This is the song I go to when my soul hurts a bit, TY
Me too
Thats perfect❤
I can't believe that this woman, with this voice, wasn't given the recognition she deserved. What a performance, what a great band, this is one of those finds, from you tube!
"Hail Joan Osborne"
she sells out wherever she goes bro , talent knows talent
@@mercenary1881 The fact that the Funk Brothers are her backup band is a hint. Agreed that talent knows talent. The Funk Brothers, for those who don't know, were the Motown equivalent to the Wrecking Crew, and played on all the big Motown hits of the time.
Brings tears what would we have done without tamla motown awesome
@@ThePadders1 Motown was big in the UK late 60's early 70's, still draws a crowd to this day, probably because itslike the old saying " ya didn't realise what ya had till it gone"
Couldn't agree more 👏
My brother in law, Allan Slutsky, did the arrangement of the song, produced the movie itself, and is the man conducting the band behind Joan. Greatest version of any Motown song I have ever heard. Just saw Joan the other night in Buffalo. She still has it. but she'll never top this performance.
Outstanding .... Love it . Many thanks to your brother in law.❤
I bought the cd Alan.producred.. Joan was recently in London (June 2024)but I didn't get to see her unfortunately
.
I can't believe there is only one member of the incredible Funk Brothers still with us.
I was listening to this tonight. Absolutely incredible.❤
Well, he did an outstanding job!
I also missed Joan in London. But have a cd of Alan's recording. Have posted 4 yrs ago and said this was my all time recording.Nothing's changed except to see the sad passing of nearly all the Funk Brothers. A fantastic performance by all concerned. Absolutely amazing.
I have too say he did a great job I love this version
All i can say with my Jaw dropped having seen and having heard this song is " WOW "
Still listening to Joan in 2022.. The best version of this masterpiece ❤️
You have to remember Jimmy Ruffin heard this in his head, Joan heard it on the juke box.
This isn't a cover, it's an homage and a bow of respect
Same here!!! 2022 and still loving Joan!
She can’t even get the timing right! Imposter
@@tomfrench8191 well the only opinion that really matters is that of the Funk Brothers. They could have had any singer they wanted, they chose Joan.
They recorded 5 songs with her, took her on tour so they obviously disagree with your assessment. I think you're on an island here
Wow.. how disrespectful to a real vocalist… she sounds like something on the old Lawrence Welk show
Best version of this song ever done.
❤❤❤❤❤ amen !!!!
Jimmy Ruffin was a great artist and this song was his signature, this version is awesome, wow what a voice!!!
Still listening in 2023 and still loving it. "Great version of this masterpiece". 👌
This never, never gets old. What a set of pipes she has.
❤❤❤❤❤
I'm 70 and a new fan of Joan Osborn..she took What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted to a new level of fine to me.
Have been a fan of Joan Osborne for a long time. This is one of my favourites ruclips.net/video/ZRy53fb_7Sc/видео.html
I'm 71 and have been a fan of Joan's for several years. Love her, her soul, and her voice! Oh, I love her look, too.
I turned 70 in May. I don't see much hope for our world right now.
@Victor T The darkest hour is just before dawn. I'm hopeful that through all this upset between a world pandemic, political and social upheaval, somehow what will emerge will be a better, kinder and more environmentally aware world. Maybe I'm foolish to hope but what else is there.
@@abjectt5440 I agree with you. At our age we have seen, lived and love a lot too. I gave up on love 22 years ago. I hope your happy.
Joan Osborne and the Funk Brothers NAILED this song. AWESOME
EXCUSE ME?! HER VOICE!!! WOW!!!
When a song puts a lump in your throat and tears in your eyes, there's no need for words.
Well said
Yes!😊
Yes
Well said.
Same
Whenever my eyes need watering, I play this video.
Me too
Wow- just wow. Teared up listening to this song.
1967. A girlfriend broke up with me and I drove away with Jimmy Ruffin singing that song!
She just knocks this out of the park.
Just one of the great vocal performances. Her conviction, her heart, her emotion is just beyond ..... beyond anything.
Everyone on stage with her would rate this as the best night they've ever had professionally
Here we are in July 2022…where have you been all my life??
Just a great singer
You sure are right Boris! Joan is my favorite Irish girl singer and eye love her performance and heartfelt emotions of this song! Bravo Joan!
