I totally agree.. this has to be the greatest love duet song ever made. I prefer Mariah and Luther's version too. But a big tribute to the original;s though..
Was this compilation meant to be a competition video? I don't really think so. All four of them are accomplished sangers. I Wish that Luther was still here with us.
No it was never was intended to be a competition video at all,
I had seen someone do this on YT with the song, the sound bites edited differently (and way better than mine), so me being me, thought id do this :) only problem was the only video footage of lionel and dianas i could find was whats here, so had to try fit the Lionel/Diana video with the studio version of theirs, and the Luther/Mariah live version.seems a lot of ppl do think its a 'Vrs' vid, :))
I prefer Luther ~ his voice is so much softer and smooth, so proper tone for this song. And I am a Lionel Richie fan; but for this song: Luther & Mariah!
@rosshangover i ABSOLUTELY agree with you man...the original is the BEST version...the second best version (for me atleast) will be the Peter Andre & Katie Price version...this version of M & L is good...but there's too much unnecessary vocal runs.
Diana and Lionel are clearly superior! What's wrong with these silly kids ears after 1999?! lol The original by them toped the hot 100 chart for several weeks in a row. Mariah and Luther's version didn't even hit number 1 on the big chart at all. Diana and Lionel sang all the notes CORRECTLY instead of all the unnecessary added vocal inflections by their successors. Mariah and Luther sound fine, but they are
I prefer Luther & Mariah's version. Both are much better singers than Lionel & Diana and their voices are just amazing. In terms of interpretation, Lionel & Diana kept it tender and intimate while Mariah & Luther made it more passionate. They give different feelings but neither interpretation is wrong.
Say what you will. Whitney, Mariah , Patty, Aretha, Brandy, Beyonce, Chaka, Mary J. and Donna have all paid tribute to Diana Ross! Good words from Dionne and Roberta too! No love from Gladys though.
A great video. Lionel and Diana are awesome. Luther and Mariah are awesome. Together it is better than the original. GREAT job John McGrath. I'm impressed.
Mariah and Luther are XLNT singers, no doubt - - but you can't touch the elegance and class of Miss Ross with Lionel Richie. Their interpretation was so up-scale and, for Miss Ross, so entirely FEMININE. It's like comparing A-Listers with kids doing really well at a Collegiate Variety Show.
This is the more gentle, tamed version. I like it just as much as Luther's & Mariahs's. Just a different version that's all! Lionel's & Diana Ross's version has less riffs...scats, that's all.
I love the way this video is superimposed with all 4 of them singing this song!!! GREAT IDEA. MAke more videos like this with folks singing the same song. SO FREAKIN' COOL
Please do a video with whitney and her brother singing with mariah and luther. That will be the icing on the cake! Trust! If yall all agree please give a thumbs up!
@johnmcgrath6827a Forget which version is better, you can't get the "Power of Love" better than this, regardless of whether you're listening to Luther and Mariah or Lionel and Diana! This is absolutely an amazing video combining both.
I think i like the original better. I like mariah and luther, however i think they do your yeah yeah ohoh to much or something and yes to much warbling, lol the originals are soft and strong and powerful with out trying to hard!
Diana and Lionel performed this live at the Academy Awards, and I see some nervousness. It's a lovely performance. Mariah and Luther sang this beautifully with all the artistic flourishes. Different performances, both excellent.
I Love Luther and Diana, there is more lust in there voices, It makes my heart melt, Mariah is a great singer just she seems to over power Luther and they are both seem like they are just trying there hardest to escalate there pitches and hold a note for as long as possible.
Lionel Richie and Diana Ross kept the lovesong very tender. Mariah and Luther Vandross made it a very emotional lovesong. Both versions are very great and I don't wanna choose because I enjoy listening to both versions.
Many years ago I heard this young girl singing this song down the hallway at school not realizing someone was behind her. I offered to accompany her on guitar at the high school talent show. She is African American,I'm Mexican American but the music came through and she won the show, with some confidence she had her moment and I will never forget that night.
How phoney and tragic are these lyrics. Kinds of funny. Like listening to a Disney story- The dumb-assed Princess-the one who can't find her prince and if so, loses him to some reject, some other dumb ass. Anything un-endless about this havoc. I have always thought this song makes no sense to anyone or anything real and right.. Everything has an ending including the ones we try to make loved and loveable.
wow you are really sad i hope that you find true love in your like so you can understand this song and trust me if you dont understand this song then you have not found real love
Mariah's voice is SUBLIME !!!!!!!!!!!
