“What would an angel say? The devil wants to know.” Is a brilliant lyric!
I was going to write that that's my favorite line!
The devil was an angel but not the kind wed want to run into.
That reminds me of “All the Good Girls Go to Hell” by Billie Eilish.
A lot of people called her troubled. I say she was wide awake. Thats a scary place.
I agree. She’s an awesome human, and is very big on animal rights and human rights. She chooses to live a quiet life because of her anxiety (I think).
She was very much aware and I love that about her.
Wide awake is a scary place. Funny, the new word that some people use for name-calling on a group by another group as if it is to be an insult… “‘woke democrats”. The people who say it don’t even realize that it means ‘awakened’, ‘acutely and newly aware’. ‘crystal clear’.
Wake up (if you can withstand it). If I had to choose from one type of “disturbed” over another, I’d choose to go down twitching because the stark truth is too heavy, as opposed to being “disturbed” as in smiling and chanting cluelessly thinking it’s a fun and right thing to do marching with a parade of ‘friends’ carrying machine guns, noises, and baseball bats to break in to the nations capital to murder congress and end democracy. THAT is supposedly much healthier than “woke”.
I’d rather be insane because I know the difference between right and wrong and traumatized by what is truly happening then an insane person that can’t exist without following a cult leader.
Doesn’t anybody remember the term “Drinking the koolaid” because some guy somehow managed to convince like hundreds of people who used to be normal people that it was a good idea to all commit suicide at the same time including killing their children in California back in the ‘70s???
WTF happened?? HUNDREDS of dead bodies were found on a property. They all drink koolaid laced with some lethal chemical at the same time and it was a unanimous plan.
THAT IS WHERE WE ARE.
If they say Fiona apple was disturbed, so am I.
And don't for, she was only eighteen years old when she wrote that. Think about, 18!
Fiona Apple is one of the most prolific poets of our generation.
As a professional musician, I don’t say that lightly.
Her pen game is next level.
She was only 17 when she recorded this song.
She came out of the gate a prodigy.
Soooo true. One of my favorite lyricists.
She releases albums in 8 years that's not prolific
Shadow Boxer, Sleep To Dream, Extraordinary Machince, and Not About Love are all great songs worth a listen.
Good list! But what of hers isn't. Fantastic talent
@@bscott5965 yeah tidal and when the pawn... are albums you have to listen to front to back
Across the Universe, Dull Tool, Never is a Promise, Red, Red, Red, Fast As You Can
Add “Fast As You Can” to that short list of her brilliant songs.
Thanks for doing this, guys! I can tell Asia didn’t know what to make of it! She wrote the song in 45 minutes when she was still a teenager. I met her when I was a radio announcer in SC. She is super sweet and very talented. She regrets the video because she thinks too much attention was paid to it and not the song itself. She was very young at the time, and now she’s in her mid 40’s. ❤
Yes! Thank you for requesting Fiona. She's been in some polls but always runner up. Her music is amazing and she was definitely a prodigy. Everyone was so focused on her eating habits, physical and sexual health because of the video and her age... they completely missed the mark of her talent and were so quick to judge all the "social red flags". She rose to fame extremely quickly at a young age and got eaten alive by the judging public that it caused her to be somewhat of a recluse.
@@scapito Ikr? Everyone who is familiar with and likes Fiona is always rooting for her and wanting her to be happy. If she doesn’t have someone post something from her on social media within a certain amount of time people get worried. Protect Fiona at all costs! She’s a genuinely good human being. 🩷
There is a very fine line between brilliance and insanity.
This is why people worry about her.
@@adnap how sheltered do you have to be to think that fiona is insane?
I love her song SLEEP TO DREAM.
We took this stuff for granted… a songwriter, lyricist, live musicians in the room, all making it happen.
We did. The 90s were extremely special.. we had no clue
One of the most well written, well produced albums of the 90's
Dude... This song is one of my favorites of all time. I was obsessed with this when it came out.
It’s hard to believe this album came out in 1996. It almost doesn’t seem possible. It’s been that long.
She did "Criminal" when she was 18. You should check out where she is now. Her song "Shameika" won a 2021 Grammy award from her amazing "Fetch The Bolt Cutters" album. But I'm biased. I like everything she has ever done.
Asia & BJ, you'd like her "Shadowboxer"! "Shadowboxer" and a couple of other songs made the Alternative music charts top 40.
She is so incredibly talented! And, just a little tidbit -- she had a tour scheduled and her dog was very sick/dying so she cancelled the tour to be with her dog for the final days. 💖
Her first two albums are incredible. Her lyricism is top notch 👍🏼
All her albums are incredible. Especially Fetch the Bolt Cutters
Fiona Apple has a great voice! Her debut album is 🔥 You should really check out her song - Shadowboxer
Oh SHIT!!! Fiona Apple is the real deal. Voice, Lyrics, Music. You found gold now.
