you know i saw Janis in concert front and center at the A/C Pop festival.. and she was beautiful because real beauty eminates from within a persons soul and spirit.. Janis had such a beautiful soul and child-like spirit. I thouhgt she was beautiful to me.. I guess it depends on what your idea a real beauty is.. but when you watch Jains perform she is so sensual and passionate that you are transfixed on her beauty of the soul which can be seen on her whole persona. Janis is beautiful woman.
really people? this doesn't sound good. i think the only reason people are saying this is because she's janis joplin. overall she's an okay singer to me but her singing in video is horrible. she sounds like marge from the simpsons.
@jbsvoyce I think this sounds beautiful not just because she's Janis Joplin. It's just my taste. And I understand that's not everyones taste but to assume that the only reason people saying that's good just because she's Janis Joplin is a little bit insolent.
God said to Jimi, Janis, Jim M., Brian J., Cobain, and Amy: "Im sending y'all down to earth for 27 years to show these people how music is really done."
You might say he didn't know what he was taking away from us but he send his musicians to teach us a lesson how music is what it suppose to be in his own way, R.I.P to the all 27 club musicians, you taught some of us well :')
Since Amy Winehouse was just found dead in her home, that puts her with Janis, Hendrix, Morrison and Cobain in the "Forever 27 Club", requirements being super talented, well loved by fans, & having drug and/or alcohol addiction(s). So sad, great losses, but it's so peculiar about that age. These were all troubles souls, hopefully they got relief in the here-after.
@albertomoralesnery P,lease don't every little sentence so literally on here for goodness sakes! I wasn't putting her in that category myself, just referring to what others have been saying about this so-called club. I I think it's a little silly, and simply refers 27 yr. old artists who died during the height of their career, no matter how many love or hate their talents. BTW, I won't discuss this further.
@hipncool07 Other people died at 27 Al Wilson from Canned Heat (played at Woodstock, popular band then) people @ 28, 32 for John Bonham & Keith Moon, Sid Vicious @ 21, etc. but some in bands not lead singers & as known. Janis was already doing speed before she was well-known, success = more money, more people in drug environment, a fluke overdose, insecure. Morrison was in seclusion not liking fame much anymore. Hendrix was not a troubled person. Cobain already had depression & fame issues.
I've listened for so many talented girls performing this song, eg Joss Stone and the likes.. but - God! - I feel so equally sorry for them ALL when I inevitablly end up listenning Janis....... it's like comparing miss world with Goddess...
Her passion was so very profound and I contend this bled over into her looks...there are moments of psychical expression (seen in photos especially) where Janis appears quiet beautiful...the same as her voice that, sometimes reached the heights of a song bird...other times crackling and rough.
Despite the looks and voice, though, it was her passion to express that was so moving to so many, and I wish her well.
i love her, I wish I was 19 when she was around. I wish I could go back in time and prevent her from killing herself, or overdosing. Idk man, I think she was beautiful in the outside, no make up or anything. She's my inspiration man. Not the whole dying thing. But I love her and her music.
holy sh** what happened to her voice? I guess that's how she sings lol, I have heard her but it's shocking when you see her sing like that. I wonder how much longer her voice will last.
@RachelEMacD That's a good question. But by the time she was doing the last album Pearl she had been shown how to sing a different way in her throat so that her voice *would* last. The way she had been doing it would have probably blown out her voice in near time. If you listen to the Pearl album (which she died before it was released but had already recorded all but one song), her voice sounds better & crisper. She had also gone straight off of heroin around that time but was drawn back to it.
@tomench@all, appart from that her version is rather interesting but I'm not about to wreck my head getting past the begining "yo I can't spell",, must be the mixed bizheads"
Even though THIS was my PRE-lysergic daze..NOW convinced that i met JJ and SHE bought US lunch when i was 10..ALWAYS thought it was an errant "memory"

