No one sings this better than Jennifer Holliday. No one. She is perfect in this song.
I saw this cast in1982 in NYC. I was in front balcony and in the end it was like she was singing to me. You could see the pain and the crazy. I cried.
A great experience!
Wow bc she sang that song with her chest for real I love Ms. Jennifer Holliday
Kathy....40 years ago! U lucky!!
Wow! I discovered this vid maybe 15 years ago and was completely blown away. I can only imagine experiencing it live!
Thanks!. Rip, nell carter & our aids brethren. Peace.
Jennifer Holiday the original Dream Girl no one can match her Tony winning performance.
It’s guttural and raw
People were not prepared for this when she first performed this on Broadway. The performance brought the house down.
Watching Jennifer Holiday perform this is akin to a religious experience ... it's like being in church and getting happy in the spirit.
And THAT is why this song is such a difficult number, few can follow that performance!! The emotion is truly moving!!
Jennifer is from Houston Texas I grew up with her when she was a lead singer in the community choir, people made fun of her back in the day because of her size and she always wore wigs. But who is laughing now she is a legend now !!!! Actress , singer Humanitarian
This is a piece of history here. This is one of the most memorable broadway shows. Jennifer Holiday and then Jennifer Hudson both saaaaang this song❤️
Can you imagine being there on opening night, what a moment to never forget. She literally brought down the house.
@@brucekislow1690 Mind blowing I’m sure
My aunt saw it when it came out. She said imagine this video 100 times louder and 1000 times more intense. She said that the whole theater and everybody else was vibrating, shaking and fainting, shouting, screaming and crying. She said she never experienced nothing like it since.
@HeeeyOhaji😏 Imagine she singing a cover of Joe Cocker's version of With a Little Help From My Friends.
Dreamgirls was the 1981 production broadway play based on the girl group The Supremes berry Gordy Motown. The actress is Loretta Devine you just called her name along with the other actress Sheryl Lee Ralph. Jennifer Holiday has powerful voice all the actress can saaaang. Jennifer was only 22 I’ve been hearing this song ever since I was 14 when this came out. I’m 54 so yea this never gets old
OMG...imagine doing this LIVE 8x a week!!! Just incredible!!!!!!!!!!
I had the privilege of hearing Jennifer Holliday perform this twice, once in Dreamgirls and again at a charity event. I cry every time she sings this.
This is perfection. No one wanted to follow this performance! This is the reason to go to Broadway. Although no other show will match this. Singing and acting. Raw power and emotion.
One thing that is often overlooked is how young Jennifer Holliday was at the time. She is the original vocalist of this song and others have tried to replicate her performance until Jennifer Hudson took it on.
Right, she was in her early twenties SAAANGGGGINNNGGGG to the Gods! Her voice reminds me that God is definitely real!
There really are no words to describe the level of amazement this song is.
Singers back then KILLED everyone. They didn't need microphones.
She’s The Original Dream Girl
This is the original Dreams Girls
Her voice just goes right through you
This was ranked one of the best performances on Broadway of all time! It is literally iconic and brought the house down night after night!
You got the feeling, young man 👍🔥 if you don't get chills from a Powerhouse voice like that, you probably aren't breathing. 😅 Loved your honest and genuine reaction 💞
Can you react to Vesta Williams- congratulations
Jennifer Holiday's version is still chilling to this day. Good Lord.
😂❤️Your face through this whole reaction was perfection. I can’t imagine jumping into Dreamgirls and Jennifer Holiday with no warning. Honestly this performance is so beautiful it makes me bawl every time I hear it. Thank you for such a pure reaction.
As someone who’s been obsessed with the musical “Dreamgirls” since I was kid, watching your reactions is priceless! 😂 I’m always glad to see someone appreciate the greatness that is this show, and specifically Miss. Jennifer Holliday! She is one of the best to ever grace a Broadway stage. The only thing better than this performance is hearing her sing this live, which I’m proud to say I was lucky to do… ❤️
I feel the same way. I watch reactions to her singing this all the time. Love seeing people see her for the first time.
The look on your face was priceless. It was as if you were imagining someone singing that you in real life and meaning it. It was Jennifer Holliday singing the song. She is a powerhouse and her vocals are extraordinary. Thanks for the reaction. This play was on Broadway for a long time and it was made into a movie. Beyonce was in it but Jennifer Hudson had the Jennifer Holliday role in the movie.
The look on your face while watching this "young buck"...is pricless.
G.O.A.T even Whitney couldn't match this 🔥🔥🔥🔥and Whitney is to me the greatest ever RIP LEGEND 😢😢😢
I saw this on broadway and I was blown away by ms. Holloway's performance. With the acoustics in this theater and her powerful voice, it felt like the song wrapped around you. The audience stood before she even finished, anticipating the final note, then the ovation began, with thunderous applause and cheers.
They don't have singer like that anymore, the hardest song to sing. All natural ✨ 😍
This was the best Broadway musical (play) back in the day, I wanted to see this play when I was young back in 1982, (yes I’m telling my age 😊) Jennifer Holiday gave me chills every time I would hear her sing this song. I’m glad to see you react to broadway musicals. You should check out more musicals, especially any song from play Hamilton” I promise you will not be disappointed. Great reaction to Dreamgirls’ show stopping song. 😊👍🏼
He is such a little cutie.
