I was 13 when this was live. It changed my life. I didnt listen to it again until it came out on dvd some 30ish years later and I had still remembered it note for note. Thats is how indelibly it seared itself into my soul. 13 year old me connected with a higher power that day and showed me the whole dimesion of myself that is music and how music can connect you to something greater than yourself and be a spiritual outlet.
I was 13 as well watching this concert and had the exact same reaction- never heard anyone sing like that before and has been my favorite singer ever since
I can’t imagine a group benefit concert put on nowadays with modern bands that would be anywhere near as memorable or talented… and I was only 2 when Live Aid 1985 happened. I truly envy anybody who actually got to watch this magic while it was happening.
And let the church say 🙏🏿 Amen because God blessed this woman with an anointed voice that was meant to uplift, inspire, imbue, motivate, and move us to greater heights in our souls. God is good!!!!!!!
I am watching 'The Wizard of Oz' now & I had to find Patti version. I remember when Ms. Patti did her version I asked my mom how did I know this song. Her gifted voice is Golden. The emotion Ms. Patti has given this song I am feeling now. It is love and hope, something we need today.
I remember you, Patti! You know why? Because your voice traveled all over the planet this night. This night. This night. And Your Spirit traveled all the way out here- to little old me. I thank God for you!!!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿👠👠👠👠🎩🎩🎩🎩
HAPPY 79th BIRTHYEAR belatedly (May 24, 2023) TO our INTERNATIONALLY OUTSTANDING GODMOTHER of SOUL, MISS PATTI LABELLE, who had a challenging birthday this year especially with the passing of Sister Rock Legend Tina on the exact same day! 😮 Nonetheless, despite the challenges of life that befall you & us each day, MISS MUSICAL DYNAMITE FASHION ICON PATTI LABELLE THANK YOU for INSPIRING us ALWAYS to WHOLISTICALLY ASPIRE for EXCELLENCE throughout LIFE'S JOURNEY!!!😢 We LOVE ❤U MAMA P!🎉
The Queen Of All Divas. She tore that song a brand new one. The only reason I brought the Live Aid dvd. And everyone has been attempting some variance of her version since she recorded it .
18 years old watching this filled with dreams and passion wanting a better day. Gosh this was an amazing time. So sad where this world has come to. 80's ruled still does!💋
When I heard her version of this song years ago, this woman touched nerves I didn’t know I had and gave me goosebumps like never before 😩😩…My God I can never listen to another version of this song. Thank you patti for touching my soul 🥺❤️
....she complained that she was not included in the song....WE ARE THE WORLD....she felt SNUBBED and DISSED....so for the LIVE AID CONCERT....BOB GELDOF....the producer of this event had heard about her complaint...and flew HER and HER BAND....VIA PRIVATE HELICOPTER....and she DID....THIS....
Anybody who has something negative to say about Patti's style of singing doesn't season their food. Hell, probably puts raisins in their potato salad too. 😒
Oh my gosh!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 You nailed that one!!!! You better read these children a damn book and let them know what time is on the clock! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Everyone has their own taste in music/singing for sure. One thing that can’t be disputed is that God gave Patti a gift and she uses it to the fullest. She is on the top 100 singers of all time list, where she rightfully belongs.
Damn, when I thought after all these damn years that the Apollo (with Sinnad) was her absolute best rendition of Somewhere Over the 🌈 and then I just ran across this interpretation and oh my gosh! My absolute favorite singer comppletey blew! Damn Yonce, Mariah, Whitney, Barbara, Whispering Ross, and Hateretha can’t touch this beautiful lady!
It's quite ignorant to me how so many lower level demons can criric Patti LaBelle's Vocal Performances throughout her career, but they won't do it to the leading singers of today. Make it make sense. This Queen has been singing her fave off and her heart out for over sixty years, show some respect. I'd like to see any of the leading singers kerp their clothes on and sing live for an hour show. This lady, this Philadelphia Soul, Legend of Soul and American Pop Music had paied her dues, slayed for yesrs and owe nobody anything.
one of Prince's favorite vocalists....enough said. She's a diva...if you dont think so, you're an idiot. How somebody gon' break her microphone like she did, singing "Forever Young", and then in a stadium of 100,000-plus people, can still be heard singing off the microphone that she broke and laid down on the stage?...up to that point, I had never seen or heard anything like that.
I know that millions of people love Patti LaBelle's singing and she had a great career. But I just don't like that nasal quality in her singing voice. She has power, range and style. I want to, but I can't enjoy it.
i AM A FAN. BUT THIS IS THE PERIOD WHERE SHE DID THOSE TERRIBLE THINGS WITH HER VOICE. YES, WE KNOW YOU HAVE A TALENT, WHY MURDER THE SONG WITH THE HISTRIONICS AND OVER SINGING? SHE BECAME MORE TONED DOWN AND TASTEFUL WITH HER VOCALS IN THE 90S AND INCREASED HER FAN BASE. BY THE WAY, THIS IS NOT ON THE LIVE AID DVD...WHERE IS IT FROM?
It IS from Live Aid! It may not have made it to DVD but there were millions of us with a stack of blank tapes and VCR! I recorded the whole thing.....six full tapes and I've still got them. Her set was FABULOUS (not my kind of music at all). I don't like the vocal gymnastics either but she put her heart, soul and every emotion going into that performance. She even carried on singing when her mic failed (and the crowd could still hear her!).
@@bonobo2go I could so appreciate people like you. “Not my style but she was fabulous” That’s true honesty, I wish a class of “know it all” would take note of you.

