Honestly, think of the balls it takes to take probally the greatest rap song ever written and twist into something where youre all alone with just your audience and a fkn banjo. And she smashes it like a pinata. Massive respect.

[@achebwahs1111]

As a fellow Aussie I must admit I hadn't given Chambers much time and then she punched me, broke a bottle over my head, pulled me off the stool and I whimpered at her feat. Just through this one performance. What a fool am I. Live and learn. Great reaction brother

[@rikkim4818]

The same.

[@vishnunaidu2385]

You don't know emime.. please don't do thàt

[@Katrinagaming-en1os]

ache. Great comment 👏👏👏

[@lindylufromoz5111]

Spot on. Yeah I'm from Aus too, and I never really listened to her coz I thought she was a bit too 'country' for my tastes. I was wrong too. I'm now a new fan of hers. x L.

[@achebwahs1111]

@@lindylufromoz5111 Exactly my reason too

[@pauldillon6579]

She did...lose herself in the music and took us all with her. Perfect reaction too.

[@Rosie-ij3on]

Never thought I'd get choked up over an Eminem song. What a performance. She did a fantastic job of emphasising how lyrically deep this song really is

[@kirsten3112]

It's sooo good! Eminem gave her permission to release this on her Spotify. The music is of the live recording... But the video is from fan videos. She asked for fans to send in their videos from this concert & then she cut them together to make this 🔥

[@jayceejames6576]

You know that the poor banjo was going to be shredded when she pulled out that pic. The song is hers, she's made Emimen's song hers, as good as the original if not better. Kassey leaves blood sweat and tears on stage - nothing left in the tank when shes finishes a live performance, let alone the studio

[@cytuber]

It's great hearing someone who knows what they're talking about respond. She does GET it!!! The flow, the rhythm, the cadence. An artist.

[@Timelord774]

Who knew that thrashing metal banjo and slide guitar was something missing in our lives? Apparently Kasey Chambers knew. By the way, that's her dad on slide guitar. Kasey and her dad are country music royalty here in Australia, but she never lets genre define her and is willing to go wherever her talent leads. This is what you get when you put that talent into COVID lock down with nothing to do but play with music.

[@jimmywrangles]

She grew up in the Dead Ringer Band, that's her brother on rhythm guitar and backup vocals and her Father on lap steel slide guitar. She's been playing on stage since age 12 and is Australian musical royalty. She's lived this song.

[@jimbo3207]

This is exactly why I love reaction channels.

[@elizabethscott7660]

Kasey is always proof that you don't have to be a Soul Singer to sing with Soul.

[@785boats]

I think we all knew at the start, that a man of your musical integrity, knowledge & appreciation, would truly understand what Kasey & her band have done there. Kasey is mainly a Country singer, with a huge following down here in Australia. But every now & then she crosses into other genres. She is a huge fan of Eminem, and she certainly did him proud with this homage to him. I sincerely hope he has seen it. Just a note. They asked for members of the audience to send in video clips from their phones. Those clips made up a fair bit of this video. That's why the images weren't pristine throughout. But what a brilliant concept.

[@Oatmilllk]

He has definitely seen it, because Kasey has it on streaming platforms now which means he has to approve covers to be on there. The writers and owners of original songs must approve for a cover to be on streaming services

[@785boats]

@@Oatmilllk That's great to know. Thanks Bianca.

[@melissatodd560]

​@@OatmilllkYep, as soon as it hit Spotify, I knew he'd seen it and approved of it. Amazing.

[@scottwallyn3171]

It was Duncan Toombs that put the video together, look him up. He is an amazing singer song writer himself. One of the best guitar players in Aus

[@UOTDF]

Great Aussie talent. And probably the best Eminem cover ever! She made it her own! Really enjoyed this reaction

[@roddow612]

I've seen a dozen reactions and you're the first one to notice her grabbing the guitar pick so you kinda knew what was coming. Kudos

[@justmejoy124]

Dude the passion in this is phenomenal 💯🤘😎

[@chaoticoldbore]

Something ive noticed on nearly every reaction to this is that everyone claps their hands at least once during it.