She didn’t knock it out of the park, she put it in orbit!
The Funk Brothers were super accompanying many Motown singers and groups. I miss all these from my youth.
Saw this video a long time ago, but I never get tired of it.
Somehow Joan simultaneously channelled Jimmy Ruffin and Janis Joplin for an awesome interpretation of this classic tear jerker. When I first heard this as kid in the 1960’s I thought it was about losing your girlfriend. But now as 60-some year old married man of 35 years I realize it is about loosing the love of your life; a loss tinged by anger. Thank God she is still with me.
Her wants to know where she goes because of being lonely.
Some folks can take a cover to a level that most of us who grew up with the original can appreciate...and SHE just did!
yes~~well said
Amen
Having the greatest hit machine ever adding the music didn’t hurt either. The Funk Brothers played on the original hit. Diminished by age and losses, they still had it.
YES SHE DID!!! The girl can blow!!!
This isn't a cover, the original artists are playing the song, just someone else who sings it. Don't get me wrong, she does an absolutely amazing job of it, but the Funk Brothers are the ones that allow her to sound this good..
I don't know how many times I've watched this video but it just keeps getting better and better. I wish I would have been there.
I can't believe I'm 71 and never heard of her. Phenomenal singer on another level. Jimmy Ruffin is smiling ear to ear somewhere. One of the best musical arrangements in history, to me.
Ditto
Personally I prefer jimmy but she’s great too
me too, just heard her for the 1st time! Im 68
search for her song "What if God was One of Us".
Love ya
One of the greatest performances that I have ever seen. Joan Osborne is great but the whole ensemble with the Funk Brothers and the background singers (I wish I knew who they were) were tremendous. That being said Joan Osborne is a special talent. I wish that she received the accolades that she she deserved. Thank you for making this available on You Tube
Absolutely!
If you can find it there is a movie called In the shadow of motown great music and the sound track of the times
Standing In The Shadows of Motown@@andrewball3828
When I saw this HBO special about the funk brothers, I wish she sang every song she is freaking unbelievable I love the sound of her voice
@@andrewball3828Before the documentary there was a book by the same title and it was all about James Jamerson and included all of his bass lines and 2 cds of great bassists playing the tracks. It was a huge part of my bass training as a professional.
Perfection, Jimmy Ruffin would be proud.
Fantastic cover!!!
The film 'Standing in the Shadows of Motown' should be in National Archives of American History. It's soo much more than just a musical film...it takes us to the heart of American audio ...the experience a whole world wanted !!
This is the highlight of the film, Joan does great but she is outdone by the maestros known as the Funk Brothers. The crescendo is a thing of rare beauty.
I don’t know about anyone else I was in High School . Listen to it now brings me back living in to Harlem in the 60s
I cannot get enough of this video. It's perfect in every way. I'm obsessed with it. Tell me! Tell me! Tell me!
OHHHHHHHHHH.......
@@catmansma lzkaÀq
It's a perfect song and sung so, so well. Can't get enough either! I feel ya Joan!!
Perfect for me. The emotion is so raw.
My husband passed to soon
Can't get enough either! . Walking these shadows looking for light....Tell me!
I should be able to give this another thumbs up every time I come back for a view.
Sensational--a classic !
Myself. Tell me
I'm rock in with you Joan in 2021.
Agree
Likewise
Keep coming back to this fantastic collection of world class musicians- who are the 800 martians who turned thumbs down?
Everytime I hear her voice I always ask myself "why isn't Joan Osborne a superstar?" One of the most powerful and versatile voices you will ever hear and she has never really broken loose. That's ok, those who do know how great she is will just keep listening.
I agree 1000%. She is amazing. These singers today can’t touch her. It always seems the really raw talented ones never make it super big. I guess she wasn’t willing to sell her soul to the devil🤷♀️.
Probably not a Superstar because of bad tone choices
It’s the songs…you gotta’ have great songs….hits.
@@robynwells4609 Right on. That could be said about Jennifer Warnes.
If the last minute and a half of that song doesn't give you chills, the good kind, then you need to open up more!
Don't I wish THIS LADY could have been in our group years ago... what a time it would have been. Love this girl and her raspy type voice ... Go girl!!.. (Jimmy Ruffin would have been proud of her doing this number)!
