@@hellfeather2011 My bf & I have been together 5 years and we still don't say I love you. It's more fun to show it. It's also been a running joke between us that we never say it.
For years I wondered why the title was "I Know" rather than "I'll Know." One day I realized that the title was the implied (but brilliantly unsung) last line. Fiona Apple makes sonic wet dreams for English majors.
Most musicians and singers distance themselves emotionally from their material for the purpose of performance. Fiona Apple is one of the few who doesn't. I don't know how she manages it, and it must be exhausting, but I for one am thankful for the honesty of her delivery, every time. End up in damn tears every time though. Needed it though. Thanks.
This is one of those things your write when you're 15. Then 15 years later you can't help but cringe as you reread the comment you thought was so damned poignant.
Or... drunk and maudlin at 3am when you're 35, and you forgot you wrote it till someone wrote a snarky reply. Unlike most drunken posts though, I like this one and stand by it.
@@purrr7159 She said "don't need to say it" as in "don't need to say I love you". - But if it gets too late for me to wait for you to find you love me and tell me so... It's okay... don't need to say it. There's not a line she didn't say. But that is for sure my favorite part of the song!
In '96 when Tidal came out along with the story how it all came about I was blown away. I thought to myself "This girl is a prodigy." As a musician myself I genuinely appreciated the artistry she wove in her songs and the poetry of her lyrics. On top of maintaining musical integrity she wrote songs that were catchy and appealed to the heart and common man or woman. I wasn't sure it Tidal was a one off or not, and was concerned that the industry would likely ruin her anyway, but when "When the Pawn..." came out and I was blown away I realized that "Tidal" wasn't a one-off and she was a rock that wasn't budging when it came to writing garbage products the industry wants you to write and what she wanted to write. Then as the other albums came out and she progressed and evolved musically and wrote with the same integrity and honesty I realized that we have a musical genius on our hands and how blessed we are to have someone like her in a day and age when most musicians can't read music (hip-hop and pop come to mind), buy a song from an unknown songwriter or sample music that isn't their own because they can't actually write, and throw in some dancing and a video and voila: you have a "musician." Fiona is up there in terms of musical genius with the Mozarts, Beethovens, Hendrixes, Led Zepplins, Pink Floyds, Ella Fitzgeralds, Etta James, Beatles, etc. It shocks me when I talk to my friends about her and they aren't familiar with much.
When the crowd becomes your burden and you nearly close your curtain, I ll wait by the backstage door... Ohh I love this song so much, never get tired of it. Thanks dear Fiona
I'm just going to say it. This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. From the lyrics (poetry) to the song writing to the vocals. If you love this song do yourself a favour and look up Elvis Costello singing it (this song) in front of Fiona. He said the song struck him. Quentin Tarantino is enamored with her. Dave Navarro wrote her name in his own blood on her dressing room wall. She doesn't get the mainstream recognition she deserves but she's the type of talent that other talent looks up to.
Speechless!!!...this song is truly one of my all time favorites, but this version. .. is incredible. The feeling she puts to those piano notes, heaven does exist!
For people who say music of different era was better, I can only say that music today still has quality if you know where to look. It is unfortunate that Fiona does not get the commercial success she deserves. This song is one of her best, and she's got a lot of other amazing music as well.
I saw someone say "this is feeling" and it got me thinking about the similarities between Fiona and Jeff Buckley. Fiona channels this powerful emotion in her music and it's absolutely breathtaking. Similarly, Jeff Buckley channels spirituality. It's the same effect of feeling, same effect of songwriting, great vocals and I will never grow bored of either of them.
I think not. I feel like Fiona's songs are so much an expression of her unique, radiant soul that no other singer could ever come close to her performances.
Miss Apple is a true poet. I find myself coming back to this video often. Her voice is so beautifully strident. We dont deserve Fiona at all, she is truly the best.
I picked up "When the Pawn..." when it came out, and replayed it endlessly. But I just stumbled on this video for the first time. Mind... Blown... Holy Hell that is an intense and amazing performance, I can't think of anything that comes close. It's hard to believe such raw beauty exists in the same world where the charts are dominated by plastic pop princesses.
Me too, Amanda. Excellent comments on your part! Here in June 2019, I hope this is "still one of the most beautiful things [you} have seen/heard in your life
My God, she is Jeff Buckley absolute! You can hear the pain and heartache in every one of her performances. Sad the we don't have Jeff, but how glorious that we're blessed with this fantastic woman!! God Bless her.
Jason Ziemba so damn true. Imagine if they both did a song together. Both unbelievable 1990s legendary singers. I honestly wish they both did a song together.
+Nicola Carpenter she's been around for a while, she just hasn't been as active. A lot of my generation's artists (90s) are dwindling away but their music is as powerful as ever. Check out "Mazzy Star"
I just can't... her voice makes me dissociate in a good way, most of the time i do it for my high anxiety but when i listen to this i do it because i feel my soul is leaving my body for listening such a masterpiece
It doesn't take much to make a masterful performance... just a mic, one of the most perfect lyrics ever written, a voice that can emote more than all the best picture winners from the last decade and a black and white effect.
one of her tops. she knows how to capture the mood. puts herself in the moment. this has different feel to other performances of this song. too much talent.
This song is the reason I started piano lessons, and one of the first accompaniments I learned. I still play it on my bad days. Thank you for everything Fiona
I met her when I was 19, twenty years ago. She had a role in saving my life, in my opinion she has the same "it" thing that only a few others have/ dare I say dylanesq shes truly an artist and I'm so grateful that god gave me the ability to appreciate such beauty
dyla zimm I know exactly what you mean. It isn't easy having Fiona Apple as your favorite artist, as we only get albums once per decade or so with a song here or there... But what is released is so spectacular and special that it's enough to tide us over. Besides I'd rather have 1 of her masterpieces every 7 or 8 years than a half assed record that has been violated by the label every year. I listen to something of hers every single day. I feel that those of us who have the privilege of "getting" her words and phrases and allowing them to move us in a way that only true Fiona super fans know is a gift that I wouldn't give up for anything.
I was about 18 when this album came out. I will never be able to thank Fiona enough for putting into poetry the painful unrequited love I never could ever hope to express.
I have listened to her in the past and I always liked her voice! I have to say now hearing her voice that it's the most beautiful voice I have ever heard! Thank you Fiona! You are certainly a treyin my mind! You have helped me through losing my fiance, she died from diabetes and I was lost for a while but you helped me through, thank you! You are a treasure! 😊
I know Fiona still performs occasionally at Largo., and pretty well nowhere else. The people who are able to get to that venue easily are the luckiest on the planet.
There are rare occasions when words simply will never do art any justice. This is one of those occasions. Utterly intoxicating, passionate and intense.
Listen and watch as my love Fiona puts her soul into every syllable. The breathy, smoky snarls. The trembling tremolos. The guttural growls. Oh my heart.
This was my favorite song of of When the Pawn…and it remains one of my favorites of all time. Thus is the first I’ve ever seen of this performance…chills all over again.
4:18 'I won, you Asshole', her face shows she perseveres. She got so passionate during the whole song, but especially the end, you can see the inspiration. But Fiona stands and we stand with her. Saw her at the Royale in Boston. Amazing!

