Her music is timeless. I'm 70 and still love her. Nobody can replace her because she broke the mold. I was so sad when I heard she died but I'm grateful so many of her songs are available on line.
@debra53758 she was only able to break that mold because she didn't care about other people's opinions of her, and she gave every song her best, and that in itself made her a legend...
I’m 70 I saw Janis in the 70s along with Hendrix B.B. King Chicago all in Philly. I feel so blessed to have been a part of the magic generation they will never ever be combination of musicians and artist that were in the 70s.
She had "IT" whatever "IT" is..... She's got it. Charisma, attitude, stage presence, style, talent, beauty etc ... She's got it. I don't care how long she's been gone, she will always be a freaking legend
Lol imagine all the elders Elders: she was ummm an overly friendly person. She... was really liked. Had... a healthy appetite. She oozed passion...& uh, it came out in her creativity. Imagine the youngens Youngens: sooooo... what ure saying is she got smashed alot? Or, I mean... she believed in ... unifying? To be 1? Like... all that peaceful happy hippy Mary jan- Mary & Jesus stuff?! K got u. Elders: as long as u got "it" Youngens: yessir 🥴. I mean I could've honestly done w/ out knowing. But I figured for her time, it goes w/ out saying. 😔 sigh. Now I feel like this is a little tainted now. But also not really bc im not her. I know she passed but she would've been up there by now. & no1 wants to talk about old ppls seredes however u spell that
was an honor to drop that 100th like, she was one of a kind. May she rest in peace, I imagine her and Jimi in the same heaven Jamming something groovy baby.
As a 90’s child, I find her voice and music absolutely mesmerizing. I hope everyone can learn to appreciate music that’s not part of their generation, country, or preferred genre.
@@xwh1techoc0l4teb2 I'm not a professional football player either.... But if a wide receiver is missing passes all the time while complaining, well to me he sucks.... Janet Joplin is not singing she's yelling and that's coming from a critic not a musician
That screech gets my blood rushing! Yeah! There! Too bad she trashed herself along with Jimmy to "manteca". But I gotta say that glass blowing voice! Total Dakine!~like Morrison and Hendrix's.
WHO IS NOT seeing the beauty..power... Passion.. Of this incredible woman. Janis was so humble... She didn't really comprehend her impact. Genuine goddess. .
my mom raised me listening to music like this and i'll forever thank her for that. janis is incredible, it makes me wish i was around when she was alive...seeing her in concert was probably an amazing experience 💕
Wasn't born when she was around but she is still my favorite artist. Her voice takes my brain to a whole other place of reality. And it heals my soul. *Edit* this woman draws me in everytime I see her!
@@crystalroser6327 maybe it was the acid I dropped when I was younger, not really sure but when I hear her voice my brain switches gears and goes to some other place. And all that I know about that place is that I feel safe and protected from everything that is wrong in the world.
+adrian ornelas she was obviously too shy and Janis did not push her to join in. proves that what we have read about Janis is right- she understood the shy, loner types. We were all over the place in all generations. You gotta understand that.
Janis and I used to sip plum wine together in the office at the Family Dog on the Great Highway back in 1969. I moved to Marin in '70, and used to party at her house up the canyon in Larkspur. I have a poem she wrote where the last line is "After I got what I wanted, found out it cost me my mind." Prophetic. We were all stunned and deeply moved at her passing, but she got into hard drugs, just like Michael Bloomfield. I still miss them both.
Who knows? The whole poem, maybe. My address book from those days is filled with names of SF musicians that went on to become famous, as well as other characters. But back then, it was laid back, casual, and nobody had made it big - yet.
Judith, many Grace Vanderwaal fans think Grace is Janis under control. What do you think, since you knew her? ua-cam.com/video/QZLSkrWtUSE/v-deo.html a little something
Grace Vanderwaal Austin City Limits, Oct 7th 2017 is 49 min video you should watch. That Courtney girl is more of an act to get attention right now but she's another one to watch out for
Will Mason exactly! Beauty is so sooo much more than exterior beauty... she has more beauty in her little finger than most supermodels have in their entire body.💯
We were free man it was the best time on the planet no problems no worries just peace that's my time and a time I would gladly jump back into any day!!
We were rebellious and we expressed ourselves through music and dancing. Self expression and creativity were everywhere. It resulted in the most incredible music ever heard. It just expanded from there. It was an amazing time to grow up. I miss those days.
Janis will always be the most authentic, heartfelt female vocalist ever! You put words and soul into what you sang and helped me to understand that being true to one's self is the only way to live..
Not just a performer, the very essence and voice of a movement. She's a member of the audience as much as she is the entertainer, at the center of the whole thing. The peace and love rock movement must have been so strong, in the cold war and Vietnam era, to have expressionists like Janice made it a tour de force.
I can hardly listen to Janis without feeling emotional. My mom has always loved her, and I know one day I could very well be listening to it reminiscing about her. My sister died from years of heroin addiction like Janis did. Even looked and dressed kinda like her. And the fact that Janis robbed herself of life so young. It's hard for me not to tear up because of all these things when I listen.
I lost my first-born nephew to addiction in 1977 following an accidental overdose. He was just 19, brilliant and musically talented. My family still wonders what he might have become. I know your family mourns your sister’s lost future, as well. Janis was clearly struggling, for sure. Usually in those days,l 1960s-70s, street drugs were fairly diluted. The story was that Janis was visiting in LA and bought some unusually strong heroin that caused her to overdose. The police reports were that others in the city who passed away who had. bought their stuff from the same dealer. The whole world must wonder what Janis’ future might have been. Heaven forbid it would have included Fentanyl, that has taken so many lives!!!! I’m so sorry for your loss! ❤
@@elizabethcloutman8913 Drugs are for mugs. No excuses, if someone decides to excuse themselves from the gene pool by being stupid enough to OD on drugs then so be it. A lot more great people have died doing noble deeds than consuming substances that they know is going to damage them. These are the people that we should be remembering and celebrating. If you are dumb enough to OD on drugs then maybe that's a sign. A sign that you are not really as great as you think you are. I love her voice and energy but obviously have no intention of placing her on a pedestal because she was thick enough to kill herself with drugs. Now Charles Darwin, there is someone that we can all feel proud of and celebrate.
My mom introduced me to Janis when I was a little girl.. And here I am 34 still listening, and was able to sing Bobby McGee with her yesterday in the car as we had a girls day. I’m trying to not let my emotion get to me because I know one day I won’t be able to share it with her and I’m so grateful to be alive and create core memories. Janis is a staple from my childhood
I miss her stage presence ! I got to see her at Woodstock been a life long fan. Went to a lot of concerts but never was the same.When she was on stage it was a party, she made you feel like you were part of a party not someone in the audience All I know there must have one hell of a party in Heaven!!!!!
Not many knew she was going to be there she really got famous after woodstock .Jimmy Henex,Santana a lot got famous from there that was a time that can't be done again
Is that where those guys are from? They're so rocking it!!! A lotta BS talk about 60s being so full of Love though - bc the people who thought they were "cool" put down Janis for her lack of "feminine beauty"... And Great Talents like Karen Carpenter and John Denver went over the edge when audience decided "no longer cool" **Younger Folks today way more inclusive and tolerant -- I hope they get their chance to fix the mess those phony boomers made** (I'm a Boomer-I speak from experience
No way that voice is coming out of her what the hell just found out about her from my music history class it’s awesome to hear honestly really unique nothing like I’ve ever heard
"No way that voice is coming out of her" Right? A tiny bit of a woman, who'd think that she had so much power and feeling? Edit to add: I'm glad you (and presumably your classmates on music history) have discovered her. You'll never forget her, I can assure you.
As I get older i find myself on certain nights stumbling back on artists I knew about and listened to when I was younger, BUT was to young to appreciate how amazing they are and dear god Janis was one of them. Just a goddess in the music scene such a unique voice and such amazing charisma I envy all of you who were lucky enough to see here live
Yeah Love this woman and her soul singing, her on pitch raunchy sounding voice. What a performance she gave her audience, on a bottle a night of southern comfort?
this is real raw talent.....unlike all these manufactured "pretty" girls....rock n roll is "ugly".... this woman wasn't afraid to get "ugly" w it, and she was beautiful because of it
And she welcomed it. She was herself on stage, just pure and simple. She invited you to be yourself in the audience and feel the music with her, truly an artist and amazing person.
I wonder if that woman has seen or been shown this video since. What a memory! I’d do anything for a whiff of Janis’ scent ❤️🌹 RIP Queen. We all still love you world over.
Saw Iggy Pop do it 5 years ago at a UK festival. Him and a security guard were playing tug of war with the poor bloke. Iggy won in the end but yeah, these day's are long gone.
