I saw her in concert in 1994 and she sang this song. When she walked away from the mic it was amazing how her voice carried through the theater. Great!
She was 50 here!!! 50! Singers today losing their voices In their 30s and early 40s but Patti was and still is going strong in 2017, albeit not as strong as she once was but still strong.... Love this performance. The power and pain in her voice
Patti's voice aged so beautifully. I can't think of any other singer who actually kept getting better well into their 60s. And she still sounds good today in her 70s!
Patti was touched by thinking of her sister Jackie who passed and was crying as this song could describe their relationship.Jackie was always in Patti's corner especially in the early 80s before she passed wanting Patti to get the fame and recognition she so deserved and wanting more for Patti. Luckily after songs New Attitude and Stir it Up and Patti's Winner in You Patti's star was ascending to its righteous place as no one worked harder than Patti to give awe inspiring shows and performances and Jackie got to see and know it was happening for her beloved sister. Jackie was so special, kind, nice - funny, pretty and after meeting her at Patti's shows you would soon know she was Patti's hero ! When a song is sung with such honesty, humility and beautifully through her life's eyes it is perfect.
To all the negative comments, U may think this wasnt one her BEST performance, but if ur paying close attention, Mamma was extremely emotional in the beginning which caused her to have difficulties with her voice.So I think, the reason she decided to pull tricks out of her bag is because she felt the need to redeem herself. Note Patti love her fans, and constantly aims to give them the BEST, and that's what she felt she had to do in the nic of time!..I personally think she did a GREAT job.
While there are so many great Patti performances on here, I always come back to this one! I agree with a previous poster, Patti comes back and just starts hitting notes and holdin 'em and i start cryin! A national treasure! I love her
I have watched almost every Patti performance on here-most of them I have on video/DVD as well! This is my fave, I think she was fantastic and at the end of this hit a Grand Slam with that last note! SHe is a national treasure!
@@simistop3964that’s not at all what she said. She’s not calling her “lady man”. It’s like sayin “come on man” or to reword the original comment “Man, I love this lady.”
One of the greatest divas of all time. There is only one Patti and I thank God for blessing me to have been around to witness her sharing her gift with the world. Thanks for posting this.
I got nuttin. Beig recently confined to this wheelchair, the version of this song is breaking my heart. The musician who sang this at my Mom's funeral changed it to "SHERO". My heart is breaking right now.
people leave comments like she wakes up and is 110% everyday. this is her job, and every time she performs she is not going to be 110% but i do agree with you, but for some reason, i believe that she had been doing this for years?

The thing that amazes me is she was in her 50’s and had an AMAZING voice ! And to this date with 73 years of age Patti LaBelle still delivers !

Patti left no crumbs

Mama Patti just knows how to make it look like she wrote record and produce a damn song
CHILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS lady gives me chills!
Luv my Patti Labelle! She has a power voice!!!!
This was one hell of a moving performance by Patti.

I had to watch some Patti with Prince on my mind.
The absolute power of the soul................
This is as much her song as Bette's and she sung it for years before Bette touched it.
Queen Patti!!
Thank you ubbigubbi for posting this! I was in the audience when this was filmed. There wasn't a dry eye in the room!!!!!
She is pure SOUL.the hottest Soul DIVA.
PRICELESS!!!!
Yeeessss Miss Patti!
You must go to work everyday and give 110% every single day. No mistakes, no faults, just pure perfection, 110%.
Are you insane? Do you realize how nonsensical this is?
patti patti patti

Fantastic job Mama P.
I would like to dedicate this song/performance to The Late King of Pop, Michael Jackson!
no one else
BRAVA😢❤
wonderful!!!
🤯🤯🤯🤗🤗
damn momma u did that with no microphone
She paid the rent.
I think she put down a huge down payment on her home and just paid the whole thing off
No, She paid off all 3 houses; one just barley outside of Philly, one in L.A, and one in the
Caribbean/west indies.
Light bill, gas, tuition and a few car notes too!!
Lamar Dorsey
You know, I had forgotten about her part in the movie..I gotcha.
@@torog4727 what movie?!!!!
She ate the mic.
I don’t think yk what that means lol. B/c she did the opposite
people leave comments like she wakes up and is 110% everyday. this is her job, and every time she performs she is not going to be 110%
but i do agree with you, but for some reason, i believe that she had been doing this for years?
She changed the words from My seeet Sister to you ppl, 🤷🏾♀️
ddduuhhhh!!!
PANDAMONIUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who ever your reffering to about patti singing some to the grave wouldn't be Aretha in her prime or Whitney for that matter.
2018
No she got some lungs, wow.
3:42-3:45-3:49-3:51-3:56
WHAT A GAL....AND CAN SHE EVER SING!!!
Patti will tell you that kegel exercises are essential to maintaining your voice. A tight cooter leads to flexible chords.
