@@angusm9419 I guess the point could be debated either way, but I know where you're coming from; Janis Joplin hailed from an era whose youth questioned or rebelled against authority / "the establishment," and with all the trimmings (drug abuse, sex, etc.); It's a great loss to the world that her life was so short because, sadly, she couldn't control her habits. And I have yet to see or hear a modern pop / rock diva who can hold a candle to Ms Joplin and her raw and immense talent.

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide the lyrics to Bobby McGee. I used to have a pretty nice soprano voice, but now -- at 64 -- it's more of a husky alto.

I decided that this song will be my "debut" performance, but I need to practice at home before I dare go on stage.

My dear wife's favorite rock singer. We used to "argue" over whether Kris K. or Janice sang it better. Murph died 4 months ago after 55 beautiful years together. I always remember her and cry when I hear this. She's listening to Janice live again now.

" Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose " How true, holy cow, so poetic in every sense. May he rest in peace.

Hard to believe anyone would or could say JJ was a one-hit wonder. She stands alone. Arguably the queen of Rock and Roll. So much passion and soulful expression. I have seen and heard alot, no one close to Janis.

[@roxannasmith5640]

I'm not sure why she's been on my mind the last few days. I've been suddenly fascinated by her life, short career and beautiful music. She had so much talent.

[@sallywillett9933]

Her candle burned at both ends but O what a lovely light.

That Pearl cover was hanging on my bedroom wall throughout my youth, as a precious Mona Lisa, down here in remote Brazil. That's how far and deep she reached. Eternal love.

My Dad introduced me to this song, in fact he introduced me to some of the best music I have came to know in my life. This video was release the day he went to the hospital and never came back. Feeling good was good enough Dad, you teached me that. Thank you for everything.

RIP kris Kristofferson... Thank you for penning this legendary piece.

[@plwilliams5462]

I was born in 67 and Im so grateful to have been here during the 7os. My mom and I sang and danced to all her albums, among many other awesome artists. She would hold Janis's album in 1 hand and dust with the other, every Saturday. Love those memories of us 3!!

''Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose'' R.I.W , Rest in Woke , my friend

[@napoliansolo7865]

When I laid my best friend to rest in her grave, I heard Janis saying "all my tomorrows for one single yesterday" I cried harder than I had ever cried in my life. I was sobbing and remembering all the times she had kept me sane. Thank you Gracie, I'll never forget the unconditional love that you gave me. I hope that God may bless me with a love like yours again. People would say Gracie was ugly when they first saw her-but I would tell them she was the most beautiful thing I had ever known. And all this from an ugly cat who never turned away from me. If there's a heaven, I hope to see you again.

[@deidreslifer4614]

There will never be another Janis Joplin it''s great that we still have her tones - We miss you Janis.

[@IngemoH]

Amy Winehouse. Similar talent & ending.

[@Nihilianth]

Two others I could think of that could push out that kind of pure unadultered energetic emotion: Tom Petty and Meatloaf. Slash and Jimmy Hendricks does (did in the case of Jimmy Hendricks) it on the guitar. Also, can't forget about Freddie Mercury!

[@verapawlak5260]

She and Yoko Ono on the same level.

Kudos to Krus for writing the besr song Janis ever sang. ❤ RIP Janis Joplin & Kris Kristofferson thank you both for some fabulous music

[@jennx.6]

I'm 53 and loved this song for decades; it continues to this very day to be one of my favorite songs.

[@eliphaslevizahed5820]

Wo is here i 2024? Janis Joplin Legend. ❤️

[@JustJoe827]

This song was played often in the early 70s when I was 9 or 10 years old. It would really touch me deeply and I would envision a little girl trapped in a dark hole crying for help.

[@KittyGrizGriz]

I like to think that Janis’s star burned too brightly 💫🌟. What a legacy of music and soul she left. It was a gift from her to help us out along on our journeys. Thank you dear Janis, you’ll always be Pearl ❤🕊️

[@kaylenedockery3088]

The most beautiful people Janis Joplin it's truly one of the most beautiful people I have ever had the privilege of listening to to me she is the epitome of strength and freedom her music is timeless and I will never get tired of listening to it I used to sing this song to my daughter when she was a baby back in the early 80s we would sit out in the field of daisies I would play my guitar and sing Janis Joplin to her it always put her to sleep and to this day and she is having a rough time even though she is in her thirties now she still calls me to have me seen Me and Bobby McGee by Janis

[@andymunoz5958]

KK you are still the man. I remember hearing why me as a kid. I did not understand it until 20 years later when I was reborn. Thank you and R.I.P

[@xavierchampion3835]

Kris Kristofferson died today. He wrote this song. R.I.P.

[@jayoestrike2136]

It takes a real man to be comfortable with a woman of such amazing talent. I feel there is is an underlying blues song for Bobby. He missed out on a great love.

[@laurapataki1509]

This song was written by Kris Kristofferson about a female Bobbie who was a secretary at his managers office, you should look up his interview about it it's a good story, this was released after Janis died and made Kris famous, he didn't even know she was going to record it. She said wait until that son if a bitch hears this 😂

[@kirkberryhill8171]

My Mom's favorite song. Listening to this always make me feel like she can see me and the kids. RIP. Love you mom
