Cute live performance, but this song doesn't have that sassy, savage piercing vibe to it without Maxine… and even Dawn, who even tho doesn't appear on the music video is on the track and performed the song with them a few times. Sadly Terry cannot do those notes at the end anymore, I think Dawn still could.
Cindy's range is still pristine but it's like both she and Rhona are holding back their power and shine to not make Terry feel insecure (belting like she has for 30 years is going to take a toll no matter what)
@@bydivadream come on! I LOVE Cindy, but her voice is not pristine anymore, neither is Terry, neither is Maxine. Their voices have aged and naturally they don't and can't hit notes they could before.
@@rizza313twenty don't you think though that there is a way to voice your preference (which you are 100% entitled to!) without putting Rhona down? Dawn + Max chose to leave multiple times... would you prefer EV to be a duo of Cindy and Terry?
@@bydivadream some Maths for you. Rhona has been there off and on since 2004, total of about 15/16 years now, Maxine was there for 12 years and then about 9 years....which is 21 years total, but say 20 years given she wasn't there fully in 2003 or 2004 just off and on at that time. Dawn 8 years, a year, 4 years, but take a year off of that as 2 of those years weren't full years, and that's 12 years. So how has Rhona been there triple the length of Dawn and Maxine combined when she hasn't even been there longer than Maxine? And all these years and no hits, not 1 hit, nothing. So whats your point exactly? She been there all this time and made no impact whatsoever, and you fighting so hard for a non entity member who let's face it, Terry and Cindy could replace tomorrow and it wouldn't effect them being booked in the slightest
I feel ya. Also, what is Maxine and Dawn doing now. Maxine was supposed to drop an album and we still don’t have it. Dawn was doing interviews, but no music. The vocals in the group now are weak and can hardly hear that strong harmonies when they were a foursome.
Dawn is working on her book first and then she’s gonna be dropping an album. It would be nice if all 5 members could on stage together. That would be Epic!
@@keyz951 Cindy and Terry were down to reunite as long as Rhona is included, but Dawn wanted it to be just the 4 (C+T are legal owners and to expect them to kick Rhona out who has been a member for decades is unrealistic)
@@bydivadreamYet they were happy to do that multiple times before right? And you do know the Sylvia Rhone performance was meant to be just the original 4? Rhona was only there cos Dawn said no and didn't change her mind until rehearsals. Maybe get some facts. Rhona been there decades (it's been about 16 years off and on) and still people don't even know she's there. Says a lot about the impact she's had.
They've been touring and releasing content as this line up since 2013 and released an album with this line up back in 2003-2004. They could pass if they at least got Maxine back to round out the harmonies more with her bottom notes and powerhouse lead vocals but the group always lacks without Dawn and her sass, flair, and edge she brings to the group when she's present.. Unfortunately, I think this is probably the definite line up of En Vogue as Maxine and Dawn are focused on their own endeavors and have no desire to return. 😢
Agreed. Rhona can sing for days but I don't look at her as being part of the group. I'm sorry, not being mean, but to me, EV is all 4 or the remaining 3. It's why I could not get into Soulflower or Electric Cafe.
You guys sound like a broken record at this point. Rhona has been a member of this group for 20 years. It's time to let it go and stop complaining that things aren't like the glory days. The girls are 60+ now. Even if Dawn and Max were still there it would sound different. You can't expect for them to be able to do all they could do in their 20s and 30s.
You got that great footage the first time. Lucky you, get to see them LIVE again.

This just isn't giving like I remember. I just need the original Ladies.
I have never accepted Rhona. She is not a fit aesthetically or sonically. Nothing about her gives En Vogue. Talented girl just not her bag.
@@rizza313twenty Rhona has been part of EV triple the length of Dawn and Max combined.
@@bydivadream Yet and still the fans prefer Dawn and Maxine. Rhona just doesn't have the I or the T honey!

En Vogue are 4. If the originals ever reunited they won't need the 5th wheel to sing backgrounds for them, they would have that covered.

No offense but I just cannot get into En Vogue no more with this new lineup I can't stand it they don't sound the same and it's over