In a perfect world Fiona Apple would be at the top of the charts rather than what passes for top 40 music today. Multi-talented woman.
Yay!!! I can't believe you guys did this song!!! It's one of my very favorite songs, and not many people react to it. 😊😊❤❤ Straight up ear candy 🍬 😋 😍
Lol. Love how BJ is jamming and Asia is sitting back judging.
I truly love her.!! Saw in concert! So beautiful she is......thanks for playing it...great song & video
“I’ve got a lot to lose, an I’m bettin high so I’m beggin you, before it ends, just tell me where to begin.”
This is “Oops I Did It Again” big sister! This song is a total vibe, but doesn’t even come close to showcase her voice. She’s an amazing vocalist, composer and lyricist. They don’t make ‘em like her much anymore! She knew she was damn dirty and was owning that shit! ❤
There's huge devotion for Fiona Apple's debut album Tidal, this and Shadowboxer were the loved singles, but I think her SECOND album When the Pawn, is worlds better. She writes everything, plays that incredible piano, and you see the power of her voice! Real Ella Fitzgerald/Billie Holiday/Amy Winehouse amazing voice and genius pianist.
"I Don't Sleep To Dream"
Genius song writer and a true artist.
Fiona has no bad songs. Literally.
Thanks!
No problem! Thank you!
I miss the 90s.
Fast As You Can' is another good one. Also one she did for the Pleasantville movie soundtrack called Across The Universe. Its a Beatles cover. But make sure to check out the video. Its awesome. Perfect imo. Seems to fit me and my life. For a long time.
Sleep to Dream is a really great one!!
Fiona is one of the 90s bad girls. Next bad girl should be Courtney Love singing "Violet". Great punk video. Even more fun with a punk vibe is Sonic Youth's "Bull In The Heather" video.
Baby Fiona ❤
This video stirred up alot of CONTROVERSY
She was a troubled gal when she did this great stuff and had a long road. She did a great cover of "Why try to change me now" that is surely worth reacting to
I've been waiting patiently for Fiona to make an appearance on the channel. Her first couple of albums were start to finish A grade songs... and although her popularity has waned since, she's still putting out solid and evolved music. The only other person I've seen live be as vicious on the piano as Fiona Apple is Paula Cole. 😊 🤔 Paula Cole request in the near future?
Ever seen Tori Amos live? Mind blowing piano. 😊❤️✌️
"Sleep to dream' is another good one
I Love Fiona Apple ... 🖤🖤
Fiona has a great voice🤘❤️
"Criminal" is the third single from Fiona's debut album, Tidal (1996); to date, it's her highest-charting song, peaking at #21 on the Hot 100 and #4 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. She has other great songs off that album though: Shadowboxer, Slow Like Honey, Sleep to Dream, Sullen Girl, etc etc. Love her a lot.
First couple of albums were amazing!
Video directed by Mark Romanek, who also directed Johnny Cash's Hurt among many others.
"Shadow Boxer" was an amazing song and production!
This was always my favorite song of hers, and she does have a great voice. She was the king of singer I'd pop in her album (the Tidal album, which had this song) and just relax and listen to it.
you should react to fiona's song 'hot knife' and 'dull tool'. 2 different songs about different stages in a relationship lol
You guys are my favorites and Fiona is a genuinely unique artists/singer/songwriter/pianist
Fun Fact: Mark Romanek who directed this video also directed Johnny Cash's video 'Hurt'.
This video is so raw. I think I was in that trailer in the 70's on a three day party😂😂😂😂
"Never is a promise" is a nice slow one as well
In the trial Fiona said no prosecutor has to charge me. I will convict and sentence myself. Thank you.
This song drives me crazy, and I love it.
This album, Tidal, raked in various awards and she was around 19-20 when this album came out. Fiona is a gifted pianist, singer, songwriter.
I highly recommend Never Is a Promise, Sleep to Dream, And Shadow Boxer from that album, and she has many other great songs from subsequent albums as well.
"I gotta make a play to make my lover stay" that lyric speaks to me
Great song, great album. And that voice...
Hi from AUSTRALIA, I love your reaction channel ❤❤❤ I love this song.
My favorite Fiona song.
Super. Great voice and lyrics
Amazing song . Wonderful lyrics
Awww Fiona Apple represents my teen years. Alanis Morissette, Mazzy Star & Fiona Apple baddest girl gang of the 90's ❤
You should check out Natalie Cole's cover version of Criminal. She makes it her own and is a great listen.
LOVE this song, was never fond of the video, but love the song.