She IS And Was The Best! I Think She Grooves With Others In The Everlasting World Of GOD, GOD Don't Give Or Gave A Person This Kind OF Talent And Let It Perish, No Way! Love YOU Lord JESUS, BLess Her Soul!
She was so good and she was so generous with everyone. Yet! where ever she went, Janis has shed so much light and so much love around her that she became the epitomy of Blues music. Except for a few high school dummies, from Texas, that she left behind, the whole entire world just loved her.
People would say she was so ugly. For the life of me, I never ever saw her that way. She was slim and trim, thick hair, a bit of a native pretty look to her eyes, never needed makeup and could sing like angels calling from heaven.
Valerie Underhill This might sound weird but I am watching her story on tv thinking man I think Janice is extremely cute and I came here looking through comments to see if anyone brought up what they thought of her looks. I am with you completely!
I can't believe anyone would say anything negative about Janis. She remains the ultimate ROCK GODDESS... decades after her death!! No one compares to her, absolutely no one, not even close!!
***** I'm sorry but to me they sound typical of the singers these days - too deliberate and self conscious with a tendency to go for soaring vocals at the expense of real emotion. that's just my personal opinion, I'm sure others disagree. Thanks for the suggestions though.
Lol, you should go to a 200 Stab Wounds show. People are all over the stage running around and flipping off it and trying to sing into the mic at the chorus it's hilarious
Born far too late to meet her in person, the best I can get is old footage. What strikes me most about Janis is how in her daily role, in interviews and in conversation she was so very shy and quiet- yet she had such an enormous stage presence, when she performed she exploded with confident energy.
I know songs make everyone think of a specific time and place, but why not share it? I'm driving down U-S 385 toward Brownfield, TX in my '55 Chevy, windows down on a very hot summer day and singing along with Janice at the top of my lungs, summer of '69.
FUE ALGO MARAVILLOSO JANIS QUE FUERZA Y DESGARRO EN LA VOZ, SE DEJABA EL ALMA, VIVÍA INTENSAMEMNTE LO QUE ESTABA CANTANDO ¡¡¡""NO ESWTÁS PERO TE RECORDAMOS"!! NOS HA DEJADO UN BUEN LEGADO. QUE LAS PERSONAS QUE PUBLIQUEN PEDIRÍA UN FAVOR: QUE SE QUEDEN CON LO POSITIVO DE CUALQUIER CANTANTE, Y DEJAR LO NEGATIVO>> SI RESPLANDECIERON EN AQUELLOS DÍAS ERA PORQUE REALMENTE SERVÍAN.
I don't care what anyone says about her appearance, she was beautiful inside and out. What a talent she was,also the dedication for her fans. Gone to soon ❤️
It's wonderful to see all those people dancing on stage, enjoying themselves and seizing the moment. If that was today they'd all have phones out, taking selfies with Janice and posting on social media.
Thank you so much for being in my life Janis. You died a moth before I was born. But my mom loved you were planted in my heart. Music is everything!!. You will always be with us. ✨✌️💜🙏🎶🎶
how amazing to watch the response of people to janis so close up - wouldnt it be great if we could hear those people tell their stories? id love to know what journeys brought them to be in this picture.. what an amazing experience it must have been.
My my! I wonder if there's a moment when the men and women dancing on stage with Janis sit down with their grandchildren and tell them the story of when they danced with the amazingly talented Janis and the kid says "Janis WHO"? She was incredible and Pops, if you were there you have a great memory and I envy you.
So many told me how ugley she was. and I used to get so mad and acutally fought over that. She was one of the most beautiful people ever when I was in my teens, in all ways. And yes I if I had of been older and in those circles. I would have tried to be her boyfriend and love her with every ounce of my heart.
Gustavo Ferreira Gustavo, I saw at the Monterey Pop festival when I was twelve. A truly inspired performance that blew my pubescent mind. I grew around the city from '62 to '73. I was born there but my path started in '62. She was the apple of my young stupid heart. When she died I realized it was not a game. No fun after that. She is Missed.
Will Itig Aside from being such a great performer, she was such a free spirit that it cut across in the grooves in her albums And, I don't think there's such a thing as an ugly free spirit. Free spirits are by nature beautiful ppl. I think that's the way it works. Anyway, like a lot of ppl, I always felt like she was talking to me thru her songs, that she felt what I was feeling, that she hurt just like I was hurting, but that it was gonna be alright in due time. *("I know you're unhappy, oh, baby, i know, honey I know just how you feel.")*
Will Itig *"had've?"* "HAD HAVE?" I believe you meant to say "would've," maybe. Or, to put it more precisely, in your vernacular, *"would of."* Janis was a smart cookie and very articulate. Check out her interviews with Dick Cavett, for instance. Cavett, a very mamby-pamby wordy talk show host, gets his clock cleaned by that tiny 'lil 'ol gal from Port Arthur, Texas. Haha! Naw, my fine feathered illiterate fella, Janis never *"would of"* taken the least bit of interest on a silly boy using BAD English. And, you better know it. HAHA!
