Profoundly beautiful. What a flawless performance! Such incredible vocal talent and the confluence with the orchestra is enthralling! These words resonate powerfully with the deepest things in life.
I am only (perhaps) aware of Kimbra's name in the periphery of my music street knowledge, But this showcase of her vocal performance has certainly captured my attention. Stunning.
As a musician who has been performing for over 40 years, it actually makes me upset😢that Kimbra is soooo underrated… As far as I’m concerned, she is one of the best female vocalist of this era. Her talent is undeniable..
I don’t get the impression that Kimbra cares about having the same level of recognition that the mainstream female vocalists have- and I think it shows precisely in her musical choices and trajectory. Dare I say, Kimbra’s appeal is rooted in how true to her artistic concepts she has been throughout her career; which are exactly what make her not mainstream
I wish a recording studio would capture an album of this version of Kimbra - just her live voice and some instrumentation. The outrageous talent we met with Plain Gold Ring at Sing Sing studios, still killing it today.
Man that E key in 'As You Are' has a direct line to my damaged heart. Underrated? She's rated exactly as she should be by those of us who know. And she's pretty famous... Perhaps as famous as she wants to be? To step into the next tier she'd have to make artistic sacrifices I don't think she or any of us would want.
I agree, but I'm also glad she'll pick them back up and keep using them. Half her work is in the use of technology. She uses it not as a crutch, but as an instrument. As another dimension in which she can be creative.
One more performance from Kimbra that cements her as my favorite female vocalist in my life. The passion and emotion in all of her work exist on another level for me.
I love Kimbra when she strips down the effects and let's her voice carry her music. Her vocals would be so intruiging in a jazz album! Maybe a collaboration with John Batiste?!
I WAS JUST THINKING THIS!!!!!!!! I feel like I can truly appreciate her artistry more now than ever, and listening to jazz is definitely a big reason.. I hope she does this!
Kimbra is punk in a way, really. And a thousand more amazing, superlative things mixed with that. Better to let your real real soul out to fly, grind, break & soar... than to ever let the 'machine' crush you in its deadening, limited box 🦋🙏✨️🦢
Kimbra is one of the most talented vocalists on the planet and I fear her legacy will be tied to “Somebody I used to know”. Brilliant song writer, brilliant performer and a voice that is simultaneously raw and elegant.
Let's hope not. That song didn't show even a fragment of her talent. Very under utilized and I understand why, no dig to Gotye but her voice could easily overwhelm him and outshine him in his own song. But it's not like it's a heavy singing song on his behalf so it's smart for her to meet him at his level but knowing the capacity of talent she has? That is what makes it disappointing for us as fans.
This is just SOOOOO GOOD. The writing and the way she expresses those feelings....it's golden to be able to transfer that to your listeners...take you to a place. Beautifully made
Goodnessssssssssssss why is this not overfllwing with comments. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is a literal Goddess in the human form.. that voice is unreal.
Thank you for this wonderful recording. Kimbra is a gem...what passion and what a beautiful voice. Pfff... A perfect performance with outstanding arrangements and musicians!
I think God just walked in the room and smiled at this beautifully gifted great singer musician and talent. Such great work Kimbra. Just so powerfully GOOD.Thaaaankyou. Beautiful and perfectly so.
Raw performance that reaches the highest level of vocal quality and capability that can not be duplicated by any electronic sound.... this sound come from within the body of love and ultimate creation.... IN MY OWN OPINION. she reaches in this innermost intimate place... we are so fortunate to bear witness to this magnificent experience of sound generated from self awareness of true soul.
I actually have tears in my eyes writing this. There aren't many words to describe the emotions you will feel with this song. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Magnifique chanteuse! Quelle voix ! Je ne comprends pas pourquoi elle a pas fait plus de tubes que « somebody »😢 Mais peut être est-ce un choix personnelle!😊
This is..... This is........ This... Is perfection........ My heart is flying..... And feeling alive....... Love so so so so much kimbra. I just discovered your music and I feel in love with you..... You are just perfection......
This girl is nothing but the truth, she cannot be denied. Kimbra, you are the peak of Everest and people will always try to get where you are, I've made it there already just hearing your sweet soothing hypnotic voice. Much Love to you sweetheart ♥️🌹
Violinos e violoncelos chorando na apresentação de As You Are!! Incrível, eu estou simplesmente em crise com essa apresentação. Chorando horrores e como a Kimbra é maravilhosa ❤❤❤❤
Io amo kimbra dal suo primo disco.... è una grande artista... è sempre emozionante ed ha una tecnica vocale fantastica...poi scrive musica con un suo stile che la rende unica...io la ritengo una delle piu interessanti personalità del mondo musicale del nuovo millennio.infine...e' di una bellezza stellare ❤️👍😎

@@peneleapai You s
This is beautiful and well done, but doesn't capture her amazing production skills. Certainly she has both.
