  • @Lifetimepanther1944

    I totally agree. This is probably one of the very few remakes that actually sounds better than the original version.

  • ALL i gotta say she put all these "singers" out now TO FLAT OUT SHAME!!!! excuse my language but I AM BLOWN THE FUCK AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!! lawddd jesus.. i had to call on the lord with this performance damn!!

  • Her tone is amazing. I love the raspyness to her voice.

  • How many birds does she have hiding in that nest of hair? Nice song though.

  • Wow, not only did she nail it but the chemistry with the saxophonist is phenomenal. Love prince but she took this song to a whole new level!

  • So did she or prince cover this song?

  • @ntaylor253 Prince Wrote it and did it first

  • killed it!!

  • sweet sexy sound

  • have to see ms morgan do it again

  • this song is sexy as shit. If your pants don't come flying off while listening to this, check yourself into a coroner's office because you're probably dead.

  • w☀nderful thank you teddy

  • By appearance only, Kelly Rowland reminds me so much her

  • I put her in the same class,for as singing goes,is Adina Howard,,,,,, Great!

  • not everyone sounds good live...shows u how good she is ...awesome song and video! big ups to the sax man!

  • all i gotta say WOW to that hair. that is all her reall hair too.

  • How do u know that's her real hair?

  • I love this woman..she is the bomb...I love her version AND I love Prince's version..they both do it differently but I like both feelings I get from each version

  • True

  • Who the is sax man? That mf is bad!!! He is off the chain; can play HIS ASS OFF!!! You can tell that he really didn't even reherse with them, he just came in for the gig and aced it!!!

  • Sadao Watanabe

  • Ms Morgan is the fucking shit.....this version is straight up on point......damnit

  • Great song from the 80s - check out Meli'sas early stuff and Sadao Watanabe on sax did some great stuff as well

  • dose anyone knoiw what program this is from?

  • God it makes me wanna do someone,too!

  • Wow! What talent! The 80's rock!! The singers of today cannot compare!!! This song is amazing. I really like this duet. What a sensual version this is.

  • The saxaphonist is killin it!!!

  • The saxophonist is superbly fascinating.

  • check out his CDs: Rendevous/Birds of Passage/Front Seat/Selected

  • Her version makes you feel it's o'k to listen and enjoy Prince on the other hand sings it with kink makes you feel a guilty pleasure to listen and enjoy..both do it great justice

  • She did a splendid job with this:-)

  • prince verson is better

  • No!!!!

  • NOPE!!!

  • Prince is the greatest, of course his is! but this lady is pretty good!

  • yeah shes good.

  • Deluxe!!!

  • Anyone know when Meli'sa did this performance??

  • She was one of my favorites when I heard this song. I fell in love with this song. I like this version best. Don't get me wrong Prince is one of the greatest too.

  • beautiful. culture. Thank God

  • Melissa ripped this song.

  • Sadao looked like he was trying really really hard to focus on his sax playing lol..

    It seemed like he was getting distracted to his right if you all know what I mean ;)

  • da man on that saxaphone look like he wanted 2 do somethin 2 her....lol!!!!!!!

  • Prince´s version was sick-as-fuck, but I heard this one first and I was mesmerized by her body and her Patti Labelle esque hair.

    She definitely is a NY native: we age well. Our hair line might be gone, but we still have the same face without the wrinkles too!

    Look at Christopher Williams, Al B. Sure!, me, etc....we look good for our age and I am 35 when people think I am 24, 26.

    I would have sexy time with her in a time machine and even now. She looks safe.

  • Wonderful!Grande Cantora, essa canção é simplesmente linda!

  • ojiii

  • Damn she doesnt have a bad voice at all.

  • I understand this takes time. I was just making a general observation. It is true that you can literally pick up a microphone and instantly become a star, but that's not always the case. Some people still struggle to get to the stardom. Great point, though.

  • What big hair she has.

  • I love the texture of her voice...sounds quite similar to Chaka Khan at times, but she also has a more velvety side to her softer tones...she can really sang!

  • Best Version!

