She recorded it at 15 if I remember the Wikipedia article

Oh well that happens when you go through rough stuff like any kind of abuse... so it's great but kinda sad she is so wise for what she's been through. Is it? It's been for the greater good.
I'm 15 and am working on an EP soon, and its her that inspired me to continue songwriting. I hope the world is less cruel to me, though, but cruel enough to stay inspired.
@@tonycolocks4511 bahahahahah right. Everyone wants to be famous n all that shit, but when it actual happens they end up not liking the view, at all. Such a waste chasing pipe dreams.
+Amie Swicegood That's exactly what she's singing about. And I've been involved with one for the past year. I heard this song today for the first time in years and it resonated perfectly. So I sent it to the SOB! #dunzo
Amie Swicegood ahh it would be so wonderful to have such power over another I'd be a narcissist if I had a shred of charisma or social acumen well I already love myself more than any on else so I'm halfway there
I don't know if there's anything sexier than a confident, dominant, charismatic man....BUT I'm one of those, "Pull my hair, spank my ass, & tell me what a good girl I am" type of girls. Hey, some girls like to get flowers, some like to get the paddle when they don't do the dishes. To each, their own! LOL I do think a little narcissism is a bit of a required trait in being dominant. I also happen to think that you can't love someone else until you love yourself. I've always been narcissistic in some ways. Probably why getting older is playing hell on my psyche.
This song is for those who's been hurt by someone they loved. Anyone else will just find it depressing. )) Ive been hurt so I love this song so much. There are no better words to describe how i feel right now. Thank you for this version. Its always good to have words infront of you, especially if you are a freaking foreighner like me.
Thank you so much for making this video. I wanted to send the song with lyrics to my current/ex flame who's been yanking me around for too long. And you got all the lyrics right which is a rarity! So thank you!! :)
I never noticed til now but between "ever let" and "dirty game" she takes a breath that makes her sound emotionally drained and sexy as hell at the same time
Tank you for posting this video. It's spelled correctly and has great timing to sing along with for karaoke. There are people who get upset with people who call them out for things like that.
A family member recently told Me everytime they hear this, they think of Me....... I have ALWAYS LOVED FIONA!!!! But didn't always understand the lyrics!!?!? WoW I TOTALLY GET IT NOW :(( every lyric hits home!!!!
It's an amazing feeling to know that pain I'm sure alot of us go thru I Cary this pain with me now and man to hear this song reminds me to stay strong💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Jillette Johnson did a fabulous cover of this. I think her songs are very Fiona-esque. if you want some more music, check out her song "Cameron", i think you guys would really like it
I watched The Affair because of Dominic West presence. This lead me to hear the OST and discover Fiona Apple, totally and unfairly unknown on my side of the world.
ONCE; & STILL MY BURN. You bring me to my knees. I'V been waiting around... You set your spell on me... I just wanted you. Tired of swing around. When will you make Your move?
Steven Perez I think if you asked Fiona Apple she’d probably tell you we can live in a world in which women aren’t continually forced to compete with each other. Just sayin
She touches a part of me i love and hate.... I love and hate her. Cuz she hits sooo deep. Sooooooo many of her songs do...but definitely more love than hate. ❤❤💔💔❤❤
Once my lover, now my friend What a cruel thing to pretend What a cunning way to condescend Once my lover and now my friend Oh, you creep up like the clouds And you set my soul at ease Then you let your love abound And you bring me to my knees Oh, it's evil, babe The way you let your grace enrapture me When well you know I'd be insane To ever let that dirty game recapture me You made me a shadowboxer, baby I wanna be ready for what you do And I've been swinging 'round me 'Cause I don't know when you're gonna make your move Oh, your gaze is dangerous And you fill your space so sweet If I let you get too close You'll set your spell on me So darlin' I just wanna say Just in case I don't come through I was on to every play I just wanted you Oh-oh, it's so evil, my love The way you've no reverence to my concern So I'll be sure to stay wary of you, love To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn So I'm a shadowboxer, baby I wanna be ready for what you do And I've been swinging around at nothing I don't know when you're going to make your move Yeah, I'm a shadowboxer, baby I wanna be ready for what you do And I've been swinging around me 'Cause I don't know when you're make your move Traducir al español
Fiona Apple gets up to receive her MTV award delivers a scathing cutting speech destroys her career and fades into pop music history. We was all like Damn She Done Fucked Up lol
When this album came out it seemed like she'd be around for a long time,obviously that didn't turn out to be the case....I think she sabotaged her own career which is a damn shame cuz I think she's brilliant & this is one of those songs that never gets old
I meant if she could’ve kept up the level she hit with “Criminal” which seemed like it’d be no problem for her but apparently it wasn’t what she wanted....why does everyone have to dissect comments about a song? Is it really that serious? & if it is to you I’m sorry
@candelite10 It's almost like I just wrote what you said!! I have pretty much the same thing going on, and it's such a terrible temptation that I give into. I get burned every time.
