That subtle change combined with the different music styles really puts an opposing spin on the same situation. One of the reasons why I love the story that this song tells. To me it always sounded like one or both of the lovers has to leave town soon and they know this can't last.
Brava, Jennifer! - the pain, the emotion delivered via that song was pure high art expressed as an actresses and vocally - Jennifer you are a treasure and loved as a singer performer supreme - Brava!!!!
Jennifer's vocal quality is precious, soft, variegated and wonderful, but I think that the dance version proposed by Beyoncè gives the song an extra edge...
Wooooo ! She was fabulous with this song and she's absolutely beautiful with her vocal range . And to the ones saying she's "yelling" that's a strong, church voice she has and she's an amazing performer. I saw her on Broadway a few years ago when she was in "The Color Purple 🟣💜 " play and she was magnificent in that also . And I love her talk show , too .
The problem is that Effie put her heart and soul in to the song. The Disco version while it's fine for a dance, there was no raw emotion on Deena and the Dreamgirls part.
@@ladyfire44 Yet it was still an amazing dance/disco/club song. You can say whatever you want but Dina put her own spin on it & made it a fierce remix..💃🕺🙌🏼💖
Jennifer you are so great with an amazing feeling !!! All your pain and treasure is in your voice. I REALLY LOVE TO LISTEN YOU !!!! You are my Inspiration....
Actually, her tone lays between Aretha and Patti Labelle😂 Her headvoice is as powerful as Labelle's even if she under utilizes them and she's got Aretha's Soul
Curtis was a massive dick to pull this move on Effie. Jenifer version make me get into my feelings and Beyoncé version make me want to hit the club love both version
Truth and fiction overlap -- this kind of thing was somewhat common, for multiple artists to do the same songs, but one particular example is 'I Heard it Through The Grapevine' - Marvin Gaye's version is the one most people think of first, but Gladys Knight and the Pips were the first to release it. Berry Gordy put out Marvin's version TWO WEEKS after Gladys. She was not thrilled, especially because they were label mates.
Well, Beyonce as always sounds perfect and commercial as in all of her songs, that's why Jennifer's version is better for me, you can hear and feel real emotions. Jennifer is mesmerizing in this, while Beyonce sings everything the same way.
So, here's something that got me thinking: Beyoncé sang this song like she left her heart and soul at home, and yet, she totally crushed it. It's like a showcase of her insane talent. But now, enter Jennifer Hudson, who took the same song and poured every ounce of her heart and soul into it, and it seemed effortless for her. Beyoncé goes soulless, while Jennifer Hudson goes all-in with the soul.
That's the point of the movie. Effie's voice is soulful, while Deena's voice is much more commercial, which is why Curtis pushes her to the front of the Dreams - he knows larger audiences will flock to the lighter voiced, slimmer (and in this adaptation, fairer-skinned) Deena than the more soulful and full-figured Effie simply because Deena's voice is better suited for the genres that larger audiences prefer.
Because Bey's version was based on the one night stand culture of the time. Jennifer's version was about the loss of love that couldn't be. One is based love, the latter is based on lust.
@@beasaroseco5840 This song has been in my playlist since I was 16 and I think the reason why is because of how it portrays the different sides of the same situation: a one-night stand. I often imagine both versions as being sung by the same person: Effie's is the hurt she truly feels while Deena's is the unbothered facade she puts on, or Effie's is a heartbreaking formative experience while Deena's is some years later after she's been jaded. Particularly in the musical version, where Deena's version keeps the forlorn lyrics of the bridge and the disco style can't fully strip it of its emotional impact, I detect some concealed/dressed-up sadness in Deena's version, showing a woman who's partying away the feelings she's shoved down.
This song has been in my playlist for years and my imagination has applied it to multiple different stories, and I've often imagined both versions as being sung by the same woman. I've imagined Effie's version as the woman singing about a formative experience that broke her heart, and Deena's version being the same woman a couple of years later when she's detached/jaded and pretending that this is all a good time. That, or they could even be the same woman singing about the same situation, with Deena's version being the unbothered facade that she puts on but Effie's version being the hurt she truly feels.
Jennifer hudson le dieron el Oscar por esta película,yo le hubiera dado 7 esta increíble y después de tantos años sigue siendo la enorme cantante de USA
While i do like the Disco version, nothing tops Jennifer’s version. You can feel the pain and emotion like she really killed it. But I believe that’s the point also. They steal her song that has the soul and meaning and turn it into something that’s trending so it’ll sell.
