I wish I could relisten to this album for the first time again. I thankfully only heard Kyoto before I listened all the way through in order, the sheer bittersweet release of the end of this song had me sobbing after all of the somber restraint before it.
The Who wore skeleton suits in 1969-70. Between the suits and the guitar smashing, I’m guessing it was a nod. And I absolutely loved every second of it.
people were so upset that this song wasn't *angry* enough to warrant a guitar smash, not realizing that it's not supposed to be *angry* but *cathartic*
I love the whole thing, her smile throughout, the shred, the scream, and yes, the preplanned smash. The end is here, why the fuck not? Smile into oblivion.
I live in a house where expressing anger is seen as inappropriate. I’m always being watched, always monitored, always judged. Every lyric, I relate to. I like to listen to this song and imagine the screams at the end are my own, out of frustration. It’s very cathartic. Thank you for your song.
can relate to this so much, even expressing your feelings and emotions, sharing your thoughts and dreams, it's all seem as a weakness or a waste of time :(
I refuse to believe that SNL having phoebe bridgers on the same show as dan levy isn't VERY deliberate-- they knew exactly the audience they were aiming for
I watched this thinking “maybe this isn’t the best song to do live” because (tho I absolutely LOVE it) it’s weird (it’s long, the scream, the breathing at the end) but then she started SHREDDING it on the guitar, did the scream and wrecked the guitar. I fucking loved it 😂
@@Gunn27 it’s in an open tuning, something she utilizes often and very well. also, music doesn’t have to be complex to be good, and even if she’s “just strumming”, she’s delivering an emotive performance backed by a full and competent band with classy instrumentation that fits her vision of what her music should be *edit : spelling mistake LOL

This song holds such a unique place in my heart. I’ve had to grapple with accepting that I have trauma. I used to go on drives to think and get away from my family, and on one of those drives this song came on as I turned around to go back home. I broke down sobbing and screamed along with her in the anxiety and frustration of going back home to the ones who gave me that trauma. It was therapeutic in a way. Thank you Phoebe.
When I saw this live for the first time I instantly thought of Kurt Cobain, and I just thought how fucking epic it was. I had never heard of this artist till then and I was instantly intrigued. It's refreshing to see the operatic songwriting and arrangements coming back into mainstream youth music. Where a song arrangement goes off the rails at times but in a good way. Reminds me of Court of The crimson King..and many other British bands that did this.. an eclectic tapestry of instrumentation.. well done 👏. You have yet another new fan.

lmfao it was a tribute to an Elliot Smith performance and even if it wasn't can you please tell me whats that supposed statement that people made back then that Phoebe can't do now???'
That symbolism at the end where Mrs Phoebe on her knees adorned in the gilded age attire rocking out! Head banging like a champ! back and forth servicing her fellow lead guitarist letting him take the spotlight. It was savage

The only reason to be mad about someone smashing a guitar is if it's unearned. There is no way to smash a guitar improperly if it is earned and genuine.

@@blistabliss I was not talking about the genre of music she plays. I'm talking about her high level of agency. She does what she wants. That's badass.
i remember sitting in a stoop with odessa and andrew on 5th street, back home next to the russian othodox book store, playing guitar and violin for 2 weed growing drifters late at night on a friday. they kept saying, "she is too good. we have to go, she is too good" now she is playing on snl. life is a really weird thing but god damn does it make me happy.
I'm 108 years old and my 1 year old grand daughter sent me this song on my iPhone 90 and boy let me tell you this took me back to my early 20s when rock music was alive and well. This is def music and they don't make like they use to back in da day.

This song is probably so much better when you listen to the entire album before it. So powerful.
Especially because the album opener, DVD Menu, is a short instrumental that echoes this song. So from the very beginning you “know the end”. So good.
Definitely! This was definitely my favorite song on the album, but I think it was largely thanks to the build-up.
It just works so well as a closer

Wow! Couldn't take my eyes off of her.❤
Smashing!
i remember sitting in a stoop with odessa and andrew on 5th street, back home next to the russian othodox book store, playing guitar and violin for 2 weed growing drifters late at night on a friday. they kept saying, "she is too good. we have to go, she is too good"
now she is playing on snl. life is a really weird thing but god damn does it make me happy.
Perfect last song on the album and legendary performance! My high expectations were not let down!
The outro... why am i teary..
literally my favourite snl performance
Phoebe can do whatever she wants she’s one of the most talented acts in the last 25 years
YES ITS FINALLY UPLOADED
my fav song omg
watching middle aged men get mad about this just proves what a goddess she is......there's nothing men fear more than strong women
Lol xD
men did the guitar smash a thousands times and a thousand times better.
I'd rather see Tash Sultana, somebody with real talent
If she's so strong, why did she fail to smash the guitar?

I'm 108 years old and my 1 year old grand daughter sent me this song on my iPhone 90 and boy let me tell you this took me back to my early 20s when rock music was alive and well. This is def music and they don't make like they use to back in da day.
