That “ I’ve been to the movies , I’ve seen how it ends “ line get me every time.
M1978 1978 the joke is ON THEM ..💚💚💚
Yeeeees
M1978 1978 the line that gets me is “I see your eyes behind your hair, and you’re looking tired, but you don’t look scared.” Tears me up every time. Incredible.
me too, it's my favorite line in the song.
"The arc of history bends towards justice."

Her voice is OUT OF THIS WORLD
SYA史斯宇 her voice sucks
Kevin Hughes Ok
@TRK YES! Thank you! Self absorbed to the extreme.
Kevin Hughes I agreee
@@heneedsomemilk9267 bitter Hetero who can never have her
nothing but a guitar and a legendary voice, AMAZING
Oh hey fellow little monster and Brandi fan!
Luciano Ramos pure music. REAL music. By one of the best singer songwriters of of this generation.
I liked it a lot more in this version , her voice is not competing with more instruments .
Her voice is like liquid gold with specs of diamonds floating amongst one another.
Silent Stag Ooh I love this analogy!
Haha yeah
Silent Stag That’s a dramatic analogy, but I have to agree with it, nonetheless. 🙂 What!A! Voice!
People are finally taking notice of this woman’s talent artistry. She’s always seeking the truth in her work. So so amazing her Grammy performance was.
Edward Hannah I heard The Story when I was about 20 and have loved her ever since. She’s truly incredible
I just love that Brandi and the twins are finally getting the recognition they deserve. Long long long overdue in my opinion. Love what Brandi is wearing and the colour.
OMG yes, I´ve loved her since The Story
@@kdmiranda Couldn't agree more.
It’s a great big world & sometimes recognition just takes time. But it all pales in comparison to getting truly live a dream.
Kirsty who are the twins?
@@bojohnson5387 Phil and Tim Hanseroth. The three of them make up the band and have been with Brandi since the beginning. They have written several of their songs or co-written them with Brandi. Phil actually wrote "The Story" which has been their biggest commercial hit.
brandi's voice gives me chills. this song gives me chills. her ability to write such powerful songs gives me chills.
Is this what imperfectly perfect sounds like? Those little breaks in her voice are just omggggg I cant love her voice enough!
This lady just spills her entire soul out when she sings. She is very special💗
When she says she came out as a teen (it was back in the 90s). Not an easy thing or as accepted as it is now these days. Love that she speaking to it, touches and is healing for so many in our generation.
Growing up in the 80s being a lesbian was very lonely because we just did not talk about it. I did wear a tux to my senior prom in1994..it is now getting better for sure
I hid unfortunately not ready to face what I feared to come. Being a teen in the 90’s was hard enough for me and I just wasn’t strong enough. I envy her strength
I remember the first time I heard this song. I just cried and cried.. I played it on loop for hours and the impact wouldn't fade. What a song.. what a voice.. what lyrics! Out of this world!
This is one of the most perfectly written and smashed-out-of-the-park songs in recent memory 💜
Like Space cowboy or Slow Burn by Kacey musgraves
Wait till you hear "The Story".
Brandi is my absolute favorite musician. Finally getting the recognition she deserves! But this woman, it won’t change her in the slightest. She’s truly authentic- a brilliant lyricist with a voice like no other!
I just love her. Her voice is only part of her greatness. Her soul is GOOD. Honest and kind. She is rock and roll with tenderness.
As Great as any song in my Lifetime!! And I'm 63..and Have Beatles, Dylan, and the Rest!!.. Fabulous!
George Ugas agree. Fantastic.
George Ugas agree completely
at 60, i'm in agreement with you
I am trying to remember the last time I heard something for the first time that kicked me in the feels as hard as her voice just did. I am shook. Tears pouring down my face. I can't even process how beautiful it is. I wasn't ready
Natalie Manis me too!!!!!
Me too
Agreed
I still am brought to tears everytime. I first heard the song when she was interviewed on Howard Stern and she talked about meeting this boy at a party. She was so drawn to him and his struggles. Besutiful song. Love all her work.
Same. Beautiful...
When she paused and then BELTED that note… the guitar and her voice came in perfectly and I was blown away. She left me in tears.
Brandi Carlile is the best singer/songwriter in the world today.
This song is so awesome. Every once in awhile you hear a song that rocks you to your core. This is it.
Chills & tears. She did phenomenal @ the Grammy's, but took it to another level, right here. So AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is AWESOME, but her GRAMMYS version is the BEST!
Absolutely AMAZING!!!! And her Grammy performance has got to be one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen!!!!
WOW! A sitdown interview with Ellen! I am so happy for Brandi and I was absolutely positive that, once people heard her on such a far reaching event as the Grammys, her popularity would soar. And so it has! Congratulations to her and the Twins. No one could be more deserving!
