*ANITA BAKER HAS DONE HER OWN HAIR FOR ALL HER MUSIC VIDEOS BECAUSE RECORD LABELS ALWAYS WANTED HER TO WEAR THESE LONG RIDICULOUS WEAVES....SHE IS NOW KNOWN FOR HER FAMOUS SHORT HAIR ✂️ CUTS....OH AND SHE WROTE THIS SONG TO HER HUSBAND AT THE TIME*
If you want to be blown away by another "petite" songstress, check out Stephanie Mills! Particularly her performing "Home" live. Great reaction as always. Anita Baker is the epitome of a Songstress and an Icon. I remember getting the "Anita Baker" hairstyle back in my teens. Such great memories. And yes her music is timeless.
Rodney Davis I saw Stephanie live at an outdoor concert. I had to stand out my chair to see her on stage. She literally looked like a little doll on stage. Teenie Tiny and cute as a button. Now I’m only 5’2 but feel so much taller! 😂🤣
I can literally see the appreciation of music in your expressions …..Anita’s music HITS listeners , glad you found her bruh, my mom played so much of her when i was a kid and I’ve been a fan ever since
She makes you feel what she's singing - wait till you listen to "No One In The World" - it's all that!! Great reaction tho, that's the way it's supposed to be!!!😊
This song is so relaxing. Anita Baker was a big influence on Mary J Blige. Do a reaction on Mary J Blige Love No Limit and it was a BIG SONG TO GIVE PROPS TO ANITA BAKER
i remember walking down the street with my earphones on listening to "You Bring Me Joy" by Anita Baker on a warm spring morning in the mid 2000's. that song was the hug I needed in that moment. it felt soo good at that moment.
Jack, I LOVE...LOVE...LOVE your reactions to Anita Baker! She is my favorite artist of ALL TIME with Sade coming in next. I grew up with my mom listening to her (I am 53), I went to a concert in college to see her (alone, which is how much I love her!) and my husband and I, many years later when to see her in Atlanta. She is retired now (bummer), but I still listen to her. This is also the song my husband and I danced to at our wedding (I am African-American and he is Caucasian) Verse: "I bet everything, on my wedding ring." I love how much you appreciate her voice! It's untouchable. Thanks for the reaction and God bless:)
I watched this at least 3 times lol. First, for your reaction, and second and third just to let the song vibe. Truly whatever song you do from her I'm gonna like. Her voice is incredible like a bass clarinet or oboe I could be wrong but definitely a musical instrument. I agree her voice is timeless, just like the songs are about love and commitment that are beyond the superficial and withstand the test of time. Anita sings with her soul.
I knew you’d love this song. My mom played Anita Baker since I was in diapers and a car seat. I’m 22 and still listen to her. One of my favorite soul singers. *Another one to listen to is Luther Vandross - “A house is not a home” or “If only for one night”*
Hi Jack Anita Baker is one of my top best artist she is up there she is amazing... Her voice is so soulful and she still has that soul in her voice if you could react to her and Regina Belle at Anita's concert it is on YT... Do more reactions to her she is phenomenal and react to Regina Belle....

Great reaction. You nailed it, Jack. She is so classy and so timeless and this song always hits me in the heart. Please do "You Bring Me Joy", it will bring YOU joy!
When this album came out, this was my favorite song! I will say my all time favorite Anita Baker song is off her Composition album called 'Whatever it Takes' I don't believe there's a video for that but it's definitely one for you to listen to.
Jack, your analysis is amazing. And the obvious love you have for kicking singers-fierce old school female singers is so appreciated - for someone so young. You got it, youngblood!
Fun fact: I’m almost certain that Michael Jordan would, while playing, would hit opponents with a few “Giving you the best that I got” when up close and personal to get in their heads! Also: singer Tamia would go on to tribute Anita Baker with this song. It was especially personal because Baker introduced Tami who would go on to be her husband Grant Hill and when the lyric says “I bet everything, on my wedding ring” Tamia flashed it and winked!
Anita is my stranded on an island artist whose discography i would want to have. You talked right over that "i bet everything, on my wedding ring" near the end. Wait until you hear Just Because!
I just fell in love with her voice. First I heard "sweet love" and search all her songs but man, when I Heard 'Giving you the best that I got'this turn into my title of life. Great video Jack

She is an amazing song writers. Some of her best songs are penned herself! 😲
She is my favorite Female vocalist still. Her voice is her instrument.
She won 2 Grammys and 3 Soul Train Music Awards in 1989 from this song alone. Very big song for her.
Anita Baker is one of a kind. Her voice is so smooth and powerful!

A lesser hit but still a great song is "No One in the World." My favorite bridge of any Anita Baker song.
This is an incredibly GORgeous song - and that VOICE. One of my all time favorites. Occasionally makes me shed a tear or two.
I just cried 😩😭😭

Anita Baker- Been so long is one of my favorites
She definitely has a top ten voice ever
THIS KID JACK BEEN ON THIS EARTH BEFORE
Fun fact: I’m almost certain that Michael Jordan would, while playing, would hit opponents with a few “Giving you the best that I got” when up close and personal to get in their heads!
Also: singer Tamia would go on to tribute Anita Baker with this song. It was especially personal because Baker introduced Tami who would go on to be her husband Grant Hill and when the lyric says “I bet everything, on my wedding ring” Tamia flashed it and winked!
Amazing!!!! Thanks so much!!!
