I'm A 42-year-old gay man and I find myself crying sometimes when I watch Janis Joplin because I get so overcome with emotion about how awesome she is

[@cman9373]

Janis Joplin kicked the doors open for a whole new generation of female vocalists... The one and only...

[@yelnek4548]

Very unique voice.

[@Blisteryn]

For men too. Many male rockstars are influenced by her voice and style.

[@danstanicki4636]

Well said. She was amazing.

[@macleadg]

Joni Mitchell. Lisa Fischer (from “Almost Famous”). Ella Fitzgerald. Sara Vaughn. Chaka Khan. Aretha Franklin. Whitney Houston. and many more candidates for “Female Friday”. Even Miley Cyrus (don’t laugh; she’s better than you think).

[@battistaleone8388]

Totally agree with you

[@eileencastillo6323]

Amber, you're a very empathic soul. Reading Janis like you do. The painful emotion she emits is real. Great reaction, guys.

[@JKsWatchables]

Seeing Amber get emotional listening to the song, brought a tear to my eye too

[@TexasPride62]

To be honest, I also cry when she sings "...cause we may not be here tomorrow".

[@sometimesboy]

Listening to recordings of Janis songs you can hear her rawness and intensity, but watching her perform like this makes you see just how hungry for love and just how generous in heart she was. In these live performances you can tell that she is really giving it all to you and she lets herself be unapologetically vulnerable. She pushes it out there without abandon, without fear of judgement. Lesser artists try to calibrate their performances and control the narrative. Janis just gives it to you, sometimes battered and raw, letting her heartache speak to yours.

[@barblibrarian]

Wow. You hit the nail on the head…. Great comment

[@samanthabatten8560]

I love this. Well said 😊

[@Scott_P869]

Sadly the alcohol and heroin use was a big part of raw emotional performance and cause of us losing her so soon.

[@dorothyesked1802]

Yes!

[@Will-qs3ql]

We all know what lead to her death but Janis even at her most intoxicated is more genuine and real than most of the shit today . I'd prefer a Joplin album than 5 minutes of American Idol.

[@MS-ro9dm]

Supposedly the line in American Pie, "there was a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away" is a Janis reference.

[@pattygault3848]

❤

[@ptrlxc]

Janis has influenced so many women artists long after her time. And don’t forget about the great band she has backing her up.

[@carolki1315]

i agree with amber...i mean you can feel janis' passion & soul in her singing and this like 50+ yrs later!! if that's not talent,i don't know what is.

[@melroz20102011]

She killed it on this one and she was the queen

[@cindybeck5643]

Aw, my girl Janis! Amber, I'm so glad you love Janis. I've loved her and her music since the 70's! One of my first favs ever!!

[@joaomagalhaes3579]

Simplesmente, janis joplins, lindo!lindo!

[@oldarpanet]

Nobody ever put more of themselves into a song than Janis did. My God! She poured her soul into every song she sang. I saw her live, with her second band, The Kozmic Blues Band when I was 12 yrs old! (almost 13) She was amazing!!! (of course)

[@suechristenberry1465]

This precious Janis so much emotion, raw, what you see is what you get, in your face, Love her, Guys the Actor Sidney Poitier died today, it would be awesome if you could do Lulu's song, To Sir with Love, it is about him, Amber I know your gonna Love it, Love Ya'll.

[@evacovault2880]

Always love when y'all do another Janis song!!! I love how much Amber loves Janis, and I'd be down for a Janis song on every #FemaleFriday!

[@TexasPride62]

You are talking the truth...

[@teerat8451]

Janis was born to sing and it's sad we all lost out on so many songs she never got the chance to sing. In her short time she definitely left a lasting legacy.

[@theodoregarman5322]

I miss her so much

[@frankszappaschin]

for me the best female artist of all time , so much soul.

[@pattyestrada6]

Amber, you have got to listen to “Maybe” (official audio version). Her rendition of this song is amazing, it really showcases her voice and you’ll love all the horns in the song.

