To me this is a song that Janis really shows her range. Her voice is more melodic and smoother and can still reach down and bring the power. The song itself is so great. No one else can do it justice.
There're others songs of Janis that she shows her range. I think to "One night stand", "Cry baby", "Catch me, daddy"...but she uses her voice in a mayestic way!
In the performing arts - singing, dancing, acting -you'll often hear the advice "leave yourself some place to go." To put it another way, you want to start out strong and then end stronger, on a high note, so to speak. Don't peak too early, right? "Leave yourself some place to go." One of the special things about Janis Joplin is she seems to start pretty much at that very top, at a fever pitch, but then she still has so much room to go. And we listeners are left awed that she was able to take us someplace we didn't know could be gotten to. She's helped by a tremendous band of course who (for the most part!) are able to keep up. I think she and the band just push each other, back and forth, ever higher and higher. You don't hear that in today's music, sadly. It doesn't seem to be an aesthetic that is appreciated anymore.
I came of age in the sixties, and I loved Janis. There was one song that I would never listen to for one reason or another. Then one day I listened, and it became one of my favorites. The song is “A Woman Left Lonely” check it out and see what you think.
@@rileyandmike I did know one of the guitar players who played for a while with her. I met him in Yorkville and his name was Brad Campbell he was in the Last Words when I knew him.
@@rileyandmike may be an urban legend but supposedly when she did that scream she was so committed to it that she some times soiled her self. Maybe that's what you smelled
BLESSED. We are BLESSED to have had the likes of Janis on this earth! I got my first Janis LP as a teen in the 70's, and it still feels as exciting, and fresh to hear that Queen belt out those passionate power wails of hers to this day!
I saw her live- Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia MD. You described it very well- so much energy - her, the band, the audience. Before the show started this really cool looking tall ,dark & cool hippie guy jumped over a couple of seats and sat down in a vacant one and smoked a j with a couple of fans. Right before the show, he ran towards the stage -hopped up and picked up his sax. It was Snookie Flowers!!!
As a Janis fan for most of my life, my favorite vocal performance from her is a version of "Little Girl Blue," sung live, on "The Tom Jones Show." You *must* hear this particular version of that song. It's far more powerful and moving, vocally, than even her own great studio version. I can *never* listen to her sing that song, live, on that show, without being moved to tears. It's incredibly emotional. Look for that video clip!
@@stevedahlberg8680 I think she was almost always in bell bottoms-- not sure if she was wearing high heels in that particular performance though. It's a slow song, a ballad (actually, it's a jazz standard from Nina Simone that Janis covered), so I don't know if I would describe her as "tearing it up" in the live "Tom Jones Show" version that she did in '69, but it is a very powerful and moving performance.
This is the Janis song I've been waiting for you to do. Her voice on the screams has an incredible quality. She sounds like a chorus with all the tones coming out of her mouth at once. I've never heard another female singer with such an intriguing tone.
Such an excellent groove on this one.. Here's another suggestion for Female Friday, try Rickie Lee Jones, either "Danny's All-star Joint" , or "Chuck-E's in Love"...
I requested a couple of Rickie Lee songs months and months ago but I think she (or her record label) blocks her stuff. You rarely see reactions to her videos on TH-cam if at all. But, she's definitely one of the great female artists...
@@surlechapeau that's why I mentioned that one first, it's definitely a great song!! And yes, Amber would LOVE the horns! Wilburn Reactions covered that one, earlier this year, if you look it up, it didnt get blocked.
You guys need to react to “I Need A Man To Love” by Janis. It’s my favorite from her because its her most powerful performance and she sounds like her vocal chords are about to rip outta her throat. “Little Girl Blue” and “Kosmic Blues” are my favorite too. Her live performance of those songs are so bluesy and emotional so good y’all.
Female Friday suggestion: Brazilian singer Asrtud Gilberto! Check out her live 1964 rendition of the Bossa Nova classic The Girl From Ipanema, with the saxophone of Stan Getz.
Hey you two, I know you’ll love Etta James, she was a huge inspiration to Janis. Please react to Etta James, “Sunday Kind of Love” (cover of Ella Fitzgerald) “I’d Rather Go Blind” “At Last”.