One of the most technically precise singers to ever take the stage. Fantastic breath support, pitch control, and impeccable timing.
Oh this girl got soul.
Very hard song to sing.
you need to watch Standing in the Shadows of Motown documentary
Robert saw that and all i can say it was great
Joan sings rock, soul and folk with equal skill and artistry (and no auto tune)!
I've never heard a better version of this song than this one 💔
Me neither.
1st time for me, GOD where have I been not to have heard this Brilliant cover of one of the greatest SOUL songs ever written, BRILLIANT. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND'S.✌️✌️✌️😎😎😎🏴🏴🏴🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Joan Osborne killd’it
This is a grand slam all around, but her voice is amazing on this. Show stealer.
I like it too.
That was a night all the stars fell into place, outstanding. Can't get enough.
16 years has past, I will fall asleep with this beautiful rendition of this song.
Absolutely perfect rendition of this song... So much talent on this stage.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
I cry every time I watch this.
She honored this Motown classic...Thanks Joan!1
Out of the park, great!
This woman owns this song ...
Beautiful !
I was 16 when the original was playing on the radio. I bought the record and played it so much that i drove my dad nuts. I saw this Joan Osborn version on tv last night. A cable station ran the Funk Brothers documentary from 2002. Those guys were amazing. So many hits made great by their sound. With all due respect to them, Joan Osborn's singing put a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes.
Sorry to go on so long
You and 20 million other people including me.
Joan knocks this song outta the ballpark! She's got such a awesome God given talent! I come back and watch this video all of the time!
She doesn’t just knock this out of the park, she puts it into orbit.
An amazing performance.
Love it.
I conquer
Wow This girl nailed it.
Great job.
Unbelievable, This young lady not only did justice to this song but to me..Made it even better with her version..along with the band being tight and the perfect back up singers put it all
Tight..old school..
I watched the Shadow of Motown show on TV. I grew up with all of the Motown music and knew the Ruffin version of this song. I listened to it again today after hearing Joan’s version. The Ruffin version was a good song, but Joan’s voice and style backed up by the Funk Brothers blew me away. Her voice and the arrangement made me weep. It brings up all of those sweet memories of my youth. Like Joan’s story of listening to the song daily after work in a diner, I have had to listen to Joan sing it nearly every day since I saw that special. Thank you Joan.
When I heard her sing this at the end of the documentary I cried, feeling so moved by her voice and emotion. What a beautiful tribute to that era.
I listen to this regularly. Sometimes everything just clicks. This was one of those times. Great song, great lead singer, sensational back-up and a magnificent, well conducted band. Musical magic.
Fell in love with that voice. A new fan. Not easily impressed at 65 years old. I'm impressed.
You've no taste or concept of music
66 and I'm impressed also!!!
Chuck Lawson agree. I'm 62
I did not think this song could be covered like this. I think maybe better than Jimmy did it, and that's a hell of a compliment.
@@dsofnj5933 Talking to yourself is one thing. Puting it on youtube comments is just insane. Don't worry though. As you broaden your musical interests past "Twinkle Twinkle Litte Star" and "Happy Birthday, you will learn what good music sounds like
Can we all just appreciate all the musicians here on this stage? You don't see modern day artists having real people playing instruments like this anymore.
As a professional musician, I could kiss the bass player and the vibraphone player (not to mention all the others, including background vocalists). They give so much to the special sound. And the one person not on stage, who should be, is the arranger. Holy crap, what a killer arrangement. The "dynamics" - loud and soft parts - add a lot of drama. If you're not a musician, you may miss this, but there's an incredible modulation :47 - :49 that would make Bach smile. I'm in awe of everything about this performance - it's one for the ages!
@@2011littleguy thanks for the good info
That's Because It's the Funk Brothers........
They just stick their bums in the air and we're all supposed to think it's cool.
if you can’t find a modern artist with live musicians, you’re looking in the wrong place
i'm not sure if joan or any of the musicians on stage realized the moment of musical magic they had just created. everyone on stage was spot on, making the emotions of joan , shine through. music has the power to move people and this powerful rendition of a classic, certainly rose to the occassion. BRAVO
+up2my you said it best.
+tommy2chips Agreed. Every school child (& every adult) should be shown Standing in the Shadows of Motown to understand the majesty and wonder of the music made by our great American artists. If this stuff doesn't move you go pick out a burial plot 'cause you have passed away.