I was at that Madison Square Garden show. She packed the house and was phenomenal!! First saw her when she opened for Chris Isaak in Morristown, NJ right after her debut album came out. The sound system shut down mid-song and she kept right on playing. Her voice easily carried to the last row, unamplified. Was fortunate enough to get her to sign the CD I purchased at intermission in the lobby of the venue. One of my prized possessions.
This woman’s voice is a national treasure. It’s so beautiful it’s almost tragic somehow.
When she hit the notes her smile was so beautiful...live and acoustic 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 just wow...it was out of this world.
This sounds even better acoustic!!!! Mind blown!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯
OfficialNataly yep
That's Brandi for you
Editing for Brandi must be so easy because she’s so perfect
She has a unique style i can listen to it more and more
She deserves all success in the world. So talented and beautiful voice and her message brings hope and encourages people. AMAZING.
MANUEL ANTONIO ARIZA CASTRO Yeah I need my tablet of her so my tablet of herself I would say
The chord progression of the melody using those b (flat)chords make it so melancholy and gorgeously bitter sweet. It's a great song to cover. Benicio on AGT just did and he killed it.
I only watch the voice
She’s one of the few singer/songwriters that can still bring me to tears no matter how many times I’ve heard the song before. If you haven’t seen her live yet do yourself a favor and check her out...she’s a phenomenal person
It took me 30 minutes to watch this 6-minute video. I just kept replaying at the 2:40 minute mark! She’s great.
Silent Stag She really is. I love her performance at women’s correctional center. I see them later, when they are out, and it makes me feel as good to touch their lives in a positive way
Shame its taken this long. The Story was incredible in 2007. Brandi is the Janis Joplin and Mary Travers of our generation.
That song should have garnered them a Grammy nomination. We knew it at the time!
@@sunnydaygogo Hi Sunny, I agree
You're totally right. Been a fan since the Story.
@@marialuisamontanez6735 Hi Maria, I love how this song makes me feel. Involved in several emotions.
Maria Luisa Montanez same!
So proud of you sister!! YOU SMILE BIG WHEN YOU HIT THEM NOTES!! 😭🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Seattle loves you girl! You have and will always melt me. Smoothest sweetest voice ever. ❤️
Somer Flowers So I’d have to do that
She has such a huge piece of my heart. An honor and a pleasure to have grown up with her music and to watch her shine like this now.
She dont need an auto tune...her voice tough..my god.
The chills and tears overtook me. No matter how many times I hear this song - it leaves me stunned. She's a force to be reckoned with - I love her!
and Brandi sings truth, heartfelt truth...her voice is needed always!
Betty Harvey always asked for her to know that and And I saying it to be mean OK I think I’ve got her her take her time
Thrilled to see her finally getting the attention she deserves! Great voice, even better person! xo
Nearly 62. Grew up hating country and folk music. Saw Brandi on Jools Holland's tv show. Fell in love with that voice. She transcends styles. Years went by until I bought The Story album. I cried all the way through. She and "The Twins' are special. I now have five albums of hers and I'm desperate to see her live. I don't cry so much now but I just did.
We are all misunderstood
The last time I saw her live I was visiting my aunt and cousin in Asheville last year. They lost everything in Katrina. When they performed The Eye their eyes were just pouring, which of course moved me as well. They are now fans.
This song just makes me cry. Every single time
Me too
Me as well
And yet they still aren’t playing it on mainstream radio!!! WTH
Love Brandi and the Twins!
They are a certain niche she is too left for country music stations, and too country/folk for pop stations. She’s doesn’t fit into their little compartments. I love her because I love GREAT music and GREAT SONGWRITING. I don’t care what genre it is.
Amazing , I truly think a fire lit in her in the last half of the song , I could feel the energy change in her voice , wow that was incredible .
I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it while watching Brandi perform it on SNL. I was blown away. It has got to be one of the most emotionally powerful songs I have ever heard.
She's so great. I love songs with just an acoustic guitar... such a beautiful sound/ song. Gorgeous voice, wow!
She has an incredible soul - this is artistry at its finest.
If a violin had a voice, it would be Brandi’s.
So perfectly said.
Did you see the American Express commercial of this song? It was a violin cover! That’s how I discovered it!
I fell in love with this song the minute I heard it last year. What a beautiful voice she has and such talent!
I have heard so much about you, Brandi. I finally listened to this today, my 7th time and counting. Powerful relief from unrelenting depression.
I’m so glad to hear that! I love when music acts as a cure, even if temporary. ❤️
Grant Brad Gerver God Bless You
Been a fan for years but I saw her for the first time last May! This woman is absolutely phenomenal and so so humble! She and the twins deserve every bit of success that comes their way! Her music has gotten me out of so much of my anxiety and depression! Gosh I’m so proud of her! Much love! 💖💖💖💖
this is beautiful! I can't wait to see her live!!
