Remember when live performances were live? and had some soul? feeling? emotion? One good thing about modern media I suppose is we can still watch Patti. Fukn awesome.
She really is Punk Rock, like everything about her. She is a real artist,, poet, writer,, musician, influencer OG, and truly an icon of our time. CBGBs!
Patti Smith: Way back then, until this- simply AWESOME, AMAZING, this lady then/later just ROCKS! Terrifically written song, delivered then/later POWERFULLY, does IT get any better then this? AND to have the superb Sarah McLachlan doing the sublime piano intro, then later instrumental harmony. So GLAD I've lived in the BEST MUSIC times EVER!!
My friend and I went to her outdoor concert in philly many years ago. My father picked us up afterwards. As he waited Patti Smith lite up a stoogie during a photo op and offered it to my father. He almost fainted. A memory that will never fade.
I always got a shiver up my spine when I hear that haunting piano introduction, knowing what’s going to come next when she starts singing. Love this song.
@@patrickoshnock6925 The soul is a metaphor for the personality of a consciousness. Electricity is just a name mankind gave to a force of which we have no idea where it comes for or why it even exists. People can agree or disagree on the meaning of a word and that too changes over time as society changes. So, yes the soul is an old word that has religious baggage. Today we use the word "consciousness" because it more scientific. However, both essentially mean the "essence" of a person and both cannot be proven even exist. Which metaphor people prefer is another discussion altogether and one I would not waste my time going in to as it would divert from the main point I was making and would not had anything constructive to it either.
@@patrickoshnock6925 I believe she is which is interesting in that she has more humanity, is more enlightened and has contributed more to this world than anyone I’ve ever met who believes in an organised religion.
@@patrickoshnock6925 Well you might believe my opinion means nothing (not very Christian of you is it) but although I think you are wrong in that Patti Smith (you do know she was invited and sang at the Vatican in 2014?) will be forgotten in 100 years you are right that the Catholic Church will be remembered in 500 years as that organisation in the 20th Century (and still today) that condones and supports the sexual abuse and mental destruction of children all over the world by hundreds of Catholic Priests. As Mahatma Gandhi once said when asked about his opinion on western religion, “I like your Christ but I don’t like your Christians”. May you go in peace with whatever god your parents chose for you.
@@patrickoshnock6925 Maybe we should use the correct terminology here in that these children were raped plain and simple. I’m not gay but find it incredibly offensive that you lay the blame/cause of your priests behaviour on them all being gay (although we both know shame, repression and control is the foundation of your religion) - weren’t many of the young victims girls? Getting back to the point of the OP, It’s clear that your definition of having a soul is very different to the 95% of the 7 billion people on this planet who see things differently. As you can tell I’m not a huge supporter of the Catholic Church but I find no desire to search out RUclips content on your religion and criticise it to those believers (I respect everyone’s opinion and beliefs) so find it bizarre that you want to seek out a Patti Smith video and negatively comment on the belief of the OP who was incredibly polite and respectful to you (RED Knight). I’ll end by saying Patti Smith is seen as a decent and kind soul by millions of people around the world (including your pope and the Dalai Lama) and long may she continue to provide happiness and joy through her music and poetry. Good day and goodbye.
This is one of the world's most beautiful women, one of literature's most honest and intriguing voices, one of the most exciting performers on the stage... yes, you could say I've got a vibe for Patti, and it goes back to her first show in Detroit, at the Masonic Temple. Her band was preceded by Fred Sonic Smith's band Sonic's Rendezvous, which I had followed at Second Chance, a bar in Ann Arbor, and before then, when I was in my teens, I saw him many times with the legendary and genuinely revolutionary MC5. I've seen Patti many times and it's never anything less than a spiritual experience. And her book, "Just Kids," shows she doesn't need a band or a stage to be at her best.
It's a good song but we live in a fortunate age and place where there are thousands of gems of songs which I'd consider to be 'perfect' as well, such as 'Heaven'-Bryan Adams, 'Father Figure'-George Michael, Alone-Heart, and I could go on and on. Let's just be grateful we celebrate music in our culture since there are evil nations and religions out there which ban music and punish those who listen to it or create it. Our civilization must be preserved and passed on.
I know Patti's recording from the Easter album describes my memory of 21 years old and overwhelmed by sexuality and emotions I had no idea how to manage better than any other piece of music ever.
@@obrheadcyclinggnome Correct me if I’m wrong but some sources say he wrote it first with a very different story. She took it and changed the story, he loved the change so much he gave her writing credits. Listen to his version and it is a very different song. It’s a great example of creativity and Springsteen at his human best.
@@obrheadcyclinggnome patti wrote the 2nd verse. springsteen sent her a near finished demo and agreed patti`s rewrite improved the song. it`s 80-20 bruce , not 50-50.
Oh, my good gracious. Yes, she is very talented and I sense that she is a wonderful person. BUT she is one of the most beautiful women in THE WORLD.........
Much more powerful version than the record. So glad to have been born in a time when this was what music was all about. Powerful and under rated artist. Well done!
Also on RUclips is a version Patti did for the New Yorker radio hour. There is one person playing either piano or acoustic guitar, it’s almost all just her voice. Completely different and just as amazing.
A great singer of classic song. It is timeless. People will listen to this in 50 years time and they will be transported by the force of Patti's voice and delivery. Christ, it is 40 years old already.
This woman is a pioneer of folk, punk, rock and modern music.Her career has spanned decades and her songs and poetry can never be duplicated but she is often copied and covered by muscians who understand her love for artistry.