[@johnshea5967]

Eminems lose yourself is one of the best songs ever made,now it's one of the best songs ever made TWo TIMES!!!kudos to Kasey,that how to perform live!!

[@rowaineboyd1536]

I've heard Ms Chambers before and it's always a treat. But honestly, where else will you find a rap song turned into bluegrass banjo headbanging? Incredible! Love your reaction and analysis, man, thank you.

[@strayandrongo7461]

She really meant that. What a cover

[@kathydurow6814]

Kasey & Eminem are almost contemporaries, she's 4 years younger & broke through in the US with "Am I Not Pretty Enough" back in 2001 (compare: Lose Yourself came out in 2002) & she spent her teen years performing with her family's country band in Australia. In the US she's classed as alt country. But shes the background where she can relate. You've got to be good live to really get places here usually, although with fewer venues, tv shows & internet occasionally turn up good performers. But its no coincidence that Tones & I (another Aussie) did street performing to hone her skills. I digress. Try Pretty Enough or "Ain't No Little Girl" if you want something gritty "The Captain" was a hit here too but personally not one I really like.Think she's always listened to Eminem & this was a covid lockdown project from what she's said in interviews. 😊

[@justmejoy124]

I'm at that 8 minute mark and this is dope AF bro dope dope. Love when artist can take something and put their own signature to the writing of another artist and bring such a whole new feel on it a diff vibe but the story rings still solid but this was a deeper feel on it imo

[@spellcaster7893]

A huge thank you to your patron who got you to react to this. It’s one of those once in a lifetime performances and the world needs to see it. I’m hoping that other big reactors take it on and discover the magic and send it viral. Great reaction.

[@lorihutcheon5363]

Best reaction EVER! I’m the mother of a son who grew up loving Eminem and I recently came across this mind blowing performance! She encompasses the definition of badass and quickly earned my respect! Thank you Anthony for breaking it down the way you did…it’s even better, if that’s possible! Shared with my boy and he got goosebumps as well…Lord forgive me for the times I asked him to turn down his music! SHAMEFUL🤦🏼‍♀️

[@jsims556]

My God this girl is FIRE. 14:54 gave me a case of those almost-painful full leg goosebumps. Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about... or maybe it's just a me thing lol

[@LizetteC45]

Wow! That ending was amazing.

[@bonoroo5313]

Good to hear a proper music person react to our sweetheart, and she is a sweetheart, this is her most dynamic song by far. Loved your reaction and you have a new subscriber.

[@vivross8339]

Ditto

[@rookere1604]

Kasey is an OG in Australia and has expressed how she's been a huge Eminem fan for the last 20 years and how he has inspired her as a song writer, great reaction bro

[@sierrahp]

Kasey's about 10 years my junior and as a young fella I used to buy fish and chips from her parents' shop in Southend, South Australia. Her whole family is musical (that's her dad on the slide guitar). We are all extremely proud of Kasey. I don't know how many times I've watched her video for this song or other reactors, but it just don't get old. Thanks for the reaction. Liked and subbed. Love from Aus.

[@mikenicholas9017]

Where is south end?

[@keegs666]

Eminem better call and ask for his song back.

[@icudbNE1]

The first two verses are in the "third person", then the drop, then it's all in the first person. What a PERFECT placement on that drop, emphasizing that the past is over. God DAMN Em is a great writer And Casey deconstructed every word and pieced it back together in a way that's even MORE moving that the original. This was an amazing reaction. Thank you.

[@jasonremy1627]

I don't know why, but this version makes me bawl. The metal section. It's so good it just makes me cry.

[@julianaFinn]

This is her song now

[@themaharaniscloset]

Can see this song meant something to her.

