Sorry about all the video distortion, it’s blocked. Amazing song.

There is nobody like Brandi. She puts more emotion into every word than most artists ever do across their entire careers. She does not have a bad song. Dig in!

So late to this party. Was on a road trip last weekend and this song came on - I had to pull over. The hurt gay teenager still inside of me that was pushed into walls, tripped, and tortured needed this, and I had no idea. Thank you Brandi ❤

I absolutely love how she starts bouncing up and down at the end. She knew she slayed it, left no scraps. One of the greatest Grammy performances of all time !!!!!! IMHO

She absolutely gives me ,not just hope, but joy for the future of music. Love her.

Before the show she told Jonell Monae she was really nervous about the performance. Janelle told her to pretend she's only singing to her. When the performance started, Janelle stood up and stayed up. That's the reason Brandi keeps looking to her left.

I can't not weep during this song. It's amazing. One of the most important songs.

This is great song, Elton John actually said this is one song he wished he would have written

She’s simply the best. Glad you’ve started discovering her my friend. ‘Party of One’ is also a beautiful song from this album. Cheers!

As you can hear, she’s amazing live. Have seen her multiple times and also with Pink! and let me tell you…she pours her soul out when she sings and draws yours out with her. “The Twins” in her band are just as mesmerizing.

Her cover of Joni Mitchell’s “A Case of You” is extraordinary & this is from a lifelong Joni fan.

Thanks for your real, emotional reaction to her and this song. Last summer, Brandi and the Twins were traveling around doing the Beyond These Silent Days album tour concerts and occasionally "opening" for Pink in her huge stadium shows. Two of Brandi's die hard fans were wearing Brandi shirts at one of those concerts and after Brandi performed a couple of songs, some fellow audience members nearby, wearing their Pink merch, looked at this couple's shirts and said "You knew who the real headliner of this show is, didn't you? Wow!" Brandi just picked up a couple more Grammys the other day. Watch the Highwomen's song Highwomen where they rewrote the lyrics of the Highwaymen's song to reflect the history of female heroes through the years. It'll make you cry, too.

You need to watch the official video too. It is amazing and even more emotional. I love both the Grammy performance and the video. Trust me... just go for it. Other faves are Right On Time, You and Me on the Rock and Stay Gentle

You don’t need to watch it on here but the video is worth a look because it has a lot of marginalized people singing along to the lyrics which is powerful.

She talks about this performance in her book “Broken Horse”. She. Was. Sick. Which to me makes it all the more amazing. Her book is captivating. Also her documentary on Tanya Tucker. So much!

There is definitely a point to watching the official version. It's heartbreakingly hopeful and beautiful!

Stunning, beautiful, and amazing... love this artist

Check out her Grammy performance of Right On Time

I was going to suggest you did this live version the other day Salvo! There were SO many phenomenal Female Performances that year at the Grammy's: Janae Monet, Gaga, H.E.R. but THIS was Beyond! Blew me Away!

there's an excellent rendition of this on the Howard Stern show... just her and the twins... and yes, I love love love her live stuff, but I have to say the video of this from the studio version is amaaaaazing (the people she has in the video really make it extra poignant)

Brandi and the twins are the absolute best! I’ve seen them at least 8 times, including at Red Rocks in Colorado and with Joni Mitchell at the Gorge amphitheater in Washington. They are incredible every single time, without fail. I’m a born & raised Washington kid. We’re very proud of our girl

Didn’t discover her music until very recently. This version is the first song I heard and I was a fan immediately. Beautiful voice and a gifted song writer. She also formed a female supergroup called The Highwomen. The are worth checking out as well. Their song Highwomen would be a good first song.

OMG!!! 100% A+ That was amazing.

This is a masterpiece 😭😍

About 20 years ago, I went to a nearby theater to see Vienna Teng. Brandi Carlile was the opener. I had never heard of her nor any of her music. She and the twins came out and did most of her/their first album and several songs that turned up on the second, The Story. My jaw dropped because she and the twins were so amazing. That first remains my favorite of her albums. When my mother died a couple of years later, I had to do a lot of driving. That album was my companion and comfort during those travels. I got to meet Brandi soon after when she opened for Shawn Colvin. I told her how much her music means to me. She was gracious and kind. A true artist.

