  • She sang from the very pit of her soul!

  • will always love some janis:)

    

  • IF ONLY WE MIGHT FIND MORE OF THESE SOULFULL LADYIES THE WORLD WE MIGHT ALL SMILE AGAIN MY SWEET JANIS WE MISS YOU GarPeteY@YAHOO.COM

    MELISSA FLOWERS IN HAIR KEEP SINGING LOVED IT!

  • volume way too low

  • hi janis ,keep on touch for later.....enjoy

  • Is there anyone who has come close to this sort of talent since her? I can't think of anyone... certainly no one today.

  • oh god, to play at a place like that. No one can even move! They're stunned

  • me encanto!

  • i think its interesting to compare drug free kids who lived before Prozac and haldol with todays psych med inspired kids. its true the audio was experimental.. they didn't know about decibels and hearing response curves.. or maybe they knew but ignored it..

    she makes the audience feel that if she could see how much they can love, that they could win her with the feeling she gives them with her songs about desperate need for affection. god i want to show her the powerful feelings in my mind

  • It is may be, pardon me, surely, the best singer female I know !

  • Janis will always be my Idol,, She had a lot of Soul & A beautiful voice!! She is one of a kind & I can't wait to see her in Heaven :) RIP with the rest of the angels !!

  • My god!...The audience is just sitting there...looking polite but not engaged...like they didn't realize what they were seeing...

  • A powerful woman vocalist. A bright star whose light shone too briefly in this world. RIP Janis. Thanks for posting this gem. BTW, the sound volume is perfect.

  • What a Talent!!

  • Wish I still smoked weed...

  • Janis Joplin light years aheah of All of THEM!!! I hope she learned for the next Incarnation!!

    I Loved you Janis Joplin!!!

  • wwwgreatbuyoutletscom wwwtopfuelsavercom lying awake at night, sometimes-not reslessly, but serenely, waitng for sleep-the quiet re-establishes itself, piece by piece; all the broken bits, all the frgments of it w've been so busily dispering all day long. It re-establishes itself, an inward quiet, like this outward quiet of grass and trees. It fills one; it grows, it becomes more perfect; it is beautiful and terrifying, as well as beautiful. For one's alone in the crystal and there's no support

  • It's so sad that she died so young. I would have loved to see her in person. Maybe in sprit someday. I get the chills real bad each time I here her voice. If you listen to a lot of her music that she wrote you could tell her life would end soon.

  • Awesome !!!!

  • there are a lot of female singers and then there is JANIS JOPLIN nothing more to say period.

  • Janis i will always LOVE you

  • See how she holds her hand over her mouth sometimes? Like she's playing an harmonica...she really know her voice was an instrument.

  • @elduath Maybe it was in abashment at her caterwauling. Y'all ought to educamate y'selves: Google 'Arlene Smith' for a wonderful start.

  • @strandwolf .Arlene Smith's voice wasn't exactly something to write home about!

  • Beyond incredible. Nobody like her, Before. Since. Ever.

  • i'm not sure that the sound being so low on this video is a bad thing, although silent would be better.

  • Great clip ~ she's looks good in this!

  • WHYYYYYYYYYY do you say this is excellent quality??????????

  • Another one that it really hurt to lose. She could put so much into a song.

  • Happy Birthday Janis, love and miss you babe!

    I have listen to the Chantells and The Shangri-Las, they're doing a good job on this song.

    But this version of Janis is sung with pure passion like all of Janis songs.

  • The Three Degrees version hands down :D

  • Happy Birthday Janis!!! I love your music

  • great!!

  • What great quality & excellent performance. Thank you.

  • That girl gave it all and the brief pan of the audience tells it all in their rapt attention.Such intensity you can't turn away. Be at peace Janis for you are cradled in love.

  • This is the difference between a woman singing and a girl!!

    There is no one anymore with this kind of depth of feeling.

    Susan Tedeschi is very good and works really hard at it but Janis was still "IT"

  • The sound on this is low to me and I can't turn the volume higher.

  • @bd9598 I'd be deaf is I were you.

  • @SixtiesPopGold Is this even english? You said, I'd be deaf is I were you. What the heck does that mean.

  • @SixtiesPopGold The volume is still low.

  • @bd9598 Then do something else instead of being here and complaining!

  • @SixtiesPopGold Hey SIXTIESPOPGOLD! could i download it a maybe bump up the audio and repost on my channel?

  • @TheSuperFleetwood Well, I don't own the rights myself, but I'd never do that myself.

