Josh Kaufman: 'I Can't Make You Love Me' -The Voice Top 8

[@re.liable]

Absolutely love this rendition. Thank you for keeping this up, 10 years later

[@astraliaakbar722]

I’m in 2021 and still love listening to him sing it on repeat. I decided to find the video again to watch. Josh, I hope you’re doing well.

[@carloseno2746]

2020, still the best rendition of this song i heard

[@adrianvillafuerte2623]

Jared Martinez lol teddy swims isn’t as vocally talented as josh Kaufman. Josh’s has a way bigger range and a lot more strength

[@bpark3726]

Agreed ❤️

[@rod_triplxvi739]

I've heard so many good versions too in The Voice Australia and the Japanese guy in Steve Harvey's show.

[@vanessaraerae]

2021 still is

[@MrOFW]

2019 already but I still can get enough of it, who else?

[@antrenagardner533]

Me

[@paulir5796]

Me

[@salliemae9284]

Me.my favorite from Josh Kaufman who won The Voice.I rooted for him.He was stolen by Usher from Adam Levine.

[@chayanan9701]

Me too

[@pinsan6690]

2021 still love the version.

[@MrMarkpark]

How am I supposed to stop watching this when it gets better every time?

[@alicerodgers61]

Love love can't get enough

[@snail6723]

2:23 messes me up every time!!!

[@larryfranklin4547]

2023 and I am still loving this video. Josh Kaufman and Bonnie Raitt are the two best doing this song.

[@Cherokeeutube2]

Still tuning in to this, Josh, Josh, Josh, I'm lost for words. To me this is the best performance The Voice ever had

[@carriel9954]

He’s my favorite voice winner. The voice doesn’t have talent like this anymore.

[@jld4870]

Agree Cherokee and Carrie!

[@travistaylor6110]

It's so good bc you can feel he sings from a real place. Alot of singers are just actors with a good voice. Then you have people like this.

[@davecamden1799]

2024……the best performance of any the Voice has ever had. Totally awesome.

[@carolchelius1067]

Still one of my favorites ❤❤❤

[@kimberlymason6457]

Came here after Victor’s performance last night. I appreciate Victor, but there will never be another performance like this. Seriously the best.

[@marvaswepson5199]

This guy is amazing I only listen to this version Go Josh

[@francersosimo9851]

It’s November 2020 and I still have to hear him sing this beautiful song. The best. He has such a talent for interpretation of how to form the words to this song. Every now and then I like to revisit his beautiful voice on this song.

[@Day.day_is_cool]

I never comment on videos but this one is an exception. His voice is amazing and when he sings this it gives me chills! He is the best singer out of all the seasons.

[@marsswep2794]

Jessica Harper Agree except Jesse and Anthony lol

[@Ago468]

Still coming back for this one

[@kathleenspeegle3517]

My favorite Voice performance ever!!!💕

[@francersosimo9851]

Absolutely beautiful voice. Love this version

[@astraliaakbar722]

The ABSOLUTE BEST RENDERING OF THIS SONG. You live it with him.

[@armedfoodie]

2021 Still listening...

[@jacquelineprude8191]

2023 and this is still the best rendition ever!

[@DivineDiva85]

I love this version of this song. Here in 2019

[@marsswep2794]

[@Mahyong88]

Until right now still listening his version..

[@lelouch111]

2022 and this is still the best

[@jimsibayan2172]

best rendition

[@gerardusharjadib.2090]

This song is one of those which always touches almost everyone no matter who does the rendition, because of its very heartbreaking lyric...

[@astraliaakbar722]

No. It’s the way he does it. It’s how you lived it, or would, if you did.

[@Golfdewd]

Best performance of the night, no contest. Josh Kaufman's been my favorite of the season, now he's one of my all-time faves and I think he has a genuine shot at winning the whole damned thing. Outstanding performance, terrific young man. I hope he pulls it off.

[@TaskForceB]

BUTTER

[@himher164]

This song pluckes the strings of my heart, this version intensifies the beauty. Well done sir, bravo!

[@marsswep2794]

Him Her man that high note I took off flying lol

[@eriothkeruma6643]

Every time. Tears every time! 2019 still my favorite Josh

[@SpitOnYourPalm]

Mar 29th 2018 and this cover still blows me away

[@laurenpaxton9534]

Right? Still my favorite Voice performance ever.

[@nickyvtown]

Here in 2020

[@goticcian]

All of sudden i started to remember And sing this song in my head. Then i googled part of The lyrics. Found this performance one of my favorites. 😍

[@MicheleStorkson]

It’s 2023, and he still sings it the best with so much emotion! Love it!

[@johnnytucker6709]

He's the best singer in the building. That includes the judges.

[@rivaminniefield6076]

Amazing

[@gabrielf.cespedes6451]

what?! amazing!

[@prettypoppin_552]

I LOVE IT. This is one of the best versions I've ever heard. So soulful❤. Right up there with Rozzi's. No wonder he won. This man is dripping with soul

[@10835tee2]

I like Josh a lot. His talent is so unique and soulful. My votes for him will be high hoping that he will win the show he so wants, for quote on quote "his family."

