@@antonliir8189 no, she’s supposed to sound like Deena Jones, her character. Deena Jones is loosely based off of Diana Ross, not a carbon copy of Diana Ross.

A similar thing happened with a UK Girl Group called Girlthing who couldn't even get out of the gate. They were the latest discovery by Simon Cowell who turned down The Spice Girls. They did a Song called Pure & Simple but it wasn't released but it was a Hit For The UK Popstars Group Hear'Say (2001) while the other four moved on, one member Lyndsey hoped to make a comeback on a show called the big reunion. It didn't happen.
@@josem8753 I think because bey lost weight for this role and solange and her look alike except usually beyonce is a little more curvier usually while solange is usually more slim.
Nothing against beyonce and I know that was what they were going towards, but I like how Hudson sang this like she took her heart out and set it on the table
That was the point of this part of the movie. Curtis stole Effie's song and made it more dancable. He took out all of the soul because he didn't want her to have a comeback and he knew her version was good. But that was acting. It wasn't Beyonce or Jennifer Hudson. It was Deena Jones and Effie White.
minnysis3 that was a great interpretation and summary! the comment saying that Beyoncés character had less soul in the performance perfectly exemplifies, that they were successful in sending the message they wanted to with this scene.
Earlier when we heard the two versions of 'Cadillac Car', it was no contest at all which one was better because it was clearly the original and the remake had next to nothing to it except decent harmonies. When it comes to 'One Night Only', it's different because while the original is clearly fantastic, this remake is at least close to its awesomeness.
i'm probably late to the dream girls analytical discussions, but i just noticed the story the changed lyrics tell. in effie/C.C.'s version, it's "...you really don't have the time...you've got one night only..." but deena/curtis's version goes ..."I really don't have the time... I've got one night only..." which is SUCH a perfect change. effie and c.c. (in the song pov) are resigned to being taken advantage of or at least left behind when they're no longer convenient. curtis's disco version is different because curtis is not a man women leave--he's always the one leaving. the tone is also way too cheeky and upbeat to be a song about being jilted in love. so the change works really well for deena's performance. anyway, i love dream girls
You want all my love and my devotion You want my love and soul right on the line I've had no doubt, that I could love you, forever The only trouble is, you really don't have the time You've got one night only, one night only That's all I have to spare One night only, Lets not pretend to care One night only, one night only Come on, big baby, come on One night only We only have till dawn In the morning this feeling will be gone It has no chance going on Something so right has got no chance to live So lets forget about chances, it's one night I will give One night only, one night only You'll be the only one One night only Then you'll have to run One night only, one night only There's nothing more to say One night only, words get in the way One night only, one night only, one night only
It's kind of depressing;as far as Effie knew,her former friends just stole her song without remorse(actually,by Deena's reaction at seeing Effie's disco of the song,Curtis didn't told them that ''One Night Only'' was played first by Effie).
Oh here's another eerie fact. Listen has been one of the most popular Audition Songs in Europe. A Young Lady named clarissa sang it on Holland's Got Talent but she didn't know it was from Dreamgirls. Around 2008 a Young Lady from the UK sang "Listen" on The X Factor UK whose name is Alexandra Burke. Her Mother wasin Soul To Soul (Back To Life). The Two Ladies who heard her sing were Cheryl Ann Tweedy and Kimberly Walsh of Girls Aloud who were blown away and Alexandra would later win. Fatima Robinson who did the Choreography would later work with Cheryl when she did her First Solo Concert.
Yeah but it's been happening since the 1950's. In the late 1990's there was an up an coming UK Girlband called Girlthing (The Proteges Of Simon Cowell), who were touted to be the next big thing after The Spice Girls. It didn't happen and their Song "Pure & Simple" went to another Group called Hear'Say. They were to put in mildly crushed and they never made it.
@@nope2571 The UK have covered alot of songs by R & B Singers. For example, Take that covered The Tavares "It Only Takes a Minute Girl" then A Pop Star named Kavanaugh aka "Kav" covered Shalamar's A Night To Remember, and then a Group called CLEA that stood for Chloe Lynsey, Emma and Aimee who weren't chosen to be in Girls Aloud did their version of We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off. Steps covered "Everybody Dance" by Chic and Kimberley Walsh of Girls Aloud "covered" it as well. Steps also covered Chain Reaction By Diana Ross. Also in The UK they keep the Music of Motown, Philly Soul, Jackie Wilson and Chess Records alive on TV Shows like Soaps and Documentaries.
When I was young I always wondered why bey never performed like I saw her on awards shows and UA-cam on this . Then I learned she toned down her voice. You can actually tell , and that kind of backfired because for a minute alot of ppl doubted her abilities in this Era after dreamgirls. I think that's why she never brings this movie up . Anyways great song
Poor Effie. It was like The Cadillac Car all over again except it hit too close to home. Here's another fun fact, The Soap Opera Guiding Light had Four Dreamgirl Alumni. The Original Effie Jennifer Holliday, Karla Mosley (who would later play Maya on The Bold & The Beautiful) and Sharon Leal who played Dahlia Crede as well as Yvonna Kopacz-Wright (who played Dr. Mel Boudreau). I wonder if Cherelle felt like that when Robert Palmer's Version of I Didn't Mean To Turn You On was a bigger hit. The Nightclub looked like the Gay Studio 54. I loved The drag Queens. They were Ferocious.
Not many get that connection with Cadillac Car...white artist making it more acceptable...then getting black artists to make it more acceptable and less soulful...but still black. But still lacking the true soul of Effie's version.
@@ramelmilton4496 That was the whole point. The Disco Version of "One Night Only" was easier to get on Radio because Disco was still hot. In The UK alot of Boyband/Girlband Icons Cover alot of R & B Songs. The Sugababes covered Adina Howard's Freak Like Me, Another Level covered Silk's "Freak Me", and nobody knew Silk did the Original. Then other Singers from England have covered Thelma Houston, The Stylistics, and Shalamar amongst others.
I know they did effie dirty but this is version is so fucking good.
I’m saying! Lol
Its actually my favorite because with Jennifer's, I get emotional. This one I can just bop to it

