Melissa is the only woman I've heard do this 100% justice. It's the natural grittiness her voice has, just like Janis. Most other women try to force it and it just sounds off
Having just grown my hair out after chemo, I will never forget the emotion I felt seeing her walk out on stage and sing this song so powerfully. I wished then, that I had had the sense of humor to go out in public, bald. This was a big deal. I have seen Melissa sing this song since, but never with the same intensity as she did that night.
Honestly, not no dis Janis Joplin, but you, NAILED this song! I hope you are doing well Melissa! Saw your performance of this GREAT song on the Grammy Awards years ago. You knocked it out of the park! Many thanks for the WOW that night!! I have NEVER forgot!
Melissa is bald because she is fresh from chemotherapy...and she walked on the stage and did THIS....If Janis had been here, she would've loved every second.
Zuerst dachte ich, oh Mist für ML zusammen mit der überkrassen Joss Stone ein Duett zu machen. Aber Melissa Etheridge hat hier mal eben Joss Stone zur Backing Vocals und Tänzerin degradiert.
So their only choice would've been "move over"? Mercedes Benz and Move over were her only self written singles released and they were the B sides and never charted. Bobby McGee and Piece of my heart were her only singles to chart well and internationally and Bobby would be too low key for this so it leaves Piece of My Heart. Pearl was released Posthumously with those songs. She only made 3 albums before her death. She said "I'm not really a song writer when I come up with a tune it's just feeling". Most of her song credits came because she arranged a song.
This was, in fact, the first appearance she had after beating the big C. And if it you think it was powerful BEFORE that? Considering the strength that takes...yeah.
Janis joplin would have been very proud!!! Melissa Etheridge was phenomenal!!!
Melissa Etheridge is a bonafide badass!!!
This will almost 16 years ago in a few weeks, God bless Melissa who pulled through and is still here with us!

This is Just Right!

I agree. Melissa rocked it. I had goose bumps on my arms.

I'm sorry joss stone out of her league..should just be Melissa
@tupacamaru2 Joss was 17 here not 19
Joss Stone should have walked off the stage
Damn Melissa great job joss who ?
A wolf in sheep's clothing
It is sad to celebrate Jenis with a song she did not compose. WACK.

Can somebody tell me why she's bald in this.
She'd just been through chemotherapy.
Woody Reid My apologies to the lady,I didn't no.
