So who has come here from The Voice USA 2021 ??? I recognised her voice str8 away, the judges really didn't know who she was nor did the audience even when she gave her name - tragic !! One of the finest female voices of all time imo, up there with Whitney for sure!! Just like Eric Benet, two stunning vocalists that deserve to be absolutely mega, but for some reason are successful but didn't go supersonic!! I hope this reignites her career, I can't wait to see what she brings as this series progresses :) #gowendy
I totally agree. I was shocked when Kelly and John didn't recognize her name and voice. That single had a video attached and I seen it on BET's Video Soul. Fell in love with it instantly. Blake has another great chance of winning this season with her on his team.
She should go very far on the voice I recognized her name and remembered how great this song was back then. If she does not win this season then these “coaches” can’t recognize a truly gifted singer. The people need to vote,vote,vote
@@barbarab6609 I believe "Come on in out of the rain" released in 1992. I had just gotten out of the Army after coming back from Desert Storm. I remember that time in my life vividly.
Wendy Moten should have been a bigger star . I guess in the 90’s there were too much competition. Grunge music, girl groups, plus there was Whitney, Mariah, Celine !! 90’s was crazy good
Don't forget Toni Braxton, Janet Jackson, En Vouge, TLC, Monica, Brandy, Pebbles, Karyn White, Mary J Blige, SWV, Xscape, Faith Evans, Deborah Cox, Chante Moore, CeCe Winans, Tamia, and others... Yes too much competition and bless the 1990s....🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
@@truthhurtz8517 Except for Janet Jackson and far away Toni Braxton. None of those you named reached the level of Mariah, Céline or Whitney. We are talking that Wendy could have reached that level. Between Wendy and half of those girls like Pebbles or Chante More or CeCe there's not much difference in artist careers.
@@truthhurtz8517 Have we ever looked at it from the perspective that Wendy Moten and Cindy Mizzele just live Lisa Fischer didn't want the limelight and all the shenanigans that went on behind the scenes in the industry in that era?
She was blackballed....Her vocals are similar to one of the biggest female singers (Boss) in the last 35 years. I can't say who blackballed her but you can read between the lines.
She and her song was and still very famous in my country which is the Philippines. A lot of Filipinos love her song. I used to sing this song all the time every time I will join singing contest. She is such an inspiration.
Her voice is unapproachable. Her facial inflections remind me of Natalie Cole, so perfect. I just love this performer, Tonight I was fortunate enough to bid on a show where my company will do sound for her if we win the bid. Fingers crossed! I have a special silver microphone just waiting for her. Love this Wendy
Wendy came out of Memphis in 1993; she had two good-sized singles and that was about it. She might have been thought a second-rate Whitney, and she might not have had Clive Davis and his hitmaking prowess behind her, but, mercy, this is so good!
There is nothing 2nd rate abour her. People are in their feelings and won't admit that her voice was more powerful than Whitney's and with a much bigger range.
@@earscribechurchmusic1192 Funny how EVERY example given of a mezzo-soprano on line lists WHITNEY as a mezzo. Bottom line is that Wendy has the bigger voice.
After all this time, I still get chills when I listen to Wendy sing "Come in From the Rain". Her vocal range never ceases to amaze me, and even her highest notes are sweetly sung, not screamed out! You rock Wendy!
Here in 2021 it's a worldwind of a world we are in at this time, but why this young lady isn't done in the spotlight beats me,you got my vote Wendy Moten 💛pure gold
This was the first time I heard of Wendy Moten and loved her voice ever since! Wishing her all the best on this season of The Voice US. She deserves every success!
I am so proud to say that I bought this song when it first came out back in the 90's and I STILL HAVE MY CASSETTE TAPE. I use to play it to death. Odd but I never realized how much she sounds like a combination of Whitney Houston and CeCe Winans (looks a little like CeCe in this video too). Sounding so much like both of them may have hindered her success. Here's wishing you the best of luck on The Voice Wendy! We need more ballad singers and a little less twerking singers.
At first I thought it was Whitney Houston when I heard the bridge, I came running here only to find a perfect voice by Wendy Moten! Ooh wow! #BlackLivesMatter.
Singing this live with that smoke all around her will have dried her vocal folds up to a crisp. You can see her swallowing all the way through to get some moisture. She still sounds bloody amazing. What a voice
WOW! Ok, I thought she had been a backup singer but this is straight up gorgeous front and center performing. I hope she blows The Voice's coaches hair back 😅 with some full on Aretha or Celine or somethin like Al Green's Stay Together! Or Miss Celies Blues from Colour Purple
I remember thinking she fell off the radar BECAUSE the powers that be in music didn’t want competition for Whitney. She was every bit as good. So glad she’s making a comeback.

