Maybe look up some Bruce Hornsby & the Range tunes? Also - "Angel from Montgomery" is a signature Bonnie Raitt tune - written by the late, great John Prine.
Ahhhhhh, for an alto, this is one of the BEST songs to sing EVER! Bonnie did it so beautifully. She recorded it in one take. And you gotta love that gorgeous piano, played unmistakenly by Bruce Hornsby.
Can't argue with you .. Beautifully sad is exactly what it is .. And I can't think of any other songs that say it better .. Bonnie does it absolutely perfectly.
To understand this song you need to have lived through a bittersweet relationship of unrequited love. That means you have to be of a certain age. Yet it's difficult for people to move past their recency bias'. When viewed objectively for interpretation and the production on the record, no other record, which would be a cover, comes near this version. This is a woman of experience that has been through something, and it shows. This version is the benchmark, the heavyweight champion. All other versions are just contenders.
I wish I could thank my best friend for introducing me to Bonnie's music before he passed in the late 70s. I have danced, laughed, and cried a million tears to her music. We used to have songs about love, but now songs are about hooking up.
Wilburn: absolutely wonderful you show a large screen of Bonnie Raitt's wonderful performance it adds so much to our enjoyment of this exceptional talent, singer, song-writer guitarist. Thank you! Really like the piano accompiament also.
Hornsby and Raitt together on this makes an incrediable pair up to create the emotional impact that delivers the message of the lyrics. So beautiful and powerful.
Combination of Bonnie and her voice and lyrics and Bruce and his piano playing can bring a year to your eye! Ton of great music from this lady out there. Enjoy!
Chod, You'll love her "Something To Talk About", "Love Sneakin' Up On You", "Love Me Like A Man" and "Angel From Montgomery". She paid her dues with the blues, and broke thru big time in 1991 with the first song!! She is known for her voice and slide guitar.
Bonnie is a blues woman from her heart and was mentored and played with Mississippi Fred McDowell, who was a true bluesman of the "Hill country blues" tradition. Her first and and onward are gems. Some of my faves are the early to mid 70s(Give it Up, Home Plate, Takin' My Time, Sweet Forgiveness) but you really can find great cuts all the way thru her catalogue, I saw her gig many times back then when I lived in Nashville and often saw her around and about the bohemian/musicians/artists end of town.. One of my favorites ever!
Underrated blues player and singer! Almost anything off her "Luck Of the Draw" or "Nick Of Time" albums is worth a listen. She has a fairly large catalogue and released her first album in 1971 (yeah, it just hit me; 50 years ago). Her father (John Raitt) was a Broadway/Movie musical star (Oklahoma/Carousel among others) so she is genetically well equipped. Enjoy!!!
It’s good that you brought up her Dad. There’s an excellent duet with them titled “Bonnie Raitt and John Raitt with the Boston Pops 1992”, in case you haven’t already discovered this gem. He was still “belting” at 72 !
I've been a Bonnie Raitt fan for forty years and this is not the first song I would chose to introduce her with. What I'm saying is that this woman is not only a great vocalist but she is never without her Stratocaster and a slide on her finger, in other words she is an even more awesome award winning blues slide guitarist, she is a blues and soul queen... worth diving into her library.
She’s a great slide and blues guitarist as well. “ Nick of Time” is another good one. There’s lots of live video of her jamming with many blues guitar icons.
Bonnie has such a warm, wonderful voice. She can rock out, sing the blues, or break your heart like this. Nick of Time is one of my favorite songs. Angel from Montgomery, Thing Called Love, Rock Steady. As others have said- the ever-fab Bruce Hornsby on the piano- worth listening to in his own right.
Bruce Hornsby played some hella fine piano on that track too. The song written by Mike Reid and Allen Shamblin and recorded by American singer Bonnie Raitt for her eleventh studio album Luck of the Draw (1991). The idea for the song came to Reid while reading an article about a man arrested for getting drunk and shooting at his girlfriend's car. The judge asked him if he had learned anything, to which he replied, "I learned, Your Honor, that you can't make a woman love you if she don't." The song was rewritten many times before being finalized, months later. "We wrote, most every week, in Mike's basement," Shamblin told Peter Cooper in an interview with the Nashville Tennessean. "And we'd worked on this song for more than six months. One day, he said, 'Come up to the living room,' where his piano was. He sat down and started playing this melody, and it was one of the most moving pieces of music I'd heard. I mean, it hit me in a hard way ... Instantly, I knew it was the best thing I'd ever been a part of."
