  • I cant understand the comparison,two different styles and voices and two great performers,what is the comparisons about, every individual is different,kudos for the posting

  • You're dead inside if these voices don't move you.

  • Excellent duet! They both did well. I love Gloria. Whenever Chaka sings this particular song with ANYBODY, it rocks!!! Chaka is truly a musical goddess!!!

  • I think Gloria did great here...great harmony between the two.

  • i get happy whenever i hear Chaka sing.she made gloria sing this song, gloria is a professional yes, put to sing with chaka, you got to be on your A game.

  • She is hot!

  • @MrSmiffy07 After the show, Gloria Estefan cooked Chaka Khan Cuban tamales and her mouth

    went 'through the fire"......lol Tabloids never reported this incident.

  • @jpsmart59 hehe

  • Chaka khan live!!!!!!

  • Love love love Chaka,

    Gloria had no emotion in this performance :/

  • My goodness Chaka can sing! I love her voice! Truly matchless!

  • Sorry, but I don't care for this. I would rather Chaka sing this by herself. Gloria can't keep it up. She can't hang with the great CK.

  • best of both worlds! i love both divas' how nice of chaka not to belt too much with gloria. great singers...

  • TWO "DIVAS".......SING IT, SING IT......

  • I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE. TWO GREAT SINGERS AND A GREAT SONG.

  • that was nice

  • I close my eyes & feel like I'm transported to the 80's. Then I open them to see 2 Chaka's! I want to cry when I see that my ears have transported me back in time, while my eyes rudely bring me to the present.

  • Go ahead Gloria and do your thing!! You held your own. And nice harmonies.

  • i like them both!!

    they both GREAT artist!

    there's no comparison bet. the two

    chaka, soul singer

    gloria , latin singer

  • WOW, WHAT A VIDEO SUNG BY TWO AWESOME LADIES.

  • Great rendition by both artists. Gloria dosen't try to out sing chaka but instead comes in below chakas range and in doing so helps make the song. You have to know what you are doing to make harmonies sound this good.

  • THE POINT IS SHE IS STEPPIN OUT THE BOX AND IS HOLDIN HER OWN!!!!!!

  • duas das vozes mais doces e quentes da musica mundial!!!

  • The queen of Funk with the queen of Latin-Pop... 2 giants of the 80's and both grand inspirations! This comparison contest has to stop, they're both totally different singers. Last time I checked the divas don't sit around bickering about who's better at singing because they have what most of you don't... RESPECT!!! Both of these woman are legends and reguardless of genre, no one should be compared PERIOD. And guess what? They're all friends! I dare any of u to tell these things to their faces!!

  • gloria looks like celine dion in Divas98 in far view. shes so beautiful here.

  • i like gloria,,,she have dat class

  • I love both. Gloria has that Latin soul. :)

  • Chaka Khan an artist should've known better to sing this duet with someone who's voice isn't as powerful. Gloria is a great singer, but she doesn't have the power to her voice that she needs to hold her own next to Chaka; this song needs to be sang next to the likes of Beyonce, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, or Celine Deion. That's like me trying to sing next to Gloria. Chaka missed her note cause she's trying to lower her power so as not to drown out gloria. Bad idea. Yikes.

  • Chaka failure in the high note in 2:15...in that duet with Alfonso ribeiro sounds pretty good!

  • Glo knows her limits and has the humility to sing the low harmony to bring her best to a project given more dimension and a wider audience than it had even before this version. Bravo and well done! to both ladies and I applaud the person who arranged this presentation. Good ear!

  • There's no need to bash Gloria. It's obvious she can't sing like Chaka(few can). But to act like Gloria can't sing and hasn't accoplished anything is ridiculous

  • @DaxShaw i totally agree but gloria definitely held her own on this one!!!

  • @DaxShaw yeah, I love Gloria and I love the two of them together!

  • @DaxShaw right on! gloria is bad ass! she can sing , write and is a cuban american activist and restauranteur. and when she sings her stuff there is nobody better

  • @DaxShaw I KNOW CHAKA IS ONE OF THE GREATEST VOICES OF ALL TIME BUT RANGE ISN`T ALL GLORIA HAS SOLD MORE ALBUMS THAN CHAKA COULD EVER DREAM OF...

