Summertime, Fantasia UNCF special

[LeaJolan]

I wish she would get back to this Fantasia. All the scraming she does now is not needed. This gave me straight chills!

[h1ydrippa]

Goosebumps



[KimiYagami]

I love her but she started to high

[Zakkost]

puts almost every female artist to shame

[HoodJock]

I got one more thing say THERES A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOOD OR GREAT VOCALIST OR RAPPER AND HAVING A GOOD TRACK OR TRACKS OR GREAT BAND TO MAKE YOU SOUND GOOD. EXAMPLE MARY J BLIGE IS A HORRIBLE SINGER SHE JUST HAS SUM GOOD TRACKS.TAKE HER OUT OF THE STUDIO AND LET HER SING... SHE'D BE "BOO BOO"!!! WHO ELSE IS WACK?OH...CHRIANSTINA AGULIERA & CELINE DEON.THEY SING OFF PITCH AND SING THRU THEY NOSE...THEY BOODY!! AND PPL WANT 2 SAY FANTASIA CANT SING. DATS COMEDY RIGHT THERE.LOL,LOL....ONE!!!

[HoodJock]

Part 2.Tasia's a great singer period and she keeps getting better.She's a great singer for alot of reasons...she never sings anything the same twice,sounds better in person than she does on C.D.(no studio tricks to make her sound better)She's the real deal.HER VOICE DOES WHAT SHE TELLS IT DO!!! LOL SHE FREAKED THIS PERFORMANCE. STEVIE WAS IMPRESSED HE LIKED THIS RENDITION.HE WAS SMILE'N.So i guess she can sing.LOL.LOL

[MissTawnyaSmith]

i feel tasia evertime she sing but cannot stand the way she act. She a true hoodrat in every since of the word bu her voice cant be ignored

[thePHATbeats]

@MissTawnyaSmith hoodrat? ignorance will keep you where you are :)

[JudeSantana]

@MissTawnyaSmith i have to agree with you completely. i joked with my friend the other day about that, shes the voice of the ghetto, lol. but yeah she can definetly sing and her actions turn me off

[rashard418]

if your in arkansas on july 9 dont miss fantasia live in concert at the robinson center in Little Rock,AR

[lissadanielle18]

She is amazing.....and its crazy because clearly she was just playing around with her voice especially for that performance........hands down one of the greastest of our generation

[reyGuze]

only one word................... awesome

[stitchmiami]

ok I will say I'm a Huge Beyonce Fan, Love all her music. But Beyonce is a entertainer, she can dance and sing all at the same time, don't know any singer that can do that. But FANTASIA is the BEST vocalist, she's next generation's Patti. She just needs Quality songs to push her to the top. When Fantasia Sings, you feel it, and I lover her for that

[Mrwellingtonmusic]

Eu amo a voz dessa mulher!!!Show

[AKADevoted]

i dont care how many times i watch this vid its always stiring.......Tasia thats right tell them you didnt come to play no games! BEST SINGER IN THE GAME; PERIOD!

[surajabi]

Mesmerizing!!

[88niteowl88]

magical!

[rashard418]

everybody the time as come to start requesting fantasia new single "collard greens and cornbread" on your local radio station and buy it on itunes so she can get to number one on the charts so please support

[ChocolateSmurf2001]

my eyes get full of tears EVERY single time I hear her sing no matter what song she's singing !! This woman is a blessing to this world and she will definitely be remembered long after she's gone the same as we will remember Luther, Elvis , Michael , Billie Holiday so on and so forth, I think I get my drift !

[nrhgardner]

This is probably the best live vocal performance I have ever seen.

[charleslindsaymusic]

1.Fantasia seriously needs to put out a live album!!

2. Can anyone else tell by this performance that this around the time that she got nodes on her vocal cords.

3. I looooove her lower register she should use it more often!

[warrsmith7]

ther or a lot of good talent in the south.........jon from ... new york

[warrsmith7]

'''this is what i call talent love u fantasia.....

[syaroldd]

she never fails to WOW us! love ya tasia!

[MrMusicAddict90]

sang slave lady

[warrsmith7]

@MrMusicAddict90 .....you sound like a jealous person......i bet your a black person?? because i know black people like to put down on there race.....

[freesoup09]

@MrMusicAddict90 that wasn't nice....

[itsmeanthony]

i can only saw wooow ;)

[bry3rr]

fantasia is an amazing singer, and also a woman and mother.

she is so sweet and down to earth.

my favorite artist of all time.

