This is why I'm apart of the lilac Legion cuz they are that awesome I'm 55 and I've heard a lot of good music and these kids have been taught well about good music
Amazing people are still covering Janis Joplin. Shows how much of an impact she had on music. She has been dead for 51 years and still influencing people.
WOW.....was my first thought. I had chills and goosebumps for the majority of this video. Not sure where I have been but this is my first-time hearing this PHENOMENAL group of artists!!!!!! I wasn't even a glimmer in anyone's eye to see Janis IRL but grew up listening to & learning from everything that was ahead of my time. I think most music lovers consider this Era "Classic Rock" and it's always been in the top of my music favorites... Big THANK YOU to my fellow smurfette from a different mister 😉 for sharing w/ me. If you need to find me I will likely be exploring the "Liliac rabbit hole"...happily 😊 Huge thanks again to you!!
With the exception of Janis Joplin this is the absolute best cover of this song i have ever heard,,,, Melody absolutely Nails the essence of the song,,, they Kill this song
I know you don't like the word reaction, however I enjoy seeing the response from those witnessing their first watch and listen to the stage presence and that voice, it's all captivating 🤘🦇🇨🇦
I believe what makes a difference with Melody is that rather than just singing from a music sheet, she pays attention to the lyrics and reflects the emotions she feels in the words, both through her voice, her facial expressions, and her movements on stage. Sam's backing vocals are also clearly heard here (typically less audible) and complements Melody's lead nicely. LILIAC put heart and SOUL into this song!
Your absolutely right! These guys and girls allways put 110% into everything I've heard from them! And I've heard everything I can find from them, Wich is a lot over the 5 years following LILIAC! And I have to say, they just get better and better all the time! Here it is 2023 and album # 4 is coming out pretty soon and thier 4th U.S TOUR coming this year, plus another MONSTERS OF ROCK CRUISE!!! I'm thrilled for them!! Just hope I get to see them at least one time live in my life!! ✌️😎🤘 BIGFANG4LIFE HERE !!!!!!!
Janice Joplin was a unique act and so is Melody i was around for Janice and i am so glad I made it to see liliac blossom from cute buskers to super talented professionals. Individualy they have so much talent but put them together and they meld into a force to be reckoned with .for my money each one of them that has been compared to another artist is actually better than that artist or at the very least is as good as them .thank you for stepping up the frequency of your reactions, as a self confessed fangaholic it helps me get my fix .Rock on and rock hard.
Liliac are reaching the highest standards for covers. They pay much respect to the author in the same time with making it their own. They are not copying but making marvelous versions of already famous songs. Who can't do it like that better leave it. Thanks for reaction.
I got a 2fer! I love this live version. You get to see at such an early age how they love to perform. That's a rare quality and to get 5 in one family, has to be rare. I grew up listening to Janice. I saw her and her band play this many times. I love it when she brings it down to that cutzie breaking voice. Janice did that but like Janice. Melody is not Janice, however she embodies her spirt that I hear with this song. Sam does so good with the background vocals which puts me listening in my living room watching Dick Cavate(spl) and seeing Janice with her band. Great reaction. Loved you kitty and daughter too so I actually got a 3fer. Lol Stay safe. God Speed. FANG 4 LIFE! RORH 🤘🦇
Awe! I loved this comment! It’s amazing commentary like this that makes working a bit extra WORTH IT! I wish I was around to see a legend like Janis Joplin 🥺 I’ve only heard her amazing raspy, breathy voice and rebellious sounding self from her music.. and to give this young band a nod from someone like you Kenneth.. well that’s Aces in my book! #GodSpeed #FANGang #RORH I’m glad you like my “we interrupt this program” little short vids.. w me & my kids or kittens.. I love them so much! 🤘🦇
This one is unreal!!! Musically and vocally.... Speachless.. Your face says it all... Good one Kristin... Three Liliacs in one day... Love it!! Best wishes.. :)
I was never a Janis fan but this cover, by far, is Liliac's best cover. Everyone in the band is just killing it. We are witnessing greatness here. This performance, too bad it wasn't on a 1970's variety show, because it would have served notice that this band is at the level of greatness and will one day be listed with the greats-like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath.
Liliac has no fear. It is before 6 AM out here on the West Coast and am fully charged for the day after watching 2 of your freshly dropped Liliac viewings.
Again can't keep up with your reactions, but I love it. Your reaction are outstanding and also I did Subscribed to your channel a while back. This is an outstanding cover, right down to the keyboard playing. Vocals are the amazing , guitar work is next to none, bass is perfect and Abby is one of best drummers around...jmho. Family bands are awesome especially LILIAC. Cheers!
Thank-you Randy! I appreciate your sub! Once I get my kids & kittens settled in .. I GO like a 🦇 outta heck w vids... I love A AAA LOT of music 🎶 but the staple is definitely Rock 🤘😉 I can’t wait to see more from #LILIAC 🦇 #cheers
She did Janis justice. Again, I am old, I was young but alive for Janis. I was in Jr. High for that fateful couple of years when we lost so many greats. There are a few times in there you can't tell the difference. Or, you are old like me and can't remember. LOL
Love that song , Imy interpretation of the lyrics is kind of dark , like a pimp prostitute relationship that started out all love and became what it is . Listen to it again with that interpretation in your mind .
