Damn! Patti sang the shit out of this. She totally acknowledged that happy choir member, but she had to stay focused. Looked like Patti was thinking, I love ya baby, but I ain't hardly about to fuck up this song playing with you. Lol
I remember I sang this song in school like how she did in the concert just not with the hair and piano and organ dress and all that stuff and my choir fucked up the song because they started singing Lean On Me I was pissed off
Its 4 am and I cant stop watching this video and I thought the somewhere over the rainbow (with red dress on) was her best performance ever but wow every 1 is lol
ah, those were the good ol' days....the mid-80's Patti. You knew if she showed up live, with that chicken bucket on her head, she was gonna sing a hole thru a wall. Back in the day, when I went to see her, 2 aspirins, one joint and 2 shots of tequila and I was good to go. I left her concerts felling "Mighty Real". Everybody else got the Holy Ghost at her concerts but they left with a headache...word to the wise, you gotta be prepared when you go see the woman live.
omg omg omg i love this lady SOOO MUCH patti labelle will always be my idol until the day i die.........no singer will ever be like her (NEVER) <3 LOVE U PATTI........ U ARE MY WORLD <3 <3 <3
that choir person at 3:25 can't believe it, can she?! this is amazing! i only wish there were a bigger number of contemporary performers who could do this kinda thing as oppose to relying on pyro and a million and one dancers on stage behind them!
Patti looks the best she's ever looked here - smoking hot!!!! What a power house - vocally no one can touch her. And to top it off she's an amazing humanitarian. I hope she's a guest on American Idol this year. Patti should have sang at the inauguration!
She should be asked to sing this song for the OBAMA Presidental inaugrational and sing this LIVE in New York Yankee Stadium for the World to hear !! America is here and here to stay !!
This is an awesome video by the Queen !! I saw this live and it was awesome !!!!
This should be the theme song for the OBAMA presidental theme song and Patti should be asked to perform this LIVE in Yankee Stadium for OBAMA ...who will be our next President !!
What an incredibly powerful voice without limit - I wonder if she lives as strong as she sings. The words to this song are so very powerful...somehow I think she understands the power found in words and music. May she be blessed and touch lives through her music.
Only someone, like Patti, can control a stage like this. Patti is in her natural element on a stage, and she uses it like no one else can. Patti blesses all of us with her incredible voice and musicianship. I have never loved a performer the way I love her.
Muchisimas gracias Miss Patti por darnos musica y canciones con mucha inspiracion, energia, y fuerza. Su voz increible es un gran regalo de Dios. Que Dios le bendiga mucho!
A true trail blazer that played by her own rules and did not conform to the twisted desires of the music industry! Patti LaBelle did it all HER WAY! From the futuristic hair styles, the fever pumps, the outrageous makeup, and the LARGER THAN LIFE VOICE!! She is truly GOD'S TRUMPET!! Play on Patti, and keep working those pumps, I have never seen another singer work pumps as hard as you do, Baby I could have sworn that I saw flames and sparks coming from those PUMPS!!
I love her at 2:55 . . .Those legs were moving....YES this would be a great song for The inauguration when the Democrats win this! ! ! Hilary or Obama
I truely Love Ms. Patti Labelle. She is amazing on and off stage. She gives her Heart to her fans ,and to the people. She is Blessed with a powerful voice that inspires us all. I have had the opportunity to meet Ms.Patti on several occasions and each time I felt her Genuine Sprit.
One of her greatest performances! God, this woman is a gift to the world. This actually sounds better than the recorded version, the arrangement has more of a soulful flavor to it. She really took them to church around 3:44!
That's the true test of a "true singer". You know you got it when you sound better live, ie Patti and Luther, the greates female and male singers ever!!!!
Patti's vocals add shape,color,definition and perception to any song she sings. If she could get a grade just for singing she would be considered an over achiever.
I was fairly obsessesed with Patti during this era, and made sure I caught and taped all her televised performaces. I didn't tape this one, but I recall watching it and thinking it was one of the greatest things I'd ever see. How many singers can raise the roof off a stadium?
3:23 -- Unbelievable. This is the kind of stuff singers nowadays spend a week in the studio doing takes to capture. She does it on a live stage. Amazing.
