  • Tribute bands abound, but does anybody have the audacity or the ability to cover Janis?

  • Nobody will ever come cose to Janis, shes a legend and will always be.

  • al cantar se nota que pone su alma en sus labios

    por siempre la mejor janis

  • Esse rock n roll é do caralho!!!

  • Thanks for posting this!

  • Great job! I've seen most of the photos and it was good to see them again. (And see those that I hadn't.)

    She is still truly missed/

  • Her good friend R. Crumb at 3:23.

  • That was fantastic! Where did you get those early photos? Thanks for sharing!

  • Someday maybe, another will eclipse Janis....nah!

  • muy buen tributo... yo la amooo!

  • There was only one Janis Joplin,nobody else comes close. She is the what the word LEADGEN is all about.

  • janis... una grande!!!. lindo video!!

  • jamas he escuchado a ningun otro cantante que interprete de esta manera, mejor dicho no interpreta las vive, es una mujer espectacular

  • so cool!wow! i don't know what else to say!

  • Magnífic, molt bona feina. Però és clar, am una cantant tan bona has tingut les coses molt fàcils! xD

  • Es cierto, el desgarre en la voz...Madre mía, qué manera de sentir el dolor en una canción.

  • I love how you can hear the pain in her voice in everything she sings... it breaks my heart.. RIP

  • this is very nicely done. reverent.

  • Can't understand why they can't get the movie made. She deserves to be a screen goddess too. A young Emily Watson would have been perfect. Saw her live twice. Incredible. She was one of the gods.

  • Toda tu belleza fisica e interpretativa. Se rompio el molde cuando naciste, no podra haber otra como tú, bella tu, bella tu voz, bella la estela que dejaste en tu paso por aqui.

  • beautiful!

  • Nice , but now i gota log off and go find me some bell bottom pants .

  • Thank you Laporters! Great pics!

  • she will be in my heart forever !  i hope i gonna meet her one day !

  • janis, janis ,janis she was so great!!!!

  • AMAZING,AMAZING!

  • I loved her so much,I have a few of these but not this one,Janis will live forever with people like you and me.I keep trying to get 8 yr old granddaughter into it but she's more interested in how "funny" we dressed,

    Thanks,

    carysbirds

  • There will come a time, Carys, there will come a time... Few years from now, when she can finally discern real music from the craps that we the younger generation are so get used to, when she can finally see through all the "funny" clothes and the bare-faces that didn't know and need any Photo-Shop manipulations and artificial make-overs, THEN she will know... I pray for that day to come... :-)

  • Thanks,I needed that,I can't believe mt granddaughter at 8 yrs old is being taught the soulja boy dance in PE! I mean he's cute and all,but is that really acceptable PE?

    Have a good one,cary

  • This is so sweet....thank you for adding it. :~}

  • ძალიან მაგარია! მადლობთ!

  • Love u Janis... hope u are happy now

  • Ilove janis 4ever

  • მაგარია

  • To laporters: Thanks, man! These are some of the best Janis pics on YouTube. Great. Truly appreciate this post. Peace.

  • The thing that strikes me is that she's almost always either smiling or singing passionately in her pictures. What a character to have blazed through this world. RIP, babe.

  • I noticed the comments about makeup and why she never wore any and I was wathing the video and noticed, on the large face portrait that begins @ 2:55 and ends @ 2:59, she is wearing makeup. She looks even more beautiful than she was. I noticed it when it was playing, but then went back and she is def waering face makeup, mascara, and something on her lips. Kind of interesting to see her in makeup. She was absolutely beautiful!

  • I like the self-portrait in the floppy hat.

  • Young folks won't realize, many of these photos were once giant posters taped to the ceiling looming in blacklight !

  • actually, she had a little girl like quality about her face and attitude. I am an artist.

    I could have made her look stunning with just a little makeup. Her facial bone structure was good. Only her nose was not the greatest however her voice was.

    I always wondered why she didn't want to wear mascara and shadow more..and have her hair styled. She will always be beautiful and loved though.....

  • Then, you've not seen the photographs she did with Richard Avedon in 1968. She was given the glamour treatment and she looked stunning! But her beauty was without makeup or stylish hair. Her beauty was in the voice with which she sings the first song of this posting. A voice that rings true always and forever. You can't buy beauty like that.

  • What an amazing woman! I wish she was still alive.she is the best singer of all time!

  • janis was the best female vocalist ever!!! love her so much! she put her heart and soul into her music! noone has ever done it better!

  • Quand Janis nous quittait je n'avais que 9 ans,je ne lui connais aucun aucune remplaçante, et pourtant je l'ai recherché comme un enfant cherche sa mére!...