Agreed this is a performance under rated by all but folk like us that were there way back when Jimmy Ruffin did this song in 65. This lady is pretty, soulful and the band, my gosh! I cannot say enough they are absolutely magnificent!! This is a musical work of art, truly a tribute yet unrealized to the man that did this song to begin with!!
She might have. It's been said that after the song, the energy, etc., she's said to have asked "What the hell just happened?"
up2my, ya nailed it. I absolutely LOVE this song. Tell Me, Tell Me, Tell Me... It's always about the Love!
Stunning cover. Joan is phenomenal.
Best version ever
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
❤❤❤❤❤
This version of this song is the benchmark of cover songs. Joan has a voice for the ages .
Hi Tommie
Funk Brothers,the musicians of motown ,
absolutely awesome .
Omg the drummers……😍 The backing vocals…. the band….🎶
The Everything >w
It's the Funk Brothers.
Uriel Jones and Richard "Pistol" Allen on drums.
Jack Ashford (sole survivor today of the Funk Brothers) on percussion; Bob Babbit on bass; Johnny Griffith and Joe Hunter on piano; Joe Messina, Eddie Willis on guitars.
2023 thos' pipes!💯💥
Normally I'm not big on covers of great songs BUT this is a smoking version of the Jimmy Ruffin classic ! She really knocks it out of the park. Fantastic !!!
One of the best female singers to ever come out of Kentucky.
she does!
This is Joan Osborne on fire. She is blistering. Amazing.
Totally awesome.
She totally kills this song!
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
It was supposed to be in the movie , 'The Bodyguard' , but they chose ' i will always love you ' instead
❤❤❤❤❤
A group that has brought so much joy. Thank you Funk Brothers !
This band played on 100s of Motown hits as the house band, people say that they didn't get the recognition they deserved, yes they did, every time a Motown record is played we tap our feet, get up and dance and sing along, millions of us recognize the bass intro by the late James Jamerson on the Temptations " my girl " ( Paul McCartney's hero) thank you for precious memories and thank you Joan, good work
Nicely put . . .
Great song taken to a new level! I grew up in Detroit with Motown. This performance did Motown PROUD! Detroit yes!!!!
When everything is right. The band, the backup singers, who are like angels, this immensely gifted singer and the right song.
For me, this is the best ever.
Funk Brothers really make this! Joan -.Awesome
RIP to the 12 of the 13 Funk Brothers who have passed. We’ll not see their like again.
As I said to Joan Osborne when I interviewed her a few years ago for USA Today, this is an absolutely perfect performance -- a Nadia Comaneci 10. Not one flaw in her or the band's performance.
Absolute truth. She is an amazing talent. Made nose rings the thing in her day too....
Bob Doerschuk Right on brother!
@@MaynardGKrebs-gv4vy TRUE, TRUE and TRUE...
So true, such a sublime performance.
Make that a Simone Biles 10+!
Imagine the band members thoughts while backing Joan's perfect, sensuous bluesy vocals and utterly INCREDIBLE backing vocals
I always appreciate when someone just sings the song, and doesn’t over sing it. It’s good enough the way it is, just put your voice on it. Joan did that here.
Words can't touch this one !!
Joan Osborne was BORN to sing this song! Add The Funk Brothers, and you’ll weave PURE MAGIC on stage!
this is a once in a lifetime recording...lightning in a bottle from the Funk Brothers last gigs....some of the men on the stage, these great musicians, are no longer with us ...Remember the Funk Brothers!
Those with thumbs down yall dont know music
I have no more superlatives. I am also hooked on this treasured performance
The song, the arrangement, the musicians, the back-up singers and, especially, Joan's magnificent voice, EVERYTHING in this video IS PERFECT. Making this even more amazing, is that this song is so very hard to sing.
I made almost the same comment myself plus Joan's unique vocal tone .. magnificent !!
All of your comments is how feel. What joy, what a wonderful feeling
Have always thought this was the most beautiful cover..she nails it!
Found this early on in lockdown. Return to it all the time and think it's my all time favourite. As well as Joan's phenomenal performance, the Funk Brothers are equally phenomenal. Not sure how it took me so long to find this. Absolutely brilliant!
