Amanda DID do too much with the song but she gives it more energy than Rhona does.. But none of them can hit the nail to this song like Dawn does.. Dawn NEVER over does this song nor does she under do this song as well.. I don't know, but the first 2 verses of this song up until Maxine's part should be sang by Dawn Robinson and ONLY Dawn Robinson.
Amanda was doing too much with the song. Dawn, why'd you have to leave!??! Btw, Terry should've sang Max's part instead of Cindy since she really didn't sing much.
Correct me if I'm wrong on the "Hold On" intro: do I hear Cindy first singing Dawn's high notes @ " When I had you" and after that she switches back to her own original part? It sounds great anyway!
I am a fan of En Vogue my best group ever. I like Destinys child (first album) after latoya and la tavia left the group I aint fan no more..
Question:
If Envogue still as famous in their 80s and 90s would Destinyschild will be a HIT or just a ONE HIT WONDER if ENVOGUE clash with them? Battle of the Voice...who will u choose and why? DC or EV
Well, I haven't been keeping up with the group these days but the new girl sounds good to me. Terry's voice is still fantastic but as a singer myself, sometimes flem gets in the throat and stifles the notes one's trying to hit. Overall they looked good and sounded good. I look forward to seeing the original line up one day, minus Dawn's or Maxines's ego.
Oops Not as professional as wouldve liked! A wee Smidge of a hint of a flavour of pitchiness ...But still sellable! There were a few mini Toy-Train Crashing moments But otherwise -Cool!
Another dumb song. Dawn did right to leave these tired little girls. They all hated on her but she had the last laugh. So di Luther. Karma is a bitch. En Gross thank god They're gone. Plus they're all ugly and had no style.
Well...one things for sure...Dawn needed to be there to lead this tragedy. (lol) I don't feel any passion in their voices at all. Who is this new chick? She is flat!
Amanda Cole. Seems like she was there right before Max left. She does not sound bad to me. She is not Dawn, and she should not be, meaning she has to be who she is.
You must have the members confused! Who sang the intro to "Hold On"? Who sang "Don't Go"? "Just Can't Stay Away"? It was all Terry Ellis. The only member that can ease into her whistle register, belt from her stomach, and sing so sweetly in her falsetto that people think she is Dawn (on "Desire)! She definitely has the most power so I am going to assume that you don't know who is who.
Although this video is pretty old, they still sound good. Maxine is back now and the other girl was replaced by Rhona Bennett and now they sound better than ever! You should make it a point to check them out if they come to your city.
The BEST singers were Maxine and Dawn.Cindys good too.Terry tried too hard.She was the one without a sound all her own.Listen to the old stuff and you'll see what I mean.Sounds like Dawn without the power.Maxine had the soul and Cindy had the squeal.Terry just souds like another "good" singer.Once Dawn left,it just wasn't right anymore anyway.Maxine rules!
lol...I remember the Grammy performance when En Vogue presented Mariah Carey with the Best New Artist Award...Maxine stopped singing in the middle of the "Hold On" intro.
En Vogue's two strongest singers have always been and will always be Cindy Herron and Terry Ellis! Those were the two ladies that made the group famous!
The sound is not as "strong" and "powerful" as it is with the orignal harmonies...this doesnt really do it for me either..I agree with you oladeji15...
Its because of Maxine; a lot of people underestimated her contribution to the group. She has the lowest voice (the base of every EV chord); without that foundation... the glue, its just not the same.
I'm sorry, but this line up just doesn't do it for me. They sound like an amature group... (and En Vougue is my FAVORITE female group). I thought it was the new girl, but listening closer all three are messing up.
Now EV is three originals and Rhona. Dawn should have came back, the original EV was on a major record label, but were dropped because Dawn wanted to do her own thing
I actually like Rhona, she's a great singer. I have no problems with Cindy, Terry, Maxine and Rhona. I've heard their performances together, they've been killin' it.
they doin the best they can LOL its not the original but my fave is still in the group and Amanda is very talented u just not used to seein her and das natural
Amanda Cole. She was the replacement for Maxine/Dawn between 2001-2003. She left just after they released the Xmas album, but I don't know why exactly.
Shame though, cos she had a brilliant voice and I think she blends in with the group better than Rhona does (the current new member). Still love Rhona though :)
I love TERRY, DAWN, MAX, CINDY, AND RHONA but this Amanda chick just doesn't cut it!
