When I first heard "If You Asked Me to" was one of those songs that make you stop in your tracks when you first hear it. I still remember the first time I heard the song, I was like, "HOLY CRAP!!! WHAT A HIT!!" I still can't believe it never hit. So wrong! I still listen to it over and over all these years later.
Patti should have been even bigger than she is currently. She is so real and has a beautiful voice. I love this hairdo on Joan. This is when she was her most stylish. I wish she hadn't gotten the cheekbones.
Wow! I never heard her speak this way about herself. What a great interview. One thing she has is an electrifying presence on that stage, and longevity like she said. I always felt Patti wasn’t given her full due, when she is just as great as Aretha! The Kennedy Center still hasn’t honored her excellent work and I’m sure people have nominated her for years. She will always be a Queen in the Black community!
I think it was Madonna. This episode was in 1990 so mariah carey hadn't come out til like the spring of 1990. She wouldn't be at an awards show this early on meaning the same year her album was released.
She was right about longevity! 65yrs in the business and still on fire today! 🔥
She never give herself enough credit… Godmother you are and been a Superstar/Icon
One thing she said its true, she will be here(longetivety) and she said this bsck in 1989....35 years later...shes still here!

It was an amazing song.
Patti's personality is GOLD. She got better looking with age. She was so beautiful inher 40s and 50s and now 80s still beautiful.
0:46 patti was MAD MAD! Damn i never seen her this upset foreal. "Ray charles can see that! Honey i know the answer!" 😂😂😂 Somebody got fired that day
She sang it 10 times better than Celine Dion
And she's sad, Celine sold the song 10 times
Delutional, both equally great
@@mandyno5328 Patti KICKED her ass! Really!!!
@@mandyno5328LEARN TO SPELL
@@TheDTJ73 both equally great
Then why celine version more success if its so bad?
Did Madonna step on her foot? LOL
Yes, it should have been a hit. It is my all time favorite song.
It wasn't??... News to me.
#1 hit. I think it was like #6 on rnb charts

Cheek bones?😮
She did not get no cheekbones done only thing she had done with her nose. If you have the receipts to show about the cheekbones then show us.

It was a R&B top 10 hit and it was a contemporary hit it just wasn't a big hit on the pop scene which it should have!
If you asked me to IS A #1 BEAUTIFUL SONG!❤
I was not expecting her to have such a deep conversation with Joan Rivers. Wowww
Ikr. Very interesting. Very good
I ran out and bought that cassette ❤
Omg❤🎉
Thanks for uploading and sharing this with us all ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
Madonna
Not she snatched her up 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
From 4:40 to 6:00 is the most double Gemini moment ever. ♊️ Joan, May 24, 1933, and Patti, June 8, 1944. Very similar ladies.
That song did turn out to be a Legend.❤❤❤❤
Patti 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤
Pattie was about 45 years old here.
It was Madonna
🥰😍😘🥰
Celine Dion wasn’t even heard of back then
In USA, but Celine was already popular in Europe by then
She was an international star first.
It was Mariah Carey she wrong for that
I think it was Madonna. This episode was in 1990 so mariah carey hadn't come out til like the spring of 1990. She wouldn't be at an awards show this early on meaning the same year her album was released.
Definitely not Mariah whom she considers as her god-daughter. It was Maddona
@50CCSHUN This was aired in 1989, so it couldn't be Mariah
Madonna sweetie
Was Madonna. It’s in her book as well