[@loveloochay]

YeahYeah.. 5 stars 🎼⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎼 .. thanks Anthony for introducing me to another fierce artist ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@shawry6971]

Thanks for taking the time to react bro. I knew youd love it and was definitely worth the wait. Keep killing the game legend 🤜💙🤛

[@noone6559]

Australian music, pub rock... live shows.... ARE BRILLIANT..... no bullshit, no autotune...... no wonder we aren't really that interested in international artists.... unless they conform to our standards... otherwise we'll fucking boo them off the stage lol

[@gdemlyn]

“No way that just happened” EXACTLY

[@denisehaukkala9742]

More rap songs should get the bluegrass-esque treatment from Kasey. First time I've heard that done. What an oddly synergistic alignment.

[@AlabasterJazz]

I love when artists genre swap original songs, makes covers so much better.

[@Cyannah117]

Thanks for doing this one! Kasey is very under appreciated and needs to be recognised more on an international scale! Kasey is a master of storytelling, conveying lyrics and emotion! She is an icon in the Australian music industry, mostly for country and folk, but has her own style and is never afraid to delve into something outside the box. She is just getting better as she gets older. I really hope that Eminem has seen this and appreciates that his song and lyrics were re-imagined in such a spectacular way. Where else would you see banjo, pedal steel guitar and rock band together? Kasey started her solo commercial career around the same time as Eminem and she was a big fan of his music. Kasey spent lockdown playing around with some of her favourite songs and this version of Lose Yourself is the result. Brilliant! Kasey has spent her whole solo career bucking the constraints of the record companies and always gone her way. She made it to the top in Aussie music anyway with many awards, becoming the youngest ever ARIA Hall of Fame recipient. BTW….how was Lose Yourself for breath and vocal control? Not to mention the awesome arrangement. ❤ Also, that was Kasey’s Dad, Bill, on the steel guitar.

[@that70sgirl17]

Now THIS is a reaction - I've seen every one of the reaction videos out there of this performance and yours was fantastic (not a fan of the spoilers at the beginning as I prefer to watch it unfold blindly, but I digress). You gave it the respect it derseves and understood how amazing it was that she re-imagined it and chose an arrangement that totally honours the original but puts a new spin on it. It was another reactor who got me on to this cover and I'll never forget how surprised I was as it unfolded. This earned you a new subscriber.

[@vivross8339]

Wow. Best reaction i've seen to this awesome performance. Informative and you seem to know your stuff. You have a new australian subscriber. Love to see your reacts to more aussie talent.... john farnham, jimmy barnes , guy sebastian.... and more..... always do live performances for our legends

[@shawry6971]

I loved Mr LBoyds reaction too, check it out if you havent already

[@craigbarrett2278]

Seen a few reactions. It's a very unique captivating performance. Yours has been the first genuine admiration I've seen. Most are jumping on the 'craze' of the moment..... I wonder if the band and Kasey herself realised at the time what they have done? Masterpiece!

[@SGI999]

Yep shivers and goosebumps! Eminem done by Casey Chambers . Brilliant cover of a brilliant composition . Loved your reaction 👍👍👏👏

[@cjjoe2385]

Sounds like you may really enjoy Aussie music. Cold Chisel - Bow River (live 2003) This specific performance goes off, and will leave you just as impressed as you were with Kasey. The harmonica in this will also leave you speechless, being played like you have never heard one played before. Australia’s best pub rock band. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/bom1gId6jLuafdU&pp=ygUSQm93IHJpdmVyIHJpbmdzaWRl

[@opotikigirlabroad2558]

I'm really enjoying your reactions - the detail is excellent! and I enjoy the hell out of this performance. Thank you 💜

[@TrevorSampson1955]

Awesome explanation of the power and smarts of Kasey Chambers, the family played with the tune over Covid lockdown and boy did they do it justice, g'day from down under in Oz

[@scottw5253]

That was fukn amazing. You are totally correct - she put it all out there, nothing held back and that makes all the difference. This was highly entertaining. Very well done

[@jenniferhearn4117]

Love your reaction to this unique rendition of Kasey who is a Country Singers reworking of this iconic song. Another great cover is Cold Chisels Wild Thing from their Last Stand tour One of the best live performances lve ever seen with them making this song their own just as Kasey did.