[@lauriesuter8810]

Totally agree 👍 👏!!!

[@rickeyjay7164]

Yes! Agreed!

[@rickeyjay7164]

I’d just add the live performances of “Maybe” are interesting to watch, but the performances don’t come close to how great she sounds and how unusually tight the band is in the album/studio version.

[@geneticrex]

No question!!!

[@marleybob3157]

Also "Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)" - my personal favorite song from my personal favorite Janis album ("I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!")

[@davidbentley145]

Janis is a classic...Thanks for this guys....

[@EliWurth]

Amber, seeing your emotional reaction brought tears to my eyes. It's her vulnerability that gets me every time.

[@BillyColeII-dr6dk]

Janis' rendition of the Bee Gees' To Love Somebody is awesome....a live perfomance.

[@mitchellaj2302]

I do believe Janice was a woman of her times. She is that Woodstock sound.

[@j.h.3777]

I'm Janice, she's Janis. : )

[@cheffggirl]

Great song and beautiful reaction! Her song "Cry Baby" will tear you up inside. It's the best!

[@joankisloski6972]

Janice was classified as Blues Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Soul Blues. "Down on Me" is a good song.

[@robjones2408]

Janis singing "Little Girl Blue" will bring your heart. A fabulous vocalist who left far too early.

[@marinamartinez6886]

Behind that kick ass attitude and talent was a lot of hurt. Janis Joplin forever. 👍👍👍

[@marshalambert5643]

My favorite female artist. She was real, raw and a fierce soul.

[@gustavopanesso7297]

Love Janis. Thanks guys.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@terwya]

Amber I understand exactly how you feel. I'm 71 years old now but in the late 60's actually from 1967 to 1970, Janis was my favorite female artist. I would get goose bumps when I watched her perform and got the again with the performance. When she passed I was devastated. She is and will always be one of a kind.

[@jeremyward2027]

She poured her heart and soul into every note she sang! That's why you can feel it in every song she sung. Janis said one time the she makes love to a thousand people and goes home alone. She was talking about giving her all to her audience every single night!!!

[@debbiechang5781]

Janis always brings it home. Don’t worry about genre. Just appreciate the passion. Please don’t forget your promise to get back to Linda Ronstadt. Love you guys. 🌺✌️

[@greghaendel6667]

I think you would throughly enjoy "Maybe"! Janis has the grit with a lot of soul and emotion.

[@redindenver6666]

She dabbled in a number of different genres, but you could tell her passion was the blues -- just straightforward, hard-core blues. LOVED her.

[@SoulfoodPogo]

JANIS JOPLIN IS THE MOST PASSIONATE FEMALE VOCALIST TO EVER WALK THE EARTH

[@KevinSchmitt77]

The older that I get the younger Janis seems. When artists pass before their time it really does make the world a little bit more drab. Keanu Reeves was asked by Stephen Colbert, "What happens when we die?" Keanu paused for a second and then said, "I know that the people who love us will miss us."

[@jeanstrickland2445]

Amber I can tell she touches your soul 😀

[@NancGall-wl5rw]

I am drawn to revisit this video. First of all I am so happy that Janis is in your life, and that of your daughters. My sister and I were about 12 and 13 when we first heard the album Cheap Thrills. When my sister was 15 she got a part time job, and had cash to spend on buying more of Janis's music. Not only that, my sister decided to rock Janis's hairdo, and you should have seen the crush velvet pants and blouses she had in our shared closet. The observation you had with Janis's stepping back into herself is spot on. I've seen actors, musicians and athletes step into themselves, but when Janis goes in and comes back, it means she had traveled to ALL the light and dark places, and she turned all that wisdom for the pain into music. All I can say is more Janis.