This song brings back bittersweet memories. It reminds all of us of the complexities of love. The highest highs and the lowest of lows. This song really touches my soul......
Co-writer Mike Reid received his B.A. in Music from Penn State where he was an All-American defensive tackle and later a first round draft pick for the Cincinnati Bengals where he was an All-Pro defensive lineman. An injury shortened his career but gave him the opportunity to put all his efforts into music. Reid formed a band and started by playing at a Holiday Inn across the river from Cincinnati. He has written 12 number #1 singles and won a 1984 Grammy for Best Country Song "Stranger in My House" recorded by Ronnie Milsap. Mike had a #1 hit himself "Walk on Faith" in 1990. He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005.
Love this song one my all time favorites such a beautiful song and her singing voice omg heartbreaking loving you can feel every bit of emotion all time classic this song you are going love might even make you cry but its also so beautiful.my first love when we broke up listening to this omg. just love this song so much. And the great legend on the keys piano Bruce Hornsby
Shout out to ya Mama & a high-five🖐!! She's got excellent taste!! Bonnie's been dubbed the Daughter of the Blues & the Queen of the Slide Guitar. She's in the generation between the elderly & deceased black blues greats from the Mississippi Delta to Memphis to Chicago & the SRV & Jimmie Vaughan generation. As a result, she's played & sang w/ a ton of incredible musicians from both of those generations, w/ the older gen being her biggest influencers. In fact, the list of musicians/bands that she's collaborated with is stunning & staggering...& varied by genre. However, she's a blueswoman at heart...thru & thru. There's not a musician dead or alive who didn't/wouldn't absolutely jump at the chance to get to play with her. She's that good, that highly respected, & that legendary. Sooo....just stick wit me😂 cuz I know all her bestest songs that I'll be tossing your way in the future! Let me start w/ one that is live, has good audio quality, & also has one of my other favorite blues singers from her generation in it: Bonnie Raitt & Delbert McClinton, Good Man, Good Woman on The Arsenio Hall Show. Thanks my friend! (Don't forget my shout out to Mama!!😉)
Old guy here - first heard Bonnie in 1972 and have loved her ever since. Have to admit though - lost track of her sometime during the late 80's. This is one of my all time favorite songs. Bruce Hornsby on piano added to the beauty of this performance. His piano on The Way It Is (sampled by Tupac) is worth a listen - great piano chorus and riffs.
@Steve Wilkins That's fine - I've done the same thing in the past. And are you aware of Angelina Jordan, a phenomenal young (15) singer from Norway? If not, listen first to her do the old classic What a Difference a Day Makes when she was 8 or 9 (she has big roses in her hair and is interviewed in Norwegian before singing), and follow with A Million Miles, released earlier this year (black and white live version). This should give you a good idea of what she's about. Cheers.
Hi Chod, growing up in the 60s and 70s we had a lot of help from Motown and Atlantic Artists with their Love Songs, that could convey what we wanted to say, it was Win Win .
Bonnie Raitt, pronounced Rate, a great musician. guitarist. and singer. Her father was an amazing singer, mostly on Broadway. Her style is infused with the blue and she personally dug up old black bluesmen to tour with her so they can get paid. Besides this song I love Love Has No Pride, Angel from Montgomery, and Runaway, a cover of an old doo wop song by Del Shannon.
Others have covered this song, but Bonnie Raitt's heart-wrenching rendition is my favorite. Best song re unrequited love IMHO. Shout out to Bruce Hornsby on the piano!
Such a heartbreaking beautiful song. I will never forget the first time that I heard this , I sobbed. What an amazing combination of Bonnie Raitt's ethereal voice, Bruce Hornsby on piano and Don Was' production. Just wonderful 👏
A couple more of my favorites from Bonnie Raitt (pronounced 'rate'); "Have A Heart" and "Nick Of Time" both from her Nick of Time album. Also, a great John Prine song she covered is "Angel From Montgomery".
Fantastic to see Bonnie Raitt get reacted to. Great job. Angel from Montgomery is a great John Prine song she made her own. Another one is Louise. Hell, you will do fine picking anything of hers at random.
