GUYS---you just watched one of the greatest performances EVER...this one is ART.

[@seaoftranquility7228]

“I feel a chill and then another chill and a chill on top of that, I don’t know, maybe I’m cold.” Lol.

[@BeccyBum]

This 😂❤

[@archcollie5708]

Hey Dominika and Andrei. Thank you for reacting to this masterpiece, especially given this was a non-monetary request. Kasey presented this as her life in song - as a journey. It starts with the soft plead of uncertainty highlighting a lack of confidence. Then the mood all changed to a cry of anguish and determination. Finally, after all the hard work comes tremendous acclamation and success. She lost herself and left her soul on stage, laid bare and battered. Unbelievable and brilliant. This was a deconstruction of Eminem's incredible artistry reassembled and made better. That was a beautiful response, guys. We appreciate your comments and admire your journey. Keep well and give Arnold a big smoochy hug. BTW, thank you for posting this on Downunder time. 😁

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Hey there! It was quite an experience! She absolutely killed it on every level! Thank you for recommending this one to us! 💚😊

[@archcollie5708]

My pleasure. Glad you enjoyed.@@MerchantOfAlba

[@kenalcorn]

undoubtably the best live performance of 2022

[@amygone2pot]

I would never listen to Eminem, so this gave me the opportunity to hear his powerful lyrics and appreciate them - even though I do not appreciate rap. Kasey killed this.

[@julianaFinn]

I cried the first time i heard this version. I had a very emotional reaction also and that's the intention. Brilliant reaction

[@benc3214]

Kasey killed it for me there’s three moments that make this so brilliant. The haunting start and you actually appreciate how great the lyrics actually are, then again when she harmonies with the guitarist. Then when the band kicks in and she tears the muther fuckin roof off it, wow every time I hear this I get goosebumps.

[@jorice5528]

Fantastic reaction beautiful humans ❤ I am so happy I have found your channel through your Ren reactions & have been diving head first in to your catalogue of reactions, when I saw this beauty! 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 gave her his permission (or the owner to the rights of the song) 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. This was next level genius & so personal for her. She has lived every second of this story’s soul through her own life’s journey. 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 rise 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. Such a Great reaction & brilliant request from your long time supporter Archie 😊 I’m a new subscriber from Tasmania Aus & I’m loving your channel 👍🏻👏🇦🇺❤️

[@785boats]

Another great reaction. So glad you've found our girl Kasey. I'm not a huge Country fan, or a huge Rap fan, but what Kasey does when she steps outside the box is always special. A couple of things you might find interesting. That's her father Bill on he slide guitar. And after they realised what a great performance this was, Kasey and the management asked all the people that were there, to send in any videos they took on their phones & cameras This whole film clip is made up of that footage. So cool.

[@jasonklenetsky5687]

She did an amazing job with this cover. Made it her own in a creative manner. I do believe Eminem has heard it and gave it his stamp of approval. Cheers!

[@kcinsti]

Eminem heard it and gave her the rights to earn money on Spotify from it. I'd say that's a pretty meaningful endorsement 😊

[@alliegal45]

@@kcinsti not true

[@kcinsti]

@@alliegal45 not gonna argue, but it's been widely reported, not just on YT. Happy to see why you know it's false. I do know for a fact it's on Spotify.

[@alliegal45]

@@kcinsti yes it is on Spotify. That’s where the story ends tho 😊

[@stevenmeyer9674]

@@kcinsti One thing KZbin comments is good for is to spread false gossip. Eminem didn't give Kasey the ok to put this on Spotify for one very good reason. he doesn't own the rights to his music. His catalog was sold to Michael Jackson for 370 mil in 2007. Stop spreading dumb ass rumors trying to make your self look good.

[@josephwinder6878]

Brilliant

[@jcampbellshale]

She is singing from the lyrics and the heart.

[@williammceuen8730]

So nice to see you two again. I have not seen you since your Nightwish journey, which was awesome. Just like Floor, Kasey just kicked the shit out of my tear ducts. Amazing. Semper Fi from Wisconsin.