This song is what im going thru now. There is someone whom I have intense sexual chemistry with and if I get too close, I would have to fall hard but he is poison to me. Im trying to avoid him but desire is sooooo strong and it's hard because I know he wont hestitate to tempt me. I have to pray that God keeps this man away from me. I should'nt give in but the momentary pleasure is sublime, yet leaves me empty and feeling burned.
Her voice is like honey dripping over rocks. It gives me chills. She's one of a kind.
Good description. I always said it was like velvet sandpaper. Doesn't make any sense but makes me feel creative
I get chills too
Crazy to think she wrote this as a kid, she was so ridiculously aware of life. Love her so
You echo thoughts I've had since I first bought her CD years ago. One of my daughters is her age. I was blown away when I heard the album.
TheRadlike how old was she when she wrote this?
She recorded it at 15 if I remember the Wikipedia article
Oh well that happens when you go through rough stuff like any kind of abuse... so it's great but kinda sad she is so wise for what she's been through. Is it? It's been for the greater good.
Fifteen. I don't know whether she suffered in her young life or is simply a wise soul.
Oh my love for this song. She was only 19 when she recorded it. Its so damn brilliant. I have loved it ever since the first time.
I'm 15 and am working on an EP soon, and its her that inspired me to continue songwriting. I hope the world is less cruel to me, though, but cruel enough to stay inspired.
+Rick Willard I didn't realize she was so young! I thought she was in her early 20s. She is a true talent. Does she still perform?
Oval Teen so what happened to your infamous EP ?! Or did reality kick in and you realized what a pipe dream is???
@@tonycolocks4511 bahahahahah right. Everyone wants to be famous n all that shit, but when it actual happens they end up not liking the view, at all. Such a waste chasing pipe dreams.
what's with the assholes in this thread picking on a 15y.o. for having dreams lol
Her voice and this song brings chills down my spine. Shes absolutely brilliant !
M
Mmm
"I was onto every play, I just wanted you" is a great line.
In my opinion her best song. The lyrics are phenomenal. I was in a bad place many many years ago and this song so resonated with me.
Left Alone is by far her best song
I feel this song speaks about an emotionally abusive narcissist.
She is so Brilliant
Amie Swicegood Here,in France,we use "narcissistic pervert", but hey, we talk about the same freak, one of the worse type.

My 1st reply was to you, but it didn't label it as such. I must've messed up.
This lady is amazingly talented.. Her lyrics are just on point! I love that she has such an a extended vocabulary! :)
She doesn't have an "extended" vocabulary, it's pretty average.
Pretty worldly, and deep for 19 years old! Not to mention, haunting. And biting.
This song is for those who's been hurt by someone they loved. Anyone else will just find it depressing. )) Ive been hurt so I love this song so much. There are no better words to describe how i feel right now. Thank you for this version. Its always good to have words infront of you, especially if you are a freaking foreighner like me.
This song is for those who've been destroyed by someone they loved and still can't completely let go.
The anthem of trauma bonds.
15 years later and I still can't get enough of this song or Fiona!!
One of the BEST songs to come out of the 90's!
Thanks BayStateObserver!
What about Poison by Alice Cooper?
My favorite Alice Cooper song was and still is " Schools Out. "
Thanks yahirwao!
Thanks also to TheAdeleLonestar!
This is truly a hauntingly beautiful song....Fiona is amazing no doubt!