Some people are just cool at a DNA level. Patti Smith is one of them.
She’ll always be relevant
A truly timeless talented and beautiful soul for the ages.
This is direct proof that style, grace, and presence does not come in a bottle of makeup. Patti Smith is a living legend.
Hell yes!
Just brilliant
More relevant now than when you commented.
Hell YEAH! She's right in!
No lipsing...true talent 🤙💙
@@sylvainletourneau4307 shut up about the lip synch already!!
Patti smith est une référence dans l'univers de la musique...je suis fan depuis si longtemps. Jean-Baptiste
Who’s here in 2023? This performance gives me chills ❤
One hour to 2024 in Germany. Happy New Year!
That was from 17 years ago.
Me . Always go back to brilliant rock stars.

16 years later and I still get goose bumps every time I hear this.
yep its good.
J’ai toujours la cher de poule à chaque fois que je l’écoute

Hey Min I can get your money done and I’ll send you a check in about a half an inch or more I will
Diamonds are forever xxx
STILL TIMELESS AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
Patti Smith knocked that out of the park!
Mi fa venire i brividi ogni volta che l'ascolto a distanza di tanti anni
Class act
All natural in looks, vocal ability, passion is Wesome
Meant to say Awesome
This is the first time that I have seen Pattie live and I am 66, thank you utube.🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲☮️☮️☮️🏴🏴🏴🏴🎸🎸😀😀👍👍
She gives me chills every time I hear this. She is a major talent.
That whole Album "Easter" I believe is her best!
Check out First Aid Kit performing for her.
She strikes me as very shy
she got lucky on this one song
a "one hit wonder" only because of Bruce's song
Patti must have performed this song a million times, but she NEVER mails it in. What an artist!
Honestly I've never heard her mail anything in.
It takes a tremendous amount of breath and control to sing this powerful song in its entirety....I know because I have sung it before.
That!
2024 and listening
There, ladies and gentleman, is 100% class on a stage!
I always got a shiver up my spine when I hear that haunting piano introduction, knowing what’s going to come next when she starts singing. Love this song.
If you enjoy this, please watch the 1978 version. 😊
Omg me too! I can’t explain the feeling so intense ! Love it
Do you have a link?@@dennispicone6801
Her voice has lost none of it's power. magnificent.
your so right. this was also my first thought
Qqqqqqqaqqqaaqaqaqqq
Qa
she is soo great
Sarah is a class act and I love how she gives Patti Smith her deserved spot light! Women supporting Women!!
magnificent
What a beautiful, remarkable, astonishing woman. Voice, untamed.... perfection.
My God, that is the most soulful performance I've ever seen of Patti. Not the queen of punk the last queen of Rock n Roll.
Yes she kicks ass man ✌️🤘🤘🤘
That performance came from deep down in the soul, and what a powerful soul she is.

This is about mutual respect and brilliance ❤
the best of our time of passion in song!!
When I listen to this song I can feel the heavy influence of Patti Smith in PJ Harvey ❤️
She's a real rock beast!!!
I was on her concert in Bologna 42 years ago, and now she's BETTER!
Excellent.
Only saw her once live (3000 in the theater) Same place I saw Springsteen a few times.Good days indeed!
Proof positive that talent is timeless. Patti is a legend still and always will be.
Magnificent voice. So powerful.
A reason why i love music
Music is nothing if you don’t have passion in your heart.
Patti god bless you! Where are all the souls gone?

Such a raw, beautiful song performed from the soul.
She was vocally great here
Brilliant song and Sarah McLachlan is no slouch either. Surfacing is a great album.
One of y eryfa ourite albums
The drums, the piano, the vocals…
Touch me now
❤ ❤
Well,
it's a 💯 masterpiece, there's no other word...! 🦋🌺
She was vocally great here
and she is one of the most beautiful women in the world. not many souls have this depth!
just epic
Oh, my good gracious. Yes, she is very talented and I sense that she is a wonderful person. BUT she is one of the most beautiful women in THE WORLD.........
Никто сейчас не ценит настоящих исполнттелей
@@mrsmacca126 she is. are you an authority on what i find beautiful? what a small person
J'avoue
LOVE. LOVE LOVE HER!💖
as Bruce Springsteen said .. the song is hers now ..
Songs don't get any better than this.
Love this song very much
❤❤❤Wundervoll
Very interesting musical combination, I must say ...
Only the writer of these lyrics could put in the passion... I LOVE THIS
Wow!!!! such passion!
Wow her voice brings tears to me ❤❤❤
Holy crap. I had no idea she was that old until seeing this. What a badass.
Much more powerful version than the record. So glad to have been born in a time when this was what music was all about. Powerful and under rated artist. Well done!
Absolutely one of music lovers classic 💕
Absolutely brilliant.
Patti is a beautiful shining legend.❤
That song is timeless and fabulous. She is quite a piece of work herself! Glad to know she's still around - doing well.
Fantastic. What a perfect performance.
I saw her at Carnegie Hall sing in a benefit just before the pandemic started. 73 years old and she blew the roof off the place.
Patti is a goddess. I love that voice!
I think it's badass that Sarah doesn't provide vocals. That's truly setting aside one's ego. Excellent version.
I agree. But I think that Sarah knew she could not touch Patti's Feeling to this song. NO one can sing this song like Patti...
Dave Waslo
It's got to be straight from her life.
