Although Diana may not consider herself a soul singer, she actually is. She just seems her soul in a sophisticated manner. That's why I like her, because it's soulful, but still easy on my ears.
She is singing live in freezing weather, walking down stairs of the Lincoln memorial in a long dress and not missing the beat and hitting them high notes at the end. The woman is incredibly talented.
I've never forgotten this performance after watching it live, Diana put the soul into this rendition of God Bless America, and she did it in freezing conditions.
Miss Ross has talent and style like NO other, and she Nailed that song , oh, Love the red white and blue outfit on her, what a trend setter she is. 2018
#AbsolutePerfection! I especially love how Diana shut it down at the end with that explosive high note! From her beautiful gown, hair, and makeup to her vocals and background singers and the band, it was complete perfection. Anyone who remembers President Clinton's unforgettable 1st inauguration will undoubtedly never forget Ms Ross making yet another unforgettable statement. This is right up there with her 1983 Central Park concert.
The only female star to have ever had it all. Beautiful voice across so many musical genres. No one so beautiful in looks. A gorgeous face. Beautiful eyes, hair, lips, teeth...beautiful body. A genuine acting talent. Elegance, glamour, femininity, class...even a lovely speaking voice. A singer you can lay down and close your eyes to listen to or get up and dance to. A singer to cry to and, with her jazz output, a singer to get stoned to. Someone to spend Christmas with. An entertainer that danced with Sammy Davies Jr. and did comedy skits. A singer, actress, dancer, model and author. She didn't over-sing like Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey. She didn't scream and wail like so many black singers. She didn't sound like a schoolgirl like Madonna. Barbra Streisand had the voice but not the looks or personality, had a limited musical range, and couldn't dance a step. Tina Turner - an awesome rock & roller but not someone you really listened to and, once again, limited musically. Cher- not someone you really listened to or took seriously. She was just someone to look at. None of them had it all except Diana Ross. Not Garland, not even Doris Day.
Simply the best. If I comment on this video one more time, Diana Ross herself will tell me to shut up! I just love this performance. Diana Ross is amazing!!!
She nailed it! As a Platinum Level Diana Ross Fan, sometimes when watching her sing totally live, I watch with pins and needles. It is not until I step away from the anticipation of a live performance, that I can honestly love every moment!
Like a fine wine get's better as it age's. When God points his finger at you and you and you say yes to his call. God, takes you to a place up in the heavens and the world will know your name. . Sing, Diana Sing!
+shoe909 if was a very exciting event and pleasant experience. she is a regal woman in appearance and truly a diva in character. however, she's earned the right. it was cold as heck out there but I would do it again.
Not really! She has a strong voice. Her voice is not little. Her voice type just carries softly. You don't really know the difference between the effect of the impact of the Note versus how loud it is. Also, sometimes high voices don't carry as loud, but they require more power or energy to hit.
the person who said that Miss Ross was horrible evidently she wasn't too horrible because you were watching one thing I can say about Diana Ross is that whatever negative you bring to her believe me she'll say I love you and turn it into a positive the thing about Diana Ross she is an Entertainer not just a beautiful singer but an Entertainer and a lot of those celebrities don't have that but she does she controls and audience like nobody I've ever seen so that person who said she was horrible just keep on hating because you will never increase stop her from being the great Entertainer that she is starting now at 73 years old she is still selling out venues all around the world so haters just keep on hating because like she always said I'm not going anywhere
I respect the fact everyone having a right to their opinions, but I notice here on social media lots of people intentionally find fault in things because they aren't happy with themselves, when you take time to say hurtful or mean spirited things about someone it actually says a lot about you, Ms Ross is magical and I don't feel this need to compare her contribution to the industry of enertainment with anyone, I also notice it's men who like to critique women and in my personal opinion it's because you want to be a woman but you're too unattractive to pass so you attack that which you really wish you could be.
@@anubisjohnson4568 Are you one of her 2 bitter daughters? Chudney is too classy to be so snippy ..but the other one who thinks she's an eye popping funny girl and the snarly hotel lounge singer with the gummy smile. You any one of those 2 evil step sisters incognito?
Her voice is as fine as wine.
Mrs.Ross has more class than any woman I've ever seen. There is no other female singer that can top what she has brought to the music world.
well said
So true!
That last note, beyond amazing!!!!!!

GOD BLESS "YOU" DIANA! 🌹THANK YOU FOR A LIFETIME OF BEAUTY, ELEGANCE ,💜 FROM MY SOUL TO YOURS!
Diana Ross proves yet again that she has the vocal chops to sing just as good if not better than all the rest. Bravo DIVA ROSS! Always superb.

She’s got a soft little voice 😍
Quiet, gentle, peaceful, tender, protective, warm like coals in the fireplace on a winter's day.

HOWWWW did she make it down those stairs with ALL that material?
Because she is a D.I.V.A
@alamoe62 To say simply terrible is just you being drunk from drinking Hater-ade.
Well shes a lovely woman, I didn't care for that performance but what do I know. I don't even sing in the shower lol
this was weird
A little too pitchy.
Your Mama!
