WHAT AN AMAZING COVER! Kasey Chambers "Lose Yourself" Eminem Cover Live

[@andrewj4190]

4 minutes of anguish explodes into 4 minute of anger.

[@GrahamWhittaker-xo5uo]

EM was so impressed with this cover, he allowed KC to upload it to Spotify. V, V rare for Em to do this .

[@amarok9097]

In the last year I have seen Blind Guardian, alestorm, Ne Obliviscaris and Be'lakor but I Kasey's deconstruction and reconstruction of Lose Yourself one of the best songs of the past couple of years.

[@ObsidianEchoes69]

Holy….just…..what just happened? I’m honestly in tears. Thanks bro for giving this to me ❤

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

So good!

[@krisbest6405]

She can do no wrong. Proud Australian.

[@wesleygalvin9983]

Eminem made this song iconic, Kasey Chambers made it epic.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Yea this was really good.

[@ray.shoesmith]

Before anyone decides to copy/paste from other reaction vids, yes, it is her father on slide (not lapsteel) guitar; no, its not her brother Nash on lead/harmonies, its Brandon Dodd; and no, there is no evidence that Eminem has seen this version, let alone "gave his permission to put it on spotify". Eminiem doesnt even hold the rights to this song anymore, and you dont need anyones 'permission' to post covers.

[@kane29842]

Hahahaha. I’m glad other people are starting to put this down. Annoying apocryphal garbage is annoying.

[@davidcarter4247]

Chambers was required to inform the owners of Lose Yourself of her intention to put it on Spotify. She has to pay royalties and if she wants to see the song on Spotify in some countries including the US a licence is needed. It is not as simple as you imply.

[@kane29842]

@@davidcarter4247 yes. It is that simple. It’s a compulsory mechanical license. You inform (notice of intent to cover), pay the fee/royalties. Which are statutory and not negotiated, and you’re clear. I believe Spotify actually takes, or is supposed to take, care of that. Regardless, the common apocryphal sentiment in these videos of ‘it’s on Spotify, therefore he saw it and approved it’ is a complete and utter non sequitur with zero supporting evidence, and a mountain of reality against it.

[@rhondaneilly7577]

This was a reaction to a masterful performance, please just comment on that, instead of trying to dazzle with the breadth of your knowledge of music copyright legalities. The performance, guys, comment on that.

[@skyerushton3831]

Her dad is the one playing the slide guitar which I think adds an awesome layer to this song 👍

[@kylec1411]

Eminem is a genius writer and this showcases that. Shes dope. I aint a country fan much also a metal head but eminem is special. And so is this version.

[@mikeymike1843]

I don' t usually watch/listen to covers. Because why, when I can watch or listen to the original. But this kept popping up on my homepage. After a few days I thought why not, super glad I did. Awesome.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Glad you enjoy it! I see your logic with covers. But sometimes someone just pulls it off.

[@PaulEngineer]

This song is heavy in a different way... a journey that conveys Em's story, lived and transformed by the wonderful Kasey.

[@gabrielkain1]

This is a cool version of this song. She has a haunting voice, which really gives the song a different feel. The banjo makes it sound creepy, which I really dig. 10 out of 10.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Right dude, so good.

[@kennethdodemaide8678]

Best "cover" ever. Brilliant.

[@bobsawin1920]

I'm knockin the door at 60yrs old, lifelong music slave, and I'm callin this among the best live performances I've ever witnessed. Nothing touches this emotionally and the band is flawless. Aussie music scene has been very under appreciated, as has South Africas, imho.

[@kennethdodemaide8678]

@@bobsawin1920 Totally agree.

[@chrisking6667]

Hurt by Jhonny is still number 1. This is a crazy close number 2 though.

Kasey never phones in any performance. When she's feeling the emotion, the audience will know.

