  • Rare, classy showmanship for the ages, with restrained energy and lyrical control, putting the genius and power of the material, and the listener's experience, above a lesser performer's ostentious self, in the same league as Roy Orbison.

  • the band performs (well used to) this every few nights - over and over - yet the emotion in this performance from Chrissy is overwhelming. she is really singing from the heart. modern artists would not know what that means, society has robbed them of it!!

  • Like this cause I can see Chrissie's pretty eyes.

  • This must be the HBO concert. I remember it

  • Chrissie is, and always has been a goddess! Taylor who??? Puhleeze!

  • you needed chrissie more than you knew

    your pretender sound was all about her voice

    you would have been a normal band without her

    she made - well she got it for you.

    otherwise a good but you know normal band
