My dad don't hesitate to tell us we were conceived off this music. Anita baker is one of thr queen controlto. Her along with Toni Braxton, lalah hathaway queens. She has some of the greatest music of all time. We be grooving to Mrs Anita at the BBQs lol
A voice I could never live without. I was taken to an Anita Baker concert when I was 6 & she was mesmerizing & I saw her again a few years ago in Miami & she was so captivating, crowd called for an encore - my bestie & I were in tears watching & the band was DYNAMIC. Thank you for showing love to Ms. Baker 💙🥰
Anita Baker.....Masterclass! That's all! Pay attention all you young female R & B singers of today.....no need to show your body when you can blow like that!
I love her so much!! ❣️❣️❣️ Telling my age, but I was at this concert at Constitution Hall in Washington, DC. Will never forget it. It was recorded live on VHS video. She absolutely KILLED this show and watching it never gets old.
Remembering when this one hit in the ‘80’s, Anita kinda took the scene by storm with her style & power, no extra flash, dance troops or light shows. It was all in her vocal artistry, & production of band grooves & music arrangements. Spike Lee did direct one of her videos, No One in the World, which was a throwback to the old days of the Apollo Theater in Harlem. A cool collab you might enjoy from a live Kenny Loggins concert in the Redwoods, is a song called Love Will Follow, that features beautiful R&B singer, Shanice. Cool band, vocal blend & quality audio visual production.
So down to earth. Saw her in 2018 and she asked the audience if they liked her dress. After everyone clapped, she said good, cause it’s the same dress she would be wearing throughout the entire night! She also told us her shoes would be coming off in about 20 minutes…and they did! LOL
My favourite singer across both genders, and she always chose a banging band to back up those superior vocals. By the way, that grooving bassist is Gerald Albright whose main instrument is sax.
Anita is far better than Beyoncé on this song, Anita wrote it, made it famous and is still singing it with incredible vocals at 64. Anita Baker is a living legend, her tone is amazing and unmatched. Soon as she opens her mouth know it is Anita singing.
For me, one of the most impressive thing about this version was that she did this song right after "Watch Your Step" which is a... I guess mid to fast tempo song. It was a high energy song and she dance about a minute on the stage as well. She seems to have less than 10 seconds break before starting this performance. And she still delivered this, in my opinion, the best version of this song. She is one of the greatest of all time, ever.
It’s a stylistic thing but she tricks you into believing the song is lower than it is because she makes her voice sound heavier.. all it takes is for you to try to sing it where she did and u will know lol
Appreciate you taking the time to react to this great song. While I understand pausing and commentary is necessary, the constant pausing and talking every other bar is a bit too much. Couldn't finish.
One of the greatest vocalists ever! 🔥🔥🔥
Anita is my girl! One of the best vocalists ever.
Anita Baker is a Living Legend...🔥🔥🔥🔥
She is literally my favorite artist I love her voice her humility vulnerability and movement when she sings !!! Her voice is just magical!!!

Have you seen videos of Aretha performing in the 70s? The point is whatever a woman wears is completely irrelevant to her singing talent.
@@ValenciaLydia I could not disagree more....but....to each their own.
The first ding that made me fall n I’ve been in love and my favorite female artist ever since 💪🏾🙏🏾❤️

Why are y'all comparing 2 different things? A vocalists vs a performer.
Anita is far better than her period!
Fact that her talking voice complements her singing voice is 🔥
Yesssss!!!! I absolutely love her speaking voice!! 😍❣️😍❣️
My dad used to play Anita Baker on vinyl when I was a kid all the time. She's my parents' favorite lol.
"One Night of Rapture" an Iconic Concert Film in R&B.
Clark Sisters singing background. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Omg can you react to Yoland Adam's tribute to Anita and Yolanda Adams and John Legend performing Glory at the white house
🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction!
💜
14 interruptions = Total Groove Killer.
You should check out Beyonce "Sweet Dreams Medley" from the I Am Yours concert. She covered this song during that medley.
Second post: but did u already react to “your girl” (Beyoncé) singing this in concert when she was sick? I think it was Vegas
Appreciate you taking the time to react to this great song. While I understand pausing and commentary is necessary, the constant pausing and talking every other bar is a bit too much. Couldn't finish.
She wanted to turn around and twerk so bad!! She was jamming!! I love when artist LOVE their own songs
Can’t watch your videos, you interrupt too much
I feel the same way. Anita's singing voice is just the way she sings naturally. But, he made too many interruptions.
talk to much ....
