  • Essa ai tem o dom!! A arte de acabar com uma musica!!!

    

  • Obviously impossible to top Ray, but I like it for what it is.

    LOL at the musical geniuses that post on YouTube.

  • she still boreing and out of tune , im leaving

  • its not that its not good cause its live bla bla bla its just hard very very to top ray charles

  • seems like this would be good in a studio, but this fails as a live performance.

  • i truly think that the sound of what comes out of my ass hole would be more worth listening to than this monotone no sense of timeing bitch. At least a fart would be funny and there is nothing funny about this performance , just tragic.

  • 807 people clearly have a bag of dicks in their ears.

  • @JustinRTime I fucking wish.

  • So over-rated; I don't see or hear too much redeeming at all. I've listened to a lot of her stuff, and I always struggle to hear a 'song', a hook, something... all I hear is a lot of meandering that leads to nowhere - no hook, no chorus, no climax, and that is what music is about.

  • @defone9607 Music isn´t about that stuff your talking about, those are just a couple of tools

  • @scorpionboy3 hehe i swear i did not see your comment cus i was searching for comment more harsh *shake hands* :D

  • @defone9607 you know that's bullshit

  • @defone9607 music is about hook,. chorus climax?? are u serious?"????????????those are just tools!

  • @defone9607 music is about hook,. chorus climax?? are u serious?those are just tools!

  • @defone9607 1. it's not overraoted use ur eye see the thumb down ratio 2 music is about hook,. chorus climax?? are u serious?those are just tools!

  • 'voice of an angry angel' .. i like that comment

  • charisma

  • sounds like a different song... but still awesome

  • @chriselsworthy i'm with you - its different but her voice and her just soul i can feel ...i like it. she's really talented to bend like that. :)

  • voice of an angry angel

  • her voice is divine at 0:51 

  • love this tune, absolute addiction

  • o.O

  • and her name is Cat POWER, haven't see any in this nummer

  • Dan Electro - not bad tone at all.She shares a much earlier Grace Slick's range and much of her irreverence.

  • goddess? come on you gotta be kiddin me..

  • She's not much of a singer.

    I like the guitar, though.

  • What a lot of Cr*p. I could do better and I'm not "Cute".

  • Cat Power sucks.

  • I wish she would hit the road jack and don't come back no bloody more!

  • She could have redeemed herself by doing this song topless

  • Seriously, what justice in the universe allows the butchering of a classic tune like this.

  • she is on a lot of drugs :S

  • I like the spin she put on the song. I especially liked what she said at the end, Ha!

  • THIS SUCKS ANUS>

  • Amazing the chick has made Blues more confusing than Jazz.. Didn't think I would see that in my lifetime.

  • She kind of lives moment by moment, improvising without really doing so. I always feel like she is on edge like, like she could end the show at any moment because the sound isnt' right, or because she has some other flighty thought.

  • lol why am i the only one that thought it was a decent take on the song? i thought it was pretty good.

  • Comment removed

  • it takes a special person to make an upbeat song sound boring.

  • wtf, pure shit,

  • First time I see her. She looks like something The L Word threw up.

  • Um Cat Power rocks but this song is boring...

  • Lesbian music is interesting!

  • Frida Öhrn - Hit The Road Jack, Sin Wagon, Jolene beats this chick every day!

  • Man thats some fuckin Talent, Don't quit Burger King Chick.

  • FOR ALL YOU WHO SAY THIS SUCKS, Cat Power is really good.... this is a 2 minute cover done in her own original way. It's not all she does.

  • has she been diagnosed for anything?

  • In the words of Peter this was rather shallow and pendantic

  • @bcgabriot BUTTSCRATCHA

  • she's butchered one of the best song ever made.

  • LMAO! me and cat power were so on the same fucking level at bonnaroo!

  • genial; volvé a Argentina, acá está todo bien con vos

  • i wondered why you can get 816.000 view while my ear is being beat by a terrible cover........Shut up plss

  • Could this be any slower?

  • i think this is great and simple..and it aint that easy to pull off.

  • this is not soul.. this is shit

  • What is that noise coming out of this chick's mouth? Please make it stop,..

  • まあ、椎名林檎が美空ひばりをカバーしてるみたいなもんですか。­

  • She looks as though she has an itch in the very center of her head and she is trying to scratch it using facial expressions.

