Emilie Autumn Liddell was born in Los Angeles, California, better known by her stage name Emilie Autumn, is an American singer-songwriter, poet, and violinist. Autumn draws influence for her music-the style of which she has alternatively labeled as "Victoriandustrial" and glam rock-from plays, novels, and history, particularly the Victorian era. Performing with her all-female backing band The Bloody Crumpets, Autumn incorporates elements of classical music, cabaret, electronica, and glam rock with theatrics, burlesque, and "flamboyant" outfits. Outspoken about bipolar disorder and her experience in a modern-day psychiatric ward, she has written an autobiographical novel, 2010's The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls.
Her music encompasses a wide range of styles. Autumn's vocal range registers from contralto to dramatic soprano, and her vocal work has been compared to Tori Amos, Kate Bush, and The Creatures. She has released two instrumental albums (On a Day... and Laced/Unlaced), and three which feature her vocals: Enchant, Opheliac, and A Bit o' This & That. The 2003 album Enchant drew on "new age chamber music, trip-hop baroque, and experimental space pop". Autumn layers her voice frequently, and incorporates electronics and electronic effects into her work on Enchant; she also combines strings and piano for some songs, while others feature mainly the piano or violin. The 2006 release Opheliac featured "cabaret, electronic, symphonic, new age, and good ol' rock & roll (and heavy on the theatrical bombast)." - Hudba
If I could sing like Emilie, you bet I would never shut up.
This is the most beautifully sarcastic song I've ever heard. Bless.
I don't know why people is so rude with Emilie voice, I like her arsh voice, this is mostly why I love her. It's different and beautiful.
C0MA BLACK I agree. I always seem to enjoy artist who are different. 😊
Indeed. Not everyone has to sound like an opera singer to be good. You can hear the raw emotion in her voice.
C0MA BLACK personally, I enjoy the growl-type voice is not my favorite, despite my favorite singer of all time, Joakim Bröden, does it often, emilie autumn and her songs are truly beautiful.
If I was at this concert, I would've cried at her touching my hand G0D SHES MY IDOL
This woman is so talented and beautiful. Her strength and character are so beguiling.
I hope she comes to Japan.
She’d be super popular here.
Oh. And I love her voice!
I feel as if I've been deprived my entire Life as I'm only JUST discovering this GEM... looking forward to seeing more N more incredible musicians, singers, poets from the West Coast...
From this show, this one's the best vocal performance. I started to think she can't sing live, but this was a nice surprise.
Sempre morro com essa musica ♥
she's so fucking talented
uber talented
She’s alluring I feel such contentment
She's gorgeous as always! You'll be mad at me, but I miss her red hair and insanity on stage like before :D

*this
Thank God I'm pretty
The occasional free drink I never asked for
The occasional admission to a seedy little bar
Invitation to a stranger's car
I'm blessed
With the ability to render grown men tongue-tied
Which only means that when it's dark outside
I have to run and hide
Can't look behind me
Thank God I'm pretty
Thank God I'm pretty
Every skill I ever have will be in question
Every ill that I must suffer
Clearly brought on by myself
Though the cops would come for someone else
I'm blessed
I'm truly privileged to look this good without clothes on
Which only means that when I sing you're jerking off
And when I'm gone you won't remember
Thank God I'm pretty
Thank you God
Oh Lord
Thank you God
And when a gaggle of faces appears around me
It's lucky I hate to be taken seriously
I think my ego would fall right through the cracks in the floor
If I couldn't count on men to slap my ass anymore
I know my destiny's such
That I must stocking and curl
So everybody thinks that I'm
A fucking Suicide Girl
Thank you God
For the occasional champagne I never asked for
The occasional admission to a seedy little bar
Invitation to a stranger's car
I'm blessed
With the ability to render grown men tongue-tied
Which only means that when it's dark outside
I have to run and hide
Can't look behind me
Thank you God
Thank you God
Thank you God
Thank you thank you thank you thank you
Thank you God
wtf did i just see??!!!
The best thing ever.
Its like if Amanda palmer got cooler and prettier and realizes she is pretty!
Okay, so there was that drink you never asked for.. but then there were all your elaborate costumes, your stage set, your choreography, your camera crew, your video producers + editors...
Ryan Wynns she’s a singer, she’s commenting on how it’s like to be a woman in places like bars and how it’s not entirely safe because some men feel entitled to sex if they get woman stuff they don’t ask for.
She fakes too much of the emotion. She sings well in this but if she kept more natural I think it would sound reeeally angelic.
+theamvgirlx I agree. It's too dramatic.
+theamvgirlx that's the whole point though isn't it? She's theatrical and its like a musical to her. All of it is her artistic expression...she's a bit mad(or she was) and it comes out in that way.
"No great genius has ever existed without some touch of madness." Aristotle
+The Right Honourable Jimmy aren't we ALL touched with a bit 'O madness? I think so.. :)
There's nothing "angelic" about her. You didn't got it
