Tori is almost 60. I think she deserves respect instead of being torn down by everyone. You can't stay 22 forever & we all change vastly as we age. You'll see. I'm just glad she's alive & well & performing still. What she looks like... who cares. Her music got me through my youth, I am thankful & respectful. The past is over, luckily we have recordings if we want that experience. I personally enjoy this♡♡♡♡
I am respectful of her, but I also notice that no one is forcing her to perform and make sub-standard records. If she can't sing or play or write as she used to, she can just explore other ventures: she could write more books, even fiction books, she could produce other artists or theater shows... That would be her only way not to destroy her immense legacy. The public has the right to criticize an artist who has become disappointing!
@@vins1979 wow, well lucky for us all we have free speech & free will. You get to have your opinion & Tori gets to keep performing for those who still enjoy her. I won't engage in how I feel about your comment because, to each his own. I simply don't agree for a myriad of reasons, and that's ok too.
@@slowdived1000 what a silly comment. I am a HUGE fan of Tori and of course I keep checking her new material, HOPING she will return to be the great artist she used to be.
I absolutely adore you Tori Amos. You are a flickering light in my life for so long now. You blaze bright. Possibly the finest pianist that there ever was. Just an absolute massive fan forever ❤️
As to any complaints of her voice, GO SEE HER LIVE! I saw her in Glasgow, and this recording does it NO justice. She is as magical and beautiful and ethereal as she ever was. Come on people.
This is completely absurd today we have the best recording devices and her voice sounds much better with any crappy device from the 90s. It's just painful to listen to her sing.
If you could only listen to music by one artist (what a horrible thought) Tori Amos would overwhelmingly be my choice. The sheer volume of work, variation, & potential for even more is all present.
Anyone worried about her voice: please watch any US show she has done so far. Much improved. Seems like she was still finding her range in these early shows!
Even with her voice “not sounding as good as it used to”, there’s something magical and powerful about these new performances (so far, at least). The instruments sound amazing and the playing is spot on. I feel like she’s rocking but bringing me calm at the same time. It’s like she’s taking me across the oceans away from the horror and violence on the lands.
Agreed. I am obsessively watching all the videos from the London shows and the new arrangements have floored me. For lack of a better word - is it vocal restraint? Its allowing other elements of the songs to step forward and I am mesmerized. Her use of keyboards and synths and effects - just beautiful. I so appreciate everything she has shared with us over the years. She will always tell us the truth. I have read so many comments on many videos and people are heartbroken about these changes and I am over here freaking out like - "she just changed up this entire song's arrangement and its better?!! How am I so effing lucky to walk this planet with her and witness this artist? Holy kcuf I cannot wait until she is in NYC in May." And on and on. 💖 Change is inevitable. Time carries on. If we are lucky, we age and pur bodies change. I am not the same 15 yr old I was when I first discovered her some 26 years ago.
@@jeanshurman Yeah, “restraint” is a good word. It seems like it’s purposeful to me. She hit the high notes during the chorus of Give and the low ones during the chorus of Liquid Diamonds, so I think she still can when she chooses to.
There are people complaining? It's a more nuanced performance... class is permanent. She's expressing herself as she sees fit on that day. Be grateful for any magic that's still around ✨
Listen back to the Glastonbury version and I have heard this live. She always rearranges her songs to keep the songs interesting. Look at the live version of Sugar from To Venus and Back. I have very much enjoyed this arrangement. She gives the piano a chance to play her part in the song. She is singing this with her usual conviction. Yes I know we all love when she used to sing the higher notes to this song especially. She has to choose when touring how much she excepts her voice, she has many shows booked. She is just reconnecting and I'd professional as ever
Although her talent is still immense and I respect her a great deal, Tori has become a little too adult contemporary for me. There was a danger, a bite to her 90’s work that she just doesn’t seem interested in exploring anymore. Even in her modern interpretations of her old songs, there’s just this disconnect for me now that I don’t know how to articulate other than to say it all seems muted, like she’s holding the fire back to make things sound as technically lovely and pleasant as possible, when the rawness was what I identified with. It’s really been that way since the early 2000’s, save a couple songs here and there. I miss her; I miss being a member of the cult of Tori like I was as a teenager, but I just can’t reconnect, try as I might, and it makes me sad.
Felt the exact same way watching this. Tori has and always will be one of my favourite artists, but as you said the bite has deffintely muted as she's aged. The good news is that I think it happened as she became happier in life (and now likely no longer has that angst in her anymore). I'm happy for her if she no longer connects with that angst but it's sad for the rest of us as that was a gift musically.
That’s is called growing as a person. Who wants to mentally stay at their 20s ??? Happy for her being softer less anger less misery. And I wish that to any human being.
One could argue that, even with the beauties of mellowing with age, a performer could still use memories and imagination to access and bring the audience rawness and fire - as well as simply perform those qualities as a performer does. I have no doubt she’s capable of all that.
@@FCignelli She did some performances before this show and had a lot of time to practice. I love her last album and going to see her live anyway. In 2017 I noticed for the first time that something was going on with her voice, I don’t know if it has to do with aging, or some damage, it’s different and she’s adapting to the voice that she has now.
@@michaelfloss845 Well that happens with age. However, performing in front of thousands is often different than perfrorming in your studio. Regardless she sounded lovely.