I think the difference of the two version is that beyonce sang faster than jennifer so you can hear clearly the clarity of jennifer's voice especially with high pitch so i definitely like jennifers voice here
Son dos formas muy diferentes de expresarse ante una misma situacion. Desde luego qie Houdson canta con el corazón y las dreamgirls con el cuerpo. Buen ejemplo para ilustrar el desmantelamiento de la musica. De arte pada a ser solo.unpriducto comercial
Jennifer Hudson sing really with her Soul....Beyoncé sing Like a backing vocal .nothing else !! Her husband make a lot if money with her body but her VOICE..juste they make buisenesd HUDSON STAY FOR EVER LIKE ARETHA... THIS IS THE DIFFÉRENCE ❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉
Jennifer Hudson she has incredible voice perfectly in this movie like Judy holiday she is big highest big strong voice ever i known her on American idol Neil it bravo elxent she did next musical movie it's respect from by queen of soul Aretha Franklin Jennifer Hudson she has incredible amazing strongest bigsed voice the best ever hit highset bigsed note she hit it like Jennifer Hudson from two musical movies like dreamgrials and respect
Jhud most definitely! Same song two different vocalist. Jhuds was acoustic and you were able hear the vocals. The disco version you couldn’t here the vocals due to the background instrumental.
17 yrs later and one can't sell an album or single to save their life, while the other is legend. Both of the songs Beyonce did outstreamed and outsold. Listen was the biggest hit of the movie. Which is why its still being sung in competitions etc. While the other has become a relic. Which is why ill never take youtube comments seriously.
I sense a hater. Jennifer Hudson hasn't released an album in 10 years because she's busy in other lanes. Also, "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going" was obviously the biggest hit of the movie.
And the Oscar’s goes to…❤ the disco version rocks too, I’d love to hear beyonce sing this and not enunciate the last vowel so closed, it makes the disco sound modern and not free flowing.
jennifer: we've got one night only lets go slow drink some champagne and chill beyonce : we've got one night only lets go to the club dance it up then go back to my place LOL🤣🤣🤣😂😂
![Eminem - Fuel (feat. JID) [Official Lyric Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/t5H_CewqpKA/mqdefault.jpg)
Jennifer Hudson's voice is simply HEAVENLY!
It's difficult to hate the Disco version cuz it slaps so hard!!!!!
It could of been much better if Beyonce would sing a bit more
I sort of prefer the disco version because that’s one of my favorite genres of music. Jennifer’s is still really good
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Facts
@@kenthuang436 zoom and you 777
Two exceptional vocalists! Two wonderful versions of the same song.
You have to pick a side sorry
@@lovethefieldsDefinitely Jennifer this time
@@lovethefieldsI could cry to her version
Exceptional is a bit of a stretch I’ll say pretty good cause my standards are Whitney, Patti or a Chaka
@@blkprince198 jhud outshines Patti and shakka 10 fold
Let be honest, Jennifer Hudson killed this and her Oscar proves it!
salote
Jennifer in all honesty the stronger singer.❤❤❤
Effie sings, "YOU'VE got one night only," while Deena sings, "I'VE got one night only."
Great observation
That subtle change combined with the different music styles really puts an opposing spin on the same situation. One of the reasons why I love the story that this song tells. To me it always sounded like one or both of the lovers has to leave town soon and they know this can't last.
Are you sure?
If "Can I copy your homework?", "Yeah, just change it up a bit, so it doesn't look obvious you copied." was a song 😂
@@veeganboyLmao🤣🤣
Love Jennifer Hudson singing it, she put more emotion into the song.
Curtis didn't care about that 😂
It’s the ideia, one more emotional and one more danceable (disco)
I love Jennifer singing it but that disco version makes you really move I love it !!
Brava, Jennifer! - the pain, the emotion delivered via that song was pure high art expressed as an actresses and vocally - Jennifer you are a treasure and loved as a singer performer supreme - Brava!!!!
Ooh...yes God!
Effy White had DEPTH. Deena Jones had mass appeal....
I love both but that Yonce on the disco version is my fave especially on the extended version
Love the Disco version....but Jennifer take my breath away she touch my soul❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like Jennifer Hudson's version. I love her voice ❤❤😊😮
Jennifer's vocal quality is precious, soft, variegated and wonderful, but I think that the dance version proposed by Beyoncè gives the song an extra edge...
This is perfection Jennifer Hudson is Magnifent❤❤❤👌🏾👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾😘🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💫💫💫
*magnificent
Still listening in 2024

