Aesthetically, the staging and production was gorgeous. The bronze, copper and gold color schemes with the chignon hair was beyond classy. Not one explosion or pyrotechnic, just the voice and charisma of a mega-star! You go girl, you just go!
The older she got the better her voice got. I saw her twice a few weeks ago at the royal Albert hall and my god she’s still got it. Doesn’t need to keep performing but she does it out of pure love for it ❤️
Because she had the kind of voice that could even make "Mary Had A Little Lamb" sound like the greatest piece of music ever, and she ooozed beauty and charisma
+Martha Marvelette , She didn't need props. Notice how she is just standing there singing and yet you can't take your eyes off her. Not sure that kind of thing can be taught. You either have it or you don't.
Fakhrul Najmi And they were jealous. No one wore beautiful gowns like her or walked and sang as gracefully and worked the stage like her. She didn't need props. She was that good. A lot of people think she only became successful because she stepped on others to get to the top. Pfffft. What successful person hasn't? Diana just grabbed opportunity when presented to her, wasn't afraid to take the chance and persevere
Diana Ross is the ultimate performer's performer. This performance is so POWERFUL! I mean watch the musicians play, and see the look on their faces when Diana hits that first note, they know that they're witnessing greatness right there in front of them. She is the entertainment par excellence, period!
I saw Diana in concert back in August/2013. Trust me, she has NOT lost her touch! Even at her age, she can still perform. That's precisely why she's my alltime favorite female singer
If anyone has the good fortune to have someone who says those words to them, hang on to them. She made a beautiful song and put her beautiful soul into it.
This is what one hit record can do for a recording/ singing star. 8 Years later, and she sings it at some of the most respected arenas in the world, helping her make millions
There is something so beautiful in Diana's soul that goes beyond all the petty human judgments of her mistakes, temperament and limitations. This woman was born to perform and to communicate, which is a loving gift she has given generously for decades now. She has shown by example the virtues of hard work, vital energy, perseverance, setting goals & creating dreams ~ beautiful values & personal transformation. Let's honor Diana Ross and hold her up to the Light with LOVE ***
You know the big vocals on this track were not Diana Ross'... Diana has a pretty lilting voice, suited for songs like "Touch Me In The Morning", and "My Mistake" her duet with Marvin Gaye..
@@ShaleelGriffith "The Andantes", they were like the "Funk Brothers" were as the "go to" musicians for motown. "The Andantes", were the "all girl group" vocalists for Ashford & Simpson's songs and "Martha Reeves & The Vandellas", and many others. My friend pointed it out to me long ago. And I saw it and heard it right away. Diana Ross is pretty much just the spoken word part, and some background harmonies..
What a lovely speaking singing and speaking voice no wonder everyone loves her! Not too mention her flawless dress style...just top notch from head to toe,...
I admire Diana Ross as well as respect her foundation for women of all colors in music but never was I a die hard fan. However, after watching this performance of her rendition of this song I must say it left chills over my body. The arrangement, the background vocals along with her vocals was nothing more than a masterpiece/classic record. Miss Ross is truly talented and it sucks that my generation missed out of real music. Thank God for UA-cam!!
@pnyc1969 In "Secrets of a Sparrow", Diana mentioned that she wanted to create a touring costume retrospective. She does have ALL of her costumes from the last 40 years. Tracee stated that the entire top floor of their Connecticut mansion was/is storage space for her costumes, shoes, jewelry, wigs, etc.:)
Diana is a true gem, and her performances are felt from her generation all the way to mine because she was not fake in her interpretation, she was real with it and the audience know iif that's what make a true legend which she is.
Then as now, Diana rules! Truly divine. "Dream Girls" insinuates she's a weak singer, but look at the force of her voice matching that of the orchestra. Her voice is both champagne sweet and vodka knockout. Plus she has stage presence and charisma. Even before Star Wars, she has the FORCE!
Spellbounding Performance. Diana was relly Feeling that one and I would think that everyone who was there or who watchs this clip can Feel it too."An AMAZING Vibe." Evertything was "On The One Perfection",.....The Boss Miss Ross, What A LADY!!!!! Such An Aura.
SPIRITUAL BEYOND MAGNIFICENT, ENCHANTING,GRACEFUL, ELEGANT,PURE SONGSTRESS POWERFUL PERFECT VOCALS AS USUAL BUT THIS LIVE PERFORMANCE IS ONLY ONE OF TJE REASONS I SAY ("REALLY REALLY,REALLY!!!!!

