All three of these women are such gifts. Brandi was a perfect choice for this song, and I can't get over Sheryl sitting there with her glasses on, just quietly killing it on piano.
I absolutely agree. Women held the stage, and still do, I remember the 90’s, Lilith Fair, , women in song, such strength.Keep it up ladies..I’ll always be listening, thank you.
There are so few singers who can truly do a Bonnie Raitt song justice, but Brandi’s incredible voice and performance served as the perfect tribute. Amazing, so happy for Bonnie with a well deserved honor
Brandi Carlile was the perfect choice to sing this song. She didn't try to imitate Bonnie and made the song her own. Beautiful voice and tribute. And having Sheryl Crow play piano was inspired.
I start crying whenever I hear the opening chords to this song. I first heard it when I was a preteen being abused at home. I didn’t know a thing about romantic love but the first time I heard it, I was in public and completely broke down. I could never make my family love me and to this day, there’s no greater wound I carry. When people say, “This song saved my life,” this is the one that had that effect on me. It gave me the words and expression of pain and betrayal that I was too young to conjure up. Bonnie Raitt has a very special place in my heart because she also showed me I could write through my pain & loneliness. I just LOVE that Sheryl & Brandi are the ones covering this song. They’ve each touched my heart in a real way as well. This video was a gift to me on Christmas Eve, which has always been a time of deep sorrow for me. ❤ Thank you!
I can't imagine the pain you describe in your life, but I feel for you. I love Bonnie Raitt's music and share your sentiment about Sheryl and Brandi presenting it because I have faced my own extremely lonely and low times. Oner of Sheryl's songs impacted me first about 20 years ago and more recently, one of Brandi's songs help me ascend out of the lowest point of my life (ten years ago). I pray for you, as I pray every morning for others, that you feel and know that you are loved. The love that brings you comfort and strength to live your life. Peace to you.
I just miss these kind of singers nowadays. The songs you hear on the radio or on the television are all about thousands of adlibs and about ego. Brandi knows it's just all about the song and the story it tells. That's the way a performance touches the heart.
You are "literally" incorrect.I've seen this woman live15-20 times. There is not a better live performer than BC. She is transcendent. Do yourself a favor and go down the BC rabbit hole. She sings every genre like she invented it.
Brandi is appearing in a lot of these tribute shows and deservingly so. It gives her the exposure she deserves and gets more people to hear this talented woman. What a beautiful performance!
@BrandiCarlile-u5x Your talent is undeniable and I’m happy that I along with the rest of the world gets to experience your music. Keep it going! Aloha!
Brandi Carlile is probably the the best singer artist in the 21st Century. And Sheryl Crow on piano was absolute perfection. And now I'm off to hear Bonnie singing with Bruce on piano. Music doesn't get better than this.
Still does. Any aged person that hears this song, feels it. Doesn't matter if Teddy Swims is singing, Brandi, or any of many others. Done well, you feel it in your guts whether this is your kinda music or not. That's a universal song.
Sheryl Crow looks like the music teacher from Kellison Elementary accompanying the star student singing at an Open House at school. Seriously, she and Brandi Carlisle need to do a duet album. These two are amazing.
OMG! The way Brandi Carlile sings this song makes me feel all of the emotion of the songs story - the breakup - nearly bringing a tears to my eyes. Beautiful! Well done, Miss Carlile.
Thanks to Brandi for continuing to reminds us of all the great artists that have come along with such musical excellence, singing this classic Bonnie Raitt version, like Joni Mitchell and Tanya Tucker, she redefines human generosity and her soaring vocals to celebrate another, truly a gift for the ages, another awesome version of I can't make you love me, thanks.. Bravo Bonnie and thanks Sheryl Crow for the keyboard treatment, just beautiful , magical music!
Perfection. This song came out in the middle of my divorce, and it still makes me cry 32 years later. The perfect song sung perfectly. Thank you, Bonnie, Brandi, and Sheryl.
Super impressed with Sheryl on this; didn't know she had the chops. Let's never forget that this wasn't written by Bonnie, but by Reid and Shamblin. But Bonnie and Brandi are also artists for the ages.
who else is sobbing while watching this seriously what a song and second of all Brandi carlile doing a cover of it oh my God I just hit you like a ton of bricks a gut-wrenching song about heartbreak
Wow, so true! I was SO happy to see everyone stand! They took their cue from Bonnie. I loved how genuinely touched she looked. A fitting tribute to Bonnie who so greatly deserves it, and major, huge props to Brandi and Sheryl. Way to go ladies! All 3 of you!
It was one of the best performances last night. I love when someone really sing and the words are so beautiful. Tearful. Great tribute to Bonnie Raitt.
I saw Brandi at a beautiful outdoor concert last summer. Her voice is so beautiful. Such a talent and I’ll never forget those songs from her live in concert. This tribute to Bonnie was magical.