[@sammy_dog]

hell yes

[@netmeg]

Glad you liked it. FYI the gentleman with the hat on steel guitar is Kasey's father.

[@chaoticoldbore]

Keep an eye out. I have 2 reactions for this lined up with a couple of reactors in the next week or two

[@justlinsu]

Brilliant! Kasey didn't just 'SING' this Kasey 'LIVED' it. Slowly telling the story...then showing the emotion of the song....then ANGER! Wow I had my hand on my heart and tears in my eyes... I believe Eminem would appreciate this performance from Kasey, as she sang his lyrics with such passion. Loved your reaction and analysis too Anthony. Liked and subscribed, waiving from Australia.

[@wesleygalvin9983]

This is one of those videos where if you look away from the screen, you'll miss something! From beginning to end, pure genius.

[@johnmilham8243]

You said it exactly the way I felt it, watching this live performance. I have seen Kasey live years ago and she was brilliant but this performance is that of a hardened tested professional that has taken her art to a new level. And your reaction was just perfect for me to enjoy seeing it again like new. Thank you and all the best for the channel.

[@ssvr3dl1n38]

Thanks for a brilliant reaction. This is one of the best I've seen to Kasey's version and I've seen a lot. I really enjoyed your detailed explanation of the variation Kasey applied to this whilst respecting the original. You've won a new subscriber, cheers mate.

[@joelenesimpson6788]

You know that's her Dad on the lead guitar slaughtering that out... It's totally soulful.. Kasey is the mofoing bomb 💣 💥

[@srjwaugh]

I like the fact that it took all of 16 seconds, @2:16, for you to realise what a monster hit this was. Also Anthony, best reaction ever!! I loved how you deconstructed it, and it's true, to be able to take the lyrics and turn it into a blues/rock ballad is next level. I like how you, as an artist, can still be genuinely surprised, so well done Anthony. btw, love your music. btw I've watched so many more reactions to this cover, and you still amaze me with your reaction, and ooh, I teared up hearing her performance

[@chadvacek9447]

Your reaction is spot on……that shit was CRAZZZZY!!!! Amazing!

[@Oatmilllk]

INCREDIBLE!!!! and she really showcased Eminems writing too! Phenomenal

[@debbieoconnor7054]

Having lived in Sydney for many years I know Kaseys work well. She is a very talented singer. Has a great voice. Thanks Anthony for reacting. 2:06

[@justmejoy124]

Anthony I enjoy the fact you get as pumped up over great music as I do facts

[@user-bm2gq9jb5l]

she said hold my beer

[@dianeemanuel8541]

Her arrangement show her love of the original.

[@yakidin63]

The crazy part is that she's normally just country and western. Not only did she change the song but she changed the way she normally performs. That is the cherry on top of all that musical wizardry right there. Amazing YT musical experiences like that don't happen a lot.

[@terenasimons5247]

How great is this cover, she put an amazing spin on it and made it her own. Her dad is the man with the cowboy hat on the slide. Nice reaction !!!!

[@markfoster74]

Awesome reaction 👏👏 Thankyou!

[@dianesorensen2549]

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry so I think I’m just going to do both‼️💯❤️

[@caro.k2958]

😂So happy you found this our Kasey is super special long past time we shared her with the rest of the world. Her rendition of Lose Yourself hits hard so emotional raw and powerful ❤❤❤

[@ItsMeTeenuhLeigh]

This was beautiful.

[@kevinbradshaw7273]

She's shredding on that banjo! Great version!

[@Cyannah117]

Always love reactors reactions to the change between soft solo and full rocky angst! 😂❤ Just wish I could have been in the audience…it would have been so mind blowing!

