Not surprised! This song is hard enough to sing just standing there. It takes so much concentration! - My brain would explode if I had to play freakin' piano at the same time! Amazing.
@@JayDeeNoble To a professional musician neither of those things require conscious thought. Same as a typist doesn't need to think where the keys are when someone is dictating to them. She could literally be thinking about lots of other things while performing this, same as people do when driving and singing along to the radio.
@LyricsBYFionaAppleIT It's called "Spanking New Music." I'm thinking (imagine that) this was the first or one of the first times she did this on stage. After this she decided to do it away from the piano. I wish there was a DVD of this concert.
I was staring at the sky, just looking for a star To pray on, or wish on or something like that I was having a sweet fix of a daydream of a boy Whose reality, I knew, was a hopeless to be had But then the dove of hope began its downward slope And I believed for a moment that my chances were Approaching to be grabbed, but as it came down near, so did a weary tear I thought it was a bird, but it was just a paper bag Hunger hurts and I want him so bad, oh, it kills 'Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up I got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts but starving works when it costs too much to love And I went crazy, again today, looking for a strand to climb Looking for a little hope Baby, said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine A fail to kiss is a fail to cope I said, honey, I don't feel so good, don't feel justified Come on, put a little love here in my void He said it's all in your head And I said so's everything, but he didn't get it I thought he was a man, but he was just a little boy Hunger hurts and I want him so bad, oh, it kills 'cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up I got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works when it costs Too much to love, hunger hurts, but I want him so bad, oh, it kills 'Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works me when it costs Too much to love, hunger hurts, but I want him so bad, oh, it kills Because I know that I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving It works when it costs too much to love, mmm

Fiona saved my life! Her music stopped me frow killing myself!
fiona is such a queen
That voice, those lyrics, that piano, that pretty pretty face... Sublime.
This is one of her best performaces of this song! Brilliant 🔥
Excruciatingly emotional, perfect, timeless song.
3:04-3:10.
Only Fiona can go as low as that and sound that good!
This is amazing. Her vibrato!!
I love songs with 13th and major 9th chords! (Or as they are often referred to: "jazz chords")
" Cause I know I'm mess, he don't want to clean up...."
It's always the "mm hmm" for me😊
Thanks Fiona! You save me every day!
Thank you very much for posting it!

Please don't give up Fiona
Amazing performance 💗💗😍😍
Those who decided to "thumbs down" this are people that I don't want to know
The chilllllssss
I was staring at the sky, just looking for a star
To pray on, or wish on or something like that
I was having a sweet fix of a daydream of a boy
Whose reality, I knew, was a hopeless to be had
But then the dove of hope began its downward slope
And I believed for a moment that my chances were
Approaching to be grabbed, but as it came down near, so did a weary tear
I thought it was a bird, but it was just a paper bag
Hunger hurts and I want him so bad, oh, it kills
'Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
I got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts but starving works when it costs too much to love
And I went crazy, again today, looking for a strand to climb
Looking for a little hope
Baby, said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine
A fail to kiss is a fail to cope
I said, honey, I don't feel so good, don't feel justified
Come on, put a little love here in my void
He said it's all in your head
And I said so's everything, but he didn't get it
I thought he was a man, but he was just a little boy
Hunger hurts and I want him so bad, oh, it kills 'cause
I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
I got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving works when it costs
Too much to love, hunger hurts, but I want him so bad, oh, it kills
'Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up
I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving works me when it costs
Too much to love, hunger hurts, but I want him so bad, oh, it kills
Because I know that I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up
I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving
It works when it costs too much to love, mmm
love u F
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

what show is this?
Saturday Night Live
Actually it’s MTV, on a segment called “Spankin’ New Music Live”. It was performed in NYC in 1999.
I miss her…the way she looks in this video. Over the last few years she looks to be so incredibly thin.
Tour De Force...
I think this is playback ._.
That was sooo nonsense hehe
