    Cher intended for this to be a ballad, but they said people don't want a ballad so turned it into a dance track. At the Kennedy awards, Adam Lambert honored her by singing this as a slow soft ballad and Cher was literally brought to tears by it. You should check it out, it's stunning.

      That's completely untrue. I'm born in 84. If you're born in 81 you would would know well enough that is false. The entire album was a dance album. Also, the sound was completely original at the time it was released. The production is too well put-together to have been decided as a change. Also, Cher is not even credited as a writer. She was pretended with the track in a demo.

    You can thank Cher and her producers for first introducing the world to auto-tune as an effect rather than just a way to improve a singers pitch! And, she was 52 when this song came out in 1999 and reached number one on the charts - she was the oldest female artist to perform this feat. And she's won an Oscar, an Emmy, and of course Grammy's - and, she was the first female performer to EVER show her belly-button on national TV and it was a HUGE deal at the time. She's also been a Barbie doll!! She is a true icon!

    Cher definitely has a unique voice. While there are other talented women with strong lower registers (Karen Carpenter, Anne Murray, and Tina Turner all come to mind), Cher has a wonderfully distinct quality to her tone that no one else sounds like.
    Interesting fact about this song: When it reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1999, Cher was 53 years old. This made her the oldest woman ever to top that chart, a record she holds to this day. The previous record was held by Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane/Starship, who was 47 when "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now", a song you previously reacted to, reached #1 (in fact, she had beaten her own record, since she was 45 when "We Built This City" topped the charts in 1985).
    As others have mentioned, "Believe" was the first major hit to make liberal use of AutoTune as a deliberate voice effect rather than a means of correcting pitch. In fact, for a long time, this technique was known as "The Cher Effect".

    Finally, you are doing this song and getting to hear a more modern sound of Cher. Believe" departed from Cher's pop rock style of the time, adopting an upbeat dance-pop style. It featured a pioneering use of the audio processing software Auto-Tune to distort Cher's vocals, which was widely imitated and became known as the "Cher effect". This being one of the times the software was used to create and interesting techno sound instead of trying to improve someone's voice, which Cher doesn't need. The lyrics describe empowerment and self-sufficiency after a painful breakup. This topped the charts an became a staple at clubs as one of the most popular dance songs. Cher is head and shoulders above the rest as a true legend and one of the most unique voices around. You should do her song "I FOUND SOMEONE" and her duet with Peter Cetera, "AFTER ALL".

    Cher has been nominated twice for an Academy Award, and won for Moonstruck. She is an amazing actress, picking her roles very carefully. I love her in Mama Mia 2. Lol
    She has been nominated for 2 BAFTAs - (the UK's version of the Academy Awards)
    She has been nominated for numerous Emmy Awards, and won an Emmy for her variety show.
    She's won 3 Golden Globes
    She's won a Grammy
    All she needs is a Tony to complete her EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony)
    Also - - not only is Cher a huge supported of the LBGT+ community, she is hilarious. She once called into CSPAN to ask a question, and the anchor knew who she was immediately because of her distinct voice. She'll often call Anderson Cooper (the CNN anchor) after a story about some natural disaster, and ask him how she can send money to the people affected by the disaster. She's done this with Hurricane Katrina and the 2010 earthquake in Haiti.
    She is amazing.

    Now listen to Adam Lambert's version of this song when he is performing at The Kennedy Center Honors. Cher was receiving the award. Cher is simply amazing! In the 70's all of us wanted to look like her, dress like her, heck, BE her. Here's a great stat involving Cher..... she is the only artist to have a number-one single on a Billboard chart in each of past six decades. Plus, she has a Golden Globe for "Silkwood" and an Oscar for best actress in "Moonstruck". One of my favorite movies (I've seen it 20-30 times). She is a force!!!

    I'm a man of a particular age and I want to say that I have been a Fan of Cher's since I was 5 years old when she had a song called
    " You better sit-down kids" My parents were divorcing, and I fell in love with this song and Cher, I would take the 45 single to the bath with me and to bed. Since then, she has wowed me with her voice and talent beyond anyone else. She has a library of songs throughout the last 6 decades that would fill a reaction video for years to come, also she has done duets with some of the most iconic people in music history. Tina Turner, David Bowie, Meatloaf, Chrissie Hyndes (The pretenders) Peter Cetera lead singer of "Chicago" you can react to Cher with many other icons forever and never run out of Songs Cher is AMAZING as a singer, Actress, And Television Star and Fashion Icon unmatched by anyone Please react to more Cher in all these categories

    One of my favorite Cher songs is her least personal favorite "Jesse James"...her voice is so powerful in it. I really love the lyrics. If you find yourself going to check out Adam Lambert, he has been singing in Queen for a few years now. Find his version of Queen's "Who Wants to Live Forever"...it cuts so deep and is hauntingly beautiful. Adam really did Freddy justice making such a beautiful tribute to an amazing voice.

      I got to see him sing live 8 months after the Kennedy Center Honors, on tour with Queen. The concert was over 2 hours & Adam never hit a wrong note, was never off key, belted out the rockers & tenderly sang the ballads. His voice is so pure.
      I went to a lot of shows back in the 70's, saw everyone from Zeppelin to Elvis (even saw Cher with Sonny). Adam was every bit as enjoyable (& I've been a Queen fan since the release of their first album in 1973). I was thrilled to be seeing Brian May & Roger Taylor in person & you could see their rapport with Adam. A sold out arena, people of all ages, singing along to favorites, fun & really emotional at times (especially when honoring Freddie).
      Anyone who walks in with reservations about Adam walk out exhilarated & singing his praises. He's truly an amazing talent. I wish everyone could hear him live. But for those who haven't, his performance for Cher is a good indicator of how good he really is.

In fact, Cher tweeted her after the performance, applauding Ella, and saying it brought tears to her eyes.

    Cher is one of the few popular singers whose voice actually improved after she was going into her 40s. Tina Turner is another. Dolly Parton is another. They all developed a richer more rounded tone. So great to see you do reactions on all three of these ladies but their early performances are just the starters. There's something very exciting about a mature lady coming into full bloom and commanding that star power. As some others have already mentioned "Moonstruck" is an incredible movie for which she won a Best Actress Oscar, and was acknowledged by the American Film Institute as the eighth best romantic comedy film of all time . She has done a number of really great film performances such as "Mask" "Witches of Eastwick" and "Mermaids". Definitely worth a watch.
