Imagine being in the audience not knowing who she is, then experiencing this
I have sent her videos to everyone I know and they all asked me to stop because they “weren’t into it.”
so sad for them.
Happened to me on her previous tour. Instantly sold, I was.
@@pdxorbust27 i can relate
Theresa Belle H It’s not fair.💔💙
i don’t get the hype tbh...
I never thought that a pole dance would make me cry.
I guess I'm in the minority but I was not moved by this at all
She is not a pole dancer ... shes a dancer and chose to learn the art of pole dancing
I hope you went and watched the actual video for Cellophane because it is amazing and even more moving.
Missy Schmalz did u even read my comment
@@jinkzava yes, but I wasn't replying to you, I was replying to Meoline.
This performance was waaaaaay too good for this show 💀 She’s amazing
I had read that she was trained in opera and frankly this is very operatic. The themes, the visuals, the music; this is legendary. I’d love to see an opera composed by FKA Twigs because it’d be transcendental. An icon, truly.
I honestly didn’t know this! I’m an opera singer, and I absolutely love this. So much more respect for her!
If she was trained in opera then she has amnesia. Her voice sounds like shit.
I thought the same!! It reminded me of this opera singer who was AMAZING on Conan and his uncultured audience barely clapped.
This performance was too raw and expressive for jimmy Fallon. Definitely an award show performance
Agreed!!
She needs to perform at the Grammys next year
She was tapping into that Goddess energy within.
RIGHTTT
@@---qu3wz Hopefully this year! She got nominated for the best music video!
FKA twigs is like a goddess and Jimmy is like her little gremlin servant announcing her newest creation
BAHAHAHA!!! Dead!!!
Lol
Don't have to put someone else down to idolize someone else jerk.
@@noneya1238 It's clearly a joke calm down
@@jocelyn2953 Who plays like that? She was dead serious, you don't know her attentions to say it's just a joke.
I forgot this was on Jimmy’s show for a second . She deserves such a bigger platform for such a raw and expressive performance. So much admiration.
Same🤣🤣🤣
Wow, I never heard of this artist before - I kinda live under a rock. I discovered her by accident because this song ended a TV show I was watching, and the voice and message were so raw in it, I had to search it on CZcams to hear more. Wow, what an artist - performance, voice, lyrics, blew me away! Took me by surprise. She's a poet - truly different than anything I've seen before. Now the question is, why haven't I heard of her before?? And that's what amazed me. She's all in!! This isn't usually my genre, but good is good and you know it when you hear it no matter what genre you're comfortable with. She stands apart - spellbinding and enigmatic. There's only two kinds of music anyway - good and bad. She's a poet. She touches the soul. She got my attention and I usually live under a rock when it comes to the latest thing. Mesmerizing. Deserves more recognition. I guess because she's a true artist that doesn't need a PR agent to promote her. She's not that crass. She just loses herself in her music and let's her music do the talking and that's enough for her. How refreshing in this day and age when what you are speaks so loudly, you can't hear what anyone is saying anymore - all surface no depth. My hat's off to you girl! And yes, that stage is to small to contain you! Deserves a bigger venue, but she's a take-what-you- can-get girl - because she can take whatever she can get and make art out of it. Reminds me of those artists who will take bottle caps or zippers and make art out of them. They'll take a common object that most people throw out and make you see it in a whole new way. An artist. You go girl!
I just found her at the Grammys
@@lydiamangiardi6032Was it in Mr Robot? That’s where i found it from
Every single nuance of this performance touches me. The paino, the lyrics, the hurt in Twigs voice, her dancing.... This is art....
THAT CELLO
sometimes ... it feels like she isn't even real, just a fragment of somebody's beautiful imagination ...
I agree. Beautifully said!
People accustomed to pole dancing being an exploitative, objectifying art form do not realise how truly difficult this that's here presented is technically complex and demanding. Her form is superb
I might be mistaken but I think she was training for a long time, for this music video/song
I don't know anything about pole dancing. But I can see how high she grabs the pole, and the strength - core strength et al, that Twigs has, is phenomenal - and so controlled. Love her videos. In her 'studio' video for 'Cellophane', you can see how 'ripped' she is.