So be it, I'm your crowbar
If that's what I am so far
Until you get out of this mess
And I will pretend
That I don't know of your sins
Until you are ready to confess
But all the time, all the time
I'll know, I'll know
And you can use my skin
To bury secrets in
And I will settle you down
And at my own suggestion
I will ask no questions
While I do my thing in the background
But all the time, all the time
I'll know, I'll know
Baby
I can't help you out
While she is still around
So for the time being, I'm being patient
And amidst this bitterness
If you'll just consider this
Even if it don't make sense all the time
Give it time
And when the crowd becomes your burden
And you've early closed your curtain
I'll wait by the backstage door
While you try to find
The lines to speak your mind
And pry it open, hoping for an encore
And if it gets too late, for me to wait
For you to find you love me, and tell me so
It's okay, don't need to say it.

this is one of the best songs ever written
Everytime I listen to it, I notice something new. It's incredible
Gives me the chills every time I hear it. I used to play it on repeat as a teenager.
YAASSSSS
Amen!
so true
I was expecting her to say “I’ll Know” at the very end, but she didn’t, which explains a lot. Genius
It was always meant for you to say it in your head. It's like that on the album as well.
That’s the best part. Kills me
@@alainyong5737 and it's the last track on the album! She leaves you with it!
this is such a clever clever twist and I never realized until watching the video now. blown away

There's more drama in this 5min video than in 99% of movies made today. An unparalleled talent.