  • @SixtiesPopGold i wanted to ask before i took lol

  • @TheSuperFleetwood you still don't have a permission

    from the uploader.

  • @SixtiesPopGold call it as you see it LOL

  • @bd9598 Hey dingushead maybe you should get a surround sound system with a RECEIVER...I can crank this shit up full blast. Step your audio game up.

  • Videos of this quality and clarity make me feel like she's still touring the country

  • One of a kind and vastly under rated. No one today and few in the past can hold a candle to her. She was a female Robert Plant or Tim Buckley.

  • I don't know why...this reminds me of a Godzilla movie.

    Godzilla loved Janis Joplin.

  • My #1 songs of all time!!! No other has or will ever have the talent that Janis did and this video prooves that! R.I.P.

  • Words cant describe this beautiful voice and performance by such a great person. RIP Janis Joplin

  • Ever since I first heard her on an old vinyl in 1968, she's given me chills down my spine, and it's no different now!

  • Look at her lay it all out there

  • Love you Janis ... Thanks for the kiss .... Thanks for the memory I will carry the rest of my life

  • Why do you look so tired and sad Janis ?

    I m sure you knew your walk here on earth would be short and so you gave everything you had. The way you sing makes me feel like if you only sung to me but the reality is that you are singing to the whole world, for the humanity, and probably, for the eternity !!

    I love you Janis Joplin, Requiescat In Pace

  • @mowgli595 ush, dont worry anymore

  • God we still love you Baby in our hearts forever J A N I S

  • wow, she gives me chills still. Love you lady. 

  • Ar musik-se a lak ho korf, ho kalon hag ho ene da dridal !

  • Sorry but nobody does it better than Arlene Smith.

  • Comment removed

  • Beautiful quality of the video. Thanks for share it ;)

  • I love the Chantel's version.....had no idea the Shangri-Las did this one too! Wow...gotta hear that. But Janis was the first I ever heard to do this song. This album (Kozmic Blues) was one of the first I ever had. Seems like yesterday....gosh Im gettin up there in age hehe!! But this album means a whole lot to me personally. To a lot of people. Makes me FEEL so much and still to this day makes me cry sometimes. People just love Janis. Thanks for posting. Subbed ya btw. ~Peace "Jenny"

  • my idol...

  • there is nothing that she did that did not blow your mind

  • I LOVE YOU JANIS

  • Just awesome!!!!

  • janis joplin was gewoon een geweldige artieste jammer good things dont last long

  • Just awful ..she strangles the life out of every song she touches ...trying to make every verse / note an overblown epic ...Dusty Springfield understood the importance of light and shade something Joplin never understood .

  • @nolslifegren why did you watch the video then?

  • @Daveparts ; I was hoping she wouldnt strangle it ...

  • @nolslifegren .."...importance of light and shade something Joplin never understood."...I think she understood it but she rejected it for heart felt soul...instead of being a 'stylist'..

    You want a lounge singer take yr UK 2nd grader...go ahead...but you want Rockn Soul...its Janis

  • @morningman33 ; There are / were better singers ...

  • @nolslifegren pointless post..."we all have opinions.."..Her'es one..Dusty Springfield was a nobody compared to this icon of Rockn Soul..

  • @morningman33 ; Lol ..and you are entitled to that viewpoint ...misguided as it is : )

  • Comment removed

  • @nolslifegren Baby you have not ears...OMG!!!! Listen to accurately....Light and shade...She did it And believe me listen with your soul while she sings....Little girl blue...Go on!!!

  • @Folkies54 ; Lol ..well we all have our opinions : )

  • maybe excelente video con un buen mensaje ...me encanta

  • this song is amazing, in the minut 2,16 the note she make is the best of the best, em posar els pels de punta..., for me the best singer of all the time, a rose for you

  • Janis, you are the soul of the blues----just beautiful, girl----what an awesome performance! You inspire, always------------------------­-----

  • Wow, the emotional look she had on her face, watching the band, during those small moments, were just precious & I'm so happy to have seen this side of her. Just amazing.

  • Gracias dios x haber puesto semejante ANGEL x mi camino .

    Y grcias janis x estar en el

  • Grcias dios x haber puesto semejante ANGEL x mi camino .

    Y grcias janis

  • THE CROWD WAS IN SHOCK!!!!!! THEY DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO PROCESS THAT KIND OF TALENT. SHE MAY HAVE BEEN THE BEST SINGER OF ALL TIME. MALE FEMALE DOESN'T MATTER...MEADOW LARKS ARE ENVIOUS.

