@@margaretmolloy257 Yeah brilliant and magical! Thanks to my parents I grew up listening to the 60's and the 70's I was only a teenager the first time I heard Janis playing on my uncle's radio and I remember saying to mysel "good lord who's that" So sad she died a young age.
No better artist than Janis to bring the emotion needed when mourning the loss of a loved one. Listening to her must bring you back into the room with your mom. My condolences.
They only talk about the drugs. She doesn't get the respect she deserves as a performer. Janis Joplin was so great, total commitment, balls to the walls, spilling her guts out like every song is her last. My favorite is her "Me and Bobby McGee".
She begins so calm and matter of fact though clearly a storm is brewing. By the half way point of the song, all hell has broken loose. Yet she is always in perfect control. Undoubtedly, Janice was one of the greatest blues artists of all time.
As soon as I get the tears out of my eyes, I'll be able to type something completely inadequate about what kind of talent she was, what kind of person she was, and how much anyone touched by her misses her so very much.
She would park her Porsche on Haight Street and walk around the neighborhood when I lived there. What an incredible lady. Everyone who thinks they can sound like her never figured out that it wasn't her voice you heard, it was her soul.

@@wastedanalogues8991 well, I’m proud to have been part of the 60’s & 70’s generation. But I’ve often wished I could’ve witnessed the 30’s blues and jazz greats. I also wish I was part of my kids generation. Even though I’ve been to many concerts with them, I envy their youth. I feel there’s great music in every decade. I just wouldn’t be willing trade my generation’s sound! 😉
@@anthonymichaelhalloates2902 ever since I was born ino this world I could feel and hear the right music , and always felt almost sad in the decades I walk in , but those blues singers, song writers , musicians , Muddy waters , janis , cream, the stones 😌 , jimi.. they left there music here to keep going for certain people's souls ! To survive . 😌🌙🌄
@@arleneirvine1526 Yes, I don't understand this comment. I listen to college stations and there's some really good music not well known on them today that's new, but the commerical music industry today? It's either bland, boring or both. Or just plain ugly.
Janis is the absolute definition of, “Before her time.” All that talent, free moving and rockin out….not a dab of makeup. She was the Super Woman every little girl needed. Sadly, I was born in 1973 and just missed her 💔
Met her in San Francisco along w one of the Big Bro& Hldg. Took pics, and I still have them. She was headed toward her nice csyphdelic Colorful car.. She will always be in my heart.
This performance is amazing and heartbreaking at the same time. How anyone could pour that much glorious passion and angst into a TV performance is beyond me. I was 11 when she and Jimi crossed the rainbow bridge, yet both of them and their music are still part of my life.
Janis, is a very talented singer and she has this magical voice and lyrics that I love ❤ her songs will never be forgotten, How long have you been listening to her songs?
No it wasn't. She sang songs and she had a style that she sang those songs in. She never wrote a single line of any of the songs that she preformed. Her style was unique but that doesn't mean she's extra spiritual or anything else.
I saw Janis live twice. When she finished you could hear a pin drop. Everybody was physically and emotionally exhausted - no gas in the tank. It was a more stunning appreciation of her greatness than our applause. Who else could do that?
I was privileged to see Janis at the Monterey Pop Festival, and I’ve never heard another singer who could sing with such emotion, such feeling. Was a once in a lifetime experience. As was several at that event, Jimi, Otis, and several others. We may never see the talent that was in that 3 day concert, I was blessed to attend, was blessed to have a mom and dad who would pack their kids and take them from LA to Monterey for this show. They were big fans of the Mamas and the Papas, and I was also blessed to have seen them 2-3 times growing up on the West Coast. I’m truly a flower child!!!
That is such a cool story. A line in the the opening credits of my favorite show from the late 60s sums it up for me, "Man, I wish I was you". I recently watched the 40th anniversary of Monterey Pop and it made me think of the significance of what took place. You could see it on the faces of the other musicians as they and everyone there saw and heard for the first time ever, Janis, Jimi, the Who, and Otis. It truly was a once in a life time experience. I often wished I had been born years earlier. I turned eleven the Summer of Love.
Her performance of Ball & Chain just touches my soul! I wasn't even born then but I have watched the Festival on here.. Thank goodness for TH-cam so we can watch such great musicians and performances such as the Monterey Pop Festival!
@@po5586Better? No, it's actually worse. Now you sound like a bitter Karen annoyed with being called out for the obvious. We have the King, Godfather, Queen and Godmother of Soul and it's insane you probably don't even know who they are. Oh well! Not my problem. Buh bye :)
@@po5586 You still haven't listened to enough white singers either. But rest assured we all can hear your dogwhistle, so no need to "race it up" in the future.
My wife use to sing this to our baby, when she would rock him to sleep. Now he’s 30 and him and his wife are expecting twins. How time flies by so fast.
Gives you chills even 50 years later. Such a shame she died so young. Only now that I am older can I truly appreciate her talent. RIP Janis and your voice lives on.
I was at one of her last concerts as a toddler. My older brother remembers her. He says he thought she was yelling out because she was in pain. We were both born in 66. We are from San Francisco. Her songs cannot be duplicated, I agree. I like Bobby Mcgee the most.
That was Brilliant......I'm 71 years old and that just sends me back to my youth.......and that is the woman that has carried me for 50+ years. She has carried my heart and soul....for 50 and more years.... Thank you Janis....I just wish you could have been here these last 50 years or so..... And shown these pathetic wannabees what real talent is!