End up in damn tears every time though.
Needed it though. Thanks.
Couldn’t have said it better
This is not sound. This is feeling.
I know this is about a messy love triangle or what have you but it works so so well as a song about loving someone with an addiction
Interesting interpretation
The poet of my heartbreak. She makes me a masochist.

Best concert i ever went to
One of the most beautifully painful songs ever written. Pure genius. Been in love with fiona for over 25 years. She'll always be my favorite.
One of her best lines is the one she didn’t say.
and the way she tells us where to bury her secrets... her voice in her lyrics is truly unique
Which line is that?

1000% Yes to this comment
I didn’t “ discover” her and appreciate her fully until this year and quite frankly that sickens me 🙁
Preach! ❤
When the crowd becomes your burden and you nearly close your curtain, I ll wait by the backstage door...
Ohh I love this song so much, never get tired of it. Thanks dear Fiona
How are people who are so brilliant so overlooked?
She's ok, she's sold several million albums... people are affected all over.

In another era, this would've been a smash hit for a Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Aretha Franklin etc. Has that classic quality.
Kelly Clarkson ...???
I think not. I feel like Fiona's songs are so much an expression of her unique, radiant soul that no other singer could ever come close to her performances.
I held my breath for what seemed like the whole song. Moments pass so quickly when you’re having a great time. Absolute mastery of her craft
She captures you with her subtle tones then pulls you in with how her words move you. I think this is one of her best.
Every word she sings is loaded with emotion... An amazing artist
the emotive and smooth capabilities in fiona' s voice are heavy.
I don’t think I blinked or took a breath until it was over. Utterly mesmerizing.
Honestly, this is the greatest live performance ever captured on film.
One of the most beautifully underrated songs of all time. So simple and just haunting.
I’m a grown man, and I would have 100% cried at that show. She is so raw it reminds me how to feel
I lived this, in dramatic fashion, 20 years ago. And I'm still not over it.
Miss Apple is a true poet. I find myself coming back to this video often. Her voice is so beautifully strident. We dont deserve Fiona at all, she is truly the best.
I love that part in 4:01 where the piano meets the line “for you to find you love me” in such a magical melody
I watch this like everyday
Perfect song. Start to finish. Absolutely flawless.
i always come back to this video one of my fav ever live performances
This performance is one of the most beautiful things on this Earth!
encapsulates how i feel
I like how her and Florence don’t rely on a beat or tempo. Respect
I love her, really I do.
Fiona is living through all of the emotions and reflections of this song and her performance transmutes into a living poem.
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen/heard in my life
I am sobbing. what a truly unparalleled gift she has
Every song she writes feels like every word she uses is chosen with the ultimate of deliberateness. Beautiful.
I picked up "When the Pawn..." when it came out, and replayed it endlessly. But I just stumbled on this video for the first time. Mind... Blown... Holy Hell that is an intense and amazing performance, I can't think of anything that comes close.

Im high as funk crying like a baby
🎼And you can use my skin, to bury secrets in...
And I will settle you down🎶

Doubt she has the vocal versatility that Buckley had. I am a big fan of both!

Absolutely breathtaking artist. One of very few artists that gives me chills everytime I listen.
When I listen to Fiona Apple, my heart aches for her, and then it aches for me and for the rest of mankind...
There are rare occasions when words simply will never do art any justice. This is one of those occasions. Utterly intoxicating, passionate and intense.
Her voice is... oh man, there's no adjectives!
I just cannot take my eyes off of her. I feel the pain. How does she do it? That's pure talent.
Never have I been able to find any other artist whose raw passion just pours out of them like with Fiona
Nina Simone?
Some Tori, some Aimee Mann…
That smile at the end is just perfect.
Great artist. Great song. Great performance. There should be 380 million views instead of 380k. Sublime.
Wow...just wow! She's amazing
My god! This song is a top 5 song for me. Thank you Fiona for this work of art.
I've seen quite a few live versions of I know, and this is definitely the best one
Listen and watch as my love Fiona puts her soul into every syllable. The breathy, smoky snarls. The trembling tremolos. The guttural growls. Oh my heart.
one of the best songs one of the most beautiful voices
It's like she's swallowing the bitterness of the experience after she says baby.

Fabulous! I need a drink.
Folks who have never heard of Fiona Apple continue to surprise me, but I am glad said folks are hip to who she is now - - a goddam icon!