I love the song she did with Tanya Tucker and Scooter Jennings. Tanya sings, Brandi plays piano. Stunning video and amazing Grammy performance.

NO! You MUST watch the official video as well. You were crying from witnessing her performing it live. You’re an empathetic man. The story told in the visuals of the video , as well as its artistry, will make you weep while smiling. PS - There’s a lot of videos of Brandi performing live with other artists like Annie Lennox, Pink, etc. They’re phenomenal.

Best live performance I’ve ever seen!

Ive watched this performance like 100 times. I love it.

I'm sure I have watched a lot of Grammies, but also missed some. To me, this is the greatest performance of all-time.

I watched this live on TV. Until then, I hadn’t heard of her. I was blown away (still am) by this performance. I immediately became a fan. She and the twins are incredible.

Still make me cry joy!

Listen to her sing Joni Mitchells "A case of you" Mind blowing! She's amazing. My favorite artist of all time. Seen her four times in concert.

just subscribed - and I never do that. thanks for all your thoughtful reactions... if you do any more Brandi in the coming months, Raise Hell (specifically the live performance from The Caverns in Pelham TN in 2018) is dynamite. I love her backstory -- how she met the twins and the life and friendship/extended family they've built...

Thanks so much for this reaction! Love me some Brandi ❤

She is a good one. We saw her live and she brought everyone into her songs. She is pretty fabulous.

The studio version and its video are worth it.

So many ways you could turn with this song, if you don't like, believe, in the way the walk is going walk alone for a while, love this song on many fronts...It's number one of many.....I am walking each day with this song until I need a new one. Madonna - You'll See (Official Video)

The studio video is beautifully done and brings tears to my eyes everytime I see it. Worth a watch.

She's just so amazingly talented. She doesn't get nearly the props she deserves.

Right on Time! Another favorite song of hers! Or Mother.

Turpentine would be a good next song to react to.

She brought the country legend Tanya Tucker out of retirement and and Tanya Tucker won a Grammy as a result. Check it out.

So beautiful 😢❤

Great reaction⭐

I'd never heard this song until a teenaged boy sang it in his AGT audition (he killed it) ... and I loved it. In fact, Brandi had him perform it with her. And I cried, too.

God, I love her

To the bullies in my childhood. Look at my life.......the joke is on them.

not only an incredible artist, the lyrics are an insperation to all !!

She's seriously incredible. No words necessary.

I love “The Eye” and she does a great cover of John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads” with Emmylou Harris. She did a supergroup album with Natalie Hemby, Amanda Shires, and Maren Morris under the name The Highwomen. The album is fantastic.

Brandi, like Joni Mitchell is a force of nature.

Watch the music video too. It will make you sob.

If this song moved you... then check out "Younger Me" by Brothers Osborne.

I can only describe Carlile as authentic!

You should watch her live with the twins with shock jock Howard stern… that’s one of my favorites.

Listen to her live cover of Joni Mitchell’s song “ A Case of You”. Only Brandi can do Joni justice on covers. Amazingly good.

For some reason, I want to hear her and Alanis Morissette duet.

Impeccable songwriting and delivery...In my opinion Brandi Carlile can do no wrong. A performance of hers that may be of interest, is a song Brandi dueted with Sam Smith on in 2018. This was before Sam Smith took off on a different musical trajectory. It truly is gorgeous....kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gtKPhMhykpewioE.html

Iirc, she wrote this after the 2016 election ❤

Where did you find the video??? I have been looking for it for months and cant find it 😢

If you want another round of straight-to-the-heart music from Brandi, there's this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mbSdopt6mcqpgXk.html

See her live. I spent 400 bucks to see her unplugged. Her and the twins... small theater. She stepped in front if the microphone, sang without it. INSANE AND WORTH EVERY PENNY.

This song ,the lyric ,Brandy you are amazing !