[@kathymiller1608]

She’s in her own genre, you can’t stick her in just one

[@MrBonners]

called 'Texas Blues'

[@ptournas]

I've always thought of her as primarily blues, but yeah, crosses over into so many other genres, soul, R&B, jazz, rock and more!

[@MrBonners]

kzbin.info?search_query=texas+blues

[@ptournas]

@@MrBonners "Texas Blues" always seem to me to be one of the muddiest mixes of music genres. Of course it wasn't even heard of as a genre until the late sixties, a few years after the great book on the history of the blues in Texas, "The Blues Comes to Texas". There were certainly lots of great bluesmen who came out of Texas, but not a lot of it was anything new, with the notable exception of T-Bone Walker who pretty much introduced the electric guitar to blues. He actually played primarily Jump Blues, and later helped create the West Coast Blues genre. But to me his style of music was completely different from Blind Lemon Jefferson, often called "the father of Texas Blues". And Blind Willie Johnson's Gospel Blues style doesn't resemble either of them. Mance Lipscomb's style is very much like the Delta and Folk Blues of Mississippi John Hurt (who is not considered Texas Blues). And honestly, it just seems crazy to me to consider these diverse styles anything like the styles of Johnny Winter, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Janis Joplin. To me "Texas Blues" more of a generic term for anyone who comes from Texas and sings or plays the blues than a valid and distinct sub-genre of the Blues. I've heard some claims that it's Jump Blues, but Jump Blues came out of Harlem in the late thirties.

[@MrBonners]

All genres are come out of other forms. Eg. Rock from R&B and Southern Blues spawned the genre "Texas Blues', it's own stand alone genre for decades, no muddy mix. Eg. Rock from R&B and Blues mix. See: Stevie Ray Vaughan, ZZ TOP. Same for Rockabilly rock, see Stray Cats and the Punk Rock/ New Wave genres, see Billy Idol and Blondie. All around long enough, decades, to be stand alone. Chicago Blues is another.

[@arizrich]

Janis came out of the psychedelic scene of San Francisco but she sang the blues, soul wrenching blues. Peace!

[@lindahoward4465]

Janis was the greatest female woman a gem and she still is in her music to this day and forever she will always be remembered for all eternity ☮️💟🙏😘🥰

[@pipeledzeppelin]

I cried with you 5:00 great Janis, greetings from Chile

[@lucasroth7922]

I remember seeing that performance the first time it ever aired in '68 laying on the floor 3ft from the TV with amazement! I was 9 years old lol. How blessed we are to have lived in a time of civilization that had artists from Michelangelo, Mozart, Beethoven to Janis Joplin and everyone in between and beyond! Considering the earth millions of years old, amazing!!✌🤘

[@hubrisnaut]

I grew up with this kind of soul power. Where is it now? Really enjoy you kids exploring music.

[@theglanconer6463]

Janis is so grand. RIP beautiful lady. She had so many other songs in her.

[@Marvintheballoonman]

Thanks for letting me see Janice once again through your eyes. Seeing her live, multiple Amber's emotions 50+.

[@Dudlow]

I'd love to see your reaction to one of Janis's heroes, Bessie Smith. When Bessie died in 1937, she was buried in a grave that remained unmarked until Janis, along with Juanita Green, bought a headstone in 1970 which read "the Greatest Blues Singer in The World will never stop singing." Check out Bessie's songs 'Gimme A Pigfoot' or 'Me and My Gin' or 'Nobody Loves When You're Down And Out' or 'Tain't Nobody's Business'.

[@debibrown9328]

Honey, Janis was Janis...she was a force of one and never to be another.. so much love, pain, hurt, joy..every emotional feel...this goddess could sing .

[@mikegriffeth806]

They interviewed Janice one time and ask her about her performance she said I don't perform I take my soul out and hand it to the crowd.

[@dlpaulin1210]

Janis is the Queen of Rock & Roll !

[@phaworth8520]

Janis I think always identified with the Blues tradition and the grandes dames of Blues esp Ma Thornton, whom she idolized

[@CB-gr1uk]

Janice was a beautiful soul.. She felt every song she sang.

