Anyways I really like it, I like the display of strength in between the frail crying scenes. Was also kinda surprised when I saw that she never sang it at any of her tours.
I was hoping to get more feedback on this, so thanks!

Anyway, I agree. There is something so powerful about those scenes and so uncomfortable. I can't help but kind of love it.

And no kidding, I didn't even realize she hadn't performed it during any tours! However, I did find this live:
