My first concert to see was Janis. I got a hug and a kiss after the show from her, and get her autograph. I still have it after all these years. no one like her...ever
Janis was a one of a kind! Still after all these years , their still isn’t anyone has even come close to her! It goes to show that you can teach people to sing but you can’t teach them how to feel. And that’s what was so special about her ! She poured her soul into every performance and didn’t just merely sing! Janis you have a piece of my heart baby!
She is so raw and completely exposed in her performance, letting everything out from deep within. I'm a singer, and I've had problems with smoking, alcohol, and drugs. When I first started listening to Janis it gave me the courage to start singing again, even though my voice is forever changed. She's one of the artists who showed me you don't have to be perfect or an opera star to give a powerful performance, in fact it can be more real in your own way. Thank you Janis. RIP.
20 years old here..and a singer in a band..she is my total inspiration...piss on the autotune singers of today. Janis knows how to throw down and get it right!
Her best version of this song IMO. The soul is just pouring out of her. And the raw emotion and primal nature of her singing, well what can you say, IMO you can count on one hand, or perhaps less than one hand, the singers who had the ability to do this, Female, or Male.
I was there at this concert in Frankfurt. She surprised all of us & asked us to stay after the first show for a 2nd show, this taping. Then Janis told all of us to come up on the stage. It was a wild night. I was in the army at the time stationed in Wurzburg Germany.
This performance is absolutely the bomb!!!!!!!!! She is so switched into it all, and the band are brilliant as always! God i liove this woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Peace RIP Janis Lyn Joplin ! Celizamite.
There are divine voices at many genres of music, but Janis has taken live to a whole new level, you start singing with her, but after few seconds you just want to listen.
WOW MAN!!!How in the HELL can you TOP this MAGNIFICENT,BRILLIANT,CATCHY,WELL WRITTEN Song Performed LIVE in a MEZMORIZING & HEPNOTIC Way By THE IMMORTAL JANIS JOPLIN??CAN"T BE DONE!!!!YA Know she didn't leave us with alot of her MUSIC 'cause she died too young ,BUT man every song she'd recorded are packed FULL of EMOTIONS,ENERGY & CLASS,hits you like a TON of bricks it's that POWERFUL.JANIS would Definately be the first woman of HARD ROCK,No denying the hard edged rhythm & solos....... ,
NICE! never seen this one... she was something else... i saw her a number of times in the city... she was out of her time slot then actually... but she rocked it, and people knew it was good even though her bluesy style wasnt the usual pychedelics music of choice and all... she was an icon....
Raw passion, blues & soul....How do you explain this to those who do not listen/hear/feel with their emotions.? A waste of energy & time. You either get it or you don't....If you 'don't' get it, then I feel a loss for you. Janis put 100%+ into this performance. She cannot be faulted by any criticism of her life style & suffering (which was very great). Those who have ears to hear are blown away by it. Best performance IMO for pure passion & soul I have yet seen from her.
Magnificent ! But what could you expect from a supreme artist ! She bared her soul more than any other performer The Greeks have a word for it . Catharsis and Janis had it in bucketloads
She was young but she had known great pain through love. There's nothing more powerful than this raw performance. We miss you, Janis, and we'll always love you. Fly free now.
Just unreached. Maybe by Joe Cocker in his best times. Best female singer of all times. RIP Janis. Shakira , Adele, Pink and all the other female singers of our time, you cane go home. And stay there. That`s music and not the stuff I have to hear in the radio day by day.
1st heard Janis 40 years ago...she still has the emotion to touch one's soul and will for ocean's of time...thank you Janis for sharing your passion.....Forever!!
I first saw this video permance when it was 6,000 views. Now it's 600,951 views & still counting. I am so pleased that this MEGA performance has gone viral. "Janis Joplin" will live forever....YOU "Bastards" who have destroyed the contemperary music industry, will not.?
Janis was a pure, immaculate personification of the art, spirit, music and enterpise of those blessed times... may you rest in peace, Janis!... whatever you think the peace is...
I've not heard this performance for many months, & I'm all teared up now. I'm all broke up sad, trying not to cry, because I'm a man?...a man should not show emotional pain/sorrow.? Who made that madness up.? Janis gave us her experience of extream painful emotion. Maybe we need to feel such pain to experience life too the full? I would rather be dead than feel nothing. Those into 'Blues' will understand what I am talking about.
Thank you for getting me through some of the hardest times in my life with your beautiful music and soul Janice. Your music really has helped save a life. Her body may be gone but SHE LIVES ON FOREVER! RIP Wonderful Woman!
Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cubain and now...Amy Winehouse. They were all 27. Really too young to die. So sad ! But Janis...Still the unique, the best of the best....RIP all you dudes !
after seeing this video, i'm officially a hardcore janis joplin fan, and starting to loathe the "singers" that we have today. the defitiniton of pure raw soul is janis joplin.
When I listen to her, I feel alive again. Only a few singers have ever made me feel so emotional.... No one will ever fill her shoes in my lifetime anyway. Janis your sad life filled us with a passion that blessed us, who have had passionless lives.
I got no words to define this lady .. but one thing i can say is.. SHE IS THE GODDESS !!! Beauty at its best .. and nothing can match her voice its just tooooooooooooooooooooo good!!! LOVE HER ! Janis Till I die !!
Hubo una época en que las grandes cantantes no necesitaban aparecer medio desnudas ni con arreglos en todo el cuerpo y la cara; hubo una época en la que sólo tenían su gran voz y nivel de interpretación: en esa gran época se encuentra esta grandiosa cantante. Janis Joplin si que sabía como calentar a la audiencia.
My first concert to see was Janis. I got a hug and a kiss after the show from her, and get her autograph. I still have it after all these years. no one like her...ever
♥️
You were so blessed to have been hugged by our angel.
WOW !
WOW, amazing... so lucky of you.....
Fabulous times...and people
Those German kids learned about the blues that night. Straight from the queen.
dam strait
This was in Hollywood USA 🇺🇸
it's not only singing she does
she FEELS and BREATHES music
Janis was a one of a kind! Still after all these years , their still isn’t anyone has even come close to her! It goes to show that you can teach people to sing but you can’t teach them how to feel. And that’s what was so special about her ! She poured her soul into every performance and didn’t just merely sing! Janis you have a piece of my heart baby!
This is the best live performance ever, for me!
same here, brother
🤘
Jep