If not seen already, would urge people to give her performances on "later with Jools Holland" a look too - and see her with a sword. She is *so* talented, in so many ways. A 2020's (and earlier!) visual storyteller & singer, with the influences of Kate Bush & Bjork, *so* updated, and accessible to all..
I've tried pole dancing at one of those try out classes and it's extremely difficult. Prejudiced people don't understand the strength, power, flexibility and confidence it takes to do that. One of the most empowering things I've experienced was actually nailing one of the moves lol
She has nice feet too!
Is thier literally anything she can't do? So multi talented!
She's the perfect combination of composer, singer and performer. You can see how much she's invested in her creative process.
Years later, this remains among the best live performances on Fallon (imo #1 standalone performance on any late night show ever [and yes I've watched them all]).
This is so painful to watch to be honest. I feel like an intruder to her diary. An intruder to her life. We look up to these artists we forget they are real humans too, with real emotions. I hope nothing but the best for twigs. I feel like I already know who this song is for. Kind of. Hope they are both healing from the heartbreak.
Amazing how art can be created out of hurt. This life is mysterious.
Myra Togonon The whole album is a masterpiece mostly inspired by him.
Who is it?
@@racqynathiri856 Robby Patty the vampire
This response is everyythiing!!!
The best art comes from pain
She one the most interesting artist of this generation, if any has the chance to see her live is a MUST.
I will be on the 15th! Cant wait
I'm seeing her live in London next month !! 🥺🥺💕
Saw the Magdalene pre-show in Barcelona this summer. Absolutely mesmerizing!
First check out Caroline Polachek
Stella no
Goosebumps still. Jimmy's show doesn't even seem mature enough for something this raw, artistic, and deeply beautiful.
After I had my car accident I was listening to this song on repeat because I thought I was gonna die but I didn’t and this song gave me hope to live on with my life, every time I hear this song I’ll cry cause it remembers my car accident.
I hope that you're doing well now.
im so happy you are still here! i hope you are doing well now. much love ❤️
I had my car crash listening to Fifth Harmony :/
@@tinkerbellys LMFAO WHAT SONG
@@tay.m6640 that’s my girl - fifth harmony LMFAO!!!
She should have performed at the Grammy’s last night.
She could single handedly outshine ariana demi billie performance lmao
Crackhead Incorporated IKR
She did lol! During the Prince tribute.
technically she did but nobody handed her a mic
Gorgeous voice, face, legs, art, ... I think she would've outshined the big names.
the piano is a stage. fucking genius. what an amazing performance.
It reminded me of lady gaga pianos, same level!
The fact that her voice seems like its on the verge of collapsing?!??! OKAY TALENT. OKAYYYY EMOTION.
I love how the piano goes through an impressionist satie debussy-esque arpeggiated breakdown halfway through
it gives major satie vibes fr
im so chronically online, i don’t know if debussy-esque is ironic or not
@@gorejizzdBYE.
@@gorejizzd what a weird thing to say ab a suffix
i can almost guarantee that no one in the audience deserved this performance
Oooh, you're so elite
Daniel Houghton لا توجد أية طريقة على الإطلاق لأن يسوع هو الملك سوف يسقط يوم الجمعة ، لا يمكنني الوثوق بكاني في هذا الأمر الذي أصبح مخيباً للآمال
Right you are Your Majesty
Periodddd😭
You are DIFFERENT
That ain't dance on that poll, that's straight storytelling and art all in one twigs is so amazing....
it’s comedy
You aren't even allowed to talk at the polls, let alone dance. I'm pretty sure they can revoke your Flag sticker for that.
It really was! It pulled me in and made me feel some type of way..
Ikr she deserves everything
Idk if I’m desensitized to poles atp in culture with so much hyper sexual iSEE stuff out now but she did give a story type dance to the pole I’ve never see b4 except mabey cirque de sole
I was a life long ballerina and I am speechless. She is an artist all to herself.
great to know you were a ballerina , thanks
Ignore the haters.
