Lyrics
with your E's
and your ease
and I do one more
need a lip gloss boost
in your america
is it God's
is it your's
sweet saliva
with your E's
and your ease
and I do one more
I know we're dying
and there's no sign of a parachute
we scream in cathedrals
why can't it be beautiful
why does there
gotta be a sacrifice
just say yes
you little arsonist
you're so sure you can save
every hair on my chest
just say yes
you little arsonist
with your E's
and your ease
and I do one more
well I know we're dying
and there's no sign of a parachute
in this chapel
little chapel of love
can't we get a little grace
and some elegance
no we scream in cathedrals
why can't it be beautiful
why does there
gotta be a sacrifice
Why isn't this woman talked about in the same sentence with greats like Billy Joel, Ray Charles, Elton John, etc.? Her piano playing is more often than not rhythmically quite disconnected from her singing. And both rhythmically and compositionally complex. It's like she has two brains, one for her mouth and one for her hands. Absolutely otherworldly.
She's better than them. They're mainly entertainers. She's an artist.
That's a good question. But I think tori is... screw it, I'll be frank. She's smarter, she's more talented, and she's uncompromising. She doesn't sell out and she doesn't roll over. Tori is a goddess. Those men are mortals.
Maybe because she is a woman ❤
But, seriously. Completely different beast altogether ❤
1000% agreed
took 25 years to finally dive into tori-dom and i'm feeling betrayed by anyone i know who never introduced me to tori. she's a genius.
Criminal offense
Me too! Guess I was too young to really apreciate her. Now I'm obsessed.
You must not have known any hard core ears with feet because I drove people up the WALL with my Tori obsession 😅
She’s a rockstar w/ a piano
@@carriehazel77bahahaha same! I would even prank call and blast Tori in everyone’s ears lol don’t ask lol I had problems ❤ ewf forever!
I have never heard a singer express more anger and pain than she did right here....
Caught a lite sneeze, prescious things, and the waitress are also very fierce.
I know you know how I feel, you shove it in my face. You took my little girl 😢
In response to GoblinGuy333... Really, have you ever heard of Janis Joplin or Amy Lee?
What starts as a great groove turns into an amazingly complex and dramatic masterpiece. This is in my top three of my favorite live musical performances. All on point and Tori's vocals are so absolutely perfect and emotive. You can feel her pain of that miscarriage and her anger at God. Her piano playing on this is just so complex that the fact she can sing at all is amazing. But then she pulls out her secret weapon: the best vocal and breath control in the business. It just melts me every time- Brilliance!!!
The richest palette of shades of her voice.
This.
Didnt know am ciscariage.
Other things going on here, as she explains in her live concerts...... ( Native American Indian boy, and more, as she drives across the desert)... The full meaning of her songs remains inscrutable (and provokes some thought and reflection), and this is a good thing.. :)
Tori will always rock#1I love you Tori David
A miracle in songwriting. Jesus even picked up the bass for this one.
Aka: Jon Evans.
The whole arrangement, darling.
Hahahahahaha
Matt and Jon have such a groove going on this tune. I do appreciate the soundscape guitar because it doesn't cover up any of Tori's absolutely astounding piano. But adds some texture to it all. This woman is one of the quirkiest yet most immensely talented people I have ever seen or heard. Her voice and breath control is simply otherworldly. Like she's got some alien DNA in there. Stunning!
I just liked your comment
8 yrs later
Blimey
I wonder how it felt to have been in her presence and witness this masterpiece of a performance live. Absolute wows.
Everyone probably blacked out.
I saw her in Little Rock, AR without the band. The most amazing concert by far.
I saw her several times in the 90’s and I’ve never seen anything better since. Just magical.
Tori is a modern legend who deserves adoration beyond compare... where is it ? she is a genius, an artist, a firefly, a sprite, a sun and more.
She was so underrated and ahead of her time
Not underrated to me!
she still is
Best version ever. 25 yrs later.
Still the best iieee out there
This is the best version of this song. Chills every time.
i’ve watched this a thousand times and i still cry every single time. her voice, her piano playing, the band, everything is sublime.
Can we talk about how hard Matt plays those drums?! Jesus! 🖤
Songs from the Choirgirl isn't exactly my favorite Tori album. But this live performance may be one of her best. Mad skills. 4:30. She is a master of ultra-powerful rhythm-lead licks.
Genius, goddess, legend. Nobody compares to her
She goes right through every cell in my body. In a good way I mean..
No talent here...Not!!!🙏✌❤🌎🙏👏🆘️👽😎🆘️
Puts me in another dimension!
@@kevinbrown688 Perhaps she is from another dimension herself.
She's your cocaine
I always end up here
Me too
I'm back right now for my fix.
This was so good, despite her personal life issues 1998 was Tori's year. Got to see a few shows of the often sold out Choirgirl tour, she had broken through to be a cult favorite and anyone even halfway cool was talking about her
Wooooowwwwww, this is pure music!!!! You don’t even need lyrics, I personally do not even understand much, yet my body does, my ears, skin is goosebumps, can’t explain. She is a legend, so underrated!
Her ability to play two different keyboards with two hands with syncopated notes on the left and smoother tones on the right and her voice creating amazing sounds independent of both is mind-boggling. Holy Sh.....
@@GoblinGuy333 Absolutely!!! 🎶💜
@@GoblinGuy333 Brilliance 🎶
This is truly magnificent. I don't even have the words to describe how amazing this performance is!! Tori is probably the most under rated musician of the 90s
And her song writing and composition is just stellar as well!
FREAKING AMAZING!!!!! I love the musicians Tori picked for this!! I would have loved to see this in person!!
Friend: "so, what's your type?"
Me: someone who can sing like Tori Amos
Friend: Good luck staying single all your life
It never fails to make me cry...she is a Goddess
I always feel ecstatic when listening to this amazing song
Me too !
A musical goddess. Her talent is so over-looked, its criminal. ♥️♥️♥️ i will forever love and be moved by her music.
Tori's song can evoke every human emotion, Love her.
Brilliant. Every bit of it. That band is tight af right here.
i i e e e (live)
4:29 The piano bridge: OMG this part is so haunting...The way she goes off, omg. She has spoken about having visions of an entity, which inspired her to write this song. But whatever it is that she is directly lashing out at during this part, is perhaps the one to have made the "sacrifice"of taking her "little girl" causing her to have a miscarriage. HOLY FUCK.
* ** * I know you understand, understand the way I feel
YOU SHOVE IT

