heard you on the radio on some random station in Boston while flipping through, (I'm a truck driver) and I'd never heard the song. I was so taken by it that I risked life and limb driving with one knee in Dorchester while scribbling some of the lyrics on a diesel reciept so I could look this song up. You've the song great justice and you have an amazing grasp at the soul of this piece. Well done!
Thank you, this means so much to me im very greatful. Im sorry you risked your limbs but thank you for bringing a huge smile to my face. Lots of love xxxx
I first heard this sung in my kitchen by 2 members of a rock band at 5am. We were in a hoop. The film footage is called "Kitchen Sessions" is on my page. Your version is my shower song!!

I clicked this video yesterday because I thought the song title was interesting. Since then I’ve listened to Jackson’s album twice and learned of his tragic life story. I don’t know how I missed his music for 52 years, but I sure am grateful you introduced me to it. Still, I keep coming back and listening to this searingly beautiful cover because your voice is just incredible and your version seems to me just as authentic as the original.
Wow! You have the voice of an Angel. It's one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. This is Us is my favorite show ever. I loved this song from the second I heard it. When "Memphis" aired and I heard this rendition I was absolutely blown away. So beautiful!
Just started watching This Is Us and had to find out who sang this song so beautifully! You have a wonderful voice that fits perfectly with this song. Thank you for giving us this gift!
great cover! you are joining the ranks of the musical elite who tackled this JCF song including Sandy Denny, Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Simon and Garfunkel and Nick Drake.
This must be a record....I am listening to this song from morning.....and I cant stop listening to it.....Thanks sharing such a pure part of ur soul......I never thought I could listen to same song whole day....Sunday WELL SPENT!!
Deserve so much attention.. so underrated , talented soul , touching voice, everytime I go to work, can't stop listenning to this cover 😢 deserve more views and more followers!
The Jackson C Frank version is one of my favorite songs, and I think I adore your rendition just as much! Somehow it feels like a classic; like a song that was sang and recorded decades ago. Lovely
Dan Hoy said it beautifully. All I want to add, Janileigh, is that I've worked with literally thousands of artists and very few, in my opinion, have as distinctive, compelling and as lovely a voice as yours. You deserve great success. I hope you attain it.
How do you manage to simultaneously make it sound so effortless, and yet make it feel like you gave us a piece of your soul? Lovely version of a super song. Thank you!
Whatever you do - don't give up. I know every artist hates comparisons but there's a piece of Joan Baez in you, maybe some Janis too. Others I could mention come to mind. Too lovely for this world. Take care and all the best. X
Absolutely beautiful young lady, what a tribute to a tormented talent like Jackson Frank I was haunted by this song when I heard it on "this is Us"and swear I heard it years ago, so I picked up my Taylor and went hunting when I found this. You have the voice of an angel.
Ah well Janileigh Cohen, you just gave me all the feels. I never write comments on anything, but there are always exceptions, and you're exceptional. This is my favourite song because I can relate to it more than any other song. You sang it beautifully and emotionally, with heart as if you have lived it. I get Courtney Barnett vibes from you, so def gonna give you a follow.
I know for sure no one is gonna cover this song as beautifully as you did. Your energy is unique to this universe, I hope you never stop singing. Lots of love from Italy xx
I originally found your video a few months ago - I was looking for covers of this song after I fell in love with it from "This is Us". Imagine my delight when they played YOUR VERSION on the most recent episode (2/21/17). I recognized your voice immediately. WAY TO GO!
I’ve been in love with this song recently since I randomly found October by Jackson C Frank. I was searching for October by Jonas Alaska and fell across Frank and am now in love with Blues Run the Game. This cover makes my day whenever I listen to it. I’ve found only perfect but different covers of this song. And this is one is beautiful. If you want some more beautiful songs to play or just listen I would recommend listening to Needle of Death by Bert Jansch and May you Never by John Martyn. And to challenge your guitar skills Anji/Angie by Davy Graham/Bert Jansch and Piano Tune by Bert Jansch and John Renbourn.
Jani your performance of , "Blues Runs The Game" , is so powerful and natural! I was truly blown away by your sensitive portrayal of this classic song. Thank you for doing this one!
I used my Shazam a lot of times to find out this song while watching This Is Us episode 16 but Shazam failed to recognize it. I am so glad to have found this!!! Amazing❤
A friend of mine gave me link to this on my birthday. And I'm really glad for that! This is one of the most soul-touching pieces I've ever listened to! This is the song I want to listen to as I fall asleep watching the moon on a chilled winter night
This has been my favorite song since it originally came out. No one has touched the original in my mind. Till now, wow! You have captured the soul if this song perfectly.
Wow. Simply wow. Tears, and yet somehow hope, streaming down my face and in my heart. I hope you release an album soon! Thank you for sharing a piece of yourself with us.
Love this song and love your cover of this song. Your voice sounds like you came straight out of the late 60's/early 70's folk music scene. Absolutely beautiful.
Have you ever covered "Both Sides Now" by Joni Mitchell? I think your voice and that song would fit together very well. "Catch The Wind" by Donovan would be really good too.
this is one of my favorite songs in the world, you made it even better. you're voice is so clear and stunning and suits it so well. thank you so much, i'm gonna have this on repeat for a long time:)
Definitely the best cover I have ever heard of this wonderful song - your playing and your voice is simply angelic - what a treat - thanks so much - I just love this LP
"This Is Us" brought me here.. your voice is beautiful & your version of this song is amazing!
Same
Same here😊
Same 🤣
Sameeeee
Yes, especially in the episode called Memphis on season 2, damn it makes me cry a lot, what beautiful rendition of this song
heard you on the radio on some random station in Boston while flipping through, (I'm a truck driver) and I'd never heard the song. I was so taken by it that I risked life and limb driving with one knee in Dorchester while scribbling some of the lyrics on a diesel reciept so I could look this song up. You've the song great justice and you have an amazing grasp at the soul of this piece. Well done!
Thank you, this means so much to me im very greatful. Im sorry you risked your limbs but thank you for bringing a huge smile to my face. Lots of love xxxx
LOL ! I can relate -- not a truck driver, but I've scribbled the station and time I heard a song so I could look it up.
Wow!
They should play the original too
Great reply buddy. I'm a Uk Irish dispatch guy and did the same thing. Such a shame regards Jackson. What a talent what a tune. Cheers
This is Us :)
I just want to thank everyone for your support, means the world. My ep is available for free download at www.janileighcohen.bandcamp.com xxx
Janileigh Cohen lost my wife in June which makes me think of her
So sorry for your loss, Ron.
Sorry for your loss ron, thank you for taking the time to listen and i hope it creates a sense of love. May your wife rest in paradise all my love x
I first heard this sung in my kitchen by 2 members of a rock band at 5am. We were in a hoop. The film footage is called "Kitchen Sessions" is on my page. Your version is my shower song!!

