BEAUTIFUL

 

[u2popmofo]

I like it.

Tori Amos pretty much always does cool covers of songs. I like how she actually tries different things with the songs. Good stuff.

Wow this is like my dream combination.

I can't download your mp3, unfortunately. Something is obstructing it.

I just tried it again...it takes a while but it still works for me

 

[Squishy Peanut]

Cool, Tori Amos is one of the only female singers I actually like
Nice version!

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

[yertle-the-turtle]

well the football's done
and I'm listening to it

I like it

as i said in the other thread...

Well. I'm on the second listen and I'm having an interesting reaction. I can't believe I'm saying this because I totally love Tori ... but now that I'm hearing it, I realize that no one should ever sing this song publicly again except for Bono. I'm kidding, but it's just not right. 'She is raging' is powerful and if I'd been sitting there in front of Tori while she sang it I would have sobbed like an idiot and made a fool of myself and possibly entered an altered state. Tori sings it beautifully but I just don't ever need to hear it again by anybody but Bono for the rest of my life.

Tori

This just in: so I missed the Red Rocks show and this performance. But I just scored 3rd row centre seats to see her at Merriweather Post in MD.

wow you LUCKY thing!!! 3rd Row center!!! I'm very jealous...when I saw her last I wasn't very near the front! But it was Tori so who cares...

 

[HeartlandGirl]

Downloading it now...

I like that guy's website. Any fan of Placebo is a friend of mine.

 

[SkeeK]

i would say one of the better u2 covers

 

[HeartlandGirl]

I tried very hard not to like it (just in a resistant mood, I guess), but it was very beautiful. I felt like Tori gets the song, and that was what was important.

 

[foray]

Okay celia I've downloaded it. Thank you so much; it's great!

no problem, glad you enjoyed it

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

Thank you for posting this celia- I think it's a gorgeous version.

I'm so ashamed to admit I don't own any of her CD's, but I've always loved her voice, and I admire her very much.

I'd love to hear her cover some other U2 songs..and sing w/ Bono too.

Tori singing with Bono would be AMAZING!!!

Tori Amos - Running to Stand Still - Oh My!

check out @u2 for a cover of RTSS at Red Rocks. Great reaction from the guy in the audience at the start when he susses it out! Will always be a favourite track and this does nothing to dilute ..

 

[celia]

I love Tori Amos and was sooo excited when I heard she had done a cover of this beautiful song! Its a great version, then again Tori always does great cover songs.

 

[adamswildhoney]

 

[sharky]

aw, this is soooo good.

 

[Mark Freedman]

She does a great job! I think this is a perfect cover for her to do. I usually don't like covers of anything, but she does this justice.

 

[shaun vox]