Those who appreciate grace are appreciated.
she actually studied ballet so twigs has a dancer background
Goosebumps. So beautiful. This should have been a Grammy performance. This has so much emotion and pain behind it. I can hear it and wish people would just leave her alone 😔
I cannot believe this is free.
don’t give them any ideas 😩
Ew it's james. You creep
@@arolemaprarath3248 I'm Cames Jarles actually
@@iriscandy6377 Oh sorry. My apologies daddy.
@@arolemaprarath3248 it's okay, it happens
Is this the greatest performance on Jimmy Fallon ever? Yes
yikes! Only other one that comes to mind is Bon Iver when they did Holocene years ago. It’s similar to this in that the audience likely had no exposure to the musician beforehand, and all of a sudden were punched in the gut with an incredibly emotional experience (and beautiful performance).
@@KevinWidesouls bad religion by frank ocean was also one of the best
Dont disrepect all the metal and alt rocl legends who graced the stage
@@ceceruben6113 ahhahahaa
Solange's was pretty stunning too
One thing I have to say, she is amazing and how she has shown that pole dancing isn’t just a sexual dance it’s something that is beautiful and can convey a lot of emotion...
SHE WAS SNUBBED AT THE GRAMMYS. I CAN'T.
Props to Jimmy for having her on. He’s always brought on musicians you typically wouldn’t see on late night...I wonder if The Roots have a hand in that
I can see Quest being all over this.
Questlove is a consultant for Jimmy when it comes to finding artists.
Most likely. I'm not a huge fan of Fallon but the performances on his show are really amazing sometimes
Grammys if yall doesnt give her an award at least give her yall whole stage next year.
Adit Pratama I would actually watch for once.
Grammys are a joke now. I mean, it's very rare when real artists win.
Truedt, she really deserve a Grammys and somehow her uniqueness is undeniable.
Adit Pratama you really gon put twigs on the same stage as marshmallow?😅
Nah we need a new awards untouched by imitation and popular demand.. where artists control their content and we sit and admire
This by far is the best musical performance I have seen on any talk shows and I'm 54. She is stunning and her talent is amazing. I can't understand such few likes. People should have to pay for this type of performance. She made this looks absolutely effortless. Every time I hear this song it makes me want to cry. I know who she wrote this for & he didn't even deserve someone like her with this much talent, beauty, grace, and quite obviously love she had for him imho. This musical arrangement is so beautiful as well and I performed classical music for over 6 years.
Weird, because Twigs did a podcast this year where she says fans jump to a lot of the wrong conclusions. Twigs was attacked by Kristen Stewart fans, not Rob's fans. His ex has crazy fans who attack any woman he gets near, even his co-stars who he's never dated. There is no beef between Rob and Twigs. Rob says, "I''m on good terms with all my exes," and Twigs did a podcast with Julia Fox this year, 2023, where she said Rob is a sweet person and also Cellophane isn't about him. She said fans jump to a lot of wrong conclusions. Her words.
I pray for FKA Twigs, may she find someone who can hold her, cherish her, support her, and love her in the grandest of ways possible.
She is an amazingly resilient & powerful being.
I pray for your happiness, health, and for you to have love reflected back at you at every corner you meet, dear Fka Twigs
This is amazing
Loveeeee this.
so sweet 🥹
Let me do it for u...
This is amazing except she went on to date trash Shia and then Matt Healy
This SHOULD be performed at Grammy's!
That's it's
The Grammys is a joke. They don’t deserve lol
@@MAXIMILIAN390 so true
I had to do a double take: like did this woman just bring a pole onto the Jimmy Fallon show? Yes she did, and it was breathtakingly beautiful.
the last lyrics. "im not enough" please stop this is masterpiece tahliah is a masterpiece it self 😭😭 im a new fan!
