    Whitney would've been so proud of her cousin. They always applauded each other.

    As many times as I have seen Ms. Warwick perform live--at least 12--she has never performed her first #1 pop record! This is such a treat!

      She has featured this song in her hit record medleys during her concerts. She gave it a great delivery on her triumphant 1981 Hot! Live and Otherwise set.

    Would've benefited from some backing singers. Her current voice is too weak to carry the chorus.

      Interestingly Dionne has often performed songs on TV without backing singers, especially in her early 1980s vocal prime. She has also performed collaborations like this as solos. She had a pitchy moment or two here but it was much better than I expected to hear in her current matured voice. She really came alive toward the end which makes me wonder if maybe it was a matter of not having ample rehearsal time with the musicians or sound team.

      She's in her 80's what more do you want. Only one Or two people sound almost the same in their 80's.

      I agree. Because of Chain Smoking, her voice weakened and eventually lost its stamina but still she can sing

      Sazon Man Sadly, Dionne has been crippled by financial ruin/bankruptcies so she has to keep working.

      Steve Weaver thats not true ...she only declared bankruptcy to take those back taxes out of her life...

    • @SteveWeaverIvyfield
      @SteveWeaverIvyfield Před 5 lety +1

      Christian Espedilla She has to keep working. Singers of her stature should be able to retire gracefully. She knows her voice is shot. No-one of her age and experience should ever have to keep touring like she does. It’s crippling - the travel/jet lag/down time/ever changing diet/interrupted sleep pattern/physical and mental demands. I know this because I road managed a group for 20 years, travelling the world with them.

      Whatever her situation, she deserves respect! Everyone who knows, knows she can sing! Her, still performing nowadays is a real treat, for real.