You can tell Beyonce held back her vocals for the Deena character. She did fantastic tbh

If social media was ran at that time soo much shade would be on them for reamaking her song

They took it straight from the Lose My Breathe live performances.
I'm pretty sure I've seen beyonce do that dip and some other moves in her concerts before.

Yep
I’m still mad at how they did Effie.

Beyonce is beyond beautiful and I love to watch the glittering sexy trio boogie down on this one. I only wish this scene were longer.
Sam Jennings there is a full version of them performing this song
Funny how changing one word from "you" to "I (have 1 night only)" can change the whole meaning of the song
Although they (mainly curtis) did her dirty, this ate Effie's version all the way UP!
Of course, it’s disco, nothing beats a great disco track.

littttt I tell you!

I love the Dreamgirls movie because it’s songs like this that drive the plot but are also super fun!
You can tell Beyoncé held back her
Vocals for the deena character she did
Fantastic
You copied this exact comment from Joya Johnson lmao She posted it 6 months ago. Fraud.
I love this version
Effie’s version was the best but we all know this made us love the song more! They really ATE
That version was NOT the best sorry
You can really tell Donna Summers really inspired her!
great song and beyonce is a great singer
You want all my love and my devotion
You want my love and soul right on the line
I've had no doubt, that I could love you, forever
The only trouble is, you really don't have the time
You've got one night only, one night only
That's all I have to spare
One night only,
Lets not pretend to care
One night only, one night only
Come on, big baby, come on
One night only
We only have till dawn
In the morning this feeling will be gone
It has no chance going on
Something so right has got no chance to live
So lets forget about chances, it's one night I will give
One night only, one night only
You'll be the only one
One night only
Then you'll have to run
One night only, one night only
There's nothing more to say
One night only, words get in the way
One night only, one night only, one night only
Love , love the costumes in this movie
I thought that was common knowledge? Deena = Diana Ross, Effie = Florence Ballard and Lorell = Mary Wilson.
It weird because Mary Wilson was a lot prettier than Diana Ross but I get what ur saying

i can't even tell you how many times i hit the replay button
this would have been about 1978 at the height of the popularity of Studio 54.
I wonder how they got the backup dancers to look like they are from 2000 era while the movie is set in 1970's!!!
I got 70's from this but I definitely see why you say the 2000 era!
I just witnessed this as I’m watching this video
yeah, some of the hair styles were off.
fashion is always on a cycle. the 2000 actually had quite a bit of a 70s influence so that’s probably all it is
I love this so much and deena looks so
Amazing here I love this aesthetic and
Styler for Beyoncé 🥰
I wish Florence was still alive to see this cuz dreamgirls was really good movie would like how she was portrayed
Love this song
Just magnificent.
I cant believe this came out 14 years ago. Boy time is going fast.
dreamgirls is loosely based on the supremes.....
I really love this number.
Effie looked pissed and rightly so but she got Curtis back in the end which is the best scene in the movie.
Beyoncé looks like Donna Summer here
Ramaun Lewis lol that’s who character is based on Deana Donna
Serena H no it’s based off of Diana ross
That’s exactly what I was thinking. She looks a lot like Donna Summer in this scene
Beyoncé looks like Bonn’s summer here
Love this song ❤️ Beyoncé
Love dream girls. Love love this scene
