She really showcases Em's writing in this. I lived in Appalachia for 20 years, and that cry in her voice makes me think of Old Time music, telling the story of the struggle in poverty-stricken communities there.

[@jayweb51]

After listening to the audio, and realizing that they didn't video the show; Kasey appealed to fans on social media, for any phone footage of this performance. This clip is coordinating fan footage with their audio recording; from that point of view this video, it's as dramatic as the song itself.

[@stephenbarr773]

One of the most powerful, creative videos of the decade.

[@metricstormtrooper]

Century

[@philflynn9161]

In my opinion, this might be one of the best covers ive ever heard

[@jayweb51]

The guy on the slide guitar is Kasey's father, Bill. Before Kasey started her solo career, she was in the family band 'Dead Ringer Band' with her father, mother and brother.

[@brettbridger362]

just to be clear, this is the 'guy on the left with a guitar in his lap'.

[@jimmywrangles]

Her brother on backup vocals and guitar and her Dad on lap steel slide guitar, It's the family business.

[@robby1816]

You're absolutely right. Don't be sorry. Kasey's emotional rendition makes you appreciate Em's writing skills. "goes home and barely knows his own daughter"... how can this song not tear at your heart strings. Plus, Kasey never phones in a performance. This is about her struggles, too. Her song "(Am I) Not Pretty Enough" sounds like a love song, but is in response to the main-stream music industry ignoring her.

[@evermoredragon892]

Great reaction, thanks for the upload. This is from the description on the video: The video for ‘Lose Yourself’ is thanks to Kasey’s fans in the audience on the final show of her recent Behind The Barricades tour. After much demand from fans to release the live performance and noting so many cameras in the air, Kasey asked fans to send through any footage they had filmed. The result is a perfect time capsule of how a great song, performed authentically from the heart can bring a room of strangers to connect in such a powerful shared emotion.

[@kennethdodemaide8678]

"Brilliant and powerful" is right on. Eminem brought the lyrics but Kasey brought the emotion which made you appreciate the genius of Eminem's lyrics. Best "cover" ever. Loved your reaction.

[@user-yv4vr7mx4o]

It’s really shows that Em’s lyrics aren’t just about him. They’re about all of us. Yes, they tell his story but we can all relate. Thankyou Em. 💯♥️🇦🇺

[@srjwaugh]

Don't be sorry. This is a powerful rendition so filled with emotion, you would have to be a sociopath not to feel it. IMHO, this is the best cover of any song ever.

[@Aussie-63]

GDay Mate, Best reaction to the best cover ever. Take a star out of petty cash, you deserve it. You also qualify for a permanent Aussie Visa . Of course, you may be deported following any future Ashes series losses we may incur in future years. You gave that a red hot crack and smashed it for six. Well played young cobber. Pie and Beer waiting for you. 🦘🐨🍺

[@shonamcnally5855]

Brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to this. Absolutely beautiful!

[@AK00777]

Great vid! Don't apologize, it's definitely an emotional cover. And especially for going back to soak up every moment. She really flipped it. This is probably the best cover ever.

[@user-hx2kl1ju6r]

great covers like disturbed sound of silence and sinead oconners nothing compares 2 u i thought couldn;t be beat, but now i know i was wrong. music that brings emotion deserves to get your reaction.

[@julianaFinn]

I've heard this about 50 times now and i still get emotional. It's such a great interpretation of a phenomenal song.

[@thebackyardbear]

As I've said before... I have always admired the original and the inspiration by Em... but Em never made me cry.

[@jemxs]

Fantastic reaction, music is meant to evoke the feels. Kasey's performance and Em's lyrics.. just phenomenal! Kasey has 20 years of raw and emotional songs. A favourite is Ain't No Little Girl!

[@wesleygalvin9983]

What an extraordinary work of art!! From Em's lyrics, to the band, the fan phone footage to Kasey's emotional vocals. Never EVER apologize for being moved by music, this is what it's for. Your reaction was as raw as Kasey's performance. G'day mate from Australia.

[@PeteFindsObscureStuff]

This is an epic cover. She nailed it!!

[@jayweb51]

I get that same choking of the throat, as l do watching the movie Marley and Me. Kasey was emotionally drained, at the end of that performance. It was incredible.

[@user-yv4vr7mx4o]

A perfect example of why the song was written in the first place.

[@lawrencesmith6536]

The guy on the lap steel is her dad Bill Chambers, who had a band in Austrailia called The Dead Ringers

[@skyerushton3831]

It adds such a beautiful sound to the song 👍

[@MrChristbait]

The "dude" on the left is playing slide guitar and is Kasey's dad.😂😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@lisarighetti6973]

Hey Chief, if you want to experience more from Kasey I highly recommend "Aint no little girl."

