From Wikipedia: Alfie is a 1966 British comedy-drama film directed by Lewis Gilbert and starring Michael Caine. The Paramount Pictures release was adapted from the 1963 play of the same name by Bill Naughton. Following its premiere at the Plaza Theatre in the West End of London on 24 March 1966, the film became a box office success, enjoying critical acclaim, and influencing British cinema. The title song, "Alfie", written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, was sung by Cher over the film's closing credits in the US release reaching #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[8] It became a hit for British singer Cilla Black (Millicent Martin sang Alfie on its British release) and for Madeline Eastman and DIONNE WARWICK
Cynthia could not do The Color Purple because she currently is the lead in another upcoming movie musical. It's a little show called Wicked. Maybe you have head of it. Just fyi.😉
Goodness gracious! I just threw both hands up in the air like a touchdown got scored...got me reaching for the heavens spontaneously. Feeling light headed with joy. Cynthia Erivo!!!
Cynthia deserves her flowers, she be singing with conviction! Would be a lowkey gem if you could react to NeYo - What Would I Do If I Could Feel (The Wiz Live) Much Love
I just came across this yesterday and found myself crying just from the gorgeousness of her voice. I dont cry like that, y'all. So that's saying something.
Alfie was a movie back in the ‘70’s starring English actor Michael Caine. The song was a huge hit for Dionne. I thought Cynthia Erivo killed the song. She was Magnificent. She killed it.
I had to stop watching this woman! I felt like her voice was traveling through my tv, hitting my throat, and suddenly I could sing 😂 that’s how good she is! She sings like it’s nothing. Got me thinking I can do it too lol. Sidenote: I haven’t watched The Color Purple yet. It’s one of my favorite books, movies, and musicals. But when I saw “someone” in the trailer I said HELL NO! Starts with a C. That’s all ima say 😂 there are a few other ppl I’ve found out are in it and now I’m even more scared to see it
Cynthia Erivo sang this song!! What a beautiful tribute to the legendary Dionne Warwick!! Cynthia was stunning and totally killed this song! Her delivery, range and control is perfect! I'm in tears!!
Have you heard Cynthia and Jennifer Hudson singing "Purple Rain" after Prince passed? It was insane. They did it while they were doing "The Color Purple."
Noooooo keeppppp her! She will get better over time I think too. That “is she talking to me? Am I alfie” from the initial question of “who is alfie” I rewinded and hollered soooo bad! Keep her! ❤😂
you should watch Cynthia on the Jimi Fallon show WHISTLING I'll be home for christmas it blow your mind. you will love it. Kim Cruse singing Summertime is another great performance
.. much to, I am sure, your disappointment, "alfie" was a white man. That's right... The film was about a white man. The song alfie was written by a white man. A white man who wrote several of dionne warwick's number one songs but was never recognized by the kennedy center. One of the most prolific song writers of all time. In fact, Burt Bacharach literally l launched the career of dionne warwick. He made her who she was and even she has said that on several occasions. But somehow the Kennedy Center Never found a way to invite him for an honor. Bear mind that as far back as two thousand and eight people were calling for him to be acknowledged. He died in 2023. But somehow they thought it was appropriate to offer someone like queen latifah, a woman who is half his age and hasn't nearly finished her career. Ridiculous. And I am a Dana Owens fan.
Is this reaction video re-edited or something? Or am I tripping? Cuz I watched it when Faith first posted it and watching it again now, it’s cutting in places that it wasn’t cutting before. 🤔
Cynthia Erivo actually played Celie in The Color Purple on Broadway. You guys should react to the clips that are UA-cam. Especially her “I’m Here” and the cast of The Color Purple singing “I won’t complain “
Girl... I watched Cynthia last night at 5 am. I know my neighbor thought someone was killing me the way i was screaming. I would have been put OUT the Kennedy Center.
My hope is that some of the hate between Black Americans and Africans new to America will end. Because here we have an African queen giving all she has to a Black Queen. Why can’t we just get along? Cus if Black gon survive, we’re the only shareholders!
The reason she didn’t do the Color Purple is because she was/is filming the Wicked movie. Plus she said the role was heavy for her so she wasn’t ready to do it again.
ok 2 more things. 1, color purple. we were supposed to see it opening day, but my mom’s been doing treatments sooooo, that put her completely out, and that’s understandable. I get it, but imma see this movie, believe that! Fantasia my gurl ok, and from what I’m hearing, her and Danielle Brooks ain’t nothing to play with! aside from your home state, Carolina ain’t nothing to play with! NC and SC got some sangers baby! Tasia from NC, and Danielle right up a state. speaking of your home state, y’all gotta react to the clark sisters at the honors. they did all that.
She did a beautiful rendition. You got to watch Ms. Warrick live rendition on world of jazz on here cause it’s just as emotionally pulling, if you haven’t heard it.
Alfie is a movie,about a who can commit and deals with various women,but he falls for one but loses out in the end, Alfie sung by Dionne Warrick is the Theme song
ok, honestly, I’m watching as I go along. so Mr. wasn’t that Corey Hawkins? if so, you should check his work out from the movie adaptation of the musical in the heights. he plays Benny and he ate down. him and anthony ramos. baby they killed! that’s just me.
Honestly and absolutely no shade all T…I think Cynthia was supposed to be cast as Celie. I think Fantasia deserves the role and i think she did amazing in the role. I enjoyed her on the broadway version as well. I hope she gets every award she will be nominated for, but it’s the truth. They were casting The Color Purple around the same time Cynthia got the news to play Elphaba in Wicked. She couldn’t do both. As far as some of the roles i could have seen…You know what nvm 😂
She really did and awesome job with that Song 🎵 But for me I just love Dionnie Version better, But the way she Sing 🎤 it was Great 👍🏾, Shout Out to Hal David, And Burt for such a beautiful song 🎶
listen, cohost or not, whenever she around, keep her in the picture, and if she also got a channel, direct me to it sis! imma still need y’all both to get on this train about my gurlz Jai’len Josey and the shindellas. they are everything. oh, and please, please run up some reactions to my friend/my gurl Castella. she can sang for days, and, baby, I been knowing her my life, but her just charting. I hopped on soon as I saw her first doing things. I’m like, what?
SHE JUST REPOSTED US ON HER INSTAGRAM GUYS 🥰😭
Yes she did and well deserved! It’s a great reaction and she does support anyone who supports her! ❤
Oh wow!! Congratsss

