Liberty Dunworth "Watch Tori Amos cover two Sinead O’Connor songs in tribute" https://www.nme.com/news/music/watch-footage-tori-amos-covers-two-sinead-oconnor-songs-in-tribute-3474641
トーリ・エイモスは７月26日の自らのライヴにおいて、シネイド・オコナーを偲んで、彼女の”I Am Stretched On Your Grave”と”Three Babies”をカヴァーした。
At her recent show in San Francisco on Wednesday evening (July 26), she paid her respects to the late musician, by covering two of her tracks: ‘Three Babies’ and ‘I Am Stretched On Your Grave’.For the latter, Amos transformed the more upbeat original track into a more sombre and emotive version – stripping it back so it was only performed with vocals and a piano. Following her drawing the song to a close, she performed a seamless transition into another song by the Irish icon, ‘Three Babies’.
Both tracks are taken from O’Connor’s breakout album ‘I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got’, which was released in 1990. Check out fan footage of the performances below.
Speaking to the crowd before the rendition of her own track ‘Crucify’ earlier in the show, she praised the singer for her courage when it came to speaking out against abuse in the Catholic Church. “This is a person who’s powerful, who wrote incredible music,” she said (via Consequence*2 ). “And we honour her tonight.”
