I firmly believe that. With me it was jazz (always been a blues fan), I didn't understand it until my early forty, then I suddenly got it. Music finds us when we are ready.
My children appreciate the music now. But i did expose both of my children to ALL genres. You create a great respect for different cultures and all come together with music
Bonnie is a crazy good slide guitarist. I love her voice, her band, her song choices. My absolute favorite of her songs is I Can’t Make You Love Me, but I’ve never heard her sing anything I didn’t like.
I think Bonnie is one of the best slide guitarists around! My favorite song of hers is "Something To Talk About", but anything she does is good with me! Quite a few years ago she worked with Delbert McClinton, and those were some great sessions!
"Luck of the Draw"... with both of those songs (I can't make you love me, Something to take about) was the first album that introduced me to Bonnie. And I knew I'd never quite love any other voice quite as much.
BB King once said in an interview that Bonnie was the best slide guitarist working at the time. High praise indeed. Fifty plus year career and many hits.
I remember watching her as a kid: this tiny, exquisite redhead - her hair streaming down her back, singing 'Angel From Montgomery'. Her father was a storied and mega famous Broadway performer who originated some of the 20th centuries greatest musical roles. I initially knew her through my appreciation of him. She's a powerhouse on her own, though. I adore her bluesy rock. You won't go wrong with anything she creates.
Love Bonnie Raitt...her best song for me was "I cant make you Love Me". Her Dad was a Broadway actor/singer and did many musicals in the 40s & 50s. He was in the road production of the musical Oklahoma! playing the main lead.
Sebs, I am so happy that you have discovered Bonnie Raitt. I have been a fan of hers since the 70's. You will find that she has an extensive catalogue of music, all of it wonderful. She is truly a national treasure!
I have 21 of Bonnie's albums and God knows how many collaborations with groups. She is a top notch slide guitarist, top notch blues writer, singer and player. There no equals PERIOD.
I am your shadow. I started to listen to Bonnie when I was 14. I have been a devoted fan ever since. You beat me on albums but certainly not on passion. Oh, yeah, I was 14 in 1973.
You should travel a bit down the Bonnie Raitt rabbit hole. She is a national treasure, just like Linda Ronstadt is a national treasure. She is really best during her live concerts.
A lot of people have covered "I Can't Make You Love Me" including Teddy Swims and Angelina Jordan,but Bonnie was the first to record the song,and her recording is listed as one of 500 songs that Rolling Stones considered worthy of that list.The song is also a memebr of the Rock And Roll Hall of fame.
Nobody can sing that song with the emotion Bonnie does. There are a handful of songs that can bring me to tears, and that one is at the top of the list.
When I heard that Bonnie Raitt won a Grammy this year, my honest reaction was, Bonnie Raitt should win ALL the Grammies, every year. She's that much better than all the rest.
Bonnie Raitt is a rabbit hole well worth going down. She has "it" and really is a dynamic performer, wonderful song writer and fabulous collaborator. Enjoy the ride.
Glad that you young whippersnappers are appreciating Bonnie's music. I remember as a teenager sitting on the gymnasium floor listening to her play her guitar for us. She was probably in her 20's.
I love Bonnie Raitt! She has so many great songs! Something to talk about, Angel from Montgomery, Nick of time, Not the only one, Love letter are just a few good ones! She has one of my all time favorite female voices!
Bonnie is one of just 2 or 3 artists to be listed on Rolling Stone's Top 100 vocalists *and* Top 100 guitarists. Her performance of "I Can't Make You Love Me" reduces strong men to puddles. Her performances of "Give It Up" and "You Gotta Know How" will make you laugh out loud. Awesome talent, awesome voice, pure legend.
I love Bonnie Raitt. She is a great guitarist, but her vocals hit me hardest. My oldest and closest friend introduced me to her music in the 70s. Back then, her music made me laugh, made me dance, and made me cry. I am in my 70s now, and her music makes me smile, and tap my toes, but it can still make me cry. I would suggest listening to Tedeschi Trucks band "Midnight in Harlem." Susan Tedeschi sounds as though she was influenced by Bonnie.
Something to Talk About is slinky and bluesy - it's one of my faves. And her latest - Just Like That - will make you cry. It won the Grammy for Song of the Year. I've loved her since the 70s; seen her live many times.
Bonnie Raitt plays a mean slid guitar for sure. When SRV died, they had a special blues concert for him with all the great blues guitar players, and Bonnie Raitt was the only woman on there.
Love your reaction. Bonnie Raitt is one of the best performers ever! She is 73 yrs old. We just saw her again in concert a couple months ago. Terrific live. Please start reacting to her music. Something to Talk About, I Can't Make Me Love Me , Thing Called Love, Love Sneakin up on You, Love Letter, Angles of Montgomery. The list goes on and on.... She just won a Grammy for Song of the Year for her song Just Like That ( have tissues ready for this one!)
Props to you Seb for your honesty. Dude you’re a fine example of why these first reactions work.❤ I love how you’re interested in the “meat” behind the instruments and the vocals of the entire band not just the lead. 👍🏼👍🏼 well done Seb.👏🏼👏🏼
My sister met her husband at her job. Their song was Something To Talk About by Miss Bonnie Raitt. She has songs that match your life . What an artist . What a joy to listen to her.
You have GOT to listen to her singing " I can't make you love me" get out the Kleenex because you WILL cry. The soulfulness and sadness in her voice will touch that place in you where you hide your vulnerability.
Sebs, you have missed so much amazing, legendary music in your youth. We who lived the 70's remember the great bands, music and it defined a generation.
Blown away by this guy! What a way to learn a deeper form of music, from a generation that changed the face of music, proving just how special it remains!✌️
Important to know about her she raised money for the Blues Artists who got screwed by the industry and started a fund to help them,she would bring them on tour to.boost their prominence and sometimes bring local street performers out on stage to give them a bump. I can’t make you love me 😭Let’s give them something to talk about 😉Angel from Montgomery ,Love in the Nick of Time 👏👏👏 She is beyond wonderful a true road warrior touring since the the 70s always bringing it .
Bonnie is one of the best slide guitarists there is. There are samples of her sitting in with all of the big names in rock and roll. Her early stuff was kick-ass blues. Over time she mellowed a little bit and found more ballady niche. A fun duet is her playing "Women Be Wise" with Sippie Wallace, the woman who wrote the song in 1938. Other great songs are "Give It Up", "Got to Know How", "Wah She Go Do?".
Better late than never to catch up to Bonnie. Master class singer. I saw her admitting before playing a song how it had slipped under her radar but glad she finally found it (David Grey). It happens to mere listeners and pro players. Bonnie is all about emotions and story telling. In your spare time, check out her song "The Glow", no matter how many times you see "I can't make you love me" recommended. Beautiful agony turned art form. Then listen to "Love me like a man" to put a smile back on your face.
I've been following Bonnie since the 70's! Check out her album Sweet Forgiveness. An older one. Sublime! She's worked with so many legends of R & B. Her bluesy slide guitar playing is also legendary. Congratulations, you are going to love her!!!
I was privileged to see Ms.Raitt in concert in the spring of 72 at college...thier were only a handful in the audience it was like being in our own livingroom with her . She was fabulous then as now .what a thrill to have seen her in all "our"early years .
She just collected her 13th Grammy this year with the Song of the Year award for "Just Like That". Other great Bonnie songs "Something to Talk about", "I Can't Make You Love Me", ok there's a lot of them lol.
