No reason to lie, I call her Miss Mary too. There's just something so real and honest about her gift. Tough time or not, I kinda like this time in her career. The grit is just oooooo!!
NEITHER MARY NOR MONICA WILL MAKE US FORGET DOROTHY MOORE'S VERSION WHO THEY BOTH LISTENED TO IN THE 1970'S OR JOE SIMONS VERSION I PLAY THEM BACK TO BACK
The Boy Is Mine era is Monica's best era when talking about vocals. Her vocals were clean, clear, and precise. If only Monica had a better team behind her. Monica should have been a major pop star.
I agree. Her acting all ghetto and gangster act on versus was a stunt. Monica has class and should roll with that. Had she had more support I suppose she’d be known even the more to this generation. Her voice is beautiful
Monica was a major pop star. She had 3 number 1s and a slew of Top 10s. I think for a Black Artist to be a huge Pop Super Star they have to be extremely talented and work very very hard. I just don't think Monica has that work ethic. Look at Whitney, Rihanna, Janet, Beyonce. The number of projects they produced was astonishing.
@@brucep9393 Monica was not a huge pop star. Majority of her success came from one album and then she fizzled out. The problem was Monica did not want to make pop records. She wanted to do solely r&b music. Which explains her decline after The Boy Is Mine. She had success with After The Storm but nothing to the degree of The Boy Is Mine. I do agree with poor work ethic. Monica has never even headlined a major tour in her name. I think Monica is just comfortable making music and going home. She doesn't seek fame or big records.
Go listen to Monica's albums so y'all can stop acting surprised by her vocals. Also, go watch her performances. The girl has ALWAYS had amazing vocals.
Mary’s voice is like no other!! Can’t be compared - I’ll wait. Yea it’s an argument LOL I absolutely love her voice and the truth and experience she puts behind her singing. ♥️♥️♥️🥰
+Sam Pottorff Yes and no. Non blacks sing gospel, and they are not necessarily soulful. I hear what you are saying in terms of some black singers. The gospel is the "good news" in song or spoken that should come from the soul regardless of the person.
Monica’s beautiful notes and Mary’s raspy emotional notes were such a great combo on this performance 😍👏🏾 ... its an amazing song and you can tel Monica was loving how mica was going off on the mic 🔥
I couldn't tell you how many times I've seen this, and every time it reminds me how awesome Mary J is. I believe she is a voice not to be soon forgotten and I'll go further to say that I think her best is yet to come. She will be up there with the iconic voice like Etta.
LMAO. Only in the 90s could you get away with wearing big-ass paparazzi shades after the sun done went down ---- INSIDE at that ---and pass it off as a fashion statement
There is alot of thoughts runs through my mind in why my sister felt the need to wear the shades. My sister always done that when that fool she was with hit her
Chills FREAKIN' chills! I must say, Monica surprised me. In the beginning, it seemed a bit off, but once Marry started, they both KILLED it! Mary has that raspy soulful voice and Monica has a younger, sweet soulful voice. A GREAT combo! Dorothy Moore is the Queen, but I have to give it up to them, I LOVE this cover... most of the time I hate covers, but THIS...YES, THIS!!!
@@appetite4chic878Monica didn't cover that song. Actually her song "Everything To Me" used "Silly" by Denice as a template for her song but it wasn't a cover because it's a different song with completely different lyrics.
I can't help but love them both..... Their honesty just and realness comes through their performances,voices, and personalities. I love down to earth people. A fan from day one of both Mary and Monica. Who needs auto tune, when your voice does what it's suppose to do?
Two of the best female singers of our era period.monica and mary smashed this to pieces no doubt about.vocals were razy it sends chills through my spine.
Wow. ! This is probably my all time favourite record. I love the Dorothy Moore version. She sings it so beautifully and the song often brings me to tears. I had never heard this version but it is sung beautifully aswell. Sends shivers down me. ! Beautiful song. I think Dorothy's version you can't beat but this comes a close second. Beautiful!
well, who’s the living legend? mary j blige. who’s still a mainstream A list star? mary j blige💁🏽♂️ who sold more records and had more hits and is represented by several peers in the industry of different genres? BOOM! MARY JANE BLIGE!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽
OMGGGGG!!!! why didn't I know about this performance.... this has me almost in tears..... this was back when Mary was still on drugs and was really singing her ass off👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Love these two!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ME SOME MARY J BLIGE!!! CAN YOU SAY BIGGEST FAN EVER SAW HER IN CONCERT IN ATL I WAS FRONT AND CENTER JUST 3 ROWS BACL STANDING AND SINGING RIGHT ALONG, PROBABLY PISSED A BUNCH OF FOLKS OFF ALL I CAN SAY IS SORRY BUT NOT
have always been a fan of Mary JB's but had never heard of Monica before.what a gorgeous and equally talented lady she is. Together they are awesome ,the greatest compliment I can give them is that to me this is version is as as good as Dorothy Moore's iconic original,
+Girl Andrews Hello Girl, i agree Monica is sensational here, I must say however i will not be on your side when Wales tour your country in June, but I must admit to beat the all blacks is the ulimate honour in rugby, good on you New Zealand gods of rugby.

I miss that raspy raw sound in Mary's voice.
That was a Coke drain stuck in her Throat….🤷🏽🤫👀 But I miss it too 🤷🏽💯🫣
Right that's what I'm saying❤🔥😍😩♥️
Monica's vocals were on 🔥this night!