[@rachelcarter5282]

Yesssss

[@carlahelin5203]

For sure!

[@carlahelin5203]

Live I think is better then the official video. Just my 2 cents.

[@River0akes]

Ah, excellent choice! She’s an absolute legend

[@cherylwitter5038]

She put her soul into that🔥🔥🔥

[@MicahBell_1860]

The guy on the left is her father, Bill Chambers, on the slide guitar I've listened to this at least 100 times. I'm in tears every motherfucking time

[@jayweb51]

This performance by Kasey, with all the emotion; l believe, conveys the attitude of mainstream commercial radio stations towards playing her music. Kasey had a hit with "Not Pretty Enough", off her third studio album; this was a commentary on the attitude of those radio stations even though she already had a huge following, in the end public opinion forced them to accept her and her music. As the statement goes "Never Put Baby in the Corner", in other words don't try to put Kasey in a 'box'.

[@mals4125]

Live version with Keith Urban at the ARIA awards 2001 is just a killer.

[@alphaomega2117]

The relentless cadence of rap doesn't lend itself to subtler emotions - here you can hear the fear of failure and then the fear of success that was always there in the lyrics but was sort of lost in the originals aggressive delivery. I am pretty sure he would be proud of someone bringing out the subtler aspects of what he was saying that his own style probably never could. The fragility she brings is something he never could despite him clearly experiencing those deeper emotions and also when she goes all Janis Joplin the anger and determination really hits home in a way thats accentuated by the softness of what came before. Her Dad on the slide guitar is pretty epic too.

[@vanburger]

That's what you call a cover, Simon cowell.....god you made it your own.

[@user-jo4jv7cx9x]

Rippa! 💙🇦🇺

[@user-jo4jv7cx9x]

Thanks for liking my Rippa ……. Chief gets a happy every time!

[@ScottCQuick-cz8lk]

she absolutely "tapped the universe" with that magical performance, and we all got to feel that energy of connection along with her. this showcases the power of music to touch people and change lives. and clearly highlights the genius of eminem's songwriting.

[@andrewpereira9271]

Chambers is a fantastic songwriter in her own right. A great, ironic lyricist. She started out with country music but branched off into many other areas. She's a huge talent, as is everyone in her band, as you pointed out . . . a ton of talented people. As an American fan for a long time, I'm happy she's getting attention outside of Australia. Check out some of her originals . . ."The Captain", "Pony," and "Am I Not Pretty Enough?"

[@rachelcarter5282]

This is the most haunting song. This is what taking a someone’s work and putting your own spin on it. I heard that Em let her keep it and never allows that.

[@rachelcarter5282]

@stanroach2842 thanks for clarifying

[@lynw.6140]

@stanroach2842. There is no evidence he hasn’t.

[@bernadettelanders7306]

@@lynw.6140 As a wild guess, an assumption - for me, someone who’s heard the name Eminem but never listened to anything at all before by E, but after Kasey and band performed it and being on KZbin, I have listened to Eminem’s lyrics for the first time and totally blown away by them. So I’m only guessing if I’ve heard it, not knowing what Eminem’s lyrics are about at all, I’m guessing E has heard K’s version 😊👍 Just a thought 🤔

[@raymckee2450]

@@lynw.6140 Eminem spends an enormous amount of time here in Australia, so there is no doubt that he does not know of Casey, and therefore will have seen the video!!

[@markfoster74]

🥹 Brother! 🫂You absolute bloody legend! You smashed this reaction, just as you always do! 'Fanx' so much bro 😅. Much love 🫂❤️💪

[@mals4125]

Fantastic reaction. She is a superstar. Check out 'Ain't no litlle girl' - live at the Bluegrass Underground. You will no be disappointed. She just leaves it all out there every time. live is always better.

[@carlahelin5203]

Yes!!!!!!!

[@GraceWicks-mm5fs]

Enjoyed your genuine reaction to this phenomenal cover! Kasey is just amazing in interpreting "Lose Yourself".

[@allenabrams-dw4hy]

Awesome reaction, Chief! ❤

[@lynw.6140]

Kasey you are gangsta..

[@user-mx3uq6mx8m]

That was a very emotional response to an emotional performance. I agree this is better than the original. I get goosebumps every time I listen it this song. Love ya work mate 🇦🇺

[@stephenwhyburn6184]

Dude. I've watched this and 100s of reactions to this and I cry EVERYTIME. I'm crying as I type this. It's very moving. She has lived this

That’s Kaseys dad, Bill Chambers, sitting playing the steel guitar🌟

Loved your reaction and subscribed because of it!