I’ve been trying to get a reaction channel to listen to Bonnie Rait for years ‼️I can’t tell you how many channels I’ve asked over the years,never seen anyone react to her!! She’s the best blues musician and singer living today! Thank you for this reaction, hopefully you will listen to more of her music, she got so many great songs!❤
My favorite of Bonnie’s is a John Prine classic, Angel From Montgomery and Home, also I Can’t Make You Love Me. Susan Tedeschi also does a great Angel From Montgomery - but anything she does is unbelievable. Love ya Sebs! One of the main reasons I love watching your reactions is that I know exactly what and how you feel about great music. You put it into words perfectly. There are people I know, friends and family and the like, that just don’t get how special music is to me. IMO it’s one of the greatest blessings God gave me, (and the rest of the world!) and I’m so thankful for it. 💙🎶
This is not my preferred genre of music, but Bonnie Raitt can certainly draw anyone in. She is raw, real, raspy, and ridiculously talented. Her music flows out of her like calm river waters. Thanks for reminding me of one of the best blues artists ever. 🙂❤
The queen of talent!! This woman is a vibe. Great, and so unique. So bluesy and chill. Catch her live with Keb Mo! Just them and their guitars. #eargasm
Bonnie Raitt is a national treasure. She has been making fantastic music for decades. She can sing a lovely ballad and effortlessly go into some gritty honky tonk blues. She's a certified legend.
Love, love, love Bonnie... she's the best...!!! She's just a gem !!! Blues, soul & rock...she has sung with the best too...like Jackson Browne !!! Have seen them together live & yes they make your ❤ so happy... keep listening to them...!!! Enjoy...🎶🎸✌️❤️😎🥰✨✨✨
"Bad, negative music can bring out the worst in you. And beautiful, amazing music can bring out the best in you." You said it, man! You just summed up the world today!
One of my favorite female singer. Something fun she sing Let's give'em Something to talk about. Nick of time is also one of my favorite she has so many.
She’s been putting out albums since the early 70s. She had a particularly huge song on radio for which she won a Grammy in 1991, called Something to Talk About. You should definitely hear it. Also, I Can’t Make You Love Me is a must listen - as other commenters have been suggesting
Bonnie and Stevie Nicks (and a few other female artist) are just so confident, competent, out spoken that sex appeal just exudes from them into the air. You cannot help but just want to stare, listen and long to stay in that spell forever.
I just saw her live in concert two weeks ago. She is AMAZING, easily one of my favorites. Do a deep dive into her catalog. Even her covers are stellar. Bonnie is the best ❤️🥰
She is reported to have learned slide from Lloyd George of Little Feat. She and Emmylou Harris sang backing vocals for Little Feat on The Midnight Special and the performance can be found somewhere on UA-cam.
The Neville Brothers are AWESOME! The thing I find particularly amusing is that Aaron Neville looks like the biggest badass black biker in the bar (when displaing his tats).....yet has an angelic voice
One of my favorites from my past. Great hearing Bonnie again. I feel blessed having grown up through the explosion of the music scene of the 60s & 70s. And now having the Joy of revisiting the best with videos. Music heals..,thank you❤
The first time I heard Bonnie, she was singing background on a Jackson Browne album. I searched out her name and bought her album straight away, lol. Been a fan of Bonnie since the 70's ❤
Welcome to some of the best female artists ever. Bonnie Raitt is simply awesome. Try Carly Simon, Emmy Lou Harris, Rita Coolidge and you will discover that Linda Ronstadt was not the only great vocalist of the 60's...she was simply the best of the best.
She's one heck of a Blues singer and can really lay down the lead licks on guitar. She isn't just a guitar strummer, not at all. Check out some of her other stuff, she kicks ass.
Love her. She's a awesome performer and looking. I'm 74years old and been IN love with her for decades. She's a 10+ to me. She can definitely get down with the blues
Love your heartfelt emotional response. There are just some artists that are truly authentic to themselves Bonnie is one of those artists. Very well respected in the industry. Listen to her You can’t make me love you. That song makes me feel things. She’s wonderful
![АЛАУДИНОВ у Скабеевой: эти их ВСУ нас НЕ ДОГОНЯТ 😁 [Пародия]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/an0anqU4WGQ/mqdefault.jpg)
Maybe you weren't meant to hear these great artists until now when you can truly appreciate them and understand just how iconic they are
I firmly believe that. With me it was jazz (always been a blues fan), I didn't understand it until my early forty, then I suddenly got it. Music finds us when we are ready.

I completely agree... "I Can't Make You Love Me" is an absolute classic. Try the version with Bruce Hornsby playing the keyboard.
that's my fave song by Bonnie as well and came to comments to suggest it. So thanks for doing it for me.