Ich liebe ihre Musik... ich würde ihr wünschen das sie noch erlebt hätte wie beliebt ihre musik ist...
Heut zu tage musst du nicht mal singen können es reicht schon wenn Detlef dich auserwählt und dir sagt du wirst ein star.... ein haufen maschienen machen den rest... traurig ... ich glaube Janis würde weinen weil die KUNST und die Kreativität in der Modernen musik qualvoll zugrunde gehen! Ich denke es wäre so viel schöner wenn malwieder könner u. nich maschinen musik machen würden!
leider leider.... werden schon öffentlich in Soaps und filmen gitarre spielende sänger als deppen dargestellt und es ist ja mal so garnicht plastik pop schocko dreck wenn du zwar aussiehst wie ein Kübel Kotze dafür aber singen kannst wie sonst etwas!!!!
i'm just thrilled with the power of her voice..it's obvious that this kind of singers are born once in thousand years and you can check this out from the quality of the artists nowadays!she died too early but it's marvelous that her songs are still No.1!miss you,janis!
yessss!!!! janis joplin was really great. i also like her "mercedes benz"/ pity r d youngsters now coz they don't know jim morrison, jimi hendrix, the who, guess who, elp, grandfunk,temptations, smokey robinson & d miracles,marvin gaye & other motown sounds & also w/ dr. hook in their song :sylvia's mother nad many others. i like d music of the 70s, yes indeed!!!!
dear god...she was IT. no outward beauty....altho janis was dripping with inner sex....her talent owuld have been kicked under the mat. fuck the 2000's....you are missing something. DO YOU SEE WHAT IT IS???????????? DO YOU HEAR THE DIFFERENCE??????????easily played. on weak artists. yuck. you have NO STANDARDS.
@killy4u oh, yes - "Lady Gaga" = singing plastic bag. I think Janis has sacrificed herself on the altar of her art. I don't want anybody else to go down that road but that fascination originating from this is unique. See what will come from Amy Winehouse - maybe one day? Tragedy maybe needs to be there to touch the hearts of people........
This girl was so real, most ppl today have fake written all over them, they put up masks of themselves all the time, to the point were there is nothing left of who they really are... So sad, i hope there will be a new revolution soon like that in the 60s.
btw, this is so rare, thanks alot, I esp appreciate you posting...she helped me thru the hardest in my early crumbly days...I felt her Pain even none in my hometown listened to 'western music' let alone rock, I identified her with my heart code.
back then the collective made humanity music such as the DOORS_LED ZEPPELIN_QUEEN_BOB DYLAN_BEATLES_CCR...ppl back then at age 21 already be(relatively) refined enuf to tune up to Woodstock spirit_it's greatest era ever in music history_ppl at age21 this day? tune up to Iphone+twit is another thing but IMO the whole generation is lost in music though.
I'm from Boston, so was impacted deeply by 9/11/2001. But New York is not LA for sure. Look at the fuking Chelsea Hotel...no wonder most who lived there used drugs.
Wow, what a voice! I mean that woman could SING! And that's live! I haven't heard too many artist who sounds that good live today. Everything is hook up to machines and they still sound bad. She would make it today because she is the best singer of all time (female, anyway, there may be a male who is just as good). She would be that rare exception. She would break through all the barriers just like she did all those years ago. Folks would be STUPID not to sign her to their record company.
@zstreet1 Just because you prefer older music? Hm..sorry to tell you, but the 70s was a really miserable time. Go to New york in the 70s and theres barly a chance of you even comming back!
Janis was the best! Some talk about her drug use, others just appreciate her amazing talent. I wish more of the "artists" today had talent. Rather than drink at the "club" and act like a slut on stage. Janis may have been high but she was pure, raw talent.
i once heard drew barrymore talk about janis and say that the 1st janis song that she ever heard was summertime and that if this song couldn't make you feel something than she wouldn't understand and i totally agree......janis' version of summertime is so powerful and bluesy i to wouldn't understand if this didn't move someone
@MoriahRosales I went to your page to listen to you singing, & even though I posted basically this same comment there, I'd like to encourage you on here, too, & tell others to go listen to you as well. No matter what others think, sing for yourself and always enjoy it like you do now. My husband plays guitar and I have no musical talent, but I do love music...
