She is a huge Prince fan and has been saying it for over a decade. She lists him as one of her primary influences and if you listen carefully within her older music you can really hear it.
@@slickrick1042 this woman wasn’t even relevant 10 years ago. She featured on one hit song and made 3 albums that are absolute garbage. Her record label cancelled her last album because it was going to bomb. Don’t believe me? You can see the promotion for the album that was meant to come out in 2021. Her career was over before it begun.
@@o.j.79 I didn’t know that nor do I really care. I just discovered her music about a year ago. I can see the decline of the music though. She tries to get too artsy with it. Her starting music was more Taylor Swift and her middle music was good but her newer music is woke trash! When she moved to New York it all started going down hill for her. She can’t play the same song twice the same and I guess it really is true. Get woke go broke!
@@o.j.79omg look who is here again? The internet tycoon? What a way to waste your life - writing poisoned comments all day long. Damn u must have been rejected by her or I don’t know why anyone would generate so much hate all around. And I know the best part? She couldn’t care less about your existence, while you are here being salty and it’s just making YOUR life worse. Myself I’m not gonna waste any of my time on a damaged individual like you, stay salty 😂
After the Gotye song came out I went done this Kimbra rabbit hole. I listened to everything she did, watched every video I could find. I liked how diverse her style was and how she used her voice for mimicking instruments. That's something that I used to do in the early 90's with a microphone plugged into a delay and flange pedal whilst adjusting the pitch and rate of delay. My voice ended up sounding like a synth. Her creativity is inspiring, she also seems very down to earth which I love.
She’s like an angel… pretty sure she hasn’t blown up because she didn’t sell her soul… and hey… this is just my belief so just think before you criticize lol cheers 🍻
When she started talking about women in the industry, I really felt that. When I was in audio editing classes in university there was always some men (at the same level as me) shooting down my ideas or being belittling about my limited technical vocabulary, despite the fact we were in an entry-level class. I started teaching myself to produce my own music so that I wouldn't have to create music in an environment that was pretentious. We are all just trying to make songs and have a good time and work hard. Also, I love Kimbra, Settle Down is one of my favorite songs ever! I didnt know she was the voice in Used to Know until this vid :)
A lot of men feel threatened when a woman is as good or even better and they feel the need to try and belittle women so they give up and these men with little self esteem feel better about themselves. I cheer you on in your journey. Don't ever stop because some little worm is trying to crawl up in you.
@@udontknowmeno What are you talking about? In every environment I’ve ever worked in, men couldn’t care less who works alongside them effectively. I feel like this is one of those narratives that people parrot without any consideration. “Oh, but there was this time….” Right, you encountered an asshole. You think dudes don’t encounter assholes?
@@manifestgtr I think you were trying to answer Elisha. But other than that: oh of course dudes encounter bad people sometimes but they are not as often as women put down just because of their gender.
"I didnt know she was the voice in Used to Know until this vid." That's amazing. I only know her because of Used to Know. Glad you know her better and for her own work. The sexism and misogyny, needs to end. It's so arcaic and stupid.
It was 12 years ago with her win with Gotye that made wonder who she was finding her name was Kimbra and then I found so many of her amazing underrated music videos on You Tube!
Still LOVE this woman.. her heart, her smile, her musical fearlessness and the humanity that comes through.. there are many standout performances .. in particular from the Sing Sing studio sessions, but .. I could listen to her talk through her feelings, wants and fears for the rest of my life .. she is beyond “smart”.. a truly intelligent and kind soul. Hope she has the love she deserves, life is empty without it for a soul like hers
i love kimbra's voice , she gives of a very soothing tone and her song are really great to listen on a rainy day. its sad that generation caught up with music genre... she could've been more popular
Well Kimbra, you are a definite artist, which are in short supply these days. A very unique sound to the band, and wonderful vocals. If a producer could concatenate a few Big Smash Hits, you'd be top of the charts on all continents.
Kimbra ❤❤ she is so pretty . Whom ever she chooses is going to be one lucky person. I too have just followed her songs WOW I’m so amazed by her talent I loved many of her songs. I don’t listen to radio much other than driving. I’m so very impressed with her voice as she uses it as an instrument. I’m so hooked with her music. 🎶 ❤ she is so beautiful in this interview and I love she is very stylistic in dresses, hair, above all it’s her voice, her beauty. ❤❤ from the USA
I've been writing and producing songs for 6 years now, still haven't found the courage to show these to anybody because I feel I suck... still I won't give up! I just keep thinking of writing songs and practicing. I wish though, that I could have a mentor, some sort of support than just 4 walls on a daily!
@@potato_sal4159 She just looks older. Changed her hair and the way she does her eyebrows. Your face size can change as you get older too - none of this has to be a result of plastic surgery.
Reminds me of sheena ringo for how much she experiments with her sound, and how amazing some tracks turn out thanks to it. Creators who dare to actually use their creativity! When artists actually care about making art, its so refreshing! They bring new light into the world with their work!
I remember the first time I heard Somebody I use to know - a buddy played it for me - I was transfixed and I remember going home that night and replaying the song over and over and over. It helped me reconcile some feelings I had since my first year at University. I spend that night writing a number of poems - I'm thinking 5 or 6 all came out - they poured emotion and memories into me and from there I was able to convert my past pain into something to help me make peace with a 19 year old me.
I'm a big fan of Gotye and Kimbra, but "Somebody That I Used to Know" is just a good song, at the right time. They both have 100 times better songs in their work. Soy un gran admirador tanto de Gotye y de Kimbra, pero "Somebody That I Used to Know" Es solo una buena canción, en el momento indicado. Ambos tienen canciones 100 veces mejores en sus trabajos.
I love Kimbra... I really love her... she´s amazing, a very deep artist... beautiful woman... wowwwwwwwwwwwwww no words just I love her.!!! Best wishes ever.!!!❤
She is her own artist and uber talented but if you combined Gaga, Jessie J, and Amy Winehouse together that person might just remind you of Kimbra. So talented.
life really is just not fair. Her face is stunning. Her voice is even better. And i was just bragging to my daughter that i make the best Ramen. Sucks to be Kimbra. 😭😅
Imagine both winning the Grammy for ROTY and Prince saying he loves your song within the same 10 second window. That’s peaking at an unreal level.
She is a huge Prince fan and has been saying it for over a decade. She lists him as one of her primary influences and if you listen carefully within her older music you can really hear it.
Imagine your entire career being defined by a song she didn’t write and then never accomplishing anything in her field for herself.

Kimbra's first solo record was great, can't believe she didn't blow up bigger
Thats the problem in this time... tiktok idiots are getting more attention then people with real talent
@@boordbelsj Kimbra's first record came out 5 years before TikTok lol what are you talking about
@@stefannita3439 think the new movie dont look up is a nice example for this..
Her first album was a mash up of half assed pop tracks. Her only song was with Gotye in 2012, she never had a hope after that.
@@boordbelsj her only real talent seems to be featuring on songs 10 years ago and not knowing when to call it quits.
She is a Powerhouse..... just unreal talent

She seems so confident and self empowered. 👏
She is a musician in a world of performers.
YES!
@@Bloodworia she’s a soulless artist who sold out but couldn’t actually ‘sell out’ because Gotye only did one song with her
@@o.j.79interesting take

What a lovely person she is we need more artists like her. We need more Kimbras, Bjorks, Grimes, Aurora & Hania Rani.
Fiona apple
Sky Ferreira
Lorde
Fka twigs
and less Anitta's
caroline polacheks and imogen heaps
Kate Bushes
Sheena Ringos
Hikaru Utadas
Florence Welches

Lianne La Havases
Elisas (Italian singer-songwriter and producer)
I agree with you
She looks amazing. Nice to see the industry has not destroyed her. She's so grounded. Amazing song.

Been following Kimbra for years. Love her, and love this little minidoc.
Kimbra is such a natural, not just as a singer, but in front of the cameras she just shines !!
You my dear are one of a kind. Such a wonderful, beautiful sound that comes from your heart and soul.
being masterful at what you do and being a nice person at the same time - love that
Absolutely fell in love with "Vows". Such a fantastic sounding album, especially loud in my car!
I loved her first album! Reminds me of 2012. A hard and transitional time in my life. She was there with me all the time! I love you Kimbra!!!!
I can’t wait for her to blow other people’s mind!!! Been listening since Vows.
One of the greatest live performers I’ve ever seen. Outstanding

massively underrated artist
She's an incredible artist, so talented 💖
Aurora & Kimbra are 2 amazing talented creative woman.Would luv to see them collaborate
i love kimbra's voice , she gives of a very soothing tone and her song are really great to listen on a rainy day. its sad that generation caught up with music genre... she could've been more popular
One of the funnest and most moving voices I've ever heard. So talented.
I think I am mesmerized by her beauty. And I can hear her beauty in her songs.
Cant wait to learn from Kimbra. Love soundfly

I'm not sure what i would be happier with, the grammy itself or Prince saying he loves your song.
Prince sux
@@Simran-sl9lx well, he's dead so don't you mean he 'Suxed'
love her confidence which is derived from real experience and hard work
I've love that you can hear the LA in her accent. She's lovely, I've been a fan for awhile and I love her

Kimbra, you'd be great at audio books and voiceovers - your voice is amazing. Have you ever done any?
I absolutely love Kimbra's Voice , face , and style.
This woman is awesome! 😮 i’m sore that I just discovered her, but also glad that I finally did.
One of the most beautiful voices in music
I love Kimbra. She is interesting. Her music is a journey of exploration using voice, style, and a sense of vision. Thank you @Kimbra.
She has a wonderful speaking voice as well.