After that performance, we old folks in church would say, "she walked the dog". Wasn't nothin left to do.
Miss Patti has no chill. Even at the beginning, she already gave a wig snatching note. Wow.

The way she still singing behind the stage 😂❤

because they all need autotune & pitch controle when performing "live"
The best singer in the whole wide world

Her epic performance at Live Aid gave her such a well deserved comeback & a mass of new fans all over the world.

I listen to this song at least once a day. It never fails, this is pure medicine

Nobody will ever be able to sing this song or any song she touches.❤️❤️❤️🧡
Fantasia’s version of You Are My Friend did Patti justice. Patti stood up before she finished the song. Patti is one of a kind.
Patti showed all the way out my goodness what a Voice😁 She was giving vocal class and church to everyone in that arena that night.
I love that all her performances of SOTR have different riffs and notes that made them unique 🤩❤

Patti is the Greatest Lady I have listened to many years the months I was in the hospital her music got me thru tough times
Mama patti's resonance can destroy the stratosphere in a milli second 😆
Say it again 🔥🔥
Imagine this was the first time you ever heard Somewhere Over The Rainbow. It's a great tune and she left it all on the stage, fo sho.
15 seconds in, and THAT note doesn't just bring tears to my eyes, it makes me cry.
I thought it was only me. It just ...emblazons the soul.

I don’t know if was the purpose of the concert… but patti delivered an epic and emotional performance, im speechless.

Good Lord! I didn't even know she was a part of Live Aid! That is, folks, how you sing a damn song!

Great Singer !!

You can't get mad at the woman for breathing life into a song that was barely living. Lol
That’s how you perform take notes

Seloko. Canta demais.
There's no such thing as singing too much.
She got some wind pips on her blow Patti.....
Loud, powerful and extra as hell. I can see why most love her singing, I cannot say the same on this song LOL.

😶speechless
aint no touching miss patti

Jaj de buta!
I do love my Patti, but before you label her the best female singer in the world. You need to hear Rachelle Ferrell.
Freddie Mercury sister?
He could never my man
@@thenook-bykz I was about to say, HOW DARE YOU!!

It’s just a LITTLE bit over the top. Just a LITTLE bit.
But…
Try this at home - will never work😂

Too much changes, doesn't looks like it self. The song is so much more beatiful than she does!
GIRL BYE!!
@@patgorden5002 unseasoned grilled chicken eaters over there, no need to consider.
Don't watch then. Simple. Everybody has preferences.
She ruins songs like this.
It's terrible isn't it?
To different for me. It’s not meant to sound like this version.
@@desperatemohammedantheworl5833 do you like patti label ?
Nah trust me she ain’t ruin it... I’m guessing u haven’t listened to her other versions then smh
she made the song 10x better. she brought an entire different feeling to the song. she was determined to get over that rainbow
i AM A FAN. BUT THIS IS THE PERIOD WHERE SHE DID THOSE TERRIBLE THINGS WITH HER VOICE. YES, WE KNOW YOU HAVE A TALENT, WHY MURDER THE SONG WITH THE HISTRIONICS AND OVER SINGING?

At the end of the day to each his own, GO QUEEN PATTI!!
Nobody asked u for an opinion from your sedentary position.