I saw Brandi & I knew this would be good, and she knocked it out of the park! Not many people could cover a Bonnie Raitt song and really deliver, what a great performance ❣️❣️❣️
@ Brandi, I am so extremely grateful for you and all you’ve done for Joni Mitchell. I love your music and you singing with you beautiful wife, Katherine 💚❤️🩷💙💛🩵💜💖🧡
@ It means so much to me that you answered me, I really love your music and the 2 bald bitches, the twins are fantastic. My husband and I live in Washington and go to The Gorge as often as possible.✨👏❣️
Never heard of Brandi Carlile, but wow! Thank you for not destroying this Bonnie Raitt classic. Such a beautiful rendition of such a beautiful song piece❤
A simply breathtaking performance by Brandi Carlisle in partnership with Sheryl Crow.. Brandi is growing as an artist and this was an example of her finest work.
Bonnie Raitt is my favorite female musician. I've been a fan for 51 yrs Her music has gotten me through really tough times, heartbreaking loss, loneliness, addiction, life and death situations and also pure joy, happiness, falling in love, singing with my band, learning how to play my guitar and belting out "Love Me Like A Man" and blasting BR in my car and putting on my headphones late at night looking at the stars. She has always been with me Bonnie is my ♥️ Thank you friend
She hits those high notes that seem limitless . You have to listen to this on a good piece of Audio gear to appreciate the tonal control in her voice .
It's been a long time since I've seen Sheryl Crow behind an acoustic piano. So on top of being the whole package, she's also a great accompanist? Tasteful adlibs, time is dead on of course, and sort of a no-nonsense approach. She's such an impressive musician.
They so did justice to this beautiful song. If I hadn't known, I could easily believe it was Bonnie singing live...and Sheryl Crow on the piano! What and added surprising bonus. I tip my hat to three fabulous women.
Brandi Carlisle was even great before she "blew up" in popularity. I'm surprised people didn't "catch on" sooner. Her festival performance, chills. Radiates so much "energy" in her performances.
@unrepentantoffender188 1, so I don't mistakenly get banned from posting comments, 2 because she did not LITERALLY blow up. It's meant figuratively, hence quotation marks.
I need to take a moment to commend Mike Reid and Alan Shamblin for composing such a wonderful song. One of the greatest ever written. Without them none of this was possible. Fine performance tonight and we love you Bonnie Raitt.
Brandi honors and respects those artists who inspired her. This performance with Sheryl accompanying on piano is a true tribute. It shows respect for the artist and the music.
Bonnie Raitt knows which songs to cover. Always made my wife cry. This was written by Mike Reid, former defensive lineman for the Cincinnati Bengals. How cool to have that much talent.
This honor is very long overdue for Bonnie Raitt! So happy she finally got the Kennedy Center Honors. I wished Aretha Franklin was still here to witness her get it. They were pretty close
@stringskahler one-sided love is painful, but the way the lyrics lay it out, and the way Bonnie sings it, would even break the heart of a Tesla Cybertruck.
All three of these women are such gifts. Brandi was a perfect choice for this song, and I can't get over Sheryl sitting there with her glasses on, just quietly killing it on piano.
Was thinking Exactly the about Sheryl. Such class, her playing made it....wow. Brandi has awesome range 🎸🎶🙏💙🌹🤠
Three of my absolute favorite women in music.
I absolutely agree. Women held the stage, and still do, I remember the 90’s, Lilith Fair, , women in song, such strength.Keep it up ladies..I’ll always be listening, thank you.
Right?!?
❤
There are so few singers who can truly do a Bonnie Raitt song justice, but Brandi’s incredible voice and performance served as the perfect tribute. Amazing, so happy for Bonnie with a well deserved honor
It’s not a Bonnie Raitt song, she sang it in the same way that every contemporary singer in the world has done, she didn’t write it
@@jimfyfe4015 she owns the song ❤
Susan Tedeschi
This is a beautiful rendition, Prince also did a totally amazing version 💜
@@jimfyfe4015 Mike Reid & Allen Shamblin
Brandi Carlile is criminaly underrrated. Its about time Bonnie was honored.
Amen
@@Hinz2005 On BOTH counts, Brandi AND Bonnie
The masses don't like her because they don't hear any AUTO TUNE on her records. The truth is dying a little more every day
who underrated her ?
@@badacob nobody, people just like to say that.

Brandi Carlisle on vocals, Sheryl Crow on piano, honoring Bonnie Raitt. Doesn’t get better. ❤️🩹
Brandi's rendition was flawless, made me cry.
Made Bonnie about cry too.
@@n.j.7848 me too!
She was flawless with it 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
She goes under everyboyˋs Skin and right into the Soul.
Me too!!