“Summertime” has to be my all time favorite, although “Piece of My Heart” is a very close second. Discovered this when I was 14 in 1968; I was devastated when she joined the “27 Club.” RIP Pearl.
You mentioned imagining how it must have been to see her live. There is a live outdoor stage performance of hers and the camera gets some shots of the crowd. Mama Cass of the Mamas and the Papas - a great singer herself - is sitting there just amazed at Janis’ performance.
Love Janis. Saw her in concert in the 60's. She used to belt whiskey live on stage straight from the bottle. I think that's what keeps her voice in check. Love your choices in music.
In interviews I've listened to..she mentions to Bonnie that she gets frustrated when her band isn't were she's at in certain parts of a song. It's great that you picked up on that...when she says "get up" you better "get up, and move". ❤️ you guys.
Jay/Amber, time for y'all to get back Joe Cocker! You'll love his "Unchain My Heart" and "Feeling Alright" . He's got the same passion as your girl Janis!!
Ha! Thanks surle for the spelling correction! Between my big fingers on this phone keyboard, and Auto Correct, I do occasionally invent a new phrase. 🤣
She was amazing felt like she mesmerized the entire audience with her soul she gave her all even when she was drinking straight Jack onstage what a concert takes you away
Another great one, thanks guys. I would love to see what you think of the soundtrack recording of 'Stay With Me' from The Rose. Incredible album and Bette Midlers passion and performance comes the closest to touching Janis I've ever heard. A knock-down, drag-out side of Midler people sometimes forget.
My husband and I grew up in the 60's and there was a lot of great female singers but when Janis first made her mark we were both completely blown away by her grit and gravel voice! And we still are! When we listen to female artists today there's only a handful that we actually like because like my hubby says, "They all sound the same, like Alvin and the Chipmunks on helium!"
You are so correct. Although I do have respect for Lady Gaga. Back "in the day" musicians tried to be creative in music. Now it's more about stage performance and fitting a formula. Glad I grew up when I did.
Janis has that unique gritty voice. I suggest you listen to a very young group of five sisters and brothers called Liliac (Lily-Aak: which is Romanian for Vampire Bat). The Lead singer Melody has a very gritty gravelly voice. They do excellent covers like "I hate myself for loving you", "Enter Sandman" and "Crazy Train", and have some original work like "Mars" and Sail Away". The early videos are hard to believe that they have so much talent, so young. While not my favorite song, "The Trooper" showcases how talented these young people are, when Ethan who is maybe 12, rips on the guitar.
YES our girl Janis!! Perfect way to ramp up our weekend. This one gave me cold chills today. Her Rock N Soul Power is definitely unique to her own style & character .. gotta love her!!! Thnx Amber & Jay ❣️ Have an awesome weekend. Peace Out ☮️🥰🤘🏼
the one and only Janis her music it's just legendary unfortunately she had a extremely short career but even though she left a massive mark in rock history and open a huge market for all the upcoming new female artists even til this days she still a role model for our younger generation
One of Janis' underrated songs is MOVE OVER. She is in full tilt control of her party animal as she invites you to join in. Get up and boogie baby!! The party is on and Janis Joplin is belting one out for you.. What else do you need?
Before I started watching your reactions, I already knew who Janis was and was familiar with a couple of her songs. But through you, I have experienced so much more of what she can do and have become a huge fan. Such a rare and special talent! Some people don't need to be in this world long, to make a huge impact that goes on and on through the generations. Janis truly poured her life out in every song she sang!
Oh my Janis was so great ! An amazing voice! I l started listening to her , when I was around 12. My mom heard it and said what? You should have been born in the 60's . Lol born in 75. Great music !
Love your review and positivity guys. It's great that u let the artist play for a good stretch before interrupting and commenting. Yes been a big fan of Janis for so long, she was truly one of a kind.
Can’t go wrong with Janis, LOVE her!!! There is like a dozen or more songs yet to hit up for Janis, she is one massive rabbit hole and you’re not even halfway down! Can’t wait for the next Janis reaction!!
