Brilliant. They both deserved Emmys for this performance. And NEITHER we ever on Motown!!
Just once in my lifetime I would like to feel that energy onstage and a huge standing ovation 💭
I think this was the first time as a kid that I was introduced to Patti. From then on, I was a fan. She to' that song UP!
Same!
BOTH brought their A-game and completely blew away this performance. Note for note was equally matched, and that ain't easy cause MS Patti can blow..