I just miss these kind of singers nowadays. The songs you hear on the radio or on the television are all about thousands of adlibs and about ego. Brandi knows it's just all about the song and the story it tells. That's the way a performance touches the heart.
Nowadays most of so called singers don’t sing live. All they do is lip sync and sell expensive tickets milking the fans
I can literally hear the autotune
Absolutely !!!!
Love her rendition!
You are "literally" incorrect.I've seen this woman live15-20 times. There is not a better live performer than BC. She is transcendent. Do yourself a favor and go down the BC rabbit hole. She sings every genre like she invented it.
once again Sheryl showed her musical talent with the wonderful way she played the piano.
Brandi makes me cry just about every time I watch her perform. And Sheryl held her own on the keys! Beautiful work honoring a true Queen!
Brandi is appearing in a lot of these tribute shows and deservingly so. It gives her the exposure she deserves and gets more people to hear this talented woman. What a beautiful performance!
Reminds me of when Sarah Bareilles sang the hell out of Laura Nyro's "Stoney End"
@BrandiCarlile-u5x Your talent is undeniable and I’m happy that I along with the rest of the world gets to experience your music. Keep it going! Aloha!
Sheryl approximating Hornsby's piano part is really amazing 👏
I was going to ask: Where Was Bruce Hornsby?
(THAT is someone who needs a Kennedy Center Honor......BH)
The one cool thing about this human experience.. growing older... you know exactly what this feels like. It's achingly beautiful.
Brandi Carlile is probably the the best singer artist in the 21st Century. And Sheryl Crow on piano was absolute perfection. And now I'm off to hear Bonnie singing with Bruce on piano. Music doesn't get better than this.
No one more deserving than Bonnie Raitt for this and all other accolades. She, Joni and Sheryl are lifelong crushes.
❤️❤️❤️
Finally Bonnie Raitt receives what was long over due!!👏👏👏♥️ Congratulations Bonnie!!🥰
Brandi's pure, beautiful and incredibly gifted voice with just a piano...pure talent.
Sometimes there aren't words that can describe how truly beautiful something is. This is one of those times.
This piece of songwriting stood out amongst others in its day. Such an honest and vulnerable song. Beautiful tribute
Oh, yes, it was a big hit and so elegant...I am sure I'm not the only one who recalls it from decades ago...
Still does. Any aged person that hears this song, feels it. Doesn't matter if Teddy Swims is singing, Brandi, or any of many others. Done well, you feel it in your guts whether this is your kinda music or not. That's a universal song.
Sheryl Crow looks like the music teacher from Kellison Elementary accompanying the star student singing at an Open House at school. Seriously, she and Brandi Carlisle need to do a duet album. These two are amazing.
I can’t wait for Brandi’s night at the Kennedy center!
Greatest honor a artist can get is respect from their Peers and Sheryl Crow and Brandi did that- Bonnie Raitt Legend
Brandi and Sheryl - stellar performance!!
Cheryl's piano playing is stellar too...who knew?
I believe on one of her Quarantine Edition videos, she played piano, but this performance was top notch.
She was a music teacher.
@@trace123321and she has PERFECT PITCH
One of my favorite songs of all time. Bonnie Raitt’s voice is so haunting when she sings and Brandi and Sheryl did it justice.
Agreed!
@ Never. You are a gift to the world.
OMG! The way Brandi Carlile sings this song makes me feel all of the emotion of the songs story - the breakup - nearly bringing a tears to my eyes. Beautiful! Well done, Miss Carlile.
Brandi you JUST got a new fan. Bonnie fans are proud of your performance this night. Thank you and Sheryl for honoring The Great Bonnie Raitt
One of the best ballads of all time. Goosebumps every time I hear those first piano notes...
Thanks to Brandi for continuing to reminds us of all the great artists that have come along with such musical excellence, singing this classic Bonnie Raitt version, like Joni Mitchell and Tanya Tucker, she redefines human generosity and her soaring vocals to celebrate another, truly a gift for the ages, another awesome version of I can't make you love me, thanks.. Bravo Bonnie and thanks Sheryl Crow for the keyboard treatment, just beautiful , magical music!
Wow you put that so beautifully ❤
Brandi can SANG, Can't She?! DAMN!!
That was so beautiful! ❤❤❤
Love love love these women! Bonnie Raitt, Sheryl Crow, Brandi Carlile. BRAVO! 💕💕💕
Long past time Bonnie was honored. She is an amazing songstress. Pure Love. Thank you Brandi & Cheryl, amazing🙌🏼👏🏼🙏🏼☮️💚
Sheryl Crow did an amazing job on piano. That wasn't easy and she was so in tune and in control of the song. Love the little bluesy choices.
Perfection. This song came out in the middle of my divorce, and it still makes me cry 32 years later. The perfect song sung perfectly. Thank you, Bonnie, Brandi, and Sheryl.