[@pearlsaphier3458]

You two kids have grown so much in your appreciation of music. It's a beautiful thing for your kids to watch. There's nothing wrong with an artist that truly touches you with their spirit like Janis.

[@energyexecs]

...I grew up in that era and listened to Janis Joplin. But grew up in a distant rural area so no chance to see her live and I was a little too young. And as a young guy would always gravitate to just "regular looking girls that no one notices but are genuine and full of talent and thus gorgeous". That's what Janis Joplin represents for me. And yes I get a tear out of my eye too because reading her biography she was just looking for love and acceptance. Rest in Peace Janis.

[@marilynk30]

Amber you saying that about her coming back into her body is amazing because I seen it and I've also seen it with Elvis Presley in his Trying To Get To You performance from the comeback special. When he's done he does a thing and it's exactly that

[@Shrykespeare]

"Down On Me" should be your next Janis song. It's so fantastic.

[@stevenmix3723]

Wow, who was the original artist or songwriter for that? Nice call.

[@patty3188]

I still remember where I was when I first heard her sing I couldn't believe my ears I was 16 ive been a fan ever since you need to read her biography her life was not easy.oh and thanks for making me cry lol

[@shirleybuffington6420]

Janice is a blues rock artist

[@MrKRUB123]

JJ reaches deep down and sings her guts out! FEARLESS.

[@Markrealguy51]

Amber your reaction is priceless

[@rebo2610]

First to respond! Love y'all! Love Janis, too. Please check out Emmylou Harris for a Female Friday! Two Bottles of Wine is a great choice.

[@danstanicki4636]

Janis put every bit of herself into a song. God Bless her and rest her soul.

[@SuperSusieBell]

Janis such a beautiful soul.

[@michaelstafford1307]

Not everybody can hear Janis but you two can. Have to have a deep soul.

[@markmoil3012]

Folks...I am 65 and Janis Joplin still makes me emotional ! Man..I don't like being older...but I am sure glad I was young during those incredible times. Cheers from Canada

[@jamesyeatts5706]

I know this is a comment not on my beloved Janis but I KNOW you will ABSOLUTELY ADORE these 2 selections by singers you love, Joe Cocker and one you WILL love, Nazereth. The Joe Cocker song is Cry Me A River from the Mad Dogs and the Englishmen album. The GREAT Nazareth song is Love Hurts. These are MUST HAVES!!

[@jeremyfagner6808]

Janis is in a genre all her own. Paved the way for all female artist to come

[@mikefannon6994]

I was lucky enough to see Janis sing twice in 1969, still in love with her! No-one better, but I would suggest Ella Fitzgerald and Etta James.

[@sjw5797]

Ella!

[@mstewart109]

And don't forget Beth Hart for blues and rasp

[@johnplaysgames3120]

Etta James is a great suggestion for a Female Friday because she's actually one of Janis Joplin's idols. When you hear Etta sing, you can definitely hear the influence she had on Janis's vocal style. A great example is this live performance of "Something's Got A Hold On Me." kzbin.info/www/bejne/habIqpSDpLqIqpY Etta does an extended acapella intro where you can really hear that soulful, bluesy grit and the sort of vocal mannerisms that Janis adopted.

[@nancylipscomb550]

@@johnplaysgames3120 Love Etta James. Just recently discovered her wonderful catalog of music, blues, rockin' blues, funk, soul, and love songs. I of course knew "At Last" and "Somethings got a hold on me", but when I was making a Playlist of cover songs I came acrossed her cover of "You can leave your hat on". I thought WOW, I've got to hear more. So now I listen to her stuff nearly everyday. One of the greatest singers ever!