@@leegraham1363 Sounds like someone raised you right! Follow their lead and you'll never go wrong! Peace and love.............it's what the world needs.........pass it on wherever you can!
We can all learn from this great lady. Sometimes I have to speak publicly and I'm too shy. I have learned to speak from the heart. This great lady is continuing to educate me.
I watched this clip about five times and I cry every single time. Words cannot describe what Janis conveyed from her soul through her mouth. And really a wonderful song for her. In the band was perfect.
Love Janis! I fell in love with her in 70's. She was my favorite girl of the 70's. I cried when she passed away! RIP Janice! You're music will live on beautiful lady! ❣️❣️
At the end of that clip, you can see how humble she is. She's already a superstar, but almost acting surprised that people are applauding her. That's Janis Joplin.
Yours is the only comment to acknowledge exactly what I saw as well,that humble,almost shy human being that she truly was.It was like she crossed over into some other reality when she was performing
The world hurt her, but she never stopped hoping. She acknowledged the pain, but reached for the joy. When she sang, she never told a lie. I'm a 1950s model boomer, and I grew up with the greatest artists of all time. The nights were lite with all the stars that fell to Earth back in those, crazy, golden days, and Janis was one that burned too bright to last. Oh but what a trail she blazed through those eternal summer skies. "And in those days were there signs in the heavens, and portent in the skies. And the children of men cried out to unknown gods for the words to share their pain." So Heaven wept, as one by one, the lights grew dim and faded out.
My Sister was Janis Joplin's Twin... Janis past away October 1970 My Sister was Born April 1971... I've shown people(family & close friends) pictures of Janis Joplin they thought it was My Sister... Janis Died at the age of 27 and My Sister Died at the age of 47. Janis and My Sister both Died in October. My Sister use to sing Janis' Songs.
I remember driving to high school and listening to this new song "Down On Me" on the radio. Blew me away. She only got better. Us baby boomers are old geezers now but we were teenagers in the late '60s. What a time to be a music fan. It was all new and it was incredible.
For those who don't know, Barry Gibb wrote this song for Otis Redding. Redding died before recording it. Janice gives us a glimpse of what Redding's version might have sounded like.
She took an already amazing song and elevated it into the stratosphere. I's been 50 years on since her passing and I can honestly say no one today comes close.
She was a phenomenal performer. Like Hendrix, her candle burned out way too soon. She had so much more soul for her fans. We miss you Janis. Wish her candle still burns. She is missed every day by her fans.
There is a line from the book or movie Wuthering Heights which roughly stated says "Her candle just burned too brightly to live in this world." That was Janis. Who could put more heart and soul into singing a song? No one I can think of.
Cass Elliot was in the audience at Monterey & the look on her face, as Janis Joplin sang, said it all... one legend appreciating another legend. Both of them are gone way too soon. I hope you gals are jamming in the clouds & thrilling the moon & the stars.
Janis Joplin was a rebel. Your songs are unforgettable. My parents saw Janis live in concert in Frankfurt in 1969. Unfortunately, Janis left us much too early because of her alcohol and drug addiction.
Janis Joplin always had a way of making every song have that Janis Joplin ingredient. Janis was way ahead of her time. A legend forever. Janis forever.
I'm a little younger (60), so I just got to see the survivors...the ones who lived past 27...glad of it. Seeing Dead & Co in just a few weeks...got to see the other greats while the still were. Get a chance to see them now, do it, they won't be around a lot longer...then all we will have is video.
Brings tears to the eyes! What a consummate artist Janis was. Those of us who were there at the time were spoiled cause, as far as I'm concerned, no one like her has been seen since.
Agreed 👍,her honesty and emotion were absolutely remarkable,she was one of a kind,a true blessing, natural as one can be,she was and still is the bright light of soul, ironic that word...soul because it has two definitions in one embodiment of a person,Janis Joplin ✌️
so very right you are, just to daydream for a moment that Janis had been able to join us longer and sing more for us, would music history would have been so radically different? enticing to ponder though we all know the truth that sadly for us mortal Janis went to sing lead for a heavenly blues choir that we still yearn to hear oh perhaps some day..
low, incensitive, and just plain wrong to say something like that granted perhaps u dont fancy her voice/music, still to wish someone like her to not exist is not right
it´s a complete mistery. Anyone trying to make anything close to her style will always be a pale imitation. She closed one door forever, defined an absolut peak
There are no female vocalists around today (that I know of) who can hold a candle to Janis... She was a candle in the wind for certain! I will miss her for the rest of my life! ✌🏼&❤️ To The 🌎🌍🌏
That's Pure talent ...her voice is a gift from heaven with such emotional notes , blows me away !! One thing for sure , that's her live voice , no autotune , no nothing but her raw voice at its purest form . That's a real Texas Girl !
Doesn't sit right that y'all are referencing men when comparing to her when she was specifically the only woman who could rock quite like her and that's an important detail. She was a first for a lot of women in the genre. and in reply to the original comment-- yes. She's gotta be my 'If I could sound like anyone' goal for vocals, but I'm humble enough to know I'll never come close. Haha.
@@bryannab7566 Grace Slick was 10 times better than Janis was so was and still is Ann Wilson from HEART sure Janis was good never said she wasn't but she was by far the best female vocalist Momma Cass from Momma &the Poppas.