  • HOW BIG IS THAT HAIR!!! Takes me WAYYYY back, her voice is phenomenal!!!!

  • She is the best female singer on the planet.PERIOD. THAT'S IT THAT'S ALL!

  • whoooooooeee! That woman tells you wtf she wants. THIS is music... raw emotion, and actual skill.

  • ok ok ok I gotta say something about singers in the 70 and 80's. THEY SANG!!! They didn't try to backflip and spin and crank dat.(lol) they just stood there and sang. (lookin at Ciara and Beyonce)I wish singers would just stick with sanging and let DANCERS do the dancing.

  • yep,,,,, beyonce and them always be shaking them booty like their song aint attractiing enough fame.

    that is poor weak songsmanship.

    i think in the 80's they did spin on their backs a little bit too.

  • Dang they both can blow! She looks and sounds amazing. It was so cute to see them playing off each other, thanks for this.

  • My man this is my song! I cannot get ENOUGH of Meli'sa and her soulful tone and voice.

  • Excellent clip! thank you!

  • now this is how a cover song is suppose to be done...... i heard Prince was blown away by it

  • I always thought she could blow this one.

    Prince of course is hot, but this is this

    hot girl version. LP even better!

  • Sing that shit Miss Lady! I remember when she came to the Dell East in Philly and I was there to see her.

  • Luv this Lady so much..  Please post more on her.

  • I cannot decide what I love more here - the voice or the hair!

  • Great to see a video clip with stereo sound here on youtube! The song is fantastic, Meli'sa Morgan rules big time! The sax player Sadao Watanabe is also so awesome!

  • Great clip !

    That saxophone player is Sadao Watanabe a smooth jazz legend.

  • what cute guy wants to do to me what this song is talking about? :D

  • she is very good and i do love that prince song.

  • It's a crime that Meli'sa's DO ME BABY CD is out of print - every song is a killer - sublime and searing 80s soul like they just don't make anymore - makes you want to go back in time to the 80s: CHERRELLE, ALEXANDER ONEAL, MELI'SA, and more...

  • Please don't remove this post. History needs to be preserved! They don't make em like this anymore.

  • I love Melisa's voice because her sound is indistinguishable. Got a chance to see her live in Harlem a couple years ago at "Family Day" and she still got tha fire. I would love to write for her to put her back on tha map. My girl is bad!

  • HONEST REAL MUSIC.

  • her new album is incredible!! and she will be in harlem on the 27 of sept to perform at city college.

  • THX 4 this Awesome Post

  • The jazz version with Sadao Watanabe is off the hook. As a R&B and Jazz collector I think the live jazz version is better then the studio version. This is smoothhhhhhh

  • ive always knew that meli'sa morgan was no joke vocally, but this performance just proved i wasnt crazy. she sounds just like the record; no studio tricks needed for her.

  • She has one of the most powerfulest voices I have every heard. Simply beautiful!

  • Great live performance! I miss the REAL singers. We need more of them. We have a huge shortage of them! Especially for my generation and I'm only 17 years old.

  • there's alot of new talent.chris brown can sing when he is not jumping around on stage.neyo,omarion,riahana,jen­ifer hudson and alot of others that singing background.this takes time.i remember when melisa was singing background.just takes time.for now just enjoy the oldschool.i am 41 and i sing.but this type of talent takes a while.o i forgot b.

  • Yeah, I agree. But back then, nearly all of the Black artists that were out then could sing like this. Now there aren't a lot of Black singers in the public that can really BLOW and tear the mess out of a song like Meli'sa Morgan.

  • Are you a fucking idiot to even mention these new kats in the same vein as Her. Sit the fuck down they just dont sing like this anymore. Even the few thatcan sing dont do it well anyway.

  • OKAY?! omarion, rihanna, chris brown, and neyo? rihanna has the support of jay-z, chris and omarion have the little teenage girls supporting them, and neyo is a talented songwriter. vocally, none of them are anything special. you could turn on SHOWTIME AT THE APOLLO or american idol to find singers that could sing them under a bar stool. your right, cant nobody fuck with ms meli'sa morgan.
