Hard to tell if you realize this already or not, so I'll just say -- Bonnie was the first to record this song, in 1991. It became one of her most successful singles, reaching the top-20 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the top-10 on the Adult Contemporary chart. (BTW, the studio version is a slightly faster tempo.) Bonnie is 74 and still touring (I'm going to see her in October!). Last year, she was nominated for four Grammy Awards, and won three: Song of the Year (a songwriting award) and Best American Roots song for "Just Like That" (won); and Best Americana performance for "Made Up My Mind." She won these Grammys 33 years after she took home FOUR Grammys in 1990 (Album of the Year, Best Female Rock Vocal performance, and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance all for "Nick of Time"; and Best Traditional Blues Recording -- with John Lee Hooker, for "I'm In The Mood"). She is also recognized as one of the best slide guitar players alive, and has a strong blues flavor in much of her music. She can really rock! Bonnie is a national treasure, indeed. (Please react to Just Like That. It will move you.)
This is Bonnie's song. Teddy Swims does an excellent cover. But Bonnie's is the original. In all ways, she's an original. She's a fantastic singer and guitarist. Check out anything by her. You won't be disappointed.
Yall remember last year when she won the grammy over Taylor and Beyonce and everyone was like "Wtf is this" and there was an article calling her an UNKNOWN Blues singer? I about died laughing. I love Bey and Taytay, but UNKOWN? 🤣
This is HER song. She's an incredible artist. She was voted best bottle blues guitar...I can't remember the year. She played with Stevie Ray Vaughn many times. You should check out some of her other things. Thank you!
@@sparklebaby22 because he didn’t react to the song the way YOU wanted him to?? He was obviously excited knowing he’s heard the song before and clearly stated he didn’t know where it originated from… you older generation of folks are some closed minded people.
An American treasure. And one of the most respected artists around. There is no one like Bonnie Raitt. Check out "Let's give them something to talk about".
Random fact, this is one of the songs that Roy Delgado, chief engineer at Klipsch, uses when designing/voicing their heritage and professional speakers.
The absolute QUEEN of the slide guitar. Eric Clapton watched her play slide with total awe and respect in his eyes. Give "Let's Give 'em Something to Talk about" a listen. Then anything else by her. No disappointment.
You’ll love her other biggest hit “Let’s give them something to talk about”, but you literally can’t go wrong with anything she’s done. This song doesn’t show what an amazing guitarist she is either!
"In August 2000, Mojo magazine voted "I Can't Make You Love Me" the eighth best track on its The 100 Greatest Songs of All Time list.The song was ranked at number 339 on the Rolling Stone magazine's 2004 list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, later placing at number 372 on the 2021 ranking.On November 27, 2016, the Grammy Hall of Fame announced its induction, along with that of another 24 songs." This is one of Bonnie's most requested songs.Bruce played piano on the recorded version back in 1991.
This is why it is important to listen to music from previous decades because the music was way better back then. This is her song. This has always been her song. I think you are in your 30’s like myself and I have loved this song as a kid. I love Prince and tank’s cover which are both amazing. Teddy’s cover was great too but nothing like the original from the legend’s. My nine year old will hear songs and I play them and he is like you know this song. Uhh yeah. Gotta educate the youth. 60’s, 70’s, 80’s were the last greatest era of music. Gotta educate the youth
This is Bonnie's song.I think this song came from her divorce from her husband. That's what give this so much more authenticity than the cover versions. George Michael and Teddy Swims did excellent versions though. Her rendition is the REAL DEAL!
Ok, needed to correct some info below. Bonnie did make this song successful, but it was co=written by ex-NFL pro-bowl player Mike Reid with I think Allen Shamblin. Love Bonnie. Multi=talented. See Love Me LIke a Man for guitar work and blues. and Let's Give Em Something to Talk ABout for fun, great song. And of course her grammy winner in ehr 70s i mentioned below. Just Like That. She's amazing.
Don't sing over this beautiful woman. It's disrespectful. Teddy Swims version came much later after she showed him how. His rendition is pretty rough in comparison
I usually enjoy your reactions very much, and I've never seen you disrespectful to an artist until this one. It seems like you weren't even listening to her.
I wish I could have finished this but honestly you're behavior is some the most annoying I have seen on a reaction channel. Love Bonnie, I have been privileged to see her live several times. This song deserves to be listened to not constantly interrupted........
Oh and by the way she won Grammy's for this song and to be honest the song was made for a woman to sing not a man no offense I'm not trying but I don't like when they compare Teddy to Bonnie bonnie's very pure she doesn't need to belt it she could if she wanted to though that's the thing she chooses to sing the song as she feels it not trying to overshing it and I get why Teddy did that he wants to get recognition before he became hugely popular So no disrespect to his voice he's got a great voice I like when he sings his own music
Damn!! You are getting a lot of negativity in the comments. 😮 It’s as if people don’t realize they can stop watching it or thumbs down the video. 😅 I’m still giving you a 👍🏼 because you clearly appreciated her talent around the 6 minute mark.
The older generation and their entitlements. You would think they’d give props to the younger folks are open minded enough to give songs and artists a listen.
I know this is a reaction video, but, wow, the guy doing it is so annoying... and a little bit disrespectful to the subject material. Just my humble opinion.

