I'm 19... and Patti "Aunti Patti" is my idol, my strength, my inspiration, practically my everything... :) I hope I get to meet her one day and tell her that... <3
mmmm yes maybe he met her toe to toe, but for one she is a fierce women of music, and vically and range to be to the point no one can match her at all. xxxx
YOOO THIS IS CRAZY....EVERYTIME I HEAR PATTI SING THIS I GET GOOSEBUMPS AND CRY....SHE IS THE BEST FEMALE SINGER IN MY LIFETIME I BELIEVE AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME DIFFERENT
@danlynerinashlyn1984 Definitely agree with you entirely! Damn i miss Gerald.....Will be going to see Patti this August for the first time, im so excited!
@soulluvsista08 Hey......well........and? Did you like it lol? Did you survive.....? I am a Dutch guy from Amsterdam, and I must say I have been blessed to have been able to "see" (I think "experience" is the word) the Divine Miss P. twice!! First time in De Doelen in Rotterdam in 1989 ("On my own....") and second at the North Sea Jazz Festival, just a couple of years ago. My life will never be the same, haha, I hope and guess your one'll neither lol. Big hug and kiss from Sander from Amsterdam
I miss this Nigga so much its not even funny....... Mr. Too Damn Good...... I love Gerald like women love Mary J. Blige.... No one can hold a candle to Big G!
@mr2damngood73 We all missed this brother Gerald,there will never be another one like him.The greatest soul and rnb singer of his generation.He left us so soon but his body of work is second to none,enjoy the emotions he put in his music. Do you notice since Gerald passed,every single awards tributes are BLAND,they all missed the legendary Gerald Levert RIP.
Gerald was one of the few male performers who could go toe-to-toe with Patti when it came to touching their audience. Their genuine affection for each other, and this song in particular, made for one of my favorite live performances...ever.
We need a "reality" show with people like Patti - The Ojays - Stephanie Mills, and many others come out and sing one of their songs, and then some of these new singers like Neyo - Chris Brown - Rhiana come out and try to sing the same thing and perform better...it would never happen because the new generation would never risk their careers, they would be destroyed....LOL - you can even have a rap division and bring out KRS One or Kool Mo Dee another blow out....the kids gotta learn...
few knew gerald levert was patti's heart next to her son zuri! the last time i saw him alive in person was a couple of years ago in downtown cleveland at a patti labelle concert he was standing on the side of the stage jumping around clapping and cheering her on like he had never seen her before!!!!! They were very close!
I agree with you. The energy that she delivers is what moves me. She challenges you to give your best. She's a mentor and for the folks that speak of Patti states that her genuine attitude and the pureness in her heart is what highlight her beauty.
the best singers from yesterday are fading away slowly. today's singers don't know a damn thing about real music. long live patti, gerald and the music legends, living or dead
Oh this from Motown Live in the late 90's. Do you have the video from that same show singing "If You Ask Me To" with Regina Belle. Power sang all over Regina on that song.
Damn I just watched this again, and pure tears. Patti is awesome solo, but man when she pairs up live with the right duet partner, she is over the moon. Like her duets with Luther, Gerald, and that tribute to Smokey Robinson from Soul Train in the early 90s with Patti, Luther and Gladys.
oh my goodness...that Soul Train tribute was unforgettable!!! Patti singing Ooh Baby Baby in that teeny weenie black dress showing those killer legs!! I loved it!
This is from the short-lived Motown Live show. It was hosted by Robert Townsend and brought some of the young and old acts together. This show feature Patti, Gerald, Regina Belle (who dueted with Patti on If You Asked Me To) and a couple of others. I LOVE this performance and have been looking forever!!! Thank you so much for posting it!!
I wish someone would re-post the video where he sang "Somebody Loves You Baby" at Patti's BET Walk of Fame, and rolled on the floor. I was screaming like a white woman in childbirth when that came on....
All the Patti haters can hate... But can't nobody wear out a microphone like Patti.... You better sang!
