    Her voice is right there with Whitney Houston. She will be a force to reckon with on The Voice as long as her song choices are her on!!!! She has an awesome instrument that shines. I hope someone puts her in the studio so we can listen to this kind of music again.

      @@love_luxury_keys7454 YES she did! I was amazed! Not too many people can handle that song! To hear that she lost that competition doesn't sit well in my soul. I do believe she could sing anything! Even though I didn't watch the competition, i'm secure in believing she deserved to win it. However, i'm glad the world has another opportunity to become aware of such talent! Prior to finding out that she was a contestant on this, I was aware of her gift. Have you heard her sing " come on in out of the rain?"🕎🕎🕒🕒⚓⚓🌊🌊🔱🔱🕊🕊

      The problem was when she released those songs with David Foster Whitney was still on the scene. I believe the label was trying to create another Whitney. Dave Foster and his wife with some amazing people. Wendy still wins in our eyes and heart. I would like to get in on that if we do get an opportunity to get the music re-released. We don't need a movement we just need to support her continuously from now on

    This is one of those things that happens to me every so often over the years since 1993. Spouting off about how mind-boggling and unfair it is that this song wasn't a bigger hit. Literally every single thing about this song is perfection. The writing, the production, the arrangement, the polish, and of course the performance(vocally and instrumentally). Such a moving piece, I just can't even find the words. That bridge actually does something to me physically, I can't explain it. It's like an emotional high that just wants to pull tears out of my eyes. This song is like a walk along the shore with the waves first coming in peacefully; then roaring by the bridge and the outro. All Wendy fans know that she should have been marketed better and her hits should have been much bigger hits. But I would also like to know whatever became of these producers and writers, etc? We need them in the industry! There are those of us who still thrive to this style of ballad---much like Whitney's ballads from her first two albums. That brings me to another point. Perhaps this single, as well as "Come in out of the rain" were released during a time when mainstream music was heading in a different direction. I think if Wendy's ballads had come out around 1986 to 1990, we may have seen a whole different response. Well, I said all that to conclude with this: I can admit when I'm being subjective and I simply like something for myself. But there's no question that, OBJECTIVELY, this song is an absolute gold medalist. I hope I don't leave this earth before finding the answer to why this wasn't at least in the top 10, if not number one.

    • @Novembersongbird

      @@Novembersongbird when I got your comment I had to look back at my own comment to see what I said. Wow I really went on a tirade that day! Another one I'm not sure you ever heard by her is called "whatever you imagine"from the soundtrack to the pagemaster starring Macaulay Culkin. Also a very rare one called "The Way that you Love me" which is from a mid-90s soundtrack to the soap opera One Life to live. If you've never heard them, give them a listen. I'm sure you'll love them

She is a professional and should be well known just as Aretha Franklin, Witney Houston, Jennifer Hudson, Diana Ross. She deserves the opportunities and the recognition of a star! " The Voice" to her was another chance to be recognized. Keep on pushing Wendy! I loved all of your performances!!

Girl named Tom is amazing but you were obviously the best . The competition was very very tough because yourself as well as Paris, Jersheka Holly , Hailey & Jeramy were the best in season 2021, you should have won. I pray to God your where you wanna be.
    To Blake , Kelly , Ariana & John I am expecting you all help Wendy with her solo career. You exceptional
    I’m in awe ………
    May God bless you & your plans your dreams

    We were like a flower
    That never reach full bloom
    We never gave our love much chance to grow
    Even though the feeling was wonderful
    We went on our separate ways
    And all we know
    It's what we share is more than most
    Cause we came all so very close to love
    But we let it slip away
    I always wondered why
    You never chose to stay
    So close to love
    Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
    I find myself dreaming of
    How we came all so very close to love
    I always remember
    The way you care for me
    Time after time my life was in despair
    Yet somehow I always knew you'll be right there
    At times I did not have a prayer
    I'm sure that you and I both know
    That we came all so very close to love
    But we let it slip away
    I always wondered why
    You never chose to stay
    So close to love
    Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
    And I think I had a lover
    And we came all so very close to love
    How can I face the fact it's over
    We're through
    I can't believe it's true
    When I'm alone
    Sometimes I wonder if you knew
    How much I care for you
    So I'm hanging on to the memories
    How hard you make sweet love to me
    And it's so hard to let it go
    When we came all so very close to love
    But we let it slip away
    I always wondered why
    You never chose to stay
    So close to love
    Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
    I find myself dreaming of
    How we came all so very close to love
    We let it slip away
    I always wonder why
    You never chose to, chose to stay
    So close to love
    Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
    I find myself dreaming
    I find myself dreaming of....
    your love.....yeah......
    So close
    So very close to your love

    Been listening to her music since the 90’s she was overshadowed due to Whitney and Mariah but ive always thought her voice was just as good

    Her tone, range and power is better than Whitney’s.

    If I were her manager, I'd suggest taking off anything that seems dated, like Whitney sounding songs. Why? Because her voice is STRONG enough to stand alone, she doesn't need these dated songs. Nope. Let them go in the past. Everything she did on the Voice was amazing. She has to decide what style she wants to do. She can sing anything, including today's music.

    Wendy Moten Whitney Houston Wendy Moten Whitney Houston. Say it over and over again and your brain will not be able to decipher both.

    Is this the same Wendy Moten that competed on the Voice? It can't be, because if it is, some record exec(s) ought to have their heads and ears examined. As seasoned as this woman is, there should be NO way that she has not solidified her place in music. SOOOOO UNFAIR!!

    SHE IS NOT ANY MATCH FOR WHITNEY.
    SHE HAS A NICE VOICE ONLY.