[@helenmckeetaylor9409]

Me too👏

[@cyclone2515]

I have watched SO many reacts of this song, and I think yours is my new favourite lol. I think Eminem’s version is frantic, angry.. while Kasey’s version is emotional and desperate. She’s a fantastic artist, and I’ve had the pleasure of hearing her sing this song live.. so much more “everything” in person, so hard to describe the effect it has on a person, and I totally get your reaction. Cheers from Down Under, loved the react! 🇦🇺

[@larryc3860]

Best quote I've seen (from 'The Fairy Voice Mother')....."Kasey beats that banjo like it owes her money !"........emotional as hell.....Kasey makes us believe these are her words and her pain is real.......

[@Ian-hg8gx]

great reaction, just subbed from australia, we have dozens of artists this good, try brother by matt corby live for like a version

The guy on the left is playing a steel guitar. It's played horizontal either on your lap or on a little table.

[@Thesaurcery4U2C]

MUSIC... She owned it in that moment She never let it go After all She only got one shot Opportunity revealed itself to her She did not blow it! We witnessed the lyrics coming to life through her.

[@AuroraMeansDawn27]

I had goosebumps when i first heard this.

[@kerrylynch449]

Thats her dad on the lap steal

[@donnam5891]

I love Kasey's version of this song. I hadn't listened much to Eminem, but what amazing lyrics. I can even sing along, now. Kasey is passionate and talented & did the amazing arrangement. And the band was awesome, 110% definitely. I bet they knew this was brilliant when they were practising this. Love your reaction. Cry all you want. I do, nearly every time. I think I'm addicted to reactors, reacting to this.💕

[@TealOmen]

Stunning cover ❤

[@cardbuddy4988]

Best and most honest reaction that I’ve seen. 💕And I’ve watched tons. She gives you the opportunity to really hear those amazing lyrics. And the fact that you let your emotions show made it all the better to watch.

[@CeciA333]

Amazing and thank you Mark - an amazing cover and a lovely reaction

[@markfoster74]

I love this version Ceci, I'm so very thankful that Steve did the reaction. A great cover by the best reactor, what more could I ask for. I'm blessed 😇🥹❤️

[@williammceuen8730]

Yeah, she kicked the shit out of my tear ducts...amazing. M needs to do a reaction to this! Semper Fi from Wisconsin.

[@dazzman555]

One of the best honest and raw reactions to this song. Absolutely nailed it mate.

[@pufferzsola69]

It is similar like Sleep Tokens version of Hey Ya! or what Ronnie do with his reimagined series. It focuses you more on the lyrics, gives you a deeper understanding what is the song about. Pretty cool tho! Moms spaghetti made me realize it was an Eminem piece and i threw my brain out of the door :D Yes, that is a guitar on the left! Sort of. There is a style where you play on it while it lays in your lap. Usually the player has a tube and presses down the notes with that, that gives it extreme sustain and the sound can be "wobbled" as you wish. The other way to play in this style is having a light bulb in your hand. Pretty neat for soul/country style music

[@kathybrown6763]

I just adore you. 😊

[@seaster2493]

Loved, loved your reaction, Kasey has soo much of her authentic self in this, she emotes every word, and she is absolutely BRILLIANT!!

[@AuroraMeansDawn27]

BTW, this went viral and Kasey realised they didn't video it. So they sent out a message to all the attendees to send their videos of it. Thus the different angles. Then she sliced them all together. Which i think is fantastic.

[@jorice5528]

Fantastic & beautiful reaction to our Legend Kasey Chief 👏👏👏❤️Raw unadulterated Brilliance! I was totally blown away when I first “experienced” this Phenomenal performance, amazing arrangement & pure to the emotional interpretation of Em’s masterpiece - just legendary!! Em (or the owner of the rights to it) gave her permission to release on Spotify, that says it all 👏👏👏 She is aged 46 at the time of this performance 2022. I’ve always been a fan of Kasey, she is a freakin amazing & talented musician, artist & woman. But this was next level genius & so personal for her. She has lived every second of this story in her own way. The performance wasn’t filmed, she put a post out after the show to fans present to please send in any footage, the compilation of which you see. The band killed it, matching & building with her energy brilliantly. Long time band member Brandon (I think 🤔) on guitar & the vocals that nurtured the momentum & her dad on slide guitar making it sing like a phoenix - all of them together made this one of the all time best live, for me a rebirth, not a cover, that I’ve ever heard, seen & felt….to my core.

[@rosmeeker1964]