For a future Female Friday reaction you should try this song I'm suggesting here! You know how great Ann and Nancy Wilson and Heart are. You know how great Led Zeppelin is. Well you need to check out Heart's cover of the Led Zeppelin song "Battle of Evermore"! Not only is it amazing but you will experience a different side of both sisters than you have ever seen!!
Great reaction! I’ve been waiting for you to get to this. Welcome to yet another side of the great Janis Joplin! “Half Moon” is another good tune; a little softer (in JJ terms anyway) rocker she sings beautifully.
It would be nice to see you react to some of her appearances on the Dick Cavett Show. There are some great snippets of interviews and beautiful live music. 🌺✌️
Janice used to play at Threadgills in Austin,Tx. My dad Bill Neely played there too. My dad loved the way she sang. She was never treated the way she should have been because she was different. Janice was the best.
On the second DVD of that Dick Cavett Show you were sent is this live performance and interviews with her. The DVD has three interviews and performances by her.
Fun reaction and I tend to forget about this song so it was good to hear it again. You know how you covered summertime and some others and that was with her backing band Big Brother and the holding company? They were earlier and they were great and they were more raw in psychedelic but later she started working with the Full Tilt Boogie band like this one. They're very good and much more polished and not psychedelic. I like both arrows for sure.
There will never be another unique musical figure like Janis in a million years, that's for sure! She was the most intensely, orgasmic female singing power I've ever heard in rock & roll. As a rock & roll lady she stands in her own category above all others.
I remember subscribing to this channel after seeing the first reaction to Janis. It was one of those, "how can this exist and I didn't know about it?" moments, especially for Amber. You could see that a whole new world was about to open up for them both and I wanted to be along for the ride.
I grew up with a mother who was all about Janice Joplin I mean that was her girl! Growing up listening to all of her songs it’s such a vibe it’s really everything, the woman was brilliant
Just wanted to say that I really like you guys and your song selections. And let Amber know that she is such a beautiful lady. Jay you seem like an awesome guy as well but Amber just radiates. You guys are so lucky to have found each other. Much love.
To me this is a song that Janis really shows her range. Her voice is more melodic and smoother and can still reach down and bring the power. The song itself is so great. No one else can do it justice.
There're others songs of Janis that she shows her range. I think to "One night stand", "Cry baby", "Catch me, daddy"...but she uses her voice in a mayestic way!
Amber is a deep soul. Janis will not be forgotten. Pain and love evident in her artistry. Love you guys!!
Rob Squad Amber that is, lol!
You guys were my first reaction channel. I am 70 years old and I love how you both enjoy the music I grew up to!
@@RiverRat1953I’m with ya brother I’m 71. I’m going on 3 years in the family. I love these kids! And their kids!
A lesser known but amazing Janis tune is "A Woman Left Lonely"
possibly the greatest heart felt soulful expressions of her voice. that she left us.
YESSSSS
In the performing arts - singing, dancing, acting -you'll often hear the advice "leave yourself some place to go." To put it another way, you want to start out strong and then end stronger, on a high note, so to speak. Don't peak too early, right? "Leave yourself some place to go." One of the special things about Janis Joplin is she seems to start pretty much at that very top, at a fever pitch, but then she still has so much room to go. And we listeners are left awed that she was able to take us someplace we didn't know could be gotten to.
She's helped by a tremendous band of course who (for the most part!) are able to keep up. I think she and the band just push each other, back and forth, ever higher and higher. You don't hear that in today's music, sadly. It doesn't seem to be an aesthetic that is appreciated anymore.
I had the same exact thought!
I came of age in the sixties, and I loved Janis. There was one song that I would never listen to for one reason or another. Then one day I listened, and it became one of my favorites. The song is “A Woman Left Lonely” check it out and see what you think.
That may be my fave Janis tune 😊
Such a beautiful song
I love watching all your reactions, but ESPECIALLY when it's Janis ❤❤❤
I was just about to say the exact same thing!!
Great choice. You can never go wrong with Janis. She has so much soul and grit in her voice.
Only thing I remember from her was body odor
@@rileyandmike You got that close. I could have taken some body odour if I could have gotten that close to her. Lol She was a hippie, free spirit.
@@Cynthia... I did when I was a kid - all I remember was the odor.
