SOME HOW THIS LOVE WAS NO MISTAKE, BABY REMEBER THE TIMES WE EMBRACE, A KISS THAT IS A LOVE TO SHARE AND THE MELODY PLAYING IN THE AIR, BUMP AND GRIND THAT IS THE TIME, TO PEEL THE WRITTINGS OF THE WALL, NEVER GOING BACK BECAUSE OUR LIVES ARE TO LAID BACK, SO LAID BACK FOR BIRDS TO CALL EMBRACING THE SOUND OF A HUMMING BIRDS CALL AND EVERYTIME WE FALL WE WILL ALWAYS HERE THE HUMMING BIRDS CALL LYRICKS BY DEWON MICHEAL STEVENS (WHATSTHENAMEOFYOURTOWN@YAHOO.COM)
The love i feel for you can make all dreams come true and knowing this was not just a kiss our dreams will all come true in a special way our lives will always stay oh so new i cant explain the love I feel for you. (Dewon Micheal Stevens
@Petersenrocks no it is not. those of us around at the time with early video recorders were lucky enough to record it. it was a great show. it is a shame that none of diana's tv shows are on dvd. it does not seem right. maybe there is a plan to release them all when she is gone. who knows.
I grew up knowing she was a force and the reason for so much of what we have today. BUT WOW!!!! I never saw this footage. She may not have the most powerful voice...but she is a powerful force!! and dare I say..staging...costuming...production, I see a lot of Lady B here.......A LOT!!!!! Just saying.....
I've said it before...she killed this. She not only sang us silly, she topped it off when she knelt down and threw the damn mic. Brilliant. Nobody does it better than Ross.
I love the "crazy" that the world has come to know and expect whenever Ross appears. The crazy mannerisms, over the top drag, massive tufts of black hair, throwing microphones...it's all processed and in the end, it all contributes to the magic we've all come to know, love and expect from this national treaasure.
Wow! This lady is the ----! Now what ever happened to our entertainment. It's over, but I won't give up hope. A true icon in action, I can't think of any today that will carry the torch like this. This is just class.......
Diana always had a smoking band and stellar background singers
The funk level is out of sight
They just don't make performers like this anymore....yester year when you had to have the stuff to make it big. This is what I was raised on,....substance!!!!
OMG! I remember. Diana was giving it to them. She was serving up a funky glamour that no one could duplicate. No wonder the girls hated her. She was in her own way outrageous, brash, sexy, soulful, and a total original. She worked that body suit by Issey Mayaki. Amazing performance.
show this and maniac to britney spears and see if she can sing and dance at the same time. this whole show was full of energy. diana hardly stopped moving. show those young ones diana!
@marquise1972 ummmmm actually if u look up Destiny's child Lose my breath on the destiny fulfilled tour u will see that at the end of the song the water falls on them under the waterfall and their whole bodies , hair included gets soak and wet, and they continue to sing and dance.
@cchllover they could only copy the true diva of all times...diana ross. beyonce is still copying her today. see her concert dvd and its like looking at diana is las vegas in the late 70's. diana has donme it all and has many 'firsts'. just saying.
@wonderboyjoy beyonce infuses the essence of Tina Turner, Donna Summer as well as Diana Ross. She has the energy and sex appeal of Tina Turner, the vocal ability and quality and "valley girl" image of Donna Summer and the mass appeal, business notions, stage presence and star quality of Miss Ross :)
@cchllover but this does not sound original......she is not copying one but many...has the girls got any originality? now she will be starring in a remake of a star is born. diana is the true pop diva diva of all time.
@wonderboyjoy If u claim Beyonce doesnt have originality then u would have to say that for ALL current pop stars. I.E. Usher/Michael Jackson, Ciara/Janet Jackson, Britney Spears/Paula Abdul, Lady Gaga/Grace Jones, Christina Aguilera/ Justin Bieber/Michael Jackson i mean the list can go on and on. so ur point is? Mostly everything has been done so u just find creative ways to revamp them. And lets not forget ALL the ppl Diana Ross copied as well. Read her biography.
@cchllover and diana had many FIRSTS in her career. Of course I have read all that I can about Diana. She made a remake of sorts too....The Wiz, though it was original in its presentation. I do say that about all current pop stars. one day we will get some originality back. cheers

@SmoothCinnamonX Beyonce may not be the most articulate speaker i will admit, but she's far from ghetto. Her southern charm makes up for her "alleged" lack of articulation.
Just imagine wearing high heels like she did for that show! I bet her feet were killing her by the time she got to this song. You would never know it though--what a true Diva!
because this was such a huge worldwide event that we had never really seen the likes of before! imagine a solo act playing to that crowd...twice! it must have been overwhelming for her but she handled it well. what confidence she had!