Classic and timeless. She is a fierce !!
True, 90's best music😢😢😢
I love this song, man I just discovered Fiona's music recently and I'm hooked
One of the GREATEST R & B songs to come out of the 90's!!!
Thanks Kate Holloway!
Continuing my thanks to Lori Peacock!
Also thanking sorrowsuperstar10!
It's not r&b, it's jazz.
It is evil. Downright evil. Sing it, Honey.
Yep, the narcissistic lover that friend zones you, and knows they can hook you in again. Basically, The Devil.
YES. This became my narc abuse recovery theme song.
Thank you so much for making this video. I wanted to send the song with lyrics to my current/ex flame who's been yanking me around for too long. And you got all the lyrics right which is a rarity! So thank you!! :)
Lol that's a very high school thing to do.
Still love this song 50 yrs later
lol
I never noticed til now but between "ever let" and "dirty game" she takes a breath that makes her sound emotionally drained and sexy as hell at the same time

One The Most Beautiful Hauntingly Voices I Have ever Heard In My Life
I never get sick of this song. Very good tension and release.
One of her most melodic songs, love it.
Her album Tidal was good beginning to end.
Tank you for posting this video. It's spelled correctly and has great timing to sing along with for karaoke. There are people who get upset with people who call them out for things like that.
How this song buried a lover and brought me better. Her look was dangerous, and I haven't played that game twice
"Once my lover, now my friend" That line decribes me so much that its fucking scary.
This song deserves sooo much more view and comments.
The BEST version of this song! This video is perfect! What better way to feel her lyrics than to read along with them. FANTASTIC! THANK YOU! Vaanz!
I love this song! 😊
Me too! 😊
a very good&awsome song of the 90's.love this song.beatiful indeed.had this on my mind.
This song is so amazing ♥ the lyrics kill and are sooo relatable for me..
For fickle love. A push pull and love you and doesn't. You think they love you and then they show they don't. Love this 😊
A family member recently told
Me everytime they hear this, they think of
Me....... I have ALWAYS LOVED FIONA!!!! But didn't always understand the lyrics!!?!? WoW I TOTALLY GET IT NOW :((
every lyric hits home!!!!
It's an amazing feeling to know that pain I'm sure alot of us go thru I Cary this pain with me now and man to hear this song reminds me to stay strong💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Yesss!!!!! Great song!
My brother showed me this song....she has a great voice
@610Dime she really is, i can't think of ANYONE as talented without the recognition
she's amazing
Listen to this song alone while it's snowing and freezing outside. Some serious self reflection coming your way
Jillette Johnson did a fabulous cover of this. I think her songs are very Fiona-esque. if you want some more music, check out her song "Cameron", i think you guys would really like it

Love this song totally~~
Oh wow this is beautiful
God, I love this song!!! Thanks for the vid:-}
Now one of my favorite singers but I still love Regina spektor alot
I love them both :) ♥♥
Kuki loves this music so much....
Nothing like Fiona ...L♡Ve her!!!
ONCE; & STILL MY BURN. You bring me to my knees. I'V been waiting around... You set your spell on me... I just wanted you. Tired of swing around. When will you make Your move?
So 90s and it hurts!
Gnite whirled. I love you
This pretty much captures a "relationship" i was in at 18/19.
gorgeous song
Guys, the new album is out in two weeks! And you can already find some tracks on youtube :)
Fiona is fucking brilliant....
Love her voice. Love d lyrics
Shes the best.. love her..
possibly the greatest lyricist of her generation. who is a better female lyricist, her or Amy winehouse?
Taylor Swift & Hannah Monatana of course xD
Ani Difranco would be my vote, but I adore Amy & Fiona, too. Amy was in a category all her own!
Steven Perez I think if you asked Fiona Apple she’d probably tell you we can live in a world in which women aren’t continually forced to compete with each other. Just sayin
Reminds me of my ex wife (and to keep my distance from her)
She touches a part of me i love and hate.... I love and hate her. Cuz she hits sooo deep. Sooooooo many of her songs do...but definitely more love than hate. ❤❤💔💔❤❤
Aaagghhhhh to love a narc 💕
My favorite by her
Love it
This was my experience with a sociopath who manipulated me except we are not friends fortunately for obvious reasons. It burns though
Me adaptaste a tu manera , ahora te las tienes que bancar.
