I hadn't heard of her before watching this, and man, I thought that it was the best performance that night. My mouth was agape and I just went.."WHOAAAA!!!!"
I'm watching because of Paolo Nutini who covered Let Me Down Easy...always trust Paolo and his musical taste and I'm sorry to say it took me this long to discover Bettye...better late than never. Going to see her live in December
Bettye has always known how to cut to bone inside of me. Life seems so much better after listening to her soul. Call it schadenfreude if you will, but there is something comforting knowing you are not the only one in this world to suffer and blues has always found a way of uplifting ones inner self. Huge respect for Bettye who I have always felt lived in Tina Turner's shadow; not to denigrate Tina because she certainly struggled for where she is, but for me, Bettye's songs have more meaning.
I love how she changed up the words from the Black Keys (who I also love). She is amazing, I always feel like she is singing from my heart. Can't wait to see her in concert...
Who the hell is scandal??? Bettye LaVette is a gem...Shidd if they didn't have nothing else to talk about, they would probably talk about you!! I say go girl!!!
My bad scandal is a show...dang! I gotta stop working so much!! I was bout to go bad, they messing with this OG, she been around for a minute..sang BETTYE!
And I think it's great that she's an older person. The music industry hardly ever gives Older folks a chance to make it. That's why I never watch American Idol and the like. If Etta James hadn't done that Jaguar commercial (At Last) her talent would never have been rediscovered. Thank God Scandal featured Betty Lavette.I already bought this song on Amazon.
Totally agree with Stephanie, not heard of her before now. I've bought her album because of her performance on Jools but I have to say this live version is much better than the album version
Not angry, just worring about why they didn't knew about this song before any TV program like Scandal. This is unfair for this excellent song. Just that :)

Great Song
That intro is hard as hell.
I heard this song on Scandal; however, THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS VIDEO TO UA-cam... :)
Message to you and for all who said about Scandal!
Notice: The name of this UA-cam Channel is not Scandal but ... TheGRStars
Thank You!
Everybody talk about Scandal
Scandal upload this video in UA-cam?
I thought it was me ...!
Ha ha ha ha ha :)
It seems so funny!
Well we would have NEVER found your video if it had not been for the TV show Scandal!
So .. TV controls our taste of music then! And not our real need of discovering music. Am I right?
I aint the one!!
Not angry, just worring about why they didn't knew about this song before any TV program like Scandal.
This is unfair for this excellent song. Just that :)
its because Scandal featured her version and made it famous.
love scandal the show brought me here
Well we are watching because of Scandal!
Wow. Age has nothing on that voice.
+BROTHER TRUTH Unfortunately it does. I've seen her yesterday and it was very bad :(
How could that be? Do you think she just had an off night? I've never heard her sing bad ever.
SPEEACHLESS
Lol why are you getting so angry? people have to find music somewhere. chill out!
F
