I think what most people forget here is that Tori Amos is the full personification of an entertainer and an afficianado of all music. She does not need to do covers to make a living. She is a great vocalist, pianist and songwriter as it is. It's her passion for music that inspires what she does when she covers songs. That's why she got kicked out of a very distinguished music school at the age of 11. She refused to follow sheet music and wanted to play Jimi Hendrix songs on the piano.

THIS is the Tori Amos I fell in love with as a kid. Amazing! Simply breathtaking!

Those were the days. Tori was brilliant in her early years...

vest version ever!!!!! I cry everytime I listen to it...it has so much feeling! love you Tori!!!

This song has a very special meaning to me. Tori turns it into magic - some secrets are forever!

They say she was something in her formative years 👂👂👂👣👣👣

Such a beautiful cover. Such a wonderful song. I miss THIS Tori.

Love this performance of this song and the original song by the Stones is just as awesome!

Yeah... I've never been a fan of The Rolling Stones and never heard this song until I heard Tori's version which is so gorgeous. Then I went to listen to their original version. That was nice of Tori to fix it for them. I'm not even joking! lol

Something about this song even after years of this performance is so moving. It's always brings me back to square one and I know everything is gonna be ok.

i love tori so much she makes me remember who i really am, this time had been really hard to my, its 00:00 and i started to remember my real feeling about my life, i dont care if you are reading this but let me tell you:"you only live once"

Great song, Tori's cover is brilliant as usually :D Her voice is magnificent!!!

Courageously creative, incredible sensitive with spice -- that pure Tori!

Beautiful

When y'all sing inyr car or at home, how often do you flail or fail at what you know hear feel move to perfectly, after years of practiced passion? God knows I fucking do. That's her true magic. Going into it, flowing into and through it. She's top of the game, different rules. If rules even apply. Not enough viewings shows or hearings for my taste. And I'm so Jagger's baby, raised and xrushing on forever, so..... every time she "flubs" live, fucking magic.

merci

I saw her on this tour in 1992 in San Diego in a small venue with about 200 people. This sure looks like that night, but I doubt it. I like her cover of 'smells like teen spirit'.

i have more respect for someone who covers a song a different instrument then it was originally played because it is usually harder to do that and more original.

très très beau.

i love this song! :))

When you think about it, Tori must love the Stone's version and her admiration may have caused her to want to pay tribute to it and them. Some will naturally enjoy her expression and some will probably hate it. There's not really an in-between for these kind of things.

She made here a beautiful and sincere performance. That's what I expect from a real artist, and she is.

@karolkirz2 yes, her original version is on the 'Crucify' EP. Along with an outstanding cover of Zepellin's 'Thank You,' as well.

true that girls got it sorted

Great, just great!!!

Holy hell. Way to make the most out of a flub. lol... Jesus, you think she's messed up the words and then she just takes it in an ENTIRELY different direction! LOL ... Amazing!

I've just fallen in love. omfg I really have...stunning performa....no fuck it...I'm in love!!! lalala *

OMG she's so cute it's almost too much!!!

Thank you, I've seen her do this, different it was(full lyrics) but Tori has remade it into something that is hers. She held a note for almost a solid minute when I saw her. The part before the final chorus...

i so wanted to ask angie out!!!!

Genius!

C'est très beau.

super

lol nice one! it almost got better in the middle.

well said!

tori has being going for 15 years as is. I like a lot of the stones early cds but they havent done a cd or album that was worth a crap in the last 30 of those 40 years. well maybe the first 15 years was good for the stones but after that well.... nothing, just living on the past

The original has a very full piano part in it and is a prominent part of the tune.

👏

i think Im in love with her...

Hearing this song by her, made me actually respect the Rolling Stones. Sorry...not a fan of them. Thanks for posting this video. Beautiful.

@Hereinmyhead102 Which year? I've been watching Tori play since before LE came out.

This is just the way I remembered her when I saw her in concert in 1992 in Knoxville, but I think the outfit may be different. Anybody got any pix from the Knoxville (TN) concert from '92?

haha where did you see her play at? one of the shows i went to she held the note for a very very long time as well.

The Back Yard in Bee Cave, mid 90's. She was breathtaking.

I don't know why people are giving you thumbs down because I can see where you are coming from. However I wouldn't say she's butchering other songs. She is just doing her own thing with them. Of course the originals are better, and it's not like the originals were replaced by her because we can listen to the original whenever we want. So all I would say is Tori Amos just makes a different version. If she replaced the Rolling Stone then that would be butchering...

Orpheum Theatre in Memphis...

We were like row 6 or 8 up front my friend met her two shows earlier same tour. She saw her 4 times that tour and after each show. Tori would turn right to us at times during the show. Angie was her name, so this song always held special meaning!

lmao = ?

yeah, you'll forget her cause you don't know the real good music. can you do what she's doing in this video? i dont think so..

a think it's a shame waht she did whith this song I love the original from the stones

I looked up pretentious in the dictionary and saw Tori's picture.
