  • OMG!!! they ROCKED IT!! I LOVED it. 2 very talented singers and MY FAV

  • this is beautiful. love it

  • poor imitation...

  • GREAT

  • bringin back old momery.

    

  • FIERCE!

  • This is Great... ♥♥♥

  • i cant forget him :(

  • this is fabulous

  • i like the way monica ripped it with her own brand of soul without taking any back seat to mary j blige even though the crowd was obviously in mary's camp. both did a sensational job on this, but i just like the way poor, beautiful, (they think i'm not as soulful as mary), monica stood there and just said with her performance---"In your face"............

  • 23 PEOPLE ARE SOME HATERS BECAUSE THEIR WORLD IS DRENCHED BLUE NOT MISTY BLUE

  • monica sound just like she did on the audio.. aha..!

  • Comment removed

  • damn this rendition was so soulful, i can just feel it! i love you both, and this song is my cutt!!!!! yall smashed it!!!! job well done beauties! xoxo -mz ginger!

  • SOLID AZ ! MONICA AND MJ

  • SANG! Rihan-WHO?

  • kewl az...full stop hahaha

  • I love this rendition of this. Yes, MJ was in bad shape, but she sounded relatively good considering. Ive been a fan for ages, during this period she wasn't known for great vocal performances, but this was good! Monica is just gifted, what can you even say about her other than she sounds amazing!

  • Get it girls!

  • I love the way they duet. It is now one of my favorite song...

  • a very good rendition only spoilt by the screaming audience. Good try ladies, even Dorothy might agree.

  • @1945nairda I agree. Let Dorothy decide!

  • I love both of them. This is the mary i remeber with that rasp voice love it! Monica with her powerful voice. :D best i seen on youtube singing together. They really need to make a song together.

  • i`m pretty old-school and Dorothy Moore`s version is one of the best, a classic, but these 2 ladies really pour heart and soul and create a superb rendition which I love to bits

  • iRemember iwass little and i use t2 juss sit around and listen t2 thss song buy mary j livee and thats why i love it but monica did great ass well they send chills up my whole body.! <3 them both

  • I remember this my moms still has this on tape I loves this

  • Now i love Mary... But She was high and on drugs BAD during this song... But glad she off dat stuff now.....

  • well done no injustice done there. good cover xx

  • I love the Dorothy Moore original of this, but as covers go this was excellent, I actually loved the rawness in MJ's voice, I think it added a sadder feel to the song... my opinion. believe it or not this was originally a country song sung by Eddie Arnold back in the 50's

  • Comment removed

  • love Monica. She has a beautiful voice and sings this song beautifully, but Mary captures the soufulness and rawness of it.

  • monica is top five all time..sexiest women on earth

  • monica is very very very sexy

  • What makes me like this song is that they Felt the soul in this!!!! they did a great cover of the song. better then a lot i have heard from other artists

  • Would have been tempting for them both to over trill and over run this...but both were restrained and stayed true to a classic soul ballad! Loved it.

  • I loved it! I miss when only special voices were put on the radio... *rolls eyes REAL hard at Ciara & Rihanna*

  • Mary's singing is brilliant but Monica ruins it by singing behind the beat the whole time. Still not a patch on Dorothy Moore's original though.

  • Mean version and they both do it justice tauke mahi

  • I really wanna hear Mary sing this by herself...her voice is strong to carry it and fits perfect.

  • @ria20772 on monica's cd angel of mine, she covers the song by herself. she sounds great for the remake. mary's voice is too raspy and she sounds like she is straining. both did a good job though. i love them both dearly. been a fan since i was 7, 24 now!!

  • @ria20772 Mary did sing this song by herself on her live album (The Tour Album.) She killed it on that album and it was live. Both Mary and Monica did justice to this song on their albums.

  • @yokkamo...slaughtered? I hardly think so! I know its your opinion and this is mine... but really? Ive heard artists "over sing" or "under sing" a cover that sounded like nails on a chalk board but this wasnt one of those times. Monica & Mary are hugley talented and did a fabulous job. No one is going 2 sound exactly like Dorothy but they did it justice. Its a SOULFUL heartfelt LOVE song...they did a great job. Id hate to hear what you call good vocals if u call this cover slaughter...

  • @mcoordinator u couldn't have sed it better, this song has been done in a soulful beautiful and excellent surroundings by these 2 wonderful artists I jst luv it

  • over sung and slaughtered.....it rarely pays to re-work a classic....Dorothy Moore gives one of the best vocal performances of all time....

  • Glad this got posted. Both ladies did a wonderful job. Nothing negative to say because there was nothing negative about the performance.

  • I love Mary J Blige and Monica but Mary is very faux pas, she needs someone to advise her on how to dress and look on stage

  • OMG!I've never heard this song b4!Love it.

  • @TheHideg8 wat the hell lol i glad you finally heard it.

  • Mary J. Blige's smoky voice at 2:22 and again at 2:57 is so unbelievably soulful and beautiful that it almost brings tears to my eyes.