No nearly naked outfit, no dancing routines, Just simply pure raw talent.
With the way Janis danced there was no need for any other dancers!
Absolutely…. And that talent is so few and far between.

Me too
Hard to believe it's 54 years ago. R.I.P., m'dear.
I got her autograph in the bathroom of a Beverly Hills Hotel, in the 60's , I was only 12 and she couldn't have been sweeter!!
Now, that's cool!
How blesssed you was 🤗🤗🤗 always loved this woman she is an inspiration to all women !
I would like to see it, it would be Nice if You post it somewhere to see it. I really enjoy her music and her way of being
Thats amazing
Omg how cool is that! I was 10 when she passed🥺💜
Wow what a powerful voice, it has been years since i listened to her now 2024 I am 71, brings so many memories back❤
77 and I agree❤️
My mom loved Janis, I’m listening to feel close to my mom who just passed.
No better artist than Janis to bring the emotion needed when mourning the loss of a loved one. Listening to her must bring you back into the room with your mom.
My condolences.
I’m sorry for your loss, 🙏
My condolences 🙏
So sorry for your loss. Praying for you
no special lights, no special sound effects. no dancers, no nothing. just talent pure talent. !!!
They only talk about the drugs. She doesn't get the respect she deserves as a performer. Janis Joplin was so great, total commitment, balls to the walls, spilling her guts out like every song is her last. My favorite is her "Me and Bobby McGee".
At 63 years old, I still get chills listening to Janis.
I'am 59 and i'll never get tired of her singing. ❤️
Me too 63! A band in our area sings Bobby McGee & she sings the hell outta it!!
Me too
May you always get chills listening to her, she was worth it.
me too at 76!
Janis was too good for this world. She was a beauty in every way, physically, spritually, and soulfully
💯💯💯💯💯👑❤️
Perfect!
Amen
Uh. No.
It breaks my heart that she didn't realise just how incredibly beautiful she was. ❤
Beautiful is a stretch.
She was extremely self-conscious about her appearance. A shame. I thought she was beautiful. A stretch? No. I think not. I'm going with beautiful.

Rough as guts.

