I absolutely loved Janis. She was my era. I was a young tennager when I first heard her. There will never be another Janis. She was awesome. She had so much soul and you just couldn’t help but love her and I still listen to her and still love her . The Beautiful Rose ♥️🌹♥️

I heard her when I was 14, three years later she died. She touched my soul,all these years later no singer has ever taken her place in my heart. Singers will come and go, Janis will never go.

To me she was true and raw, just like the blues. So much soul,RIP my queen of rock and blues

A no bullshit woman and a great singer,humble,kind,caring and had been very hurt.I wish I could have helped her

It's definitely one of the best female singers of all time. It's undisputable.

Another great singer that we lost to drugs, What a shame!

My heart always went out to Janis cause she was searching for something she was never ever to obtain..Someone to love her for her..

I didn’t know much about her until a few months ago. I saw her Monterey pop performance and I was in AWE! Now I’m obsessed with her, her soul, her spirit. I feel like she’s my best friend now ❤

Beautiful perso. Poured everything in her music..I was 10 when it anounced on radio turned on to her by my sister still is what I listen to

Janis Joplin is a real singer!!! Janis the best groovy woman of all time!! gone too soon....rip...miss u always!!!!!!!

I wish there were more people like her that put their everything into the music and didn't just see it as a paycheck

Her technique was impeccable and she made it sound easy. Anybody else ever tried to sing Janis knows how much energy she gave. And while some of the people like they probably sound and runs and all that, Janis was authentic ... could feel her pain and her soul when she performed.

Actually that debut album was first released on Mainstream Records in 1967. Columbia then re-issued it in 1971 after Janis' death.

It is to bad that they didn't have rehab centers back then for celebrities like they do today. We lost way to many during the late 60's and 70's. It did keep me from doing the drugs. I wish i would have kept saying No . I walked into that bizarre door in March 79. Just Say No. Find a more positive ways to deal with the stress and more. I have been to the Motel, 3 blocks north of Hollywood blvd

2019, stil love you, Janis!!!!

Wow! I never knew that, I share the same date of birth with Janis. I was also born on January 14, though in a different year. You just gotta love Janis. Such a beautiful soul and a great singer. Arguably the best of all time.

This vid deserves more views ❤️❤️❤️❤️

WHAT SHE WAS AMAZING AND ALWAYS WILL BE............

RIP Janis, she's part of the 27 Club, she died only at age 27.

One of my favorite singers.

She was one of a kind. There will never be another like her in my life time!!!!

Love that she gave credit to those who inspired her ..shes awsome

Jim Morrison said he was next he was right. He lived until July 3rd 1971 almost a yr later he was born in nov of 43

Powerful voice!!

I love Janis's Kozmic Blues album... A lot of her fans arent too keen on it but it has grown on me through the years. A lot of historians like to make Janis out to be this miserable blues singer when she wasnt. She knew what she was doing and she knew the consequences. I'm sure she was bi-polar or one of those diseases they didnt really know about in 1970. God I wonder what her career and life would have been like if she lived. ??

Just love her still. My heart hurts 💔💗💞💓

She was born on January 19th 1943. Come on Watchmojo get your facts right!

I'm comfortable saying she's the all time greatest. Plus, the coolest.

She put heart and soul in her music to bad she died so young

The damage to Janis was done in childhood all she wanted was to be accepted and all the kids, for the exception of a few treated her like garbage. The mental damage from that created the gateway that led to her early death. She was a very fragile soul and the bullying destroyed her in her childhood. So very sad. R.I.P. Janis.

Whats the song at 2:35

***Will someone please help me out? I could've sworn that I watched a video of Janis Joplin singing a song that had the words, "Pretty little thing let me light your candle". I thought she sung that song before the Black Crows, then they did a cover of her song. Now I can't seem to find the video that I saw before. I can't find it anywhere. I've been looking for 2 hours now. Maybe I'm just getting it confused with something else?

One of a kind .. love her!

This needs to be re uploaded

Voz linda e carreira curta msm assim já virei fã ❤️

I almost died on Oct 4th after living across the bridge from the Landmark Inn I left & went to De Santos where Pearl used to live upstairs then to the Chelsea Hotel where the new owner wouldn't let me check in & then back to De Santos to work on my new band & new script!

The film the Rose starring Bette Midler, was loosely based on Janis Joplin's life.

