Patti Labelle Sings to Frank Sinatra on his 80th birthday

[starstuff]

She brought the house down. Frank was clearly touched. He sang that song so many years before when he was a skinny kid.

[TheSlicingKing8]

PATTI LABELLE...YOU LEFT ME SPEECHLESS....A REAL live Diva!!!!!

[CHARMEDAK]

2:15 and 3:41...WOW :)) 

[momo251985]

[gwenpookie]

There are so many things about Frank I love besides his music and voice...He never was a racists. he love black people love there music...love to sing with them...and I love and respect him for that...R.I.P. Frank (blue eyes) Sinatra.

[netpoon07]

Damn Patti!

[cl148883]

I love love patti she is a class act and a diva

[MisterCrazyLegs]

That was very "operatic"...

Patti is the Maria Callas of the soul divas.

[SoulSir]

@MisterCrazyLegs who had more vocal range, patti or maria?

[roseannbacalangco]

wow ang galing nman nya kumanta... sobang galing..

[thediva013]

@roseannbacalangco a wop bomma doo bomb a wop bam boo!

[noreexic]

This was Sinatra's last televised appearence, he was rather ill and suffering from dementia, it was great tht so many showed their affection for him one last time at this event. I dnt thin anyone realised he would be dead two years later.

May he rest in peace

[vangoghmatisse]

WOW!!! THE GREASTEST!!!

[viz1]

That sounded a mess

[hussnfussel]

Frank seems in awe of everything around him at this moment you can see it in his face. And he should because if a man was ever loved by america it was him. He was awesome and i believe all of america loved him. And with his great donations to charities he in turn thanked america. May you rest in peace my friend..

[stephandaniels]

ALRIGHT MOTHER YOU SHOWED THEM HOW ITS DONE I REMEMBER THIS PERFORMANCE I WAS ONLY SEVEN YEARS OLD LOL NOW IM 23 LOL

[kokede]

gd, strong vocals definitely. but the style and delivery isn't really my cup of tea. alittle too shrill and overly dramatic. ella would have done it diferently.

[MrPattifan01]

@kokede Ella is Ella. And Patti is Patti.

[pattifan]

Outstanding!

[LawdHelp]

Yeah. She was definitely on her A-game. When she is, nobody can touch her vocally.

[MrPattifan01]

It is a pleasure to be among so many true Patti Labelle fans. I am certainly one of the biggest of all time and at first I thought I had to pay to post my comments, but tonight I had to see for sure because I had read so many of the wonderful comments that you all had made about the best singer in the world that I wanted to post some of my own comments. So I gave it a try and signed up and it turns out it was totally free to sign up. Glad to be among the true patti fans (JAH)

[MrPattifan01]

Patti labelle is vocally untouchable she definately utilized all her vocal skills in this performance. Unbelievablely powerful.

[julieyard1]

I saw this when it was aired on tv.

Frank was moved and you can see his appreciation for patti.

[jabartolone]

To get a standing ovation from a man who's regarded as one of the greatest singers of the 20th century (one who has seen and heard it all ) is the ultimate compliment. Patti was by far the greatest stand-out of that night!!!!!!!!!!!!

[butterfly6581]

i kno she rock that

[Pat8rice]

FANTASTIC!!!

[BigWhiteBoyLuvsPatti]

This is one of the top 5 Patti moments of all time. She was the only performer to get a standing O that night, from Mr. Sinatra himself. I loved the way Patti flipped her coat tails up at the end, like "yeah, I did that ...." RIP Mr. Ellison...work that choir!

[Rrichboy]

yea, this one of my top 5. even my parents called me after this was on tv, and my mom mentioned the coat flip, and she was like, " i give it to ur patti. she rocked that"

[james3185]

he seems transfixed, or constipated lol

[marcoherera]

Amen!