  • Laporters, gracias mucho por demostrarnos esta película hermosa.

    I have goosebumps. Never heard this version. And the pics were great! 5 stars on this one.

    Janis was simply transcendent.

  • What a number! Written by the legendary NY songmiller Jerry Ragavoy & done up by the best...you won't hear this at night on Lite-FM! Too bad...it sure would break up the Rod Stewart and Cyndi Lauper ballads!

  • what is the music???

  • beautiful

  • Thank you so much, laporters, for posting this GREAT video! She looks so happy here! Wish she would have found the love she wanted so much. Just love her! Peace, Janis! You deserve it, girl! Wish she were still with us!

  • eei genial us ha kdat mncanta. janis x sempre.

  • She's absolutely beautiful in the pic at 3.05. You can see all the good qualities of her shining through her smile and her whole stance. Sigh...I wish I could have met her.

  • this makes me very sad.. I love Janis... =( the greatest voice and soul ever

  • She's the greatest singer EVER..

    I love her so much ^^

  • If wanting to be astonishingly beautiful makes somebody beautiful, there was never anyone more beautiful than Janis. We love you, Janis, always.

  • This is a comment of utmost profundity and most incisive insight! Wow! Great comment! And, totally true. Peace!

  • she looked always happy in these pictures

    why did she allow heroin to take her life ?

    sad

  • I love Janis...

  • great stufff, timeless....

    Thanks for the music!

    RESPECT!

  • ALL Janis Joplin FANS:

    This October 4th, take a glance at the sky and show some respect to the Queen.

    I'm gonna dress up like her at skl and pass out signs...

    Just don't let her be forgotten.

    thank you "laporters"

  • amo a janis joplinn

  • muy bueno te felicito al quien lo hizo saludos desde argentina

  • BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for Sharing!

  • Thank you, great effort.

  • My kids love her, too, and they are nineteen and seventeen. Gotta wonder. Drugs killed her back in the day but, given prescription medicines now, could we ever had known a Joplin? Would she have been Ritalined out before her prime?

  • Do you think ritaline stoppes you from being a great singer? I just want to know what you mean by saying that since i have two boys with adhd

  • great collection of photos great job

  • great songs, wonderful video. nice :))

  • great vioce never heard her till now

  • Dude "gareof" good for you but i dont think anyone cares...

  • aw shit - i thought for sure ....SOMEONE would....

  • I used yo Get in fights In Nam when guys would call her a Slut> My 28 and 25 yr old Daughters Love Her!

  • how old were you when you had your first ? negative 3?

  • I was in 'Nam in 66 and again in 68..not too hard to have a 28 and 25 year old kid...that arithmetic is just too hard for some folks, eh, gareof?

  • betherine82 bio says HE's 25 now - but seriously, i saw this family guy episode one time where peter & lois were trying to get people to believe that brian was their son & stewie was only a 'friend'...brian got so pissed off he wrote to his staff sargeant about the whole thing & the guy offed him

  • she was such great a personality.

    Always love her *****

  • shes ucha beautiful woman

    sad she died :\

    i LOVE you janis

  • Yeah I know I liked the first song too!! *whine*

    It's kicks ass!!

  • good times,good times. oh yeah.toodles!

  • AWW, I wanted to hear all of the first song!

  • excelente trabajo, un muy buen tributo a la mas grande de todos los tiempo, muchas gracias.

  • Man, if she had ever got a real band to back her she would have been even more amazing - they drug her down - look what happened to Tina after she got rid of idiot ike - Janis would have been doing the same +

  • gareof ..

    SHE HAD A REAL BAND! THEY WERE PERFECT TOGETHER....YOUR NOT DEAF ARE YOU?

  • evidently you are - listen to the mess, listen to Janis - it's evident as you listen to her live performances compared to the studio recordings. I played music a lot of years (40)and as a singer & musician I can tell you Janis was head & shoulders in talent over the whole big bro band. I'm sure that's why she loved the drugs..to escape "reality"

  • 40 years music...that MUST have made you deaf!being a "musician"

  • it only means that i have 40 years experience in music - i know what actually sounds good in pitch and timing. most people don't - but most people don't have good pitch or timing - but most people don't have to because they don't play music for a living. just like most people don't have to do whatever it is you do for a living

  • I am a booking agent voor blues rock bands in Europe.Have been for 20 odd years,I myself have had a classical music education at the Conservertorium in Amsterdam. Sorry to dissapoint you.

