Absolutely stunning version!

Hands crossed are because this song requieres major skills in the low register, so the right hand goes to the low tones in the piano and the left one plays the chords in the upper register

I thought it was because the right hand was used to playing the higher notes on the second piano, but that makes sense.

That voice is still so incredible after all those other amazing songs she's sang, she still writes and performs them to perfection! I just love this woman forever!!

God, this is amazing. Even better than the album cut, in my opinion. I wonder why she plays it with her arms crossed over one another? Pretty impressive, in any case.

@heinzie5 Oftentimes a composer will have hands crossing over, but she seems to be playing that way because she's adjusted a two-keyboard piece to one keyboard. In other words, she wrote for the right hand to be on the other keyboard, and it's easier to have it play the notes it's used to playing than flip the hands around. :)

*she's twisted, don't you hear what she sings about? Listen to spacedog and beauty queen.*

the way she plays this.. it's perfection.

Her music is as amazing with just the piano as it is with a full band...the true sign of amazing art. She is indeed a Goddess, thank you for sharing this with us!

Thank you Tori. You are a wonderful channel

LOVE LOVE LOVE to hear the more complex songs stripped down like this....Love this version

She is fabulous! No words to describe her unique art !

I love this song!

This was my least favorite song on the album when I first heard it, and listening to it here just changed all that for me. It's beautiful.

as with a passionate love, the most brilliant require a time of fermentation that brings out its hidden treasures the beauty of speed is the illusions it tricks us into en route to those gems in the rough

beautiful.......beautiful....she has this amazing warm voice which takes you away and when she sings she's so into it and amazingly femminine...

I love you Tori!

Thank you

This is such a beautiful song!

i love this song.

love tori!!

:) oh Rick I'm so happy you love her too!

god, i am loving this chick

I like this version very much

what a beautiful woman.

she's a godess... no doubt! te amo tori

Agreed.

i like clyde's songs best of all the posse's.

i love efery tori album but always enjoy her best with just her and the girls.these american dolle possie remakes are amazing,better than the alt-rock band on album.2mexx

is there any way to obtain this version in decent quality _somewhere_? i really don't like the album version that much, but this is gorgeous.

having an awesome time learning this song.. i only have one piano so am trying to master the arm crossing thing. bloody hard work.. it'd be better if i refined my technique before learning this. (being self taught, i have virtually none)

tori doesn't just play or sing she TRANSCENDS

TechnoTroubadour She does just sing and she does just play. It's just that not many others do.

Ha, well, I think I understand your explanation. Thank you! I was wondering after watching a second time if it also has something to do with the fact that it was originally composed with her using her right hand on the piano/keyboard behind her and the left hand on the main piano.

does anyone know where i can find a download of this acoustic version?

#ElfegoChavez #Sweetheart #ToriAmos

clyde has the best songs.

Was this video made specifically for youtube?, if so brilliant!

I wished the song was like this on the album. I might have gotten spoiled by this version when she was playing it without a band on the radio shows across Europe but it would have been better than the album version...

çok tatlı bence=)

this song is hard to play.... but so much fun to learn! lol

@proximity1111 I believe it's a Blue. It's extremely expensive.

I love seeing her play two pianos at the same time, so I'm a little desapointed with this video... I prefer the album version, but this one is beautiful too. Tori would be awesome even if she played Britney Spears. =)

she did! check baby one more time

and then we tumbled out of control

I am almost ashamed to ask, but I've been wondering for a while now about the ring on her finger, on the right hand. She has it like for years now, whenever she appears. So, does anyone know the meaning of it, or who she got it from? PS: Like ADP. Better than the last two albums I think. Beauty of Speed is one of my favorites along with Smokey Joe, Father's Son, Digital Ghost. Seen her in concert in Bucharest. What a trip that was:)Thanks for sharing the studio version too.

"It was a present from Mark and was an 'I like you' ring. I saw it and asked if it was for me and he said yes. I liked him and I liked sapphires too. (smiles) This was two years before he popped the question."

@heinzie5 it's proper technique.

:)

@CheapSushi She wanted to look like that, to make a statement! The same thing with the photo from ADP of track housing and a bible!

also question to any pianists. is playing with your hands crossed over like that a proper technique or is it just her being weird yet awesome as useual xD

ooo wassup rich man ;) when we finally have that jam i will show you how to play it :D

Hey it's rich! Blast from the past :-p

i always prefer tori amos without the backing band

Even still I was built to tolerate your temper....

Like played Britney like a piano, that may be hot haha. I dont thingk im understanding what you mean. Sometimes I get disappointed with myself, because now I like this song A LOT, and I am like well why didnt I before?

looking back and forth from two pianos it terriable

@scanterh I think that may be an accurate interpretation

@proximity1111 oooh now i get it, now that I researched what dextro is....the speed drug. but I don't think the song is necessarily about a drug...but who knows...

*what color is the sky in your world? American doll posse is largely religious, the song is about emerging into a rapidly changing world. Step outside and look up, the sky has been changing colors for years, as we travel through revelation - now listen to Smokey Joe and you will come out of your black and white world.*

@proximity1111 And what is it about? I'm one of those dumb people, sorry to shock you again. Since you said there's a direct message, I was reading at the lyrics, and for me this song talks about how she's been able to overcome all the differences she's had with her husband, because despite it all, there's always the love that they have for each other which is bigger...something like that? no? correct me if I'm wrong, haha ;)

Great song. BAD hair. She looks like she came out of The Adams Family movie.

I love this song!
