@hanumanuhanu She over came her stage fright. A lot of people get it. Everyone has to find their nitche and she found hers. She's spectacular and to see her band perform is inviting.

what a sexy sexy lady

@Jaysthename I didn't really like this version either. It made me think she'd started drinking again.

Great song and fantastic performance by Cat (Chan) Power.
Anyone says what the effect used in the lead guitar in this song?
-
Great, great performance! One of my favorites.
P.S. Anyone knows what's the pedal the guitarist's using?
-
@2011favoritos let the woman/artist perform her music HER way.... she did write it after all.... or do you think maybe you could have done it better??

I think this is a song that cannot be modified to live if it steps out too much out of the original version. The deluxe edition is really the best one.
This comment has received too many negative votes show
I'm sure I'll get negatived into oblivion for saying so, but this performance is weak. The original studio version of this song is intimately haunting, and while I appreciate Chan's attempt to translate it into a live performance, it ultimately fails. Stick to the original.

@Jaysthename
It's your opinion, it's ok, you could say it's not better but why say that it's weak, that's what I don't understand.
She made dozens of covers from other artists and the cover is so different and many times better, so why not see this as a own cover of herself, it can be interesting to hear different versions of the same song I think. Not sure the Ed Sullivan theater would be a place to sing Metal Heart the way she used to do it if you see what I mean.
