I am so moved, I have tears welling. You make me want to say 'You are the true voice of the next generation." Declare you The Bard of our times, the New Shakespeare or Homer. None of that does you justice, because you are so bright and new... a falling star, a hopeful glimpse of awakening humanity, the possibility. Human, being. Thank you more then you can ever know, you have awoken something like the quiet memory of fierce lightning in me and now I can only hear your tones and think in poetry... and Hold my Own.
what a nonce
start to watch this at about 3:13 and put the instrumental from "one day" (vandaag) behind it in another tab. It fits perfectly.
you are so right i cried sm, so emotional
Stop capping lil bro
Left speechless and without words to express the untouched, hidden and well protected depths within me this poetry has touched and opened. I am only half way through listening.
More than awesome, better than best. What a start to my day.
I thank Kae Tempest for all that she gives to my heart and soul and to humanity.

off the top of the d o m e. i don't remember many of my birthdays but i won't forget this one, the hour i spent in the 3rd row watching kate tempest recite an entire book of her poetry from memory to an audience so captivated it didn't want to blink or even draw breath, but just stare back at her entranced.
I can't think of a comment to write after watching you, I feel that I will not be able to put the words together to express how brilliant you are.
Thank you Kate for everything. :)

Late Night Live brought me here. Wow. I just stare, entranced, open mouthed, at Kate's performances.
what an amazing performance. I have never seen anything like you. Totally entranced the whole time
started watching, glued to my screen for an hour
Dr egg man
This is one of the very few moments I watch a play or a performance and sit still, unable to move. All the tension released at the end. It happens only with Kae Tempest, Nick Cave and in theatre.
There is nobody I can think of that would attract a seeker more. Thank you.
I am glad that I am thick and talentless! I would never be able to compete with someone like this!
I heard your poetry in a gathering of opera singers, sharing their favorite poetry. Now I want one of our American composers to set your texts. They are simply amazing.
wow i'm speachless... ill hold my own. thanks kate
i cried a few mins into this , thinking of my mother , wow , @Kate Tempest
Every time I hold a high expectation based on how good you are, you absolutely SMASH it! Completely completely in awe of this set, so beautiful! I want to say I'm speechless but that seems unfair given the amazing show of what language can do that you have just provided. Just utterly incredible that you a voice alone could hold my attention for a solid hour and inspire at the same time.
Thank you so much for your talent. I am moved.
Memorable, touching, motivating, inspiring ❤️
SLoDG young woman! You are feckin' deadly! Such energy and passion. Love you x
Amazing Kate
Just about to click out but She just drew me into this performance. incredible!
Stunning work!!!!!
Brilliant!
Kate Tempest is a loving, talented and growing voice that brings life together.
you certainly do Hold your Own... brilliant words, molded into pictures for the mind.
F***ing brilliant
Just bought the book Hold Your Own. I'm sat in a cafe reading Tiresias, absorbing feels and images. Chapeau K.T.

thank you old soul....my kinfolk
Genius.
Your words/character are so beautiful. I was never really one to idolize, but damn, this is good reason to.
I can't believe that she ( Kate ) knows all this from memory! I don't understand it but I am sure that it is brilliant! Very Urbane!
That's because she is suffering and has suffered, you don't need written words, when its entrenched on your brain so deep even the blackest of dark holes couldn't suck it from you.
Wow. Nice. Heard you on NPR a few months ago on the way to work and just saw the note again tonight that I had scribbled to look the name up.
Wonderful show :) .

"Gripping his cane, so he's able." Wow...just...fucking wow.

Why does she talk with this accent?
+Adam Height To annoy.
+Adam Height She's from Brockley.
+Adam Height because she has an accent. Twit
Zaph - It's a fake accent. It's exagerrated to give her working class credibility points even though, like most of the current Left Wing, she is middle class.
+Iain Robb Oh, maybe, I don't know her background. I do know when I first tried reading poetry, prose etc... out loud to audiences I took on the stagey voice i thought I should have, with all the inflections I'd picked up from famous poets/actors. Also I once worked in close quarteres with 3 Scoucers and was talking 'scouse' with false accent involunterily.
So I don't know if you're right, probably are. But still then she's 'getting in character', it's a performance, and it's mostly stunning content, don't you think?