[MIMI88998899]

@bry3rr

She was messing around with a married man and she told his wife off over the phone and you say she is a nice person? I beg to differ.

[rashard418]

everybody please vote for her new video "im doin me" on vh1 top 20 countdown to vote go to (vh1.com:vspot top 20 countdown) so vote hard and remember you can vote as many times as you please

[shirleybw]

[hanafinoor]

Beautiful voice

[aoj1]

I appreciate Fantasia!!!!

[prettybrownbaby]

Tasia is so underrated, shes very talented.

[lanies1000]

I LOVE THIS GIRL VOICE IT GIVES ME CHILLS SHE HAS SO MUCH TALENT!!GOD BLESS HER...

[101Blessed1]

An amazing gift! A unique and awesome talent. Her performances are raw, fearless, & touching. Wow!

[HB3ZZY]

that was an unbelievable performance. I think were looking at one if not the best female vocalist of the decade.

[mochasweet]

Damn Girl ! She snapped at the end!

[MzNique850]

OMG! I catch chills every time I watch this video. Fantasia is absolutely phenomenal when she is singing just about anything. Beyonce, Alicia Keys, and Mary J Blige definitely hold their own little talents when performing live but Fantasia is in a class of her own!

[rand0528]

FANTASIA FOR REAL 2---PLEASE TUNE IN 9-19-2010 ON VH1.

DONT MISS THIS SEASON IT WILL BE SOMETHING TO WATCH.

FANTASIA'S #1 FAN.

LOVE U TASIA.

[rashard418]

don t miss her on 106&park tomorrow,regis and kelly,and the wendy williams friday

[bemaniac2]

If she still gave these kind of performances she would be HUGE right now...

[SittingPrettymn]

@bemaniac2 In my opinion, I think she still gives stellar performances; however, she is in desperate need of better writers. I say the same about india.arie and anthony hamilton. they are some of my fav. musicians, however, people are sleep on them, because of their material. 

[chosson76]

Fantasia's a monster talent. No one can say once they've seen one version of a song she's sang you've heard them all. She's an authentic gift, an artist in the truest sense. Modern day Patti!

[collinsboy21]

A true artist i love it.

[jtimgreat]

Thats Y shes my baby!!!!!!!!!!!!

[briangreene1]

Fantasia killed that

[singerboy989]

NOW THIS IS PROOF THAT FANTASIA IS JUST A DAWG MAN HER VOCAL ABILITY IS LIKE OFF THE RICTOR SCALE! those runs! whoo just blows me away!

[singerboy989]

I agree WITH lisalovescory! FANTASIA IS A BEAST AND THATS ALL IT IS TOO IT!!!

[rashard418]

[JudeSantana]

Oh MY GOd. AMAZING!

[MrKazoozles]

The arrangement always blows me away. Fantasia puts Gershwin to shame.

[nrhgardner]

This is the definitive performance of this song.

[plprz]

killed it.

[chynanichole]

LisaLovesCory I second that emotion. When she sings you can literally feel it. She is a born natural

[bolton0607]

How about the note @ 0:50 - 0:56, being straight up, 100 percent, ALL AROUND REALLL JAZZ, lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[texashotness123]

ok the note @2:10 is str8 up jazz.. I love this woman... Her and Brandy are the best when it come to str8 up vocals....

[MissijeleONE]

this lady can sang okay? I dont care what anyone says, oh and Jennifer hudson

[schuliger]

The way she reverberated on that last " BY " note was simply fantastic!!!

[rashard418]

don t miss fantasia on the mo'nique show on bet

[SairyPoo]

I think she's the most talented singer i've ever heard

[MSKIDDY65]

fantasia did a great job. this is not a karaoke performance.

[intheknow7]

awesome! (as usual) would love for her to do more jazz, blues material -- Etta James, Nancy Wilson, Sarah Vaughn songs or create her own...she seems to have limitless potential...she's a breathe of fresh air!

[ebonyeyes1984]

@intheknow7 Thank you for saying this awesome comment. At the very end, I thought to myself "She could make a mark in blues or jazz". This performance gives me chills. It's one thing to sing well - It's another thing to stir someone's soul with your voice.

[nigha2handsome]

AMEN Tasia!

[peachycream81]

Best version of summertime ever....... SING IT!!!!!

[BlueYoshiesFly]

this is amazing!

