JENNIFER RUSH V LAURA BRANIGAN The Power Of Love
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- A very different vibe to my last post with two rock chicks together; here I have two big voiced American singers on one of the biggest songs of the era of big hair and oversized shoulder pads - the 1980's! 'The Power Of Love' was first recorded in 1984 by one of its co-writers - Jennifer Rush, and the song was HUGE around the world; including here in Australia where it made #1; and in Britain where it became the best selling single of 1985; the 9th highest for the entire decade, and the first woman to achieve a million selling single in that country! Quite incredulously, America didn't embrace their own songstress with 'The Power Of Love' not even cracking the Billboard Top 40.
Maybe it was because Jennifer was based in Germany, but despite a prolific recording career and major success in Europe and in Australasia, only one track bearing her name cracked the Billboard Top 40 - a duet with Elton John 'Flames of Paradise' which made #36 in 1987.
'The Power Of Love' has been famously covered many times since the original landed - most notably Air Supply's in 1985 (the same year it charted for Jennifer) and Celine Dion who recorded it in 1993. But I decided to pit another big voiced singer against the mighty Jennifer Rush - the late, and great Laura Branigan who could belt out the ballads as well as the dance and pop confections that made her a name around the world with hits such as 'Gloria', 'Self Control' and 'Solitaire' just to name a few. Laura recorded this classic in 1987 for her 'Touch' LP and it would become her final Top 40 outing, reaching #26 on the Billboard chart.
Pitting Laura and Jennifer feels like a fair fight, but i did consider throwing in Celine Dion, but apart from that being probably weighted towards the French Canadian, that would simply be too much power and too much power of love! So fellow youtubers, who wins this battle?
Laura branigan the best its simple voice ❤❤❤
I love Laura’s huskier version. It has more emotions and power. ❤❤
I love both....
Laura is like so much passion energy not exaggerating but almost feels like a different dimension extraordinary can't explain what my spirit feels when I hear her voice going above normal human capabilities she is my favorite Jennifer Rush is pure and beautiful fantastic singing
laura branigan es la dueña de esta canción su voz es única su voz te emociona te hace llorar te llega al alma te amo laura branigan
YES ,I FEEL IT😢🎉😊
I agre
Thanks 🙏👍
Jennifer Rush version is a performance. Laura's version is believable, raw emotion. She reaches down deep inside, grabs you and won't let go until she is ready.
such a fascinating range of reactions and thoughts to my post - thank you Scott for adding so eloquently to it. cheers; Dave
Yenifer eres la mejor x lejos..única tu vos.❤🎉❤🎉❤
I admit that I heard Laura Branigan's version first and always thought it was a great song by a fantastic singer. After I heard Jennifer Rush's version I found that there was something about it that I liked better, maybe because she co-wrote it. Both singers have such powerful voices. Jennifer is my favorite with Laura a close second. Don't care much for any other versions of this great ballad.
Laurita ya no esta en este mundo pero su voz y canciones nos acompañará siempre .
A melhor interpretação é dessa Deusa: Jennifer Rush.
Laura sings it whit all her soul.
I cannot tell who is the best, but I can feel when it is Jennifer singing.
Nobody will interpret "Gloria" or Self control better than Laura, nobody will interpret "My Heart Will Go On" or "A New Day Has Come" better than Céline... and nobody will interpret "The power of love" better than Jennifer Rush...
B O O M !!!
They're not comparable to each other because they've different approaches in their interpretation in the context along the lines of the songs. So I appreciate them all.
Jennifer I a very beautiful singer rest in peace love her music she is a legend
@@EdwardAnderson-kd1ft She's not dead dude, she's alive and well!
Verdade 👏👏👏👏👏
There’s songs that is the soul of a particular singer this song is Laura Brannigan
Jennifer Rush es la dueña y señora de esta canción, nadie se iguala a ella.
LAURA BRANIGAN...blows her away....
Il n'y a pas de match de mon humble point de vue, ces deux voix sont justes magnifiques, uniques et si intenses ❤! Merci à elles pour leur performance et merci à vous de nous avoir partagé les deux 👍🎇👋.
Laura Branigan just captures me for some reason
Well she's gorgeous but Jennifer absolutely owns this one she just has the voice for it.
Laura ❤
I “missed” Jennifer in her prime-in fact, I only discovered her 2 months ago. I am a big fan of Celine and only discovered Jennifer because I came across Celine’s cover of POL including Jennifer. I couldn’t believe my ears.
I’m 84 and have heard them all, from Ginger Rogers to Edith Piaf to Vera Lynn. Then Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Barbara Streisand, Dusty Springfield, Tammy Wynette, and Bonnie Tyler. Add Gloria Gaynor, Connie Francis, Lauren Branagh, Linda Ronstadt, Rita Coolidge, Celine, Mariah, and Whitney and you have the lineup of the greats right up to Adele and Susan Boyle. But, Jennifer Rush has the all-around best female voice I have ever heard. Her operatic training adds an unmatched vibrato containing depth and texture. And she sings everything: opera, pop, rock, and ballads in English, Spanish, German, and Hungarian. She has written or co-written the lyrics and music for many of her songs, done duets with Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras, Elton John, and Brian May-sorry-Sir Brian May-and performed live all over the world-but not in America, except in March and April 1986 on the Carson show and the Dick Clark Show; that’s it.