Another musical performance of the year for Brandi.
Sheryl crow & Brandi Carlisle were the perfect choices for this song!❤
Super impressed with Sheryl on this; didn't know she had the chops. Let's never forget that this wasn't written by Bonnie, but by Reid and Shamblin. But Bonnie and Brandi are also artists for the ages.
😮
Met Allen at a songwriter fest. Got to hang with him all night special man. This was before it became her hit. Knew it was going to be great❤
Crow was a music teacher. She is a musician's musician.
I knew Sheryl killed it on all other instruments, but I didn’t know piano. Amazing! 🤩😍❤️
Sheryl é formada em piano e composição
who else is sobbing while watching this seriously what a song and second of all Brandi carlile doing a cover of it oh my God I just hit you like a ton of bricks a gut-wrenching song about heartbreak
Who knew Sheryl could play so well... and Brandi 😱

Never heard of Brandi Carlile, but wow! Thank you for not destroying this Bonnie Raitt classic. Such a beautiful rendition of such a beautiful song piece❤
Check out more of Brandi's music - all of it's amazing. She has 11 Grammys. And collaborates with so many other artists.
Brandi always brings it, but Sheryl is no slouch on the ivories. Nicely done.
So much talent in these 3 Ladies:Bonnie Raitt,vBrandi Carlisle & Sheryl Crow!
A simply breathtaking performance by Brandi Carlisle in partnership with Sheryl Crow.. Brandi is growing as an artist and this was an example of her finest work.

How many years will I hear BC sing before she stops surprising me?
What a gift. She is the best gift. Every time I hear her sing, I’m better.

Beautiful Brandi. Breathtaking Ms Crow on the piano. Bonnie is special so so special to all
I can’t believe what a fantastic performer Brandi Carlisle is! When she sings I feel it in my soul!
The most powerful rendition of this song I have ever heard. 😢 listened to this ten times in a row so far
Sheryl's piano performance is on another level. Adds depth in the song❤❤
Damn! You go Brandi!👏🏾…👏🏾…👏🏾…👏🏾…
When will they honour Sheryl Crow's brilliant career?! Congratulations to Bonnie Raitt! 🙌
Magic. Her slow vibrato is everything.
Deserves a Grammy for this performance!💥
Thats not how the grammys work buddy lol😅😅😅😅

Pretty brilliant!!! As usual for Brandi Carlisle....
Brandi knocked me off my feet! I’m standing in front of a wood burning stove that’s raging a fire and I have CHILLS! 🔥
Bonnie Raitt knows which songs to cover. Always made my wife cry. This was written by Mike Reid, former defensive lineman for the Cincinnati Bengals. How cool to have that much talent.
I had no idea that Sheryl Crow could play Piano like this!
I’ve heard this so many times all beautiful. This is my absolute favourite iteration. Just incredible
Saddest, truest song ever written.
So beautiful. One of my faves sung by another, played beautifully on the piano by yet another. ❤❤❤
One of the greatest songs ever written. This is such a perfect version.
Wowza, have always loved the Bonnie Raitt tune-so deep, melancholy & emotive…..chills, Brandi’s voice is ridiculously INCREDIBLY versatile!!!
This is real singing, no auto tune involved
That rasp in her voice on 2nd chorus sounds just like Bonnie Raitt! Unreal Talent in these 3 Ladies!
I love this performance.
Such respect for these three amazing women. Bravo.
This honor is very long overdue for Bonnie Raitt! So happy she finally got the Kennedy Center Honors. I wished Aretha Franklin was still here to witness her get it. They were pretty close
Brandi and Sheryl were awsome.
Great performance, I am really impressed by both!
Saddest song in the whole wide world; I cry every time I hear this song over the past 50-some years.
I second that emotion.
I agree, the saddest song I have ever heard. I don’t know how many times I have listened to it, but it makes me cry every time.
@stringskahler one-sided love is painful, but the way the lyrics lay it out, and the way Bonnie sings it, would even break the heart of a Tesla Cybertruck.
Brandi’s facial expressions …. Capture everything. Let alone her understated vocal and Sheryl’s amazing piano. Just perfect.
Wow and wow! Gorgeous version- And wow again didn't know what a great piano player Cheryl was!
Brandi sang this tribute SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! very good voice she has
I love these three singers!! That's what you call singing not rapping !! ❤
Holy crap! I had no idea Sheryl Crow could kill on the piano!!!
Where has this singer been? She’s so gifted and truly remarkable voice.
Brandi does it again and again and again!
That was amazingly beautiful ❤
Oh my God , this was otherworldly !!! Brandi is extraordinary !!!! A gift to us all. ❤️🩷❤️🩷❤️
Brandi Carlile absolutely found the soul of this song. Sheryl Crow stays out of the way beautifully as well
What a beautiful voice 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Bravo
