There is such complexity, determination and bravery in this woman. It is performed so impeccably that it’s easy to mistake it as simple. Nothing simple about it except the simple joy of being able to relax and let go, trusting that she will deliver us beautifully broken, whole and home.
Pretty jazzed to be able to say "I was at this show". I WAS AT THIS SHOW! This was a tour like no other. Absolutely magical, but not a single XXL shirt to be had.
I have a blood disease and was always so ill a few years ago but this song always made me smile and cry , but now coming back to this while in a better state gives me goosebumps 🤧 this song will always be dear to me 🤍 .
@@xo.d_munii great guess 🙂 , yes its sickle cell and thanks I appreciate that . Also I wish the very best for your family members cus it's not a easy battle 🤎 .
i like watching joanna perform live because it's fun watching her hands play! i usually like watching people's hands whenever they play any instrument but especially with joanna's earlier music because she has a lot of polyrhythms in there. i envy people like her who've just mastered it to that level, but it's still super cool to see.
We speak in the store, I'm a sensitive bore You seem markedly more and I'm oozing surprise But it's late in the day and you're well on your way What was golden went gray and I'm suddenly shy And the gathering floozies afford to be choosy And all sneezing darkly in the dimming divide And I have read the right book to interpret your look You were knocking me down with the palm of your eye This is unlike the story, it was written to be I was riding its back when it used to ride me And we were galloping manic to the mouth of the source We were swallowing panic in the face of its force And I am blue I am blue and unwell Made me bolt like a horse Now it's done Watch it go You've changed some Water runs from the snow And am I so dear? Do I run rare? You've changed some Peach, plum, pear Peach, plum
“i have read the WRONG books” “i WAS blue”. i heard this song when i was about 8 years old and it stuck with me. i rediscovered this song today at 19 years old and i’m so happy. i’ve been listening to it all day and i’ve noticed that she’s changed some of the lyrics which is so interesting. very few artists do that. edit: okay she’s definitely saying right, idk why i was hearing wrong
In the studio version she says "I AM blue" Many of the live recordings I've heard she says "I WAS blue" I think this a beautiful glance at how emotionally connected she is to her art
It did- I deleted and re-uploaded all my Joanna live videos. The original uploads were only 720p, though the source files were 1080p. So better quality now!

Glad to hear you're doing a bit better. Long may it continue. Music saves us, doesn't it? Sending you hugs 🫂 🤗 ❤️
I’m guessing it’s sickle cell? A lot of my family has it and it’s really difficult but I hope you’re doing okay

That last chord… but also… everything. ❤️
She is adorably enchanting
My favorite performance of this song.
i cant take my eyes off the peach plum pear hand movements

I used to play this for my baby nephew . It calmed him when he was fussy . ❤
JN was the first concert I brought my daughter to (though back a decade ago - still wonderful tho)
Cried like the first time I heard it 😭
i love this dress
Saw her in 2010, at Carnegie Hall. She was utterly incredible. She played this song on harpsichord though, so impressive. Love her.
she's the best 🩷
This is very much “running through the forest like a field mouse” music I love it
Very specific vibe
Stellar performance, she is irreplaceable
Everything about this is pure gold ⭐️
I love the weird production choices in the studio version, but hearing it live and stripped down is cool in its own way.
Yeah Joanna's music is beautiful
This version is infinitely better than the studio version
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
@Ru Milbourn that’s the point of it, you ain’t get it
All of the live versions are so wonderful
you take that back lol
im quite a new fan of Joanna Newsom, this was absolutely magical. thanks for uploading!
I absolutely love this dress I need it
This was beautiful, gave me the chills
We speak in the store, I'm a sensitive bore
You seem markedly more and I'm oozing surprise
But it's late in the day and you're well on your way
What was golden went gray and I'm suddenly shy
And the gathering floozies afford to be choosy
And all sneezing darkly in the dimming divide
And I have read the right book to interpret your look
You were knocking me down with the palm of your eye
This is unlike the story, it was written to be
I was riding its back when it used to ride me
And we were galloping manic to the mouth of the source
We were swallowing panic in the face of its force
And I am blue
I am blue and unwell
Made me bolt like a horse
Now it's done
Watch it go
You've changed some
Water runs from the snow
And am I so dear?
Do I run rare?
You've changed some
Peach, plum, pear
Peach, plum
Fantastic song.

edit: okay she’s definitely saying right, idk why i was hearing wrong
actually i can’t tell if she’s saying right or wrong but my point still stands, i am utterly obsessed with this song
You’re correct
Wtf me too
In the studio version she says
"I AM blue"
Many of the live recordings I've heard she says
"I WAS blue"
I think this a beautiful glance at how emotionally connected she is to her art
I swear this had more views and comments. Thank you nonetheless

@@mattadactyl thanks for reuploading these, and she looks quite a lot like Emilia Clarke, doesn't she?
A world treasure.
her
Thx. Magical
Queen.
Aww, so that is what pear sounds like after singing peach, plum
Reminds me of my lst relationship and how it went nowhere i wasted 5yrs of my life on a person it will never happen again
When her right hand goes off on its little thing at 3:58... BIG HEART EYES!
WOW, this is great ❤❤
Super duper groovy yeah alright 💃
G. O. L. D.
Just the ex, but idk
she plays harp like guitar
that’s how you play harp
strumming would be more guitarish
reminds me of Kate Bush
