You are so talented. You're live versions are almost the exact same as the studio versions. It's very raw. Very authentic. Very...beautiful! Love you! Keep doing what you're doing!
It's funny because at 2:39 she did a little giggle before hitting the note like "I'm about to make this note my bitch" lol I'm amazed how good she can sing this song live.
Personally, I like this version a lot more than the album version. I like how she put more soul into it, and in my ears, she hit those high F#s with a little more ease and they were much clearer. Other than that, all I can say is wow. Job well done Tori! Can't wait to see where God takes you from here. Much more success to come!
I tend to agree. She is not good nor excellent singer but she is truly amazing. She however has certain things working against her. First off us publicity and secondly for me is her vocals. She plays with them and anyone can see that. Not saying she isn't serious or that no one should have fun singing but her effortless voice is just that effortless. When ever I hear her it just sounds playful. That said, she is still amazing and I love her lyrics because of it's truly poetic and truthful nature.
HOW? just how? how can one person own all the range of the piano key board? she sings like the highest note then smoothly sings to the lowest key? HOW TORI?

Honestly, what amazes me the most, is Tori's talent. With every song I hear, I think "hum, this song is great. How will she preform it live?". Then, when I hear the live version, I love it even more. Her voice, the arangements, the meeting between the both of them, the fact that she is dynamic when she preforms... Everything is perfectly placed and seems effortless, although it has nothing but hard work and dedication. And, even though it seems impossible, she keeps getting better and better, somehow. I just... I can't even... Ok, bye. XD
A couple months ago I won a contest to meet Tori but due to some personal events I was unfortunately not able to see her. 💔 It was a once in a lifetime opportunity and sadly I missed it. But i'm really hoping she comes to my city again soon because I am dying to hear her voice live! 💕 She's amazing! Such an inspiration to young girls and boys! Praying for this girl to go big 🙏 I admire her for not being ashamed of the word and glorifying his name. 👏 God bless you Tori!
I get what she's saying. Although it is very "Tori like", in between her style, it's very different from most of her stuff, specially when you hear it live first (as it occurred with me, for example). Then, it just grows within you. Every time you hear it, you start seeing more and more beauty in this song. And then, it gets to a point when you're crazy about it.
there're those singers people say 'whoa they sing so good, just like in the CD'. Then there're you, that are incredible in albums but live is just TOO MUCH, like you're so so so so so good. Omg
This girl needs serious serious recognition from every music industry award ceremony like YESTERDAY. Her songwriting, her voice and her general soul is unbelievable to me.
Okay but like, the confirmation that she can actually sing this song live is EVERYTHING. Most people would assume it's auto-tuned because of how difficult it seems like it would be to sing, but she just SLAYED MY LIFE with this. Howwww can anyone be this talented???? Flawless.
I know most people aren't sold on this song, but personally it's my favourite on the album! I can just imagine sitting on a train, looking out the window, musing on life... it feels so nostalgic. Love it
Love this! So happy you're finally starting to get the recognition you deserve! You're so amazing Tori! Super talented and always so sweet! Can't wait for the next time we meet. Always supporting you!
3:18-3:22.....ugh, I love her slow riffs too, makes it easier to learn hahaha. Even though her fast riffs are more impressive to the ear, the slow ones are very sweet and smooth. Oh, I love being a musician, and a Toraay haha :D
It seems like she can control her voice easily. She can sing whatever she wants. Maybe she can seem to master the art of letting her voice out any-anyway.
SO I OWN THE ALBUM AND I PLAYED THE ALBUM AND THIS AT THE SAME TIME AND EVERYTHING MATCHES UP PERFECTLY LIKE ALL THE VOCALS AND NOTES AND EVERYTHING ITS JUST SO PERFECT!!!!😍😍😍💕💕💕
Tori is seriously coming for everyone on the charts right now. While there are clearly some inspirations in her voice (Alicia Keys, Jojo, etc) she has created a sound all her own that feels 100% authentic. I am so proud to have been a fan of hers through this process :)
I'm always amazed at just how good Tori really sounds. So much voice control! And did anybody notice the neon sign in the background? "Fame is Fleeting" "Perfection is Forever" "Simply Perfect"
Amazing how I love this live version better than the studio version. I don't even understand how this can sound better than the recorded sound. Forever love Tori one of the most pure and REAL talented artists ever.
Your debut cd is so amazing Tori!!!! I cannot stop listening to it!!! My faves are "Expensive," "City Dove," "Unbreakable Smile," "Personal" and "Talk"!!! And obviously I love the radio singles!! Such a great cd!! You go girl!! ; D Love your voice and attitude! Keep on doing your thing!!
I feel like Tori makes her songs so it is impossible for another singer to do a better cover. Her freakin range and riffs, what even. God her voice is cray.
Best fucking female artist of the year 😭❤️ She writes her own songs, she plays her guitar like a pro while singing, can hit those nice high notes with a sweet vibration and strong vocals not just soft💕 I'm in love...m
Ugh she is so amazing! I don't know if you read these comments, Tori. But your music gives me hope! That feels so weird to say because I'm like two years older than you but I love your whole vibe. It inspires me to be the best version of my myself. You've inspired me to stand up for myself and be my true self. Thank you for that. I don't know where I would be without your music. I feel so connected with you though your music. Thank you for sharing your insane talent with the world. It's on my bucket list to see you perform live. I can't thank you enough. I've been listening to you since you performed 'Dear No One' on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. I'm so proud of you and how far you've come! I've had a few rough years in my personal life and your music gave me my soul back. Thank you so much for that.