Jennifer Hudson THE BEST
I prefer Jennifer Hudson version of this song its justed heavenly
Both versions we're incredible 🙌🏼💖
Effie's version is more emotional and not just superficial.
@@ThePharaoho Dina's is a absolutely a perfect club/Disco song for ppl who like to dance & have fun 💃🕺🥂🎉
@@jaygarcia8508 For the queens

Jennifer you are so great with an amazing feeling !!!
All your pain and treasure is in your voice.
I REALLY LOVE TO LISTEN YOU !!!!
You are my Inspiration....
I like the version of Jennifer Hudson
Jennifer is the best she has got an amazing voice
She’s like a young Aretha here with a hint of Patti! Jennifer did this. 1:12
Actually, her tone lays between Aretha and Patti Labelle😂
Her headvoice is as powerful as Labelle's even if she under utilizes them and she's got Aretha's Soul
Years later, Jennifer would actually PORTRAY the queen of soul herself!
She looks like
A baby when she riding in that bus in the movie 😊
Curtis was a massive dick to pull this move on Effie. Jenifer version make me get into my feelings and Beyoncé version make me want to hit the club love both version

That’s the point of the movie and the character? Lol
@@davidmoya2231exactly. They’re so dense lol
Saying Beyonce sings everything the same way is very bold while praising Jennifer Hudson…. Who approaches most songs the same exact way 🤣
I alny here fakness when Jennifer sings. She overdoes it, it doesn't feel genuine to me. Beyonce's is amazing.
This is truly powerful the Jennifer Hudson version that is.
Best Film of all time!!! 👑👑👑👑🐝
THE RENAISSANCE WAY
THIS A REMINDER
Jennifer hudson can sing❤❤

I love jennifer she touches my soul.
Jennifer Hudson voice is❤ awesome
Legendary!!!
I Just Consider Both Their Versions Combined As One Song ❤

We need this soundtrack on vinyl, please!
I remember years ago when I made an audio mix of both for a friend of mine in a drag show … was a standing ovation!
My FAVORITE part of the movie!
JENNIFER FOR ME "HANDS DOWN" VERY BEAUTIFUL.
Is that Beyoncé? I don’t have a TV, first time seeing her. Wow she’s mesmerising
Hey Plastique!
A beautiful woman
Me gusta la versión de Beyonce, pero definitivamente adoro la voz poderosa de Jenifer Hudson.
One of the BEST MOVIES EVER!
Jennifer is the best
Love Jenifer and want more of her with this one