Drugs may have taken her life, but not being able to deal with reality killed her. I will always have her in my heart. She never knew how great she was.....
Back when you didn’t need filters, makeup and surgeries, Janis was a sex symbol because her voice told the world how beautiful she was. Unfortunately she died to young but her voice will be heard a thousand years after
Man the reason people love this era of music in my opinion is because the artist had a real authentic connection with their audience. Janis was definitely in a lane of her own 🙌🏼❤
Her music is timeless. I'm 70 and still love her. Nobody can replace her because she broke the mold. I was so sad when I heard she died but I'm grateful so many of her songs are available on line.
The lady iz a legend peace
She will live forever.❤
@debra53758 she was only able to break that mold because she didn't care about other people's opinions of her, and she gave every song her best, and that in itself made her a legend...
Elle est unique mais la relève est assurée avec Courtney Hadwins.. Cette gamine est la réincarnation de Janis
I’m 30 and she still got it lol
I’m 70 I saw Janis in the 70s along with Hendrix B.B. King Chicago all in Philly. I feel so blessed to have been a part of the magic generation they will never ever be combination of musicians and artist that were in the 70s.
Wow, you were really lucky!
Your a liar she died in 1970
Exactly... she died in 70
Died in oct 1970
She died in 70. So no. Can't you just enjoy a song without making up some bullshit commentary
I love how she pulled that shy girl to her and sang right in her face "that a woman can be tough"....wow. How can someone NOT love janis?
I don't think she was shy, I'm pretty sure she's tripping balls on acid and doesn't comprehend what's happening.
@@Centermass762 Lol maybe
MAYS CLIMATE they were shy but it was the late 1960s they I would bet lot of them were on acid. Bless em

Watched a very good doco the other day..another great shy talented soul taken by alcohol and drugs...the stage and her voice gave her power...Legend
How can a song be over 50 years old and better than anything on the radio the last ten years?
listen to Pink
Try listening to Beth Hart. She's awesome, too.
I love older music. And Janis Joplin is a rough addict at best.

Would have been cool to have a grandma like Janis Joplin.
...And a grandpa like Jim Morrison

Great comment. Check out Janis and Gloria Swanson being interviewed on the same show, and her "head" comment. Its on youtube.

When she sings, dances & interacts with fans her soul is overwhelming, a beautiful soul indeed.
Any discussion of "performance art" begins and ends with Janis. Sometimes she's literally screeching, but she draws you in and holds you. Magnificent.
your right she was screeching through out the song had to turn down the volume while listening to the song.
That screech gets my blood rushing! Yeah! There! Too bad she trashed herself along with Jimmy to "manteca". But I gotta say that glass blowing voice! Total Dakine!~like Morrison and Hendrix's.
Only two items on this menu! Are we clear! Don't make her buck,!

it’s a crazy blend she was so different
And her generosity
Wasn't born when she was around but she is still my favorite artist. Her voice takes my brain to a whole other place of reality. And it heals my soul. *Edit* this woman draws me in everytime I see her!

She sings your soul’s words. 🌺
That's a beautiful way to think about it.

Such a Healing Experience just listening to her Music♡♡
love how she especially brought the shy girl up, she wanted everyone to feel the liberation music offers

Thank you! Life does that.... taking pieces of my heart... tonight it gave back and I thought of Janis~
Fascinating to look back on the culture of this time period
From the funky clothes people wore to the way they danced
It all just seems so liberating.
We were free and not woke, loving each other
We were free and not woke loving each other

Not just a performer, the very essence and voice of a movement. She's a member of the audience as much as she is the entertainer, at the center of the whole thing. The peace and love rock movement must have been so strong, in the cold war and Vietnam era, to have expressionists like Janice made it a tour de force.

