Fiona Apple cover of The Whole of the Moon - Live version

- Fiona Apple covered The Waterboys’ The Whole of the Moon for the series finale of Showtime’s The Affair. She asked Tony Berg to produce the record. Tony called in Matt Chamberlain, Patrick Warren, Ethan Gruska, Wendy Melvoin, and Phoebe Bridgers.
Fiona has worked often with Matt and Patrick and knew Ethan as the brother of her former bandmate, drummer, Barbara. This was the first time she had met Wendy and Phoebe and fell in love with both of them.
In a few hours they produced this beautiful rendition of a classic written by Mike Scott. After Mr. Scott (@ MickPuck) heard the performance he tweeted - “Prepare ye to receive goosebumps.”
Fiona practiced the first take in a small vocal closet but when it came time for the main event, Tony moved Fiona into the big room where she had a great expanse to sing into. I tagged along with my new camera which I could barely work because I had forgotten my glasses - couldn’t see the buttons, couldn’t focus. Despite the crappy camera work of a blind photographer, the magic that is Fiona shines through. I hope you enjoy this captivating version of a sublime song.
Drums - Matt Chamberlain
Chamberlin - Patrick Warren
Bass - Wendy Melvoin
Piano - Ethan Gruska
Background Vocals - Phoebe Bridgers
BTW, Fiona was named after a character in the musical, Brigadoon. And Tony Berg is the one who described Fiona as "pissed off, funny, and warm."

God this is something else.......the build, the intensity, the rasp in her voice, the rich, warm sound of the band..... she's not 'singing' as much as releasing the lyrics out of her self. Transcendent.
I've been listening to this cover since it dropped. The way Fiona just *embodies* a song is incredible. She cannot half-ass anything. And when she has a song as transcendental as this, she just fucking soars.
Passion
I don’t have words for how AWESOME this rendition of the song is. I absolutely love Fiona’s fire through her vocal expression.
I have two things to say about this performance.
First, it saved my life. Not in a metaphorical way, not in a way attenuated from reality, and not in the way "saving one's life" is sometimes used to mean "I really like this and it felt restorative to me." I mean I was going to shoot myself in the head and then I heard this cover and I listened to it for about three hours and decided not to as, I think, a direct consequence. And I don't mean to over-attribute meaning to the song itself in this process, either. Both my reasons for wanting to die, and my reasons for surviving, are unrelated to the song. Really, the song reminded me of a person, and I decided that she would be sad to find out, and so I ought to endure, for her if for no other.
But that's the power of music, at least for me. It summons ghosts and spirits and maybe God. This song summoned a ghost who saved my life. I'll spare her the pain as long as I can.
Second, if I had the talent or the capability for creative expression that Fiona Apple loses in a thumbnail clipping, I should count myself fortunate beyond measure. I am overawed by this performance and astonished it isn't the most popular piece of "pop music," as it were, in recent years.
Anyway, suffice it to say, thanks for posting this.
Thank you for telling us this. You didn't need to. I am so sorry for that kind of despair and I hope you find more and more and more inspiration in art, music, nature, people to propel you forward. Someone once said, keep walking past the open windows. Please come back and share any time you want. I will always look for you.
First, I am glad you chose to stay alive. Second, this song is a magnificent cover of a magnificent song. It merits deep listening. Finally, I hope you have found help to keep from getting that depressed again. The process isn't always easy, but it's worth it.
AR I am Glad you are here X you sound like a beautiful soul X much love and respect to you XXX🙏🎶💚this version of the song by Fiona is so full of Passion xxx
If you don't already you should channel you're depression/issues to writing professionally because you are excellent at it. Good luck!
Thank you for writing/sharing this. I can completely relate to much of it, and it is an example of what keeps some of us who experience severe depression around - it's out of respect for those who care about us - and I remember clearly the night I had this exact "rationalization to keep enduring" discussion with myself. Also, "the talent or the capability for creative expression that Fiona Apple loses in a thumbnail clipping" as a phrase/opinion, is nothing short of genius ☺ xo
You know its a remarkable performance when you think to yourself, "This is fucking powerful...and I cannot explain why." If you can explain it, there is no magic, just mathematics. Fiona seems this collision of contrictions, deeply vulnerable yet fiercesome...
No one should have such perfect taste... it hurts more to know someone felt like I do...
Truly a magical performance, from her soul to our heart.