Yes. If Jennifer had decided to live her life in the US, she would still be in Las Vegas or on tour.
It would be great if you reacted to 3 more of my favorites: “Who
Wants to Live Forever?”, “Hero of a Fool”, and “Stronghold”.
there is on greatest women that you didn't mention LARA FABIAN she is off this world, one of a kind. look up Adagio , Par Amour ,je suis malade. let me know pls.
@@henkzwartenkot1707 but if you close your eyes Lara sounds very same like Celine Dion
to bad you think nonsingers like Linda Ronstadt and Barbara Streisand...are good and you omit the best singers who were all black...ever hear of Ella Fitzgerald?..how about Billie Holiday....Carmen McRae, ..Etta James..Sarah Vaughan..Dinah Washington....lol...for 84 you sure have missed a lot
@@jadezee6316 Hiya! Last time I looked, Whitney Houston and Dianna Ross were African American; also were Aretha Franklin, Gloria Gaynor, Roberta Flack, and Mariah Carey.
Ella was a tremendous singer in the jazz niche. I loved Etta James but here again, her scope was narrow, as was that of Dinah Washington, Billie Holiday, and Sarah Vaughan.
By the way, you left out Nicole Simone, Dionne Warwick, Lena Horne, Donna Summer, Gladys Knight, Nancy Wilson, and a number of excellent voices from the days of Fats Waller, Wilbert Harrison, Slim Gaillard, Bo Diddley, etc.
Yes, I heard them all many times, but Black or white, we’re talking here about the best all-around singer. All-around includes writing or co-writing some of your songs, a Guinness World Record, singing everything from blues to opera, singing and writing songs in different languages, range, texture, expression, emotion, earthiness-on occasion, sexiness-and on and on. When you check all the boxes, only one remains: Jennifer Rush. Cheers!
Jennifer es tu música viví mis adolescencia con tu música
Laura is my choice. ❤️❤️❤️
Laura Branigan such a voice such a passion ❤ better then original
Laura beneghin the Power of love
@@salvatoregatto6838 not really
Jennifer Rush gets my vote.
thanks Doris. Welcome, if you are new to my channel. cheers; Dave
Im going for Jennifer but love Laura. For me Rush version is more earthy warm sound with operatic technique which i like
Fiecare cu timbrul sau vocal.🎉
No one can sing Power of Love like Jennifer Rush-nothing else to discuss!
Im sorry,she put the feelings into it. When Jennifer sang this song you can feel the power in it brings tears to your eyes ❤❤
WE can discuss how you are totally wrong..
Jennifer is really the best. I hear it the first time and I can say Jennifer is the Best.
Jennifer definitely has a voice of an angel in this song. All genes of every body are strongly emotionally affected. Incredibly beautiful voice. Laura's voice is a bit cold and not so with harmony
*Jennifer* 😍💖💖
Zdecydowanie Laura to są emocje aż gęsia skórka się robi to jest wykon szkoda że nie może zaśpiewać już więcej w realu ale zawsze są nagrania❤
jennifer rush is the great
Celine Dion can't compare with Laura. She owes this song.
As we say in German.
Sehr Schön, Wunderschön!
Prost !
Ce voce ,ce voce ,te apucă frisoane,și se ridică părul pe mini, minunată voce👍💯❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹👍🖐️
Neat. Figured song was a Foster or Warren composition specifically written for Dion. Neat history here.
Thanks :) cheers
Jennifer rush is the best
The two bests versions. The OG and the best cover.
Laura's interpretation is more on rock power ballad styles. It's like you listen to Janis Joplin sing this song. Raw and pure emotions.
Laura hands down..
Один из самых любимых композиции в жизни
I said laura.. the energy.. the power.. blast everything.
Jennifer tiene canta muy bien pero mi favorita Laura branigan la canta con tanta garra que te te hace sentir guau me encanta hasta el cielo❤gracias por dejarnos tu recuerdo
Stupenda ❤
Laura❤️❤️❤️
No entra a discucion mucho menos comparación Jennifer esta tan espléndida cantando este tema escrita por ella misma nadie sele aserca ni poquito nadie cantará esta canción jamás cómo Jennifer Rus voz poderosa eternamente
Tu le sais Jennifer. Rus ma jolie dommage la mort et programme. Ma jolie 😢😢😢😢
Only Jennifer Rush❤❤❤
LAURA BRANIGAN IS THE BEST . OF COURSE FOREVER
What a question, who's better, like what's heaver, a pound of feathers or lead, but Jennifer is number for me, you can hear her much better and not such loud background music, but like to hear them with same band volume. , but these two are very close. I heard Rush sing it live & in person with out a band, unreal how good she is.
Laura’s voice is rock and sexy
Eu amo ouvir essa voz.
Ambas son muy buenas ..cantando está canción 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇦🇷
JENNIFER RUSH ❤
100%
Jenifer Rush voice in the power of love no comparison authentic and stands out
Good MORNING LADY
Bonjour, belles fleurs, en douce symphonie,
Elles se réveillent avec le soleil, apportant la magie,
De mille charmes, en pétales de couleurs,
Je vous remercie, ô précieuses fleurs.