  • why would you want powerful singers to sing a song like this ? They had the right people sing it , voices were nice and soft with the music all that yelling that fantasia and Jennifer do would've made the song sound like crap

  • Mary J blige u are the ultimate best!!!!!

  • Raw/soulful from Mary along with the beautiful/skilled & controlled honey voice from Monica...forget about it! Almost brings tears to my eyes....actually it did.

  • Monica did a bad ass job!! I alwayz gotta go with my originals though..Dorothy Moore

  • love me some mary misty blue

  • This is such a B E A U T F U L sonq and they rock it !!

    Best version iv heard so far , harmonizinq toqether and Mary's

    Rustic/Husky voice with Monica's Youthful voice !!

    They both Compliment each other and work so well !!

  • they sang that, together...usually duets seem to be competitive but not this 1.

  • Now this real Soul!!!! M & M baby

  • love MJB that junkie can sang..give me her, and rehab anydat

  • Mary's voice is like no others.....it's so soulful!!!!!!

  • I'm sorry something about Marys Voice is touching. its Deep!. goes deep into you could. here's a idea people. dont listen to the vocals..try to feels it. Close ur eyes. and listen, you can here a diff side of it.

    thats how u can tell if someone has soul and can really move the world

  • Monica sounded nice too.. Love you Mary

  • Mary did her thing on this..

  • nice, very very nice, and I was just listening to Dorothy Moore. great voices <3

  • Mary used to be so down back in the day.... God had a plan for our girl! Its written all over her body that she was hurtin :(

  • @te5041 Sorry clicked on the down by accident..Totally agree with you..

  • Mary J is the best

  • MARY U BETTER SING IT GIRL..I LOVE MARY

  • monica still has some maturing to do vocally. She missing that soulful fair to her voice in this song but shes young so she gets a pass. Mary well.. is just mary shes awesome as always. : D

  • beautiful...brings back memories! :(

  • they both did a good job, cause their voices are unique, but don't nobody sing it like gladys!!

  • Monica killed mary on this

  • BEAUTIFUL VVVVERRRYYYYY BEAUTIFUL

  • This is what a duet is all about. Two great singers sharing the stage and entertaining the crowd, and not trying to out sing each other. Great song!!!! Job well done by two talented women.

  • Both gave it just the right amount of soul to stay true to the song - it's not always about crazy vocals lol

  • Comment removed

  • Mary make a grown damn man!!! get weak in the knees,,when she goes in, do dat girl,, do dat any way you want.

  • two talented singers why the negative comparisons can anyone on forum sing this good what a beautiful gift to all who love music

    if you want o know where im coming from look up sonic euphoria song ..frailty that is my son "singing" and ive listened to that for 8 years lol

  • luvd that...i just wish they had both started going crazy with the vocals, that woulda brought the house down...they were playing safe...but still sounded dope!

  • Who's Monica? She do nails?

  • @REALandRAWW stupid!

  • I love both of these artist.

  • Great video, keep it coming. New music from BRANDON JAROD coming soon!

  • so smooth but yet so raw. couldnt think of any better two for this song. so much soul and blues.

  • Damn They killed It!!! Monica's sweetness mixed with mary's Rawness balances out perfectly. love this version.

  • couldnt have asked for a better two

  • they both seem to be singing off key

  • Right on!!!! You go ladies!!! All I got to say is nice, nice baby!!!!

  • DAY BOTH ROCK DAT

  • @ bluscorpion, yes the high bitch killed it. they both sounded good.

  • Monica ate mary j blige up..her voice has clarity...no doubt one for monica

  • I was reacting just like the crowd when Mary started sanging!!!! YAAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!!! Mary put pain in that song! Is it just me that be making the stank face whenever Mary sings? Shaking ya head no, but u really mean yes, sang heffa!!! Lol

  • mary was pissed at monica dragging the song at 3:15 LOLOLOLLMAO

  • @lexx4eva74 No she wasn't... She pointed at her.... that was planned for Monica to do her next part so they could finish the runoff of the song....

  • I am die hard fans of them both! Monica is singing! Mary is sanging, she makes you feel the pain! But my girl Monica is laying that song down while rocking that classy swag! YALL GO GIRLS!!!

  • High or not, that bitch is singing... notice how the crowd reacted when she started singing... she puts that "cry" in the song, make you feel it. 

  • @bluscorpion ur so right about that high part LLS. mary has such a unique voice, i luv it. monica sounded good too. but the high bitch killed it.

  • THE TRUTH HURTS...LOL

  • I think they are both unique and no one should compare no one to someone else....each person has there own specialty...lets just al let everyone one do there own thing and not compare or dis wether ti's the same or different race..

  • Mary is higher than a kite.lol

  • -ii remember one day ii wasx like 3 or4 my lil ass wasx iin the tub and my mama had thiisx warewolf mask and she kept on peakiin around the corner to see iif ii was qne see her and when ii dhiid ii thought ii died lolsx and ii was hufffinq and puffinq....memories like ah muq

  • Have been listening to the Dorothy Moore version over and over, much prefer it .

