I Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Bonnie Raitt "turned down the lights" and turned up the heartache for this slow-moving 1991 electric piano ballad about unrequited love. Released as the third single from her eleventh studio album, the Grammy-winning Luck of the Draw – which was dedicated to late blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughn –"I Can't Make You Love Me" became one of Bonnie Raitt's most critically and commercially successful singles, making it to Number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, Number 6 on the Adult Contemporary chart, and getting inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in November 2016. Written by Mike Reid and Allen Shamblin, "I Can't Make You Love Me" was given the cover treatment by a number of artists including George Michael who released his version as a B-side of his 1997 single "Older." Ultimately, on "I Can't Make You Love Me," Bonnie Raitt quietly accepts her fate: "Morning will come / And I'll do what's right / Just give me 'til then to give up this fight / And I’ll give up this fight."
