Babyface writing abilities have always been top notch, but Toni Braxton showed this night that she was a STAR. She came out commanding the stage and the attention of everyone in the room. The more I research that era of music and the 90’s the more I realize Toni is a living legend. Perhaps thee most underrated of them all during that era. She wasn’t a POP star she was pure R&B and her legacy will never be touched. Toni Looked, Sounded, and Performed excellently here 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I think I have to disagree just a bit with you about Toni being pure R&B, “Un-Break My Heart” clearly crossed her over into the pop realm. Nevertheless I do share your enthusiasm on her legendary contribution to black music, without question!
No not yet. The soundtrack had End of the Road that followed the release of this song. It wasn’t til Beaty Again came that people paid more attention even though she had hits on that debut album. Then her second album with “You’re Makin’ Me High” just got everyone to realize she had it all. …. Then Unbreak My Heart came lol
@@fredajohnson506 I'm not sure what you're talking.about. I remember the headlines the day after this Arsenio show aired, it was all about Toni. The world pressured LaFace to hurry and drop the album because we wanted more of the girl who sang the songs from the Boomerang soundtrack. Her 1st album was a record breaker. By the time her second album dropped, She was already tops.
I just watched the new Arsenio hall show with Babyface and Toni. She said this was her very first performance on live tv had only performed in church. Wouldnt have never known that.
I can imagine Toni's parents and sisters and brother at home watching her debut....Toni and Face are like H 2 and O! Incomparable chemistry and performance!
OMG the song....the hair cut .....the vocals.....Toni....face.....the last true essence of the innocence of REAL R&B music thank goodness for the Arsenio Hall show archives
@@kolisionn i followed them. i dont call that chemistry. I see toni is always trying to be seductive and babyface is always trying to appear straight. Ive seen toni and her ex husband together and that was chemistry. And when i saw her in the video with shemar moore, they had chemistry. She also had chemistry with trey songz.
Ms LadyLibra83 yes, their chemistry is powerful. That was a fan ya self moment! I’d love to see them do a new album. Worth the money to see them in concert.
Still LOVING THIS May 12,2020🥰. I especially love 2:01when BABYFACE pulls Toni to him. That should have been MEEEEEE!!!!! Babyface...Oh my goodness 💕💕🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
THROWBACK !!! This was and still is da JAM !!! Anything Babyface creates is a HIT and Toni lookin FAB then and sounds FAB just like she still does TODAY !!! :)
lol.. I say this because I spent a LOT of time focused on this song in my DJ'ing and singing days..... and this Arsenio performance is TOTALLY true to the studio version. I love it because of that.
Now this is the Toni that I fell in love with!!..i had forgot all about how good she sounds when she actually sings, instead of all that mumbling, sex kitten stuff she does these days.
Chemistry from day one, between Toni Edmonds **I mean Braxton** and Babyface... Toni kept on pulling her dress down lol, but she was, is and will forever be gorgeous. Wake up Face
Lol,, I'd hate to be in his shoes at the moment. I mean he just got hitched and then there's miss Braxton. Drama!!! I like that you say he knows what's up lol, he better
I remember watching this when it 1st aired..Never would have imagined she had a bratty lil sister name Tamar at home watching..😅😅😅😅 ❤Toni Braxton 4Life..
Toni Braxton was the finest thing on this planet right about then! Her look was perfect yo...
YEP!!!!💯💯💯
No way this was her first time!? A damn natural ! Look at her ! Her facial expressions! Toni Braxton we love you!
She had no draws on she said
@@NorthPhilly-zr7xc and how does that relate to her being a natural despite it being her first performance 🤨🙄?
@@smokeyfan it's just a joke
@@NorthPhilly-zr7xc oh...my bad 👌
Yesssss
For this to be Toni's first time performing on tv, she killed it like a professional!!! I looooove my Toni Braxton!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾😊😄😍
Slayyyyyed
Yes she did that!
Antonia Michele Braxton, Born October 7,1968 In Severn,MD. She was 24 here.
@@plawson8577 Sir her name is just Toni. Idk where u got Antonia from lol
@@NiqueTheSneak1 It’s her Government Name. But yeah, She’s Still Toni. I had a crush on her when I was 10. Back during 92-93.
This is why we need shows like The Arsenio Hall Show...
True…problem is people don’t watch cable tv as much anymore. Streaming is more popular fortunately/unfortunately.

