Beth Orton - Stolen Car live @ Glastonbury '99 video free download

The Village Hall Gigs

she's a frigging genius song writa

Why is the audience so far away? Could be in the front row, yet, so far away.

 I would rather hear a singer/songwriter perform their own material 'live' with passion and soul (as on this video,'mistakes' and all) than any of those 'celebrated' singers who usually soullessly go through the motions churning out other people's songs or 'standards' because they can't write their own.The problem is that the masses sit back and accept that stuff,along with miming and auto-tuned performances on television and don't question it because they don't know any different.We need more singer/songwriters like Beth Orton,Suzanne Vega,Natalie Merchant and Heather Nova,and a lot less of those music industry products such as . . . . . .  (you can fill in the blanks-there are so many!).

This interpretation is so full of energy. I'd rather go with this version instead of the studio one at any time.

Does anyone have any tapes or anything from Glasto 99? There was a band on called Human Species and Imogen heap was the singer . . . can't remember what the song was called but I remember "I see only what I wanna see" any info would be much apppreciated. It's little known but a beautiful song.

One more thing, those that dislike her vocals on this performance must not be familiar with her vocal style. She uses an unusual inflection that makes her songs unique and IMO very emotive.

Wow, a lot of negative comments down at the bottom. This video has been around for several years on Youtube from various users (thanks) and I keep coming back and listening ever so often. Great song and performance and for the record I think this blows away the studio version, but I'm waaay partial to live performances on most anything. Love the hat and Texas sunglasses and the energy that can't be reproduced in the studio.

PhuriousStyles

you fricking idiots this is a live performance with live feelings, emoitions its as it was at that moment not rerecorded in a studio you numptys dont get it or will ever get it i feel sorry for you! and P.S i was there it was fooking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems that many cannot appreciate a live performance. The quirks, flaws, goofs, are real, but so is the emotion of the moment. These criticisms are those of whom a live performance has not been made, nor whom we will never see. This is outstanding for all the reasons some find to criticize. YOu want perfect, go watch videos.