  • WTF?!?

  • what??????????

    got to leave this is doing my head in

  • what??????????

  • nothing

  • 978 people liked this shit! omg

  • @iaberis ya i agree, you want to hear something from her worth hearing look up "i've been thinking" by handsome boy modeling school!

  • u sucks!!!!!!

  • who are you to judge whether she 'respects' ray or not? her voice is incredible and she makes the song her own; thats the point.

  • It's still difficult for me to understand how such beautiful voice exists. It's almost unreal.

  • Koreans , the Chinese people from Taiwan to Japan , which hates all other Asians . It is not rude Koreans , self-consciously , a mass of self- aggrandizement , because it is full of transformation .

  • @Httm1 wtf you don't make sense at all...

  • ray si stara' rivoltando nella tomba......

  • awfull!! she has done better things, but Ray has to be respected!

  • Cat Power is awesome! I Love the direction she took this, as opposed to soem of her other songs!! Thanks for posting this!! :D

  • @youtmeme

    Cat Power is a not a singer. 

  • @347coach, no? What I see is someone getting attention and money for playing guitar and singing...what do you see?

  • @youtmeme

    What I see is Cat Power!

  • @347coach, now I don't know if you are a fan or a detractor.....

  • Who's "cat" couch landed her into fame? Most ridiculous "blues" artist I ever heard.

  • @barbhe53 do you really mean that or do you just hate this cover? have you heard her other stuff??

  • beautiful

  • @bslanejr

    NO, TERRIBLE! CAT POWER, GO HOME!!!...

  • not for me but keep rockin

  • I love Cat Power, but somewhat i dislike this cover. 

  • @presocraticamente

    I agree...really dig some of her work, but this? monumentally underwhelmed.

  • The Cat Empire is better

  • Really? The Amazing Talent that should be up on that stage and then there's this instead. No she's a mediocre singer at best not a guitar player. She Needs to practice and more work at her craft. Sorry but it's all bad.

  • This really reminds me of Fiest

  • cat power? CAT POWER?? REALLY??

  • cat power? CAT POWER?? REALLY?? just no.

  • She is really good at singing but some good guitar player could turn this performance into next level imho.

  • Cat Power is awesome!!! JUST LISTEN!!!

  • in a sense she reminds me of  Feist

  • What the F**K is this S**T?

    Shame there was no sniper in the audience.

  • she have no energie, ray charless should feel shame

  • @netiekto you have no good spieling or grammars. Cat Powers is unbelievably talented, shame on you for saying anything bad.

  • so damn boring

  • This doesn't sound much like Ray Charles's version. 

  • coolest woman alive ha

  • booooooooooooooooooooring!!!!!­!!!!

  • The only person, that could ever do this song justice, is not this whiny mother fucker!

  • she sux

  • I love Cat Power...but that's no good cover.

  • This is too good to played on the radio.

    She has a stadium full of people riveted. One lil girl and a cheap guitar (no offense meant here). You have done that before ri-iiiiiight? Me either. This isn't music, this is raw feeling. Gives me chills, gives me chills! You were disappointed when she stopped singing too, weren't you?

  • @13azurerust Too good for radio? What does that even mean? I'll tell ya what it is--it's nauseating! This isn't a stadium full of people either, it's the freakin' Tent @ Bonnaroo, and the only ones riveted are the handful of melodramatic douchers down front who wish they were her, because they're too boring to display personalities of their own! You're right about one thing, though. This isn't music...at all. Raw feeling, you say? Rofl! It's a hideous "cover", just like the rest of her "songs".

  • cool ILL DO HER!

  • omg so all i have to do is lose 20 lbs, grow some bangs, get a telecaster, not take guitar lessons and just strum a chord or two now and then and sing all semi-bluesy and people will worship me??? hehe i'm just being silly, but for real she has an awesome voice & i'm glad she never went mainstream, but damn, sometimes she needs to push it just a little this makes it seem like she doesn't care about putting any effort into it, like her cuteness will make up for her performance or something. :/

  • @peechyq Everyone should lose 20lbs and grow bangs!

    Re: guitar, its a danelectro - very cute.

    Good oprah outra chan!