Is it possible to feel your soul hurt when you watch and hear this? Like really hurt
If I ever see Robert Pattinson in the streets it’s on sight
(still stand by what I said)
I screamed- LMAOASADF
LMAOOO
This shit made me spit my drink out in my mask. Thanks guys 💀
@@5olidus5nake you now have a S O G G Y mask :)
the pfp gurl- we had to stan
I refuse to believe that she is real, no one should be allowed to be so holistically complete as an artist. What an icon.
Yeah, that dance performance was remarkable. I knew she could sing, but I didn't know she was even more talented. That was beautiful.
I was watching a radio broadcast recording and she had a whole dance routine, like she knew damn well nobody was going to see the dance but she did it for the ART
She's like Frida of music
Her commitment shines through. Lots of artists take themselves seriously (no matter the genre), but that dedication to their craft does not always translate outwardly. There is being an artist and then there is being perceived as an artist (vs an entertainer or vocalist) by the audience.
Lol that's a beautiful comment and very funny
Me hearing this song in a tiktok about borzois in a miss piggy voice 🐷
Me hearing the actual song: 🤯
kermiiii
tiktok ruins everything wtf
Me seeing this for the first time a year later is a CRIME
THIS is how you flex on your ex
You mean Robert Pattinson ?
I think this song is about him, the ending conffirmed it for me. (They're watching, they're waiting, and hoping i'm not enough) the twilight stans clearly were teally rude towards their relationship
@@francograssi6600 I read about this song in the wikipedia now in google under 'Background and recording' It is confirmed the song is about her past relationship with Robert Pattinson.
Quinn Z they were racist
Hurts Ma soul 😭
People are so afraid to be vulnerable nowadays.
S Tfu this is sooo true
Because people will eventually break our hearts
I dont think people are afraid but rather have a hard time expressing themesleves in ways for people to understand them. One of the reasons why I love fka twigs is how different she is and how she stands out with her pole dancing and how her music uses forms of glitchy and techno type noises to accompany her angelic voice.
People have always been afraid of that
exactly
My word. Young Woman, your talent is ridiculous. Over the top best vocals I have heard in many years!
America, turn on to FKA Twigs!!!
Who knew that silly little viral meme was actually this beautiful masterpiece.
I do pole and can attest to the fact that her performance is extremely difficult but she's a polefessional!! So amazing
One must have a lot of control to do that with such grace.
ive always wanted to know, does it hurt when you're spinning by your legs? like does the pole burn or pinch you?
@@ninarae3368 i think the pole rotates with u too so that's why it doesn't pinch the skin that much
So strange to see her and Jimmy next to each other. They're like from two different worlds.
Is it me or did Jimmy look mad uncomfortable lol
I felt the same way!!!
You mean America and England? I agree
@@lolopop12345 it is you, she has been invited couple of times before.
Fka is not so groundbreaking to the point shell make people uncomfortable, yall are not that different.
Can that clown get a new job yet. How embarrassing seeing him next to talented people.
no bc this is the most ethereal thing I’ve ever seen
She should do an orchestral duet album with Björk.
yes.
She actually sounds even better live, how rare is that? Incredible voice and performer. It's a shame other artists are trying to discredit & downplay her talent and work...
What other artists would those be ?
@@mizzury54 I think maybe Lana del Rey when she made those comments about fka twigs and some other women last year ? Not entirely sure though xx
Her voice is so nice live
@@evet2031 bro- that’s not what Lana said lol. People make fun of her for making similar raw art was what she said.
@@spacebar9733 they aren’t that similar tho
Her vocals are so raw and heartbreaking, the way she vocalises every emotion and then turns into a beautiful performance maintaining the emotion in every ounce of this performance is insane. She really deserves so much recognition
Preach
She is the full package. Holy shit-- full-body chills. I feel blessed to have seen this.
Not me crying once the strings came in 😭❤️❤️
I'm in my 50's and her music, style and dance reminds me of the great Kate Bush. Keep your music raw and fresh. Compared to what is being played FKA Twigs will endure. Blessings my sister.