I think it’s the most mature breakup song ever written.
"Luck of the Draw"... with both of those songs (I can't make you love me, Something to take about) was the first album that introduced me to Bonnie. And I knew I'd never quite love any other voice quite as much.
BB King once said in an interview that Bonnie was the best slide guitarist working at the time. High praise indeed. Fifty plus year career and many hits.
2nd only to B.B.
@@carolannadams6196 B. B. King was not a slide guitar player.
I saw Bonnie Raitt and BB King together at Red Rocks once. It was awesome.
Sorry, BB, but she has never been as good as Ry Cooder. I'll always love her, though.
@@zounds13 She has the edge because of her swagger.
I remember watching her as a kid: this tiny, exquisite redhead - her hair streaming down her back, singing 'Angel From Montgomery'.

She's a powerhouse on her own, though. I adore her bluesy rock. You won't go wrong with anything she creates.
Yes!! Some of the best lyrics by Prine. Love that song.
Yes!
I saw her do a duet with John Prine, singing his song "Angel from Montgomery." It was great.
John Raitt was an incredible performer. His scenes with Doris Day in The Pajama Game are phenomenal. You can hear John in Bonnie's voice.
@blippacg Yes. I hear it, too.
Believe me so many have been attracted to Bonnie . ALWAYS been a natural beauty . Hell of a slide guitar player. She's been making hits for 60 years.
Bonnie is an expert slide guitarist. At age 73, she just won record of the year with "Just Like That"
As good as this was it doesn't even scratch the surface of what this Lady can do.
Agree!
Love Bonnie Raitt...her best song for me was "I cant make you Love Me". Her Dad was a Broadway actor/singer and did many musicals in the 40s & 50s. He was in the road production of the musical Oklahoma! playing the main lead.
I thought her recording of that was perfect until I heard George Michael’s version . I love Bonnie Raitt though have seen her live ❤️
Made her hugely popular!
@@franciet99 as I said I love B R have seen her live , Nick of Time my personal favourite, it’s my personal opinion that’s all
@@susanyork5089 i'll check it out.
A live version with Bruce Hornsby is always a good choice for this classic.
Sebs, I am so happy that you have discovered Bonnie Raitt. I have been a fan of hers since the 70's. You will find that she has an extensive catalogue of music, all of it wonderful. She is truly a national treasure!
The great artists she worked with such as John Prine make discovering her even more rewarding.
Me too. First heard Bonnie on KSAN radio station in San Francisco about 1972. Have all her records!
And she has played with B.B. King, Keb Mo, John Lee Hooker, Sippy Wallace, Buddy Guy, and many other blues greats like Mississippi Fred McDowell.
I have 21 of Bonnie's albums and God knows how many collaborations with groups. She is a top notch slide guitarist, top notch blues writer, singer and player. There no equals PERIOD.

@@armadillotoeI thought so too until I heard George Michael singing it live , it’s heartbreaking .
Listening to her sing "I Can't Make You Love Me" is truly heartbreaking and beautiful.
RnB singer Tank has also done a beautiful rendition of ‘I can’t make you Love Me’……check it out!
Bonnie is a treasure, Her raspy voice makes you feel what she sings
When I heard that Bonnie Raitt won a Grammy this year, my honest reaction was, Bonnie Raitt should win ALL the Grammies, every year. She's that much better than all the rest.

She just won the Grammy Award for Just Like That. Talk about emotional, you will love it
Thought I had felt Bonnie before, but that one just broke me.
Agreed. Awesome in all ways!
If you like Bonnie, you HAVE to check out Susan Tedeschi. You can feel the soul in her voice.
Agree! The first time I heard Susan, I thought it was Bonnie for a minute.
I love Bonnie Raitt! She has so many great songs! Something to talk about, Angel from Montgomery, Nick of time, Not the only one, Love letter are just a few good ones! She has one of my all time favorite female voices!

When you watched the 2012 Led Zeppelin Tribute at the Kennedy Center, there was a moment when the camera panned to her in the audience.
Important to know about her she raised money for the Blues Artists who got screwed by the industry and started a fund to help them,she would bring them on tour to.boost their prominence and sometimes bring local street performers out on stage to give them a bump.