[@Jonathan-Sund]

Love you guys for your passion

[@simonmarshall180]

Took guts to do Emimen on a banjo.

[@anthonywilson6554]

I believe Eminem gave her permission to add this to the stream, and he isn't taking a percentage of her earnings for this track. It's the best cover ever of one of his songs (in my opinion). Great reaction. love you both xx

[@punkjay4681]

Doesn't take percentage? Can you provide a source for this?

[@stevenmeyer9674]

Not true. Eminem sold his music catalog to Michael Jackson for 370 mil in 2007.

[@kelleewolfe2834]

I loved your reaction!

[@tommyau2006]

this is your best reaction ever IMO................................you guys are cool

[@tommyau2006]

a raw entry from pain and anguish into anger.......................superb

[@kylec1411]

she nailed the emotion of this song. Em is a brilliant writer.

[@barrybarry5803]

The handsome Andrei and the beautiful Dominika... two of my favorite KZbin personalities!

[@JaneDoe-se8ku]

I think the impact of this song is greater, simply because you have a new understanding of the lyrics.

[@heffatheanimal2200]

So many artists and creators, in music and all other industries, can connect with the lyrics because most have gone through that. Trying to stay creative, bringing the art inside out and alive, all while trying to survive, pushing and preying for The Break. Em created an anthem we all feel, and how Kasey feels it comes through so clearly

[@jemxs]

Loved your reaction guys, fantastic! Kasey gives it 100%! Shredding banjo, powerful drummer and crazy keyboardist..and beautiful lap steel..has it all!

[@ianleslie2326]

Not a lap steel, not a steel just an electric guitar.😊

[@jemxs]

@@ianleslie2326 kool, I don't claim to be an expert!

[@tattoodude8946]

@@ianleslie2326 Bill Chambers, Kasey's father is sitting on the left side of the stage playing a slide guitar or a lap steel guitar - one or the other, as they are very similar instruments and often used interchangeably even though technically, they are different, but there is not "just an electric guitar". And since Bill Chambers is known as an excellent lap steel player, my guess is that is what he is playing. Either way, there is definitely a slide/steel guitar being played in this song. At 7:40 you can very clearly see his running a bar on the strings, wavering it back and forth to get that signature steel sound. There's also a keyboard player! - Which I find interesting for this arrangement! Edit/Correction: The only difference in a steel guitar and a slide guitar is that the steel is played with a steel "bar" in hand and a slide guitar has the player fitting a slide over the finger and can be made of glass or many other materials, including steel. A slide can also be played standing whereas a steel is played sitting, hence the name lap steel guitar. So, in this case, Bill Chambers is definitely playing a lap steel (and killing it, I might add!) and you can see him lift it off his lap at the end of the song.

[@dianeemanuel8541]

Great reaction !

[@mmddhh34]

Great reaction

[@scomti7057]

Love seeing how Kasey's cover affected you so much! This is one of the best covers I have ever heard! She really felt the lyrics!

[@GaryNoone-jz3mq]

You say she reached down into her own soul. She does that every time she performs. You should listen to more of Kasey.😊

[@nicisowter203]

Thank you both for such a wonderful reaction. She deserves the accolades after such a lot of blood sweat and tears trying to get recognised for the brilliant musician and singer that she is.

[@metricstormtrooper]

This is a brilliant reaction video, I have watched every reaction video of this song and still get goosebumps EVERY time I see and hear this.👍 this is the BEST. Performance I have ever witnessed, and I've seen an awful lot of performancese

[@finmon]

Saw her perform in 2006 here in Australia. She didn't sing 'Lose Yourself' though wish she had. Blows me away every time I see that video. 😯 Her concerts are a real family affair. Her father Bill, who can be seen in that performance, is sitting on stage with the lap steel guitar, her brother Nash does the mixing, and I can remember buying a t-shirt from her mother at the merchandise stand. 👍

[@AnnQlder]

Brilliant, just brilliant

[@shaunmorris8176]