I'm underaged/minor, and I'm so happy that I also can recognise Kate Bush in FKA Twigs! Hello!!
swear-my-pearls omg yesss
Oh man that Kate Bush is Straight demonic look into videos her dancing on skulls and vegetables it’s in reference to child murder and i don’t care if it sounds crazy it’s horrific when u start understanding the type spell you’re literally under and see I hope u do it’s sorcery
czcams.com/video/n9mHiBsLb-8/video.html
@@shanad4975 you sound insane ma
she sings as if shes playing an instrument and she dances as if she is singing shes one of very few artists that make me feel the same way great music before the mid 90s did.
Beautifully put.
Not a lie detected.
Amen ❤️
Actually the best instrumentalists sing when they play :)
She's a true warrior, fighting through all the hate and pain and shows us how we ALL can grow from experience
She is absolutely mesmerizing. It’s actually mind blowing how one person can embody so many things in the most beautiful way ever witnessed.
She's on the top 5 of the most underrated artist ever
And keep it that way
Juan Diego Why underrated? Because she’s not in our faces 24/7? Let me reassure you, she’s has build a solid career here in Europe.
Christian Eduardo she’s underrated because she’s extremely talented and deserves more than what she already has.
you think shes underrated? LOL
Clayton High yes. immensely.
this video just called told me that i’m enough in 12 different languages
Been a fan for so many years. Her fans have always known what a unique treasure she is. She has always been so much more than a musical artist. She is otherworldly.
question for you who's known her for a long time, she's not the one who sings the last part in this video right?
1:45: No one should be this good, i could not believe what i was hearing. Unreal talent.
i honest to god just had a religious experience
c b honestly this is how I feel when I listen to a lot of music. I genuinely feel like I got saved lmao
AMEN!
amen sista
Genuine talent and authenticity. Great to see true artists like her in commercial programs like Fallon
I hear the pain in her beautiful voice.
She was so much in character still, she even took out her earpiece with elegance😌❤️
and she was snubbed with her performance at the grammy’s. i’m in no way downplaying her skills or pole dancing’s validity but at a music award show, she of all people deserved to showcase her musical talent. LOVE YOU TWIGS
and they didn't show a lot of her dancing, it was as if they were afraid of her kind of honest sexuality. On the grammy's she was like the female embodiment of Prince's sexual persona.
I said the Same thing! I loved her prince tribute but I feel like she could’ve done it without usher and showcased her dance AND vocal ability like she showed here. She deserves the recognition.
Instead we got performances from the freaking Jonas Brothers and lil nas x, love them but COME ON. GRAMMYS should be the time for real PERFORMERS TO SHINE
Ong loona and twigs... taste
@@landa604 yesssss bih
@@lattelandlatteland yes
Every note she sings, every movement she makes is precise, lush and breathtaking. There is no better artist today.
jamielikesyou NONE 💯🥂
I love how slow she performs it. Way better than the record track. Although both so powerful
@Mackenzie Harper There's certainly better artists, but you're really, really making a fool out of yourself calling twigs trash/garbage.
@Mackenzie Harper Get your knees ready, for you will get to bow down before FKA twigs, you piece of nothing.
Mackenzie Harper Ok boomer
After 3 years this performance is still the best I’ve ever seen in music a true musician n performer
I loooooove FKA Twigs. Yessss. Jimmy looked like he wasn’t ready for all that lol.
did i just cry to pole dancing
ícaro ik I did
Me too, me too
I THINK WE ALL CRIED TO POLE DANCING
me too
ícaro I cried
I thought she was moving in slow motion for a moment. No, she's just that fluid. ♥️
Jesus, THAT is art, at it’s finest
Mesmerising... even after so many years.. Mesmerising. Every note, every movement. This is a masterpiece of emotion. Of love from the beginning,why we don't feel enough, to the deeps of despair, how our deepest of love still isn't enough when we've given it our all.. it's how I feel at the end of my marriag
e..
.
Grammys: and the award goes to Lil Nas X
FKA twigs: why don't I do it for you?
No disrespect to Lil Nas X but the Cellophane music video is literal art. How it lost baffles my mind.
Proof that the best doesn't necessarily win. Her video was literally the best option. His was more popular but nothing that year came close to Cellophane
@Tony Mx truee the Grammys means nothing nowadays
oof this didn't age well after montero
It sucks that people influenced by greater more thriving people get the awards instead of the actual influencers.