It's funny because at 2:39 she did a little giggle before hitting the note like "I'm about to make this note my bitch" lol I'm amazed how good she can sing this song live.
We need an acoustic album like nowwwww!!!!
Agreed ×100000000000
Louis Jean Beats That would change the game.
YES PLEASE 👏🏼
Fking YES! I think acoustic is Tori Kelly home ❤️
YES
Personally, I like this version a lot more than the album version. I like how she put more soul into it, and in my ears, she hit those high F#s with a little more ease and they were much clearer. Other than that, all I can say is wow. Job well done Tori! Can't wait to see where God takes you from here. Much more success to come!
Yasssss
I agree with those high notes, but nothing beats the harmonies on "talk" and during the bridge 😍😍😍😍
+maxibloba n-o-t-h-i-n-g ! it's like....aaaaah yesssss!!!

WHY ARE YOUR LIVE VERSION MUCH BETTER THAN THE STUDIO.

One of my favorite songs off the album. This was so perfect!!!
Kathleen Nguyen me too! it grew on me. but why are all her live version better than all of her studio version? hahaha
Ayyyyy Kathleen ;)
key i thought the same thing too.
key Same! I prefer this version too! Something about it is so magical.
+Micah Trostle :)
Her vocal control is EVERYTHING in this! Brilliant vocalist.
Honestly, what amazes me the most, is Tori's talent.
With every song I hear, I think "hum, this song is great. How will she preform it live?". Then, when I hear the live version, I love it even more.
Her voice, the arangements, the meeting between the both of them, the fact that she is dynamic when she preforms... Everything is perfectly placed and seems effortless, although it has nothing but hard work and dedication.
And, even though it seems impossible, she keeps getting better and better, somehow.
I just... I can't even... Ok, bye. XD
Wow you summed it up perfectly!
i really thought she wouldnt perform this song live, oh how i doubted her
***** I'm sorry, you're right. I don't deserve to be on this earth no more. corrected. x)
She has the hair, the voice, the smile, the dimples and the legs. Like dayum.
She deserve every Grammy that has got to do with music. She like a one girl revolution.
SIMPLY PERFECT!!!! Best live singer everrrrrrr!
***** Are you from Philly? If so, you must know the PVP - BFvsGF. Oh how I love them! Best youtube couple for me!!
Tori Kelly is the definition of perfection :)
HeyitsPatricia trueee
the joy in her face when she performs means the world to me
How does she sing better than the recording!?!?
She's the Daenerys of the music scene. No one's truly acknowledged her power but you know the chick got dragons to wipe you all out in seconds.
Tori slays
Such a rare and beautiful creature that is Tori Kelly. I imagine what an angel would sound like, and i think of her.
Something about her really makes me feel like i am in love again 😍 😍 and i dont think i am the only one..
KingOfAwesomeness41 don't worry .. you are not alone!
Hey. I am. In love. With . Her. Why am I typing weird. Oh... Love
Facts!
3:53 "PERFECTION IS FOREVER" Tori is perfection.
*Mood whenever I hear Tori sing*: Lights in the background @2:31.
At 2:32 the bar's light sign across from her lights up and says 'simply perfect' and I smile and agree every time I see it!!!
HOW DOES THIS SOUND BETTER THAN THE RECORDING!? Tori is a queen
A couple months ago I won a contest to meet Tori but due to some personal events I was unfortunately not able to see her. 💔 It was a once in a lifetime opportunity and sadly I missed it.

Praying for this girl to go big 🙏 I admire her for not being ashamed of the word and glorifying his name. 👏 God bless you Tori!
I love how the "simply perfect" sign just turns on right when she finishes that line but for real though PERFECTION 2:30
i didn't like this song right away. it had to grow on me, but now I'm OBSESSED with it 😍
I thought the same thing!
SAME
MarQueisa James Whaaaaat?! lol. Its one of my favourites off the album. Soon as I heard it, I loved it :)
MarQueisa James same!