There is likely no bigger fan of The Waterboys than myself. The thought of another artist covering one of Mike Scott's gems seemed like heresy. I stand humbled and publicly corrected. Fiona Apple has delivered a definitive version of this marvelous song. The raw emotion and vulnerability of this performance is unmatched by anything I've seen before. And the physicality of the performance! I love the shot toward the end showing her foot keeping the beat! Wow. What a great song and interpretation.
Grew up watching the Waterboys at Ayr Pavilion and Barrowlands....proud to be Scottish

Mike Scott himself shared this version on his socials. He loved it!
Fiona Apple also does an excellent version of Aross the Universe.
Yea she can do that: : Across the Universe, Pure Imagination
One of my all time favorite covers. When the Waterboys sing it, it's "you saw the whole of the moon and I love you for it." When Fiona sings it, it's "You saw the whole of the moon and I'll never forgive you for it."
Thats nice and all....but neither ever use those words. Those arent the lyrics. Thats just you trying to needlessly be profound and melodramatic.
@@avidadolares thanks for your comment and your rapid assessment of my character. I wasn’t trying to quote the song, though; I was attempting to compare the two different meanings of the lyrics. I could have been more clear.
@@louisgreenstein6886 I think the quote marks could have been placed better but I understand what you said, for whatever it's worth. 🙂
@@Elwaves2925 Ok I'll bite. Where could the quotes have been better placed? I mean, for what it's worth.
@@louisgreenstein6886 Where the actual lyrics end, then you add your bit after. So your first one would be - "you saw the whole of the moon" and I love you for it.
As I said, I fully got your meaning, it was obvious to me, moving the quotes simply makes it clearer. 🙂
I have a twin brother who lived clear across country but we texted everyday about childhood memories, inside jokes, etc. Not too long ago he and I fell in love with this version after I stumbled onto it via The Affair (but we were lucky enough to love the Waterboys in college) and probably account ourselves for about 100,000 views on the above viewer counter. We loved this soul-shaking version SO. Much. that both of us said, "You know, I think I'd want this played at my funeral." Well, he died of a heart attack in late 2021 way far too young. I posted part of the lyrics in his obituary -- it describes how we different people think and act -- and let me tell you - we survivors will sure as shit play this at his post-Covid remembrance soon (and maybe try the flashmob dance too from The Affair). Thanks Fiona for pouring every single available life-affirming molecule of experience and power into this!
Thanks for posting your affecting and remarkable memory of what this song meant to you and your dear brother, for whose loss I am truly sorry.
I'm 70 and I'm a Fiona fan. Never too late to have a happy childhood!!
68 here and a recent convert. Her raw emotion is electric.
71 here...my first Fiona listenjng...❤
No age limits on great music!❤
This song means so much to so many. It's 2023. Times are tough but keep this kind of energy going 🙌
"The Affair" brought me here. There are just a handful of artists that can sing with their entire being .... Fiona is phenomenal with this song. To say I love it, would be a gross understatement. There are songs you remember over your life. I am 73 years old. This is something I will take to the grave with me.
Compare to you I'm a young hunk, 66 yrs old only.
But I know this song since the late 90ies in original by The Waterboys.
This version here is really mindblowing.
She don't even know the lyrics, read it from a paper sheet...
but she sing it like her own song. Honestly... it's far more better then the original.
A song for my funeral... but I'm not in a hurry...
wow reading this gave me chills...
Watching The Affair brought me here as well. What a beautiful and perfect song .
The voice is the whole body - some artists (Springsteen comes to mind too) very visibly emote. Fiona is always wonderful - i rec the pure imagination cover if u havnt seen it.
I can't get over how abruptly she goes from "genius artist possessed by the music" to "silly person who dances like a dork" as soon as she is done!
(And I love it)
Yes! Haha, I noticed, with pleasure, that contrast as well. She WAS "possessed," wasnt she? All that coiled energy, you could tell she fckn LOVES this song, as we all do!
Not for me 😂
Night Fiona
I've just stumbled across this and it's amazing. I lost what I call a brother in Syria and this was his song. My name is Neil and am from 1 Para regiment when I lost a brother and this song just got me. Even if you're reading the lyrics who cares but the haters, leave them to it. Love the song and love you
She's sounds as good as she did a quarter of a century ago.
And that smile and dance at the end is as beautiful as she is at 43 without a stich of makeup.
THIS IS JUST GREAT. Fiona sings her heart out so beautifully. Can't get enough of this.