  • @fireandrain22 its not about sales here,this is a celebration of two beautiful voices in harmony to uplift our spirits.

  • @DaxShaw ...on your rebuttal on Chaka and Gloria i absolutly agree.

  • Why is everyone bashing Gloria? Just because Chaka can sing doesn't mean Gloria can't. Gloria's accomplished a lot and is a legend also, in her own right. True she hasn't been around as long as Chaka.

  • They sound great together. Two legends.

  • love it

  • YESS Chaka Khan You are the Best

  • Gloria surprises me yet still. With duets with Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra, Celine Dion, Donna Summer and now Chaka Khan!!! Wow not too many singers can hold there own against such incredible artists. Go Gloria!!!! Can't wait for the new dance album September 2010!!!!!!!

  • Chaka Khan & Gloria Estefan are two of the best voices that I've heard in my life.Congratulations and thanks a lot for the wonderfull post

  • Where was this recorded???

  • Nice duet

  • Actually Gloria is helping Chaka on the high notes.. That's the beauty of duet like this.

  • @OneBikeGuy

    Im sorry bro' but are you on drugs? Chaka Khan is the queen of high note riffin'. I did not make out in this video that Gloria was helping her out with the high notes?

  • Chaka is so beautful OMG and Gloria was very brave to duet with "The Queen" I have never cared for Gloria but I have to honestly say she was a 20 on a scale frim 1-10 she held her own I wish she would sing live with more soul like she did here!

  • does anyone have the continuity of this performance cause it changes key i'd like to hear the rest

  • No Prince actually wrote "I Feel For You". He recorded it first and Chaka and The Pointer Sisters covered it.

  • I don't know what people are talking about they're not compatible they have such a pretty harmony in this song I LOVE it but then again I'm in chorus so this kind of stuff sound pretty normal to me lol ^-^

  • they actually don't sound that bad together

  • i havent heard them together yet but i dont think so either

  • hmm, i dont think that their voices are compatible for this song.. but theyre both great singers individually.

  • YEah I agree, actually I prefer a male/female combo for this song, like the one with Alfonzo.

  • Comment removed

  • she wrote sweet thing, you got the love, co-wrote tell me something good but got no credit, she also wrote robert palmer's "addicted to love" which was a #1 hit...she wrote her song "be bop medley" which won her a grammy...also wrote and co-wrote on most of the songs on FUNK THIS which won a grammy.

  • Comment removed

  • you got the story w/robert palmer backwards you IDIOT! Chaka wrote it wanting to do it as a duet and WMG refused to let her do it and took her vocals off the track..she arranged the vocals for "be-bop medley" she wrote "sweet thing" with tony they were in love at the time dummy! and i never said she wrote "disrespectful" but she did write "angel" which was the leading single tht recieved the most airplay.half of those songs sucked b4 Chaka put her touch on them...

  • Comment removed

  • she actually wrote but only got credited for aranging it because her label was disagreement w/his label...I never said Angel won an award but it was the leading single for an album that won an award...Gloria's latest album didnt do as good as Chaka's anyway so Shut the Hell up!!!

  • Comment removed

  • well if they had "Black grammys" im sure Chaka would have one some also...point blank Chaka can win grammys REAL ONES tht dont matter about your race...Funk This is now GOLD so u can shut up now!

  • Thats correct. GOLD CERTIFIED, SO GET FUNKED!

  • Comment removed

  • It just so happens that Im hispanic and African American you idiot! I only responded to you because your spreadin around false crap about Chaka. I already said that i liked Gloria...but u keep insisting that im saying shes not as good as Chaka because Chaka's black...when yet anyone on earth could tell you that Chaka is the better vocalist..i think your the racist one 1...

  • Why does it not surprise me that you're a 38 year old weirdo with a severe case of crazies, going off the deep end when someone praises Chaka but not Gloria?

