Just below is a beautifully done live performance by Lianne La Havas for the BBC's 6 Music 10th Anniversary TV special. There is a nice rawness that gets down to who Lianne La Havas is in this performance, that set her apart from her studio recordings. After having seen her twice in LA, she is the real deal live. She's not faking it and doesn't need big production. She connects, I believe, because she's been there, through the pain. She has told the story, at live shows I have attended, as well as found online, of her broken heart that drove her to pick up the guitar and write her songs. Her tasty songs are proof that a broken heart is a top fuel of champion songwriters, yet again.
