If you wanna listen the amazing Thelma's voice in her full beauty, listen Tore down House of Scott Henderson. I think in that cd is the best Thelma I've ever heard.
Wow! She gives a lesson in soulful performing. She`s one of these >60 Singers who really know how to handle songs and how to use their voices without overacting (like some of the younger ones often do).
I definitely agree with vanswilson comment, plus i will add... Alica great artist and admire the roots that she keeps in her music, but NO WAY she can sing this song as Mrs. Thelma Houston does... I never heard this cover b4 and I'm blew away... God Bless Mrs Thelma Houston and Thanks...
I love Thelma Houston's voice. She is one of those American Black female vocalist that never got the accolades that she deserves. Her tone and phrasing are one of a kind. To be 65 years old (May 1943) and still be able to blow like this is incredible.
So this is the lady behind the voice? I first knew this woman from a duet she did with the Winans decades ago..song titled "LEAN ON ME " How I wished she performed it on Auguration ball..Her version of Lean On Me was the BEST!! It was and still is mind blowing everytime i listen to it!!
Love alicia keys because she is a breath of fresh air in today's music scene, and proves that you can be sexy without being vulgar and still be successful, but ms thelma houston ripped her a new one on this song. those women from the old school don't be playing around.
Saw Thelma Houston perform live in NYC a few years ago and she rocked the house that night too. I love her! Please post more of her. How about "The Heat Medley?"
The greatest living soul singer here in my opinion. I seen this on TV, she brought the house down.

Thelma Houston, Etta James, Patti LaBelle, Aretha Franklin are the REAL Soul Sisters!
Beyonce, Alicia and the others are good, but nowhere near their elders.
