The musicians get old but the music never does. This is fine, fine wine.
Just gorgeous that warm soul in her voice, she sings from her heart and it will always be gorgeous
Damn, what a great saying
i seen her sing this live at alabamas charity concert in fort pabe bama
So true
Probably the best sad song ever written. Wonderful live performance.
This and “Rainy Days And Mondays”.
The pain is universal.
scott - Also love :In the Arms of the Angels" that was used by SPCA.
@@ericlind6581 and Superstar, by the Carpenters (but check out Bette Midler's version too...czcams.com/video/DWeRkxPfvg8/video.html) - just brings back memories of that first, VERY broken heart!! 😢🥺😭 But Bonnie definitely takes the prize... SO much soul - NO one can rock the Blues like she does!! SO much nuance to her voice (and to her guitar playing - check out some of her other live videos*) - she is SUCH a treasure!! ...SO Real!!! [I strongly recommend Love Has No Pride!!]
Hands down.
I swear, Bruce Hornsby can make a piano....cry. He NEVER ceases to amaze me.
Roger that. His work with the Grateful Dead is under appreciated in my opinion.
@@BelovedChatter Yes, and all of his work. What a great person he is. Deserving of Rock HOF mention as well. We got Todd Rundgren in this year, anything is possible.
@@Arturo-sm1tb Todd Rundgren got in finally I didn`t know that about time.
So true. Some musicians can emote through their instruments, and Hornsby is definitely one of them.
I recently listened to an old Journey song, Send Her My Love, and Neil Schon does the same thing with an electric guitar (not an instrument you think of as emotional lol) in that song. The guitar solo sounds almost wistful.
Loving Will Lee on bass as well ❤
It is 3:20 in the morning, listening to this and Tears are Falling. If you have ever felt something for someone even once you would completely understand why. Nothing more needs to be said
How she doesn't cry each time she sings this is amazing. Such a powerful song.
I saw her sing this song in Boston a few years ago and she did have tears in her eyes
Every time I hear it I cry, so she doesn't have to.
Maybe because she’s a professional entertainer singing a song that was written by other people
@@fuckthevaccine2160 As you said she's a pro and as such she's totally living her song, no matter if she wrote it or not she puts her own emotions into it.
Moreover, who's ever loved has almost certainly already felt what she sings here.
Been there, done that. How she puts this into words, touches your soul.
No one can sing this like Bonnie Raitt. No one...
pat barrow I like the way she sing it but prince also did an good job singing it to
George Michael does a decent cover, but no, nobody sings it like Bonnie.
Truth.
Bonnie Raitt so richly deserving of this honour. She is eternal.
Who can't relate to this song?
One of the best ever written.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written...ever arranged...ever recorded, and in one take for the vocals no less.
This rendition is so soulful. Everyone in the band is amazing. But of course Hornsby on the keys and Bonnie's soulful, bluesy voice, are sublime.
Bonnie and that piano guy!…Awe man!!! I’ve listened to a lot of renditions, but hers is the BEST! I first heard of this song through her…WOW!!!💕❤️💃
Bruce Hornsby was playing Piano. That was Paul Schafer playing keys. Small difference I know but those heavyweights have to be respected.
Bonnies rendition- true soul. And Bruce- plays that piano with soul.
Heart wrenching. One of the best songs ever written.
Indeed ! 🙏❤️🩹
maybe one of the greatest Katherine - totally agree and maybe this is the best version I have heard
No one sings her song better than her. Not Adele, no one.
George Michael is a close second for me.
Teddy Swims has a REALLY GOOD version. But Bonnie ....
To be her song, she would have to have written it. She didn’t
@@ajfrompa1726Whitney Houston didn't write the songs she sang, but people considered those her songs. Bonnie sang this first, so ...
Except for George Michael.....
21 years later still makes me cry
She is singing in a Willie Nelson laid back jazz style that shows versatility in her vocals. Kudos to the musicians not being thrown by her restyling in this performance.
Bruce Hornsby & Paul Schafer on the keys...respect
Totally agree about Hornsby but what is Shafer even playing? He always tries to showboat and make it about him. He's nothing more than a sound effects man half the time.
WHAT A VOICE!
the phrasing in this version is UNREAL!
She absolutely still has a beautiful voice.