Her most outstanding feature. Her vocal uniqueness. Love Kimbra.
She looks so different now
Soooo true it’s insane I wish she didn’t do plastic surgery
Glad to know I’m not the only one
ikr. I found her really pretty before. Not that she's not pretty now, I just like how she looked before more
@@potato_sal4159 She just looks older. Changed her hair and the way she does her eyebrows. Your face size can change as you get older too - none of this has to be a result of plastic surgery.

"The Golden Echo" is, bar none, the most underrated pop album ever made. Fight me.
What a great soothing speaking voice she possesses!

@@chaos6504 Gotye: heart a mess - coming back - thanks for you time, etc
Kimbra: Good intent - plain gold ring - two way street - good intent, etc
Are you kidding me?
love her music and personality. her knowledge is great about production
What a smart and articulate woman . So special!
Her accent has become such an America-Kiwi hybrid. Weeirdd
She is an absolute treasure and talented artist much loved
Kimbra is a super talented musician. Greetings from Arizona.
Gods I love her music and voice
and big brain
I love Kimbra... I really love her... she´s amazing, a very deep artist... beautiful woman... wowwwwwwwwwwwwww no words just I love her.!!! Best wishes ever.!!!❤
Her voice is amazing
Smart, mature and talented!
Most pop musicians don't have an aesthetic. Kimbra does and articulates herself intelligently.
so cool!! grew up listening to kimbra ❤ thanks for this amazing documentary/interview!
How have I just found out about her? She's amazing.
Beautiful talented and seems really down to earth, i love her
she is a real star of this song
You’re amazing Kimbra. Appreciate your contributions to music❤️🤟🏾
I remember first hearing her on a Miami Horror song years ago. Fell in love with that song and her voice straight after!
Damn, imagine Prince saying "I love this song" about a song you were a part of creating.
lol and him presenting you a Grammy at the same time. Mind Blown XD
Kimbra is a gem💖
Me encanta conocerla un poco mas! gracias
The best of the best=Kimbra!❤
Woah. Love her! Great video. Cheers 🍻
WOw she has changed ALOT!! I liked her face shape when she was singing :)
Ayyyyy! Settle Down is my favorite Kimbra Song. Classic.
You know it's a good one when Prince says "Oh I love this song."
I love this woman.
❤️
Killer voice, killer beats/loops, smart AF, and gorgeous. What more could you want in an artist?
She is her own artist and uber talented but if you combined Gaga, Jessie J, and Amy Winehouse together that person might just remind you of Kimbra. So talented.
Kimbra's music is quality music!❤
She is a very talented sweetheart! Happy birthday 🎉today
Brilliant voice 🤘🏴🔥
Beautiful and talented woman!! Wish to hear her more!!! Way to go Kimbra. 👌👌👍👍❤❤
I'm glad she's showing her ears now
life really is just not fair. Her face is stunning. Her voice is even better. And i was just bragging to my daughter that i make the best Ramen. Sucks to be Kimbra. 😭😅
Kimbra🔥❤️
Love Kimbra 🔥 true to herself
Kimbra likes metal and prog rock, maybe that’s why she is the only “pop” artist I like.
I only knew her from the Gotye tune but will go the rabbit hole for a bit now.
May I suggest "Plain gold ring" live at Sing Sing, just to knock you out of the stratosphere 🙃 bye and have a nice trip!
I feel like if Prince told me he loved my song I'd be like "yeah y'all can keep this Grammy. I won life."
Wow, just wow!
Kimbrs GREAT VOICE !!!!!!
may i know the background music... it was so nice
LOVE the earrings!
love your music!!
She is awesome.
She looks Super different compare to older Kimbra from somebody that I use to know. Maybe cuz her hairstyle ❤️
Kimbra is a legend 😊
she had her moment with that song.
W/o balenciga top obviously worn before the shirt went down 🎉
More concerned about the "World starvation program" logo on the other side.
Insanely beautiful and talented ❤
...she is so underrated.
Watched an interview of her at 21 and now, talk about that American-esque accent she has now.
Bruh I never knew a hairstyle change could affect a person's appearance this much. She's unrecognizable
