Hey Kids! Check out some ancient history on Youtube.....click here!
I love this...remember well the copious amounts of hairspray I had to endure....I was trying not to look like I didn't know the chords on the piano...of course I'm playing along with the record....and lip synching...horrors! But I have to say it's nice to see it resurface. Even if you can't see any orchestra behind me!

It's great to see you on YouTube Beth - time the world knew what it's been missing! After your recent gigs, 'All I Have' will always remind me of dear Paul Walters, and I'm endlessly grateful to him for introducing me to your music when he played 'Sand & Water' on Terry's show back in '97. Can it really be ten years?!!!

I love seeing you play this song. It is one of my favorites. I've downloaded all your music I could find on iTunes, but what would be wonderful would be sheet music for your songs so I could play them on the piano.
Judith there is a BNC 'Greatest Hits & More' song book with music for guitar and piano. It includes 'All I Have' and 'Sand And Water' and other earlier songs. It is occasionally available on eBay or second hand from Amazon. Took me ages to find it, but it is out there if you persevere! Good luck. Helen
VH1 Vspot has 3 videos, all of which I hope will find their way to youtube. It would be a waste if they didn't.
"All I Have"
"I Keep Coming Back to You"
"Walk My Way"
One persons "ancient history" is another persons "classic". The videos of "All I Have" and "I Keep Coming Back to You" feature Beth playing instruments with vocals, the "lip synch and hairspray", if you will. Yet they are both excellent showcases nonetheless. The "Walk My Way" video, which I had never seen until a few days ago, ramps up closer to the classic music video concept. It features Beth not only singing about joy and pain in the same sentence, but expressing it through a simultaneous "stairway" scene as well as interaction with her supporting musicians. Not everyone can sing, but almost everyone has been in a simular situation. Coupled with Beth's masterful facial expressions in the video (Joy and Pain), I simply think this video is, in a word, A-W-S-O-M-E ! It doesnt hurt that this was the first song of Beth's that I ever heard (And instantly liked)
