Totally agree with every word Susan and Kimberlini said ! .. The cream of the world's singers have had a crack at this, but Bonnie brings me to tears almost every time I hear her heart-wrenching original version of this brilliantly written song ..The video of her is just perfect too .. Can see and feel her pain .. Wayne

This is a more emotional version. The cry in her voice gives me the chills, and brings tears to my eyes.To love someone so deeply and know that they will never feel the same way, is so tragic. And the fact that she realizes it, but still wants one last night together before letting him go. Been a fan of Bonnie Raitt's for a long time. She has the kind of voice that makes you sit up and listen. She doesn't just sing the song, she lives the song, if that makes sense. Thanks!

Love both versions, but Bonnie's is my favorite. Bonnie Raitt is so talented. Bruce Hornsby piano is just beautiful. Her music has country, blues, rock, r&b and gospel influences. You mentioned in the video that her voice was so emotive. Maybe because she is an alto like Karen Carpenter. They have type of voice that is relatable and pure, and does not distract from the lyrics and the feeling. Bonnie does sing different styles in her music.

Nice Fact - this song was written by Mike Reid. He was an All-American football player at Penn State. won both the Maxwell and Outland Trophies, and is in the College Football Hall of Fame. He was an accomplished pianist who graduated with a degree in music. Then he played in the NFL with the Bengals, earning two Pro Bowls. Since retirement he has had a long and accomplished musical career. Besides this song for Bonnie, he also wrote "There's A Stranger In My House" which Ronnie Milsap recorded and it won a Grammy for Best Country Song. Artists All - love the originals!!!

Glad you've discovered Bonnie! She's one classy, talented lady :-) This was written by a couple of country songwriters, one of the best songs ever, imho. Plus, Bonnie's the kind of musician who's paid her dues and all the other musicians want to work with - the piano you liked so much was her buddy Bruce Hornsby, another of the same class. She supported him on his "Rainbow's Cadillac" like he did for her in this song. I love his playing because it reminds me of how my dad played - here's a live performance where she appears kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q7mIgq6mnZOvlYk.html One of her most well-known songs is "Let's Give Them Something to Talk About", which you would like, very sassy ;-) Another female singer with lots of rasp in her voice is Melissa Etheridge, whose "I'm the Only One" and "Come to My Window" are always on my playlists. I continue to enjoy your reactions! You've got great taste and a fun personality, very real....came for the PTX, but often I'm not drawn to the rest of what reactors create...you keep making me want to watch your other stuff because it's all so darn good - thank you!!

Piano by Bruce Hornsby. I first heard this song as I was flying from SFO to Paris. Long trip (and first time to Europe). I heard it on the plane's music channel. I stayed glued to the channel to listen to it 3 or 4 times during the trip. It touched on a part of my life so strongly. The loss of someone I loved to another was extremely painful. Good news is that we have become close in the decades since. You never how things turn out.

Hey Matt, something I use to do in my youth, was when I heard a oft covered tune, I would seek out the various artists and compare and contrast. My favorite was a J. D. Southern tune,"Love has no Pride". Bonnie did it, Linda Ronstadt, and a little known singer with a huge voice, Tracy Nelson. Even if you don't react on your channel, you should check them out. Another song was a Bruce Springsteen song, "Blinded by the Light", done by Bruce and also Manfred Mann's band. Both are outstanding. Lastly, "American Woman", originally by the Guess Who, was covered by Lenny Kravitz.