All hell has broken loose, true.
WTF did I do in my 32 years of life that just discovered this woman two days ago?
OMG! Research her. Awesomeness. I'm an old fart
@@cherokeegirl5908 I'm a fan of her now, start my days with a list full of her songs
Nothing phony or fake about Janis. No tonnes of makeup and fakery. Just a real soul who sang her heart out. 🦋🦋🦋
Take that Beyoncé
Jam
Beautiful soul. Love her .RIP.
You sure got that right.
She put her heart and soul in every song she did would you belive I still have 2 of her LPS
My God..that woman put everything she had to give into her vocals. There will be lots that try to copy this, but it will never be duplicated. 🥰
Thank Heavens for that!
My best Christmasgift ever, when I got "Pearl"!!
Imagine hearing that gigantic voice in the teeny tiny TV studio.
This comes from deep in the heart and soul of humanity💜
Never, ever, ever, be duplicated RIP JJ
As soon as I get the tears out of my eyes, I'll be able to type something completely inadequate about what kind of talent she was, what kind of person she was, and how much anyone touched by her misses her so very much.
Phewwww, you said it
The Bee Gees could write great R&B tunes. Ms. Joplin proves this true. I love me some Janis.
She would park her Porsche on Haight Street and walk around the neighborhood when I lived there. What an incredible lady. Everyone who thinks they can sound like her never figured out that it wasn't her voice you heard, it was her soul.
Thats what I have always said.
You can litterly hear her soul, her emotions.

There will NEVER EVER be another JJ. The 60's and 70's set the way for all music there is today. The artists of that time were genius.
Two JJ... Janis and JJ Cale... perhaps the most underrated artists in American music. Funny how the universe have its ways...!

There'a a film about her: 'A Film About Janis' If you haven't seen it? YOU must. It's ALMOST as good as seeing her in a live concert. Almost.

Always tell my kids....we boomers don't fade away, we rock till we drop. 🤘😎
Was it a sterofonic radio with many speakers...... or quadrofonic....
YEA BUDDY !
I always say the old folks homes are going to be so rockin' with your generation then mine . I made it to the 60's damn it, born in 69! Lol
For those who don't know, Barry Gibb wrote this song for Otis Redding. Redding died before recording it. Janice gives us a glimpse of what Redding's version might have sounded like.
What a voice , wish we could have had it longer. Imagine what music she would have given us
She took an already amazing song and elevated it into the stratosphere. I's been 50 years on since her passing and I can honestly say no one today comes close.
She was a phenomenal performer. Like Hendrix, her candle burned out way too soon. She had so much more soul for her fans. We miss you Janis. Wish her candle still burns. She is missed every day by her fans.
Amazing