Amazing song, beautiful voice, great interpretation. Fantastic Janis Joplin. It was love at first 'listenned'. I fell for Janis in a very fast way in all senses at the first time I knew of her music.
@1treehugger1967 You are so right. I WAS 21 when Janis was singing. In the late 60's a GREAT song came out every single week. And each one was so unique, and from a new group. I couldn't believe my ears. It was an invigorating era, musically. Here in NE Ohio, we produced tons of talented musicians.
She was a great singer. I really love her music, but I bet that today she wouldn't make it. Todays music business is all about who's sexy and who's more stupid. And in all that, music have become nothing special - crappy music, crappy lyrics, and chicks dancing half naked on the videos... sad but true.
@robakpiotr reason today theres only what you describe, is because talent like Joplins is once in a very LONG time, so the biz must do with what they have
@robakpiotr She was greate in BACK IN HER time! the 60-70's... Imagine what she had done now.. ----- but had'nt she been in the 60's born in the rythmnblues thingy.... the girl had a special voice and she felt the musik she was singign :-)
@robakpiotr maybe youre right about music business today but listen to her voice...if they search something unique they would just have to bring her out...i mean shes not sexy ( i dont know if she was dumb or not ;-) but i guess not) but if all the music reviewers or ho they are called would listen to this they´d probably realize what real music is and fuck all the other crap like lady gaga and all that so i think she would make it nowadays....but it would take a long time =)
@robakpiotr No way she wouldnt make it today. she would have been huge in any time. she´s a goddess. and there arent only stupid people nowadays, what we are missing is talented people who dont sell out, She was allways true to herself. love you JJ
@robakpiotr But Joplin's extraordinary success as a pioneer in a male-dominated rock industry of the late 1960s was unprecedented. Joplin, along with Grace Slick of the Jefferson Airplane, opened opportunities into the rock music business for future female singers.
@robakpiotr i knowww riiiggghhhhttt???? its like the pleasure from the real cold hard fact of the music isnt there anymore so they add half naked girls for it??? i seriously could care less about girls these dayz man, most of em are stoops, doin drugs in an unexperimental way. "just cause its cool" or "its the latest thing." and i dont need no girl in my life to hold me back from my strives and goals. i could easily get my peasure from playing and sharing my music and spreadin the message.
Today's music really isn't all bad, but you have to have to patience to search. Janis Joplin's sound was never mainstream, even for her time. Likewise, to find contemporary music that isn't "all about who's sexy and who's more stupid", you have to listen to non-mainstream artists. Hope for the music industry is not lost; you just have to keep your ears open.
I would check out Adele, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Fantasia Barrino and Beyonce. Also, some oldies soul/blues artists still make music today, like B.B. King, Etta James, Tina Turner and Koko Taylor (who just passed away in 2009). Some contemporary female rock artists like Pink and Melissa Etheridge are also worth checking out. Of course, no one could fuse soul and rock quite like Janis did, but that's not to say that this genre is dead.
@robakpiotr All depends on what your definiltion of "making it" is. If it's material things, and fame based on sales, you're probably right. If making it means you're living your art, creating your voice, and being true to ourself, then shit, Janis would make it in any time period. :-)
@robakpiotr that's not about the music scene, those who are talented really bring something new despite of other jerks. But i agree that there's no blues rock like this nowaday ;)
Summertime - so wie es von Gershwin wohl gedacht war - eigentlich nicht mein Geschmack! Was Janis Joplin und besonders auch die B. B.& Holding Company daraus gemacht haben einfach genial!
Best Summertime recording ever - and I know a lot of them. The intro is brilliant and the musicians have been under-estimated so badly. Miles better than the Kozmic Blues album's band.
Thanks so much for posting this, I've been looking for it for quite a long time...most incredible recording of this song ever...by chance did you see this entire documentary??? It was a remarkable tribute, and aired on Bravo a few years ago.
It moves...deep