This is what soul looks like. Janis was the Goddess of Soul singing. Nobody to this day has ever gone to her level. Nobody will ever will.
It is hard to believe that this is 47 years ago, miss you Janis
20 years old here..and a singer in a band..she is my total inspiration...piss on the autotune singers of today. Janis knows how to throw down and get it right!
I agree.
Here she is 26, but I agree with you :)
Her best version of this song IMO. The soul is just pouring out of her. And the raw emotion and primal nature of her singing, well what can you say, IMO you can count on one hand, or perhaps less than one hand, the singers who had the ability to do this, Female, or Male.
No special effects, no auto tuner...just pure soul.❤️🎶❤️

Janis Joplin , Jimmy Hendrix and Jim Morrison . Only the best die young . Only wish i was around when they were
Queen of blues and soul music.
Nope. Just Queen of Bluesy Rock.
I love Janis and her Version of Ball and chain but queen of blues is Big Mama Thornton.
This performance is absolutely the bomb!!!!!!!!! She is so switched into it all, and the band are brilliant as always! God i liove this woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Peace RIP Janis Lyn Joplin !
Celizamite.
wow i have never seen this video before and i thought i had seen all her vids on here. now this is music, really great - cant say enough good things.
There are divine voices at many genres of music, but Janis has taken live to a whole new level, you start singing with her, but after few seconds you just want to listen.
Janis, one of a kind~~Love the powerful emotions in her singing~!
I love you Janis, for letting us enjoy you even in this era. The amount of your passion is like you knew You will still be here.
WOW MAN!!!How in the HELL can you TOP this MAGNIFICENT,BRILLIANT,CATCHY,WELL WRITTEN Song Performed LIVE in a MEZMORIZING & HEPNOTIC Way By THE IMMORTAL JANIS JOPLIN??CAN"T BE DONE!!!!YA Know she didn't leave us with alot of her MUSIC 'cause she died too young ,BUT man every song she'd recorded are packed FULL of EMOTIONS,ENERGY & CLASS,hits you like a TON of bricks it's that POWERFUL.JANIS would Definately be the first woman of HARD ROCK,No denying the hard edged rhythm & solos.......
,
if i could go back in time, the first thing id do is go to this show
NICE! never seen this one... she was something else... i saw her a number of times in the city... she was out of her time slot then actually... but she rocked it, and people knew it was good even though her bluesy style wasnt the usual pychedelics music of choice and all... she was an icon....
Je la regarde de nouveau ce soir... Et qu'elle est incroyable ! je pense fort à elle ❤️
Oh my God is this Good.
Fantastic.

She bared her soul more than any other performer
The Greeks have a word for it .
Catharsis and Janis had it in bucketloads
Ball and chain is a classic as far as I'm concerned. The best, and listen to her pipes. She is (was) the best as far as female blues.
The best female singer who ever lived.
She was young but she had known great pain through love. There's nothing more powerful than this raw performance. We miss you, Janis, and we'll always love you. Fly free now.
JANIS JOPLIN Gives it her all!!...Very BEST Rockn' Blues!!! .....Heck it's just BLUES!!!!!!!!
What is it with this girls voice.. .
"SENSATIONAL"
Common world, fine somone whos close to her brilliance.. we;ve been waiting
long enough now...
I simply love her!!
Just unreached. Maybe by Joe Cocker in his best times. Best female singer of all times. RIP Janis. Shakira , Adele, Pink and all the other female singers of our time, you cane go home. And stay there. That`s music and not the stuff I have to hear in the radio day by day.
She has touched my soul.
I was 11, now am 65.
Still have the Cheap Thrills album.
Janis will always be in hearts.
Incredible performance. Best female singer ever?
Now this is how real singing is done... shes so passionate. And so real.
Impresionante !!