This should have at least a million views by now😢
Verse 1]
Catch a boat to England, baby
Maybe to Spain
Wherever I have gone
Wherever I've been and gone
Wherever I have gone
The blues are all the same
[Verse 2]
Send out for whisky, baby Send out for gin Me and room service, honey Me and room service, babe Me and room service Well, we're living a life of sin
[Verse 3]
When I'm not drinking, baby
You are on my mind
When I'm not sleeping, honey
When I ain't sleeping, mama
When I'm not sleeping
You know you'll find me crying
[Verse 4]
Try another city, baby Another town Wherever I have gone Wherever I've been and gone Wherever I have gone The blues come following down
[Verse 5]
Living is a gamble, baby Loving's much the same Wherever I have played Whenever I've thrown them dice Wherever I have played The blues have run the game
[Verse 6]
Maybe tomorrow, honey
Someplace down the line
I'll wake up older
So much older, mama
I'll wake up older
And I'll just stop all my tryin'
[Verse 1/Outro]
Catch a boat to England, baby
Maybe to Spain
Wherever I have gone
Wherever I've been and gone
Wherever I have gone
The blues are all the same

Such a captivating paired back version of a classic, this simplicity ain’t as simple as they make it appear!👍✌🏾

Heard this lovely cover played in the movie "The Sunlit Night". Just gorgeous. Bravo 👏
Those brooding eyes... go right with the song!
Loved this song. Heard it first on This is us. The original version is fabulous. But also loved the female voice...such a haunting quality
Dan Hoy said it beautifully. All I want to add, Janileigh, is that I've worked with literally thousands of artists and very few, in my opinion, have as distinctive, compelling and as lovely a voice as yours. You deserve great success. I hope you attain it.
You so did Jackson Frank right on this cover. Bravo.

This is us on NBC brought me here. Beautiful song.
It's a sedative, soothing way to relieve the pain, to be honest.
THIS IS US! took so long to hunt you down
Love your version! Breathtakingly beautiful
this is one of the most beautiful covers I've ever heard. Brings tears and joy.

Fell in love... and it broke my heart. *gobble* , *pop* "Noice!" - (Added comma between gobble and pop.)

Have you ever covered "Both Sides Now" by Joni Mitchell? I think your voice and that song would fit together very well. "Catch The Wind" by Donovan would be really good too.
Incredibly beautiful music - what a wonderful clear voice - doesn’t fall one inch behind the original...
WoW...no kidding. Great song, nice cover.
damn, this is exceptional. the way you feel the song... a work of art. i'm speechless.