Please listen to Bonnie and Norah Jones singing Tennessee Waltz. I love how excited you get about our old music.
Bonnie Raitt songs you need to hear: Love Has No Pride, Sweet Forgiveness, Home, I Can't Make You Love Me, Love Me Like a Man, Blowing Away
She is my all time favorite female singer. I saw her mid-70’s & she’s still gettin’ it!
Bonnie Raitt won Best Song at the Grammys last year for "Just Like That". Was described by a British 'journo' as an unknown blues singer.
Hard to believe she’s 73. Her voice is spectacular! Always has been, always will be!!
Bonnie is one of the best slide guitarists there is. There are samples of her sitting in with all of the big names in rock and roll. Her early stuff was kick-ass blues. Over time she mellowed a little bit and found more ballady niche. A fun duet is her playing "Women Be Wise" with Sippie Wallace, the woman who wrote the song in 1938. Other great songs are "Give It Up", "Got to Know How", "Wah She Go Do?".
Better late than never to catch up to Bonnie. Master class singer. I saw her admitting before playing a song how it had slipped under her radar but glad she finally found it (David Grey).

Bonnie is really a fantastic artist. Listen to Love Me Like a Man live.
Something to Talk About is fantastic -- funky and bluesy.
Long and enjoyable artist, years of listening.
You GOTTA Listen to Something To Talk About! Great song!
Bonnie Raitt is a national treasure. We all fell in love with her. Can't wait for you to react to more Bonnie! Thanks for your feeling-full reactions.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bonnie has been gorgeous at every age ... and her voice is unique and mesmerizing. Love her!
I've been in love with Bonnie Raitt for 50 years. I saw her live ar a small bar in Minneapolis in 1974. I was in front with my elbows on the stage.
Those were the years!
I’ve been trying to get a reaction channel to listen to Bonnie Rait for years ‼️I can’t tell you how many channels I’ve asked over the years,never seen anyone react to her!!

@@janflewelling6277 She’s amazing.
Been a fan since the early 70's and she is absolutely wonderful!!!! I have had the opportunity to see her live and what a experience!!!!! WOW!!!!!
Love her! I know her mostly for blues. She has performed with all the greats, I think. BB King, Eric Clapton, etc.
2001 I saw her with Shawn Colvin , Jackson Browne & Bruce Hornsby . Always 3 performers on stage. They had learned each others songs .
The one at Red Rocks? I'd have given a lot to see that one live.
Loved her for years. She shares my birthday, (I'm older 😀) Thanks for sharing!
Saw her in concert with John Lee Hooker. Fantastic!
She is a badass for sure, you could go down a MAJOR rabbit hole with her!
This is not my preferred genre of music, but Bonnie Raitt can certainly draw anyone in. She is raw, real, raspy, and ridiculously talented. Her music flows out of her like calm river waters. Thanks for reminding me of one of the best blues artists ever. 🙂❤
SHE HAS SOME REALLY GREAT MUSIC..
Her father was singer John Raitt, who had the male lead in the movies "Oklahoma" and "The Pajama Game."
The queen of talent!!
This woman is a vibe. Great, and so unique. So bluesy and chill.
Catch her live with Keb Mo! Just them and their guitars. #eargasm
I LOVE Bonnie Raitt! Excellent! So glad you are listening to her and spreading the music!
Bonnie Raitt is a national treasure. She has been making fantastic music for decades. She can sing a lovely ballad and effortlessly go into some gritty honky tonk blues. She's a certified legend.
Not weird brother, she's another musical another legend.
Love, love, love Bonnie... she's the best...!!! She's just a gem !!! Blues, soul & rock...she has sung with the best too...like Jackson Browne !!! Have seen them together live & yes they make your ❤ so happy... keep listening to them...!!! Enjoy...🎶🎸✌️❤️😎🥰✨✨✨
In the mid 70's I saw Bonnie perform in Chicago at a public television concert with Buddy Guy and Jr Wells. She is amazing.
