I love how Chaka always gives her friends who join her onstage to shine and have their own moments. I've never seen her grandstand, although she practically can outsing any of today's Divas and some of her contemporaries. Her duet with Ledisi (of the same song) is hot lava! Ella, Sassy, Aretha, Dionne, Chaka, Whitney, Mariah, Patti, Celine, Barba. Angels on Earth. Billie, Etta, Janis, Gladys, Natalie, Rachelle, Toni, Karen, Patty... This list goes on and on...
Hi i just wanna says somthing to this comment, just an opinion, that not because you can reach the highiest high note you are the greatest, for me its how plain and clean you deliever the song is the most important, i saw chaka's live perfomance here in youtube and most of them she's like drunk or something, sounds like forgeting the lyrics of her own song.. but anyway, all of the singers are great on there own genres.. fair enough.. heehee!
You can't hear anybody but Chaka when their in chorus! LOL!!! Chaka's stuff is hard to sing & MJB definitely found it out when they did that Sweet Thing duet together & Chaka backed off the bridge & let Mary embarrass herself!
eu amei esta canção. Esta canção e a melhor do tudas as canções quis eu procurei. i love this song. This song is the best of all the songs that i have found. Go the 90's!
Ok,Chaka & Gloria are the only ones here even worthy of singing this song. Both of them,I adore! Chrissy,well? Sory,when is the last time you made an album?
After watching the whole video I laughed for the longest this was funny.....They need to leave that song with Chaka Khan...I know it took a lot for her to listen to them mess up her song and do background for them..LOL!!!! Go Chaka Khan
Appalling! The only silver lining in this dark MESS is that it shows us how many miles Chaka is above any of these so-called 'divas'....tells it loud and clear. I don't know how the rest had the guts to face the audience.
Her voice is equal to the money scale of "Tina" (Chaka Khan) This women should have advanced so much into mainline music. She has a voice that will carry soul....
Chrissie Hynde delivered a decent vocal. Completely in her own style, I loved her interpretation. She wasn't trying to mimic Chaka, like Legions of other female vocalists. And BTW she wrote Private life...A big Grace Jones Track.
Yaaaasss for a beauty😱 contest...Sure Ya Right 👍 SHO NUFF N The Winner is Hands Down The Sexy Sweet Thing is Chaka! Chaka Khan! Go head 🤩Melly Mel Ain't No Body 💯
The producers must have told Chaka she won't get her check unless she lets these women sing with her. I cannot fathom Chaka voluntarily letting these four women (hacks) accompany her. This was downright painful.
it's really really funny when I see singers that are like between the age of 25-35 they try to sing songs from artists who are around 45-55 years old, and the older singers sound WAY BETTER then the youger singers and just blows them away. Chaka Kahn is 57 years old, so I know she doesn't have the singing pipes like she used to, but still she sounds better than everyone up their on stage tryin to sing with her.
I love both Chaka and Gloria Estefan alot (wasn't familiar with the other women). This performance sounded like a karaoke night out. The other ladies were not as into it as Chaka.
@kbdesigngirl - I agree with you there. I'd rather have heard the "power" of Chaka's voice on this one - cause she DOES have it !!! The others are good too, but not for this song.
i think when people sing chaka's song standing right next to her..its intimidating and they get nervous and not want to mess up, but then that makes them sound bad.
The other singers must have felt remarkably inadequate next to Chaka Khan! Guess they aren't "Every Woman!" It's something to strive for, but you canNOT fake it!
oh god they just killed that classic, and chaka is like amazing, and youve got the blonde who cna tsupport, the english one who sounds crap and then the one who cant hold her mic . what a mess chaka is amazing though
The Things A Legend Has To Put Up With!
A host of vocal talent blending their sounds together so an old school hit can be rivived!!
The way her voice seems to carry through the crowd=EPIC!!!!
Chaka is so beautiful and 10 times a better singer than anyone up there.
Chaka's pipes blow everyone else off the stage!! Daayum girl!!
chaka is simply killing them all, she is soooooooooooo perfect......marvellous... I like that half tone up and down in this song at the end...
I love how Chaka always gives her friends who join her onstage to shine and have their own moments. I've never seen her grandstand, although she practically can outsing any of today's Divas and some of her contemporaries. Her duet with Ledisi (of the same song) is hot lava!
Ella, Sassy, Aretha, Dionne, Chaka, Whitney, Mariah, Patti, Celine, Barba.
Angels on Earth.
Billie, Etta, Janis, Gladys, Natalie, Rachelle, Toni, Karen, Patty...
This list goes on and on...
It's, not that they can't sing, its just a different and more powerful type of singing that their voice is not accustomed.
Hi i just wanna says somthing to this comment, just an opinion, that not because you can reach the highiest high note you are the greatest, for me its how plain and clean you deliever the song is the most important, i saw chaka's live perfomance here in youtube and most of them she's like drunk or something, sounds like forgeting the lyrics of her own song.. but anyway, all of the singers are great on there own genres.. fair enough.. heehee!
just because they can sing doesnt mean they can do this song Chaka. they need a little soul
You can't hear anybody but Chaka when their in chorus! LOL!!! Chaka's stuff is hard to sing & MJB definitely found it out when they did that Sweet Thing duet together & Chaka backed off the bridge & let Mary embarrass herself!
...THIS IS EXACTLY WHY CHAKA IS A SOLO ACT (not counting her backup singers)
From left to right... Chrissie Hynde, Gloria Estefan, Chaka Khan, Lee Ann Womack, Michelle Branch. These woman are amazing!