FROM THE MOVIE "ALFIE" played by Michael Caine.
That woman can sang! Ain't nothing else to be said.
Idk if you saw the video of Cynthia on Jim Fallon whistling a Christmas song. That woman is not human! Lol! She definitely deserves her flowers!
Cus here my loud ass screaming SANG CYNTHIA SANG!!!!!!!
Alfie was a movie back in the ‘70’s starring English actor Michael Caine. The song was a huge hit for Dionne. I thought Cynthia Erivo killed the song. She was Magnificent. She killed it.
Yeah , Whitney the voice😢❤🎉 sang it ....and she followed her kind of singing... beautiful ❤❤❤
I love her voice too !!!!
If you like this I think you'd love Jennifer Hudson's 2014 Kennedy Center Honor tribute to Al Green singing his song Simply Beautiful
I had to stop watching this woman! I felt like her voice was traveling through my tv, hitting my throat, and suddenly I could sing 😂 that’s how good she is! She sings like it’s nothing. Got me thinking I can do it too lol.

Who Alfie? Had me dying😂
Sadly, I don't think she could have done The Color Purple as she would have likely been in the UK working on the Wicked adaptation.
Cynthia Erivo sang this song!! What a beautiful tribute to the legendary Dionne Warwick!! Cynthia was stunning and totally killed this song! Her delivery, range and control is perfect! I'm in tears!!
Have you heard Cynthia and Jennifer Hudson singing "Purple Rain" after Prince passed? It was insane. They did it while they were doing "The Color Purple."
I absolutely love Cynthia Erivo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Same 😭
Noooooo keeppppp her! She will get better over time I think too. That “is she talking to me? Am I alfie” from the initial question of “who is alfie” I rewinded and hollered soooo bad! Keep her! ❤😂
I absolutely LOVE your reaction to "Alfie"❤❤❤
Ms. Cynthia definitely brought a beautiful tribute to Mrs. Dionne Warwick. I'm teary eyed right now.
No cause let me tell you my shoes would be OFF and on the stage from the back of the theatre in a heartbeat 😂😂 Cynthia Erivo is that GIRL
I’m don’t know what happened but it cut out the entire middle
Of the song reaction.
you should watch Cynthia on the Jimi Fallon show WHISTLING I'll be home for christmas it blow your mind. you will love it. Kim Cruse singing Summertime is another great performance
I hope Cynthia reminds Dionne of Whitney♥️♥️♥️#HerBaby
Alfie was a character in a movie by the same name.. He was a man about town who just couldn't commit to one woman.
This is one of my favorite songs (from the film "Alfie") - gorgeous melody and beautiful lyrics. Check out Stevie Wonder's harmonica version.
I gotta watch it now 💯
Stevie’s harmonica work is phenomenal on Alfie. He is a big Dionne fan & they are friends.
She’s incredible