I miss you 😢
Did I make this LOL? Love it
love this song!lyrics are so dee
p .
Best.Song.Ever. :D :D :D
Working on my cover of this
Thank you great job
Amazing
I love you Fiona Apple
Its about a sorcerer a d sorceress loving each other its a beautiful dance of 2 born from the fire
According to the artist, it's about an abusive relationship.
Don't romanticise abuse
Once my lover, now my friend
What a cruel thing to pretend
What a cunning way to condescend
Once my lover and now my friend
Oh, you creep up like the clouds
And you set my soul at ease
Then you let your love abound
And you bring me to my knees
Oh, it's evil, babe
The way you let your grace enrapture me
When well you know I'd be insane
To ever let that dirty game recapture me
You made me a shadowboxer, baby
I wanna be ready for what you do
And I've been swinging 'round me
'Cause I don't know when you're gonna make your move
Oh, your gaze is dangerous
And you fill your space so sweet
If I let you get too close
You'll set your spell on me
So darlin' I just wanna say
Just in case I don't come through
I was on to every play
I just wanted you
Oh-oh, it's so evil, my love
The way you've no reverence to my concern
So I'll be sure to stay wary of you, love
To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn
So I'm a shadowboxer, baby
I wanna be ready for what you do
And I've been swinging around at nothing
I don't know when you're going to make your move
Yeah, I'm a shadowboxer, baby
I wanna be ready for what you do
And I've been swinging around me
'Cause I don't know when you're make your move

love youuuuuu fionnaaaa
Fiona is fly.
i love u fionna
God I love her. I love that she keeps her music open to both sexes. She's an amazing lyricist and a beautiful singer.
Foxeslady I adore her!!!
Fiona Apple gets up to receive her MTV award delivers a scathing cutting speech destroys her career and fades into pop music history. We was all like Damn She Done Fucked Up lol
Her 97 speech took serious ballz tho #Respect
Yup, I experienced this with an evil narcissist.
She once made a deal with the devil....The devil wanted her soul, but changed his mind, as soon as he heard her sing.
always boxing you
When this album came out it seemed like she'd be around for a long time,obviously that didn't turn out to be the case....I think she sabotaged her own career which is a damn shame cuz I think she's brilliant & this is one of those songs that never gets old
Pig Ford seems like she still has a career if you’re still listening over 2 decades later
her new album is epic shes still so talented
I meant if she could’ve kept up the level she hit with “Criminal” which seemed like it’d be no problem for her but apparently it wasn’t what she wanted....why does everyone have to dissect comments about a song? Is it really that serious? & if it is to you I’m sorry
Me too :x :))
Lana Del Rey needs to cover this. So this new generation can enjoy this amazing song written by the goddess herself Fiona Fuckn Apple!
ikr!!! they both have such unique voices

@candelite10 It's almost like I just wrote what you said!! I have pretty much the same thing going on, and it's such a terrible temptation that I give into. I get burned every time.
I say I say that you will make 5 or more Fiona Apple videos.
The song is cold blooded. Class of 03
@VaanzVideos I've heard about a new album next year
This song is what im going thru now. There is someone whom I have intense sexual chemistry with and if I get too close, I would have to fall hard but he is poison to me. Im trying to avoid him but desire is sooooo strong and it's hard because I know he wont hestitate to tempt me. I have to pray that God keeps this man away from me. I should'nt give in but the momentary pleasure is sublime, yet leaves me empty and feeling burned.
candelite10 6 years passed, so what happened??? What shenanigans have you gotten yourself in since?
Then marry him so your kids can hunt him down when he's old and weak.
Whatever happen to Fiona?
It's Fiona who happens to the rest of us.
WHERE IS THE SPRING ALBUM!!!!!!!!! IT'S ALMOST SUMMER!!!!
swinging wrongly
I would love to hear a Fiona Apple and Elliott Smith duet. That will never happen. Elliott is dead because we let him get carried away.
💔
I hear ya ladies, so complicated isn't it- been there too
That's really sad.
EVER//