Gloria and Chaka the best...
Appalling! The only silver lining in this dark MESS is that it shows us how many miles Chaka is above any of these so-called 'divas'....tells it loud and clear. I don't know how the rest had the guts to face the audience.
Man those girls have Nothin on chaka they look like they haven trouble singing the song cause they dont have that powerful voice like chaka

PRECIOSAS VOCES DEL BELLO RAMILLETE DE FRAGANCIA DIVINA Y EL ENCANTO FEMENINO QUE NOS TRASLADA AL PARAISO DIVINO

@ArnieStevenson Yeah. I saw her interviewed once (pre-crack days) And she was really giving Chaka her props for having an amazing STRONG voice.
I love ALL the DIVA!
The best ,the best!
I love Chaka... espesially Thcka than a snicka!!!

TOTALLY agree with you!!!!
Her voice is equal to the money scale of "Tina" (Chaka Khan) This women should have advanced so much into mainline music. She has a voice that will carry soul....
Chaka Khan is amazing!!!
Chrissie Hynde delivered a decent vocal. Completely in her own style, I loved her interpretation. She wasn't trying to mimic Chaka, like Legions of other female vocalists. And BTW she wrote Private life...A big Grace Jones Track.
MARAVILHOSO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ConleyHunt How in the world can you put Gloria Estefan in the category with Chaka Khan?????
There was a woman at one time that song this song like Chaka Khan and made it a hit again. That was the Whitney Houston when she had the "Voice".
don t miss fantasia vh1 reality show "fantasia for real" that airs on vh1 jan11
oh they want to they can't!!! Chaka Kahn is a hard act to follow and you have got to have the real goods!!!! in order to sing with her!!!!
CHAKA forever!!!

🔔Wrong answer!!!💯
Yaaaasss for a beauty😱 contest...Sure Ya Right 👍 SHO NUFF N The Winner is Hands Down The Sexy Sweet Thing is Chaka! Chaka Khan! Go head 🤩Melly Mel Ain't No Body 💯
lollolololololololoolol whewwww lololoolol thank God for Chaka
Gloria Estefan is wonderful in this video. Chaka Khan too... I don't know who is the another singers...
The producers must have told Chaka she won't get her check unless she lets these women sing with her. I cannot fathom Chaka voluntarily letting these four women (hacks) accompany her. This was downright painful.
Ya act like it's a competition. For some ya it is . Goo all of them, they all did great in their unique way.
it's really really funny when I see singers that are like between the age of 25-35 they try to sing songs from artists who are around 45-55 years old, and the older singers sound WAY BETTER then the youger singers and just blows them away. Chaka Kahn is 57 years old, so I know she doesn't have the singing pipes like she used to, but still she sounds better than everyone up their on stage tryin to sing with her.
'The best version'?? You're havin' a laugh.
...THIS IS EXACTLY WHY CHAKA IS A SOLO ACT (not counting her backup singers)
chaka rules!!!
None of these women should be on stage with Chaka for this tune. Gots to be funky!!!
@jamboy3 Chaka Blows them away & would probably do the same to any other female vocalist out there!
wow....I don't know how Chaka restrained herself from jumping in while the others were singing to save the song!
I love both Chaka and Gloria Estefan alot (wasn't familiar with the other women). This performance sounded like a karaoke night out. The other ladies were not as into it as Chaka.
these four ladies should ot be there....oh gosh...what a disaster.....i want whitney
@kbdesigngirl - I agree with you there. I'd rather have heard the "power" of Chaka's voice on this one - cause she DOES have it !!! The others are good too, but not for this song.
Just listen to Whitney's and Chaka divas 99 take on this. Whitney's involved need I say more
Omg.. These singers should not be breathing the same air as the legendary Chaka Khan!
Even her back-up singers are better. Sheeshhh..
Oh my God...LOL. These poor women had to sing with one of the Best RB Singers in History...haha. (oh well....sigh, they tried).
Gloria is holding her own....but Chaka is blowing all those grrls outathewata
@johnriii you hit it on the spot, chaka backups are just the same as Luther's singers was, bad MF's that can do as Chaka says :tearing it up !" lol
@Doromir I agree with you, somebody
need to be Chaka Khan's back up singers, instead up in the front.
Chaka Khan should have been tge only person there
@JamzusMaximus Chaka Khan, Gloria Estefan, Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders to the left of Gloria. Don't know who the ones on the right are.
@CDJINT i think they should have jjust did the background.
i can only hear chaka - its her song this my woman power song sung by chaka
As wonderful as Gloria Estefan is, she didn't not make the cut 4 this one!!! Still Love her!!
@dancer141106 The orginator is Chaka Khan!
I have to think, people that dislike this just had to have hit the wrong button.
@wildnites558 your comment was beautiful. Thank you!
i think when people sing chaka's song standing right next to her..its intimidating and they get nervous and not want to mess up, but then that makes them sound bad.
@999xander999 the blond one is leann womack
@999xander999 the other one is michelle branch
For some reason whenever I hear this song it makes me think of the Card Captor Sakura movie, the sealed card one.
I like this song, it's very snazzy.
Ashita E no Melody? I can totally see why!
The other singers must have felt remarkably inadequate next to Chaka Khan! Guess they aren't "Every Woman!" It's something to strive for, but you canNOT fake it!
It was wonderful seeing this done with Chaka, Prince, Stevie Wonder and Yolanda Adams, Great energy!
Chaka sobrada pero Lee Ann Womack está sorprendente!
@MrCataracts That is Gloria Estefan!
They should have let Chaka finish this song....LOVE HER!!
Everybody else was struggling to sing it! :(
Haha Chaka eats them alive! Long live raw talent!
Who are all of Chaka's guest singers? I recognise Gloria Esteban, the others i don't know... any help?
THOSE BOZANGAS!!!! OMG!
oh god they just killed that classic, and chaka is like amazing, and youve got the blonde who cna tsupport, the english one who sounds crap and then the one who cant hold her mic . what a mess chaka is amazing though