@@rileyandmike I did know one of the guitar players who played for a while with her. I met him in Yorkville and his name was Brad Campbell he was in the Last Words when I knew him.
@@rileyandmike may be an urban legend but supposedly when she did that scream she was so committed to it that she some times soiled her self. Maybe that's what you smelled
You guys gotta listen to:
“To Love Somebody - Janis Joplin” Live on Dick Cavett.
An all time Janis performance IMO.
I love listening to Janice talk. She's so cool.
And it's a Bee Gees song!
@@tombeyerlein3813 I know, right!?! It’s a double whammy for them 🙂
Oh yeah. So much soul. She owns the song. The interview is pretty cool too.
🛎 Joan Armatrading - “The Weakness In Me”
🛎 Joan Baez - “Diamonds And Rust”
🛎 Natalie Merchant - “Carnival”
🛎 Fiona Apple - “Criminal”
All excellent suggestions! I've been requesting Natalie Merchant for a while.
Criminal!!!!! Yes 🙌🏻
Carnival is a great song
Move Over is another great Janis song that gets overlooked 🔥
BLESSED. We are BLESSED to have had the likes of Janis on this earth! I got my first Janis LP as a teen in the 70's, and it still feels as exciting, and fresh to hear that Queen belt out those passionate power wails of hers to this day!

You 2 are best with these reaction videos. Grew up with Janis Jimi, Jim Morrison etc. FANTASTIC music and love to see your appreciation.
I AGREE THEY ARE THE BEST REACTION PODCAST BY FAR
As a Janis fan for most of my life, my favorite vocal performance from her is a version of "Little Girl Blue," sung live, on "The Tom Jones Show." You *must* hear this particular version of that song. It's far more powerful and moving, vocally, than even her own great studio version. I can *never* listen to her sing that song, live, on that show, without being moved to tears. It's incredibly emotional. Look for that video clip!
Definitely! I sneak this request in wherever I can. 😂
Is that the one where she's in high heels and bell bottoms slacks and just tearing it up?
@@stevedahlberg8680 I think she was almost always in bell bottoms-- not sure if she was wearing high heels in that particular performance though. It's a slow song, a ballad (actually, it's a jazz standard from Nina Simone that Janis covered), so I don't know if I would describe her as "tearing it up" in the live "Tom Jones Show" version that she did in '69, but it is a very powerful and moving performance.
@@kazzaMcFazza I rarely see people react to it, and I don't know why, because it's amazing!
@@stevedahlberg8680I think "Ball & Chain" is the one you're thinking of.
I am 70 and this brings back so many feelings and memories.
It is impossible to sit still listening to this song! Love,love,love her.
This is the Janis song I've been waiting for you to do. Her voice on the screams has an incredible quality. She sounds like a chorus with all the tones coming out of her mouth at once. I've never heard another female singer with such an intriguing tone.
This is, what, TEN Janis songs you've done? Wow! Keep 'em coming!
Such an excellent groove on this one..
Here's another suggestion for Female Friday, try Rickie Lee Jones, either "Danny's All-star Joint" , or "Chuck-E's in Love"...
Danny's All Star Joint!! Great song, the voice and horns for Amber!
I requested a couple of Rickie Lee songs months and months ago but I think she (or her record label) blocks her stuff. You rarely see reactions to her videos on TH-cam if at all. But, she's definitely one of the great female artists...
@@surlechapeau that's why I mentioned that one first, it's definitely a great song!! And yes, Amber would LOVE the horns!
Wilburn Reactions covered that one, earlier this year, if you look it up, it didnt get blocked.
"We Belong Together" from the Naked Songs Live
I LOVED the "POP POP" album.
When janis had the cozmik blues band. So much to her voice and vibe. Just fantastic.
I'm an old hippy and Janice was always playing. Still love me some Janice.
Absolutely positively my favorite Janice Joplin song
You guys need to react to “I Need A Man To Love” by Janis.
It’s my favorite from her because its her most powerful performance and she sounds like her vocal chords are about to rip outta her throat.
“Little Girl Blue” and “Kosmic Blues” are my favorite too.
Her live performance of those songs are so bluesy and emotional so good y’all.
KOSMIC BLUESSSSS YEAHHHH
AND THE SONG MAYBE....THE BEST FOR ME.
