All one can say is WOW! The beautiful Anita "Nita" Whitaker peforms the song wonderfully. She holds a note for 20 seconds at the end of the song. Talent indeed lives within Nita, a singer of note. Anita's recordings can make a nice fit along with those of Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson, Beyonce, to name a few.

  • I remember watching this back in late 89/90.Nita Whitaker

    is such an exceptional vocalist!Not many people know about her,

  • I remember seeing this on TV 20 yrs ago, glad to find this on youtube, however I believe the title of the song is Apiece of sky from the streisand musical Yentl, written by Michel Legrand. The confusion is understandable since both Papa can you hear me & Piece of sky are part of the same musical and shares many similar melodic segments.
