    Lots of covers, but I feel the pain and resignation of the lyrics with Bonnie's version more than any other.

      The word he was searching for was REAL. This song is exactly how it is.

    • @patsmith8035

      It might be worth listening to Chase Truran an American singer with a group called Foxes And Fossils.This is a solo cover though.

      My favorite cover of this is by Prince. Check out his version. I am

    Willie Nelson said there are 2 types of men. Those who love Bonnie Raitt and those who have never heard of her.

      actually, he said that about Linda Ronstadt

      @ridingtheroad185 7 місяців тому

      Willie Nelson once said “There are two types of men in the world: those who are in love with Bonnie Raitt, and those who’ve never heard of her.” I would guess there are very few men or women over the age of 40 who are in the second group, and a whole lot of us in the first.@@jamesnorrisbarrett8927

    Best howling at the moon ,accepting your grief love song ever . Gives dignity to losing at love. Think you might have choked up a bit, I’ve sobbed openly to this song many times back in the day. She is a amazing musician

    Yes this is amazing Her pianist on this is Bruce Hornsby (amazing), but she is so special. She is a great slide blues guitarist as well, one of the greatest ever. In 2023, she won best song grammy for her own song, Just Like That, which is emotional and surprising. I highly recommend that. As for her slide blues talents, almost any song is great, but more recent live versions of Love Me Like A Man will show her guitar prowess, as well as her voice. I Can't Make You Love Me can make a stone cry.

  • @karenmikalofsky5287

    No one does it better than Bonnie, don't waste your time. She has so many songs to listen to. She's
    been my favorite female singer since the 70's. She's has a beautiful spirit that shines through all of her music. If you want to a soul crushing experience listen to "Just Like That", one of the most powerful songs of her career. Written and produced by Bonnie, it received a Grammy in 2022 for song of the year.

    The primary writer, Mike Reid, is a former 1st round draft pick and all-pro NFL defensive lineman for the Cincinnati Bengals.
    He was an absolute beast who retired early because he didn't want to do any more damage his hands. He was a classically trained pianist, and he loved music more than football. He has written a ton of hit songs for others and had one hit himself.

    I think most of us, at some point or another, have been THERE. To realize that you are not as important in some else's world as they are in yours....or to be made to feel as if you are an after thought. Always tread lightly in affairs of the heart....

    A very "adult" or mature song. Coming to the realization that while someone may like you and enjoy your company, they will never love you regardless how much you love them. Yeah, a lot of us have been through that. The lyrics tell of someone who won't carry on and make a fool out of themselves over a lost cause (like too many people do).

    In 2019 I had the good fortune to see Mark Knopfler AND Bonnie Raitt in concert, and Mark sang "Romeo and Juliet" in his set, and Bonnie sang "I Can't Make You Love Me" in her set. Imagine hearing two of the greatest broken hearted love songs played by the masters in one evening. I will not forget this.

    Bonnie will always bring a tear to your eye. Something almost all of the covers fail to do and this song will always be hers. IMO the closest "emotionally" to her version I've heard would be the one done by Tank. It's an R&B version with lots of runs but unlike the completely emotionally dead versions like those done by Teddy Swims you can actually feel the pain and sincerity in it vs just doing a vocal performance showcasing runs with no respect for the material.
    Feelings come through in a performance and if you're just trying to hit a note you're not going to move anyone in your audience.
