Joan Osborne - "To Make You Feel My Love" Live (2003)

"from Sausalito, CA 2003 - To Make You Feel My Love (Bob Dylan) - Joan Osborne (One Of Us, St Teresa, Right Hand Man, How Sweet It Is, Breakfast In Bed, Relish, Righteous Love...Bob Weir, Grateful Dead, Phil Lesh); musicians: Billy Ward, Jack Petruzelli, Tracy Wormworth, Andrew Carillo"

There are too many songs covered by Joan Osborne on RP right now. Actually, there is just too much Joan Osborne for my liking. However, the upcoming Church track will right the ship.

Reality check. Not free internet radio. This station is listener supported. So if you think it is free, so be it. Kinda of like going to church and never dropping money in the plate.

Bill and Rebecca ask for our money so they can play music that we listen to. Part of that "subscription" is the right to bitch and moan and complain about the songs we think are crap. And also rave and praise the songs we love.

I give them a fair amount of money. More than what I would give sirius or XM. And in my honest "I paid for it" opinion, this song is lame.

Woof. Some folks git pritty uppity about their opinions. Reality check: free internet radio with an exceptional playlist 99% of the time. My opinion: as with every open-source project it will get better with input and feedback, but there are some pretty harsh words being thrown about. If you think Joan missed with this one, so be it. But she gave it a shot according to her lights. And to the person who asked "Why did she bother?", I suspect because she liked the song and wanted to sing it and hoped that others would like it, too. "Why did she bother?" How does a comment like that help anything? Why does anyone bother?

Go RP. Go Bill. Go Rebecca.

I think that Joan is trying to sound like Emmylou Harris.

Thats not her style nor her strengths...Her voice needs to be in some song where she can let loose and be more edgy. Leave the folk to Emmylou Harris, Patti Griffin, and Gillian Welch.

So I'm having this flashback to this girls apartment a long time ago; she invited me over and was playing something like this, and she made me some tofu concoction for dinner and some herbal tea, and started to come on to me and....

"Well I, um, I promised my friends I' would meet the for a beer down at the Ruckus Room, uh...gotta go!"

I use to think that this song was artist proof. Clearly I was wrong. Someone please upload the Trisa Yearwood version. Yes I did say Trisha Yearwood.

Nice. I like.

Ditto!
If you're gonna play a cover of a great song, play a great cover! Luka Bloom's cover is MUCH better than this version! What's the attraction here?