I lost my first-born nephew to addiction in 1977 following an accidental overdose. He was just 19, brilliant and musically talented. My family still wonders what he might have become. I know your family mourns your sister’s lost future, as well. Janis was clearly struggling, for sure. Usually in those days,l 1960s-70s, street drugs were fairly diluted. The story was that Janis was visiting in LA and bought some unusually strong heroin that caused her to overdose. The police reports were that others in the city who passed away who had. bought their stuff from the same dealer. The whole world must wonder what Janis’ future might have been. Heaven forbid it would have included Fentanyl, that has taken so many lives!!!! I’m so sorry for your loss! ❤
I understand how you must feel! I too loved Janis Joplin! I'm really sorry for your loss!!
@@elizabethcloutman8913 Drugs are for mugs. No excuses, if someone decides to excuse themselves from the gene pool by being stupid enough to OD on drugs then so be it. A lot more great people have died doing noble deeds than consuming substances that they know is going to damage them. These are the people that we should be remembering and celebrating. If you are dumb enough to OD on drugs then maybe that's a sign. A sign that you are not really as great as you think you are. I love her voice and energy but obviously have no intention of placing her on a pedestal because she was thick enough to kill herself with drugs. Now Charles Darwin, there is someone that we can all feel proud of and celebrate.
your sister made a very very stupid choice.
@@LocaKenia so did your mom when she didn't swallow you. But here we are. 😌
That guy with the short sleeved white shirt is so excited. I love it!
Pretty sure he was having a seizure..
he'll never forget that night. ..He seemed to have had a life changing experience. lol
To me Janis Joplin is one bad ass woman. A legend gone way too soon.
Real as sunshine n rain
My mom introduced me to Janis when I was a little girl..
And here I am 34 still listening, and was able to sing Bobby McGee with her yesterday in the car as we had a girls day. I’m trying to not let my emotion get to me because I know one day I won’t be able to share it with her and I’m so grateful to be alive and create core memories. Janis is a staple from my childhood
I miss her stage presence ! I got to see her at Woodstock been a life long fan. Went to a lot of concerts but never was the same.When she was on stage it was a party, she made you feel like you were part of a party not someone in the audience All I know there must have one hell of a party in Heaven!!!!!
She was a very good draw to Woodstock.
Not many knew she was going to be there she really got famous after woodstock .Jimmy Henex,Santana a lot got famous from there that was a time that can't be done again
You're so lucky to have been at Woodstock!...
As a group of Catholic school boys in the 60s we used to get together on a Saturday night and sing our hearts out to her music, especially this one.
Is that where those guys are from?
They're so rocking it!!!
A lotta BS talk about 60s being so full of Love though - bc the people who thought they were "cool" put down Janis for her lack of "feminine beauty"... And Great Talents like Karen Carpenter and John Denver went over the edge when audience decided "no longer cool"
**Younger Folks today way more inclusive and tolerant -- I hope they get their chance to fix the mess those phony boomers made**
(I'm a Boomer-I speak from experience
Thats awesome...she really did share alot w the world...I miss those days ! !
As a girl in a Catholic school right now, I still belt this song out with all my heart.
@@Ella-hg4cq Good to hear, good luck with your career. I have done very well in life and hope to rock with Janis up there.
To you and to Ella , wow , just wow. Big hug to you both.
This is the first time I heard her sing and OMG she is AMAZING. Brilliant voice and very beautiful too! R.I.P Janis❤
No way that voice is coming out of her what the hell just found out about her from my music history class it’s awesome to hear honestly really unique nothing like I’ve ever heard
"No way that voice is coming out of her" Right? A tiny bit of a woman, who'd think that she had so much power and feeling? Edit to add: I'm glad you (and presumably your classmates on music history) have discovered her. You'll never forget her, I can assure you.
@@paulavitoria1798so powerful it really is amazing i love it so much and i definitely will
not forget her
As I get older i find myself on certain nights stumbling back on artists I knew about and listened to when I was younger, BUT was to young to appreciate how amazing they are and dear god Janis was one of them. Just a goddess in the music scene such a unique voice and such amazing charisma I envy all of you who were lucky enough to see here live
I just love how sweet she was.. and friendly and a legend she was! This video of her dancing and holding her fans and stuff made me cry happy tears.
@@Yes-bp1vw Umm no try someone who was viciously bullied by people similar to you and unfortunately coping with a substance to numb the pain 😥
Omg so did I 😥😭😭😭
It’s crazy. In this type of rock, you can totally hear the inspiration it took from blues music
Anjie, it was all about The Blues. Great music came out of that time and much more followed.
She considered herself a Blues singer.
and gospel
Yeah
Love this woman and her soul singing, her on pitch raunchy sounding voice.