And they say people didn't sing live on totp. What a masterpiece of a song. And what a live vocal.
Very popular song in Philippines 🇵🇭

100% truth! This was the title track and a hit song from her first album back in 1994; her voice back then and now is phenomenal 😊
Indeed. This song is my favorite song of all time!
She should go very far on the voice I recognized her name and remembered how great this song was back then. If she does not win this season then these “coaches” can’t recognize a truly gifted singer. The people need to vote,vote,vote

reached number 8 the same week Toni Braxton was at number 2 with Breathe Again - good chart times
Aww Well Said that ❤

My mum born in the Philippines
Gusto ko sana i try pero di ko kaya, galing ni Wendy ❤
Who are the numpties that gave this a thumbs down??
One of the greatest vocalists this planet has ever seen!!
So effortless. Wonder why she didn't make it that big in showbiz.
Whiney Houston and Clive Davis.
Yep Clive Davis thought she would be bigger than Whitney and black balled her. This song was #1 overseas
@@popfeske3612 THE TRUTH.
That was a hell of a live perrformance!
Please vote for her Voice US 2021, show your love!
I came her because I just found out about her on the voice. Now she has me wiping tears away at 2 am. I love Wendy !!
What a lovely song. As far as I'm concerned, it'a true 'forgotten classic'.
Hope she can sing this song at Voice..
Agree, this song so powerful and its popular in Philippines. We love to belt this song
She reminds me of Whitney. Great singer.

One of the best singers that i heard in my life
She has an incredible voice....simply perfect.

I like her voice more than Whitney's.
Better than Whitney in my opinion.
i love her and whitney . both of them, wendy is a soprano and whitney is a mezzo, but both if them are so good

Effortless and flawless singing of "coming in and out of the rain". Love it.

For sure, coz this is the original version of the song.

It was all live vocals on top of the pops 1991-95 ish
Amazing voice, everlasting song
December 2021 and this song still sounds magical
alright for not lip syncing! She is brilliant!

This never came out on cassette, thats not true
@@akudamatada1 The album with this song was definitely on Cassette I own it
Amazing
Great Song and Singer !
3:25 kinda sounded like whitney :O
you right!
It’s a shame she never got more popular. Her voice was incredible. I loved this song when it came out.
It’s still incredible. Check her out on the voice.
Looooooooooooovely voice! Lovely song! Thank you!
This needs more views and likes.
At first I thought it was Whitney Houston when I heard the bridge, I came running here only to find a perfect voice by Wendy Moten! Ooh wow! #BlackLivesMatter.
Iba tlaga ang orinal....
Boses palang yari na sila
One's of the best songs from the nineties...amazing vocals...absolutely love it x
Wow, a classic. Definitely, remember this song. Totally remind me Cece Winans. this is your time Wendy long overdue.
Singing this live with that smoke all around her will have dried her vocal folds up to a crisp. You can see her swallowing all the way through to get some moisture. She still sounds bloody amazing. What a voice
what a voice
I hope she's going to make it big this time! I really like her voice.
Brings me back to my childhood years❤
Such a great voice. Unreal how her live performance is just as great as the recorded... that exemplifies a true artist...
Great singer and song.class.
Thanks for the memories mymusic.......One of the Classic songs of all time....
...That she shared her most incredible, precious & melodic gift of song...with us...
Didn’t known about Wendy soon as I heard this song wow I love ❤❤
Still kicking but in Nashville,. Keep supporting her!
my god what power, i knew it then when nobody gave her a second look because of one reason back in the 90's......her name was Whitney Houston.
I'm from Memphis myself. Lovvvve Wendy Moten!
Wonderful! Makes it look so effortless. Thanks for capturing
Powerful ballad. Love it.
Magnificent voice! 🙌
She's awesome!
Love this song
Sad that while Wendy's voice is still incredible..... It still won't be as good as this performance. Makes me truly sad to have just discovered her!
It's such a shame honestly she would've made amazing songs....i love that mysteriousness behind her
She sang this a few times on Facebook last year, and she sounded even better! Same key, fuller tone. I was reeling with shock, lol.
Her voice actually sounds better
Brilliantly sung by Wendy.
Beautiful!
She reminds me so much of whitney dare i say it. Great performance!
I hope she sings this in the Finals. Her own song.
I wish she would have!!! But then people would unfortunately say even more how unfair it was that she was in the competition
I LOVE THAT AUTHENTIC VOICE STYLE OF HERS AT 1:58, 2:03
When it was first released😜
Great talented vocal gift!
WOW! Ok, I thought she had been a backup singer but this is straight up gorgeous front and center performing. I hope she blows The Voice's coaches hair back 😅 with some full on Aretha or Celine or somethin like Al Green's Stay Together! Or Miss Celies Blues from Colour Purple
who else is waiting for her to sing this in the voice? 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏼♂️🙋🏽♂️🙋🏾♂️🙋🏿♂️
FANTASTICA ESSA CANTORA !! NOSSA!! E QUE VOCAL !MEU DEUSSSSS
Fabulous 😆
I wanted to marry her surely our children will have a golden voice ! Love it
great vocal, classy lady, love her.
I remember thinking she fell off the radar BECAUSE the powers that be in music didn’t want competition for Whitney. She was every bit as good. So glad she’s making a comeback.
No!! She wasn't or is better than the late Whitney! Whitney was in another level!!
excellent
What amazing voice 😍😍very rare..
Just brilliant
Damn what a voice!