Please do Kelly and teddy swims on her show please !!
Faith you need to react to Kelontae Gavin Heaven is waiting for me next!
YESSS im so glad you guys reacted to this ❤️❤️ she truly is amazing 🙌🏽
Is this reaction video re-edited or something? Or am I tripping? Cuz I watched it when Faith first posted it and watching it again now, it’s cutting in places that it wasn’t cutting before. 🤔
It’s re-edited and now the reaction is missing smhh
Cynthia Erivo actually played Celie in The Color Purple on Broadway. You guys should react to the clips that are UA-cam. Especially her “I’m Here” and the cast of The Color Purple singing “I won’t complain “
It’s from the title track alfie. Written by Burt Bacharach. The movie Alfie in the 1960’s.
I screamed when you talked about future baby mo 😂😂
Girl... I watched Cynthia last night at 5 am. I know my neighbor thought someone was killing me the way i was screaming. I would have been put OUT the Kennedy Center.
They would've kicked me out right on with yall......and I gladly would've gone screaming SING CYNTHIA!!!!
Alfie is a movie. It was remade with Nia Long in it. GOD BLESS.🙏🏽
Cynthia was perhaps too busy being green to be purple. Her Honors performance was stunning.
A movie. Starring Michael Caine.
Cynthia couldn't commit to the Color Purple because she has been working on Wicked for a minute. Just FYI
My hope is that some of the hate between Black Americans and Africans new to America will end. Because here we have an African queen giving all she has to a Black Queen. Why can’t we just get along? Cus if Black gon survive, we’re the only shareholders!
The reason she didn’t do the Color Purple is because she was/is filming the Wicked movie. Plus she said the role was heavy for her so she wasn’t ready to do it again.
LOOOL CUZI AM COMING TO THE BACK OF THE STAGE!!!!!!!!!!!! IKTR GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok 2 more things. 1, color purple. we were supposed to see it opening day, but my mom’s been doing treatments sooooo, that put her completely out, and that’s understandable.

Its a really old movie from the mid-60s with Michael Caine.
Yall disrespecting and talking through the whole thing. Shame.
Absolutely correct, that’s what she should be in the color purple to make people cry with soul how she felt.
Halle Bailey could have been replaced by Cynthia Erivo
This a woman is amazing!!❤
If noone told you, yes it was from the movie "ALFIE"
Mariah Carey - make it happen madison square garden 1995!!
Faith said “you not bout 2 sing like that and walk off saying sun thank you Dionne”🤣🤣🤣🤣
You guys are funny!!!! It was a good
Missed almost all of the performance ;(
Alfie is a British movie with Michael Caine as Alfie.
She did a beautiful rendition. You got to watch Ms. Warrick live rendition on world of jazz on here cause it’s just as emotionally pulling, if you haven’t heard it.
Why did you cut out the good parts?? "Am I Alfie" hit home with me too!
Please react to some Kyla Jade ☺️ luv the vids ❤️
Alfie was an ols school player in the movie
There is something wrong with the video.
Best reaction EVER 😭😭😭😭
Why did you cut out the best part?! 🤣😳
Even her dress was a tribute
Alfie is a movie,about a who can commit and deals with various women,but he falls for one but loses out in the end, Alfie sung by Dionne Warrick is the Theme song
I believe the theme was sung by Celia Black or Cher. The film director didn’t want Dionne to sing the song, but Warwick’s is the best version.
"YA THROAT HURT" LMAOOOOOO
Dont do CC like that
She blew it up!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🥰
Ya’ll..,🤦🏾♂️😂🤣😂🤣🤦🏾♂️
But for real this was THE Performance!!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
ok, honestly, I’m watching as I go along. so Mr. wasn’t that Corey Hawkins? if so, you should check his work out from the movie adaptation of the musical in the heights. he plays Benny and he ate down. him and anthony ramos. baby they killed! that’s just me.

You need to react to when Cynthia sings Nothing compares to you! One of her best performances 😁
She really did and awesome job with that Song 🎵 But for me I just love Dionnie Version better, But the way she Sing 🎤 it was Great 👍🏾, Shout Out to Hal David, And Burt for such a beautiful song 🎶
Why the HELL was music from BARBIE in the COLOR PURPLE? WHAT THE F****?AS FAR AS THIS PERFORMANCE I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOUR REACTION?

When I tell y'all I would've been ROLLING AROUND ON THAT STAGE LIKE I HAD THE HOLY GHOST 😂
i know who yall talking about and i was thinking about cynthia would have been the person for a few parts.
My first time seeing and hearing Cynthia Erivo was as in Bad Times at the El Royale. I have been shook and hooked ever since.
That dress! She is such a star! Watch her whole concert at Royal Albert Hall ua-cam.com/video/m9Hgi90LTv8/v-deo.html
Hilarious you had me rolling @6:53 🤣😂😂😂😂😂
React gabriel henrique "oh holly night" perfomance in romania , he killed !!
Is it Danielle, cause never played in a big movie she said herself
You should do Kelly Clarkson other song "Me" it's almost like a gospel song. I think you would really like it.
Alfie was a movie from the 60s & song of the same name sung by Dionne Warwick was a huge hit.
So good
It is from a movie, Alfie, from the 60's...
This song was also sung by the late Cilla Black in the 60s.
Watch the movie with Jude Law and Nia long.
I could listen to this 200 go zillion times❤❤❤
listen, cohost or not, whenever she around, keep her in the picture, and if she also got a channel, direct me to it sis! imma still need y’all both to get on this train about my gurlz Jai’len Josey and the shindellas. they are everything. oh, and please, please run up some reactions to my friend/my gurl Castella. she can sang for days, and, baby, I been knowing her my life, but her just charting.
