  • Tori Amos covers Britney Spears' "Baby One More Time" at the Paramount Theater in Oakland on July 13 2009. I combined the video posted by lindseymero with the better quality audio posted by robertschrader.

    • @hello-vs4dc

      I first saw Tori live in 1992 … and I *really* miss Tori’s AUDIENCE from those early years. You could LITERALLY hear a pin drop whenever she was speaking or singing because the audience was smart enough (and polite enough) to keep quiet until the last note of each song had stopped reverberating; only then would they clap and cheer. It was truly a spiritual experience, and the audience behaved properly in Tori’s “church.” Unfortunately, by the late 1990s, her audiences started behaving like this one does - cheering so much and so loudly throughout the songs that you really cannot hear Tori, or her piano, very well. I can’t make heads or tails out of most of this performance because they refused to shut up (and what little I could understand was only because I’m so familiar with the original song) - which is a terrible shame because what I can hear is gorgeous …

But tori makes brits songs actually sound good and and deep (something spears never achieved) i think that's what the comment of this song being good was about. Her voice and passion make it sound good, which is why tori is and will be (for a long time possibly forever) the queen

      Max Martin should be honoured, I presume you mean. Britney is just someone who can dance rather well and sing okay enough to get by with a lot of doubling by backup singers. Max wrote and produced it, so it's he who should be honoured at other versions being sung.

    @lutalice - you're right. I must have inferred that part from something else entirely. But Tori did say that Maybe California is about maternal suicide and a struggling economy. The song is written from the perspective that she's trying to offer hope to any wife or mother who might be considering suicide.
