     This is a live version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JMSkcCV790
     
     And now imagine performing this song with absolutely no support from the fucking consumer audience – and still achieving THAT intensity. Then you may get a glimpse of what a splendid artist Patti Smith is.

     And this happens when you have a supporting and carrying crowd: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJjE5oS3Dcw
     
     In the rendition in the post above Patti Smith had to fill and thus build the space for the song due to the absence of the audience engagement whereas in this clip the crowd fills the space and Patti Smith can turn to actually radiating calm, vastness, intensity, and passion. More modulation is possible, and the song soars.