My interpretation of the pole scene: she began having fun, but it became too much like work. She was tired, but she got up again. She tried harder even tho she was more tired. She went upside down for him, for them. She spun circles. She did everything and gave everything until there was nothing left but to fall into a puddle of who it is you happen to be now.
Love it!
Thank you for taking the time💜
That was deep and the best explanation I’ve heard so far!
WOW YES 💛
wow that last part holy shit.
I die for FKA twigs. First time I watched this it transported me to another dimension where I cried almost the whole way through. She stirs so much emotion within me. One of my favourite singers of the modern age.
She did that,
And after she did that,
She did a little bit of THAT!
THAT is what we witnessed.
Love her music
YAAASS
lol jimmy did not know how to interact with her at the end. she is too good for this show. Also, how have people not heard of her? She's already a huge star in my mind.
IKR!!!
shes big in europe i think
That's the impression I got too. He didn't know what to say - to her or the audience so he just announced the name of the album.
I'm not going to lie I didn't know who she was until she dates Robert Pattinson & Shia Lebeouf
I thought that was cool, he just wanted to leave her in awe on her piano world. Very respectful 🙏🏽💞
I've watched this so many times. One of the most beautiful performances I've seen. Literally
B E A U T I FU L.
I’ve never seen or heard of her music before, but that was the most beautiful performance I’ve ever seen.
This has become part of my morning routine: wake up, make tea, watch the Fallon performance, get dressed, go to work. And I'm very okay with this.
Silencing her, putting her as Usher’s backup dancer during the Grammy’s Prince tribute.. appalling.
Yes absolutely disgraceful she deserves way better
No one silenced her
was she silent.. or......?
@@RAnderwill slienced 🤐🤏
she was sliced ?
I'm just discovering her now and I'm so blown away!! The sheer artistry this woman exudes in every sense. FKA Twigs deserves to be called an artist of the highest regard
Watched this video never heard her sing and in my pregnancy induced state I am bawling , this is just beautiful.
Didn't she do it for you? 😂
she was in her ZONE. simply mesmirizing. I don't think ANYONE has every pole danced on Fallon before and she made it look so easy. incredible.
this is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen
Never fails to make me cry each and every single time
I actually choked up and cried watching this
How did this video not go viral? The song alone should've done it... her vocals are sad and haunting yet stunning beautiful.
Then she takes pole-dancing, which some consider lowbrow, and turns it into art. She is a true artist.
If a painting sounded like this, I would watch it dry for a million years.
flippeditude what a beautiful comment
That’s a dumb analogy
Thomaharadja h8terz everywhere i swear
@@thomaharadja5307 And yet it works
flippeditude it really does not
It is a clumsy assortment of words
And the only meaning that could be derived from it is not flattering
I mean that was f*@king beautiful 🥺 her voice, and how elegant she was. Not only is she strong physical but vocally. She’s a true artists and does NOT get enough credit
Thank you Ms Piggy and Borzoi dogs for making me aware of FKA Twigs
The crowd was absolutely silent did you hear it
If this is what she does for Jimmy Fallon I can’t even imagine the incredible performances she has planned for the Grammys
Here after the Grammys, have to say I’m incredibly disappointed in the Grammys for not letting this ethereal goddess perform at least one of her songs and instead making her dance backup to Usher doing a mediocre tribute to Prince
The borzoi dog meme got me here
Same Fr 😂
THIS IS ART! vocals, body language and the drama was there. she was truly honest wiyh this performance
I love how she can make any stage, her theater.
fka twigs: dances on a pole
me: *cries*
It hits you
Same same
😂😂😂 same
This is truly one of the most beautiful performances I’ve ever seen in my life...
Such a deeply moving and graceful, strong performance. Her capacity to float on the pole like water is other worldly. She is incredible. Such beauty that emerged from a difficult place of suffering
yup i’m buying the record. this is one of the most beautiful performances i have ever seen in my enitre life...
