Regina Spektor, off Begin to Hope. This is a live performance, pretty good recording:

This newest disc is getting some promotion (I’ve seen her on talk shows and stuff) so hopefully she will start getting the recognition she deserves. I’ve got four of her CD’s and I love them all.

There’s no one like Tori Amos… this is a short song off Boys for Pele, and it’s rare to see a live performance with an actual brass section…

I remember when I bought this CD, at a barnes and noble bookstore, the cashier chick saw it, pointed at it, and said “YES,” like she was so excited to see it, and wanted to know how many times I’ve seen Tori in concert (the answer was “just once”). She’s got some rabid fans out there…

Some fan-made video for Rasputina’s “Dig Ophelia” off the Thanks for the Ether disc. The downside is, no Melora. The upside is, good sound quality.

I love the Rasputina version off Thanks for the Ether. I pretty much like everything off Thanks for the Ether, actually. All I could find on youtube was this live performance, which isn’t of very good quality (first line of the song is chopped off, for one thing):

Here’s a video of the original artist singing it, which I’d embed here, except the uploader has disabled that.

I thought I’d be in for a wild time searching for “bush” and “swallowed” but it turns out I got what I wanted right away :-)

This is another single from Bush’s Razorblade Suitcase disc.

By Bush from their sophomore Razorblade Suitcase CD. This band made me laugh, because some of their songs were pretty good, but a lot of their following was girls that liked the pretty frontman.

This was their “artsiest” video… comes across kinda heavy-handed if you ask me. But I like the song.

Nirvana, from In Utero, 1993. There’s a music video, but I didn’t immediately spot it on youtube, and I kinda like this live performance:
