Patti LaBelle Michael Bolton - You're All I Need To Get By

[zanthus7]

OH MY GOD!!!!! That was amazingly too perfect. Who would have guessed that Michael Bolton would be the perfect match for Patti? I've never heard him performed like that and it was because of the Queen Diva. This performance is one for the history books. I could not stop crying while watching this. Michael deserves a bow for this one. Anyone male who can keep up with the Queen Diva is aces in my book. You go Boy!!!

I agree with all of you. I love Patti, but when she sings with other singers she usually over powers them. This time it didn't happen, because michael is one of the strongest singers around .

[MisterCrazyLegs]

this video is proof that you betta have your shit together, when you step out there on a stae with my girl, here...because she will leave your silly ass behind, if your notes aint snappin and crackin. Thank God, Michael figured out how to keep up with ol' girl.

Yes Patti is one of the best ,however she met her match with Michael Bolton, Luther Vandross, and I would of love to see her sing with David Ruffin, in which is considered one of the best.

[anntheia59]

Excuse me, Michael Bolton is no clown face, and yes he's a better singer than Marvin, however what's the point. This was on Motown 30 anniversary, in 1990.

Michael McDonald, Rod Stewart, Elton John, John Wait were each equally unavailable the to the great Patti for this tribute? Hmmm...

[viviancaver3]

Patti, that girl has a voice on her! With the passion she expresses in this music, hyped it up. I love them both but Patti, wow, she is very unique. Unique voice that is so loveable, and colorful. What a legend. You go girl, don't have to try to match anyone, just have a love for music. One of the best singers in the world.

When I saw this Motown 30,and when I saw this guy for the first time. I said to myself that Patti is going to murder this poor guy. I was at first insulted that they picked him to do Marvin's part. After it was over I said to myself I was so glad that for the first time in a duo, that Patti Labelle met her match,because she tried but she couldn't ,I repeat she couldn't outsing him. After that I was truly a Michael Bolton fan, I don't think Marvin could of sung this song any better than Michael

[hatedbyniccaz]

Patti at her BEST noone could touch her in these days

[Thanja959]

...every time I see this duet, a chill goes up my arms! Props to Michael for not only holding his own against the legendary Miss Patti, but making her take it up a notch too!

[DetroitLives313]

What show is this from?

[phillyTne]

@DetroitLives313 I can't think of the exact name but this is a Motown special from 88 or 89.

[phillyTne]

@DetroitLives313 This is a Motown special from about 89 or 90...somebody help me out!!

[carterboy66]

Baby when you get on the stage with Patti you betta bring your "A" game and Mr. Bolton held it down. I love this performance. They should give a class on power tributes.

[phillyTne]

A prime example of great showmanship at it's best...they couldn't even wait for them to finish to start applauding. Patti may not have had the glorious early career of some of her peers but when her time came, she took no prisoners.

[ANDREOFNORTHDALLAS]

See patti pushes those other artist to sing at their best. Loving this, thanks

@ANDREOFNORTHDALLAS exactly what i was thinking
