I've got a suggestion for a future reaction video for you!! It was a #1 Soul and Dance hit and a top 10 hit (#8) on the Billboard Hot 100!! The song is called The Rain and the singer is Oran "Juice" Jones(insert play on words here)!! This song has notoriety to it, indicated by the end of the song, and that's all that I'm going to say about it so that I don't ruin it for you!!
As a guitar geek, one of my favorite things about this is that Tracy is playing a guitar built by Canadian luthier Judy Threet. Chapman had owned it for years (8?) and Threet was bowled over when she heard Chapman had chosen to play it here. Her reaction can be found online by searching Judy Threet, who deserves the attention for her beautiful guitars.
I absolutely love the beginning of the performance, when Tracy starts playing the guitar and the crowd is going crazy, and she finally gives this big smile right before she starts singing. It's one of those "you hope they'll remember you, but they never forgot you" moments.
Very rare for two stars to come together and and not compete but just make a super special moment. The respect they have for each other is obvious with the reactions to each other they show.
One of the songs that defined my listening in my younger days. Not only does Luke Combs do a wonderful job, but seeing the song bringing the amazing Tracy Chapman some of the attention she so deserves is so satisfying. I'm THRILLED to see and hear her again.
I saw a bootleg version of this that was filmed from the audience. There was a big screen onstage so what the audience saw was basically what we saw in the video. The audience applauded when they recognized the opening guitar chords, but when the camera panned up and they saw Tracy's face, they just went crazy. I thought that was such a cool moment of respect towards Tracy from all her fans.
When I saw this live on tv and saw the reaction and love from the crowd, and saw Tracy smiling , I thought, “ Yes, Tracy , we all still love you , and never forgot about you, in spite of all of the crazy music the last few decades , you are still relevant !” ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great Music transcends time...Pop stuff will never stand the test of time...Tracy Chapman's has & will continue...Her smiling throughout the performance was just awesome!
This was an incredible collaboration between two unique artists. It was the best performance of the night. Totally agree with your assessment about today’s performances. The slower, simpler arrangements that softly touch the soul are rare. You can tell the audience is loving it. ❤
This moment was so special. Something was healed between Gen X and Millenials. Taylor standing front row not caring cause "Why aren't you standing for this?" Brandi Carlile and her wife having Lilith Fair flashbacks. Gorgeous.
Tracy's smile says it all! A great song just got a little better with these 2. Luke is not trying to upstage Tracy & rather happy to just be there with her!
I was lucky to see Tracy Chapman live in one of the Amnesty International Concert. She was so good! She did a duo with Peter Gabriel on "Don't Give Up." It was electrifying. My friend in grad school knew Tracy in college.
Totally a vibe ! & yes you're right Maggie.., SO miss the rolling 'Chill enjoyment' of a groove like this.., & I wish song like this still charted.... It reminds me of something like, a Des'ree : ' You Gotta Be' or a Bic Runga : 'Sway' ... so good, & this song deserved it's comeback ! , Thanks Luke, & certainly thanks Tracey !!
Love Love Love this song. Loved it in 1988. Love it in 2024. So happy that this song was introduced to a whole new generation. My only criticism is I would have loved harmonies. But I get that they didn’t want to change the vibe of the song.
Chapman has become almost a recluse in recent years - not performing, recording or giving interviews. There was a "little" buzz before the Grammy's that she "might" show up, so when the crowd realized it was actually her there that's part of the reason they went a little crazy (and for the little grin on her face :) ).
The first time i heard about Luke Combs was when i was searvhing this song on spotify and another artis who was Luke came up too, and i had a listen, i thought his voice was amazing in this song
The fact that they don't go into harmonies on the chorus drove me nuts: no reason not to, and it would have sounded amazing. That being said, love this performance. Just the cheers from the crowd when they realize it's Tracy playing is enough to warm your heart. Song speaks for itself, and it's why I love that Luke didn't change the gender pronouns when he covered it: it was just a song he loved, and just he wanted to sing it. That it wound up doing so well is icing on the cake, as they say...
In the duet parts you know Luke is holding back out of total respect for the brilliance of Tracy. There are a few female singers that as they get older their voices go from being amazing to stratospherically good. Apart from Tracy, Joni Mitchel is another. Listen to the original of Both Sides Now then the version from 2000 to see what I mean

Her voice has not lost any of its power and tone........after 40 years. AMAZING!

Since 2001 so 23 years.

I was an 80's rock guy, Metallica, Van Halen, Styx...
When I first heard this song, I bought the CD and wore it out! She's such a talented songwriter.

You can tell he loves her music….very cool
that was truly awesome!! Have loved Tracy Chapman for years. Never been a big Luke Combs fan, but, I was impressed. The dude has a voice for sure!!
Their voices complement each other so nicely.

My gosh their voices blend so beautifully!
Also… so glad to see Tracy performing again

38 years old I remember this song from my childhood absolutely love this
I love that they got to sing together! It was magical! Fantastical reaction, Maggie!
Thank you so much!! 🎁🐧👍💖🤗
Tracy is amazing.
Tracy is just absolutely amazing. Truly talented. Musician, song writer, and singer.
This was an incredible collaboration between two unique artists. It was the best performance of the night.

It wasn't just the best performance of the the night, Tracy & Luke gave us a GIFT that we should cherish!
Watching the joy on Lukes face singing with his idol is so cute.
This moment was so special. Something was healed between Gen X and Millenials. Taylor standing front row not caring cause "Why aren't you standing for this?" Brandi Carlile and her wife having Lilith Fair flashbacks. Gorgeous.
No, millennials are boomers 2.0 - spoiled, narcissistic & dragging society backward just as the boomers did & still are.
Tracy's smile says it all! A great song just got a little better with these 2. Luke is not trying to upstage Tracy & rather happy to just be there with her!

Classic song, awesome performance, two great artists what more could we ask for? FANTASTIC
Gorgeous voicess, powerful minimalist lyrics, and complex underneath apparent simplicity.
And I like Luke's "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!" bow at the end.
Tracy is one of my all time fav Female artists, I loved this
Totally a vibe ! & yes you're right Maggie.., SO miss the rolling 'Chill enjoyment' of a groove like this.., & I wish song like this still charted....
It reminds me of something like, a Des'ree : ' You Gotta Be' or a Bic Runga : 'Sway' ... so good, & this song deserved it's comeback ! , Thanks Luke, & certainly thanks Tracey !!
both sound great-real 'easy listening' type music-relaxing with a drink kind of song

My gosh!!!❤ i loved this song
That's truly amazing.
Tracy is awesome as always. Luke is good too 😊. Great colab! Peace, Love!!
You should check out Luke’s song Beautiful Crazy. It really shows off how amazing his voice is.
The first time i heard about Luke Combs was when i was searvhing this song on spotify and another artis who was Luke came up too, and i had a listen, i thought his voice was amazing in this song
He has said that this song is why he picked up a guitar
Tracy is unique❤
Luke Combs credits Tracy Chapman and this specific song with his hole drive to sing.

Please Check out BGT Syndie Chistmas Incredible. She has the Audition wins golden buzzer then My way and over the rainbow. You have to hear her!!!

Kender du den græske sanger Demis Rousos.
Jeg vil elske at se din reaktion på nummeret "My Friend The Vind" LIVE optagelse fra Royal Albert Hall.
Please react to Chapell Roan?
Nice, but Prefer the original with just her.
I don't think the lyrics make much sense sung by a man.
Do any other version of this. Luke is great but this is watered down bs.
OMG ITS YOU!!!!! THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MUSIC ARTIST EVER!!!!!....OH wait you're a talentless shit head who spends his times noncing kids
