Joan Baez - I Want To Know What Love Is (1985)

[DFoxHope]

I so agree with the Positive Comments above-The complainers of this, well you Just Obviously don't know what Talent, Immense Talent that She & both of them) brought to that moment in time & space-If you only knew what it took to bring this together..wow BRAVO!!!!!♥D

[ynnhojhairam]

She Is Great Here.. LOVE her interpretation <3

[MuscularDad60]

The ONLY song I've ever heard Baez sing that I hated. Definitely it's the song, but it doesn't fit her - the duet doesn't work for her and I'd rather hear one of 500 other songs she could do 10 times as well.

[hammerman7777]

She ruins every song she covers...Sucks!

[Jimtimpop]

Nice performance of an amazing song.

[kimbo1950]

I like both Santana & Foreigner, so this is a treat, a good one. It is different from the original, but hey, Joan still sounds great, doesn't she! I like it!

XXXDDDDDD OH MY GOD

[Nilsosmar]

I'm puzzled by the negative comments about this video. it's a different style for Baez, and I'm glad I watched to it. She brings her precision and accuracy, her musical "logic" if you will,  to a song that's emotional at its core, and stylistically different from her previous recordings. I like it... it shows a willingness on her part to move out of the safe zone, to innovate, to grow and experiment and take chances as an artist.

[taddyd1]

Right on, Nilsomar!

The flow of the original is ingrained in everyone's mind, but she is doing some real sangin here!

[sweenykim]

While I appreciate that others have done covers of this wonderful poignant song, NO ONE does it like the original & GREAT LOU GRAMM, THE MAN!!

[VentduSud13]

Me too....

Joan and Janis Joplin

Thx 4 share

[derwillider]

it´s an experiment

[SexyAlien2]

I'm an inconditional of Joan Beaz, but i don't think this suits her well. Also, the original song is better in my opinion. Anyways, she's still an amazing woman and inspired me so much in my life.

[sophiasebastien]

I'm afraid I disagree. It's nice to try to reach out and do something different sometimes.. There's more register than Barbara Allen to the woman...It's the message she aimed at....

Adoravel!

[blindcommisioner]

I love and have always loved and respected Joan but this is performance was..er, a mistake. Sorry Joan.

[pontedupre009]

This is beautiful !!! I love this song.

Beautiful song. The Lyrics are very revealing of everyday human feelings.... We all want to know and experience love.

[jacksonflashman]

i like joan a lot, but this is a very, very weird performance. not her style of music... her voice isn't made for that kind of song. very strange.

[EdEckersley]

i agree in someway, its very dramatic never the less, shes not singing about love.

[PeterLucasErixon]

An absolutely brilliant performance.

[JordanDurell]

"I love Miss. Baez very much", this is one time her stage fright shows through, in spite of her smile. She fought it for years. Also the mike is not working properly,take it from a singer,it is not picking any base tones in her voice, producing a shrill quality. You have to be very careful with microphones,even the very best,sometimes they can be off just a little bit, and it will make a heep big difference in how you sound.

[ranchoboyeros]

she is one of our greatest singers

[ranchoboyeros]

what a version

[shirleyaiken]

Have you ever heard Clay Aiken's .

[georgegleek]

greg walker, the ultimate santana lead singer, there have been very many lead singers, but only one sings it the santana way!!

[Nightbird63]

That was horrible! Joan sounded like a goat. You could tell that Greg was embarrassed.

[zhexyc]

there actually was something odd about her singing,I agree...I`m a big fan,but I DID NOT like this performance

[paulostroff99]

Very enjoyable.Well done.

[tealsea]

That gave me goosebumps!

Her singing partner was Greg Walker of Santana. And the band was the Boston Pops. Thanks for posting this. I remember watching it on "Evening at Pops" when it first aired (1985 or so), but haven't seen it since. Great seeing it again!