[@chaoticoldbore]

Netmeg is doing work getting this in front of reactors 😊

[@netmeg]

Eh, I've been a fan for well over twenty years. But even apart from that, when I see something truly special, I become an evangelist for it, if I can. You were probly there when I harangued Brad about it. But it worked! ork ork ork.

[@Daydream_Singularity]

It was epic. I'll be listening again and again. I love Kasey Chambers. Yes, I'm Australian. She has been around a long time. I don't like country music generally but all her music is an exception for me. It's just all so moving and wonderful. A true artist. Love you, Kasey.

[@user-pq4oj2es1r]

Best reaction of Kasey's interpretation & I've been trouling reactions every night for the last week. Thankyou, Kasey is much ❤ here in Aus.

[@jaegermeister1968]

a musical work of art and the band is also sensationally good. I'm 55. I've attended hundreds of concerts in my life and heard countless cover versions, but this Eminem song has been brilliantly reinterpreted.

[@stevenmckee6134]

Still gives me goosebumps

[@mareehutchin2702]

The way Kasey can hold the attention of a music hall audience with just a her voice is amazing… I’ve heard her live a few times and she never ceases to amaze me…

[@rebeccagilligan5691]

I watched this live!!! Nothing like it.

[@grobinson7507]

Wow this is amazing 😊😮

[@jonathancapps1103]

"The only thing that's the same is literally the lyrics." And the cadence. But that largely flows naturally from the lyrics.

[@Twinkle_Toes88]

I’m old, and I’m hearing a bit of the Eagles in here; a few chords of Hotel California 😮 I can’t stop listening to this!! ❤❤❤❤ My gosh, I love it!! ❤ I’m SHOOK!!😮

[@joelenesimpson6788]

No wonder Emiem approved her for the cover.. Slay

[@happyolddude]

While you watch this performance remember Kasey is a very well known Country star here and her band is also very modern country. I have seen her live at least 20 times but not like this ! WHAT A TRANSITION! Thanks for your respect for this very fine artist as she writes most of her own material. I believe this was the very first time she ever sang this live. Her dad Bill is on the slide guitar to her right. Amazing to say the least.

[@ItsThatAussieChick]

👋from Australia 🇦🇺 Kasey is brilliant, I totally love this version . She nailed it ❤️

[@shauns5680]

To add to all your incredibles at the end - incredible review of this song - one of the best on KZbin ! Thank you from a brand new first time viewer now subscriber 😊

She understands that song inside out.

[@noelanderson8915]

I hadn't heard this song from Kasey until just the other day, not to say I am not a fan but this is so different from her other music. Now, I'm even more of fan. Great reaction mate, you've discovered another Aussie talent.

[@kennethdodemaide8678]

Epic. Best cover ever. Bloody brilliant. She ripped it up and owned it. It made me appreciate Eminem's lyric genius even more. Love it.

[@danielleoeding2880]

She doesnt have a huge amount to relate to in the lyrics of this song so she emotes it incredibly well. I love this version, musically genius. Our little aussie country singer ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Lynnie_14]

Aussie here 🙋🏼‍♀️🇦🇺 Regardless of the genre, I love anything Kasey sings. Her voice is emotional and powerful. This blew me away 🤯 She's fantastic ❤

[@Oliver_Cumberland]

Great "cover", isn't it? Another couple of superb covers by Australian artists: John Farnham: "Help" live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra - another "cover" that is really a "new" song; Cold Chisel: "Wild Thing" (last stand) live - a straight up cover that pretty much captures the wild thing ethos. [Apologies if you have already watched them but if you have I couldn't find them.]

[@barbierebiffe8612]

Okay. Late to the game on reactions to this song. Gives me goosebumps all over. Oh and Anthony, you have an amazing soothing voice. Good voice for radio, great head for TV. The whole package. Love your reaction.