    Should be sung as a solo always.

  • @helengardiner100 , that's cause your smart, the original is the best.

  • Mary was holding back! lol she looked like she ddnt even care lol...Monica has a always had a beautiful voice as well, you cld tell was'nt nobody tyrna out sing each other becuase they seemed to be focused on the vision of the performance, you could tell they were both conscious of where each other were suppose to come in...ALL AND ALL THEY ARE BOTH OF TWO OF THE GREATEST SINGERS OF OUR GENRE OF MUSIC IN ONLY THAT CATAGORY OF SUCH LIKE FAITH EVENS,LUAREN HILL,ERICA BADU and etc. Women of 90's!

  • Dorothy Moore did this song best...even better than the origonal singer. I love both Monica and Mary j. but they sang this song like they were in a middle school talent show

  • Mary J! Luv u girl!

  • great, but i still like Dorothy Moore better

  • Dorothy Moores 1976 big hit is safe from these 2 younger singers whom she blows away. Aint even close. Cant touch this one.

  • Comment removed

  • monica brings it!

  • i soo sooo love this song

  • I don't know what some of these other commenters are talking about (@craigathonian), but I believe that they are truly tapping into the essence of this song and I definitely feel their emotion.

  • damn i love this song!!

  • what the what!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Folks always hatin on Mary. But cant no one do it like Mary J. on her worse day. You go Mary YOu BADDDD SuPPPPa Bad

  • sorry no cigar,jennifer hudson & fantasia or Beyonce.....would have really killed this song the way it should have been killed...the way Ms.moore use 2 kill it...but respect 2 them both 4 paying homage.........

  • @gscott2130 those girls you named can sing it but it wouldnt be this soulfull and great

  • @gscott2130 this is a song for real singers jennifer and fantasia are sangers they would be yelling so loud we wouldnt be able to her background music

  • @chocolat6irl No hate for Mary or anyone else. Dorothy Moore puts something magical and haunting on this song - for me - that no one else does. In my mind, no one else puts the mix of desire, memory, and weight of missing someone on this like Ms. Moore. Yeah, all that.

  • I love Mary but this was at a low point in her personal life. Mo held it down.

  • Two dynamic talents and voices, each in her own right. Great!

  • is it just me or does mary look as high as a kite?

  • @kelita2u

    'splains the dark shades ;-)

  • @kelita2u she does look blowed!

  • its a pretty good duet between them /and i love this song

    rockon50

  • Not feeling this AT ALL! Songs are not writing just for anyone. I don't care who you are, if the singer isn't tapping into the essence of what's written through some personal experience it will always come off flat and lifeless, much like here.  I always wanted Chaka Khan to do a remake of this classic beauty. Shame she didn't.

  • that was not august 2008

  • y mary look hit?

  • thank god mary has gotting so much better on the vocal skills since this

  • na voz de DOROTHY MOORE essa música tambéme demaisssssssss

  • These HipHop divas took us back 2 old school. L

  • mary can blow

  • Mary cant sing for shitt!

  • Mary J Blige Was Too Cool With It...lol...

  • Monica sold over 15 million records and it aint no way in hell she only sold 4.8 million in tha states because MT was triple platium, TBIM was triple platium so WTF...you cant count idiot

  • big tune

  • Monica killed it

  • jesus christ Monica looks hot

  • FLOPica IS THE BIGGEST FLOP OF ALL TIMES....SELLING 4.8 MILLION ALBUMS IN THE STATES. A MAJOR FAIL!

  • beautiful song... Dorothy Moore must be proud to hear her song sung with conviction...HereForMary1, you are vulgar and without integrity. Mary would not be in the company of someone like yourself so you are not a friend of hers, mine or anyone else I can think of. Go outside take a breath of fresh air and reality... This is about the song and great singers not someone like you...

  • Dorothy Moore still holds the diamonds on this one. These two need to kiss Dorothy's feet, and pack it on up.

  • @TheJimmyPopcorn THANK YOU!

  • I really don't understand the animosity that HereForMary1 has, but I think that because of her vocal actions, she should be banned from this site. She uses WAY too my fulgarity towards people she doesn't even know. The name calling is uncalled for, and I think that something needs to be done about it. Maybe I will report her....who seconds that notion?

  • @Dmostbaddest i second and third lol

  • I think this performance was on point. This was not Mary's best but still a good one. So what if she was under the influence? It was the past. Too many gifted artists fall prey to drug abuse and never conquer their addiction. She learned her lesson and cleaned up her act. I have a lot of respect for Mary because she has payed her dues and come a long way. I doubt she'd still be she around if she stayed on that shit.

  • im not kissing mary ass her voice wasnt a 100 % but she still gave you alot of soul and made you feel what her and monica was doing

  • They sound pretty good on an old country song from the 1960's.

  • i love you ladies

  • You guys kiss mary j. blige ass just cause she marry ya'll need to be real she sounded a mess and u can cleary see she stoned she even messed up some parts...but monica did her thing
