Beth can make an old man cry.

Awww...🥺

Here's WHY you're not easily familiar with Beth Hart. Beth has walked a long, difficult road. Only true blues affectionados are aware of her prowess. She was composing songs and playing Beethoven on the piano at the age of 4. Beth won Star Search in 1993. Got a contract with Atlantic Records and put out 3 albums before they cut her loose for her behaviors and addictions. Beth was born a severe bipolar ... full-blown. Father abandoned entire family early in the game. He reconciled with all of her siblings, except her, because she was "strange". Beth was ashamed and blamed herself. She started self-medicating her bipolar with drugs and alcohol at a young age. Fast forward through the addictions, arrest, suicide attempt and anorexia. She was even committed at one point. Beth is now clean and sober and takes her bipolar meds regularly. Blues guitarist/composer/singer Joe Bonamassa took her on, after she was totally clean. Beth now also tours by herself. NO female vocalist has her range AND control. Beth's 2020 tour schedule is now on-line. Beth SANGS the blues because she's lived them. Welcome to the world of Beth Hart. Enjoy the ride.

[@evilvolts]

One of her most famous performances "Am I The One" live at Paradiso is a song she wrote and also performed at that Star Search that she won. I would recommend anyone that hasn't seen that performance to see it.It's so phenomenal and breath taking she brings out her Joplinesque style of singing in it's fullest.

[@harmvandeseijp8607]

@@evilvolts IThat was in Paradiso in Amsterdam I was there. A world performance and then to think that she got a chance because they were not convinced that there would be an audience. It turned out that the ticket sales went so fast that they had to switch to the main hall. She has had a special relationship with the Netherlands ever since.

[@kathleenkarsten5739]

YOU should write Beth’s promo! You did such a good job, I got goosebumps! And I already knew the story! 🤣🤣🤣 Well done! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@kathleenkarsten156]

Beautifully put. 👍

[@chamberlainachilihu4141]

Is still going as number one with Beth n joe

[@stephenord3403]

Beth is beautiful X

[@roymeryman8098]

“I’ll take care of You”, and “A change is going to come”(Beth Hart solo)” are musts.

[@TheBlaster54]

What an outstanding collaboration between Beth and Joe.

[@phyllisb4634]

Beth comes from a place of real pain from a young child experiencing abuse and abandonment to dealing with bipolar and substance abuse. That caused her to lose a recording contract, but she is clean now and brimming with talent and stage presence. She is a force and it will be fun seeing you get to know her. I believe that Joe B. is the one who gave her the chance to get back to performing and they have amazing chemistry together. He is a force in his own right.

[@jaycer71]

Single greatest vocalists ever. My opinion of course. And she started as a rock singer. Still does it but definitely more in the blues vein these days. Chills every time.

[@deborahmazza8123]

Agree!

[@wendellburkhart2483]

OH Yeah !!! I've said she's the greatest female vocalist of all time ! She's not Human ! I've listened to her for a long time and I'm yet to find words to justify her voice ! If anyone finds those words... please post them because I'd love to see what they are ! Absolutely Amazing beyond anything I've ever seen in my life ! I remember the first time I watched a video of her... I literally lost my mind and just about drove everyone else crazy making them watch the video with me 😂 Love her.

[@williamcabell142]

Hi Lynn! Love ya! These two together are a Homeric combination! Beth is so sensual, Joe is a massive talent as is Beth.

[@anitathompson9360]

Doesn't disappoint ❤❤❤

[@gaylemitchell5881]

She killed that song

[@j.t.3798]

Beth is amazing, but Joe is simply on another level. One of the greatest guitarist living! Amazing talent and chemistry between the two.

[@chamberlainwonder369]

No wonder joe is that great with all the keys n note in guitar. N make guitar cry for real for real

[@lisahunt1178]

Etta James is one of Beth Hart's Idols. Joe and Beth are amazing together

[@brucecronin6396]

Great reaction to a great song !!

[@danielherrlein4549]

[@chamberlainachilihu4141]

In the eye of the world, this beth won today's voices n soul music period. I can pay anything to see her in stadium

[@fredericktomolillo8961]

[@terryhullett4664]

Good one hearing you down in cowboy country in Alabama

[@kathys6402]

First time for me listening to Beth Hart, love her voice and this song was pretty damn good. Thanks for sharing this one, Ms. D.

[@jgordon5316]

Beth rocks it, as do you.

[@danielherrlein4549]

You were all the way into this one!!

[@tankstephens723]

You HAVE to react to "I'll take care of you" Live from the Beacon Theatre in New York! Just rediculous. Her vocals and his guitar are just other worldly! You will not be disappointed. Love your reaction to this performance. I will be back!

[@williamwood3304]

beth is a musical genius, she proves this on her new album, war in my mind. if you havnt heard it give it a listen.

[@DLynn]

Thank you!

[@evilvolts]

She appeared on Star Search in 1994 she even performed some of the songs she did like "Am I The One" later becoming her most famous performance song "Am I The One" At the Paradiso

[@orlock20]

The same season Beth Hart was on Star Search, there was another act, Girls Tyme, which would later become Destiny's Child.

[@StevenEverett7]

Nice reaction! It's a pleasure to see someone new discovering Joe and Beth for the first time. Singly or together both these musicians are incredible. Cheers, Steve

[@bigbow62]

Better than the original 😇🎙 ( Nuff Said )

[@gaylemitchell5881]

Ive been waiting for someone to do this. Beth is awesome she has other songs

[@gaylemitchell5881]

[@kathleenkarsten156]

Beth and Joe “I’ll Take Care of You” will rock your world! Sexxxxxxy! 😍

[@evilvolts]

]:) Glad to see you got to hear them ]:P

[@tommyfurr3028]

You have reacted to Beth hart when she was younger.She did a number she wrote called am I the one when she went down in the crowd.You loved it.

[@CARNELIANTURQUOISE]

I just came upon your channel tonight, I will subscribe. One of my favorite things is to see people hear Joe Bonamassa and Beth Hart, it's amazing! "Don't Explain" and "SeeSaw" are two phenomenal albums! @cardy54 you and I are on the same musical wave!!!

[@DLynn]

Thank you for your suggestions and for subbing. Welcome to my channel!😁

[@davidkeller6156]

You should check out Beth and Joe on I’ll Take Care of You

[@westpalmtom3461]

Hi. I like your style. The intro was very good, stop in video wasn't any problem, great reaction too. Try Beth and Joe doing her' "Caught out in the rain" or " Am I the one" live. I'll be seeing you. Happy holidays.

[@sven-olofmattsson1077]

Dear D, love that you about discover Joe Bonamassa and Beth Hart. I would suggest you listen til "Ill take care of you". Personally that is my favorite with those two artists. Having said that anything with Joe Bonamassa is amazing. :-)

[@musicluvr70]

This song, and the one she just reacted to, are my favorites. I only discovered Beth and Joe about a year ago on a reaction video, and I was an immediate fan. Bought the DVD that this song was from. This was their final song of this concert.

[@kathleenkarsten156]

It’s my favorite too. ❤️

[@deborahmazza8123]

Absolutely. Caught Out in the Rain is incredible too.

[@slash-1971]

Am I The One, live at Paradiso is the one to react to!

[@bignosekate7523]

Over the top live performance....raw, sexual, intense!

[@erinhafer228]

If you want to hear her at her most raw and powerful, react to Am I The One live at Paradiso. It’ll blow your whole mind!

[@shirleycarr5387]

Another great one by those two is ill take care of you . And im the one

[@byzinski]

One of the greatest live performances I’ve ever heard or seen (I believe this ☝️ was at Amsterdam in 2014 ?) 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🎤+🎸. My other favorites : Yebba Smith ‘My Mind’ at Sofar NYC (2016) / Jessie J ‘Purple Rain’ at Sing2018 China / Freddie Mercury ‘Somebody To Love’ Montreal 1981

[@crystalperkins7616]

Correct except it was 2004

[@marvinboswell6889]

You need to react to joe ..I play the blues for you .. that is Joe's band .. all great musicians .. great reaction , 10 thumbs up 👍 👌

[@shirleycarr5387]

Those two are dynamite.

[@elenaHernandez-nu7fw]

Beth is the greatest.other song you should react to is caught out in the rain.I don't think there is a song she could not sing.

[@gaylemitchell5881]

Yeah. Credit

[@randiroswell3199]

I am a HUGE fan of Beth Hart. Ya should check out -I'll take care of you. AWESOME!

