There is a great live version of this with Keith Urban live at the ARIA awards. Must see her 'Ain't no little Girl' - live at the Bluegrass Underground - an answer to all those people who ever questioned her resolve. Must see the live version - just amazing.
This was aimed at the radio stations who wouldn't play any of her first album which had been critically acclaimed. Ironically this was an absolute smash hit and is still on rotation on the radio today 20+years later. I hope you eventually get to my suggestion for Lawrence - Don't lose sight (acoustic). It truly is uplifting.
@@chaoticoldbore I think it’s amazing this song has likely far outlasted most if not all who DID make it to radio play back then. Rock on, Kasey! Thanks for the reminder of that song, I’m double checking to make sure I have it on my playlist. It may be a bit before I can get to it, but I’m making sure it’s there when I’m able!
Yes, this song is a good anthem for what Leonard Cohen called “the ones like us, who are oppressed by the figures of beauty.” He continued, “we are ugly, but we have the music.” Big thanks to Kasey for writing this song, and to Becca for sharing it. Another one this reminds me of is Beth Hart’s “Leave the Light On,” have you heard it?
@@BeccaDoss the Leonard Cohen lines are from his beautifully sad song, “Chelsea Hotel #2,” which he wrote for Janis Joplin. That one is also worth a listen. But I think the Beth Hart song will hit you harder, the way it does to me too.
@@willasacco9898 Thank you for the suggestion and the heads up, Paul. I’m adding that to my list but will keep the concern in mind. Very thoughtful of you.💕
I last saw Kasey about 10 years ago. It was pouring with rain, but she still came out, like the trooper she is, and she played in the rain while we all danced in the rain.
Becca it's great to see you back. As a multiple decades-long Kasey Chambers fan, it's really fun to watch you going down the Kasey rabbit hole. You really connect to her music and get the emotion she is putting in. I don't have a copy yet because I have to order one from Australia, but Kasey has written an autobiography and apparently she talks about a lot of pain in her life including losing a child and an eating disorder. So I think the things you are describing are definitely emotions she has experienced. I hope you will do more Kasey and will echo the suggestion another commenter made that you check out Ain't No Little Girl the PBS Bluegrass Underground version. Also, I wondered if you knew about Brandi Carlile? You would absolutely LOVE her song The Joke. I hope your recovery is going well and look forward to seeing more reactions. Much love!
Thank you so much, Jess. I haven’t been able to get to the MG1 comments, but I also wanted to thank you for your extremely kind words there. You are such an encouragement and it’s a blessing to have you here.💕
This was the first song I ever heard from Kasey. It was a big hit here in Australia. Many decades later I bought a farm and my neighbour was her brother Nash so got to see her a few times trying new material. Sometimes you just luck out
Okay now that is just TOO cool! Whoa! Thanks so much for sharing, this made me smile a lot. What a small world we live in. (Resisting the urge to break out in song…) And so amazing that you got to see her trying some new material out, what special memories to have!😁💕
Bec, I really appreciate your reactions and commentary. You have a talent for authentic analysis of a performance. (It isn't one of my talents) Just want to let you know that I love your spontaneity... even though I comment only sporadically. All the best to you from Debbie in Australia. ✌☮🕯💙
Good to see you back Becca...you are looking good...thanks for doing this...hope you try her song Ain't No Little Girl next...talk about female empowerment!!! Thanks for this, all ❤...until next time stay strong
This was Kasey's first big hit., and you're right. It was sold, as a single, mostly to women. I have it on the album " The Captain". But I'm glad it was on there.
Saw you react to Lose Yourself on a compilation video and had to seek out your channel. Absolutely love your energy and transparency. My youngest had disordered eating. Recovery is different for everyone. Please know I’m on your side. And please consider - you aren’t too much. They aren’t enough. Peace
Sharon, you have no idea how much your words are a blessing to me to read as I’m having a rough day on an inpatient ED unit. Thank you so much. Looking forward to finally beating this crap so I can get back to the content I love making, and connecting with the wonderful souls I have the privilege of meeting in this little corner of the TH-cam world. I so appreciate you.💕
Got a request for you, a song by Paul Kelly called 'From little things big things grow' I think you will like it. Paul is an amazing songwriter from Australia.
Must admit I’ve never seen that video. Clearly made for the American market. I’m used to seeing the one set at a local country dance where she’s sort of singing to a guy across the room. I really like that video, but I think this one is better. Nice reaction.
Her official videos are all very polished & great, but please watch some of her live performances (eg Bluegrass Underground), to get her raw emotion. She is dynamite.