"Bad, negative music can bring out the worst in you. And beautiful, amazing music can bring out the best in you." You said it, man! You just summed up the world today!
Love watching you fall for one of my long time favorite singers. Enjoy the trip hearing more of her work.
FYI, she, Jackson Browne and Stevie Wonder sang at Stevie Ray Vaughan's funeral.
Oh, she’s one of the best! “Something to Talk About” one of my favorites.
Bunnies song… Let’s Give them Something to Talk About…. Perfect….
Bonnie Raitt has been on the music scene since the early 70s. My favorite song of hers is I Can't Make You Love Me.
One of my all time favorites. Was blessed to see her at an amphitheater in Atlanta. Perfect blend of the blues, rock, country. I love her so much.
One of my favorite female singer. Something fun she sing Let's give'em Something to talk about. Nick of time is also one of my favorite she has so many.
Bonnie is like a top shelf one of a kind exclusive whiskey. A red headed goddess.
As someone mentioned, lady just won song of the year with Just Like That, and absolutely deserved it
An Icon...she is all you think she is~! Great reaction...
She’s been putting out albums since the early 70s. She had a particularly huge song on radio for which she won a Grammy in 1991, called Something to Talk About. You should definitely hear it. Also, I Can’t Make You Love Me is a must listen - as other commenters have been suggesting

That chord was a 7th chord. 7th chords have that half step note in them that adds a perfect transistional tension to grab the ear.
I just saw her live in concert two weeks ago. She is AMAZING, easily one of my favorites. Do a deep dive into her catalog. Even her covers are stellar. Bonnie is the best ❤️🥰
Her Angel from Montgomery is a great cover of a great John Prine song
She is reported to have learned slide from Lloyd George of Little Feat. She and Emmylou Harris sang backing vocals for Little Feat on The Midnight Special and the performance can be found somewhere on UA-cam.
Something To Talk About is one of her greatest hits....my favorite....watch the original version...fab!
The Neville Brothers are AWESOME! The thing I find particularly amusing is that Aaron Neville looks like the biggest badass black biker in the bar (when displaing his tats).....yet has an angelic voice
One of my favorites from my past. Great hearing Bonnie again. I feel blessed having grown up through the explosion of the music scene of the 60s & 70s. And now having the Joy of revisiting the best with videos. Music heals..,thank you❤
I never get tired of listening to Bonnie. She has voice that’s like velvet with a rasp…and she sounds just like this live…every year!
“Angel from Montgomery”
“I Can’t Make You Love Me”
Lister to these two songs and your life will change.
Her song I Can’t Make You Love Me is still one of the best and saddest love songs ever.
The first time I heard Bonnie, she was singing background on a Jackson Browne album. I searched out her name and bought her album straight away, lol. Been a fan of Bonnie since the 70's ❤
I can’t make you love me is hands down my favorite song of hers
Won song of the year, I can't make you love me. Gorgeous!
Welcome to some of the best female artists ever. Bonnie Raitt is simply awesome. Try Carly Simon, Emmy Lou Harris, Rita Coolidge and you will discover that Linda Ronstadt was not the only great vocalist of the 60's...she was simply the best of the best.
You said it, Brother - Music is the best!
I hadn't heard this song by Bonnie before. It's so good. Thanks for reacting to this!
Omg , Sebs I am absolutely amazed you have not heard of her …wow wow wow …❤❤❤She is truly one amazing artist .
She's one heck of a Blues singer and can really lay down the lead licks on guitar. She isn't just a guitar strummer, not at all. Check out some of her other stuff, she kicks ass.
Love her. She's a awesome performer and looking. I'm 74years old and been IN love with her for decades. She's a 10+ to me. She can definitely get down with the blues
Bonnie has a great pedigree. She is the daughter of Broadway Legend John Raitt!
Love your heartfelt emotional response. There are just some artists that are truly authentic to themselves Bonnie is one of those artists. Very well respected in the industry. Listen to her You can’t make me love you. That song makes me feel things. She’s wonderful
I was fortunate enough to enjoy seeing her live twice. Both times also involved opening for the great Stevie Ray Vaughan. Much love for Bonnie.
