    Bonnie's version all day every day over anyone else. Plus her arrangement and use of instruments just kills all the others.

      Her use of instruments? She is a great singer without a doubt, but last I looked it was the brilliant Bruce Hornsby at the piano and not Bonnie Raitt.

      @@musashimiyamoto586 I never said her playing of instruments, I said her use of the them. It's how a conductor uses the instruments in the orchestra that makes for different interpretations. But of course you've never played and instrument, been in a studio, or arranged a piece of music so you'll never understand, will you?

    If ever there was a TRUE voice of an angel, this is it. Bonnie reaches inside me and wrings the tears out of my heart. It is almost too much to take, but it is also cathartic. This is a song in a category all by itself. Musical perfection.

I had never heard THIS live version until right now. and when Bonnie hit that note at the 5:10 mark, I damn near teared up. Now I gotta go punch a wall or kick a tire. Add the fact that you have the great Bruce Hornsby playing the piano, as he did on the original. Goodgoobilleegoo!!!!

Her live concerts are better than her recordings. We are talking EMOTION! Saw Bonnie with Lyle Lovett at the Rhyman in 2002. Great concert.