你说的很好，但是我还是忍不住看着这个视频流泪了，感叹时间流逝的如此之快，1998-2022，25年Tori的变化，我永远的女神

I was there and can confirm that she sounded amazing live! Nothing beats live vocals

This comment made me happy:) Tori is one of my all time favourite artists
@@meeppeep4113 It makes me happy you're happy! Me too. She's my fucking idol.
Thank you. You are correct. Her Cleveland show this tour was incredible!!!!
@@davidmenke7552 Thank you! Absolutely. I'm jealous you got to see her, I'd see her again a hundred times and never get bored.
This is completely absurd today we have the best recording devices and her voice sounds much better with any crappy device from the 90s. It's just painful to listen to her sing.
Saw her last year! She's superb! I love you~ and had your poster framed!!!!
You're my Goddess!
Absolutely genius artist. Always.

She didnt performed Long time also her hormons are changing wich effects her voice .but she is still great
Lost count at how many shows I went to. Unfortunately I'm not going to this one. You still rock like no other......love you Tori ❤️
I think she sounds beautiful. Love me some Tori 💕

@@krd2331 Indeed. Definitely intentional.
It's a long tour. If she blew her voice out in the first week there would be no more shows. She's wise to sing in this way live.
she plays in a lower key. this song is originally C minor, but now she sings in A minor if I am correct

Thank you so much for sharing these!!! I think I am going to see her in Madison Wisconsin in May! xxoo
Hermoso 🥰
One of my fave’s 💕
Divine.
The Rick Beato interview was amazing….
This version is more sultry and sensual. I love it!

Also listen to the live version of black dove from this tour and well all those high notes are there in perfect pitch 🤩
Anybody remember this song debuting on Saturday Night Live? I am old.
Oh, yeah. She is incredibly gifted as a singer and way under appreciated as a composer and songwriter.
@@kenraty76 Been a fan for many many years.

Dzięki!
wow!! thank you
❤😊
Saw her last week in Seattle. She’s def lower energy but still amazing! But nothing like 2007-2012 Tori
She’s just older now.
Although her talent is still immense and I respect her a great deal, Tori has become a little too adult contemporary for me. There was a danger, a bite to her 90’s work that she just doesn’t seem interested in exploring anymore.

I agree absolutely. I miss her strong attention getting voice range and wild hair flying
That’s is called growing as a person. Who wants to mentally stay at their 20s ??? Happy for her being softer less anger less misery. And I wish that to any human being.

@@rudypalma4444 absolutely 100%!
Today is Tori's friend Trent Reznor's 57th birthday. 'Made my own PRETTY HATE MACHINE' indeed...
Thank you. I was there in Glasgow up the back xx
😘
Her voice sounds fine to me. The microphone doesn't sound like it's turned up loud enough.
Toriholic david Sydney attwell song 🎵 😮😢😢😢😢😊😊😊
Today's date is 04/29/22 how is this show in the future?
In Europe it goes day/month/year so this was march 2022
@@tippyleno Figured it out after I posted it.
I love her silky dark smoky voice
Am I the only one that caught hearing a woman say "what an ugly costume..." in the fron row? I mean, wow... Who does that?
Someone who feels inadequate in front of a talented woman 🤷
No, no!!! It was me and my friend speaking in Polish, definitely didn’t say that her costume was ugly - loved her outfits on this tour 😍
What’s going on with the vocals
I wonder if and I’m afraid that that incredible voice isn’t going to come back. She can’t rely on it it seems so it’s like she’s holding back.
It’s the 1st live show in 5 years. Give her time.
@@FCignelli She did some performances before this show and had a lot of time to practice. I love her last album and going to see her live anyway.

@@FCignelli AAK has just been going around pretty much every upload asking the same question.
She obviously lowered the keys on purpose bite me!!!!!!
Oil spill
Oh hell no! I would have been pissed to pay for a ticket and she chops up all the songs like this. 🙃
I don’t like it at all either.
Seems like you need to find a time machine and go back to 1999
Not the Tori i remember. Like watching a librarian
Her voice has much more range in all the US shows she has done so far!
It’s a no for me. Will always love her though.