I know you understand the way I feel but

If you understand, understand the way... Well, then... Why?...
Whhyyy... iiieee eeh eh ie eh ahh iieeh ah * ** *

Whyyy... iiieee eeh eh ie eh eiah iieeh yah

i i e e e
Why does there gotta be a sa-sa-SACRIFICE ??????????
I understand understand the way she made me feel while I was listening to it like something was trying to rip open my skin to get out...but that's tori for you ♡♡♡
she's having a go at God, "I know you understand the way I feel (God gave up "his" son in sacrifice) God knows how painful, and she's asking why knowing the pain he took her little girl. the defiance of this woman is admirable.
Yes! And when she says "You shove it in my face" she must be referring to the endless repetition of the crucifixion story she and many of us have had to endure.
Currently have that bridge on repeat and I can get how good this sounds... I love Tori and I love this! I am dancing inside!!!
This is my favorite part of the live performance and I never knew the lyrics. Thank you for posting. She is amazing!
Not sure whether anyone has noted that she modifies the phonetics: sacri[v]ice, etc.; she does this often in her songs, particularly with vowels
Yes, I think that's part of what makes her music so interesting and different.
This performance is on my short list of favorite things...ever.
She really was incredible back in the day, still love her but nothing quite matches this.
The best live performance EVERRRR
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤❤️🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
this woman~!!😯🤩
I mean it honestly fucking incredible what she can do. this is one of her best performances ever, i think (and so complex!!). i keep watching/listening over n over...n over of late
🤍🎼tout est dit 🤗💚🤍💚👍👍
A genius arrow of a song, fired straight through the heart. It doesn’t get better than this. Thank you Tori
Tori Amos has more artistry, talent in her pinkie toenail than most of today's artists.
Just my opinion. No need to try to change my mind.
I live for this vers.
Wow, what a song and what a musicianship! That longer version sent me to heaven.
She is so awesome 😎 I kind wish she still Performed like this! & gives you chills and oh my gosh I wish I Could do what she does!!! ❤️ The Raisin girl!!
I never fully appreciated Jon’s grooves until I picked up the bass myself almost 2 years ago. Now going back & revisiting many of these old live performances from decades ago with Tori, Jon & Matt….it’s just pure magic.
🎶 💜 🎹 🎸🥁
Just Wow❤
Am I the only one here that likes the shorter hair on Tori?
What a great artist! So free to deliver.
Unworldly version!
this is mind blowing
Um dos maiores gênios da música!
In her prime. I'm so glad I saw her back then.
That was 🔥
You took my little girl!
Sublime.
Christian Scott Exactly.
She really is.
Legend. Pure genius.
TORI FUCKING KICKS ASS!!!!
So amazing.
yaess, o 3 of de babies.
Tori Love😮
Needed this, today. Tori has always had a way of making my Girl Cellz come together.
Should be taught and shown to every high-school band throughout the country. The Nicola Tesla of artistic music!
This is a sublime voice that makes sense with the beauty of Tori !
Tori is the only Goddiss live event known in 50 years.

“Why then? Whyyyyyyyy??”
The question we all ask.
Too awesome.
her voice is haunting
Godlike
Imagine doing all that and then saying Hi everybody how’s it going? Absolute Goddess
I said this many times about this one: this is as close a performance can get to an orgasm and/or death.
I love you, Tori!!!❤
