Back in the 60's we heard the songs on the radio before knowing what the singers looked like. The first time I heard Janis I thought she was black (the first time I heard Roberta Flack I thought she was white). With so much soul resonating in her voice and through her body as she sings, even all these years later she blows me away. And I love her lack (or minimum) of makeup - what a refreshing sight. Grateful for her gifts.

When you love somebody, you are taking a very big gamble on getting some sorrow. But who cares, because darling, we might not might be here tomorrow. And so if anybody comes along, and he's gonna give me some love and affection? I'd say, get it while you can.

Impossible to overstate the greatness of Janis! All these years later, she still stands alone in my book.

As much as I loved "Cheap Thrills"...these guys are MUCH better musicians...And she was a "Soul" singer!