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
🥰 Joan Joan JOAN! You truly SANG homage to J-Ruffin on this flawlessly. All hail to the legendary Funk Brothers Band !... ❤️ impeccable sound, speechless! *I salute you gentlemen!
Joan & Funk Brothers FRIGIN Incredible
I never tire of this cover. My favorite rendition.
I watched this with my dad who passed a year ago today. so many memories of him and motown!! 😇😇😇
This is on a totally different level!!! Those vocals!!! 👏👏👏 Bravo!!!
I saw this on HBO ❤ I'm so grateful I had a chance to learn about Motown and how they treated the Unsung Musicians.
I just get lost when I listen to this. It takes me to another world. The bass part is so hypnotic. He seldom plays the root of the chord. I'm a musician and listen for those things. I love this version and the original version. This is interesting because of new ending. This is what makes music so great - the vocalists, song. arrangement, musicians, mixing, etc.
Never forget Jimmy Ruffins version all those years ago....first time I have heard this by Joan Osborne...nothing wrong with this at all....love it ...she has a new fan !
This is a masterpiece. What a magnificant performance.
No one absolutely no one has ever sang this song this good and looks so beautiful at the same time what an amazing voice
I am no fan of cover songs, but damn, damn. this women did the song proud. amazing. passionate. soulful. right from the heart and slam into your soul. I have tears in my eyes every time I see and listen to this, and anyone who knows about music will understand what I am expressing to you.
+Faeden well expressed. couldn't agree more. This was feeling & soul
+Faeden Right beside you, Faeden. Puts a lump in my throat every damn time.
Everyone on that stage knows their musical potatoes through and through; and their pleasure in queueing up that number again is clear. As much as I enjoyed Jimmy Ruffin's original cover, Joan absolutely killed it. Her version is, for me, the ace and deuce of the "Brokenhearted" canon.
+Faeden some songs are just beautiful words and melody but it's the artist , that puts the whipped cream and cherry on top. :-) joan seems to bare her soul from the 3 minute mark on and the result is pure raw emotion. bravo
One shouldn't hate a beautiful voice God gave her a gift.very talented, with that tear in her voice.awsome arrangements.to me she's a exciting to hear.dont be a hater.unless your better, doubt it.god bless joan.keep it going.one monkey don't stop the show.Willie,love ya!!!!!!!
That's how I feel about the original . Jimmy Ruffin brings tears to my eyes !
This may be the finest performance of any kind that I have seen here on YT........Real Soul !
The standard by which all Motown covers are measured. Chills very time. Long live the broken hearted!
Greatest song on youtube.
❤❤❤❤❤
I'm the type of person who just has to sing along to any song... when it comes to this performance I just sit and stare in awe
Very well said.
Joan is awesome. Funk Brothers make this way awesome.
She honors this classic. Well done, Joan.
I was watching Standing in the Shadows of Motown when I first this amazing cover of "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted." This song gets me every time. Well done , Joan!!
Karen Wiliiamson
"Standing in the Shadows of Motown" Not only one of the greatest bios produced. very Long over due. Everyone
should see it at least once. and pass it on.
I remember watching this with my Dad on Christmas and at the end of this performance we both just simply said, WOW. And we are both Motown guys.
Funk Brothers "THE" Motown sound magicians their sound is fantastic. Ms. Osborne has the perfect raspy voice that fits this sond perfectly!
380 people don't know music! I was raised on r&b, then Motown! Listen to the Funk Brothers and Joan is so soulful!
Soulful is the word.
Maybe 78 people don’t have your music taste.
This Lady deserves the highest award for this version
❤❤❤❤❤
Joan, If you're reading this, this is one of my favorite songs of all time and when I first saw the documentary I, (I'm ashamed to say), didn't know who you were at that time, but as I started to say, it's (the song) is a tough cover. I vividly remember saying, "Who the F€*# is this woman, she can SANG, not sing, SANG" which is the southern gospel definition of singers in church who are so good, it leaves you speechless. Well Joan, you left me speechless. You did yourself and Jimmy Ruffin proud. Bravo to you! Great job!
She came down from Heaven to perform this. I’m speechless. This cover is unbelievable!!!
What a performance … She was born to sing this song
Girl got soul and beats! And a lot of class. The musicians are the best you can find.
Wow!! Never heard this version of WBOBH better than the first. I will have to look up Joan as she has a great voice.