All three suggestions here are pure fire.
Female Friday suggestion: Brazilian singer Asrtud Gilberto! Check out her live 1964 rendition of the Bossa Nova classic The Girl From Ipanema, with the saxophone of Stan Getz.
Beautiful song. Sad story. Highly recommended.
Agree big time.
Great idea!!
Hey you two, I know you’ll love Etta James, she was a huge inspiration to Janis. Please react to Etta James, “Sunday Kind of Love” (cover of Ella Fitzgerald) “I’d Rather Go Blind” “At Last”.
Love this one. No one can match Janis. Keep them coming
Beth Hart "caught out in the rain" live at Albert hall comes close.
Janis was without peers in her day.
my favorite Janis song
Can't go wrong with Janis.🤘🤘
“Summertime” has to be my all time favorite, although “Piece of My Heart” is a very close second. Discovered this when I was 14 in 1968; I was devastated when she joined the “27 Club.” RIP Pearl.

They have done this one
That was from the Monterey Pop Festival.
YES! Next should be "Move Over"
Still gonna push Sophie B. Hawkins - "Damn, Wish I Was Your Lover"
I agree about "Damn, I wish I Was Your Lover". I haven't seen too many people do that one yet.
Janis knews how to use her incredible voice ❤❤❤
Love Janis. Saw her in concert in the 60's. She used to belt whiskey live on stage straight from the bottle. I think that's what keeps her voice in check. Love your choices in music.
Wow, Janis knock this song out of the park, what a talent and range...Great Pick!!!
You should listen to Melissa Ethridge " I'm the only one" she has a lot of the same characteristics as Janice..
"Kozmik Blues" is pure Janis rockin' soul :-)
I saw Janis and Big Brother in concert in Cleveland in late 60s. She often ducked behind the large amps to swig her Southern Comfort whiskey.
Saw her at the Grande Ballroom in late 60's. She made her entrance coming in through the crowd. Came between me and my friends. The greatest.
In interviews I've listened to..she mentions to Bonnie that she gets frustrated when her band isn't were she's at in certain parts of a song. It's great that you picked up on that...when she says "get up" you better "get up, and move". ❤️ you guys.
YEEEEESSSSS! One of her best. Their's a live version that's incredible. Janis rocks!
ETTA JAMES, ETTA JAMES, ETTA JAMES!!! Came before Janis!!!
❤❤❤ETTA JAMES!!
Yes…Etta James and Aretha as well ❤️
I guess they are everywhere…can’t wait to hear about them negatives…..Janis is the bomb
Thank you for the reminder!! Great ladies ❤❤
That’s true. But they both never sung a version of Try (just a little bit harder).
Jay/Amber, time for y'all to get back Joe Cocker! You'll love his "Unchain My Heart" and "Feeling Alright" . He's got the same passion as your girl Janis!!
Joe Cocker could make Any song his Own!
Ha! Thanks surle for the spelling correction! Between my big fingers on this phone keyboard, and Auto Correct, I do occasionally invent a new phrase. 🤣
@@resurrectionwaiting9294 you got it. LOL
Oh my lord, this might be my favorite Janis song. She was my favorite soul singer.
Hands down, my absolute FAVORITEST Janis track!
She was amazing felt like she mesmerized the entire audience with her soul she gave her all even when she was drinking straight Jack onstage what a concert takes you away
So many great Janis songs. Once again, "Kozmic Blues." You won't be disappointed. And "Little Girl Blue" is another awesome song.
Awesome reaction. My aunt Bea is 65 now & Janice was her favorite period. Try "SUMMER TIME" It will melt ur heart. ♥️💯😎
I've honestly never heard Janis with such a funky backing track. She sounds more... "together" than I 'm used to hearing. I like this!
You guys are a PERFECTLY-MATCHED COUPLE!!! I’m so jealous!
Loved her voice and energy!
She had a gifted stretch of voices and put emotion into every song. Try her version of summer time. A treat for all fans.
Janis Joplin move Over. That needs to be your next reaction on female Friday. Happy 2023 to you all. Looks like you were having fun at Disney world.
