No skanky outfit, no makeup, no backup dancers, no autotune, no multi million dollar video, no remastering, none of the ever present crap that people need so desperately to try to be good performers. This woman has more skill and talent in her little finger than all of the popular "artists " that are worshipped today. Tori is absolutely amazing 👏
WOW....ok....I admit, I've never even heard of Tori Amos before (just found this by accident here today)...but let me say this...shades of Led Zeppelin, for sure! Awesome!
this is the OG mic drop. i cant with this video. must have watched 100x in past 10 yrs. im in love w the guy in the audience with the bag on his head too lol. chills watching now. still! i remember hearing the cd version when i was 13-14. but this live version. they dont make them like this anymore
I'm 15 years old and I'm from Poland . I found Tori on youtube 3 years ago. She changed my pathological lives. She learn me, how i must live,how look for a world. Hey! Please tell me,How She can change my lives?Lives normal junkies .. Ps. Sorry for my perfect english..
Never heard of that cd. I don't think it came out here. I never would have bought it anyways.. My Pele-cd have a remix version of Professional Widow though..Maybe that goes for all the releases..
i agree with you. after pele things changed. well she got married and few year later had a kid. those are all things that can change a person. well really things changed when they released pele with remixed versions of songs just to sell more cds. i still dont own that version.
Tori was better live in the early years..SHe had more sincerety then..Now her stage shows seem more like a routine..I would love to her her like 10 years ago..Her music was definitely on top then.
@temporarydive I adore Tori Amos during this era, but Jesus, that's a little selfish on your part. It's like fans of Trent Reznor wishing he was back on the drugs because his artistry has suffered somewhat since The Fragile. More than anything I want Tori to be *happy*, and If having a kid and getting married are the things that bring her happiness, fulfillment and peace on Earth, so be it. It doesn't change what she has accomplished.
Someone enlighten me please as I have not read up on this and don't know if this has been discussed here, but the song is just about her hating someone and being jealous of them to the extent of what the song is talking about right? Did she base this off of a real person?
Why wouldn't it be? She has less time to think about art and being creative. And they say that suffering is the best source of art..Maybe she's more happy now than she were before..:)
Released versions? What was remixed, aside from BT's remix of Talula? Personally, I think Choir Girl is every bit as good as Pele. I like Venus, but it's definitely not as good. SLG had it's moments, but ultimately I think it was just a way to get out of her contract. The album after that was ok. The last album was, IMO, awful. I avoided the new ablum, because I was so disapointed....finally gave it a listen, and think it's her best album in almost 10 years.
I do think it's lovely that she's happy with a child and married. But she really should stop getting her Husband to play guitar on her albums. It ruins things
She never should have gotten married and had a kid..;-) (evidently it changes an artist..Maybe the artistic creativity loses a bit of its magic). Actually I was wondering about this not long ago (when it comes to Tori)..
You think time and energy to husband and children=less creativity? perhaps you are both deprived of the experience. Then again, perhaps you would know no better.

Tori doesn't need all that fluff because she's the real deal.
No artificial light on stage, too
This is the Tori I fell in love with!!! I miss her sometimes.
This is my favorite Tori Amos song..It rocks, especially live..
if i could go back in time. i'd go back to these 7 minutes. god i wish i was born in the 80s instead of the 90s
my lovely tori!!! she's one of the most impressive musicians nowadays.
I remember seeing this on TV. Blown away.
Tori has the ability to heal with her music. She somehow brings guidance to others... She changed my life as well.
.
WOW....ok....I admit, I've never even heard of Tori Amos before (just found this by accident here today)...but let me say this...shades of Led Zeppelin, for sure!
Awesome!
She was pretty powerful in those days. And that says a lot about about young women that had and listened to the album.
such a rocker! love this woman

She's a big Led fan, haha. She's met Robert Plant too :) She loved him growing up! So, makes sense that there's some influence. I love Tori Amos.
I got tears in my eyes. I love her!
What a performance - aah!
TORI AMOS RULES!!
I completely agree, amazing performance here and nobody had boo to say about her body! I love her here, then and now..
This is epic! As good as it gets.
Outstanding
LOVE TORI !! LMAO @3:16-3:19 as she try's to not let the demon out!!
wow... awesome performance
wow amazing,, improvisation there towards the end,, the drummers face at 5;30 haha laughing away!
She is just amazing live!
memorable... i was looking for this -- it helped me so long ago...
Oh, wow! It's raining! That's pretty cool!

Ps. Sorry for my perfect english..
wow. sounds like version on "to venus and back". mesmerizing. she is evil hypnotist no doubt.
@aqueregia Aah, I understand it now. Thank you for the explanation, aqueregia! The lyrics of this song always fascinated me.
yeah i noticed that afterward. i wuz like grrrrrrrrrr. lol
Tori and Caton really bounced off each other. It's a shame he err left.
Steve Caton. I was trying to remember the band members names. I know Matt Chamberlain the drummer and Jon Evans on bass. Thanks 😊
Hahahahaaaa... Very nice.
fantastic. Glastonbury is still a favorite from her
love this song live, so damn hot!
Never heard of that cd. I don't think it came out here. I never would have bought it anyways..
My Pele-cd have a remix version of Professional Widow though..Maybe that goes for all the releases..
@antuonchris Yes! Thank you for that, totaly agree!
i agree with you. after pele things changed. well she got married and few year later had a kid. those are all things that can change a person. well really things changed when they released pele with remixed versions of songs just to sell more cds. i still dont own that version.

❤️
is she in the rock & roll hall of fame yet?
Did she ever film a video for this song or is it live perfomances only? I'd be curious to see that one lol
bomb
cleverbot brought me here..
Yeah..Makes sense..
I don't think her inner soul has changed. Nobody's soul changes I think.
Aunque no merezcas mi amor, te sigo queriendo de César para Johanna
cuz all that matters is how you think she should look. o.0 newsflash: she doesn't care what you think.

Agree, she looks more delicious in this
This is Poughkeepsies right?
What venue/festival is this?
Think Glastonbury 1998
What do you mean?

I disagree I think the Plugged tour was her best

Woman on woman abuse song
well she went from 90% of her energy going to music to.........
30% to husband 40% to kid and 30% to music. less time = less creative.