She has a live concert that is off the hook.
Brilliant
This is my karaoke jam! 🖤
They weren’t ready.
This song is bad ass! I missed the 90s for music
Excellent song and, of course, great channel!
❤❤❤
Used to be one of my favorite karaoke songs. ❤
I love me some Fiona!
Nice background. Dope song. The video was based on how Calvin Klein commercials looked in the early 90's. Definitely a head bobbing song. Similar vibe is "stalker" or "demons" by Macy gray.
She catching a case, huh?
Great song
GAHHHHH! This song was Erything back in the day!
Great reaction! And great request, Julia A!
Thanks, JD!
Flashback!
I’m not getting my notifications for you guys!! It’s making me crazy!!✌️😂💙🧿
Oh no!
Maybe it's just me, but the ending soundscape of this song always gave me Beatle vibes like something from their "Magical Mystery Tour" album. Some other cool female singers you should check out are Devil Doll "Walk With Me", "Why", "Gypsy Bitch", "Sweet Lorraine", and "To All Our Friends". Lavay Smith And Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers "What's The Matter With You"-that's some cool boogie woogie. Amy Lavere "Cupid's Arrow", "Big Sister", and "Take 'em Or Leave 'em". That song is featured in the movie "The Heartbreak Kid" with Ben Stiller and its very funny. Would be a good Reelin' With Asia & Bj" reaction.
Yeah she had some kind of soulful voice on her. I remember liking this song and video when it came out, and that it had a unique vibe and mood to it. But I always wanted the director to give her a damn sandwich! 😎Great reaction, as always. ☮️🎵
Nothing like Fiona Apple. When this video came out, there was a look going around called "heroin chic", where performers and supermodels were first appearing super lean and looking drugged out. I prefer her other overlooked song "Sleep To Dream".
Fiona Apple is an artist and a force. Try "slow like honey" or "not about love" or the live "I know", or like another 40 ones. DO IT KNOW FUCK-DAMMIT!!
Fiona is the best.
Nice pick guys 👍
Please do more Fiona Apple! Shadow boxer or first taste I think you’ll like
She was EIGHTEEN when she wrote that. An Old Soul who lived, loved, and betrayed hard. Actually, she was the one who was betrayed. This was written because she had turned in the entire album that she had made, and the producer said, well, we need something that catchy, more upbeat, so she wrote this during a lunch break, and you can research that, and it's a fact. Listen to her song, "Limp.".If you want to hear her rip down the man who hurt her in the first place. If that man got away with his integrity intact and his identity unknown, I do not know how. But as harsh as she appears to be on herself here, she let it rip on him. And something tells me he deserved it. And every time I listen to this album from nineteen ninety-eight, I keep thinking of eighteen, HOW was she only EIGHTEEN? SHE WON A SLEW OF GRAMMYS AND THEN VANISHED FOR A WHILE, AND NOW SHE SINGS WHEN SHE WANTS TO. AND I SAY GOOD FOR HER.
She was "troubled"!!! She had been sexually assaulted when she was younger and the record label sexualized her video. She had some mental health issues. The whole album is great.
💚
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I don't any man wants to be called delicate!
Heroin shek, period ✌️✌️✌️
If you’re looking for some other great female artists from the 90s I’d suggest 10,000 Maniacs, and the lead singer Natalie Merchant went on to solo success. Also, Tori Amos has been jamming since 91. If you like live videos I’d suggest “Precious Things” from the Sessions performance or “Cornflake girl” from the Oxygen Concert. She can really play piano.
ha I remember this song
Well you’re not Fiona Apple and if you’re not Fiona Apple I don’t give a damn- Officer Barbrady
I know what y'all thinking, Asia..."Somebody throw that girl a cheeseburger!" 😁 That's the "heroin-chic" look from the 90s. Damn girl had some pipes though.
Watching Aja go though this is wild.
I think she was only 19 when this video was made.
I remember this one being overplayed on MTV back in the 90's haha. Classic. I think artists and band should remake this one as a horror video.
Ugggh, on the radio too, which unfortunately dates me. Probably due to the oversaturation, I actually can't listen to Criminal anymore & it's my least favorite Fiona song 😐
Now when I hear this song, I think of JLo in Hustlers.
I'm not mad about it 🤷🏽♀️😂
Split screen aja and Bjs face in this video.
It’s comical.
I don’t mean anything bad just y’all had TOTALLY different reactions to this and it’s interesting.
YES! Been waiting on this one for a while!
Check out Rachel Silver's voice
Great song, great voice, but damn. This video always felt disturbing to me. The combination of how young she was and how thin she was just made her seem like she needed a parent to step in. I know, I know. She was 19 during filming. But that doesn't change her appearance.