Loretta looks absolutely gorgeous
Okay! This was an incredible performance and your reaction, oh Honey, was nothing short of priceless! The look on your face was the definition of "Gobsmacked"! #jenniferholliday #shawnytv
Her huge voice is remarkable. Loved you were mezerized.
This performance is from the 1982 Tony Awards. And the best performance ever. Jennifer Holliday made music in the 80s, 90s, and even today. See has R&B songs and she also has Gospel songs!
I think it’s a recording from the play; I don’t think that’s the Tony performance. I noticed subtle differences.
@@brynneholt1990 czcams.com/video/K5QR_EBKWpg/video.html
I'm gonna give you 2 thumbs up because you're the 1st person doing these reactions to play the whole scene from that play
U not the only one who gets the chills hearin her beautiful voice.
Jennifer Hudson also gives me the chills singing this song just does such a great tribute to the original.
I know it sounds bad, but I’ve never gotten the chills from Hudson singing it. Only from Holiday. Having said all that, I think that few people can even touch Hudson so it’s not shade to her. It just doesn’t hit me the same way.
@@bdhu2001 No it doesn't sound bad. I personally have a different and good emotional experience from both. To me, they are like two different songs.
Listen to Jennifer Holliday sing
This is the Moment
Off the chart sanging!!!!!
This is the most PURE reaction video ever. The fact that this is all new content for you and you seem so fascinated and awakened, lol. The look in your eyes is saying theatre has accomplished it mission, once again! Beautifully captivating! Thank you for doing this video!
I love to see young people react to classic art...they missed out on so much true talent
Good God she's amazing. Jennifer Hudson does an amazing version of this too, but still there is no comparison to the legendary voice of Jennifer Holliday. I would never have gone to see a musical or broadway production when I was younger, and now I can't get enough of them. The singing is just off the chain. if you ever have an opportunity to go see a musical or a broadway show, do it. It will change your life.
You may know her from Ally Mcbeal, she was soloist on the church screens. She also gone gosple and club music.
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Yes that's Jennifer holiday and she has a most recent song out Call (So in love) I seen this play its so darn good, And Jennifer Hudson and beyonce did the movie call dream girls. But Jennifer holiday is the original singer Of am I telling you. But go check out Jennifer Hudson's version It's powerful
I was just out of college when I first saw this very performance (at the Tony Awards) LIVE on TV. I was STUNNED. And I was stunned and astonished once again watching it now. Wow.
Yes, Yes and YES!!!! I had the honor of seeing Jennifer Holliday perform this in the early 80’s on Broadway when she was in the original cast; my uncle took me to see the matinee; we had no money so we were in the standing section; I will have that memory forever ❤❤. Afterward, I would belt this out in my room, now, I belt it out in the car 😂. So fortunate to grow up in NYC.
I saw her and the original cast on Broadway, too in 1981. My Auntie and I took a trip to New York and I told her we had to see this new show called Dreamgirls. During the intermission she asked 'How did you know to see this?" I told her I saw Michael Jackson raving about it on Entertainment Tonight. Good times! Great show. Great memories.
Maaaaan, this brought tears to my eyes 😢😢❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Exhausting , Painful yet Brilliant performance! WOW.
Lord that woman can sing n hit vocals sitting down lord ❤ amen
that was gut wrenching, complete with a zombie walk... Idk how she did it daily and sometimes twice (matinee shows) this can never be duplicated..please react to another broadway sensation Stephanie Mills singing "Home" Live at the Apollo, you'll be lost for words...again.
Glad you enjoyed that. It is history. Yes it is Jennifer Holiday and she has much more.
It's so improbable to hear an angel sing. I had never felt a soul singing. However, I had already heard an Aretha Franklin, an Ella Fitzgerald...🙏
Bro I had chills the whole time she sang 😭🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
She was in her early 20s during this play. She's amazing
This is one of the most difficult songs to sing...so awesome!
She sang a lot of songs
She my favorite singer of all
This is the original, Jennifer Hudson started in a movie about her, Beyoncé with in the movie too, but yea Jennifer played her and say TF outta that song😩💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You should know this song from the movie with Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson. This was the original play from 1982. I was 13 and wanted to see this play so bad as a kid. When this song was released as a single it went to number 1 on the R&B charts that year.
Goose bumps every time. Chills everywhere
I saw that when it aired, in mono, on an old Zenith TV. I was blown away.
Could you react to Betty Buckley Memory at the tony awards? She was a powerhouse in her time on Broadway
You can hear her voice in Robert Townsend’s The Five Heartbeats. She was the choir soloist, Touched By Angel, The Love Boat, Alley McBeal, she also recorded I’m On Your Side, she’s performed at Show Time @ The Apollo,
This is a terrific song from a terrific musical. If you can't catch the stage show, the movie is terrific as well.