What a performance she gave her audience, on a bottle a night of southern comfort?
this is real raw talent.....unlike all these manufactured "pretty" girls....rock n roll is "ugly".... this woman wasn't afraid to get "ugly" w it, and she was beautiful because of it
And she welcomed it. She was herself on stage, just pure and simple. She invited you to be yourself in the audience and feel the music with her, truly an artist and amazing person.
True. Joplin wasn't all song-and-dance about being a "strong" woman or any of that shit because she didn't need it. She was just damn good full stop.
that was a pleasure to have heard,thats when music was written,not copied
+Edward Cullen perfectly stated! I love your comment!
+Clarence Witt I love your comment too! So sweet!
When she picks and hugs that poor shy girl in her Linus blanket , you knew Janis's heart
Yay! Happy late birthday to her! Wish she was still with us to continue blessing us with her music 💕🙏
I think she was high, not shy 😅 But yuh I agree that was really cute
I wonder if that woman has seen or been shown this video since. What a memory! I’d do anything for a whiff of Janis’ scent ❤️🌹 RIP Queen. We all still love you world over.
@@dba4292 sad
You would never see artist today pulling people out of the audience and sing and dance with them! 2020 and still Loving Janis
Saw Iggy Pop do it 5 years ago at a UK festival. Him and a security guard were playing tug of war with the poor bloke. Iggy won in the end but yeah, these day's are long gone.
probably because of safety issues tho
Probably because of that mochi fudger who shot dimebag Darrel
Have you seen Kanye’s Sunday services?
You've never been at a Nick Cave concert, bless you
I absolutely love this woman! So authentic! So much heart and soul! R.I.P. to the great Janis Joplin!!
I don't even know what to say. I am crying, smiling, cheering. I love this.
Damn dude! They were freaking jamming! Amazing singer of course, and that band were sick!
she's a true blue rocker, She was unmatchable, one of a kind for sure, and I loved her...
really sexy,too.....she knew how to move!!
Denene Wilcox.
The Greatest.
Hi there.. how are you doing? Happy new year.. 🎊🎈 in good health..
She may not have been here for a long time, but she was certainly here for a good time.
That girl partied .
She was one of a kind. Nobody has come close.
...Tina.
She IS And Was The Best! I Think She Grooves With Others In The Everlasting World Of GOD, GOD Don't Give Or Gave A Person This Kind OF Talent And Let It Perish, No Way! Love YOU Lord JESUS, BLess Her Soul!
john Travolta
Justin Bieber!
Robert Plant
She was so good and she was so generous with everyone. Yet! where ever she went, Janis has shed so much light and so much love around her that she became the epitomy of Blues music. Except for a few high school dummies, from Texas, that she left behind, the whole entire world just loved her.
She reminds me so much of my mother it brings tears to my eyes...rest In ☮️ to 2 beautiful souls.
I might be young but I love her music it touches your soul
Bin 66 Jahre und feiere sie immer noch. Auf keiner Party in meinem Kreis ist sie immer dabei
Sorry, auf jeder Party ist sie dabei. Schreibfehler 😊
@@yvonneschneising5740 huh
I never saw anybody putting so much passion when singing... She was all heart... and lungs!
51 years ago today and there’s never been another! Rest easy Pearl, the drinks are on us. Raising a glass in your honor!
People would say she was so ugly. For the life of me, I never ever saw her that way. She was slim and trim, thick hair, a bit of a native pretty look to her eyes, never needed makeup and could sing like angels calling from heaven.
She's not beautiful, but she's gritty and tough. That's what I want to be, personally.
@@OGDweeb I would definitely call her beautiful. I'm not sure anybody would argue with that.
She was slim from the drugs💔
Valerie Underhill This might sound weird but I am watching her story on tv thinking man I think Janice is extremely cute and I came here looking through comments to see if anyone brought up what they thought of her looks. I am with you completely!
She could sing and that’s what mattered all those that say she is ugly can F off
I can't believe anyone would say anything negative about Janis. She remains the ultimate ROCK GODDESS... decades after her death!! No one compares to her, absolutely no one, not even close!!
Just pure talent..........simply amazing! Unfortunately, there will never be another Janis Joplin.
I'm at work and I'm tearing up watching this. What an incredible, timeless talent
get back to work;.
I'm here because I like Janis Joplin!
Of course!! The one and only...Janis Joplin!!
No one care what this!
We all like Janis!
of course
Det er en så sjukt sjef kommentar!
Aren't we all?