Да реально... блин...послушать ее песню,все равно что переспать с ней)))
Ditemi qualcuno che può cantare le sue canzoni.... Con questo trasporto ed intensità..? Non c'è Nessuna..... Lei è stata UNICA !!!!!!!
No matter how amazing and specific the video is, there will always be someone to dislike it. I wonder what would they like if they dislike this vid.
Que manera de interpretar,wow!que linda eras Janis,y que linda sonrrisa,me encantas toda tu.seguiras viva en mi x siempre!!
epic janis joplin. no blues singer today can hold a candle to her.
this is my favorite version of Ball and Chain
I first saw this video permance when it was 6,000 views. Now it's 600,951 views & still counting. I am so pleased that this MEGA performance has gone viral.
"Janis Joplin" will live forever....YOU "Bastards" who have destroyed the contemperary music industry, will not.?
best female singer ever. she was soooo cool
Janis was one 0f a kind musician for a hippie woman RIP REST NOW YOU'RE ONEO
OF A KIND 😇
I look forward to hearing her sing "live" when I am "dead", but not any time soon! Rock on, rock on!
that was beautiful..
Janis is my hero.
Janis was a pure, immaculate personification of the art, spirit, music and enterpise of those blessed times... may you rest in peace, Janis!... whatever you think the peace is...
Her voice and Stevie Rays guitar are playing in heaven right now

I've not heard this performance for many months, & I'm all teared up now. I'm all broke up sad, trying not to cry, because I'm a man?...a man should not show emotional pain/sorrow.? Who made that madness up.?

One Of The Best Live Performances...Janis Was An Experience...One And Only
Oh, Janis, YOU'RE BY FAR FAR FAR THE VERY VERY BEST.
Thanks friend for upoloading this video. It's just wonderful!
NOONE will ever be able to duplicate
that voice!
Personally, for me the two women of rock'n'roll are Patti Smith and Janis. And this is my favourite song. Thanks a lot.
Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cubain and now...Amy Winehouse. They were all 27. Really too young to die. So sad ! But Janis...Still the unique, the best of the best....RIP all you dudes !
they all was unique!
Ohhhhhh woooooow! RAW and screaming from her soul! Otherworldly and from another dimension! Absolutely love Janis!!!😭🎼👏
SHE'S THE QUEEN,DON'T HAVE AWORDS
She brings tears to my eyes...she changed the face of music forever! Rest In peace my soul sister
i love u!!! janis joplin FOREVER!!!!!!
Музыкальный оргазм 💥🎉
She gave us everything she had. I love & miss her so much! Happy Birthday Janis!
This is the best live performance ive ever seen!
I saw ALL of them live and I will never forget it till the day that I die!!!
after seeing this video, i'm officially a hardcore janis joplin fan, and starting to loathe the "singers" that we have today. the defitiniton of pure raw soul is janis joplin.
When I listen to her, I feel alive again. Only a few singers have ever made me feel so emotional.... No one will ever fill her shoes in my lifetime anyway. Janis your sad life filled us with a passion that blessed us, who have had passionless lives.
Favorite version of this song. Everything is like Baby Bear's Porridge.... just right.
Que manera de interpretar,cuantos cantantes quisieran entregarse a sus letras como lo hacia ella,nadie le va a llegar al tamaño,WOW!!!BELLA!!
The best and most talented singer of all time because she is born once in 1000 years
I wanna be a hippie
This Intensity was never reached again!
Big up Janis Joplin. Her voice.... still unequaled to this day and noone can compare ❤️
Those are beautiful words......nicely said.
I've watch this so many times...if it was a vinyl record it would totally fkin "shredded".
I got no words to define this lady .. but one thing i can say is..
SHE IS THE GODDESS !!! Beauty at its best .. and nothing can match her voice its just tooooooooooooooooooooo good!!!
LOVE HER !
Janis Till I die !!
Hubo una época en que las grandes cantantes no necesitaban aparecer medio desnudas ni con arreglos en todo el cuerpo y la cara; hubo una época en la que sólo tenían su gran voz y nivel de interpretación: en esa gran época se encuentra esta grandiosa cantante.
Janis Joplin si que sabía como calentar a la audiencia.
Wow! The quality of this clip is superb!!! 12 stars!!
Tremendo sentimiento janis, no te dejo de escuchar.
I would compare this to my favourite blues "Since I´ve been loving you" - Led Z.