She makes me cry for the loves I've lost and all the loves each of us has lost. Thanks Bonnie for healing the ache.
THIS is music. Pure, simple, and hauntingly beautiful.
Bonnie Raitt has never disappointed singing this live that I've ever seen
I absolutely love Bonnie and she just gets better like a fine wine..I've listened to her since her first album..truly an amazing woman with a beautiful voice...✌💜🌻
Hornsby can dance around any melody. Dude’s a genius.
This song always reminds me of the love i lost, and it was exactly as Bonnie says it, "cause i can't make him love me if he won't....he can't make his heart feel something it won't..." this song goes out to all those who have been fortunate enough to experience one sided unrequited love...nonethless, i'll always love him, and remember him, even though it's just a blurred vision of his image... Blessings and love to all...xoxo
You nailed it. " blurred vision", except for his smile.
@@bethseptember8 thank you dear...Much love to you xoxo
❤
Reality of love not reciprocated is a freedom within itself.
This is my personal anthem. Thank God for Bonnie Raitt.
Same for ALOT of us I think!!
Bonnie's heartache in this dirge of a song, haunting , from a past love, who , in reality, did not truly love her enough to commit to her, I hope you found a new love Ms. Bonnie.
As a man, this song always gave me permission to cry... also love Bruce Hornsby.
You always know its her and thats what makes a great voice.
Her voice just melts my heart. What a talent.
How can you not feel gutted every time you listen to this song
She tugged on my heartstrings ,on hearing this for the Fist time❤ God Keep You HERE ,A LONGTIME Bonnie ❤ John
"And I will give up this fight" at 2:58 ....god that is powerful, wow ... such a devastatingly sad song my god
I know I can’t make him love me, but I love him too much to give up this fight
This song makes me want to give someone a hug.
One of the most heartfelt songs of our time - haven't heard anything that can top it.
Fred collier not for nothing I also love the way prince sing it to
joni Mitchell both sides (later version)
Prefer her voice here than to when it was recorded. Something special in that little rasp
What a lady, nothing but class.
Thanks Bonnie Raitt for making my heart ❤ sing. This is one of my favorite songs 🎵 of all time. It's so relevant more than ever especially in 2024. There's so many hearts ❤ that are unfulfilled. 😢😢 People are still looking for love 💘.
Sad song , sung from the heart Bonnie
I seek out this song - and this performance - when I’m living moments where I feel this but can’t say it out loud.
💛
So beautiful. ‘Nuff said…
I read that when she recorded this song, she basically did it in one take. I also read that the writers of the song had written a different part for the piano but Bruce Hornsby improvised on it and just took it to another level. What incredibly talented artists ❤.
True
I heard today that the writer of the song was formerly an American footballer [one of the big ones built like trucks].
One of the best voices of all time 🙌
The Best is Karen Carpenter
No one does it like Bonnie and no one plays like Bruce 🌺💜😊🌟
Yes, song makes me cry n say im sorry... My love to her. She has a place in my heart
SHALOM ISRAEL 🤝🏼🤔😎😍😉🤝🏼
This is the most beautiful and the saddest song in this entire world. I cry each time I listen to it.
This is beautiful. I have always loved her music and she sounds amazing in this video. She should have been inducted a long time ago but glad she has been recognized for her talent.
Showmanship that will never be replicated.
Still just as soulful and meaningful as the first time she performed it. Still requires the same amount of Kleenex still.❤❤
Wow I really like how she sang it. So soulful, raspy and delicate at the same time. Very very beautiful ❤️
66 this year ,I remember when that song came out ,fell in love again , she can still give it her all like she always did never afraid to turn it up
there are no words for the heart in this song and Bonnie lets her heart and all its hurt hang out
I still shiver hearing her sing ….
geez. unreal. so gooooodddd.
One of the best songs ever
Excellent work of the musicians of course with the powerful voice of Bonnie Raitt. The piano of Bruce Hornsby sounds incredible in this masterpiece.
Wow Hornsby is off his ass in this performance. Very very talented.
Have never seen a singer so into her lyrics, such as during this performance by Bonnie. Unbelievable how connected she is. How different than the 100 various pop singers of today who are singing for a paycheck.
I just discovered this song and Bonnie Raitt, unknown in France, I can't understand how it is possible. Both are truly beautiful
One of her best. Powerful vocals.