Jennifer was better no shade to Beyonce but Jennifer voice is so deep connecting her voice pulls you right in
Effie version for the win 🥇
It sounds good screwed too
Beyoncé ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such a great voice ❣️😮
Amazing Vocals the entire cast
Loves her..Voice J Hudson she got A Soul..
QUEENS OF SOUL BEAUTIFUL BRILLIANT BRILLIANT SINGER BRILLIANT ACTRESS BRILLIANT
I love both versions but the disco version is better❤
Both versions were amazing
3:28, Diana was so proud
Jhud earned the Oscar, period.
i get chills
Effie's demo was scrapped for Deenah to release it officially as her single.
beautifully shot film
So touching!
A Beyoncé é maravilhosa"
mas Jennifer Hudson é mais fabulosa e canta muito mais""divas❤❤
I love Jennifer's version of this song❤🎉
I think the difference of the two version is that beyonce sang faster than jennifer so you can hear clearly the clarity of jennifer's voice especially with high pitch so i definitely like jennifers voice here
I love the disco version
Jennifer is star with talent and powerful voice, beyonce is just a performer and she gets promoted . Talent is JENNIFER
Son dos formas muy diferentes de expresarse ante una misma situacion. Desde luego qie Houdson canta con el corazón y las dreamgirls con el cuerpo. Buen ejemplo para ilustrar el desmantelamiento de la musica. De arte pada a ser solo.unpriducto comercial
Love both
It will always be Jennifer ❤
Jennifer Hudson sing really with her Soul....Beyoncé sing Like a backing vocal .nothing else !! Her husband make a lot if money with her body but her VOICE..juste they make buisenesd HUDSON STAY FOR EVER LIKE ARETHA... THIS IS THE DIFFÉRENCE ❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉
It's just like Destiny Child's song No, No, No - there's a slow version and an upbeat version
둘다 너무 최고의 가수
Hello !

Jennifer the best!!!!!!

Jennifer Hudson she has incredible voice perfectly in this movie like Judy holiday she is big highest big strong voice ever i known her on American idol Neil it bravo elxent she did next musical movie it's respect from by queen of soul Aretha Franklin Jennifer Hudson she has incredible amazing strongest bigsed voice the best ever hit highset bigsed note she hit it like Jennifer Hudson from two musical movies like dreamgrials and respect
Aku suka Jennifer Hudson
I adore DANCERS 🎉💪👌👏
Jhud most definitely! Same song two different vocalist. Jhuds was acoustic and you were able hear the vocals. The disco version you couldn’t here the vocals due to the background instrumental.

Which is why its still being sung in competitions etc. While the other has become a relic. Which is why ill never take youtube comments seriously.
One is AN E.G.O.T while the other is still trying to win AOTY. See how ridiculous you sound?
I sense a hater. Jennifer Hudson hasn't released an album in 10 years because she's busy in other lanes. Also, "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going" was obviously the biggest hit of the movie.
this is a rare instance of two very opposite versions of a song being equally good!
Linda música....
Jennifer Hudson!
The cut from the slow to the Disco version could have been so much better !!
Imagine not only having your first solo debut stolen
But also turned into a swingers club scene! I'd be fuming 🤬
I feel like Bey is singing the song from her perspective and J-hud is singing it from hers you know which makes since
2:07 is exactly what happened to DC
Beyoncé version was superb
2024🙏🏿
Love when when Effie song it better then Dana and the Dreamgirls did it
By default I would prefer Jenifer Hudson to Beyonce. But I cannot say which version of "One Night Only" I like better. They are extremely good, both.
And the Oscar’s goes to…❤ the disco version rocks too, I’d love to hear beyonce sing this and not enunciate the last vowel so closed, it makes the disco sound modern and not free flowing.
That hair looks amazing ong Beyonce tho
When her brother said.... Effie... I need you.... it hit different....
Me encanta ambas versiones , ambas muy fiel a su estilo ❤
2024 ❤🐝
jennifer: we've got one night only lets go slow drink some champagne and chill
beyonce : we've got one night only lets go to the club dance it up then go back to my place LOL🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Perfeito
BOTH are great but i like Beyonce's version better ..Jennifer's voice is powerful ..Beyonce kept it stern but sweeter
Jennifer Hutson should sing Listen and watch her BLOW her away