  • @peechyq she is wasted dummy... and she ain't cute... she's a indie rock goddess

  • @leeshep WOW did i say it was a " bad " performance? i've watched her perform live numerous times and it seems she just doesn't seem to give it her all anymore, even when sober. she rocked it in the 90's but for the past few years it seems she lost some luster. just my opinion.

  • @leeshep goddess? come on you gotta be kiddin me..

  • @peechyq you have to look as hot as her too!

  • @peechyq And it's not a telecaster it's a Danelectro :)

  • @sackcheck Exactly.

  • @peechyq

    her cuteness makes up for it.

  • @peechyq

    her cuteness makes up for it, wouldn't you bang it out for a night?

  • @peechyq: What you have to do is impossible, with the talent one is born, is not done

  • Comment removed

  • @peechyq its not what you play. it how you play it

  • @peechyq hahahahah! so trueeee!

  • @peechyq haha shes just playing what she feels ,youre unfeeling silly

  • Comment removed

  • Sorry, but this chick SUCKS. People listen to this drivel and call it music? Wow, how low we have fallen as a culture.

  • Seems like she may be on speed or something else I can't peg. What do you think?

  • she does it well

  • i think she's great.. amazing voice.. but she kinda killed the song.. just saying.

  • modern day patti smith? kinda?

  • She looks soo seexy!! [:

  • you killed the song!

  • if she wasn't hot, we'd all agree she lacks talent.

  • @TigerTaint I think she's a good singer, not really impressed by her guitar or arrangements though.

  • @TigerTaint what is talent? really

  • @TigerTaint i'd have to disagree

  • My god shes sexy up there aha :D

  • Damn! I been trying to say how much I want to listen to her beats, I just need to hear her roots and come off clean!

  • I can't take her. I need Jack! because he has talent

  • Nice to see that I got my account hijacked !!!!!

  • true woman. true style.

  • I knew this was going to be awful, but I watched it anyway.

  • You need to give it a chance. Life is full of surprises!!!!

  • yo la acompañaría con un guitarrista mas interesante.

  • she is realy GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! and yes she has soul!

  • she is GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

  • Nice vocalist, wrong arrangement and tune. She cut it off before the audience fell asleep

  • Her voice is really realy nice, and yes, she's got soul, but this cover is really bad. I think she could have written another song and then sing it in that kinda way, and that would have been great. But this cover cannot be good if you compare with the original song...

  • Sorry but this is the worst cover i've ever heard of this song...soo lame!

  • When your voice is that amazing I guess you don't need a lot of backing.

  • Yes, Chan writes her own stuff. She is my cousin after all. I may not like her style of music but she is a damn good musician. And for all you boys who thinks she's hot, she's getting married.

  • Fucking love you

  • She has such an amazing voice.

  • She's one cute broad.

  • Awesome performer.

  • me encanta, i love her :)

  • 2:19 to 2:32 she sounds so cute :D

    ''Would you like another shot at the band''

  • horrible, perdio totalmente el alma de la cancion, un asco total!

  • I like it. She moves like a 1950s blues singer. She has soul.

  • @cyReesyPeace I'd do her.

  • Shes palying a danelectro with the coke bottle head, and yes this song is terrible. She does have a lot of good songs though. The real question is , if she was ugly would anyone listen to her?

  • @phenylketonuric1 I love her music. If she were 20 years older and obese and had scales covering her body I would definitely listen and buy her music.

  • what kind of guitar is she using?

  • Obviously a dead one.

  • danelectro?

  • danelectro

  • She's not really a good performer and her technical skill with instruments is severely limited, but she has written a few very powerful songs.

  • @freelancehero

    I don't think she even writes her own songs. Sea of Love, her biggest hit, is a cover of a song from the fifties. I could be wrong, though. She might write her own stuff, I just haven't heard anything but covers.

  • She does. She's best-known for the covers, but she's written a couple of albums of her own material.

  • ... Cat Power's actually released SIX albums of her own songs over the last 15 years.

  • @LukeKellylives She is a song writer.

  • Comment removed

  • just for the record------- ill do her----- GIGGITY GIGGITY GOOO!

  • if by "do" you mean kill, then please do us all a favour and get to it.

  • Cat Power kicks ass. The ppl who found this by accident and hate it go spread your nastiness somewhere else. She is incredibly talented.

  • I love how this sounds like a whole different song, I love this cover