[mexicangirl18]

Does anyone have a karaoke version of summertime that is similar to this version? I think Fantasia is my favorite performer of "summertime"

[tanaj08]

man she make u feel every song she sings, dats da difference between her n otha singers, she is amazing, i neva get tried of seeing her perform

[jeim6]

wow..diz da best out of al the time i hurd diz song sung thiz mii fave on handz dwn...she killed iitd realy da last part.standiin o...

[LisalovesCory]

I don't care what anybody says. Fantasia sings better than Beyonce, Alecia Keys, and all of them female artists out there today combined. You got to give it to Fantasia. She is so talented.

[antwannd]

100% Agree..but you know the real singers rarely get the notice and recognition they deserve

[Poorlilrichboy]

FANTASIA > Beyonce in talent . Beyonce > Fantasia in promotions. Fantasia needs more of a backin from the record label i freakin love her.

[peachycream81]

U better know it. Pure damn talent

[deltaboi007]

@LisalovesCory Rite♥

[jetts48]

@LisalovesCory THEY'RE ALL GOOD IN THERE OWN RIGHT, THEIR ALL TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND TALENTED!!

[ManhattanStory]

@LisalovesCory of she does! she is amazing. americas best singer!

[SuchAmusikFanatic]

@LisalovesCory I definitely agree...but you know they always sleep on da best ones...another perfect example is Kelly Price

[jetts48]

@SuchAmusikFanatic KELLY PRICE DOES GOSPEL NOW, AND HER NAME IS OUT THERE. SHE'S AN BIG GOSPEL STAR

[DiscoWilliams817]

@LisalovesCory me personally...i don't compare any of those ladies(whom i love as well)u just named to Fantasia..Fantasia's swag when she performs is like NONE OTHER FEMALE Artist that has come out in this past decade..She's in a class all by herself..Like i look at her like,if the audience wasn't having a good time & the producers found her & said Fantasia can u please get up & sing..with just one song she would change the ENTIRE night

[Ettyboo21]

@LisalovesCory SHE SURE DOES!!!!

[jrokstar247]

@LisalovesCory OMG I LOVE YOU FOR THAT COMMENT LOL

[QUAYQUAY1992]

@LisalovesCory  AMEN TO THIS COMMENT

[rodderick347]

@LisalovesCory lol beyonce and those girls are talented but fantasia is some a lil more when i list fantasia she is on the same group as janis joplin aretha glady this girl is raw talent doesnt matter if she is in a parking lot or awards show she has the chop wonder what is wrong with her number on the chart thats very sad but i know clive will never drop her

[CodePink1908]

@LisalovesCory SAY THAT!

[MIMI88998899]

@LisalovesCory

Fantasia may sing better than Beyonce, Alicia Keys and all the rest of them because they can't sing...and neither can Fantasia. Therefore she may sound just a tad bit better than them. Fantasia is too much of a clown and hoodrat for me. I can't stand the way she clowns around the stage and wants to take off and fly like Patty Labelle. But I guess if your from the "hood" all of that behavior is cool for you. But for the majority of us it's a bunch of b.s.

[blackra4]

@MIMI88998899 What the hell do you mean if you are from the "hood"? So many great people came from the hood. The so called "high class negroes are no better than the so called hood people. Many of you are jobless, net worth is only about 5 bucks. Don't own stocks or corporations. Fantasia probably has more net worth than you so called uppity negroes. Go sit down somewhere. You played yourself.

[JudeSantana]

@MIMI88998899 i agree

[radiation05]

@LisalovesCory as big as a beyonce fan i am, i will have to agree, tasia sings her ass off

[krischan008]

She always kills this song ( IN an AMAZING WAY ) But goodness this was in another league to other versions she's done. It's simply stunning

[fnewson]

Exactly - it seems as though when she left (won) the AI, she let her true skills out.

[dangelomister]

[RakimNas]

[Boredism01]

No offence or anything, but why does anybody cae?

[RakimNas]

Because I want a picture of her hair.

[kphelion123]

SANG GIRL

[DaStreets]

I would love to see Fantasia do a Ella Fitzgerald album or something on those lines of the great jazz singers like Billy Holiday!!!

[NewDartg14]

me too

[todi101]

wow actual instruments, actual talent, and actual emotion in a performer nowadays!

what a rarity!!!!!!!!!

[VaGurl88]

u cant compare her to anyone she is just that great and her voice is like no one else out right now she is blesed and we blessed to get to hear the voice

Leona can't touch this. Fantasia is just outstanding and she isn't getting nearly the publicity that she deserves compared to others like Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson who seem to be majorly successful just because of their skin color. I am by no means rascist, but it is a fact that if you are caucasian and in the music industry, you already have an advantage.