[@Aggarius]

Haven’t heard this song in like 2 years then suddenly sang it in my head so had to come enjoy this again😍

[@Aggarius]

Hi again, long time no see Edit: whoa, no way this blew me away this much in the past. This was so perfect wow

[@ihsanddin8439]

Cant believe this clip is not top search for this song, its like global conspiracy or something

[@alanpease8474]

This is a great song, sung beautifully. Josh lays bare his heart and soul and you can't help but be very moved.

[@kaywilliams6950]

One of my very all-time favorite performances, on The Voice!

[@christianbutler6866]

November 2018 and I literally still come back to this cover. That high note at the end straight kills it!!!!

[@marsswep2794]

Christian Butler Fire buddy

[@MrMarkpark]

It’s in my favorites and i play it a few times a year still.

[@lolisasalomon2969]

Timeless...gives me chills. November 2020

[@gffry]

Still keep coming back to this in 2020 ❤️

[@dwiputrisutanto1945]

Me too 😁

[@CLINTROBERTZON]

so much emotion. I loved it

[@valenciabush1243]

He officially became the winner at this moment!

[@MrMarkpark]

How would the judges even try to judge that. He’s better than all of them. The best version of one of the saddest songs ever.

[@acedelrosario2342]

2022 and still the best cover of this song!

[@gLmm019]

2021 AND STILL THE BEST ONE

[@Diamond2711]

Turn down the lights Turn down the bed Turn down these voices Inside my head Lay down with me Tell me no lies Just hold me close Don't patronize me Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't You can't make your heart feel Something it wont Here in the dark In these final words I will lay down my heart And I feel the power But you won't No you won't Oh I'll close my eyes Then I won't see The love you don't feel When you're holding me Morning will come And I'll do what's right Just give me till then To give up this fight And I will give up this fight 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel Something it wont Here in the dark In these final words I will lay down my heart And I feel the power But you won't No you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me oh oh If you don't

[@bluecollarnobody4217]

DUDE YOU ROCK ENOUGH SAID

[@realhakimrasheed]

This guy is amazing!

[@ThisIsJ.Nicole]

This is a difficult song. He got me at the first three notes. Didn't know he was on the Voice. Come to the cookout...bring some Tupperware cuz you gettin' a to go plate too.

[@blueskye6372]

Now March 2021 still wonderful and powerful. ✌💕💗

[@shicruisin7004]

Beautiful

[@GryLi]

he is so talented

[@marshallrori6445]

2020 almost done, but it's still amazing on my ear...

[@terim525]

So amazing it’s the best version of this song I’ve ever heard!

[@marsswep2794]

This dude is the Real Deal IJS Here in the Dark I took off LoL

[@joeb5958]

Here in 2022. The memory of this performance popped in my head. Needed to see if it was as good as remembered….. even better it turns out

[@mosart7025]

I still can't believe he didn't play guitar once, or sing any of his original songs! His album Forgetting... to Rembember... to Forget is the only album I've ever heard where I love every single song, instead of just one or two standouts.

[@pietersite26]

Stunning!

[@rosemayravens2010]

I love it.

[@eriothkeruma6643]

No shouting or straining... My favourite still!

[@123123roo]

Usher being his Coach Was so Great for josh, but he got some mad skills

[@lyndaaugustin6326]

I just watched his full blind audition and he actually picked Adam as his coach. Maybe Usher picked him up later on after Adam let him go. Smh such an amazing singer and I felt every word he singed. God bless Josh. See you in Heaven. (Will be even better).

[@BreydonsRC]

Josh to this day is the best singer to ever be on The Voice. No idea why he has never been invited back for anything like some of the other artists have been.

[@Annathegem]

To answer your question, he was on a racist talk show that trashed Usher. It wasn’t his fault per say but that tarnished his opportunity. The saying “you are the company you keep” unfortunately.

[@BreydonsRC]

@@Annathegem what talk show was that?

[@Annathegem]

[@astraliaakbar722]

I think he was as enamoured as the rest of us. It was mesmerising. Still, he takes you on the journey with him. It’s a story excellently told.

[@suzannegaglie6146]

Bonnie Raitt would be proud of you for this rendition of her amazing song

Josh by far

[@johnnytucker6709]

@@marsswep2794 Whoa! By far? I don't know about that lol. I don't think anyone could make the case for either one of them being better "by far" than the other. Josh is a phenomenal singer... But I feel like Jordan may be better. Just my opinion.

[@marsswep2794]

Johnny Tucker this performance right here Shut it Down and drop the freaking Mic LoL

[@johnnytucker6709]

@@marsswep2794 fair enough lol

[@raama135]

If we’re talking about technique, Jordan is definitely the best singer ever on The Voice. But singing isn’t only range, pitch and control. Josh has one of the warmest and most beatiful tones i’ve ever heard in all the 18 seasons of this show. And his voice is way more emotional than Jordan’s.

[@chrislyons6181]

When a skinny white man sounds like a fat black guy you know you have something special.

Daryl Dixon because he is better. Christina was just a powerhouse. He had more control but rest her soul
