2024, and I'm back listening to this beautiful Queen singing one of her masterpieces with accompanying orchestra. This is how much truly the heart. Just wow. 😢😢😢❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Adams' rendition touches my soul every time I play this tune. Watch her at the bridge when she hits certain chords on the piano. She FEELS that music deep in her soul. Thank you.
Ok.... Mrs.Adams SANG THIS SONG!!! SHE ALSO CAN PLAY THE HECK OUT OF A PIANO. ALSO HER HAIR WAS SLAYED!!! Such a Pint sized POWERHOUSE!!! SHE LOOKED LOVELY SANG THE SONG AMAZINGLY!!! AND HER TEETH ARE PERFECTION. So Glad the Lord Blessed me to see her Live front row & like a Real Songstress she signed CD'S & took Pictures with her adorning fans. #IfYouHaveNotSeenOletaAdamsLiveGo
I don't know if she's underrated or just not as well known as some singers. I think she is a singer's singer... people who really know and love music, especially jazz, soul, know her worth. Just not a popstar - which is fine by me! 😊
My Lord! This is the best version of this song. Her voice is MAGNIFICENT!!! The album version is a masterpiece! I cry the ugly cry every time I heart it. I cry for me and humanity and the state of the world that we are living in now....My prayer is that everyone who hears her sing this song has a profound change within them for the betterment of society. We all must change. Everything Must Change, No One Stays The Same....Why not make the change for the better...
In 2005, our family lost 4 members in a tragic car accident. As I laid in bed crying one night and listening to music, this song came on and ministered to my broken heart. Yes, everything must change... nothing and no one is promised to us forever so we have to let people know how much we love them while they are here. Oleta and this song have a special place in my heart and I listen to it whenever I'm feeling grateful for the things and people God has blessed me with. Thank you Oleta Adams. 💓🙏
damn. I mean damn. this song is among the worlds most beautiful it is pastoral and steeped in legend and Oleta Adams defines the emotion that this song represents, to take you to a place far away and to touch your life and teach you that every thing DOES change. Miss Adams is speaking about every human being. Beyond belief.
I don't get hate, just don't understand it. Why do some people feel that way?. Every thing must change, has done so much for me, and friends who's life seemed so bad. They are still alive thanks to Miss Adams
God, or who ever we see as a greater power, allows us to understand. It does not matter if we are Christian, Jew or Moslem. My dad says it's the same God. And God says love one an other.
This video has been live fr 6 years, and I’m just watchin’ it now !!!? UA-cam, you better check yr algorithms!! Awesome... true greatness...one of the best performances I’ve EVER witnessed... ( age 64, music lover for 50+ yrs)
Real talent! Oleta has the voice of an Angel! I played this song on repeat when my sister and mother passed away. This song helped me get through my grieving process and understand that nothing is guaranteed in life. Thank you Oleta for giving us such a beautiful song💓
Damn. One of my all time favs! Her voice is thee living instrument, i am always in awe. I love her. Whenever, I listen--- her gift, it is so real, yet, I cannot still believe how someone can have such chops. And so elegant in that dress, violins screaming ! NOT in a freaking gstring like today's stars??? Damn, this live was something else! I am going to listen again!
I feel like there was this ocean of pain and grief, and everything was swept away with this song. I was carried away by this undercurrent of melancholy her rendition embodied.
Miss Oleta Adams Has A Phonemenal Voice I am Sorry I never got the chance to see her Perform. She’s Superb Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏 When need to give more recognition to those who have The Vocals to Stand for Who they really are. They are The ones with Class , Style, Grace, . There’s nothing like it I grew up with Piano in the House 🏡 and Singing in My Family . That’s the best entertainment in the world the good all days people came over if you had a piano they sat around and they start singing Different Songs the best .Happy Love ❤️ Day To All Becareful and Stay Safe . Look out for Our Elderly out There They should feel Safe . God Bless You 🙏🏼
I cried during her performance of "Everything must change" at java jazz recently and she pointed at me, said "you're tearing! Its alright." :'( That got me crying even harder lol I love her.
As recently as today I discovered this song is actually quite often covered, but Oleta's version was the FIRST I had ever heard. Even having seen Body heat, I don't recollect it. And for that...I am profoundly grateful!
I saw Oleta appear with Tears For Fears in 1990 at The Newport Centre (Wales). When she began to sing in "Woman in Chains" it brought the biggest and most sincere round of applause of the night! A wonderful, special talent . . .
🥺🥺🥺🥺😥😥😢😢💙💙💙💙 Even with this video I can feel her soul and magic in my heart, mind and soul. I thought this touched me back in the day. Absolutely timeless. Was this her only album? If so WHYYYYY!!? "And music makes me cry." FOR REAL!
October 2024. Sadly I've never gotten to see Ms. Adams perform live. We truly appreciate this Diamond of a human being and performer. My favorite song of Oleta, I Just Have To Hear Your Voice ❤
wow oleta adams... everything must change i needed to hear this today and be transported and hugged like that! and @5:15 that note and that piano solo... that vocal pitch, control and phrasing. sometimes music makes me cry... yes.
Spectacular, Crys. She is one of the most underrated singers of our time singing one of the most beautiful songs ever written. This song is true to life. Be sure to check out Bernard Ighner’s version on UA-cam. He wrote it.
I love Oleta too - " Get Here " was the first dance with my new wife in '93. She is my second favorite singer of THIS song however. Ain't no one sing the shit outta it like my man Benard. Check out his version from his " Little Dreamer " LP, released in 1978, four years after it's definitive release with him, Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock, Dave Grusin et.al. from Q's Body Heat LP. I reiterate though - I DO Love me some Oleta.
this concert was the washington symphony, in concert symphony with the divas the orchestration was done by julius p. williams who is also the conductor
Incredible. I was introduced to this stunning song via the amazing Oleta and recently discovered the earlier Randy Crawford version which is entirely different but also brillz. Love Oleta.
2024, and I'm back listening to this beautiful Queen singing one of her masterpieces with accompanying orchestra. This is how much truly the heart. Just wow. 😢😢😢❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