Kasy was born in a small town in Australia which is not too far away from my place. I'm a huge fan of Eminem. I love this cover.❤

[@50NewEyes]

As said before Eminem did a great cover of her song…..lol 😊

[@zanecurrie8823]

Kasey writes most of her own material and I think this arrangement was a collaboration with her brother Nash who is a music producer and manager. My favorite song of hers is ( Ain't no little girl ) written after her marriage break up, absolutely brilliant, you will love it. I prefer the Official music video, but live it is also great

[@Pezzabelle]

Loved your reaction and I’ve watched many as this performance is so epic and blows people away. Kasey is so talented - highly recommend ‘Ain’t no little girl’.

[@wesleygalvin9983]

Rapp and hip hop were not as big here in Australia as the US. We are more rock, pop and country. So Kasey performed this for her own audience base. In my opinion, this is much better than Em's version because I can relate to it more. Awesome reaction guys :)

[@toddjames7]

She loved the song and when it was covid she come up with this version of the song. That was her dad on the slide guitar.

[@Mark-F-Hopper]

It demonstrates the greatness of Eminems writing and the genius of Kasey to make it (also) hers. Your reaction was a mirror image of mine when l first heard it. Musical alchemy. Kasey is an iconic musician, performer, writer and person. Much loved and much recognised in Aus. Check out her back catalogue👍

[@bernbee1679]

Kasey did the arrangement during lockdown as she loves Eminem and the lyrics. Ain’t no little Girl The Captain and Am I not pretty enough are also fantastic

[@ShowmeMOrocks]

Eminem has heard her version and has allowed her to run it in Spotify without copyright.

[@alliegal45]

Not true

[@punkjay4681]

Without copyright? Wtf are you talking about 😂

[@thomasnewton5919]

@@punkjay4681 Without it being a copyright breach. WTF are you talking about?

[@punkjay4681]

@thomasnewton5919 well, the post I commented was different than yours. Ofc the song has copyrights and they don't go away when you get a permission to release a cover version. Btw. There's no indication of Em ever hearing this version. I'm pretty sure he doesn't personally listen to every cover request sent to whoever owns the publishing rights, be it himself or some company. I'd love to see a source if there is one. Everyone keeps writing this on every reaction but nobody has provided any.

[@ray.shoesmith]

lol @ people who don't know how Spotify works 😂

She took an already amazing song and made it totally epic

[@johnfreeman5310]

Talk about keeping it in the family with her dad on slide and her brother on guitar. Amazing performance.

[@manna6618]

Kasey is a Skippy national treasure, and we don't want to share her...she is ours, and has a billion brilliant songs that all Australians adore. No one overseas knows her and that's just how we like it, every gig is sold out and she is adored in her home country, truly. Great that you got to experience our beloved Kasey but please don't make her too popular, we really want to go watch her weekend after weekend to keep our souls from disintegrating into commercial muck that is popular radio music. Aussies love our Kasey and we don't want to lose her to commercial American labels or the crap they pump out...she is ours and we protect her fiercely, coz we love her. X

[@brettbridger362]

Great reaction, glad you've discovered her. Kasey's a gem. Kasey is a famous Australian Country artist, inducted into our hall of fame. She has 20 odd albums to her name and, as you heard, puts her heart & soul into her singing, leaving it all on the stage. If you want to hear more of her, I'd recommend the following songs: 'The Captain' - This was one of the first songs she wrote as a solo artist, about those times when the world is just too much. 'Not Pretty Enough' - About the frustration from her album's success, but radio just wouldn't play her stuff. 'Aint No Little Girl' - (recommend the 'Underground Bluegrass' performance) About her reaction to some bloke stuffing her around. 'Nullarbor Song (Live) - About homesickness. Bring tissues. Enjoy.