Miss Mary raspy voice even though I knew it wasn't a good time in her life I still loved her soulful raspy voice Monica was flawless
This was Mary's "partying" with K-Ci days...I'm sure that contributed to the rasp in her voice back then.
No reason to lie, I call her Miss Mary too. There's just something so real and honest about her gift. Tough time or not, I kinda like this time in her career. The grit is just oooooo!!
That raspy voice just adds some gritty soul
@@newport2926 exactly
Mary owns this. As a child of the 70's...she owns it, cause she knows it! So much love for this song! Monica was also awesome :)
NEITHER MARY NOR MONICA WILL MAKE US FORGET DOROTHY MOORE'S VERSION WHO THEY BOTH LISTENED TO IN THE 1970'S OR JOE SIMONS VERSION I PLAY THEM BACK TO BACK

@@blessedandbeautiful8365 she didint even act ghetto what the hell. She sat there and listened to both of their music
@@Justaskkjames first two albums
Go listen to Monica's albums so y'all can stop acting surprised by her vocals. Also, go watch her performances. The girl has ALWAYS had amazing vocals.
And I mean ALWAYS 🗣👏🏾
Preach sis💯
Mary J been fly❤
Monica is my favorite she is an animal with the vocals
Mary’s Raspy voice sets it offf really have u 😭😭😭😭
Monica slayed vocally and looked amazing!
Mary’s voice is like no other!! Can’t be compared - I’ll wait. Yea it’s an argument LOL I absolutely love her voice and the truth and experience she puts behind her singing. ♥️♥️♥️🥰
that’s just the plain old facts! she incomparable! period. who don’t like it can go kick rocks. she’s the legend with soul!
MARY WAS GOING THRU SUMTHIN!!!! THE RUGGEDNESS AND MISHAPS MADE IT ALL PERFECT THRU SONG
Mary added Gospel everytime she sings live it sounds like church!! especially back then in the 90s...love Monica too!!!❤
+GOLD- FACE Not gospel, but soul! Her voiced has aged like wine and is now priceless. Even when she sang with Whitney, she brought it!
+Richard Stapleton Well, when you think about it, Gospel IS 'soul' music. ;)
+Sam Pottorff Yes and no. Non blacks sing gospel, and they are not necessarily soulful. I hear what you are saying in terms of some black singers. The gospel is the "good news" in song or spoken that should come from the soul regardless of the person.
Monica sounds at her absolute best here....
Marky Mark yup and when she performed on Oprah
Yo this was so good. Nobody tried to over sing one another flowed very well together
Many of you act surprised that Monica can sing. Where have you been? Hahaha! This is still Dorothy M. 's song though.
I know what you mean Dorothy set a very high bar here ,but the girls do a great job too don't you think?
I thought it was Etta James
Mary, mary, mary you reach our souls.....I'll take this one for me sister cause she just loves your song
Monica’s beautiful notes and Mary’s raspy emotional notes were such a great combo on this performance 😍👏🏾 ... its an amazing song and you can tel Monica was loving how mica was going off on the mic 🔥
BEST DUET EVER!!!! I GOT THE CHILLS
Whitney & Mary J singing AINT NO WAY
Mannnn.. that run Mary hit after the second verse brrrooooo… that soul and fervor and grit combined is out of sight.
Not me rewinding
Monica's voice is so beautiful 2 hear. She's still one of my favorites of all time
I couldn't tell you how many times I've seen this, and every time it reminds me how awesome Mary J is. I believe she is a voice not to be soon forgotten and I'll go further to say that I think her best is yet to come. She will be up there with the iconic voice like Etta.
ELLA MADE A STUDIO VERSION OF THIS SONG BUT JOE SIMON AND DOROTHY MOORE'S VERSION TOOK THIS SONG OUTTA THIS ATMOSPHERE
@@JomoDaMusicManyep, agreed, this is pretty rough compared to Moores version.
Mary & those shades... you know she was going through it.
LMAO. Only in the 90s could you get away with wearing big-ass paparazzi shades after the sun done went down ---- INSIDE at that ---and pass it off as a fashion statement
There is alot of thoughts runs through my mind in why my sister felt the need to wear the shades. My sister always done that when that fool she was with hit her
Mary was high af during this performance. But she's still my girl.
Lol love Mary 😎 and all, but covering up those gorgeous eyes 😍 👑💎QUEEN👑💎
Mary J is forever my Queen ❤️❤️ her !
Chills FREAKIN' chills! I must say, Monica surprised me. In the beginning, it seemed a bit off, but once Marry started, they both KILLED it! Mary has that raspy soulful voice and Monica has a younger, sweet soulful voice. A GREAT combo!
Dorothy Moore is the Queen, but I have to give it up to them, I LOVE this cover... most of the time I hate covers, but THIS...YES, THIS!!!
Well said.
Hello from 5 years in the future... Monica also covered Denise Williams- Silly Of Me and did really great as well
@@appetite4chic878Monica didn't cover that song. Actually her song "Everything To Me" used "Silly" by Denice as a template for her song but it wasn't a cover because it's a different song with completely different lyrics.
They killed it. Amazing performance.
I can't help but love them both..... Their honesty just and realness comes through their performances,voices, and personalities. I love down to earth people. A fan from day one of both Mary and Monica. Who needs auto tune, when your voice does what it's suppose to do?