This performance gives me chills. The way she performs is a really honest way to communicate feelings. Maybe there is hope for me, yet.
I was managing record stores when Fiona Apple released her debut. I was never a fanboy but I thought it was a good record. Never bothered me when all the employees played the hell out of it. I liked it. That was 1996 and towards the end of my record store days. I hung on till 1999.
Flash forward and my wife says “Hey, check this out. I know you really liked The Waterboys.” I listened and watched. Then I listened and watched again. And again. It is just a perfect glimpse of an artist giving it all she’s got and losing herself in a song. Just fantastic to watch and damn fine version if I may say. I don’t comment on RUclips videos pretty much ever but props to Fiona Apple.
Wowee. Thanks record-store guy. Everyone who has ever shopped in a record store will be eternally grateful that your wife was able to pry your attention from your busy day (I'm guessing you're a day trader now.) to made a comment. We all just adored shopping at record stores. Um. Thank you for your service.
@@whitetigress7448 😂Thanks! You are so welcome.
🌙🤍🌙
Handsome dude with good taste in music
I think she improved on the Waterboy's original. She just gave it that much more emotion and intensity.
I am addicted to this song and the pure energy within. Keep playing this over and over again. Is this normal? 🤔
probably not, but what the hell....
The true songs, books, and films reward and require deep and repeated examination. They always contain more to enjoy, understand, and uncover. Normal is an ordinary machine setting. It's no crime to be an extraordinary machine.
Me too :)
Yes!! Totally normal! It's passion - it's life - drink it in - play it forever!
Probably not ? But I understand
I've been struggling a lot with mental health this year like many of us, becoming exhausted every day with just pulling myself out of the quicksand of spiralling negative thoughts and bad feelings, and the simplest tasks become monumentally difficult. But watching this just now gave me such a huge boost of strength and courage. I saw Fiona in Kingston, NY in 1997 when I was 14 (she was just 19 at the time!) and it's making me very emotional now to see this fierce woman still pushing on and doing this powerful work all this time, in spite of all of the forces in this world that try to tear down women and queer people like myself, as well as PoC and other marginalised people, to see Fiona in 2021 shining and looking so strong and fierce as ever in this video just set my heart ablaze. I'm gonna keep pushing on. I love you Fiona, Thank you for everything
"use your powers for good"
Stay strong brotha...as u are ure more then gud enough.🌈🙂
I hear you - check out The Waterboys This is the Sea! It will help you expand and release the knot in you, Say yes and enjoy your life no matter what's going on! and write me anytime
I've been there, Jon. I'm so sorry. Please, please please remember to celebrate the small victories, ok? When you're lost in that awful darkness, doing even the smallest tasks become massive. Did you remember to eat today? That's awesome! If you got up, showered, reached out to someone, etc today, that is HUGE, and I'm so proud of you.
@@WobblesandBean this is so kind and thoughtful! Thank you for these kind words 🙏🏻♥️
I have no words...the way she sings it...I'm stunned by her emotion...thank you Fiona, and the Waterboys
Impressive. I was afraid she will not be able to give the song justice but I enjoyed her interpretation
ruclips.net/video/awBFsUDan9M/видео.html this is a proper version
Amen Brother!
She feels every damn word she is singing with every inch of her body. It's so mesmerizing.
You said exactly what I was feeling and going to post in my comment! She's a 100% kind of person and a great start for 2021!
Absolutely, I love her theme tune to "The Affair". Spellbinding.
@@ohiomoto go away, like, what makes you need to tromp on someone's joy? Truly? You must be a very sad person.
@@son_of_a_Bun okay bye
@@ohiomoto NO ONE ASKED YOU FOR YOUR OPINION!!! BYEEEEEEE!!!!
Speaks volumes for covers, own it, respect it and fkn bring it..
I love the ending, she is totally immersed throughout the whole song then finally that little double- take at the camera and she seems to come back from another place and realise she's in the room. Think that's one of the reasons I love this so much, illustrates how much passion she felt
Not only sung, but feeling it...
Fkn great cover, get me to tears.
I’m not a great singer but it’s a fun song to sing too! Let’s some pain out.
Unbelieavable, she sings with every inch of her Being
The rawness of her performance makes me want to tear myself into pieces, and the urge gets stronger with each new piece of her material. Sublime.
I suggest that you don’t listen while driving a car.
well said sir. well said.