There is a line from the book or movie Wuthering Heights which roughly stated says "Her candle just burned too brightly to live in this world." That was Janis. Who could put more heart and soul into singing a song? No one I can think of.
Burned out? Perhaps, but “put out” may be more accurate. Miss her!
Her candle is still burning baby!
Cass Elliot was in the audience at Monterey & the look on her face, as Janis Joplin sang, said it all... one legend appreciating another legend.
Both of them are gone way too soon.
I hope you gals are jamming in the clouds & thrilling the moon & the stars.
Красава! Шедевр вокалу! Спи спокійно, шановна і любима Дженіс! Земля тобі пухом! Людство тебе ніколи не забуде! Слава героям рок-н-ролу!!!
Am proud to say Janis is an all time-idol of nothing but talent.
Her voice is insanely powerful, legendary and very emotionally resl
Tears a falling from my eyes listening and watching this.
That sound …. Goosebumps every time I hear her sing.
Best concert in history (I was there) Woodstock 1969... Go Janet!
I wish I was there
But I wasn’t born until 1970
You must have been somewhere to see Janet.
Janis Joplin was a rebel. Your songs are unforgettable. My parents saw Janis live in concert in Frankfurt in 1969. Unfortunately, Janis left us much too early because of her alcohol and drug addiction.
I met someone who (kinda) knew her said it wasn't the drugs and alcohol that killed her, it was the music press. #1 bless Janis
Janis said "I just want to feel as much as I can. It's what soul is all about". One of the best voices of all time.
The passion pours out with every word she sings.
Janis Joplin always had a way of making every song have that Janis Joplin ingredient. Janis was way ahead of her time. A legend forever. Janis forever.
best version ever! RIP Janis. anyone listening tonight?
Damn straight.
Yup still here. I really miss Janis.
I am still listening: from high school to social security, love you, Janis. Hope you found peace you never had here.
Sitting here in Port Arthur, TX, less than a mile from her house, listening to Janis. Loved my homegirl!!
Port Arthur
Am 53 de ani și ascult Janis Joplin.!
A fost o voce fenomen ,o voce minunată ,care trăiește prin piesele ei !
Janis Joplin took us to church every time she poured herself on that stage.
SHE WAS A POWER FLOWER🌼Never reached again. She had Soul in her blood. She gave her soul in each of her songs. Thank you Janice, RIP🙏🏻💜
Great lady great singer What a chick
One good thing about being old now is:
I and anyone my age can say, We got to see all the good bands and singers live!
I'm a little younger (60), so I just got to see the survivors...the ones who lived past 27...glad of it. Seeing Dead & Co in just a few weeks...got to see the other greats while the still were. Get a chance to see them now, do it, they won't be around a lot longer...then all we will have is video.
Lucky, all I got is TH-cam now
Mike B I did and didn't have to break the bank to do it. saw 90 per cent of the BEST of ALL TIME
Lucky you, sir.
You are. Damn rigth sr
Oh Mein Gott, was haben wir verloren. Warum musste sie so früh gehen....❤
Wow what a performance, went way too young didn’t realise just how good she was!
I was trying to find the definition of goose bumps and found this
Yes she's amazing
It's called frisson when music gives you goosebumps and the chills😊
No shit man ! Agreed.
Your response will go down as one of the most amazing responses of all time
Her voice was crazy
Brings tears to the eyes! What a consummate artist Janis was. Those of us who were there at the time were spoiled cause, as far as I'm concerned, no one like her has been seen since.
Agreed 👍,her honesty and emotion were absolutely remarkable,she was one of a kind,a true blessing, natural as one can be,she was and still is the bright light of soul, ironic that word...soul because it has two definitions in one embodiment of a person,Janis Joplin ✌️
Agree 100%, the garbage artist of today can’t even come close.
@@RocketPipeTV I still have a LP of her
BeeGees some of the greatest songwriters. Here they wrote Janis’s
story and the plight of many others who only needed
She had unbelievable talent
Pure Talent,no props, synthesizers,back up dancers, Showing of T&A,just pure God given Talent 😔!!!!
hey, synth is good.
You are right
After all these years Janis is STILL missed. We have been cheated of decades of unbelievable music.
We've been cheated of Pearl pushing Depends, Jimi selling gold, etc.
Gulf Relay - what a stupid comment. Are you 12?
so very right you are, just to daydream for a moment that Janis had been able to join us longer and sing more for us, would music history would have been so radically different? enticing to ponder though we all know the truth that sadly for us mortal Janis went to sing lead for a heavenly blues choir that we still yearn to hear oh perhaps some day..
By that devil drug.
So many idiots die from that s***.
You are a Gosh Dang f****** right
Soul Sister!!!... Share Birthday.and passion for music...well thats about far as it goes...R.I.P....Janis!.....
No bullshit, no gimmicks just pure music. Love you Janis, you are always in our thoughts. #toosoon
There was Janis, then there was no Janis, and there will never ever be another Janis.
low, incensitive, and just plain wrong to say something like that
granted perhaps u dont fancy her voice/music, still to wish someone like her to not exist is not right
Are you replying to me? Did you even read the comment properly?
it´s a complete mistery. Anyone trying to make anything close to her style will always be a pale imitation. She closed one door forever, defined an absolut peak
@Shock stfu
@@lucyberger7625 no, the idiot is replying to another idiot @shock! SMH
There are no female vocalists around today (that I know of) who can hold a candle to Janis... She was a candle in the wind for certain!
I will miss her for the rest of my life!
✌🏼&❤️ To The 🌎🌍🌏
That's Pure talent ...her voice is a gift from heaven with such emotional notes , blows me away !!
One thing for sure , that's her live voice , no autotune , no nothing but her raw voice at its purest form .
That's a real Texas Girl !
It's just too bad that she suffered most of her pain of rejection in Texas and had to go to California to find acceptance.
If thats a voice from heaven fk me…..
Sylvain descot her voice is not from heaven you are very wrong. She does have a very nice raw voice, but it’s from hell not heaven
Yes man, you are so right. Like that we don't have them anymore.
@@johnnyacevedo681
Whiskey voice.
That voice!!! ❤❤❤
Nobody has even came close to this level of singing fifty years later .
And you ain't lying bro, she was the baddest voice we've heard in Rock n Roll
Only one - Axl Rose. I always feel like he is Janis reincarnated.
Evidently you all have never heard of ROB HALFORD, GEOFF TATE, ROBERT PLANT, BRUCE DICKINSON etc etc etc. Just saying.
Doesn't sit right that y'all are referencing men when comparing to her when she was specifically the only woman who could rock quite like her and that's an important detail. She was a first for a lot of women in the genre.
and in reply to the original comment-- yes. She's gotta be my 'If I could sound like anyone' goal for vocals, but I'm humble enough to know I'll never come close. Haha.
@@bryannab7566 Grace Slick was 10 times better than Janis was so was and still is Ann Wilson from HEART sure Janis was good never said she wasn't but she was by far the best female vocalist Momma Cass from Momma &the Poppas.