Amen.
As a musician who has been performing for over 40 years, it actually makes me upset😢that Kimbra is soooo underrated… As far as I’m concerned, she is one of the best female vocalist of this era. Her talent is undeniable..
❤hope everybody knows about the magic of kimbra
Unfortunately in this world it’s not about how good you sing, it’s about how much money you bring.
Why be upset - be happy she’s not like everyone else - overrated.
Agree
I totally agree 💯!
She needs to be the headline song for the next James Bond. Excellent voice. ❤
Oh very good idea! YES!
@@iahelcathartesaura3887 This is a different level.
_"...stay for the person I'll be..."_
Might be one of the heaviest lyrics I've heard in a while.
Caught my ear, too....I kinda reflected on 58 years and 5 marriages for the next few minutes....profound.
Especially from a woman to a man, these days.
She’s severely underrated
Severely.
I don’t get the impression that Kimbra cares about having the same level of recognition that the mainstream female vocalists have- and I think it shows precisely in her musical choices and trajectory. Dare I say, Kimbra’s appeal is rooted in how true to her artistic concepts she has been throughout her career; which are exactly what make her not mainstream
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I wish a recording studio would capture an album of this version of Kimbra - just her live voice and some instrumentation. The outrageous talent we met with Plain Gold Ring at Sing Sing studios, still killing it today.
She’s on tour!
Agreed! We hope to be able to release this recording one day on Spotify, etc. Upvote this if you want to see it happen!
@@glasshauspresents make it happen, I love the album versions of these songs. But this is by far the best version of these songs.
I agree, she slays
That Sing Sing studio's cover is still amazing to this day! Amazing that you mentioned it as that's where I discovered her too.
Man that E key in 'As You Are' has a direct line to my damaged heart. Underrated? She's rated exactly as she should be by those of us who know. And she's pretty famous... Perhaps as famous as she wants to be? To step into the next tier she'd have to make artistic sacrifices I don't think she or any of us would want.
So true! You nailed it.
This comment made me understand why she is not as big as she should be. Thank you, I think she's right where she should be ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
2 good 2 be famous ;)
I don't understand this comment. What are these sacrifices that would elevate her to the next tier? Did Lourde do this?
💯
Glad to see Kimbra ditching the contemporary bells & whistles and just giving the world her extraordinary vocal gift, unadulterated.
I agree, but I'm also glad she'll pick them back up and keep using them. Half her work is in the use of technology. She uses it not as a crutch, but as an instrument. As another dimension in which she can be creative.
Also there's a good hunk of reverb and delay on her voice in this. Tastefully and beautifully done, but not absent
Her performance of “As you are” was unbelievable. It took my breath away
She's one of the most talented musicians of this generation. What a beautiful performance.
Sounds like a perfect James Bond intro song, in my opinion. Beautiful voice!
Been listening to her since I was 15 and she has such a true energy and a deep sadness to her as she’s growing older, she is so so important to me!
Kimbra, wow. Just wow.
One more performance from Kimbra that cements her as my favorite female vocalist in my life. The passion and emotion in all of her work exist on another level for me.
Just wondering, can you hear her New Zealand accent, as a kiwi myself it really stands out. I was just wondering if others notice it too.
@Joel Abraham definitely when she speaks, but less pronounced when she sings.
I just love when she performs, “As Yo Are” live. It’s one of my favourite Kimbra songs. Just incredible.
Soul-wrenching. Kimbra is one of the most underappreciated creative talents on this planet
I love Kimbra when she strips down the effects and let's her voice carry her music. Her vocals would be so intruiging in a jazz album! Maybe a collaboration with John Batiste?!
Love the insights in this!
I WAS JUST THINKING THIS!!!!!!!! I feel like I can truly appreciate her artistry more now than ever, and listening to jazz is definitely a big reason.. I hope she does this!
This needs to be a full album.
Kimbra is amazingly courageous....showing all her soul, with no apologies. Thank You!
Every single time I stumble upon some Kimbra live music it's always new and amazing, She is so good it's almost painful haha.
Damn, what a voice.
Kimbra is punk in a way, really. And a thousand more amazing, superlative things mixed with that.
Better to let your real real soul out to fly, grind, break & soar... than to ever let the 'machine' crush you in its deadening, limited box 🦋🙏✨️🦢
Damn she's a good singer !
