"I'd trade all of my tomorrows for a single yesterday of holding Bobby's body next to mine." One of the greatest lines of all time, and this is one of the greatest recordings of all time. A song written by the legendary Kris Kristofferson and taken to majestic heights by Janis. This was from Janis' second (and final) solo album, the brilliant Pearl. Sadly, she didn't live long enough to enjoy the fruits of her labor, as she died shortly before the album was released. Janis was already a star, but she achieved superstardom after death, so much so that most people don't even realize that when they hear Janis singing on the radio, most of those songs are not actually her songs but are from when she was the lead singer of Big Brother & The Holding Company.

You ARE in a church when Janis is singing and that organ gets going!! This is my favorite Janis song. I knew you’d love it! I sing it all the time. Kris Kristofferson wrote it. He wrote so many of other artists’ best songs! He sang this one too, but Janis’ version is best. It was released after she died & hit number 1. I have to make another request for Big Mama Thornton too, since she was Janis Joplin’s biggest influence! I can’t pick a favorite but lately I listen to “My Heavy Load” all the dang time. My grandpa recorded several of her earliest singles & those are all great, too, especially “Hound Dog” & “Let Your Tears Fall, Baby.” But it’s her later work that influenced Janis Joplin more, like “Ball and Chain,” which Janis covered beautifully. These ladies are two of the best ever!! PS. One of my other favorites that Kris Kristofferson wrote is Sunday Morning Coming Down by Johnny Cash. What a poet!

Well, here's the story of the first time I heard this song ... I had been thrown into juvie jail - officially called "Juvenile Offenders Detention Facility" - as to why, that's another whole tale. Short version, my best friend and I had run off to Canada and after 3 months on our own, had been caught and brought back. They had a local rock station piped into the rooms to try to keep the inmates a bit less restless. The matron walked me into my "room" (cell) and the door closed behind me, and I turned around and saw that the door had no knob or handle on the inside. At that moment, "Me and Bobby McGee" started playing. It's engraved on my soul forever. I was 14 and thought I knew everything. The older I get, the less I know. I remember, whenever the song "Knock Three Times" would come on the radio, we would all pound on the walls and doors in time with the "knock three times" line.

Music is something played all the time in me and my sisters homes. Especially oldies like this. Years ago, my sisters friend left her 4 year old daughter for my sister to take care of, as she was not in a place to do it. One of the things she needed was to get a state medicaid card as she wasn't able to add the child to her insurance. While waiting to see a case worker, she heard the name Bobby McGee called. The little girl is singing parts of this song when my sister saw a man coming down the aisle who was about 6'5" and weighing about 300 pounds. As he passed, my sister is trying to quiet the child, but she was at the part that she loved. And she was loudly singing Bobby, Bobby, Bobby, Bobby. It was soooo funny. When he came out, he sat by the little girl and they sang Me And Bobby McGee together.

Janice was absolutely amazing ! “I’d trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday !” One of the greatest lyrics ever written.

Your face said it ALL! Great reaction! I’ll bet Janis Joplin was smiling down on you from Heaven during that. 🎶❤️🎶❤️🎶

This has always been my favorite Janis Joplin song. I also love that line, "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose". (Like getting fired or just quitting would give you the freedom to tell EVERYBODY what you thought of them.)

I loved her music. I vividly remember, as a teen, Dad yelling downstairs to my bedroom, 'TURN DOWN THE BOOM BOOM MACHINE'. It was often Janis I'd have cranked right up. Thanks for always bringing me good memories!

Janice had a rare trait where her vocal chords could express 2 notes at once. Its been scientifically recorded. Pretty cool, also explains part of her magic.

Glad you liked Janis ... You'll find lots of diamonds in the oldie goldies ... Janis Joplin is only one of the many. GREAT Reaction! She gives us old folks goosebumps because she feels the music in her soul, and she shares that with us!!! You ARE in church and you know because the church organ playing really drives it home!!! Welcome to the late 60s-early 70s!!!

She's epic. When I was a kid in the 70's my mom would be blasting her music in the house. Memories....

I know this is an older reaction but I absolutely love it!! She oozed talent that will never be matched. She is worth every minute of reaction time and of course, she is PEARL.