[@Amanda-r3t7n]

Kasey takes us on a “musical journey” by highlighting the Anthology of music. Blues. LA Rock. Metal. All while keeping a faith to Eminems beat. You can time travel on this one. 💙 🇦🇺

[@audivawalsh2983]

Kasey Chambers is an Australian legend: the youngest person to be inducted into the Australian Music Hall of Fame, a dozen albums and has more than 30 ARIA Awards (the AU Grammy's). She is beloved but is ignored by radio and was shunned by Sony. She's been performing in her father's band since she was 12 years old (her brother is backing vocals and her dad is on the steel guitar on stage here). She had some pop hits in the 90s but her heart and soul is Country in her own style. She wanted to commemorate the 20th anniversary of this song because she loves Eminem, and she had the time to rearrange and compose this masterpiece during lockdown. She is showing so much emotion because she has lived this to a degree as well. She is now 48 years old and a mother of three. This recording is the first time it was ever performed live and was done at the end of the concert. They thought it went well, so they used the recording from the sound desk and asked their fans who were in attendance to provide any footage they had to composite this one together. While there has been no public approval from Em, she has been allowed to put this song up on Spotify without copyright challenge.

[@shanegooding4839]

I love Metal and this was dope af.

[@draug7966]

Hell yes this was great. I like when someone can take an already existing song and really make it their own, and she certainly did just that.

[@GraceWicks-mm5fs]

Kasey's cover is mesmerizing! Kasey is a musical genius!

[@eleonoragiacomazzi5775]

Tommy..so glad you did this! Kasey was born in Mount Gambier...her parents and family are all in the music business...She has won numerous awards and has had many albums on the ARIA charts at no.1. She is so visceral in her performance..Check out her song ' Am l not pretty enough' She is a treasure! If you enjoyed Kasey...there are numerous Aussie artists that will surprise you!!! Take care and hoo roo! 😂🦘

Damn! That's how you do a cover. I've heard of Kasey, when I used to live in Australia, seeing her pick up many awards but musically it wasn't my thing back then.

Thanks again my man 👊🏼

[@judileeming1589]

I believe this was a performance in Newcastle just after Covid restrictions ended but Casey wanted to release the studio sound with video so athe call went out to all attendees at the concert for video of the performance which is why it doesn’t look over produced. If I have that wrong I will stand corrected. Her dad and brother in the band also.

[@mals4125]

The audio was recorded live on the night - without a real release idea in mind. But is was so good you're right she called out to every one who attended and had videoed the song to send it in, and this is what they ended up with.

[@judileeming1589]

@@mals4125 OMG live sound! My kryptonite. I feel her voice on a cellular level.

[@mals4125]

Great reaction mate. She leaves it all out there every single time - just embraces all the life, love and pain, and puts it all out there in every song. 'Ain't no little girl' - live at Bluegrass Underground is another passionate performance - though not metal, sorry - but well worth a listen.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Im a lover of music. This was great

[@Amanda-uc5jq]

I love watching people react to this song. Really enjoyed your reaction, I’m with you on not caring too much about genre, even the genre I like least I’ve found a few great songs. Kasey is the youngest female inducted into the Australian Records industries hall of fame. 😁 You won’t find other songs like this one from her which I think some people get disappointed by. People will tell you to listen to “Pretty Enough” which was her f u to radio stations who refused to play her first album “The Captain”. The album was critically acclaimed but not commercially played. I would advise something different if you get put off by nasal tones (I don’t but some do) & go for something off her “Rattlin Bones” album or “Ain’t no Little Girl” and if you still enjoy her listen to pretth enough. She has the best story telling ability through her music & voice. ❤

[@bondibois]

Calling this a cover is downplaying it. It is so much more than a copy or adaption. This is a reimagining of an already great piece. Kasey is known as an Australian pop/country artist and has received many accolades. She started in the biz as a 10 yo with the family band. Dad still plays in band with her and is playing the slide steel guitar on stage here. I expect you will get better background on Kasey from fans. Through known for her country/folk work she does cross genres and this performance really puts a spotlight on her versatility.

[@NebraskaGonvilleJones]

I just don’t get it. Decent I guess but I just don’t understand why so much love for this 🤷🏽‍♀️

To be honest its not that its an eminem song. Its got a good message, and love her passion.

[@warrensteele3619]

I REALLY like this. Easily one of the best, if not THE best cover songs I've ever heard. Do yourself a favour and don't bother looking into the rest of her stuff, it's crap Australian country rubbish and you'll be sorely disappointed. Unless you're into very ordinary Australian country music, which I'm not because it's f'ing shit!
