St. Vincent - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

14:14 - ".. the verses are for you, the chorus is for everybody else.." Wow, that's some solid advice!

st vincent should write the next james bond theme tune

Cheryl is so genuinely into music she's the perfect host for the bigger acts on KEXP live, she's warm and totally un-showbizzy. the artists respond to that. St. Vincent was a bit testy and Cheryl had to work it but so what, SV's a talent and gets a pass. Really great performance especially the last two tracks.

Don’t you think that creative people are very interesting? They are fun to listen to and their perspective on life is so out of this world. Opposite of boring.

The stripped acoustic versions really highlight the beautiful melodies and her great voice.

im an old punkrocker,, and i see how this is a very honest girl with her art music, choreography, and fashion....im new to her, i just heard this, and the npr tiny desk, and have gone backwards the last couple days...but im completely smitten. I hear of course the obv bowie/t-rex/PJ harvey/Kills?even dick dale in her work, but also PHRANC from LA, X from LA, peaches, iggy, gitane demone.... and many others. i appreciate her integrity, and her near genius music and art and coreography and fashion...of course not unlike bowie or nico and the velvets. AND all of this through the filter of her family....Aunt and Uncle in the NW..... GO ANNIE! this is YOUR time....I love how you take the early punk asthetic, and use the big machine for your advantage opening eyes, ears, and hearts through honesty....very commendable! and this nobody is loving it! GO GO GO annie! this is YOUR TIME...and by the way those signature guitars look SO fantastic....one of the best ive seen maybe EVER? you are a special artist Annie

Damn !!! so cute ♥ Los Ageless 2:37 New York 6:47 Slow Disco 20:46 Cruel 23:52

This is what talent sounds like.

i cant stop thinking about st. vincent. she's everything I've ever wanted to be. Just this completely fuckin' INSANELY INTELLIGENT, kick-ass rock star guitarist and vocalist. Everything she says and does blows my mind. I had noticed her guitars from this album and string of performances for the past year and only thought "man she really loves that guitar. Whats the story?" she CREATED IT? are you KIDDING ME? She makes me feel like it's not too late to do the things I've always wanted to do. I want to be smarter, I want to be a god damn rock star.

I feel like when Annie talks, exactly what she wants to say is right on the the tip of the tongue.

Congratulations to the host. So nice and pleasant, intelligent and respectful questions, you can tell she loves music.

Cheryl Waters is simply the best

As much as I appreciate Miss Clark for her songwriting and guitar genus, it's just awesome to see her rock barre chords and her amazing voice. So simple, yet powerful!

Jesus what a massive talent, accoustically get such a prince vibe but wholly original. St Vincent has the funk.

slow disco performance was incredible oh my god

A true artist writing great songs. Cruel played acoustically like that is amazing.

Cheryl is digging the hell out of getting a full blast solo version of "Cruel" played right into her face. Amazing!

I find it interesting how the haters come out of the woodwork with no consequences to their words. They are not famous, they do not have Grammy Awards sitting in their home’s. They have not designed a new guitar that is selling like no other guitar in Ernie Ball history. They have not produced five LPs or gone on multimillion dollar tours. But hey, they are expert haters. Why are people getting so ugly these days?

That new york version. Damn

I have this album and I love it. The sign of a great performer is being able to do it with the minimum of backup. Annie does it to perfection. Despite her guitar going out of tune this version of New York is my favourite. Thanks to KEXP.
