    If you want to be blown away by another "petite" songstress, check out Stephanie Mills! Particularly her performing "Home" live. Great reaction as always. Anita Baker is the epitome of a Songstress and an Icon. I remember getting the "Anita Baker" hairstyle back in my teens. Such great memories. And yes her music is timeless.

Her voice is incredible like a bass clarinet or oboe I could be wrong but definitely a musical instrument. I agree her voice is timeless, just like the songs are about love and commitment that are beyond the superficial and withstand the test of time. Anita sings with her soul.

    Fun fact: I’m almost certain that Michael Jordan would, while playing, would hit opponents with a few “Giving you the best that I got” when up close and personal to get in their heads!
    Also: singer Tamia would go on to tribute Anita Baker with this song. It was especially personal because Baker introduced Tami who would go on to be her husband Grant Hill and when the lyric says “I bet everything, on my wedding ring” Tamia flashed it and winked!

She is retired now (bummer), but I still listen to her. This is also the song my husband and I danced to at our wedding (I am African-American and he is Caucasian) Verse: "I bet everything, on my wedding ring." I love how much you appreciate her voice! It's untouchable. Thanks for the reaction and God bless:)

    Sade and Anita were contemporaneous (early to mid-80s breakthrough) - Sade was the name of the band but is also the name of the singer (Sade Adu). Your Love is King, Sweetest Taboo, Paradise etc. Toni B. came out in the 1990s (Love Should've Brought You Home Last Night from the movie Boomerang...since you like Babyface you should check out one of their duets like Give you my all). She was influenced by Anita. I'd love you to react to Anita's No one in the World. And I'm putting in a request again for Whitney live at the AMAs 1994.