[@georgelogan6515]

She was so real it hurt in a glorious way! 🌻❤️

[@terryrogers8304]

Amber gets so excited about Janis Joplin. It reminds me of when you guys watched Halestorm last July and were so excited about Lzzy Hale and wanted to know about more Halestorm. But you have never been back. I suggest that you watch the official video of "I am the Fire". There are a ton of excellent Halestorm songs out there on video. From their new one "Back from the Dead" to the long list of great songs from the past such as "Here's to Us", "Ms. Hyde", " I get off","Apocalyptic", "I Like it Heavy", "Love Bites", "Freak Like Me" or even their slower side like " Familiar taste of Poison" or "Break In". Go back and enjoy some Halestorm. Also as a hint, Lzzy has done a ton of collaborations with other artist, like the Hu.

[@yelnek4548]

Agree. Been too long for Halestorm. 'I Am The Fire' would be the obvious choice, but the others you listed are also worth a listen. Add 'Rockshow' and 'Daughters of Darkness'.

[@judipierry549]

Listening to Janis affects me like listening to the great classical singers, brings tears to my eyes.

[@PRMillette]

Crimson and Clover by Tommy James and the Shondells, you'll love the psychedelic effects.

[@dbradx]

Oh man, Amber is gonna love this one! Great choice you guys - happy Friday, thanks for always bringing the light. Peace and love from Canada!

[@palmirasanchez]

Janice is the most amazing female singer. I love love her. Much love for you Amber for choosing this song!!!

[@ericanderson8886]

"To Love Somebody" live on the Dick Cavett show is great. The interview is really good as well.

[@warrenhughes911]

Yup..Dick really liked her!!!

[@rockubtzer]

This was a Dick Cavett show performance with an interview, she did several. Funny you said she kept it real because she said the same thing in an interview. She was timid and shy, said she kept Pearl in a cardboard box and put her on for shows. Glamour wasn't her thing she was part of the audience not in front of it. She kind of watched herself on stage with the rest of the people. Peral was the performer Janis was a wallflower. It's a shame they took her friends from her (her band) They wanted the headliner, not the whole act, Lonely she turned to drugs. Had her boyfriend not stood her up leaving her alone and waiting in a hotel, I think she'd still be here. She had a strong will but a timid nature in need of people to lean on. People were always absent when she needed them.

[@elipolonsky4235]

This song is a cover by the amazing Janis Joplin and she definitely made it her own, but it was originally recorded a few years earlier by the late soul singer Howard Tate in 1966.

[@JimiBurleigh]

Even "Big Mama" Thornton said Janis did the definitive version of "Ball & Chain" at Monterey Pop. When a Blues legend like Mama Willie Mae says she defined their own song - and kept saying it til the day they died - you know that we're talking about a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Bob Dylan said a similar thing about Jimi Hendrix and "All Along the Watchtower". And we know how special he was 😂🤘☮️ LL&P🖖 Tioraidh an-drasta 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@victoriagrove5344]

Amber I agree. It is Janis' authenticity as an artist that makes her #1. She never gave less than 100%. She was very involved in the production process. Nobody comes close to Janis because she was 100% real.

[@dorothyesked1802]

Janis allows us to feel her emotions through her voice , energy, and her pain. Janis has always touched my heart and soul.

[@blackprix]

I do hope sometime soon you check out Laura Nyro. She started her career in the late 60s as a songwriter for everybody else with some great hits for other people. She was told by many that she needed to do her own singing. Her personality was much like behind the scenes person. Long story short she decided to do that and the rest is a wonderful catalog of music from her! She was unique, and her singing style and yet attracted great attention from a wide variety of an audiences. She was so good she finally was inducted to the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame I believe it was 2012! Well deserved that should’ve been there sooner

[@rickeyjay7164]

Agreed. She was so unique, pulls you in emotionally.

[@robynsmith3040]

Laura Nyro is a favorite of mine. Genius.

[@ziggymarlowe5654]

I've often thought where Janis would have gone with her music had she lived. I know it would have been great.