DIANA HAS EVERY OTHER AWARD IN MUSIC AND HUMANITARIAN HONORIES GOLDEN GLOBE AMERICAN MUSIC ,ECT BUT NO GRAMMY !!!NO OTHER VOICE COMPARES TO MISS ROSS SONGBIRD ENCHANTING GRACEFUL ELEGANT PURE SPIRITUAL POWERFUL SELF MAY OUR HEAVENLY FATHER ABOVE BLESS KEEP PROSPER HEAL AND FILL U AND ALL YOUR'S TODAY AND ALWAYS IN JESUS BLESSED NAME AMEN AND AMEN LOVE YA MISS ROSS 🌈🥰💗💕💕💋💋💋🇺🇸🌹🎵☝️👍
Here, Diana is going 'au natural' with the makeup: no heavy fake lashes, thick eyeliner, over extended arched brows, just a very clean natural and pristine look! She looks so much younger than she did in the Supremes' heyday!
There will never be another Diana Ross! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow, she should’ve got a standing ovation for that. Yes, ma’am.
1978 america....
Background singers ATE and didn't leave any crumbs.
😅😅😅😅
Perfect I love you darling 💙❤️
Aesthetically, the staging and production was gorgeous. The bronze, copper and gold color schemes with the chignon hair was beyond classy. Not one explosion or pyrotechnic, just the voice and charisma of a mega-star! You go girl, you just go!
Berry Gordy knew from the beginning that Dianna Ross was destined to be a super star. Fantastick performance!!
I meant Diana-- one n not two lol.
Her dress, make up, stage presence, WOW! She looks stunning, elegant, sexy.
THAT'S PERFECTION
Ladies And Gentlemen: The Entertainer Of The Century: Diana Ross; The Boss; Don't need a cure for this!! OUTSTANDING !!! 💃💃💃
The older she got the better her voice got. I saw her twice a few weeks ago at the royal Albert hall and my god she’s still got it. Doesn’t need to keep performing but she does it out of pure love for it ❤️
No pop singer today can compare to her. She set the standard!
Say that again!
Thank God for that
and never will..she`s the queen
That's because it wasn't easy to be her. She could convincingly sing different styles of music
Because she had the kind of voice that could even make "Mary Had A Little Lamb" sound like the greatest piece of music ever, and she ooozed beauty and charisma
In the sixties me 4th 5 th I catch her or any Motown group and that music stayed in your head. Much love and respect to their music❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No one will ever match her for style, grace & stage presence, she's beyond legendary.
+Martha Marvelette , She didn't need props. Notice how she is just standing there singing and yet you can't take your eyes off her. Not sure that kind of thing can be taught. You either have it or you don't.
She's Magic!
Miss TWTR4EVER, you & DetroitLives313 need to stick with what you know best, blowing loads up each others Ass.
Hush Up "Detroit" I'm enjoying watching a SUPERSTAR, Go back to your Mary Wilson Videos, maybe you can get the View Count up to 5
For $7.50, I can have a Seat Next to you, at some Mary Wilson Concert!!!
Be a Doll & get me a Beer & Ear Plugs
The best female singer ever
Awesome as Usual
She is spectacular!
You’ll always have me 💙❤️
After watching this clip, I think to myself, "How could anyone not like her?" This woman is amazing.
Because they have bad taste, and thought she was stuck up. She's not. She has class and dignity. There's a difference
BroccoliBeefed Yeah, I agree with you.
Fakhrul Najmi

I just asked myself the same thing after seeing 92 dislikes. She is Awsome
Beautiful words 💙❤️
Diana Ross will ALWAYS be at her best when she sings in her full voice and is backed by a full orchestra and gospel vocals.
Diana Ross is the ultimate performer's performer. This performance is so POWERFUL! I mean watch the musicians play, and see the look on their faces when Diana hits that first note, they know that they're witnessing greatness right there in front of them. She is the entertainment par excellence, period!
Gene Ebeling , Because a lot of people didn't realize what a powerful singer she could be. You can hear it live, not on her records
BroccoliQueefed All great singers are like this.
What she did? That
Thank You! 🥰💙❤💙🌟✝️🌟
This was absolutely phenomenal🔥🔥🔥🎵! Diana Ross - Ain't no mountain high enough💯👑 rest in peace Dick Clark 💜🕊
WOW THERE IS NOONE ELSE LIKE HER.........GODDESS
Even her speaking monologue was so melodic it was like she was singing
Nothing can keep me from Loving Diana Ross.
What a beautiful magic stunning creature
I saw Diana in concert back in August/2013. Trust me, she has NOT lost her touch! Even at her age, she can still perform. That's precisely why she's my alltime favorite female singer
Always lifting higher and higher 🥰
If anyone has the good fortune to have someone who says those words to them, hang on to them. She made a beautiful song and put her beautiful soul into it.
there' no one like Diana Ross. She's the greatest and this song is it!
One of best and most versatile american singers
No stopping Diana
Woooo, she sung the heck out of that song. Did you see the energy explode in her!!!! Awesome Ross!
+Jonathan Westmoreland I can easily tell she did
WBEG RADIO yeah to an audience consisting of a bunch of sour face corpses 🤷🏽♀️
Bam!! Diana delivers here. Wished they had turned down the background mics tho especially towards the end.
She is really beautiful...REAL DIVA
Nothing can keep me from you
This is what one hit record can do for a recording/ singing star. 8 Years later, and she sings it at some of the most respected arenas in the world, helping her make millions
Diana sings and talks through this with so much passion.
❤❤
WAS SHE EVER MORE BEAUTIFUL????????
Fabulous.. Star.. Legend.. Iconic.. Amazing..Beautiful..Diana Ross..The Boss♥️🌹

