  • Absolutely the best rendition of this song by anyone. Thanks "PopsTake4" for this great picture and sound upload. Best I could find in my search.

  • The definitive version of this song, no question. The way Joan's voice breaks up on the 'tell me' section near the end gives me goosebumps, even after watching for the 10th time. Thanks so much for posting this up.

  • This is the absolute best rendition of this song ever...Joan sings with a passion of having been there and makes the lyrics not only words but emotions. Thanks Joan

  • thanks man for uploading good quality track was stuck with bad one like others was captivated by Joans version of this song since watching funk brothers thanks man

  • I saw this tour a few years back. I knew it may be the last chance to hear this constellation live, which doubled the emotion. The acoustics were not great in Berlin, but I was still blown away..This song was a highlight..For those who did not get the chance to see the Funk Brothers tour I recommend seeing the film " Standing in the Shadows of Motown " in a cinema with good sound system.I was impressed and highly entertained by that also.

  • @MrSear62 Me too I just love it most amazing !!

  • God Joans voice cuts straight to the soul....truly one one of the greatest vocalists ever, have listened to this a thousand times and everytime goosebumps. By the way, what kind of troglodyte presses "dislike" for this video??? Really?!?!?!

  • Joan Osborne Voice,is AWSOME. GOD GIFTED, TALENT. GOD BLESSED HER FOR LIFE.*****

  • Definitely one of the greatest versions of this tune, absolutely love her vocals!!!!

    (She's attractive also not really the focus just wanted to acknowledge) The musical arrangement is actually awesome! Love the piano, excellent percussion section, the horns and strings.

    The bass and drums steadily laying down the foundation of the groove! Just an awesome rendition. Absolutely love it.

  • Incredible!  An all time great voice! The Funk Brothers are fantastic! They allow Joan to unleash that amazing voice. You can tell she feels this song. I never really paid attention to this song but Joan makes you feel the pain, the hopelessness, the desperation! I can listen to this version over and over!

  • Not only Motown, but a new Janice Joplin! God she has the blues down under the sea!

  • @ron1401 Absolutely agree, magic