i once heard drew barrymore talk about janis and say that the 1st janis song that she ever heard was summertime and that if this song couldn't make you feel something than she wouldn't understand and i totally agree......janis' version of summertime is so powerful and bluesy i to wouldn't understand if this didn't move someone

@MoriahRosales I went to your page to listen to you singing, & even though I posted basically this same comment there, I'd like to encourage you on here, too, & tell others to go listen to you as well. No matter what others think, sing for yourself and always enjoy it like you do now. My husband plays guitar and I have no musical talent, but I do love music...

Amazing song, beautiful voice, great interpretation. Fantastic Janis Joplin. It was love at first 'listenned'. I fell for Janis in a very fast way in all senses at the first time I knew of her music.

@1treehugger1967 You are so right. I WAS 21 when Janis was singing. In the late 60's a GREAT song came out every single week. And each one was so unique, and from a new group. I couldn't believe my ears. It was an invigorating era, musically. Here in NE Ohio, we produced tons of talented musicians.

I gotta tell ya it WAS GREAT.
One of the things that make good memories.
Very sad most of the really great musicians killed themselves on drugs.
Thank God the recordings and videos are still available.
Stay well.

She was a great singer. I really love her music, but I bet that today she wouldn't make it. Todays music business is all about who's sexy and who's more stupid. And in all that, music have become nothing special - crappy music, crappy lyrics, and chicks dancing half naked on the videos... sad but true.

speedyMEG 1 year ago
@robakpiotr maybe youre right about music business today but listen to her voice...if they search something unique they would just have to bring her out...i mean shes not sexy ( i dont know if she was dumb or not ;-) but i guess not) but if all the music reviewers or ho they are called would listen to this they´d probably realize what real music is and fuck all the other crap like lady gaga and all that so i think she would make it nowadays....but it would take a long time =)

@robakpiotr No way she wouldnt make it today. she would have been huge in any time. she´s a goddess. and there arent only stupid people nowadays, what we are missing is talented people who dont sell out, She was allways true to herself. love you JJ

@robakpiotr But Joplin's extraordinary success as a pioneer in a male-dominated rock industry of the late 1960s was unprecedented. Joplin, along with Grace Slick of the Jefferson Airplane, opened opportunities into the rock music business for future female singers.
GSwatchdog 1 year ago
@robakpiotr i knowww riiiggghhhhttt???? its like the pleasure from the real cold hard fact of the music isnt there anymore so they add half naked girls for it??? i seriously could care less about girls these dayz man, most of em are stoops, doin drugs in an unexperimental way. "just cause its cool" or "its the latest thing." and i dont need no girl in my life to hold me back from my strives and goals. i could easily get my peasure from playing and sharing my music and spreadin the message.

Today's music really isn't all bad, but you have to have to patience to search. Janis Joplin's sound was never mainstream, even for her time. Likewise, to find contemporary music that isn't "all about who's sexy and who's more stupid", you have to listen to non-mainstream artists. Hope for the music industry is not lost; you just have to keep your ears open.

Can you give me some of the artists that you're referencing? I would love to add some more pure soulful music to my library.
mYmuSicpLaYLiSt09 1 year ago
@mYmuSicpLaYLiSt09
I would check out Adele, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Fantasia Barrino and Beyonce. Also, some oldies soul/blues artists still make music today, like B.B. King, Etta James, Tina Turner and Koko Taylor (who just passed away in 2009). Some contemporary female rock artists like Pink and Melissa Etheridge are also worth checking out. Of course, no one could fuse soul and rock quite like Janis did, but that's not to say that this genre is dead.

@robakpiotr All depends on what your definiltion of "making it" is. If it's material things, and fame based on sales, you're probably right. If making it means you're living your art, creating your voice, and being true to ourself, then shit, Janis would make it in any time period. :-)

@robakpiotr that's not about the music scene, those who are talented really bring something new despite of other jerks. But i agree that there's no blues rock like this nowaday ;)

Best Summertime recording ever - and I know a lot of them. The intro is brilliant and the musicians have been under-estimated so badly. Miles better than the Kozmic Blues album's band.