She still sounds good. Quite a feat after all of these years. Hats off to you, Ms. Raitt.
Love her voice, it sounds better than ever. Ando the song it's wonderful.....
This song hits home my boyfriend of 15 yrs left me for a older rich women who gave him everything. Broke my heart , it was hard to move on it took 4 yrs.
You try your hardest. . And it still does not happen.. addiction can push you to continue.. love is deep .. it can be one-sided.. and that's the suffering beyond words.. ❤️
2024, still amazing. 👍👏
This is absolute music perfection.. Nothing can improve this performance. A truly magical moment
Daaaaaang!!!! That high note was wow!!!!! Such an amazing and beautiful voice
Bonnie & Bruce 2 of the best
What a gift to listen to this beautiful melody. Times like this I truly appreciate that the universe is great and I am very very grateful ❤
Omg this song and her voice! I just can’t!!!!!! 🙌🏽😭🙌🏽
Sublime performance...
That voice gives me chills!!!
What a beautiful performance of a perfect song.
Beautiful song. She put her soul, grit, pain and love into it. It is definitely one of the best songs ever made.
Probably the saddest and at the same time most beautiful song and lyrics I've ever listened to. No one would embody this song better, more authentic than she does. If she had written only one song in her life - it had to be this one. It needed to be brought into this world. Kudos and accolades, Ms. Raitt, congratulations galore!
Bonnie is a gorgeous woman with tons of talent
This is my favorite song ever...I has been hearing for years, different live versions, woow...my respects Mrs Bonnie...great talent voice..the band is wonderfully acopled..I feel like I'm a peace of heaven with this song.
Man, she was feeling it!
I relate to this song.
There's a girl I'm in love with. I knew she didn't feel the same way.
I figured she deserved to know. I told her. We had a good conversation about it.
I just pretended to be cool about it, while in fact I was, and still am, shattered.
That was a month ago. Since then everything went downhill.
It's just difficult to put your feelings away and stil try to be there for her when she needs me.
The night I broke I listened to this song and I just felt like my feelings deserved to be there as this isn't my fault.
It has been over 30 years and it never completely goes away. I eventually realized or told myself I loved my idealized fantasy of who she was and not her. That helps, sometimes.
@@armadillotoe
Thank you!
Much love to you 😊
I so miss real music, thank u
A Powerful Song! She has an Amazing voice
There are songs that are just perfect, and this is one of them. You can remake them, reimagine them, but you can’t make it better.
Happy 72nd Birthday today Bonnie💖💖💖💖
Bonnie has got it going on. Love her. Very cool
My eyes get moist and it warms my heart each and every time I listen to this song.
Nick of Time is a masterpiece.
"The Glow" is the masterpiece like "Nick of Time" not a bad cut on it. A real sleeper,, as it didnt make the cut to CD in the beginning of that technology. I think its her best offering.
This song is still Breathtaking and Amazing and True
Its how the music starts with the synth but then the piano hits and bang you’re on a different place. Then Bonnie sings and everything is amazing
That voice never gets old
Wow, Bonnie voice still sound exactly the same. I truly wished she’d actually sang the song exactly like her original recording, instead of just talking through some parts of the song. Oh well, I guess we can’t always get what we want. I still loved it though, because it’s always been one of my favorite songs.
What a beautiful voice.
Bonnie Raitt,You've still got it girl.And Bruce Hornsby is magical too.
Timeless and undiminished by time--the song and the awesome artist Bonnie Raitt.
I miss this music and era. Simply timeless. ❤
watch what's in her eyes, Authentic
she went deep for that performance
What a great singer!
This is one of the finest songs ever written, thank you Bonnie Raitt. Great vocal.
Bruce Hornsby played beautifully and was fully featured (btw. he started as Linda Ronstadts pianist) but yet again Bonnie missed the chance to demo her lead guitarist /slide guitar mastery on an important occasion of record. Like many great women she is naive about self promotion/ getting full recognition for real talent. This was definitely the place for that.
Bruce Hornsby fighting back tears at 0:26... you can tell he really feels that riff and sprinkles his sound on it... so awesome
Horseshit.
@@PaintHerWhite Sorry you disagree...
What.. lmaooo
Give me anything that comes out of Bonnie ‘s mouth and lung’s !!!! So love this LADY !!!!!!!!
