Why Tori is the fucking best. Knew it in the 90s...still true today. How do eyes not water when ears hear this song? Love you Tori ! You've been there for me all my adult life.

Her voice is magical. Always be my queen ❤️❤️❤️

The older I get the more this has become one of my all time favorites 🖤

Such a genius song

I Just discovered "Scarlets walk" and i CRIED...it was so intence and then this song...there is no word for this feeling...

I just had to buy my second copy of Scarlet's Walk cause my old one was so shagged out from being played and played. When I got it home I had to play this first. It's masterful. It kinda encapsulates everything I love about Tori's music. The playing, the lyric, the whole mood of "Virginia" is so quintessentially Tori.

Sigh... My mother is decended from the Shawnee people of the Ohio valleys (though i am the image of my Irish father) and this song has always touched me on a deep personal level. Thank you Tori, and Thank you poster.

After this album, it's gonna be hard to find anything that can compare to it's artistry. I thought I knew depth, musicality, lyricism and raw musical emotion - after Scarlet's Walk, I feel like the saying says: "A man who knows something, knows that he knows nothing at all".

Amazing and continually relevent... thank you Tori

Some things don`t fade. And neither do their meaning. JUST as relevant as it was when I bought the album first - even more relevant.

she sounds like an angel crying...absolutely breathtaking ...

Just mesmerizing! I love this song, the way it is written--it could be 'America' herself, personified as an ancient, mysterious but lost Undine--forgetting her history, being used and abused by her abusive, ignorant human masters. Musically, it is like a siren song.

Wow. I love the original version of this song, but when it's just the piano, the truly complex compositional structure really comes through!

This song give me goosebumps. So amazing.

Yessssssss! I'm in awe. Intense. Beautiful.

Gracias Tori amos beautiful

What I would have done to have been there for this whole performance. Props to the lighting and set designers.

the best song of scarlet's walk...love it!

I completely agree!!! This song is one of my very faves and this is a GREAT acoustic version!

Maybe it would have more of an effect on me if I were American, but even so, this song always strikes me as something with a very deep kind of sadness to it. The very idea of "What you would tell somebody who was deprived of their identity by lots of exploitation when they were still young and innocent" hits me the strongest, I guess, but the whole lost civilization thing is deeply sad, too. Those easternmost states that were settled first... what did the indigenous people even call them?

the tentive it makes completely sense!!!she is my soul guide i simply adore her music.

BEST song on Scarlet's Walk ever!

Thank you so very much for posting this clip! It is by far , my favorite Tori Amos song.

Amazing song! I love the final.

Thanks for posting it. Tori does it best ALONE. I wish she'd tour witihout the boys.

one of my favs from scarlet's walk. it always gives me goosebumps.

I have to agree!! She's defintiely my muse!!

Lovely Tori

Masterpiece!

I wish she would do more songs with just the piano . This version is so much more moving than the band version

MARAVILHOOOSSSAAAAAA

I guess loss of identity, be it personal or cultural (the latter being something I don't really understand, comming from a very mixed background and growing up in Germany, where any sort of old culture has been killed dead by its association with a certain nutjob) is always a very sad thing, *especially* when the person themselves doesn't even notice anymore...

Beautiful! Both the music and the vision... (:o)

Yeah... wish to see it again for years! It was on french-german Tv : Arte. On a show called rock'n'roll circus.... Love this song !

Happy Birthday Tori!

great! thanks for sharing!!

Just perfect, I love Tori and I love this song. This performance was great but I think it sounds much better with the band.

Thanx ... wow!

i know shit about music but the riff at 1:50 def reminds me of "where is my mind" by the pixies... also both songs deal with the theme of being mentally lost somehow

Thanks! A unique version, I love it

The TV show was "musicplanet2night", and Arte (a german and french tv channel". The show was recorded on a small parisian theater called "The Reservoir". Her, you can find all the songs sang during this short performance: www.yessaid.com/int/2002-10-02_Music_Planet_2Night.html

@dangpet --- i also love her live version of "cooling" and "garlands" is another breath taking song.....but my ultimate fave is "hey jupiter" the dakota version truely a masterpiece !!!!

this is so much better than the album version

my first concert by her she didn't have the band (I was a little let down cause I wanted to hear all of "She's Your Cocain") ... I like it when it's split. Some songs need the extra support and engery she gets from her band mates. I'm glad she does both.

still awesome!!!

This is the song of every woman. Hang on to your lip gloss, girls.

Your right.

@spinyopaat ...welcome to the wonderful world of being an 'ear with feet' as Tori likes to call us. she'll make you feel things and bring about new perspectives and when it happens, baby, you won't know what hit ya.

You lost me there because i i couldnt keep you went onne way and waved good bye we love from afar my desert the scared place that you could trust and many years later you vcaught my soul and laughed that i believe in your love i actually brlieve in myself and from vegas to the scaref caboose out away from the world of show biz kids. You could finally see why i remain is with honor and respect you knpw that place but time has run quiclley through the distance of how others might spill your secrets that busy busy liffe of show biz kids but here you dont have tob run from your its. Here .its here where ni body dwelling in your.self no body to play with we are not to be eexposed to the ones that are lamb it is here you remainef in my heart for this scared place is loyal to itself. respected by you thats why we played together with angels loving the way we could heal or break any chains anb ronny james dio sang from the place where no knows and sang all the fools sailed away lisen o the logical the voice of reason that love is not a physical boundries that brighten uo to those who seek rest and a reason to believe

oups... I was wrong for the show : it's "music planet tonight" !

You can't remember your name