How am I just seeing this?! Those people in the audience were BLESSED to have experienced this PURE ART. Thank you for capturing it so beautifully
SNL needs to have her as a guest! She is a masterpiece purest of artists in music!
I like it whats she doing with her arms- this show that she feel that music, that life - magnificiently !!!
She does that TeeRex thing with her hands. Feelin the music.
Beautiful. I was transported...
Kimbra is one of the greatest pop music composers, producers, and singers of our time.
She’s insanely talented and beautiful… What an amazing woman!! 🥹👌🏻🤩
This is not just talent, this is years of conditioning of one's voice to a magical Hemisphere of The vocal universe
Kimbra is one of the most talented vocalists on the planet and I fear her legacy will be tied to “Somebody I used to know”. Brilliant song writer, brilliant performer and a voice that is simultaneously raw and elegant.
Aughh so *THAT* is where i am acquainted with her name. THANK YOU.
no fear; this speaks volumes of lifetimes !
@@peneleapai 🐢AUGHHH

That's such a potent and delightful voice putting meaning to words. Incredible.
Fact is we only have our experience to rely on. I hope to someday get the opportunity to hear her voice live.
This is just SOOOOO GOOD. The writing and the way she expresses those feelings....it's golden to be able to transfer that to your listeners...take you to a place. Beautifully made
Goodnessssssssssssss why is this not overfllwing with comments. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is a literal Goddess in the human form.. that voice is unreal.
Thank you for this wonderful recording.
Kimbra is a gem...what passion and what a beautiful voice. Pfff...
A perfect performance with outstanding arrangements and musicians!
It’s our pleasure to share it! I hope you enjoy the rest of the 3 videos from this performance, as well as the new video with Bilal!
I think God just walked in the room and smiled at this beautifully gifted great singer musician and talent. Such great work Kimbra. Just so powerfully GOOD.Thaaaankyou. Beautiful and perfectly so.
Such a refreshing take on the songs.
Sometimes her songs get a little muddied by the production so it's nice to hear her sing like that.
This almost made me cry❤
This is big ❤
Kimbra's voice AND talent are the must underrated in all the world. Thanks "GlassHouse" for this beautiful concert.
Kimbra's voice is up there with the greats. Why is she not bigger in the US?
Raw performance that reaches the highest level of vocal quality and capability that can not be duplicated by any electronic sound.... this sound come from within the body of love and ultimate creation.... IN MY OWN OPINION. she reaches in this innermost intimate place... we are so fortunate to bear witness to this magnificent experience of sound generated from self awareness of true soul.
I’M LITERALLY CRYING
I actually have tears in my eyes writing this. There aren't many words to describe the emotions you will feel with this song. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Oh man, what I would give to get to see Kimbra live
Top tier artistic performance by Kimbra! Kudos for the musicians, too.
Version Of Me is so tragic yet stunning
Amazing she is one of the best female artists and so underrated
Thank you Kimbra
She's an angel, and we are truly blessed to hear her voice. Love you Kimbra. ❤
This girl is the best of the best, Love you babygirl ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I NEED THIS ON SPOTIFY.
LIKE RIGHT NOW!!
Upvote to make it happen!
Is there a better singer ? And I like a lot of singers! To me she's the best❤
I didn't think that was her until I saw her hands when she sang! :) Sounds great as always! A very underappreciated and talented artist.
Totally expressive, and fearless! Kimbra has found what we're listening for! Thank You dear lady! I feel as fearless as your songs!
Right Direction sounds amazing in this form. It was already my favorite Kimbra song.
Magnifique chanteuse! Quelle voix ! Je ne comprends pas pourquoi elle a pas fait plus de tubes que « somebody »😢 Mais peut être est-ce un choix personnelle!😊
This is so fitting for the time we are living, the whole ambiance.
I appreciate your talent and stories Kimbra
Beautiful love it what a performance 🙌🔥🧡🌈⭐️💃🎶
Kimbra cuts right to the core of me, this is awesome music and singing what technique and feeling.
Hoooooooooly. Kimbra on absolute fire here. What an insanely beautiful performance.
I much prefer her live VS recorded. Took my then 5 year old daughter to see her live. She loved it.

Kimbra is a GODDESS 😘 😘 😘 😘..... This is a masterpiece 😘 😘 😘 😘.... She is so huge like the milky-way 🌌

Kimbra's voice reminds me of one of my favorite singers, Beth Gibbons of Portishead. I love love love this music and her voice. So enchanting.
