Wonderful song. Joss Stone really poured her heart into this song. Trivia: This song was written by a close friend of actress Farrah Fawcett. She had told him that she had a "midnight plane to Houston" to visit her parents. It stuck in his head and he wrote this award winning song.
I wanted to say Neil Diamond but I knew it wasn't right - broke down & Googled it🤷♀️Jim Weatherly is the correct answer & I never would have guessed it anyway. Great little fun fact - thanks for sharing!
From a barefoot teenager on a small side stage at Bonnaroo to the powerhouse woman and seemingly great all around human/Mom/artist she is now, I have been lucky to be alive at the same time with another musician that moves me like Joss Stone. Thanks for the 🎶
I fell in love with this girl the moment I heard her. She may not be in the charts and in our faces but she's one of the finest female vocals in the world.
Roxy41262 she had her golden years back in the early 2000s. I remember seeing her in the magazine RECORD. I don't know if you're aware of the magazine. it was all about good music and nothing else.
I was recently sitting with some younger friends at a campfire and was finally asked what I want to hear music wise. I thought back to this awesome singer and said Joss Stone. They put her on and they all shut up in total awe. It was fn cool. New generation of admirers. They had never heard of her.
A lot of you on here don't know that Joss bought herself out of her contract as they weren't allowing her to record what she wanted the way she wanted it. She now has her own company... Truly an inspiration!!
I love this girl. She has some serious soul. No one else like her anywhere. I just love her. She captured my attention and I just fell hard for her music.
Yeah this is good. Great depth of tone. I stumbled across another version by Renee Geyer, that is my go to version of this song now. Then I found some of her other stuff. Try an album, the WHOLE album; "Difficult Woman", by Renee Geyer. A stripped back, bare bones soul masterpiece. Also, for a one off, knock your socks off song by an amateur starting out, Karise Eden; It's A Mans World.
Listening to Joss Stone and her soulful voice make me close my eyes so hard that I squeeze out the tears. It's like reliving memories I haven't even had yet.
I know you might be wondering how i came across your Profile,i saw you as someone i will like to know because your profile picture cute my attention i must say you look so beautiful
One of my favourite artists, I had the privilege of seeing her at the London Palladium last year, Joss is so talented and absolutely beautiful. This is my go to happy song, 🎵
@@StarzzyJJASD sound like a racist stereotyping who are you where are you from stop using an American app and how about go try an app your country provides or something
RU-vid has been suggesting this to me for awhile now. I looked at the thumb and thought, no way, couldn’t be that good. Finally watched it and I am just blown away and practically in love. Wow!
I love clips of her life performances. She looks so head over heels in love with what she's doing! And it's a joy to see her jamming hard to her brilliant backup singers... Joss is a rare gem :)
As 5th generation Georgian, song always has place in my heart ! thank you for version ! my only regret is my "terri" is not with me except in my heart & soul & dreams of everlasting !
What a truly fabulous singer. I was sad when she bought her contract out, and left England, but this young lady KNEW the kind of songs she should be singing, and she knew that she would never get to sing them unless she was her own manager. I am an 86 year old guy, and this is a sample of just how fantastic Joss Stone is. The pity is that we only get the scraps of her performances, I could watch and listen to her all day.
Her UK sounding speaking voice and her Deep South singing voice are so different. Thats never to sound disrespectful... cause she's amazing. Not really my type of music, but its cool to see how she (and the musicians) gracefully own it. Great Job!
I discovered Joss Stone in 2003 when I read a short blurb about her in the usual airline magazine. Later that year she was on Austin City Limits. Who has not fallen in love with her, I ask? She’s fantastic.
I have loved your voice since you began at 15! Joss has one of the best blues voices I’ve heard in a very long time! Would love to hear a duet with Pink! Joss, you’re a gorgeous woman!
She has been your favorite musician for a long time now so do I Reland , she voice is so captivating and I feel so relaxed listening to her. Reland can we be friends,I'm James nice to meet you.
Best female vocalist I've ever heard. A couple of my clients kept telling me I look like her, so I looked her up. Oh my gosh, I listen to her all the time. She's the very best.

Well done Joss ! ✌️🤓 Luv your voice & emotion that flows with your songs.👌👀 " The moment I wake up, before I put on my make- up"..this is one classic of mine,💃 u doing it absolutely beautiful.✌️🥰 U go girl ! 🏇
I fuckin love this woman's soulful essence... where did she go, who the hell took her away from today's crippled music industry, I Say Bring Her Back NOW!!!😣
People who purchase R/B albums in the US don't seem to want to purchase her music. I hear she is rather popular world wide. Economics... maybe if she did a rap album...
She is a phenomenal recording artist! But as a live performer, she has no equal!!! There is just something otherworldly about her live performances! ☮️
TOTALLY DISAGREE..Amy Winehouse was a far better performer than this lass. Amy just was a raw, pure reincarnate of the soulful singing like Billie Holiday and those soulful artists of the past that not just sang the song, BUT LIVED IT!
@@zach4590 haaa Amy Winehouse was no where as good a singer as Joss Stone..n we know she ended up not even singing as good as a bad pub singer...kate bush cyndi lauper etta james..Sam Brown wete all far superior.
Not so strange, she had a contract with a record company but decided that was not what she wanted and decided to do her own thing and bought her contract back from the record label. She did a great series on her own and traveled to many other countries to sing with other people and in other languages, so she doesn't have a huge record label backing her and constantly marketing her by getting her on all the radio stations and all the other hype.
I saw her perform in the early 2000's, and she sang with someone, and her long flowing dress and natural feet. I can't remember who she sang with, but I never forgot her voice You go girl, sing with Linda.Perry
Joss Stone has more soul than a lot of singers of her Time. HER voice is unforgettable. It's totally Amazing to me how SUCH A BEAUTIFUL Powerful voice could come from such a little person. l simply adore her,heart and soul 🙋🏽💜❣️❤️💕💞💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜❤️.
Lucky enough to see JOSS in Seattle a couple of years ago. She was absolutely brilliant; had the audience in her hands. Incredibly soulful voice; wonderful relaxed delicious delivery. A total treat. National treasure.
What a talent! And what a woman! Surely one of the most natural, unaffected and genuinely caring artists around. As is shown by this charity concert and her work supporting similar charities all over the world. Bless you, Joss. Keep giving us pleasure.
fwefew 4t4tg She's a white ENGLISH girl singing the BLUES in their most pure form. The Stones were inspired by the BLUES. I'm from NOLA, you don't know what the blues are. She sings with James Brown & Aretha Franklin....legends. And she's not materialistic, or pop. She started at 16, did you ever think her early music was forced on her by her record company? She's the OPPOSITE of slick & commercial...or she would be recognized like Katy Perry, who fits that description.
Just at the beginning 25 years ago we baptized it "New Janis Joplin" which I adore, I did not see Janis on stage (too young), but I saw Josse on stage who I also like...🥰😍