Hey Chod My Man!! Michael from Phoenix chiming in again!! So this song has a very impactful meaning in my life!! My wife at the time was leaving me for her best friend(girlfriend)!! I used to cry myself to sleep to this song!! Trust me I know what you mean when you talk about getting thru certain obstacles in your life threw music or a specific song!! Well you hit the nail on the head with this one my friend!! Probably one of the most emotionally heart- crushing songs I've heard really!! I don't know if theres
That’s so funny I have never heard of this artist but I have def heard this song and oddly know it hahah how does that even work ! To our parents ! Songs that get played growing up and we pay no mind to them but we know them !!!
The greatest song ever about unrequited love (when you're the one with the broken heart). PERIOD. Below are links to other great ones on the subject - for days you just want to cry...
Chod, if you like the piano work in this video, his name is Bruce Hornsby. His band was Bruce Hornsby and the Range. If you wanna check out his band, check out a song called The Way It is or Mandolin Rain. You'll love it.
I love Bonnie Raitt. She has some great songs like Something To Talk About, Nick Of Time, Thing Called Love and my favorite Love Letter. However, please do George Michael's live cover of this song. It is amazing and a must see!
The best living female vocalist!!! Please react to her other recordings: Angel From Montgomery, Something To Talk About, Thing Called Love, Love Has No Pride, Nick of Time, Love Me Like A Man, Runaway, and I Ain't Gonna Let You Break My Heart Again (featuring Herbie Hancock).
Bonnie Raitt has written and performed many beautiful songs. Thing Called Love a nd Something to Talk About are more upbeat, and Love Has No Pride is another heart breaker.
Yes we were so blessed to have the music and the SIMPLICITY of that time.... Although we were dealing with nuclear weapons (monthly drills of hiding under our desks because I lived 10 miles away from the largest power station in North America), so an argument between mom and dad was not as marriage destructive as now.... Hahahaha
My favorite side of Bonnie is when she gets down on a funky beat and rips on the slide guitar, like on “Slow Ride”. The woman is legendary - I can’t think of one song of hers I don’t like.
@@brewswillis9783 Yeah, that one has that kind of funky beat she loves to groove with. She sure had a slough of great duets. Saw her perform twice and once was starstruck when our paths converged at a deli counter ordering lunch.
Love her version of Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home". you don't see it in this Chod but she is a phenomenal slide guitar player as well. have seen her with Eric Clapton and Jeff Healy and held no back seat to either of them carrying her axe.
Bonnie Raitt is not only a talented singer she is an amazing side guitar player considered one of the best check out her songs thing called love nick of time and something to talk about or her early work runaway
The great Bruce Hornsby on piano.
And, according to Wiki, the great Benmont Tench on Hammond. I did not know this until just now! Thank you, Chod!
Maybe look up some Bruce Hornsby & the Range tunes? Also - "Angel from Montgomery" is a signature Bonnie Raitt tune - written by the late, great John Prine.
I've seen her perform this live with her on piano.
Ahhhhhh, for an alto, this is one of the BEST songs to sing EVER! Bonnie did it so beautifully. She recorded it in one take. And you gotta love that gorgeous piano, played unmistakenly by Bruce Hornsby.
I love Bruce’s piano plying.
Great review! Well said!
This is one of the BEST songs, period.
Bonnie is a national treasure.
The most beautifully sad, adult, song of unrequited love ever written, in my opinion. So much soul
Can't argue with you .. Beautifully sad is exactly what it is .. And I can't think of any other songs that say it better .. Bonnie does it absolutely perfectly.
Agreed. It always brings a tear to my eye and gets me all choked up. Soooo pure beautiful and sad.
One of the most well written, well performed songs ever.
To understand this song you need to have lived through a bittersweet relationship of unrequited love. That means you have to be of a certain age. Yet it's difficult for people to move past their recency bias'. When viewed objectively for interpretation and the production on the record, no other record, which would be a cover, comes near this version. This is a woman of experience that has been through something, and it shows. This version is the benchmark, the heavyweight champion. All other versions are just contenders.
Agree totally with your opinion on this...covers of this do not compare to Bonnie’s performance.
A most wonderful assessment.
The absolute truth!! Bonnie owns it…and so does Bruce!
Best line ever "I'll close my eyes then I won't see the love you don't feel when you're holding me"
Agreed. Heartbreakingly beautiful.
Saddest line ever .. And Bonnie nails the delivery .. Makes me choke up every time .. Wayne
Something magical was captured during this recording session. The raw emotion is palpable. One of the best ever.
I wish I could thank my best friend for introducing me to Bonnie's music before he passed in the late 70s. I have danced, laughed, and cried a million tears to her music.
We used to have songs about love, but now songs are about hooking up.