Sidney W. She’s even better live. Promise.
I saw her live in MInneapolis. She blows it away!!!
Last summer she sold out 3 days straight in Vancouver Washington
I have been to the movies, but I never seen talent like this.... Outstanding runs and vocal control....I love the acoustic version...... well done!!
The first time I heard this song, it became one of my favorite songs. Ever.
Brandi your voice is breathtaking and your raw emotions are so evident in your beautiful lyrics. Flawless 💜
I've seen her live a couple times. Outstanding!
Crying as per usUAL
I love Brandi so much ❤️😭
Lyrics are so good thank you so much
This woman is art like sksksksksk she is so beautiful, kind and her voice. NO WORDS😍😍❤️
AWESOME. That voice, those lyrics, incredible. One of my favorite artists, one of my all time favorite songs...
Wonderful storytelling, songwriting and quite the voice. All accentuated by that gorgeous guitar. Salute to you miss Carlile🙌🏼
Beautiful! Love listening to her and feeling her music. Just close your eyes and let her music take you.
Brandi should have had so much more recognition than she ever received. I do believe she has garnered much respect and awe, not only from the public, but fellow performers. That voice is amazingly beautiful. The Story is my favorite Brandi Carlyle song. She’s just amazing!!!!!
she's standing there, singing like that, playing like that, looking like that, smiling like that and I just can't take my eyes and ears off
God... I cried again. Brandi... I’m so in love with this song and your voice omg
Brandi is such a powerhouse.
I just watched this today and cried for joy because WOW! - is this the Coolest song ever or what? Brandi's voice is so pure and SO gorgeous! Love to Brandi 💞💪🎵 ~
Unbelievably humble and kind.
if her voice and words don't send chills down to your spine then I have no words.
Chills and tears she’s so amazing you can feel it in your bones ❤️
WE LOVE BRANDI!!!
Brandi is the best singer in the whole entire world. SHE HAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VOICE EVER. She is an angel and most of all for all this recognition she deserves it more than anyone in this whole world. I LOVE BRANDI
It's sad that we will never get to see a Freddie Brandi duet.
Right?
LOVE her. Still listen to "What Can I Say" in heavy rotation.
I have always loved Brandi, she’s getting the attention she has deserved for soooo long!
Her voice is liquid gold.
Artist like this give me hope for the future of music...
I wish I could like this twice.
Brandi is a gift that keeps on giving. I don’t even know how to put into words how much I love her and how grateful I am for her existence and her music. A legend. We love ya, B 💗
She has one of the best most pure voices I have ever heard. She has the voice of an angel.
Love her... Love her music... Love her voice😍❤️😍
Ridiculously good, gets me every time. What talent!
She's the definition of multi-talented.
Absolute perfection and love how she knows she nailed it!
I love how she sings the big notes like is nothing I love how powerful is this without having a band and dancers and beats around is just music and this is beautiful
It’s doesn’t get any better than that!!!!!!! Love you Brandi Carlisle.
The purity, clarity with which he hits her notes and still she conveys emotion is monumental
Brandi carlile and LP should do a song together! Both incredibly talented artists. Voices of angels ❤️
She is jus diamond..!! Her voice should be sent in the universe.!! 🙌
Everyone needs to hear her. 👌🙌😍 Finally the band is gettng the recognition that they deserve. 😎
I’ve just discovered Brandi and enjoying her music. @3:30 onwards is just incredible.
Ryan McCaffrey agreed, from that point on is incredible! And I’ve been a longtime fan of hers lol
THE VOICE THAT DELIVERS - "THE JOKE" AND "THE STORY" - SERIOUSLY - WOWZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear this is the most cathartic song in the world. to listen to, to scream, to sing, anything really it makes me cry every time no matter the circumstance
I love the way her voice breaks
And now for some reason I’m crying 3:40! How is this happening ?!
Silent Stag same every time. She’s amazing.. and benecio Bryant too.
That register low notes its always hits me everytime hear this song
Saw Brandi last year in October at Niagara with my wife. Best time ever. She is wonderful. 🤩
I’ve seen her live 4 times now. She is absolutely amazing in concert!
I love her and want to hear Whatever You Do live by her because that is the one of the best songs ever made!!! Her words define my whole life 😭😭
Chills. ❤️ I saw Brandi live in 2011, was standing in the front row and got an amazing photo of her looking at me during a song. She and the twins are so incredibly talented. It’s a memory I’ll never forget. So happy for her!
still makes me shiver at the end
I cry every freaking time.