Galway girl here, big fan of the Waterboys. I have seen them live several times over the years. I usually hate versions of original songs that I love, but this is raw real and really good. Love it!!!!
This will be the one song played at my funeral, in a church with a violin, and piano. The voice, passion, and acoustics will reach heaven you can be sure of that.
The power of Fiona’s delivery on this is just amazing. It doesn’t get any better than this.
It actually does, ruclips.net/video/awBFsUDan9M/видео.html
JESUS GODDDDDDD....this is one of my favorite songs of all time and with FIONA. My heart is about to leave my body.
Lyrics
I pictured a rainbow
You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!
You were there at the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!
I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truths
You cut through lies
I saw the rain-dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!
With a torch in your pocket
And the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
And you know how it feels
To get too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!
Unicorns and cannonballs,
Palaces and piers,
Trumpets, towers, and tenements,
Wide oceans full of tears,
Flags, rags, ferry boats,
Scimitars and scarves,
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars
Yes, You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!
Fiona Apple has an amazing voice - The Whole of the Moon shows how she puts everything she has into a song. Spectacular.
"But you SWOONED" @ 2:50....I am a Waterboys, and Mike Scott fan full on. But damn, that just cuts to the chase of the lyric. Bravo.
Absolutely breathtaking and heartbreaking… true… real… love. …🌙🤍🌙
spot on!
This was the first song I ever heard from The Waterboys, back in 1986 when the video came out and I've been a fan ever since. This song has always gotten to me - but listening to her sing it takes it to an entirely different level.
Please release this officially so we can buy, instead of listening here over and over : )
You can always listen again and again the original version or one of their wonderful live renditions. The Waterboys.
@@Mr.RodrigoGomez I love both versions.
Fiona has a totally stronger delivery of every single syllable in these beautiful lyrics.
The trumpets are the icing on the cake.
My daughter (22) and I (51) have really connected on this one. Perfect
This is one of my all time favorite songs, i wasn't sure if i should click on it and hear a different version.
I'm glad i did.
👍
That might be the most emotional lyrical performance EVER 🙏🏻❤️😊
That was exhilarating to experience - she fully inhabits a song- 'mind, body and voice.' One of the greats!
I my opinion this is the best song ever written and from the first time I heard it in1985 while living in Hong Kong to today the "Waterboys" sang this song, no more there's a new sheriff in town and her name is "Fiona" what a pleasure watching someone leave the planet and get lost in that beautiful realm called music.
At first I thought: there is zero need for a cover of any Waterboys song, so no, no thanks. But the genius of FA is that in this version the music remains faithful to the original but the mood is utterly transformed. The more I watch it (and it's many, many times already) the more I notice that her understanding of the emotional register of these lyrics almost overwhelms her in the first minute: it's almost like she can't bear it. But she steels herself, and her body gets on with it. The videographer is amazing, rendering the emotion in her face, noticing her body responding to the music, then panning down towards the end of the performance to her stomping foot on the incongruous rug. It's glorious. There are times when I absolutely hate humanity: loathe people, when disappointment with people reaches its crushing zenith, but this is not one of these moments. This song, this performance, FA's dance at the end, her uttering of the word "swoon," her literal swooning at the end, remind me of what is great about the human beings. Anyway, not that I am completely fucking obsessed by this.
Thank you for taking the time to respond. The filming was an accident; the performance, transcendent. I know how much Fiona loves this song and even hesitated when she received the request. Everyone involved wanted to do the song justice and also give the show producers what they needed. It was a day of one take miracles rooted in the over 200 years of musical experience among the creators. As I get older I realize you have to do the hard prep work but then when it is time to perform, throw it all away and be in the moment and trust your training. Fiona is my reminder. I’m glad you enjoyed this and again thank you for your thoughts.
@@Zoo1Luu Thanks for the reply Zelda. It's an extraordinary song, exceptional interpretation of it, and your film-making is beautiful work.
Love the original but if anything the angry delivery of the lyrics by Fiona is even more sublime. Love the way she is totally throws herself into the emotion and the sweet reaction at the end when she realises that she’s been photographed, smiles and does a comic jig. Also the fade at the end which she sings with a nod to Bowie
Highlights how a good song can translate across generations, gender, and arrangement. Great version!
This song makes me cry! Fiona apple saved my life with her music! I hope she knows how great she realy is? I would of died! If it wasnt for her music!
This is just perfect. The definitive version of a GREAT song. She is a force of nature and I adore her.