Her voice is higher than my grades
Love this comment! A+ on this.
A+++++++++++++ on this.
THIS is better than the album version, literally i'm almost in tears this is so beautiful
Everytime I go on the comments for every Tori's videos there's never critics. EVERYONE loves her and her wonderful voice. Crazy huh ? I love her too
First of all WHO THE FRICK DISLIKED THIS?!! Second of all...can I get an unplugged album though? Cuz this was just DIVINE.
Haters are everywhere 😂 why there are people who keep dislike on everything they see???...😂
Because they liked it so much the other button says dis i like
Because they liked it so much the other button says dis i like
Because they liked it so much the other button says dis i like

Is it just me or this is better than the album version?!
Tori is always so amazing live... I can't get enough. ♥
can't wait for the day Tori gets a Grammy👑
Tori is like the only artist that sings exactly like the studio version of her song,
that sign is TALKing about tori at 2:31
Haha she's "Simply Perfect" indeed Waldo glad you FOUND that.
Waldo haha lol... bet it was planned... camera angle is abit suspicious
I saw that lol. I was gonna take a screen shot but decided not too..oh well. :)
Waldo totally xD
Yes!
I like how it seems in the video, the world has stood still to focus on Tori Kelly, her message and emotion.
A singer who has truth in her songs... Its tough to find singers like this in these days
"Perfection is Forever?"
"Simply Perfect?"
I think that sign's been watching Tori lol
breathtaking
The riff at 3:31...superb.
I know it's been 2 yrs but damn I cant stop listening to this! People calling almost every celebrity "queen" but the only Queen is right here.
this is my absolute favorite thing of life. like you let those people talk and you sing them impossible falsetto notes and DO YOU TORI. NEVER STOP.
her legs are godly wtf
right? they look so smooth 😩 like I wanna just touch them 😂
+Bria Carter that's really creepy
Megan Mendoza and her hands look so soft
+Bria Carter same
because of this comment i went back and watched the video again
One of those kind of songs that grow on you the more you listen to it.
KEEP SLAYIN TORI
Okay but like, the confirmation that she can actually sing this song live is EVERYTHING. Most people would assume it's auto-tuned because of how difficult it seems like it would be to sing, but she just SLAYED MY LIFE with this. Howwww can anyone be this talented???? Flawless.
I AM DEAD! But your songs and voice gave me life once again! NO WORDS! 👌 U DESERVE A GRAMMY, alot of them!!!Just.... 👏👏👏
I'm so thankful for your talent and grace. This makes me so very happy.
If I had a voice like hers I wouldn't even talk, I would sing everything!
I know most people aren't sold on this song, but personally it's my favourite on the album! I can just imagine sitting on a train, looking out the window, musing on life... it feels so nostalgic. Love it
I wanna cry...still proud af that things are finally falling into place for her now💜
Why are her live performances better than studio versions? Lol
She slays though 👌🏽💜 Amazing role model and singer!
No. Words. Tori... WOW! 😍😍😍
I swear she could be the only voice I listen to for the rest of my life and would still fall in love with it every time
The sign in the background: simply perfect🙌🏻🙌🏻 yup
I've listened to this song about a billion times and all of her other songs as well and I think I'm addicted to her voice... 😙😙😙😘
God blessed this wonderful woman with a hell of a gift.
Please release a new album full of bops like this. Your voice is so magical...
Love this! So happy you're finally starting to get the recognition you deserve! You're so amazing Tori! Super talented and always so sweet! Can't wait for the next time we meet. Always supporting you!
I love how you can hear and see her love for music every time she sings. She's amazing.
this totally has a john mayer "i don't trust myself (with loving you)" and "vultures" vibe and I am 100% here for it!!!
3:18-3:22.....ugh, I love her slow riffs too, makes it easier to learn hahaha. Even though her fast riffs are more impressive to the ear, the slow ones are very sweet and smooth. Oh, I love being a musician, and a Toraay haha :D
+Kelli Smith YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! I had to learn that one right away! LOL
+Riyad Mohammed did you ever get it or do you need help?
I got it! hahaha but thanks for the offer :')
It seems like she can control her voice easily.
She can sing whatever she wants. Maybe she can seem to master the art of letting her voice out any-anyway.
SO I OWN THE ALBUM AND I PLAYED THE ALBUM AND THIS AT THE SAME TIME AND EVERYTHING MATCHES UP PERFECTLY LIKE ALL THE VOCALS AND NOTES AND EVERYTHING ITS JUST SO PERFECT!!!!😍😍😍💕💕💕

"Fame is Fleeting"
"Perfection is Forever"
"Simply Perfect"
When I listen to her live performances, takes me back to the Stacie Orrico days.
Amazing how I love this live version better than the studio version. I don't even understand how this can sound better than the recorded sound. Forever love Tori one of the most pure and REAL talented artists ever.

Best fucking female artist of the year 😭❤️ She writes her own songs, she plays her guitar like a pro while singing, can hit those nice high notes with a sweet vibration and strong vocals not just soft💕 I'm in love...m
