This is one of those "don't cover it" songs because the original is " untouchable". But Susan touches us, our souls, our deep emotions as Bonnie intended.
Actually Bonnie's huge hit is also a 'cover' of Bon Iver's song. But undeniably Raitt made this song her own. Susan has such a fine clear and soulful voice!
@@rk41gator - I can't tell if you're just joking, but in case you aren't - No it's not. Bonnie Raitt is the original artist (released in 1991), and Bon Iver covered it.
@@ericallen3654 We are both wrong. Neither Iver nor Raitt wrote the song. "I Can't Make You Love Me" is a 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).
@@rk41gator- Raitt is the artist who originally performed it, but you're right that she's not the one who wrote it. The way she sang it on the record, you'd definitely think she did though lol.
No one else but this woman right here could sing this song and make it sound so fine. She's no Bonnie Raitt, but ol' Bonnie's no Susan Tedeschi, either. Good job. girl.
Susan is a diamond in a sea of bedrocks. Bonney will never be copied. The two of them are some of the greatest of all time. This song just does something to my soul. Thank you for sharing this song.
What a pity that there is only one amateur recording of this. At the same time, thanks to the person who picked it up so that at least we could find out about it this way.
I thought that I should uncover the mystery. The other Bonnie would be Bonnie Bramlett. She started out as an Ikeett. Black face and an Afro wig. Then she hooked up with Delaney. The group was Delaney& Bonnie and Friends. Some of the Friends mentioned above, JJ Cale, Leon Russell, Eric Clapton, George Harrison...
Bonnie..at 70+ years..just killed it at the Freihofer Saratoga Jazzfest with her set Sun. night, which included this song. Susan does this song justice, and IMHO she might consider staying away from Bonnie Raitt songs just because of the similarities in their voices-both of which are great. Look forward to seeing Susan with Derek et al in Saratoga next weekend!
I love that dress! Susan you make me teary eyed!!
If you take the time to listen to the lyrics, it's extremely emotional. The reciprocal nature of love is lost if someone can't give it back. powerful!
WOW! Just WOW!
Can't listen to this too much ❤

First heard this by Bonnie Raitt. Broke my heart.
The greatest of all time. The GOAT!
Susan’s voice is a thing of beauty !
Susan is beautiful in all ways. Wonderful performance.

I totally agree!
1:02 She sings this part "...dark." with a weak and soft voice...this touched my heart and gave me goosebumps
I know it is just beautiful....you feel the heartbreak in her voice.
Great song, great performance. Susan is terrific as always. Shout out to the piano player, too.
I can’t think of a better collaboration
Beautifully sung. Susan is such a wonderful artist.
Absolutely love this, hope I'm lucky to hear this one live at MSG in September, when I come across the pond to see TTB 🤞
I love Bonnie and Ms Trucks and their accomplice's;
This is the best version and recording of Susan singing this song that is currently on RUclips.....👏👏👏👏
Thank you so very much! ❤️
Wonderful job. Beautiful!!!
The pleasure is mine!
Susan...
You are the first person other than George Michael to cover this song and truly make me FEEL the lyrics.
You are a treasure.
She’s a very talented lady, teamed with her husband Derrick they are phenomenal! 👍
I love this song.. this version is tied with Prince for covers.. goosebumps! ❤
This is brilliant. Nice to hear someone singing it how it’s supposed to be sung and not over complicating it
She is my favorite singer, next to Bonnie. Got a new Bluetooth speaker for my bicycle and have been riding along listening to Susan's albums.
Wow! Susan never fails to give me goosebumps! Amazing talent!!
Beautiful 😍
Thank you Susan. My heart screams when I hear this song and for some reason your voice helps ease the load.😢
Beautiful!!
Beautiful
Thanks Maggie I saw them a few weeks after this and she didn’t do this! Fantastic ❤
always a different set list and that is another thing that makes this band so awesome. I love this song...so happy I was able to capture it!
Just wow! How great is she? Still Bonnie’s song.
Beautifully done ! ♥🎸
Susan shines ✨️
Such a talented voice ...so special
love her
Wow!
❤ beautiful Susan ❤ Swampette❤

One of THE better covers that I've heard of this classic song - Very underrated singer this lady is .
Susan has an amazing voice.
@@maggieriker7219 Just discovered her and plan on seeing her in concert wherever she is ❤️
She is anything but underrated.
@@blknbuf1 Run to the nearest show you can. You will be amazed by the musicianship across the board.
❤❤❤❤
Awesome job ❤
Susan is amazing.
Love it!
Thanks Maggie
Thank you!! This was so amazing at njpac!! Thank you for sharing
Words just don’t cut it. Susan is on another level.
I love her I envy Derek 😂
😂
We have all apologized to Derek for being in love with his wife.
@@mongoardath1 🤩
Saw Bonnie Raitt live at Armadillo.
Neither Susan nor Bonnie need to make us love them; in both cases, I believe it’s a done deal!
that's for sure!
❤
Bonnie's musical daughter...
I absolutely love Susan and her singing and this is a great version, but Bonnie Raites version is flawless.
She knows what a woman is and dresses like a woman.
Great cover, Susan is mixture Janis, Bonnie, and Bonnie. Who's the other Bonnie? She had a bunch of 'friends', JJ, Leon, Eric, George, on and on...

Only Susan can pull this off ❤
and Bonnie of course

We got to see Bonnie at the Rochester jazz fest 3 weeks ago and she performed this song, what a treat! Really opens up some old emotions!
This is as close as it gets to Ms Raitt's original. I just wish the audience would respect and shut the hell up.
😢
$20 Dollars in my pocket, this is fucking awesome!
Klasseweib ❤
Female version of Michael Bolton.
susan is the shit, yep
No you cant, your behavior made sure of it
Amazing 👍👍