[@bissy_in_melbourne]

So so glad you did this one!! That's her dad on the slide guitar who comes in second. She's fabulous, technically "country" but more blue grass in sound I think. Hi from Australia ❤

[@WayneFitzgerald-v2y]

To all the Eminem fans I think she is the only person in the world who listened to the song???? Kasey really loved this song she sang the first two verses slower as they were in the third person (we), the third verse is in first person (I) hence the voice. ????

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤EPIC!!!!🎉

[@denisequinn2137]

Glad use loved it as it is THE BEST EMINEM COVER EVER...She loves and respects his art of work and his craft..This is now her song as she made it fit to her way of doing it..Big smooches to Arnold too..🐕

[@cytuber]

Awesome reaction guys. Thank you.

[@kcinsti]

'It needed to be sung in that way's is a very insightful comment on this, and it fits perfectly with your reaction being so honest and appreciative about what Kasey ACHIEVED here, which in my mind is a superlative example of the ability to express oneself via music. Thank you.❤

Janice Joplin/Stevie knicks vibes, yet still her own… go KC

[@wink7845]

Em's writing is insane. The second verse with the o vowel flows so beautifully in this slow version, one gets to really appreciate what rap music can do for singers. Shows that technical writing skills can enrich the emotions and feel of any kind of song.

[@steveisaac2328]

Thank you! I wait every day for another reaction to this performance that has moved me in ways I never thought possible. And let me say I never listened to Eminem or Lose Yourself before, but this made me go out and rent the movie 8 Mile that the song came from, and buy a few Kasey Chambers' albums. And I wait for another reaction video. Yours was great fun, thanks again!

[@SunShine-qk4rb]

I like this. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard a Rap song turned into a country cover before but I think it’s great

[@larryc3860]

Kasey makes you think the lyrics and message are her's, not Eminem's.....the emotional impact is that strong to me .......as "The Fairy Voice Mother" said, "Kasey strums that banjo like it owes her money" ...........I hope you also felt the raw truth in her performance..................

Such an awesome reaction guys....to such a brilliant performance. and Yes Eminem had to give permission for her to place it on Spotify and receive monetary gain.

[@epishmeh]

Great video. I love you both! Similar to Johnny Cash singing NIN’s “Hurt”, Kasey took an existing great song and made it her own. Kinda like Ren does when he covers some songs.

[@kima.4268]

[@tonymackenzie6264]

How did I miss this from you two?❤

[@kayelle8005]

Kasey’s version of country is closer to the Appalachian and Bluegrass styles. Her cover of Dolly Parton’s Little Sparrow from about 20 odd years ago is also really special. If you like a sparse almost haunting style try something like Gillian Welch’s song Revelator.

[@Bob-wv7ed]

Love you two doing reactions! My favs are Ren, Peter Gabriel, and Kasey Chambers. You should listen to Genesis (with Peter Gabriel) Suppers Ready Live in Shepperton 1972. Amazing live theater!

[@arlin4591]

Loved your reaction guys, fantastic! Kasey gives it 100%! Looking forward to seeing this live on Feb 17 In Tasmania Australia at the Casino.

[@jayweb51]

This is the most emotional reaction to Kasey's performance that l have watched, watching the way this affected both of you was amazing. I would recommend that you now react to some her songs, she is a great Australian singer-songwriter of country music; having won numerous awards and accolades. "Not Pretty Enough" "The Captain" also her covers of Crowded House's "Better Be Home Soon" or Cyndi Lauper's "True Colours"

[@theotherdogknees]

And her dad is playing lap steel. I played this to my 87 year old mum, and she loved it. Mind you , she's always liked Em. Also got into Screaming Jay Hawkins back in the '50s, so no surprise there.

[@AndyFNQ84]

Love your work guys, thanks for the reaction

[@stephenmarshall1918]

Awesome reaction Dominika and Andrei, yes I have watched so many other's react to her version and they are all blown away as you were. Many of them are in shock when she opens with the Banjo as no-one understandably expects it. I also believe she relates to the lyrics because of the ups and downs she has faced as a performer. TC

[@gerardbyrnes5780]

First the tragedy.. then the m*therf*cking determination. She expressed it perfectly.