Janis with Big Brother and the Holding Company - first album is most awesome!✌
Another great one, thanks guys. I would love to see what you think of the soundtrack recording of 'Stay With Me' from The Rose. Incredible album and Bette Midlers passion and performance comes the closest to touching Janis I've ever heard. A knock-down, drag-out side of Midler people sometimes forget.
Joss Stone and Melissa Ethridge performing Cry Baby/Piece of my Heart is amazing.
Try Bessie Smith, "Give Me A Pigfoot and A Bottle of Beer" (1934)
Bessie was called
The Empress of The Blues.
Your Both So Right There Is And Never Will Be Any Female Singer Like Janis Never ✌️👍
Janis Joplin what can’t we say except great 👍
I love Janis Joplin, too!! And this is one of my favorite songs! Thanks!!
Directly to my heart and soul.
Perfection!! My absolute favorite of all time. Thanks guys - love her, all her songs and your reactions are priceless.
You will love her for the rest of your life 💓☮️😻

She was such a sad little girl with such a huge voice and such a beautiful soul.😢
I was grinning from ear to ear when you put on the headphones. I love The Pearl
For a future Female Friday reaction you should try this song I'm suggesting here! You know how great Ann and Nancy Wilson and Heart are. You know how great Led Zeppelin is. Well you need to check out Heart's cover of the Led Zeppelin song "Battle of Evermore"! Not only is it amazing but you will experience a different side of both sisters than you have ever seen!!
Agree.
MY FAVORITE SONG OF HERS!!!💋💋💋💋
Great reaction! I’ve been waiting for you to get to this. Welcome to yet another side of the great Janis Joplin!
“Half Moon” is another good tune; a little softer (in JJ terms anyway) rocker she sings beautifully.
i can't IMAGINE what it was like hearing janis on the radio and seeing her in concert!! you all who did are sooooo lucky!
YES! One of my faves
It would be nice to see you react to some of her appearances on the Dick Cavett Show. There are some great snippets of interviews and beautiful live music. 🌺✌️
Absolutely right!
Her version of “To Love Somebody” on Dick Cavett hits me in the soul.
I sent her the Cavett DVD set that has three interviews and performances by her (as well as Sly & Family Stone, Paul Simon and George Harrison)
@@kateritter5765 Cool! Bet that was well-received!
What a good idea.
Janice used to play at Threadgills in Austin,Tx. My dad Bill Neely played there too. My dad loved the way she sang. She was never treated the way she should have been because she was different. Janice was the best.
On the second DVD of that Dick Cavett Show you were sent is this live performance and interviews with her. The DVD has three interviews and performances by her.
A pure soul freight train, fueled by Southern Comfort
Love Janis! Carol King another greater singer from that time love to hear some of her music.
I saw Janis in concert twice. Once when I was 19, best show ever. She drank a bottle of Jack during her set.
I had a brief conversation with Janis. Got the feeling we could've been friends.
Fun reaction and I tend to forget about this song so it was good to hear it again. You know how you covered summertime and some others and that was with her backing band Big Brother and the holding company? They were earlier and they were great and they were more raw in psychedelic but later she started working with the Full Tilt Boogie band like this one. They're very good and much more polished and not psychedelic. I like both arrows for sure.
Eras
one of my fave Joplin songs! ♥ I suggest her songs: Kozmic Blues & Move Over
Just sitting here binge watching you wonderful, adorable people listen to music...works for me!!
You can never go wrong with Janis. Love her music.
There will never be another unique musical figure like Janis in a million years, that's for sure! She was the most intensely, orgasmic female singing power I've ever heard in rock & roll. As a rock & roll lady she stands in her own category above all others.
I remember subscribing to this channel after seeing the first reaction to Janis. It was one of those, "how can this exist and I didn't know about it?" moments, especially for Amber. You could see that a whole new world was about to open up for them both and I wanted to be along for the ride.
Adding another request for Janis singing "Little Girl Blue" on the Tom Jones Show; she could make a pile of rocks cry with that performance.
This is my favorite JJ song. Glad you like it as much as I do.
I grew up with a mother who was all about Janice Joplin I mean that was her girl! Growing up listening to all of her songs it’s such a vibe it’s really everything, the woman was brilliant
