Lyrics :
So I want to kill this waitress
She's worked here a year longer than 1
If I did it fast you know that's an act of kindness
But I believe in peace
I believe in peace Bitch
I believe in peace
I believe in peace
But I believe in peace
I believe in peace Bitch
I believe in peace
I want to kill this waitress
I cna't believe this violence in mind
And is her power all in her club sandwich
But I believe in peace
I believe in peace Bitch
I believe in peace
I believe in peace
But I believe in peace
I believe in peace Bitch
I believe in peace
I want to kill this killing wish
They're too many stars and not enough sky
Boys all think she's living kindness
Ask a fellow waitress
Ask a fellow waitress

Tori Amos is my drug of choice
Every time
The drummer's performance is so good!
That’s “the creature who hits things” - Matt Chamberlain ! 🥰
I don’t think many three pieces could mess with the drummer, the bass player, and Miss Amos.
The way she amped this song up during this era is by far the best that she ever did with this song.
Sean Curran I would go as far as to say it's one of the best live renditions she has ever graced us with. (Not just this performance but this particular tour year) I will admit I have a soft spot for the waitress from Portland September 12th. I was only a few weeks old but I know I would have been there cheering her on
i still prefer recorded version
100% !!! This wasn't even a favorite of mine, until I saw this performance!
And there's also the performance she did at Madison square for r.a.i.n. of this song.

