soul, translate a raw emotion into a musical experience. It demands respect! I think she knew that more than anyone else.

[ccoorepowell]

Don't you feel like...it's not a performance...she's just sharing her soul while simultaneously killing the piano...even her piano playing looks unintentional....MAD GENIUS!! I I LOVE!

holy shit. WOW. The end is absolutely nuts. especially the way she stands up and saunters to the front of the stage afterwards. that's some RAW stuff. Thank you for this upload!