I can't get over this performance. I'm obsessed 😍.
could u imagine someone like Cheryl cole getting so into the music like this!! Janis is too cool for todays 'singers'
+seco ndo Today's singers sound like foghorns. The only one who had any soul was Amy Winehouse and she's gone.
***** I'm sorry but to me they sound typical of the singers these days - too deliberate and self conscious with a tendency to go for soaring vocals at the expense of real emotion. that's just my personal opinion, I'm sure others disagree. Thanks for the suggestions though.
+dot no way you can pull off ''soaring'' vocals with no emotion. unless you're an opera singer that is
juancho94 perhaps I should have said powerhouse vocals.ever heard of Cher?
heard a couple tunes, anyone in particular?
How lucky they were to be on stage with Janis Joplin!!
Back when audience members could come on stage and rock with her.
Lol, you should go to a 200 Stab Wounds show. People are all over the stage running around and flipping off it and trying to sing into the mic at the chorus it's hilarious
Janis Joplin is a legend and a great spirit!
She was quite intelligent and free...
Janis Joplin's music is still fresh.
...and always remembered.
You see the video, the music 🎶 starts, and that fantastic voice sings the song! Love it ❤️.
How people dislike it? WTF man... Janis Joplin, the queen of the rock n roll o/
NuNo MaGuS queen of bluesy rock ;)
That would be Tina Turner.
Janis, Tina Tuner and Grace Slick- the Goddess of Rock n Roll
Bruno Yamashita I completly agree you
Nugtroen
Born far too late to meet her in person, the best I can get is old footage. What strikes me most about Janis is how in her daily role, in interviews and in conversation she was so very shy and quiet- yet she had such an enormous stage presence, when she performed she exploded with confident energy.
esti un bou!!!!nu ai inteles nimic,!!!!!!!!!
liquid courage
Alice Kirbyson As well as Freddie Mercury who was a shy person but as soon as he took the stage he owned every bit of it
Alice Kirbyson like Florence welch who i love just the same!
She was probably high to be honest
This girl who was allowed on the stage to share the experience and all the others! GROOVY
The lady
I know songs make everyone think of a specific time and place, but why not share it? I'm driving down U-S 385 toward Brownfield, TX in my '55 Chevy, windows down on a very hot summer day and singing along with Janice at the top of my lungs, summer of '69.
Sounds like heaven to me.
FUE ALGO MARAVILLOSO JANIS
QUE FUERZA Y DESGARRO EN LA VOZ, SE DEJABA EL ALMA, VIVÍA INTENSAMEMNTE LO QUE ESTABA CANTANDO
¡¡¡""NO ESWTÁS PERO TE RECORDAMOS"!! NOS HA DEJADO UN BUEN LEGADO.
QUE LAS PERSONAS QUE PUBLIQUEN PEDIRÍA UN FAVOR:
QUE SE QUEDEN CON LO POSITIVO DE CUALQUIER CANTANTE, Y DEJAR LO NEGATIVO>>
SI RESPLANDECIERON EN AQUELLOS DÍAS ERA PORQUE REALMENTE SERVÍAN.
Grazie
The unbelieveble voice of Janis !! R.I.P. Lady ,you live forever in our hearts !
I don't care what anyone says about her appearance, she was beautiful inside and out. What a talent she was,also the dedication for her fans. Gone to soon ❤️
True. But in fairness she was a bluddy munter.
@@ballpeenbaby No, she wasn't! She had a very tender, almost childlike face, and a truly natural and heartwarming smile!
Et encore une des plus belles images qu'une caméra a pu immortaliser de ces années magnifiques 💗☮🌼
"FEEL GOOD RIGHT NOW !" 😂🤩🥰
She was amazing! That voice is so powerful live! Wow! Wonder what could have been! Legend!
It's wonderful to see all those people dancing on stage, enjoying themselves and seizing the moment. If that was today they'd all have phones out, taking selfies with Janice and posting on social media.
If the technology was around then, they'd be doing the same thing.
@@David_R922 You're probably right.
I can imagine them live streaming on their instagrams and Snapchats
I'm happy to be able to see these videos. It takes me back. She was so gifted.
Just an awesome video and she seems so authentic and friendly. I'm typically not a fan of 60s music but this song is simply amazing.
she put everything, her heart and soul into her songs, so much so weather you liked her or not you had to respect it.
omg! i just love this song what soul she had DAMM PRICELESS
I know, and she's gone forever
+Emily Desmond Her music will last forever though. :)
I saw her at 12 when my brother snuck me into a concert. All the different bands you'll never see the likes of again.
oscarwildeghost i envy you - what a thrill that must have been !