Can I be a Fiona Apple fan girl at age 67? ❤️❤️
I'm 67 and I've been a fan since she started. My oldest daughter introduced me to her music. I love it!
Course you can , Mary. With age comes wisdom not to mention good taste!!!
Yes Mary!!
Just tell them "I" sent you, V I P+ for you
I am 64 and I am, for sure, a huge fan :-) take care.
Fiona Apple is amazing when she sings anything at all. She pours her whole self into it and brings me to tears with the beauty of her work and her soul.
Wow. She doesn’t hold back!! I’m grateful to be living in the same time as Fiona Apple . 🙏⭐️
Fiona Apple is one of my very favorite artists, extraordinary at everything she does. An amazing poet, writer, producer, and singer. This is just more proof. Wow.
maybe this will get some folks to check out Mike Scott and The Waterboys ... this song always pulls me to a place on the line of tears and night rain sounding distant trains
this x 1,000
Beautify worded. I’ll listen to the original. Try watching the show she sang this for. Heart wrenching.
From my hometown of Ayr Scotland....saw them circa 1985 for the first time....a raw Celtic band of real musicians. Should also check out Kevin McDermott Orchestra
my cousin was their drummer about 10 years ago the waterboys that is
Sun literally just broke out of the clouds here in Boston almost immediately after I started this. Fiona, the effect your music has had on me is indescribable.
That’s our girl! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That beautiful smile, jig and collapse at the end...she knows she's nailed it.
The sheer raw beauty and force in this performance literally blows me away...!!!!
I can't stop watching this, and sharing with others. It's so raw, and so beautiful. Thank you, Fiona
I never knew this existed. Mike Scott is a great great song writer. His songs have a real soul. This is a small bright spot on a tough day. The Universe gets it. And Fiona is as brilliant as ever. Raw passion. So good.
Well, no need to add much commentary on this rendition. Goddamn, I love The Waterboys. Fiona really smashes this one.
A Gnostic Right is right. Great,great, music. Real doesn’t need commentary. Good day to you my friend.
When I was at university we used to go to house parties in Glasgow. There was always a record player in the corner and either 'The magnificent Seven', The Clash, or the Waterboys were on constant play. Especially when you fell out of a cupboard in the morning after a big drink (It's a Scottish thing). Anyway, I've always loved the 'Whole of the moon', which connects me. So, to have heard this version by Fiona has blown me away. This is, absolutely, the best version of this song I have ever heard. It took me back AND moved me forward.
Is there anything this gorgeous creature cant sing within an inch of its life? Ridiculous power ... still gives me chills every time she digs in with those vocal frys ... pure talent
I just... love her. She deserves the world.
She got the whole of the moon
I'm really looking forward to Fiona doing a covers album soon. Her covers are always great.
They really are! I'm not usually into covers but Fiona's are always spectacular!
she is gonna make a cover album???
Check her out in the Laurel canyon Album with Jacob Dylan
@@raymondfink9580 Absolutely, was thinking the same thing.
And a cover that is quite opposite of this raw beauty is her take of Buddy Holly's "Everyday". So pristine and gorgeous.
@@markb20 Another one to check out is her and her sister covering "I'm in the Middle of a Riddle" (Fiona+Maude is always great)
I have always loved this song by the Waterboys, but Fiona has mastered actually being the song, feeling it with every fibre of her body and soul. A rendition that cuts across colour, age, whatever. So incredibly moving. 63 Quebec Canada.
THIS is how you cover a great song~! Thank you Ms. Apple. :)
When Fiona covers a song she doesn’t leave a single part of it exposed. Hope she does a whole album of covers. Or a whole album of duets with Maude.
This is stunning. It's my favourite song but Fiona, you have taken it to another level. I feel your emotion.
What a unique person, this one. Always touched by her sensitivity. A true dedicated artist, some of her own songs you can't even imagine they might exist, a creative genius, talent cause her heart speaks.
This is my fourth listen in a row. I love the original but this is just stunning. Such raw, naked emotion. This has prompted me to order Fetch The Boltcutters. Thank you for posting. You threw a drowning man a lifeline today.
Ha, same here...!
Incredible! I heard a lot of covers of this over the years since this song came out . I'm 55 and never heard it sang with such powerful emotions.
Check out her Elvis Costello cover of "I Want You". It's magnificent!