Unbreak My Heart you think was pop? 😂😂😂
And to think her mother was trying to force her to stay with her boring sisters.
@@-domonique-3968It was labeled pop. That Diane Warren ballad did give Toni mainstream appeal.
Don't get no better than these two. Damn, Toni wearing that dress. Oh, and that band is killing it.🔥🔥🔥🔥
She looks amazing.....
This was Toni Braxton's introduction to the world on this song and first live televised performance
This wasn't actually her first TV performance she performed with her sisters 2 years prior "The Good Life"
@@joranmikel7339 but this was her performance as TONI BRAXTON!!!
They always keep it classy yet sexy. What a great duo. Two beautifully attractive people 🔥
This was the night the world fell in love with Toni
That's right who couldn't love someone like her she got voice looks as well then she has sweet person

@@sewcraftylion I think you responded to the wrong person.
@@joelgarcia3907 I fell in love with Toni after hearing this song. Didn’t even see the performance here. I was only 12 and couldn’t watch Arsenio.
I guess I'm not the only one who came straight from the TV movie!
nope lls
me too
+David Richardson lol,,,,,,yes
+David Richardson Nope!! LOL!!
lol!
if me and my future bae don't have this chemistry, i don't want him😭
Yes that's important but frist for me spritual connection
Chi’le, tell that WHOLE TRUTH! Sheesh🥰👠💋💃
They were never a couple
And the award for best chemistry ever....Boom!!
They need to stop all that teasing just get together
@@fredajohnson506 Nah lol I love the pureness in their energy!
I just watched the new Arsenio hall show with Babyface and Toni. She said this was her very first performance on live tv had only performed in church. Wouldnt have never known that.

That growl at 1:04 Toni is everything😍 & Babyface is so adorable
I listen to this song atleast 10x 's a day. They dont make music like this anymore!
You and me both! I own the remixes too 😀
No they do not

+Kashia Versae me toooooooooooo

+Kashia Versae lol me too hahah
+Kashia Versae lol i did the same thing

Lifetime choose a really good character to play babyface. They legit look alike
OMG the song....the hair cut .....the vocals.....Toni....face.....the last true essence of the innocence of REAL R&B music thank goodness for the Arsenio Hall show archives
They are unstoppable musically together, Babyface and Toni Braxton are the truth
surprised toni and face never got together.... seemed like they had the greatest chemistry
Babyface said he looks at her as a sister she did admit she had a crush on him
What chemistry?
@@ertfgghhhh chemistry they had throughout the years if you followed them
@@kolisionn i followed them. i dont call that chemistry. I see toni is always trying to be seductive and babyface is always trying to appear straight. Ive seen toni and her ex husband together and that was chemistry. And when i saw her in the video with shemar moore, they had chemistry. She also had chemistry with trey songz.
Because babyface likes light skin mixed looking women.
You can't even tell that this was her performance. Talk about the IT factor ! Love this.
Toni was setting that stage on r&b fire 🔥
The class in this song, the chemistry. The vocals this entire song is better than all the millennial songs made combined into one.
Toni is and always will be beautiful. They are both fantastic and awesome. The best pairing ever.
That bass line was mind blowing! Awesome performance!
Bring back the 90s !!!!
Pleeeaaaseee!!!
@@larhondaburchett3271 Amen.... Today's music is horrible...
He's 1 of the best live performers. He can literally do a concert by himself with all the # 1's he's written!
That Would Have Been A Real POWER COUPLE 💯🎶🎤💙
Naw baby face too gay
I love the way he goes around her pulls her in. They are great together. And by themselves! Another perfect blend.
I absolutely ❤ the 2:02 mark when BabyFace pulls Toni into him SO SEXY n i remember getting Toni's haircut back then i luv them BOTH 😍😘
Ms LadyLibra83 yes, their chemistry is powerful. That was a fan ya self moment! I’d love to see them do a new album. Worth the money to see them in concert.

Damn that chemistry It’s like they were in love with each other for real legends
greatest songwriter of all time in my opinion
The 90s was such a great time!!
I was a friend's house watching this very episode, I was a fan of hers ever since and have loved Babyface since he was a member of the Deele.
I love how he was making sure she was comfortable and getting seen the whole time. They are great together.
This chemistry is epic . I was born in 89 & now I can't wait 4 the new release . I'm hooked!
Good music is forever deceased...the 90's was the ish😮🤦🏾♀️‼️
They were meant to be. They both have it coming. Amazing it could have been the other way around. Love there sweet voice.
This was her start, she really changed the seen for a while back then, a different sound strong and deep with soul. Love Toni and Face.
Man, I love living in this time. I came here after seeing this on lifetime. And right at my finger tips, I pulled up the actual footage.
So I'm not the only one who came straight to RUclips to find this performance. Lol. Loved it