Thanks so much for the suggestions, I definitely wanted my next Kasey reaction to be a live performance, so I appreciate the rec so I can make sure I add them to my list of songs to get to.💕
I just came across this video & I loved your heartfelt reaction. You have a new subscriber. I would love you to react to another Aussie singer I know you would love. Guy Sebastian was Australia`s first Idol winner in 2003 & is now a judge on The Voice Australia. Like Kasey, Guy writes beautiful & meaningful songs. I would love to see you react to Guy Sebastian - Standing With You (Official Video). This song was written for a family member of Guys who was struggling with depression. Keep smiling Becca, it suits you. 😊
Love your reaction lovely .... Another song Kasey wrote from her heart is 'Ain't No Little Girl' original video is brilliant but there is also a 'live' performance she did in the USA I think you'd love as she gets completely overwhelmed with the audiences applause. th-cam.com/video/OeWzXIkA8Rg/w-d-xo.html
Becca, I recently learned of Kasey Chambers but had not seen this video before. Thanks for reacting to it and for your insightful and loving commentary. I greatly look forward to your next reaction to Angelina Jordan and I would recommend a recent original song, "Good in Goodbyes". You likely have a long list of new artists to react to but please add The Warning, a power trio of 3 sisters from Monterrey Mexico. They are currently ages 24, 22 and 19 and about to release their 4th album. Their band name is appropriate, as they write lyrics with their views on today's world and they deliver those lyrics with their own unique style of rock. I have seen them live 4 times and can't wait for my next concert. I highly suggest starting with their first music video, "XXI Century Blood" which is the title track for their first album, released when they were ages 17, 15 and 12. The lyrics are in the description. th-cam.com/video/syTyga3lVL0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XjRIRLFO8RAWsxCl
@@pvandewyngaerde Thanks for the reminder that I suggested The Warning during her premiere of Ren's Money Game Part 1. I guess I just reminded Becca again.
Thank you, as always, Andy, for being such a thoughtful supporter here.💕 I think with the AJ stuff I’m going to work my way through the rest of her EP in order (aside from the track I did before I knew there was a narrative to the EP), so I’ll be getting to Good in Goodbyes hopefully sooner rather than later! And thanks for the reminder about The Warning, I’ve seen them come up a few times but haven’t had a chance to dive into them yet, so inappropriate you reminding me to add them to my list to get to when able, they sound amazing!😁
When l was growing up, l always felt that l was invisible; barring the love from my mother, l felt like l had to fight to be accepted. I'm fairly introverted, and tend to push too much; I end up pushing people away, with my over the top approach. Yes, I feel I'm not pretty enough; which tends to make me over emotional, especially when I see others receiving the sort of love I crave.
Jay, I am so sorry to hear of the pain you had to endure at such a young age-if no one has told you recently, you deserved so much better than that. And also, you are not over-emotional or too sensitive or any of those other things that are often levied at those of us who feel so deeply. You are in good company here in this community, and I’m so thankful to have you here. And you deserve all the love you see others receiving-I know it’s not much, but I hope you can feel any of the love I’m trying to send virtually. I’m so glad you’re here.💕🫂
The message of this song to me ALSO reflects for all the beautiful souls stuck in ANIMAL SHELTERS.....Am I not pretty enough? Should I try it harder...
Thank you so much for this suggestion, I’ve seen it come up a few times now, so I have a feeling it will blow me away. Definitely making sure I put it on my lists of songs to get to.💕
I’m not sure if your first sentence is meant for me, or just for people in general, my aoologies. But I agree with the rest, just about anyone from any walk of life can and will be able to relate to this at some point(s) in life. And there’s one of the threads of common humanity running throughout us all.💕 Thanks for taking time to leave this comment.
@@BeccaDoss My apologies. "You are not Robinson Crusoe." means "You are not alone." (Robinson Crusoe being a fictional character in a (very famous in my day) Novel by Daniel Defoe, shipwrecked alone on a desert island)
The irony being, this had to be made in the US, because the states wouldn't accept Australian country singers, the video made it "acceptable" for the American audiences. - so in a word No she wasn't America apple pie enough
Yeah, I do. In my reaction channel. Where I’m sharing my reaction/analysis/dissection. It may not be for everyone, but there are a lot of people who tell me that’s one thing they enjoy most, the time and depth I take getting into these videos, and since that’s just how my brain works, I’m glad to know plenty of Mel resonate with it. I also know it’s not for everyone, so you’re not obligated to watch. I do hope you can use a little more kindness to talk to someone on the other side of a screen, even if you don’t enjoy the material. It doesn’t bother me, because I’m more than happy to talk however much I feel the songs deserve, but it’s just human kindness to say things in a way that’s not just negative. That said, you’re still always welcome here, as is everyone.
G’Day Becca, yes Kasey has a great deal of hits but if you want another like that I would Suggest The Captain live performance written and released around the same time. Pretty enough was written to confront the radio stations because they would not play her records for some of the reasons she sang. First time visitor, great job.🇦🇺🫶
I definitely wanted to make the next one of hers I did a live performance, so thanks for the suggestion! So happy to have you here, thanks so much for taking time to watch and leave such a kind comment. It makes my heart smile knowing others can enjoy the things I share. I appreciate you!💕
The best thing I could hear, thank you so much for sharing this-I’m beyond thrilled to be able to provide a bit of less-alone-ness, at least while you were watching. Thank you, and I appreciate you so much.💕

This was Kasey's first big hit., and you're right. It was sold, as a single, mostly to women. I have it on the album " The Captain". But I'm glad it was on there.
Another good one along these lines is "Seventeen" by Janis Ian.