  • Comment removed

  • @CMGOMEZ71 Chaka Khan has had many numbers hits that she wrote on her own. Please go read a history BOOK because ur only showing how dumb you really are. And even if she was a size 2 or a size 20 she will always be better than gloria.... Who the hell is Gloria Estefan??? Matter fact I can go ask anybody who is Gloria and they won't even know her but it will be the total different if I asked who is Chaka Khan, everybody can answer that and can name a song or songs she has song. Can gloria? Never

  • Comment removed

  • @CMGOMEZ71 you can not even compare the work of THE GREAT CHAKA KHAN to gloria estefan. You have to be the biggest idiot in the world. If she is so good why is she singing one of CHAKA KHAN songs. I dont give a damn who wrote CHAKA KHAN songs they are number one hits. How many does gloria estefan have? Before she song with Chaka Khan I did not even know who she was! You think you are a hard ass because you a callin people idiots over the computer but yoou scared to put your picture on

  • Comment removed

  • love it.... why not complete?

  • What's great about this is how they ACTUALLY HARMONIZE TOGETHER!!! Gloria is a good singer, but can't reach Chaka's high notes. They meet in the middle and sound great. Nor does Gloria try to OVER SING. She knows her ranges and sings perfectly and THAT'S how to sing. LOVE them BOTH here for different reasons.

  • Comment removed

  • Well you have to on of da best!! to sing with chaka khan no doubt about that and as far as im concern gloria is one of da best & hot just like chaka khan :)

  • @CMGOMEZ71 and ur right it is not a competition because Chaka Khan is too good to even compare with Gloria Estefan. It does not matter if Gloria Estefan song in French or did sign language she would and could never beat Chaka Khan in singin or performin...how many number one songs and records does Glory Estefan have? you have to be the biggest idiot alive. @ qdog568 Chaka is better looking and a better singer than Glory Estefan ..no homo!!!!

  • Amazing to hear the differential of very good Latin singer, Black singer even White singer, or from other cultural background, they are all have so unique vocal characteristic. We can't compare to each other they are all so great to listen.

  • I love Gloria, but she's way out of league here with Chaka!

  • ur ass need to get that wax out ur damn ears Gloria can't singer better than Chaka Khan. Who the fuck is Gloria she can't even can't even compare to Chaka Khan.

  • @QueenBritney89 Your ass needs to understand what the hell you're reading. What I said is Gloria is not in the same league with Chaka. In simpler terms Chaka is a better singer. Got it? Next time understand what is written before you make an ass out of yourself.

  • naw what u need to do is cool ur ass out motherfucker because i dont know how the fuck a think ur talking to. And shit i know Chaka Khan is a better singer than Gloria.  Now u understand THAT!!

  • @QueenBritney89 Sounds like someone needs their mouth washed out with soap!!

  • @qdog568 kiss my ass. And it sounds like your the one that needs the soap!!!!

  • @QueenBritney89 Chaka is a better singer, but Gloria is much prettier!!

  • what eva

  • Comment removed

  • Actually Chaka Khan is well known internationally, she doesn't have to just be on the English and Spanish charts.. Chaka Khan has proven to be the best since the 1970s and is still the BEST. So please dont try to say glorias 2 decades can ever compare to Chaka Khan's!! And like I have said to you so many times who the is gloria??...Now you go learn Your music history BITCH!!!

  • Chaka's been on the charts for 4 decades now!!! Your the IDIOT!

  • Comment removed

  • never said anything racist...

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • FOOL why does she have to sing in spanish?? just because people sing in spanish does not make them a good singer seems like gloria has proven that to be true. She is nothing compared to Chaka Khan. Gloria does not have a song that she has written because she sings everybody else song unlike Chaka Khan who has written and song many of her OWN songs. Because she is just that GREAT!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @CMGOMEZ71 It's "Asheford & Simpson" you IDIOT. First of all she was in a group when she recorded that song and I never said she did write that but she has written plenty of her own songs that has has went to the number one spot on the billboard dumbass. GO back and do more research

  • Comment removed

  • Chaka and Gloria are actually on the same label now and Chaka's Funk This did way BETTER...Even won 2 grammys!!! Chaka is also known for her "Rufus" work and she wrote several of their hits..co-wrote "Tell me something good" wrote "Sweet Thing" and "You Got the Love" they were all #1's...

  • Comment removed

  • Chaka is with Sony BMG also...i like GLoria too they are both legends in their own rights i just wanted to let you know that Chaka has written alot of great work...and she has had number 1 hits..you've also got to remember that sometimes the best songs aren't the hits..im sure your favs from glorias arent the ones you hear on the radio all the time..same with me when it comes to Chaka...

  • And if gloria is so "great" as you claim why isn't Chaka Khan sing one of her " #1 hits" instead of the other way around???? (Are you still thinking? Because I know the answer.) ???? Okay the answer is because Chaka Khan is the better than gloria ever will be and ever was!!! And YOUR the IDIOT and the dumb ass because who needs to learn their history before you jump on a computer and make a FOOL of yourself.

  • Man they can make a sandwish anytime with me

  • its better chaka sing that song w/ gloria e. and whitney....i like that song..

  • You must be crazy Whitney Houston is better than Gloria Estan. Truth be told you can't even compare neither one of them to Chaka Khan because she is the best.

  • Please learn how to spell...LOL Your making a fool of yourself and when was the last time you listened to a Gloria Estefan song she is bilingual and has had multiple #1 Hits in both languages...I would not be comparing a CRACK HEAD like Whitney WHO?ston to anybody... look below idiot can Chaka or Whitney say the same... Michelle Obama Welcomes Gloria Estefan, Jose Feliciano, George Lopez, Los Lobos

  • Look dumb ass please read what you are trying to say before you put it on youtube because you are making yourself look too stupid. And what the fuck are you trying to say Michelle Obama did? Matter fact don't even tell me because I don't give a fuck. Chaka Khan and Whitney Houston has had more hits than any bilingual latino. Please dont talk about #1 Hits because Whitney Houston and Chaka Khan have more #1 Hits than that gloria bitch will and has every had. Please do your research!!! Dumbass!!

  • @CMGOMEZ71 Gloria Estefan is very talented but her voice cannot compare to the likes of Whitney Houston or Chaka Khan. Whitney Houston is one of the most successful female singers on this planet. Whitney Houston has recently had a number one album. What about Gloria?

  • Comment removed

  • @CMGOMEZ71 Gloria's last album was not a #1 on the Pop charts. Actually Chaka Khan last album did better "Funk This" and like I said Whitney Houston has a recent #1 Pop Hit album. Gloria sold a mere 23,000 copies in a week. Whitney possibly sold that in a day.lol Your ignorance surprises me.

  • Dude YOU'RE the idiot- 'Funk This' had only sold 166,000 copies by Febuary of 2008. As of 2009, that is a certified GOLD album, meaning it had sold in an excess of 500,000 copies.

  • Comment removed

  • My point is dont you call someone an idiot when you yourself dont know the record sales for an album that youre trying to defend. 160K albums was 2 years ago. Its over 500k now, so get with the times or stfu

  • Comment removed

  • You're the DUMB FUCK turning this into a race issue, and if you look around, YOU ARE ALONE. Yes, I am going to place Chaka ahead of Gloria because I DON'T LIKE GLORIA. YOU'RE DUMBASS MAKES IT SEEM LIKE IF I DONT LIKE GLORIA, IM A RACIST. DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT TASTES? SINCE YOU LIKE THROWING RACE AROUND, YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY RACIST TO BLACK PEOPLE, SINCE YOU DON'T THINK CHAKA CAN BE BETTER THAN GLORIA. RACIST DUMB FUCK, GET THE FUCK OUT AND DIE!!

  • its ok that youre proven wrong. just live with it

  • Comment removed

  • @MrStyle23 To be fair Whitney can't sing live like she does on record.

  • @DaxShaw Whitney can't sing live now like she use to on record but don't say she could never sing live like she did on record. Actually Whitney is one of the few artists that sings better live than on record.

  • @QueenBritney89 Whitney can't sing anymore. Crack ruined her voice

  • Love Gloria! Love Chaka! Nice duet. Gloria held her own on this song. Good harmony.

  • That was good(except the cut off) I am glad that Gloria took the harmony and not try to sing the melody with Chaka. That would have been not nice. As it turned out it was lovely. To mega stars entertaining together with no competing egos and in admirattion of each other.

  • I like the energy of these two together. This is a could clip to close of an evening of You Tube, strange cut off or not!

  • gloria was nice

  • Gloria has no voice.....Chka is way better here!Hr duet with Kelly price was better cause Kelly is one freaking awesome singer!

  • Ohhhhhhhhhh !!! Sooooooo GOOD !!! ... " My man, I WILL walk thru the FIRE just to be with YOU."

  • Gloria!!!!

    I love!!!!

  • The band is amazing!

  • Why did it cut of? That sucks!

  • gloria did a good job...but any1 having a duet with chaka should only be a chaka...and since theres only one....well...you get what im saying...nice duet though...its obvious chaka tamed herself in this but you can tell she wanted to let loose....chaka never tries to out or over sing her duet partner....i love her for that

  • i agree such a difficult song, sing with CK, both are great

  • what a duet!

  • eu simplismente amo

  • ARRETADO........

  • S@#$ this song makes me cry!

  • great to hear chaka sing this but doing a duet with her... suicide! you'll run out of breath! She'll outstage anyone... seems she'll never run out of air!

  • Gloria, bless her couldn't keep up. Chaka is just unbeatable in the voice department.

  • "Seven octave vocal range" that's bullshit.

  • Comment removed

  • thats so cool!!!! never heard of a "male whiteny houston" but that certainly is a complment! cause whitney is damn amazing!!

  • Comment removed

  • Gloria still can't sing. Get over it. Also I am about to be famous, I have a record deal with a major record label. I am working with very famous producers and my CD will be out in the Spring of 2010. So I know what I'm talking about. I am being promoted as the male Whitney Houston with a 7 octave vocal range. Can Gloria say the same?

  • Comment removed

  • You're a LOSER!!!! Win was the last time gloria had a hit song??? (thinking)???(thinking) me too.. She doesn't have one that is known across the world like Whitney Houston.Truth be told she's not even in Chaka Khan and Whitney Houston's lead.

  • Gloria must be a legend in your house because I have never heard of before I watched this video.

  • Bitch FUCK latin legend and FUCK that bitch gloria and u

  • Nice.

  • i love it!

    is there a way where i can download this song?

  • limewire

  • thanks!

  • check out Renee Olstead doing this song...

    one of the greatest songs ever.

  • is it on youtube? i couldn't find it

  • the best!

  • this is a more subtle version of through the fire

  • 1:17 to 1:30 the best

  • I love Gloria E.. But Chaka Is a BEAST! This was a massacre!  ESTOY DE ACUERDO ES IMPRESIONANTE LA VOS DE CHAKA KHAN ADEMAS DE SER SEXY

  • I love Gloria E.. But Chaka Is a BEAST! This was a massacre!

  • Yeah i like the 1 wit Kelly better but I stilll love how Chaka makes it work by blending wit Gloria.

  • I'm sorry but Gloria is an ok singer, but like someone said on here, she's better as a background singer. The video with Chaka Khan and Kelly Price doing this same song, sounds much more like a duet.

  • even though Gloria's far from beinggood enough for this song, their voices together match beautiful! Gloria's voice makes a good back up for chaka's powerful voice! i liked it!

  • Comment removed

  • and im from the philippines.... it looks like manny pacquiao beat oscar delahoya...ha ha ha

  • I'm mexican, and I love Gloria Stefan.. but I must admit that this is like watching a box match between Tyson vs Julio Cesar Chavez jeje

  • i like your opinion!!

  • It's like watching a soccer match between Brazil and Mexico ;)

  • Ahahah that was pretty funny!

  • chaka is so great to bad she had to drag her along gloria sucks

  • Comment removed

  • Chaka held back,severely..lol..Chaka's just being a professional duet partner..never known to upstage anybody.

  • Chaka khan was being nice with gloria because she could have wailed and therefore upstage poor gloria. her voice is too powerful for gloria

  • so true, im latino, i love gloria, her voice is so beautiful, but nost meant for this song, nor anything that ms chaka touches.

  • i love gloria's hair .. hehehe!

  • WOW chaka held back a whole lot she was bein nice out there. She could have blew like a hurricane but she was so nice to miss gloria. Im just bein real here.

  • Duets get no better then these two really fine vocalists.