I Love Her💓😎

janis ,one of the kind ,simply great

I was born Oct 3 1970 11:45 pm on that Saturday night when she was passing away. 😔

Well she is my favorite! I absolutely love her

Chris spoke very well of Janis. He meet her only one time in 1968.

Yeah right an what country do u come from

R.I.P Queen

Janis Joplin was born on January 19, 1943, not 14. I have the book Pearl and it also says the 19 on obituaries and Vh1 Behind the Music. I'm 42. I did a term paper on her in college. Most fun I ever had writing a paper in my life.. I didn't do drugs but being 20 and reading some of the pranks she pulled in and after high school were eerily similar to some things I did with my friends. For example, Janis and her friends dragged a "Men at Work" construction sign away from the sight and stood it up right outside a well known Texas Whore house brothel.. Before I did this report or knew this, it was a week before Halloween and a friend of mine and I went through her mom's chest of costumes and found a red 1920's flapper dress. I ended up losing a coin toss and wearing it. We pinned up my long blonde hair into a bob cut and walked across town to a train station in PA that was once upon a time a whore house. For about a hour every time a train was done boarding or passing through I twirled around and posed in full costume waving at the passengers.

Imo, it’s better to live a full and happy short life than a long and miserable one. Janis lived life to the fullest.

That's my idol love her

@KelliFilkins Janis sang with a FIVE octave soprano voice. Can you do that? I dont think so. And dont even ask if I can. Im a contralto. Janis is the queen. So,,,shut up.

Jim Morrison is next like10 months younger but died like 10 months later but born like 10 months later. So sad he said he was next

Alright, only one minute in and already a huge mistake : she was born on the 19th of january 43 (and not on the 14th)

KelliFilkins: You have a right to your opinion, but you had to be there. You're obviously much too young to appreciate her. Also, please learn to spell before you post. If you had half of Janis' soul you might understand.

10/4/70: joplins death 10/4/10: ThE LiFe aNd cAreer oF JAnis Joplin

Why does youtube keep suggesting videos about parents that dont pay child support ?

Buy a one shilling Nigri to cilcus who is Delaney Lynn Joplin

So sad that during that era the artists were doing heroin. So many died if an overdose. Probably not intentionally but the underlying reason due to unhappiness. So much to live for but so unaware of it.

I love Janis but I hate alchohol.I don't care what she did I still think she's the greatest singer ever

WatchMojo.com , seriously. Do research. Her birthdate is January 19, 1943. Not January 14.

@anthony3169 She didn't intentionally overdose. It was a bad mix of Heroin. Although the drugs are basically suicide... Yeah.

JANIS joplin

@chinapoochbitch it was the 60s who wasn't high on drugs?? :P

Big Brother was a great fit for her as neither were polished and what a unique power sound they had. The cosmic stuff was too canned and that just was not Janis. Wish she had stayed with Big Brother and seen what they would of come up with next.

She was born January 19th

Not gonna lie. Shes lovely.

incorrect Birthday!.....her DOB is January 19, 1943....not January 14!....GEEZ!....get it right for Chissake!

Janis Joplin I liked her music or girl was saying among blooms good singer she was the best I've really enjoyed her music 1969 wasn't my error 1970 1980 1990 were my error or her music I like I don't know why she commits suicide she everything going in Her life to shame she had a true that terrible

she born 19th January

I don’t think that first song is The Kozmic Blues...

This woman was a force. How dare you call her a chick? This force of nature endures forever.

anyone that didn't have permission for Janis Joplin songs is getting sued you understand me to 224 every time that you have every bezel and every piece of jewelry every worldly possessions that you own

1/19th!!!

I wonder if she did self harm when she was younger.

U

She looks like Ozzy

Another victim of the 27 curse.

Sadly, Janis Joplin died 50 years ago of a heroine overdose in her hotel room. She died alone. She was twenty seven years old, an addict, unmarried, and had no children of her own. All that survives is her music. It is all she will ever be remembered for. Her life is a story is heartache and loss and indulgence. It ended in an early grave. Don’t follow Janis’ example. This is not the way to live; it is certainly not the way to die. Ave Maria.

Big Brother was a poorly musically trained group. Janis needed better Guitarists

There's a difference between singing and screaming lyrics. To me Janis Joplin did not sing. This is considered white noise.
