Happy Days Are Here Again - Vanessa Williams

I have been searching for this clip for a long time and I'm glad I finally found it.
From the time I heard Vanessa Williams sing this live from Atlantic City at the Miss America Pageant I kinda knew that she was going to be crowned the winner. In my opinion a class act.

Yes

[danilo664266]

does anyone else think she has crazy eyes?

[ChipVA]

Wow, funny to see the microphone with a chord attahced! Technology has come a long way!

[Mr40acresandamule]

True. I mean who really can remember other Miss Americas?

[MissoCalifornio]

This case is very interesting: Despite not finishing her reign is the most famous Miss America history, unsurpassed Miss America!!!

It's a great pity that she was forced to resign near the end of her reign because he was doing really well. Here's my eternal love for Vanessa💗

Her eyes don't really look like that. It's poor quality video and tricks of the light. I met Vanessa Williams 2 days before the pageant, and her eyes were an incredible pale green, and absolutely mesmerizing.

[MyFistFullOfDollars]

So creepy... she does't blink.

[MultiFierce]

i love her

@danilo664266

she does have crazy eyes there ( I was thinking the same thing)

@Devon3579 - Of course there are very famous people out there who are famous based on their looks more so than their talent. However, since Vanessa has had a long recording career (25 years now), two starring roles on Broadway (both difficult roles, one of them a Sondheim lead), several starring roles in film and two successful television series, the ladies you compare her to are YOUR flawed premise. We'll see how long they last and how much they accomplish. Time will tell.

[Devon3579]

@BabyDillGerkin I usually try hard to respect other opinions, but your premise is highly flawed. You reserve the right to like whomever you choose. However, you can't tell me that Vanessa Williams was better because she's had a long career. LOL! Rihanna, Katy Perry...the list goes on. Those ladies cannot sing that well at all, but are far more famous than Jennifer Hudson, Chrisette Michelle etc. There are quite a few factors that play into long careers of which talent is barely one.

@Parker528 There is no way that you can tell me that Vanessa Williams is more talented than Suzette Charles.

[Parker528]

@josbo51715 Uh, no she didn't win because of the song she chose. The points between her and Suzette weren't close enough to credit it to Vanessa's talent. The win for almost every winner is the preilminary interview,.