One of the most elegantly sung songs ever.
Wilburn: absolutely wonderful you show a large screen of Bonnie Raitt's wonderful performance it adds so much to our enjoyment of this exceptional talent, singer, song-writer guitarist. Thank you! Really like the piano accompiament also.
This is as near perfect of a song and expression of the depth of what love can do, as I can tell, at this stage of my life. A classic gem of a song!
Hornsby and Raitt together on this makes an incrediable pair up to create the emotional impact that delivers the message of the lyrics. So beautiful and powerful.

Love! Love! Love! Bonnie Raitt. 🎵🎼🎶
Voice of an angel.... Gets me every time.
You know your stuff, sir. Bonnie has so much soul. The little swells of the organ break the listeners' hearts in the best possible way.
She’s a great slide and blues guitarist as well. “ Nick of Time” is another good one. There’s lots of live video of her jamming with many blues guitar icons.

This is how you make heartbreak beautiful. Bonnie is an incredible guitarist and a soulful vocalist.
This song brings back bittersweet memories. It reminds all of us of the complexities of love. The highest highs and the lowest of lows. This song really touches my soul......
Always heard this song on a car radio and thought it was ok. Years later heard it through headphones and OMG what a voice. What control. What emotion
I was born in the 50's, grew up in the 60's, married in 1978. Grew up listening to the greatest music, period.
Beautiful song , Bonnie's vocals and Bruce Hornsby playing the Piano.
Bonnie Raitt like "rate", beautiful!!!
Her dad John Raitt was a movie star back in the 50's and 60' mainly in musicals and was a star on the broadway circuit mainly in the musical theatre
Co-writer Mike Reid received his B.A. in Music from Penn State where he was an All-American defensive tackle and later a first round draft pick for the Cincinnati Bengals where he was an All-Pro defensive lineman.

She's a blues girl at her core. She plays a decent slide guitar. Her catalog is absolutely worth exploring. Class act! Love Bonnie!
She was a special guest at a Mark Knopfler concert in New York a few years ago
ruclips.net/video/igOovYWZQIs/видео.html
I hope she knows how much she means to so many people.
Just love Bonnie.
The greatest female singer on the planet.
Nice reaction Great song just so sad and emotionally haunting, Bruce Hornsby played the piano on this song- the Way that it is .
Bonnie is an amaziing musician; she plays killer slide guitar too. Her father, John Raitt, was a famous musician also.
This song just reaches in your chest and pulls your heart out. I could never perform this song because I would be crying the whole time.
Old guy here - first heard Bonnie in 1972 and have loved her ever since. Have to admit though - lost track of her sometime during the late 80's. This is one of my all time favorite songs.

This is a great old cut of hers. You need to hear Teddy Swims ..... To hear this man sing this song is such an honour to her.
Ray Charles, Bonnie Raitt.
From Ray's last album, Genius loves company.
Do I ever cross your mind.
Wonderful.
Hi Chod, growing up in the 60s and 70s we had a lot of help from Motown and Atlantic Artists with their Love Songs, that could convey what we wanted to say, it was Win Win .
I totally agree with you about today's talent.
That was the great Bruce Hornsby check out the Way It Is
Hell of a guitarist too
Bonnie Raitt, pronounced Rate, a great musician. guitarist. and singer. Her father was an amazing singer, mostly on Broadway. Her style is infused with the blue and she personally dug up old black bluesmen to tour with her so they can get paid.
Besides this song I love Love Has No Pride, Angel from Montgomery, and Runaway, a cover of an old doo wop song by Del Shannon.
You make her sound like a grave robber. 😉
Bonnie is a blues rocker at heart.Check out Thing Called Love
Others have covered this song, but Bonnie Raitt's heart-wrenching rendition is my favorite. Best song re unrequited love IMHO. Shout out to Bruce Hornsby on the piano!
No one could come close to topping this version
her name is pronounced 'rate'. great reaction
"Nick of Time" another great one from her
Her father John Raitt was big singer in 1940s and 50s musicals, and. Broadway.
This song was co written by the Cincinnati Bengals first round draft pick in 1970. He was a defensive lineman
Such a heartbreaking beautiful song. I will never forget the first time that I heard this , I sobbed. What an amazing combination of Bonnie Raitt's ethereal voice, Bruce Hornsby on piano and Don Was' production. Just wonderful 👏

Radiohead - Creep - ruclips.net/video/XFkzRNyygfk/видео.html
First two lines of this song gives me the chills every damn time. One of my all time favorites.