LONG OVERDUE ! This is who we still think of when the word diva is mentioned. What a singer she was.
And Still Is Of TODAY!!! 🥰💖❤💖👍🏽🌟✝️🌟
WHAT A SINGER "SHE IS"....!!!!!
Great music at all times! #Timeless!!
Queen of Motown... Brilliant.. LEGEND
Diana’s magic and the background singers did not have to snap like that. CHILLLLLLSS all over!!
This song by Diana, is one of the greatest songs of all time.. Period.! Diana Ross and Karen Carpenter have no peers..
I could not agree with you more. Their tone and pitch was untouchable in their prime. They also sung with true passion and such clarity.
You know the big vocals on this track were not Diana Ross'... Diana has a pretty lilting voice, suited for songs like "Touch Me In The Morning", and "My Mistake" her duet with Marvin Gaye..
Ridgeback Streisand?
@@ShaleelGriffith "The Andantes", they were like the "Funk Brothers" were as the "go to" musicians for motown. "The Andantes", were the "all girl group" vocalists for Ashford & Simpson's songs and "Martha Reeves & The Vandellas", and many others. My friend pointed it out to me long ago.
And I saw it and heard it right away. Diana Ross is pretty much just the spoken word part, and some background harmonies..
Ridgeback actually she hit it from Tammi Terrell and Marvin Gaye. ☕️
Maybe her greatest live televised performance. Soul overload.
nope
wow that performance had more more emotion than I seen in others my Aries sister I love you so much
so good! love it
What a lovely speaking singing and speaking voice no wonder everyone loves her! Not too mention her flawless dress style...just top notch from head to toe,...
cleopatrabonz , She definitely had the mesmerizing factor going on. She was dripping charisma in those days
Yesss.... The BOSS!!!😍
The most amazing song by the most amazing performer. Simply the greatest motown song of them all!!!!!
Can play this song over and over a hundred times and yet can't get enough of it!
Me too 🥺
Such a beautiful classy Lady! When you have talent you don't have to show everything.
Amen
Joy Lewis
Yessss! My sentiments exactly.
Ha! Dick Clark blushing at the queen diva of pop music because of her thank you. That was too cute for words
The energy in that room had to beyond amazing look at the faces of the musicians and the background singers
QUEEN OF THE WORLD AND MY HEART!!!! ❤️
My favorite song in the universe.
Exploding Talent, Beauty and Charisma, knows no boundaries of time or fads..
What a doll💜💜 who could possibly ever not love her??? In my next lifetime I want to come back as her
love 70's era of ross //that DRESS IS EVERTHING BOB MACKIE IM SURE love when she wore her hair pulled back. shit she need to do this now
Most Elegant Stage Presence Ever!!!! Nobody Holds A Candle To Ms. Ross!!!!
amazing!! This was her best vocal period, high notes, melodic, feminine and powerful. And class and style.
I admire Diana Ross as well as respect her foundation for women of all colors in music but never was I a die hard fan. However, after watching this performance of her rendition of this song I must say it left chills over my body. The arrangement, the background vocals along with her vocals was nothing more than a masterpiece/classic record. Miss Ross is truly talented and it sucks that my generation missed out of real music. Thank God for UA-cam!!
It really was better back then. This is the real deal. Vocalizing was not all synthetic like it is today. Because today they hire dancers, not singers
SOOOOO many nights this song has lifted us ALL! Thanks Diana for the gift that will last a lifetime!
Yes indeed!!!!!!!
i love Beyonce, but she has never made me feel the way Diana makes me feel when i watch a performance like this.
GENIUS from Dianna
I've seen a number of her live acts on this song, and I think this is one of the best performances I've seen.
Especially the chorus.
RIP Mr Dick Clark you are truly a legend that transcends generations your contribution to music can not be matched .
!BEAUTIFUL!! ONE OF THE BEST SINGERS LOOOVE DIANA ROSS!!!
Diana on fire here for sure! Wow, this performance just blows you away!!!!!!
Wish that was true my lover❤️💙
Masterful performance! 😍👌🏻🙏🏻🎧🎵🎶🎵

She was at the top of her game. Simply spellbinding.

I'm not a huge Diana fan but she should've gotten a standing O for that performance !
This song is timeless! Still love it and Diana after all these yrs!
This is Diana Ross in her prime. The Great Miss Ross at the peak of her brilliant career!
Steller performance. Brilliant piece Diana 💕
Then as now, Diana rules! Truly divine. "Dream Girls" insinuates she's a weak singer, but look at the force of her voice matching that of the orchestra. Her voice is both champagne sweet and vodka knockout. Plus she has stage presence and charisma. Even before Star Wars, she has the FORCE!
"Dream Girls" is fiction. WTF!
Beautiful! Ageless! Fantastic piece of music!! Diana Ross!
The one and only that held Michael jackson s heart captive ! Ah Diana she has that je ne sais quoi , aura , what a woman!