I yearn for the days of this Tori. She was legendary. I would give anything to rewind time and see her live again in the 90's.
Literally
yeah,
what became of her;
Artists evolve (that's their purpose, basically) -FORTUNATELY!
If she stayed in the 90's we'd never had Scarlet's, Doll Posse, Geraldines...
July 23rd just got my tix!❤
It's Interesting how the background musicians had to not only know the song, but know how to ADD to the song, AND know how to improvise alongside Tori comfortably enough to perform live where she changes songs on the fly.
Every single one of them are at the peak of musical genius, or at least at the peak of my understanding of musical genius.
They aren't background musicians, they're soundscape painters 🥰
Her soundwriting was always immaculate, but the Choirgirl Hotel-era band sound added something extra, unique, on top.
Best rendition of this song I've ever seen.
"They're too many stars and not enough sky" - genius
I can't listen to any other version of this song anymore...Sorry Tori, but this is absolutely wonderful...
You know your Tori.
I totally agree. This is the best live version of this song I’ve ever heard/seen.
Same here... fucking rocks.
Same Here!! I Love Tori She Blew This Version Off The Fucking Charts! That's My Girl!❤💯❤
I completely agree!
I Believe in Peace-BITCH. Great Performace by all. Tori- vocals, piano, movements. Drummer unbelievable. Lead and Bass had classic moments
Couldn't have put it better myself. This is the ultimate version of The Waitress!
That’s exactly what Pepper said to RiderWar in ⚔️GoodOmens⚔️.
Tori Amos is friends with Neil Gaiman.
Underrated piano player.
She is so beautiful, so talented, so deep. I thank God she decided to make beautiful music for the world, for her, for me and for you. Thank you Tori
I like her uniqe behaviors as she plays, even though some people don't like them.
It's real, and you can tell she feels the music, that's what i like. *edit* besides what other pianist/vocalist do we have to compare her to in this genre? She is her very own.
Who doesn’t like them???
She’s a performer a artist, whom expresses deep deep emotional driven passion from life’s experiences
She's a goddess.... she's in to her music.... ppl that don't like it aren't true fans And don't understand.... no one compares ♡
One of the most memorable and powerful performances I have ever seen. Left a deep impression on me as a teen and so glad to revisit it here as an adult.
This helps my soul, when I just want to scream at all the ‘waitresses’ in my life
That. Is. Stunning. Just when you think they can't possibly go on any longer....I could go back and watch and listen to this over and over again and keep finding deeper levels, new things to pay attention to. This particular time.....? That bass player. Mercy. How has Tori Amos been able to put that kind of energy into her work for decades and still be at it? Just amazing.
LOVE Tori, but
Matt Chamberlain's drumming just blew me away!!
rfmitchell7 Matty hits things
rfmitchell7 She STILL is!!!!!
Matt is phenomenal, and Tori is divine!
I hate to say it, and I'm very happy for her on a personal level. But, back when she was clearly unhappy, the music was fucking tremendous.
That seems to be the truth. She seemed (back then) bitter and angry and it flowed through her music in a powerful way. The energy in the performance is incredible
good lord
this version, her musicians, HER, all magnificent.
This version...I guess from venus n back 'still orbiting'..perfect.....in every aspect heaven sent ...TORI AMOS
Caton’s guitar adds so much atmosphere, really brings all the pieces together
My piano goddess ❤😊😘
It's a rare stroke of genius how they refined and extended the album version and made a whole new, deep, orgiastic goodbye-dear-world song of it. The only comparables which come to mind are Sugar (is there an album version at all?) and Bells for Her, which comparably became a much better song in the stage variant. Wish I'd been around in the US in the late nineties and could have witnessed her take off like that.
Plugged Tour was my first show... what I wouldn't give to go back to 1998 and see Tori live again in this way.
The most powerful performance of Tori I have seen on youtube so far. Amazing.
I watch this video A LOT. There is a live outdoor concert from the late 90s that is pretty close to this level of incredible for about 45 minutes.
Tori is a legend, leastways amongst music officionados. I personally speak of her in the same breath as Kate Bush, Sandy Denny, and yes - Eva Cassidy. Voices must never be rated against each other as they stand alone, unique and proud and each worthy via the scores of elements which in unison comprise a 'voice.' Tori particularly impresses me with her possessed passion. She and her song becomes one. It no longer lies on the page as a song, but both metamorphise into something at times purely magical, even holy. Tori inspires up and coming artists such as German performer Carla Fuchs. Listening / watching Carla perform Tori's 'Winter' warms me insofar as great music is shared, interpreted, and re-interpreted with a good heart between fellow artists completely free of selfishness or jealousy, everyone learning and being inspired by each other. Music is a gift from God and the artists merely deliver, adding their own kiss.
She is calling upon the Gods for strength. This is an incredibly demanding song or "girl" as Tori might say imo.
what a masterpiece and what a performance from the whole band...and Tori absolute goddess
I saw her perform Waitress live in 1998 in Concord CA. One of the best experiences of my life.
I was there, too! Exceptional.
This makes me breathless ❤️
Michaela Antonsson me 2
Tori is stunning 🕊☘️🍀❤️
Love her voice and videos 😂😍💕
It's funny, my wife and daughter don't like her or her music. She doesn't really fit in my wheelhouse of musical tastes but I absolutely LOVE her music. She is stunning, passionate and has excellent composition skills.
Tori is such a genius…I don’t believe there will ever be another like her during this lifetime.❤️👌
This performance is spotless👌
I come back to this one often.It's incredible.
Always amazes me even I already watched thousand times
Always so touched by this version. Happy to see so many fans here, I love your taste of music!
The first time I saw/heard this version, i was floored. Soooo awesome. Tori went to town and the bass and drums and guitar were crazy on point. Love it.
Great performance! A waitress must have really been horrible; thank you sincerely horrible waitress. Great song.
PLEASE GIVE IT EVERYTHING YOU HAVE GOT TORY.
I was not a fan of the song recorded version, but this live version is INCREDIBLE.
Like the version on her 5th album. Both are incredible.
This lady ages like fine wine....best live show ever 2022
Truly the height of her powers. I got to see her do this twice, and meet her. She gives the best hugs!
holy shit, that was good!!
I felt the same way! Every element just pops, and her delivery toward the end is so forceful it's truly sublime.
Those drums and guitar tone sound perfect to these ears.
WHY AM I JUST discovering this talent. ❤️❤️❤️Good lawdy!!!
Start with the ’92 album and work your way forward :) I heard Caught A Lite Sneeze in 96, ordered all 3 albums and that was it. Seen her live at least 7 times and she’s still my go to. Her first 7 albums are timeless....
better late than never ;-)
youth !
and that's the right age to it
she is a godess, luv her so much
Here for Matt Chamberlain and Jon Evans.
drumtravelfun OMG incredible ensemble! That’s music!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
amazing song. amazing performer. amazing live version.
The tea at the beginning 👹
One of my favorite live performances of any song
She's a freakin Goddess
This is impossible yet there it is. Scary and fascinating. She is thrilling.
Tori's music is monumental.
A performance so outstanding - shows all of Tori‘s talents and her „fire“ ... love 💕 it!
Listening to this today is therapy!
I spent so much of my life listening to this song...and no knowing what she said...>_> I just learned it's "hang-ah-ten-ah"...
I wondered if she was in the zone and just started "speaking in tongues". ;)
i don’t remember EXACTLY what it means, but I remember that one of the chants she does in this meant like calling for “source” or an entity that is representative of source, to like “come back” and set things straight?? >_< kind of deal, lol
This is a brilliant performance of this song, I listen to it almost daily
Excellent, Deployed Worldwide Through My Deep Learning AI Research Library… Thank you.
That was the year I saw her life. Great song. Great performance!
Timeless materpiece
No female artist will ever be as hot as Tori was on this night, in this performance. BABE
the fact that I wasn't even alive at this time makes me wanna die, she is just wonderful, flung out of space
God this is everything. What kind of genius miracle is this. Every single thing.
That breathing at the end with the mic drop ♡ love you so much tori♡♡♡♡
Amazing rendition, so much raw emotion poured into it!! And the band is fantastic🌟
Holy fucking shit. That was an incredible performance 👏 🙌
So happy to have seen her live a couple times, one of them at a small cafe in Utrecht, Netherlands.
Best Mic drop ever!!!
I believe in peace bitch ! :)
This is a awesome performance !
Perfect Tori! You really let the music go through your soul! Thank you for sharing with us such magic!
90's pure energy pre-depressive mesmerizing performance - wow!!! but as always, times change, keep on please! cheers from germany
Brilliant. Have always the live version of this song.

Cela fait 10 fois que j'écoute le concert C'est beau à en pleurer
Love this!!!!! So powerful
Wonderful performance! 💖
My God she is an amazing Artist!
omg absolutely electrifying. Chills. EVERY. time!!!!
She also uses the Cherokee motions which call upon, "The Great Spirit" or "Great Apportioner", pronounced, " oo - nee -quah. "
"Jesus ten fingers were hung" in Golgatha... near Europe. Hang Ten. Dead bodies stink if left along for too long.
Jurisdiction and Penal Codes dividing my Homeland. Let her get that out of the way, then we can talk about life, and the thereafter.
it's like the 290th time i watch/listen to this and i still want to scream and dance like i hear it for the 1st time!!!
This song is incredible...

Fabuleuse! absolument fabuleuse cette Tori Amos :)

Nah, she is no longer this good, and has not been this good for a long time. Let's be real.
Noromongrel she was
@@julesgleeson1237 I personally love Tori no matter the era and that's the same for lots of people. Can't tell someone their opinion is wrong.