Let's give 'em sonething to talk about-BONNIE RAIT
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It is pronounced "Rate". Her father was Broadway star John Raitt. But Bonnie Raitt quit college and made it out of Cambridge, MA.
Chod, if you like the piano work in this video, his name is Bruce Hornsby. His band was Bruce Hornsby and the Range. If you wanna check out his band, check out a song called The Way It is or Mandolin Rain. You'll love it.
I love Bonnie Raitt. She has some great songs like Something To Talk About, Nick Of Time, Thing Called Love and my favorite Love Letter. However, please do George Michael's live cover of this song. It is amazing and a must see!
You can listen to this song just once and it will stick in your mind forever.
It's a great song.
"Storm Warning"
Love it!
Yeah, she’s the master of lost-at-love songs, probably because they reflect a reality in her own life.
I'm so glad you got around to this request 👍 and I'm hoping you'll follow up with "Give It Up" 🤞 ❣
LOVE Bonnie Raitt, a lot of great music. Saw her live in 1991, she's still amazing.
Not necessarily for reaction, but you really need to hear Bonnie singing "Give it Up", "You Gotta Know How", and "Love Me Like a Man".
The best living female vocalist!!! Please react to her other recordings: Angel From Montgomery, Something To Talk About, Thing Called Love, Love Has No Pride, Nick of Time, Love Me Like A Man, Runaway, and I Ain't Gonna Let You Break My Heart Again (featuring Herbie Hancock).
Quality song.
Oh, Bonnie I love you.....
I really like your thoughts on music and relationships back then compared to today. So true but there's still hope
Chod, you have to hear her cover of "Love Has No Pride." It's emotional and her vocal is stellar. I would pick the audio version.
YES. 👏
@@Kim-hc5si Also, her cover of John Prine's "Angel From Montgomery" is stellar!
@@MissAstorDancer It is! I could listen to her sing tax code. ❤️
@@Kim-hc5si LOL! I could, as well! Have only 4 of her albums (this being one of them), but have loved her since we were younguns!
Bruce Hornsby “Mandolin Rain”, “The Way it is”
i've seen Bonnie in many different settings and she absolutely kills it in all of them. Love you Bonnie Raitt!
Have a listen to Bonnie's version of "Runaway" live, your ears will thank you
Bonnie Raitt has written and performed many beautiful songs. Thing Called Love a nd Something to Talk About are more upbeat, and Love Has No Pride is another heart breaker.
Omg I suddenly know it!😂
Bonnie Raitt...is the Equalizer!!!!!....her a Ry Cooder kill the slide guitar..........
Yes we were so blessed to have the music and the SIMPLICITY of that time.... Although we were dealing with nuclear weapons (monthly drills of hiding under our desks because I lived 10 miles away from the largest power station in North America), so an argument between mom and dad was not as marriage destructive as now.... Hahahaha
Her name rhymes with rate. One of her very best! Bonnie makes you feel her emotions!👍🏻🎹☮️🎹🎼😢
This was my go to song when my heart was broken. If you want a song of her's for contrast, try Let's Give Them Something to Talk About.
Some women take you on the best trips. Oh my. Bonnie Raitt's first album is a classic. More recently, Let's Give Them Something To Talk About
Bonnie Raitt 'Not The Only One'
My favorite side of Bonnie is when she gets down on a funky beat and rips on the slide guitar, like on “Slow Ride”. The woman is legendary - I can’t think of one song of hers I don’t like.
Her duet with Delbert McClinton Good Man Good Woman is awesome too.
@@brewswillis9783 Yeah, that one has that kind of funky beat she loves to groove with. She sure had a slough of great duets. Saw her perform twice and once was starstruck when our paths converged at a deli counter ordering lunch.
@@tcanfield That's awesome!
Bonnie "Rate"
Check out her cover of inxs Need You Tonight she's killer guitar player
Love her version of Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home". you don't see it in this Chod but she is a phenomenal slide guitar player as well.
have seen her with Eric Clapton and Jeff Healy and held no back seat to either of them carrying her axe.
You should hear her sing John Pine's song "Angle from Montgomery". I also love her song "Home". Also her name is pronounced RATE.
Bonnie Raitt is not only a talented singer she is an amazing side guitar player considered one of the best check out her songs thing called love nick of time and something to talk about or her early work runaway
I would have loved to hear Jeff Beck tackle this as an instrumental.