  • She's beautiful in this video. I lover outfit and her performance is amazing.

  • With the exception of some mezzo soprano divas in opera, Janis is the greatest female singer ever...It's not fair to compare opera to the blues and rock; it's just that her caliber of the kind of music she blessed us with is on par with soprano singers. And I was named after Janis. She was mesmerizing and her voice had so much range. Singers today, like the epitome of the bad example, Taylor Swift, are an incredible joke in comparison to these real artists.

  • WOW... So long since ive heard this and still come to the same conclusion.. what a voice, what soul, what awsome talent... and reminds me that it was a sad day when si cowell came along knowing nothing at all about proper decent music to poison young minds with marketing rubbish music... RIP janis you one of the old best alwats be.

  • @thehotpointdave --->Happy Birthday Janis! 1-19-12 Through a whole lot of Research, with alot of Time and Prayer, by both of us known as good researchers, and my hubby known for his research and speaking engagments at major Universities, gatherings and churches, I think I may have found my maternal Mother. I love My MOM, WOW! This Makes my heart So Glad that Her Amazing Voice is still SOO Very Popular!

  • @SeekTruthNOW As an adopted child, I've missed the chance of knowing Her, & I truly Wish I could've known Her, as she was forced to give me up. I know if She were alive today, she would feel and truly*say the same for me, her only child and daughter... There are 2-songs she was able to sing to me (her baby) "Maybe",,, & especially "My Farewell". My mom was clever enough and strong-willed enough, to sneak these songs past her manager.

  • @SeekTruthNOW I know that I will someday soon see Her in Heaven, and the wounds this old-world has left upon both our souls, will all be healed and we'll be whole, by Heaven's Light of unity within Love, and alas we'll be Free. I too love to Sing; it must be a dna*thing! I'm so happy about all these (still) millions of fans of Her's!!

  • @SeekTruthNOW And I can only pray that they'll love Freedom, as much as I know we both do... And if thee love for truth be found in them, they will meet us both upon that shore of Glory, and hear the 2 of us singing Amazing Grace, just for them. I'll reveal in the day, and patiently wait, for that precious meeting, so very long awaited, by the both of Us. Thank Yah!

  • @SeekTruthNOW What-A-Day, for all of us children & parents, to finally be with our beloved ones, and share together how we've learned to trust in Yahweh, for the Arrival of this forever mending day. HE Can Never Fail, for He Has A Father's Heart too, and for Us`All!!! Sincerely, Autumn Joplin Yssachar ;-)

  • was reminded of this song again after watching an episode of freaks and geeks.

  • The Chantells over this version, has to be your taste in music. There is talent and then there is real talent. Her version is felt, not just lyrics on a page....

  • This is as heavy as it gets folks. When Janis sang, she got into the moment..totally inside her soul and then poured it out to us through her kick ass voice. Riveting performance and I love her outfit! She looks really good here. :)

  • @PsychLion You said it man, she was the best.

  • wooooow que buena cancion

  • i want to date janis joplin she is so hot =))

  • Pearl of all pearls  sweet janis

  • OMG WOW

  • Absolutely beautiful, she is so so beautiful

  • que hermosa canción, impresionante janis la mejor!, siempre estaré enamorado de ella

  • que hermosa canción, impresionante janis la mejor!

  • I'm from San Francisco and Janis is in my blood, but I gotta say her diva style doesn't seem right for this song. Maybe because I keep hearing The Chantels in my head as she sings. Arline Smith's take on the song is pure heartrending teenaged angst. They are coming from two different worlds, Arline belts it but never goes over the top as Janis does from beginning to end. That's what I like.

  • SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!!!!

  • q belleza d musica

  • i love janis joplins spin on this song,i also like the original its just a really good song.

  • no one can come  close to her

  • Absolutely beautiful. A like this if you smoked a cigarrete while listening to this.

  • @TheCagaGrosso had to thumbs down i was drinking southern comfort

  • @TheCagaGrosso Amy Winehouse in raw form...

  • @TheCagaGrosso still smokin'!

  • @TheCagaGrosso Smoking all right...Have a ball.

  • Still and forever in my heart.

  • I still can't believe she's gone. Its so amazing to me that we can all see her any time we want tho, is times like this were i thank God there's youtube!

  • @TheBatman2194

  • Really love this song...

  • Que Barbara!!!!