[@sallysharp3845]

Love her or hate her, there is no denying Janis was Authentic with a capital A. "ME AND BOBBY MCGEE" is a must listen.

[@tombeyerlein3813]

I've said this before, but you should react to Janis' version of the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody." You'd both dig it

[@scottelement]

I’ve been spamming their video with this request for a while now. I love the version on the Dick Cavet show. I think you’re right that they’d both love it since Jordan loves the Bee Gees

[@paulamelnyk986]

I saw her in concert about 3 months before she died. It was in a football stadium and we were sitting on the 50 yard line. Even from there you could feel her pain. It was authentic. Her performance touched me like no other performer has.

[@michaelplowman8674]

GET IT! WANT IT! NEED IT! Honey I love me some Janis. And I will always suggest Kozmic Blues. My all time #1 Janis song.

[@annalenuzza7888]

Another beautiful song is Work me Lord live at Woodstock..and Amber,you r a sweetheart ..

[@christophersontraskys2743]

Big Brother and the Holding Company. Janis at her rocking raw soulful just great. Thanks guys! :)

[@paulpeterson4216]

Amber- you get emotional because YOU are so authentic, too! And incredibly insightful for one so young. Much love to you, Sis!

[@djlydia9500]

So I’m so happy that you love Janis so much. I had the pleasure of meeting Janis at a concert in New York. She was the most humble and thoughtful artist I have ever met. I got to see Janis 3 times live! I’m glad you love to share her to everyone. Check out the Song Little Girl Blue. You talk about emotional.

[@cassmcmlix]

As Janis Joplin said, "Get it while you can because it ain't gonna be there when you wake up man."

[@dannysalamon5731]

Love when Amber gets to react it Janis, the joy is palpable! If you feel switching gears a bit, listen to Celine Dion, you’ve just scratched the surface with her. Listen to “It’s all coming back to me now” or “All by Myself”. She also has a duet with Barbara Streisand that’s incredible!

[@guillermoguerrero1951]

I agree to Celine Dion's "It's all coming back to me" but also to Meatloaf's version. They are both great.

[@dannysalamon5731]

[@victoriagrove5344]

Thank you, Rob Squad! I love your reactions! You discovered Janis and she is the best female singer ever!

[@robertfurner1729]

when you are this good and unique, you are your own genre

[@col-hiwildcats6717]

Janis did her thing her way. She felt ostracized in high school and once she started her music career it was sort of "I'll show those bastards." She brought Kris Kristofferson as her "date" to a high school reunion to prove she had "made it." Then she cried all night after it was over reliving the bad memories of her youth. She was born to sing the blues like no one before or since. Suggest that you react to "Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)" as she was in rare vocal form on that one, plus she was backed up by the "best musicians she'd ever had" (her words) on the recording. The "hippie" or "flower power" generation (my generation) philosophy was pretty much described by the "Gestalt Prayer" which can be summarized as "I do my thing and you do your thing; and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful." Janis epitomized this IMO.

[@lindagaudin9546]

My very special girl!! I absolutely love Janis, influenced me so much with her voice & lyrics! She puts me in a place of survival & to get what I need & want!

[@Cheryworld]

best rock and roller singer of all time. That's the genre , I think, influence of soul blues and jazz

[@aelder1961]

I absolutely love Janis. When she died in Oct 1970 I was devastated. I was only nine years old but I loved her then. It was probably the screaming. Lol. I always loved her raspy voice. I wished I was older so I could go to Woodstock to see her, that was in 69, my mom didn’t like that idea, especially the thought that I even knew what it was. Yes they did have TV then. But Janis was a rebel and so was I.

[@TexasPride62]

Was so glad to see you get to this song. I thought Amber was going to cry when Janis sang the lyric "...we may not be here tomorrow". I hope can get to some of her performances on the Dick Cavett show 1969/1970. Her and Cavett were opposite, but theyloved each other and had great times when Janis visited the Cavett show as a guest.