Clutch Cargo I literally was about to type the same response and saw urs!
Regina Fallangie you know what they say about great minds ! You have a good evening.
Oh my god I am so jealous. My
Dad saw her in concert twice. He never stopped talking about it.
I am so jealous
Thank you so much for being in my life Janis. You died a moth before I was born. But my mom loved you were planted in my heart. Music is everything!!. You will always be with us. ✨✌️💜🙏🎶🎶
Janis will always have a piece of my heart, but the big guy in the black tie is why I am favouriting this.
how amazing to watch the response of people to janis so close up - wouldnt it be great if we could hear those people tell their stories? id love to know what journeys brought them to be in this picture.. what an amazing experience it must have been.
+Penelope Greenhough i was thinking the same....are there any of them still among us? i'd like to know them..:)
My my! I wonder if there's a moment when the men and women dancing on stage with Janis sit down with their grandchildren and tell them the story of when they danced with the amazingly talented Janis and the kid says "Janis WHO"? She was incredible and Pops, if you were there you have a great memory and I envy you.
Janus is a fat ugly satanic guy. Transatanist.
@@tonybrown9875 You nicknamed your boyfriend Janis?
I saw her live at the Garden State Art Center in New Jersey. One of favorite memories. Rest in peace, Janis
50 years later she still sends a chill up and down my spine !!!!!!
Isaac Lipman Me, too. I'm 60, & nobody who's come since can touch her.
Same
She was so beautiful and gracious. Great live!
So many told me how ugley she was. and I used to get so mad and acutally fought over that. She was one of the most beautiful people ever when I was in my teens, in all ways. And yes I if I had of been older and in those circles. I would have tried to be her boyfriend and love her with every ounce of my heart.
Gustavo Ferreira
Gustavo,
I saw at the Monterey Pop festival when I was twelve. A truly inspired performance that blew my pubescent mind. I grew around the city from '62 to '73. I was born there but my path started in '62. She was the apple of my young stupid heart. When she died I realized it was not a game. No fun after that. She is Missed.
Will Itig
Aside from being such a great performer, she was such a free spirit that it cut across in the grooves in her albums And, I don't think there's such a thing as an ugly free spirit. Free spirits are by nature beautiful ppl. I think that's the way it works. Anyway, like a lot of ppl, I always felt like she was talking to me thru her songs, that she felt what I was feeling, that she hurt just like I was hurting, but that it was gonna be alright in due time. *("I know you're unhappy, oh, baby, i know, honey I know just how you feel.")*
Gustavo Ferreira we never forget the greatest Janis joplin
Will Itig
*"had've?"*
"HAD HAVE?"
I believe you meant to say "would've," maybe. Or, to put it more precisely, in your vernacular, *"would of."*
Janis was a smart cookie and very articulate. Check out her interviews with Dick Cavett, for instance. Cavett, a very mamby-pamby wordy talk show host, gets his clock cleaned by that tiny 'lil 'ol gal from Port Arthur, Texas.
Haha!
Naw, my fine feathered illiterate fella, Janis never *"would of"* taken the least bit of interest on a silly boy using BAD English. And, you better know it. HAHA!
50 years since her death and still a legend
You got a pice of my heart forever Janis R.I.P
One of the most natural performer of all time. Husky voice and sang from her soul. No scripted singing.. Nothing like this nowadays❤
Drugs may have taken her life, but not being able to deal with reality killed her. I will always have her in my heart. She never knew how great she was.....
ua-cam.com/video/FmcqFajGEUc/v-deo.html
Matt ferrill sure did
Norma Trimble I agree
Norma Trimble
Is she dead?? So sorry to hear that.... rip Janis
LJG I think they mean she took Heroin because she literally just couldn’t handle real life. Obviously Heroin killed her.
Love the way she interacts with the audience!
Back when you didn’t need filters, makeup and surgeries, Janis was a sex symbol because her voice told the world how beautiful she was. Unfortunately she died to young but her voice will be heard a thousand years after
she is beautiful, always will be
I will Amen to that!!!!
She’s sexy in her own way
Can we stop talking about makeup like it's bad? It's used as way of expression these days
@@kai0tfoool who said anything about makeup being a bad thing?
Man the reason people love this era of music in my opinion is because the artist had a real authentic connection with their audience. Janis was definitely in a lane of her own 🙌🏼❤
