Something To Talk About - Bonnie Raitt (Lyrics)

[@dranenancy908]

One of my favorite songs. Go, Bonnie! You are simply awesome - singing AND strumming

[@jessijohnson2935]

My mama played this song when I was young, I'm 39 now and the lyrics have taken on an even more meaningful value even off it's already pivitol view point years ago. Beautiful artist with a rockstar heart...this song says it all

[@croydonsfinest007]

Yes it does. Spiritually almost

[@arrownoir]

It's one those songs you don't listen to for a while, but get instantly hooked when you listen to it again...then proceed to put it on repeat for the next week or so, while you keep finding yourself reciting the lyrics involuntarily while having a conversation.

[@cbloszko]

Lol literally me right me

You got to know... I'm not just some guy...that is a voice of an Angel...! That voice is like a combination of Fergie and Jesus !!

She Ms. Bonnie Raitt performed this at the Lucille Hart Dinner in Portland, back in (I think 1993, if my memory serves me correctly) and my late husband Mike and I attended the Lucille Hart Dinner That Year!!! Yes!!! Bless Saint Bonnie, for Her Fearlessness!!! Thank You Bonnie!!! But that is not enough!!! Your song touched my heart, and made me cry, and there are not a lot of talented musician's that can do that!!! Bless You!!! Bless You!!! Bless You!!! Jesus made himself to be meek and to serve, and he loved all people!!! My late husband Mike enjoyed nearly 30 years of partnership, and I became a widower at age 58 last year on July 2, 20211, after Mike passed at age 83. Finally, When Oregon legalized Gay Marriage, Mike and I Married!!! that was 9 years ago!!!

Fabulous song - reminds me of when I met that special someone once upon a time.

Best proof that "hanging prepositions" are just fine! Thanks Bonnie!

[@KingUnKaged]

I dunno, I think "Let's give em' something about which to talk." has a pretty nice ring to it.

[@scottburton9701]

Bonnie's first top forty hit circa 1991-Undisputed classic!

[@Swervin309]

One of the last memories I have with my father is when he asked me to put a Bonnie Rait record on the turntable. I'll never forget him saying, "that ole gal can sing, boy!"

We had a mutual gay friend that we both loved. She asked me what I thought of A's butt. I told her I don't know. I don't think like that. I thought that was the end of the conversation but then she dragged him from the kitchen, turned him around and asked me again. I said, "He's cute." Then I noticed our boss started dropping encouraging lines about him to me every once in while. It worked. They got my attention.
