She walked on stage, guitar in hand, and Sheryl Crow lit up like a kid meeting her hero. ‘The first woman I ever saw rock an electric guitar,’ she said—and then Bonnie Raitt proved why.

Some say they outdid Dylan himself. Watch it once, and you’ll understand why people keep coming back to this moment.

Introduction

When Sheryl Crow and Bonnie Raitt took the stage together at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Festival in 2019, something truly unforgettable happened. Their rendition of Bob Dylan’s 1989 track “Everything Is Broken” wasn’t just a tribute—it became a performance so stirring that many fans believe it outshined even Dylan’s original.

Sheryl opened the moment with heartfelt admiration, introducing Bonnie Raitt as the first woman she ever saw commanding an electric guitar. That simple introduction carried a weight of respect—and it set the tone for what would become one of the most celebrated live duets in recent memory.

As Bonnie stepped onto the stage, she exuded confidence and unmistakable rockstar energy. The two artists launched into the song with raw passion, their voices blending with grit and soul while their guitars traded riffs with thrilling intensity. It was more than just a cover—it was a reinvention born from experience, power, and mutual respect.

The response from fans was overwhelming. The YouTube comment section filled with praise for both performers, with many singling out Bonnie Raitt’s soulful delivery. One viewer wrote, “Bonnie Raitt is super gutsy… she sounds better every year.” Another chimed in, admiring her voice as “full of syrup and soul like nobody else.”

This performance was a reminder of how two legendary musicians can breathe new life into a song, making it their own while honoring its roots. Bonnie and Sheryl didn’t just perform “Everything Is Broken”—they made it soar in a way that was entirely fresh and deeply moving.
