  • Great song! Dionne introduces it as her next single but as far as I know it was only ever a B side. It`s on her Love Songs cd compilation.

    I still can’t believe 3:37-3:47 came out of a human mouth. Dionne is otherworldly in her power in the top notes of her voice.

    The way she belts and phrases seems always near the limit of her voice as if she's about to shout. A very dangerous and extraordinary technique! Love her so much!

      Yes. Although this is the only song of hers that rhat she does that, I am aware of.

    Dionne, this is my first time hearing this live performance of "I didn't mean to love you ".
    Shut the door! I really can not say which was better, this live performance or the recording. Both were done breathtakingly beautiful. This song showcases your fantastic vocal range. The highs and lows were done with effortless qualify. However, in this live performance, you went
    towards the end to notes that I never would have imaged you'd go. This performance was spectacular. Absolutely spectacular! Love you Dionne Warwick. Always have and yet do. One of America's true treasures.

    Wow. Love Dionne, and these live tv posts really show her feeling, control, and power. And here, she pushes the delivery to the very edge. Cannot believe some of the risky vocals she made work, just because she felt it, and took the chance to make it real. It's a whole new aspect of her that is unrevealed in most of her original recordings (which I also love). This isn't the world's best song, but the performance puts it top of my playlist. Testament to live music talent. Many thanks, mezzoman.

      She most definitely had the range she was trained as a gospel soprano growing up. She could sing right beside cissy in the upper register but as she aged and smoked her clarity began to decline but the range was intact for many years. Her voice was just powerful

    Dionne Warwick is my Mentor (we have similar vocals) i have a little feathery reserve pitch in G#5 to E6 ... My limit vocal range.
    Shouting(yes) or Screaming(no!) for female vocals usually misconstrued as Celine Dion Nasal register.
    Not with Miss Warwick! Diaphragm Registers All the Way! Mot even Headtones.

    Sunday morning waking up and touching you
    You’re always warm at 9 a.m
    Pillows close and I can feel you wanting me
    Then I go back to sleep again
    I didn’t mean to love you
    And I never meant to care
    But I guess I never noticed
    Just how often you were there
    Walking on and talking 'till the sun went down
    You kept me warm with just your eyes
    Seems that all we wanted, just came naturally
    We never even had to try
    I didn't mean to love you
    Didn't want to let it show
    No I never meant to tell you
    I'm just too proud to let you know
    Bring back the days when we could talk away our troubles
    Don't tell me things have changed so much
    Please take the time you know it's not so hard to do
    Unless there's nothing left to say
    I guess there's nothing left to say
    No I didn’t mean to love
    I didn’t want to let it show
    I never meant to tell you
    I’m just to proud to let you know
    I didn’t mean no I didn’t mean to need you
    I didn’t want to cry
    No I never meant to loose you
    Oh I never meant goodbye
    No never meant goodbye
    No NO I didn’t mean I didn’t mean to need you
    Never meant to care I guess you can say
    That I never noticed no I never noticed about how often you were there you were there no no no I didn’t mean to loose you
    I never meant goodbye no I never meant goodbye ❤

    I am a European singer (started live radio singing at age Four, they used to put me atop of a chair to reach the hanging No Touch studio microphones) ... Dionne's Phrasings are Dangerous to vocalize.
    She have a "pressed" voice in staccato. Only this kind of voice can put Emphasis to a lyric(s) ... Live is tedious and extremely critical without backing(backup singers) to "shade" the "peak"!

    Thanks for posting this. This was another 'stiff' during her WB years that shouldn't have been. If only WB had got behind this and really promoted it. It is a Joe Porter production and was released in the US at the end of 1976.

    I have two single versions of this by Dionne. A long (5:50) version and a shorter (4:05) version, both promos with mono/stereo versions on each side, so it was indeed the A side. I have a 3rd (stock) copy with the long version on the A side and "He's Not For You" (written by Willie Nelson, no less) on the flip. But my copies are U.S. releases, so it may have been a different case in other countries.

    First time hearing this song. I was a little suspect of the title. My feelings were confirmed as the sentiment strikes me as a little forced and. artificial. Kind of fair to middling not quite on par to the standards of David and Bacharach. PWG

      not to a large degree. it’s emotional enough. she likely doesn’t resonate too much with the meaning of the song. she is still an incredible emotional singer tho. she doesn’t usually come off in that way:)

  • @roki6467

    Helen Reddy’s version is better. There’s something about Dionne’s phrasing that doesn’t quite work at the beginning.

    • @lamaramy4477
      @lamaramy4477 9 місяців тому

      disagree. hers is lackluster to me bc it doesn’t change texture of voice too much and seems to plateau for me emotionally…but i respect u like it better. it does not make it objectively better tho dawg. lmfao. dionne was likely just not feeling this song as much. in the recording her phrasing is smoother tho.