I'll be damned if I chase after any man 😂 but this was 10/10🔥🔥🔥
I agree, but I think she did because she was pregnant and kicked out if the group and the man left her for someone else. Couldn't be me. I'm going to sing Fantasia's Free Yourself and keep it moving.
Ur reaction was priceless. She is talented.
This is a classic now you got to react to Dreamgirls version from jennifer hudson till this day Jennifer holiday still sings like this till this day
Thanks, cutie. Peace.
Glad you cracked that door open for the vocalist's from back in the day. This is just one of her popular songs. " I am love", is a banger, and so is " I'm on your side ". She was and a few others that knew how to sang. Check out " Home ", by Stephanie Mills, sha was from back in the day too. Btw, you go need to put on your seatbelt for this one. Lol
"I Got Love" - from Purlie, sung by Melba Moore. Another gobsmacking performance.
Hey Shawny! Yes, that's Jennifer Holliday playing the role of singer, Effie White in the Broadway musical "Dreamgirls". Have you ever seen the MOVIE "Dreamgirls" with Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy, Beyonce, Danny Glover, etc? If not, check it out. It will give you a better understanding of what was going down to get to this point. Jennifer Hudson plays Effie in the movie. Peace...✌🏽
What a fantastic performance! This was incredible.
Yes it was, I believe all of these actors are still around today
The One, The Only. Another Legendary Queen! Yes! She Sang This, and then Jennifer Hudson also sang this too. But nothing like the original!
You must be talking about the movie 'Five Hearbeats' that was her singing Amazing Grace in the background during
funeral scene in the movie.
I was fortunate enough to see "Dreamgirls" in 1983, when I was 17. I don't think I breathed through this entire song. I had connections that got me backstage afterwards and had the cast autograph my program, so of course I still have it. It has my fingerprints forever etched into it, because I was clutching it so hard and sweating so profusely through this scene!
Now I want to see the cast of the movie Dreamgirls.. The original was 🔥 and the movie cast did it justice. 🔥
Shawn U've heard this song before. They have played it on the Radio since I was a kid. Over and Over and Over and Over for YEEEEEEEEEEEEEARS til even now they still play it.
On competitions females and males have sung this song. So u've heard it before.
One of the best performances ever!!! Check out Cynthia Erivo in The Color Purple. The song is I’m Here !!
The great Loretta Devine and Sheryl Lee Ralph love them. Ms. Jennifer Holliday put her foot and toes.
Your reaction is priceless! 😂 I remember this musical came to DC when I was about 18, but I couldn’t afford the theater ticket. The Movie with Jennifer Hudson is ok, but doesn’t really do it like Jennifer Holiday.
Yessssssssss, she does have other hits. Please check out "I am loved" also "Iam changing"
Man I thought that JHud owned this song but she is like a mouse singing it compered to big mamma Jen damn that is a powerful voice ,how the hell have I never seen this woman before.
🔥🔥🔥 This is what's missing in today's music. Jennifer Hudson blew this out of the water as well. Powerful, powerful voice🔥💯 Great reaction 👍🏾
Some of Jennifer's other songs are "Just Let Me Wait" and "Giving Up" which many think is a cover of Donny Hathaway, but actually Gladys Knight and the Pips made it first (to my knowledge). Also "I am Love" and "I'm on Your Side".
His reactions are very natural I love it ! Do more please
Your face was priceless the entire time.
Did you see the movie of Dreamgirls? This is the Broadway original version! The movie version had Jennifer Hudson in the role of Effie.
Holliday reminds me of Patti LaBelle.
Now this was sooooooo Inspirational And Joyful. The Singing Was Just OUTSTANDING!!. And I Can See Why You Mentioned The Movie The WIZ. Because That Singing Style Was In The Movie. But Not With Jennifer Holiday. Now You Might Be Thinking About The Woman That Played The Mama On The TV Show "What's Happening." Her Name Was Mable King. Their Voices Are Similar But Jennifer Is The Better Singer.
You should see her on American idol years later as a guess it was omg amazing
You were completely adorable the whole video. 😂🥰😂
Like they say "Showbiz ..Sister Showbiz". You can be replaced no matter who you are....The Show Must Go On...LOL
I still tear up every time I see her perform this song. Fire!
That was Jennifer Hudson in the movie dream girls staring Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson, Jamie Fox and Eddie Murphy Or You might have saw Will Smith Willie Smith Lip syncing it on the fresh Prince Of Bel-Air
Absolutely Awesome 👏🏾 Thanks for this Sir
This song….both performances (Holiday and Hudson) make me cry every time. Just stunning!!
I saw this at the muny saw this song live. It just changes something in you and I hope everyone gets the chance I did, because this song is like the Calamarti Inkantation in real life.
GREAT REACTION 👍
That look on your face towards the end was priceless 😂
Jennifer Hudson sang this song in the movie dreamgirls. Beyonce was also in the movie it came out in 2006
They aint got shit on JH
I understand if you haven't seen something, you haven't seen something, but i LOL when you said "oh, so this is a little play or something." Get ready to get your mind blown.
Great reaction. You just brought me back years. I saw Dream girls on Broadway in New York City with Jennifer Holliday in 1982 it's was the best experience to watch live she was amazing.