This song is EVERYTHING!! Ms Oleta didn't get her just deserves. As a singer/songwriter and musician.
Such control without effort. Remarkably beautiful.
The depth and color of her voice is luscious.

Hard to fathom how anyone could unlike this performance. Simply beautiful and amazing.

my friend, I totally agree
thank you Luke. It really is spell binding

Hate is a maligned soul. Get God and you simply cannot hate anything Luke

Her voice is a treasured possession!

Such power, rich tones of magnificent sound. Oleta's voice has captured the unmanifested...
I feel like there was this ocean of pain and grief, and everything was swept away with this song.
I was carried away by this undercurrent of melancholy her rendition embodied.
What an amazing voice and song ... I almost cried the first time I listened to this song
Wow, just unbelievable vocal pitch and control. Ms. Olita Adams is a classical artist, true authenticity. Iconic.
Best version ever!!! Voice is absolutely amazing!!!
Randy is my preference. Streisand close.
Sarah Vaughan's >
I love George Benson's version as well.
@@godislove8740 I love both of them as performers. Each of them have their own unique style.
@@JazzFlop212 I will have to give Queen Vaughn a listen, I haven't heard her version.
OMG!! This has got he one of the most beautiful and true to life songs ever written. Absolutely MAGNIFICENT!!
Her phrasings are amazing!..very few singers are able to do that. It takes skill.

Saw her at the Birchmere in Virginia. One of the best concert ever❤️. She is 70 now and is retiring from touring, but was awesome.
I sang this at my graduation from Rehab if change is the answer, perhaps we all, you and I must remember, change is well good.
so bautiful! Thanks!
Godspeed in your journey
Been in love with this woman forever.....that hasn't changed!!!
This song is so beautiful and Oleta Adams is really singing it.! I cry every time i listen to this song so true!!!

The Sarah Vaughan of our time.....Oleta Adams.