Bonnie is an ICON!! She’s an incredible blues musician, and plays slide guitar like no other. Her father was a Broadway star
Bonnie is a national treasure. Fine guitarist and piano, songwriter and humanitarian. A absolute talent. Love her for 40 yrs. Stop singing...
Ahem, Bonnie just won the Grammy for Song of the Year. At age 73. Yes, she's still out there.
Yall remember last year when she won the grammy over Taylor and Beyonce and everyone was like "Wtf is this" and there was an article calling her an UNKNOWN Blues singer? I about died laughing. I love Bey and Taytay, but UNKOWN? 🤣
😂 💯 exactly! She has an album in the Library of Congress, that also earned her several Grammys.
They are young and ignorant she is a legend

@@NancyColis Shut up. Is that close minded enough for you?
@@justpassingthrough6550are you offended?
She sang at SRV'S funeral with Jackson Browne and Stevie Wonder. Just an FYI.
You're kinda weird you're your reaction she was making a statement she never even said anything about what he felt and you attacked her that's weird
There is Bonnie Raitt's original of this and then there is everyone else.
An American treasure. And one of the most respected artists around. There is no one like Bonnie Raitt. Check out "Let's give them something to talk about".

Bonnie can sing her ass off!! Love this song. Bruce at the piano even elevates this song even more. 2 elitists at their finest!
The absolute QUEEN of the slide guitar. Eric Clapton watched her play slide with total awe and respect in his eyes. Give "Let's Give 'em Something to Talk about" a listen. Then anything else by her. No disappointment.
She is phenomenal! This is HER song. Great reaction!
Her guitar skills are amazing, don’t cheat yourself out of experiencing them. 😊 I suggest a live performance
You’ll love her other biggest hit “Let’s give them something to talk about”, but you literally can’t go wrong with anything she’s done. This song doesn’t show what an amazing guitarist she is either!

bonnie won a grammy in 2022 for a song Just LIke That, Beat out beyonce, taylor, al the usuals. YOu need to listen to it. she wrote it and ssang it.
She's not the songwriter, but she was the original recording artist
Love Bonnie Raitt! Try "Love Me Like A Man" very very bluesy

Bonnie owns this but will say George Michael has a great cover.
Bonnie and Teddy’s versions are both beautiful, but Bonnie is a GOAT! Great guitar player and beautiful voice.
Bonnie is a great R & B singer
This is Bonnie's song.I think this song came from her divorce from her husband. That's what give this so much more authenticity than the cover versions. George Michael and Teddy Swims did excellent versions though. Her rendition is the REAL DEAL!
😂😂😂 OH yesssssss...love Bonnie!!! Hope you do more of her songs...remember her song A Thing Called Love? And then Love Letter?
I've been a dedicated fan of Bonnie for over 40 years. She's a treasure to be sure.
Bonnie's 'Give It Up' album is a 50 year favorite of mine that will stay in my rotation till I "shuffle off this mortal coil"👏
❤😂😮😅 fan indeed
She sang at SRV funeral
One of my most favorite songs ever! So beautiful!
Love Bonnie. George Michael does a great cover of this song
Yep, Teddy covered it but this is Bonnie’s song….both are great versions
Teddy does a fine cover but Bonnie’s voice was made for this song
I like how you acknowledge Bruce Hornsby as an equal legend, because he is.
Bon Iver's version is haunting. Might wanna check it out.
Ok, needed to correct some info below. Bonnie did make this song successful, but it was co=written by ex-NFL pro-bowl player Mike Reid with I think Allen Shamblin. Love Bonnie. Multi=talented. See Love Me LIke a Man for guitar work and blues. and Let's Give Em Something to Talk ABout for fun, great song. And of course her grammy winner in ehr 70s i mentioned below. Just Like That. She's amazing.
This live version is much slower than the original she performs.
I have only heard this, the original! ❤❤ Such a beautiful song!❤❤
Thanks AB!👏👏👏
Don't sing over this beautiful woman. It's disrespectful. Teddy Swims version came much later after she showed him how. His rendition is pretty rough in comparison
I agree. Had to stop listening 1/2 way through.
I had to stop listening. He was uuing it😢
Nick of Time & Something to Talk About are great! Check em out!
Prince did a cover for this
Many good remakes but Bonnie is the originator. Love me some Bonnie. Check out Nick Of Time by her.
Yes. Teddy Swims covered this song.
Since you love this you should check out let's give them something to talk about. It was a song on a Julie Robert's movie.
Try listening to her sing Angel from Montgomery
I usually enjoy your reactions very much, and I've never seen you disrespectful to an artist until this one. It seems like you weren't even listening to her.
Can you elaborate on how he was being disrespectful for the rest of us who disagree?
@@NancyColis Sang over her in Teddy Swims warble.
I wish I could have finished this but honestly you're behavior is some the most annoying I have seen on a reaction channel. Love Bonnie, I have been privileged to see her live several times. This song deserves to be listened to not constantly interrupted........
Nice version....but my fav is just her and a guitar ❤
Beautiful ❤️
Love this song !!! ♥♥

I really wish you would have watched her first because hers more soulful
Damn!! You are getting a lot of negativity in the comments. 😮

Please comment sparingly and Don't Sing.
Teddy covers lots of artists songs. He’s a good singer, but not a composer.
Hi! I’m 2nd. 🤣😂
First to say hi. 😂❤
Teddy Swims cover is amazing
Gotta listen to Jelly do this now
They just dont write music like this anymore and its sad
Stop talking and listen to the song
It’s a beautiful song
someone really voted for this?? Yuk
DUDE...shutup...
What has happened to freeee speech and expression??? Must be a liberal democrat who has their panties in a twirl....YIKES!
Please don’t sing!
don't sing
