You should react to Rachelle Ferrell singing "With open arms" live at the Apollo. Great whistle note there too ! And a phenomenal sustained note at the end !
Betty was a Formidable Force. She was also a vocal coach to many artists. I remember She was Danity Kane's (MTV Makin the Band) vocal coach. Sorely Missed. Def recommend Deniece Williams, Chanté Moore , Of Course Minnie Ripperton , Lisa Fischer, and also Shanice.
All 80s babies knew when she did it. We ain't no fools, she knew better too could've said it at the time, for us we heard Minnie R, Denice W, Betty W and Shirley M do it. And those I actually heard within my lifetime, there are others. Mariah and Brenda k Star taught me something in the early 90s before they diva'd her up.
Come on Betty... YES!!❤
Betty is #1 on my list of vocalists, just got that range and delivery.
This song and After the Pain are my two favorite Betty Wright songs!! Love her soooo much
Continue to R.I.P Miss Betty Wright ❤ Thanks Shawn and Mel 😊
Betty wright songs are fire 🔥
Betty meant to say feet and is a metaphor for don't go to bed with many men.
When you went to a show and got the BEST and WORTH YOUR MONEY❤❤❤❤❤
From me, she always is best remember for the cleanup woman

Well if you want to hear the original high pitch songbird checkout some Minnie Riperton!
I am sure Minnie Ripperton “Loving You” was the first time for those notes😏

Betty Wright, Minnie Ripperton, and Denise Williams can do that whistle register( that's what the high pitch sound is called) better than anyone!😊
Mariah was NOT the first to do whistle notes nor is she the queen of whistle notes. She’s just popular