Lol at the end 😂 I may have teared up from joy. I would love nothing more than for Fiona to get in the habit of sharing raw moments like this. For no reason than to share her gift with us who appreciate so much. Love to you both.
"That was great, Fiona. Could we try one more where you sound like you mean it ?"
I love this with all of my heart. I loved the original and Fiona's version kills me.
This song has meant so many different things to me over the years, and I love the original, but Fiona's vocal intensity gives me chills. Great version!
I usually don't like cover versions that don't do anything new with the song, but on this one, the fact that the instrumentation stays pretty true to the original lets you focus on the raw beauty of her voice.
First time The Affair was shown on Netflix, I was hooked on Fiona Apple's voice and the intro song. And the series. Just rewatched it, still love both.
I love that it looks like she is happy and having fun at the end of the recording.
I’m speechless. This is so beautiful 😢
Brilliant! especially because she adds a ievel of bitterness to a song when the original is anything but! (Don't get me wrong this is far from a criticism of a song/band I love, but Apple's interpretation really suits the end of The Affair!!)
I totally agree with you. She makes a new interpretation of the lyrics, miles away from how Mike Scott did them. Nothing wrong about that, but very interesting. From Mike's wonder, awe and intensity to Foina's raw, angry and bitter? approach/performance.
I agree
she makes it Sublime- Universal.....
Yes, I think it was always there in the lyrics and even a bit in the original, but so many other versions are straight up celebratory and joyful, whereas this exposes the envy, frustration and anger which is always lurking when we express admiration.
@@mellonudrigle6217 was it in the original? Suppose we'd have to ask Mike Scott! 😉
I love just watching her feel the music and enjoying the process! Incredible cover!
OMG this version is stunning! She is really a more powerful singer with age.
The sheer passion that Fiona gives to EVERY performance and song. I bow.
I remember when this first came out. A very powerful song. This is so good it exclipses the original. You can see how invested she is in the performance. Is magnificent too strong?
Nope! I agree
Holy shit... I just heard this for the first time and immediately rewatched it 3 more times... and I think I'm gonna have to give it at least one more listen tonight!
I have never burst out crying unexpectedly to a performance before, but I just have...3 times. It must have been built up to get out! This is just amazing. I grew up with the original and never thought it could be equalled but I was wrong! Thank you Fiona.
Me too. Just as I read your comment. She's so magic. I was wondering where she was going with this, until the tears told me.
Yes, and still teary. I didn't know I needed that release. I rly feel she is an incredible gift to all of us
There's something mesmerising about watching someone deliver an extraordinary performance, irrespective of their discipline. This is raw, brilliant, and extraordinary. I am transfixed!
I love Fiona, and I absolutely adore Phoebe Bridgers. I really appreciate covers, too. Yet every time I hear anyone cover this song I must immediately listen to the original recording. The best recording of any song produced in the 80s, I
You could hardly be more committed to song than this, Jeezo. I love that - cathartic - smile at 4:53. "Sobran palabras".
Thank you, Fiona for giving so much love to this song❤
Definitely, I love this woman. She is an incredible talented artist.
A great version of a wonderful song, absolutely love the passion and energy that Fiona brings to it.
Thanks Fiona..that will get me through the rest of my life. Amazing..
She sings the way great guitarists play! WOW.
If I didnt know I would think this was her song. It sounds so personal and intimate the way she sings with so much passion I love her voice!!
She became such a big thing so quickly, I wasn't sure if her stuff would hold up over time. But now when I go back to those albums and other singer songwriters, it's still all there and more with her.
Hard to believe a masterpiece could be improved on, but here we are. I lalways stop to listen to this song, and I love every single thing about this rendition.
I just got chills with her 1st breath! Love this!!!! Beautiful song, beautiful version!
Thank you for sharing this along with the information! 🤍
A sublime performance of one of my favourite songs ever. It gave me shivers seeing this.
I just love the strength of this lady. Absolutely wonderful. I felt EVERY word. Still do. Thank you so so very much. All my love. Guy. xx
I think that is the perfect age to find an arist like this. Enjoy the music. No one is judging!
Love all. The interpretation, the music and the take.
Thanks.
So hartful, extraordinary expression, so real so great !!
Loving this version 💓💓💓
Amazing Fiona Apple 🍏
Just brilliant. One of my favourites. Never thought anyone could do it justice. But, wow!
70 yrs old and I know good music when I hear it and this women has been good for a good while, great lyricist superb vocalist