Vous, qui en silence, chantez des mélodies,
Et apaisez l'âme avec vos harmonies,
Nous emplissez d'émotions, nous faites rêver,
Chacune, un talent, une façon d'aimer.
Pour tout ce que vous faites, pour tout ce que vous êtes,
Fleurs du jardin, pure inspiration,
Créées avec amour, par un Créateur divin,
Qui vous écoute et vous voit, dans votre charme fin.
Vous embellissez le jardin, un paradis sans pareil,
Où l'amour fleurit, d'une manière spéciale,
Chaque fleur, un bijou, un poème à éclore,
Merci, chères fleurs, de nous apprendre à aimer.
Jennifer Rush classic song , the composer ,
Wonderfull women !
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
R.I.P Laura.
Confrontate voi queste due bellissime versioni.A me piacciono tuttie e due
They’re both terrific singers, but I have to give the edge to Jennifer Rush
Jennifer Rush ¿Fue la primera que interpretó esta bellísima canción?

BONSOIR CETTE FEMME NE CHANTE PAS DUTOUT COMME JENYFER RUCH OH NON MERCI MYRIAM XX
Jennifer Rush better have afancy❤
Laura branigan 🎉🎉🎉
laura is the besf of heart song power of love.
Jennifer is the best by far. You can just tell she wrote the song
# L . B # J. R # C.Dion forever best 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
@AG CORAL.. a new RING OF ICE REMIX by Jennifer TRush and Stereoact was released. its a remake of the 80s RING OF ICE. will be great if you can do a reaction to that new one. How do you like the new intro, the echo they add, the beats..? its on iTunes and Spotify, and also here on youtube
Only Jennifer, as author and singer...
Jennifer Rush OWNS this song. Laura Branigan's version is very good, but Jennifer's version is on a higher plane. FTR, I am a retired professional music critic with 45+ years experience. Jennifer's version is also one of the 10 Female Pop love songs of all time.
Laura is the best
super super super
Lindo coloca a Celine três divas
Laura 🙋♂️🇨🇱
Il potere dell'amore
Amor pra vc
Vozes poderosa mais Laura é demais essa agressividade rock dela é foda
Both of them have different voice character..
*_what a question....of course Jennifer Rush is the best_*
Branigan for the win
Not even close!!. Jennifer rush by a mile. And that's no disrespect to Laura branigan because I am a big fan of hers but Jennifer rush is the best female singer ever alive or dead
im sorry but your wrong when it comes to best female singer of all the time laura beat jennifer eazy and badly.
All in all Laura's rendition is just a cover of Jennifer's power of love & she is a co-writer & original singer of that song . Both have different approach in their interpretation.
A close tie
Jennifer e poi le altre
У Дженнифер Раш , голос сильнее !
this comparison is NOT COMPLETE, please add CYDEL GABUTERO, and have it an honest comparison. But as for me, I say LAURA's version stands tall over the three beautiful ladies, she exudes passion to the song.
Jennifer Rush much better. ❤
Most definitely Jennifer Rush!! Just absolutely love her voice!! 👌🏻🤍🪽
I must confess, I've never heard Laura Branigan sing this before. And I gotta say, WOW!
She has beautiful high notes, and a growl in her voice that just grabs me.
She's sings it like she owns it. Awesome.
Jennifer Rush is much better than Celine Dion! Top American singer and performer with a superb voice.
Yeah, that must explain why I never even knew Jennifer existed before hearing Celine…
@@vincepirrone4715 JUST BECAUSE YOU NEVER HEARD OF HER DOSEN'T MEAN A DAMN THING. SHE WAS POPULAR IN THE 80S AND 90S.
Para mi las 2 bellas estrellas cantan de lo mejor cada quien a su manera ❤❤ excelente voz de las dos.
JENNIFER 1st LAURA BRANIGAN 2nd CELINE 3rd. They all have different singing styles.Amazing WOMEN.
Jennifer is warmer,sweeter and high enough. It gives you heart beating feeling of all age women, first love, girl friend, wife and mom. You can image a female human being that you can hug, you can kiss, keep close enough.
Laura voice was kissed by God, it’s sound from heaven. I have to purify my soul when listening to this angel.
I really appreciate being able to hear.
Great summation of both versions❤
Laura❤️
For this song, Laura's cover is better than celine and jennifer.
Jennifer is the best, I'm 73 yrs old and I listen to this fantastic song up to now,, love u Jennifer❤
Both have a great voice, but Laura is my choice than Jennifer.
Jennifer's BEST !!!!
LAURA BRANIGAN has a mixture of voices when she pulls out and JENNIFER RUSH a clear transparent voice and holds a high mezzo-soprano note!
laura is d,best song power of love,connected my heart.goodjob......
In the Philippines during 80s,90s even now ,the veraion sound in the air wave is the veraion of Laura Branigan....and no doubt i like the timbre of the voice of Laura B. Ha s Husky 11:16 voice ,rocky....i like it.