  • a booking agent - holy shit - no wonder you've got no taste

  • what doe you know/ If you could read.....i also attended the consertorium

  • Don't you mean the concert - torium - or the shit cert torium - but seriousl, i saw this family guy episode one time where peter & lois were taking music lessons & the teacher was a concert master with the Quahog sym-phoney & stewie was so jealous he hired itcy & scratchy from the simpsons, to rub 'em out

  • I am dutch! Id like to see you write dutch like i write english..you twat

  • Big Brother and the Holding Company was her first of three rock bands. The producer on Cheap Thrills said he could have made that album sound better if Columbia hadn't pressed him for time. The second band had too many horns. Take a listen to her with her last and favorite band on some Dick Cavett videos and on the Pearl album.

  • hippies forever

  • hippie!

  • oh yeah baby she sure did. I would have that bottle of southern comfort right next to my hip dragging myself from bar to bar in a slinky 1930s black satin dress. off my head over Janis....

  • sweet Janis... i love you

  • she introduced me to "Southern Comfort" as well ....anyone else?

  • aż mnie dreszcze przeszły ..:)

  • i love janis joplin!!

    she is perfect!!

  • Wow, with all due respect to Janis, I did not wanna see her nipples through that shirt............... Okay, maybe I did.

  • Janis joplin was so unique and talented singer. She still remains as the best female singer in the entire history of music.

  • Janis we will love you for ever!! and we never will gonna forget you!! you are in our little piace of our heart......

  • I have to find her biography somewhere.......ty for the vid awesome

  • RIP Janis

  • I think this captures the essence of Janis. Always great to hear Janis. It would be fantastic to hear the rest of Hesitation Blues. Thats got to be a rare one. Please post it if you have it. Thanks so much for this wonderful video.

  • she lives vicariously through me...

    RIP

    1/19/43-10/4/70

  • Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever...

  • Warming tribute. Janis personified Rock!

  • We celebrate life of Janis. She wasn't, she is great and she will always be. Maybe she died because of druggs... maybe she could be a grandma right now. One thing is sure, if she was a grandma right now, she wouldn't have been known as what she is right now. JANIS JOPLIN!

  • she was more than great...I love her voice, style. FOR ME SHE'S THE BEST

  • this shows a bunch of cool Janis pics.

  • Everyone has a timeline on life. Whether she did drugs or not, it was her time to go. Honor her brilliance, not her downfall.

  • grandissima janis...x le tue canzoni ci sarà sempre posto in a piece of my heart...soprattutto per la stupenda Me and Bobby McGee

  • why celebrate such a destructive lifestyle/drugs killed her, she'd be a grandma, instead, she's dead, Thank's to drugs,,ya'll celebrate

  • It's a sad fact that Janis led a destructive lifestyle for awhile but that does not, in any way, take away from her talent and her spirit as a person. If we can't find compassion in our hearts for those who are lost, addicted and sad, then we, too, are among those who are lost and sad. God bless you, my friend. I pray that if there is ever a time in your life when you make a mistake or become among one of those mentioned above, someone shows you the compassion you deserve.

  • extremely gorgeous.

  • i love her songs,voice,everything

  • I love you!

  • She had a unique voice and a unique beauty.

  • janis joplin is very pretty

  • She died far to young but as you already know she has no compare. I miss this gutsy woman who only had song to give,bye Janis.

  • JANIS PER SEMPRE...... GRAZIE

  • esse video eh incrivellll

    muito bom

  • I think Janis is one of the greatest singers...her voice is so fantastic...she is the Sun on rainy day...piece to you girl!!!!

  • Janis..Hayatımın kadını..Yok ötesi yok..!

  • BEAUTIFUL

  • I love Janis.... <3

  • Osti! hauré d'investigar més sobre ella pq akest video q has editat m'ha agradat...no sabia q "Pice of my heart" fos seva :O

    salut!!! ;)

  • Essa música é do caralho!!!!!

  • Nice live version of "...Heart". Janis is still better than anyone singing tributes to her today like Joss Stone, Etheridge, et al.

  • I always think of the Grateful Dead's beautiful tribute song to Janis when listening to her..it says: "All I know is something like a bird within her sang. All I know is she sang a little while and then flew off. Tell me all that you know and I'll show you snow and rain." A beautiful spirit gone way too soon. Love you Janis!You took another little piece of my heart with you.

  • It's called Bird Song, lyrics written by Robert Hunter. I'm sure you know that alawson...but for everyone else, a youtube search for "Grateful Dead Birdsong" would be a good idea

  • Kudos to the director who produced this wonderful tribute to Janis-she left us too early-thank you so much for this :)

  • VERY nicely done.  Thanks.

  • Grande! ^^

  • AWESOME tribute video to her! Thanks for sharing it =)

  • Janis, the voice from heaven

  • Janis Joplin put every ounce of energy into every performance she ever done. Then, just to make sure there was nothing left, she would give that kick at the end. There will never be another Janis Joplin!
