When she's singing slow R&B and jazz, she's in her element of music. Pop is Diana's element. Had Mary reinvented herself in the 70's with this type of singing, she probably would have been a more successful contemporary of Nancy Wilson, Sarah Vaughn, Ethel Waters, etc.
Love Ms. Wilson's "smokey" alto rendition of this beautiful classic. I love her pursuit of "life-long" learning......way to go! Always loved Donny & Marie....even as a kid. Great brother-sister talent.
What a great performance! Such a pity that Mary's solo recording career never took off, she had a great voice. So sad to hear of her passing today. Thanks for posting this. Mary with Donny & Marie is iconic!
Watching this interview makes me so sad, now that Mary is gone and we never had the opportunity to go see these divas perform one last We have and will always love you Rest In Peace Mary ❤️
I had the pleasure to meet Mary briefly on the tour in England that she makes reference to in this interview. She was so amazing and down to earth. A true legend.
I met Mary myself in Texas in 1984; at 40 years old she was stunningly gorgeous, and, as you said, down to earth, friendly and chatty. She autographed my "More Hits By The Supremes" album and gave me a little peck on the cheek. Wonderful lady!
It's so great to hear Mary Wilson sing lead. Shame that she didn't get to do so when the Supremes were having all their hits. Donny & Marie sound great as the backup "Supremes" too! The three of them should have gone out on the road -- they sounded great together. May she rest in peace.
I think Mary lived in a dream world, concerning her relationship with Diana after the "Dreamgirl" book. When you expose all those things about a person, it alters the relationship. Diana was a real piece of work when she was in the group, bar none, but some things are better left unsaid.
I always thought the same thing. At some point she made a choice that she would have to live with. I also wonder how relevant the supremes would have been without Diana’s solo success.
Mary was so beautiful and she had a beautiful soulful voice it's too bad Diana treated her badly I love me some Diana Ross but she was wrong how she treated Mary
Close is more than some of us 😂 she should have went into jazz and Flo could have done some disco or Philly International or Stax she would have done well
Sorry Mary but that cold look Donnie gave you says "He doesn't believe you" ! You made it about "Money", whereas Diana made it about the "Fans". Donnie knows you just contradicted yourself from his question. His look says loud and clear that "You're a flip flopping liar girlfriend" 🤔
❤ we miss you Mary Wilson
You are the heart of me, early morning love, He my man, love mary on lead on those songs
When Mary sings in her own key and register you can’t stop her. Fantastic!

@@mikeharris468 she sounds better with jazz anyway
I never, imagine, her being so nice.i always her the problem, between, her and Diana, I all ways thought it was Mary
This was a very inspirational interview! I salute Mary , Donny and Marie.
Wonderful !! Way to go Marie and Donny singing with Mary Wilson!

Beautiful Mary Wilson. I love the chemistry of the Supremes.

That's a very nice version of this song.
Aubrey I love Mary WIlson's energy in this version!
Miss Mary Wilson a great voice !love Mary
Wow, beautiful voice!
I absolutely love it!!!!!!!!
I’ve never seen this before. She was a singer for real. Not going to compare her to Diana Ross. Fate has a strange sense of humor
I'm thinking Whitney Houston sang alot of classics. This is so pretty song by a beautiful woman. Love you Mary RIP
Listening.to.Mary.Wilson.sing.this.song.tells.me.tells.me.that.Berry.Gordy.could.have.done.more.for.her,and.Florence.Ballard.and.Florence.Ballard..What.a.shame.
Mary has nice voices
I love the way she sings Come See About Me
Excellent

She was a Pisces ♓ in a dream world.

wow levi would be proud rip
SANG Mary!!
RIP. What a Supreme Lady. She actually has a nice voice kinda like Gladys
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
❤😇
Great.. More emotion than the one by Whitney. More touching.
Mary was so beautiful and she had a beautiful soulful voice it's too bad Diana treated her badly I love me some Diana Ross but she was wrong how she treated Mary
Nice legs Mary. RIP

Mary's talent is close but not quite there as a lead singer.
Close is more than some of us 😂 she should have went into jazz and Flo could have done some disco or Philly International or Stax she would have done well
She has a better voice than Diana Ross.