[@marlahudgins7038]

Home Free - Love Me Like That BRAND NEWE ORIGINAL

[@davidtullis2810]

Joe has his own style but I can hear BB King in his play

[@morthnadic1]

Another GREAT reaction D. Lynn!! Here is "Am I the One", Live at the Paradiso 2004... and imo Beth Hart's greatest performance ever captured live 👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4PSYmxnl8yjbc0 Also, if you want to get a good sense of who Beth Hart is, here is a recent interview of her 👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGjTmopsgceUm68 And this interview is from 2017👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYuap6Oorrt7pNU 🤘😎 💕

[@m.harrison2151]

Dear D! You missed the chance to review Austin’s live performance of “Love Me Like That”! I told you about it a couple of weeks ago, the one uploaded by Marcia G. You would have been the first one! Now the officially video was featured on the CMT channel last Friday, the first time ever for Home Free! It’s now out on KZbin. Sorry, you missed your chance to get the jump on this one. 😢

[@chamberlainachilihu4141]

Is Beth n Joe couple. Mmmmmm hold my money

[@Rick-or2kq]

If you get a chance check out her very recently released album, "War In My Mind". Beth Hart: War in My Mind Review: bluesrockreview.com/2019/09/beth-hart-war-in-my-mind-review.html

[@evilvolts]

Check out Beth Hart "Am I The One" Live at Paradiso kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4PSYmxnl8yjbc0 You'll never be the same ]:P

[@ceepeeo]

You could hear the real music if you would just use headphones.

[@DLynn]

So ppl that don't have the equipment to film music properly while using headphones are deaf? Is that what your saying?

[@BlastinAdrian]

I'm wondering why you react in your car?

[@byzinski]

Adrian Avila Great Acoustics ! That’s why

[@gregcormier2379]

Now if you don’t feel something after that performance then you need to go see a doctor !

[@porkycrook]

Just a hint for you, don't do research before you react. Because if you research first you have already got an idea what you are going to be listening too. Much better to have a true reaction, then if you liked go and research the artist, artists or group.

[@DLynn]

Hello! I did the "go in blind" approach for my first reaction. I got completely criticized for _not_ knowing the backstory of a particular live performance, even though my reaction and opinion would have been the same. So, that is why I do the smallest amount of research first. I'm guessing there's something that you disapprove of here, which I guess proves the saying "you can't please everyone" is true.

[@porkycrook]

D. Lynn it wasn't meant as a criticism but my preference. After all said and done it's your video and you can do as you like, but for me I would rather see a true reaction. But you do one thing right, that is you don't like stopping a video to chat and I would rather that than someone that stops at every note or thought they have. I did give you a thumbs up and I will go and watch more from you before subscribing. Can I ask what's the idea of being in the car, better sound, noisy kids/husband or are you homeless lol? Only joking on the last bit, it's my British humour. Good luck for the elections on Tuesda, hope you get what you want whoever and whatever that is.

[@DLynn]

@@porkycrook I want to be done with the political nonsense, really...not sure if it will end with my vote, but I did it anyways. I get what you're saying, but what is a "true" reaction? To me, it's watching/listening to something for the first time without any prior knowledge, history, etc. Yes, I might look things up, but Wikipedia doesn't tell me what the song _sounds_ like, or what other nuances, visuals or anything else that might happen in the vid. As I mentioned, I do the slightest research, so that I don't offend the hard-core fans of any group or artist with complete ignorance. There is still an element of surprise for me in the vids I react to...as for personal preferences, I can't possibly comply to everyone's, but I of course appreciate feedback. As far as where I film, my car is just where it happens. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@porkycrook]

D. Lynn been looking through your videos and I see another lady has fallen under the spell of Home Free lol, yes my wife and daughters have also fallen. Although I have only just found them as I said being from the UK. Some of the Christmas presents have been sorted although the way they swoon over them and there voices, let alone good looks I think I won't be getting any Christmas lovin, if you know what I mean 😜. If you haven't already listened to Eric Clapton's Wonderful Tonight I would recommend it as it's obviously written with you in.mind 💖💖

[@DLynn]

@@porkycrook lol...thank you. Now that *wouldn't* be an authentic reaction, because I've heard it before (and like it). If you have a different Clapton song that maybe wasn't mainstream, I'll definitely put it on my list, though I will say that I have a long list, so it will take awhile for me to get to your suggestion.

[@whoisewe4011]

Better than Etta James.
