    Patti was getting screams of anticipation in the 80s and early 90s singing ONE note and entering. She was AMAZING. Still is.

      THAT IS HOW I FELT,
      UNTIL JEHOVAH GOD'S UNMERITED FAVOUR AND AMAZING GRACE, TOTALLY TRANSFORMED ME !!!
      I WAS LISTENING TO AN ALBUM CALLED
      "I'LL BE WITH YOU"
      BY THE REV. DARYL COLEY.....
      AS I LISTENED TO THE SONG "ROMANS 10";
      I WAS BAPTIZED BY THE SWEET HOLYGHOST....
      EVENTUALLY I INVITED CHRIST JESUS INTO MY HEART, MIND AND SOUL AS MY LORD AND PERSONAL SAVIOUR...
      NOW MY NAME IS WRITTEN IN HEAVEN......, PRAISE THE LORD !!!
      LUTHER VANDROSS HAS NEVER SANG A GOSPEL SONG.....
      AND WHERE IS HE NOW ???
      AND WHERE WILL YOU ALL SPEND ETERNITY ???
      REVELATIONS 20:11-15.
      LUKE 16:19-31.
      JOHN 14:1-6.
      I CHALLENGE YOU ALL TO LISTEN TO DARYL COLEY...,
      START WITH THESE 3 ALBUMS IN ANY ORDER....
      "BEYOND THE VIEL"
      "WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS"
      "I'LL BE WITH YOU"
      THANK YOU......
      SO SAD IS THE SOUL WHO DIES WITHOUT CHRIST JESUS !!!
      HOW IRONIC, LUTHER VANDROSS BOASTED THAT HE NEVER SANG IN CHURCH, YET AT HIS FUNERAL, ARETHA FRANKLIN SUNG
      "PRECIOUS LORD, TAKE MY HAND....."
      LUTHER SIR, I HOPE THAT FOR YOU, IT WAS NOT TOO LATE....

    for me (and I can speak for nobody else)...that was the best tribute to another performer that Ive ever seen. And ALL OF THEM have history with Smokey...so it was a very personal tribute. Gladys and Patti, go back to the "chitlun circuit' with Smokey in the 60s. And Smokey has mentored Luther, since he broke into the business. So, this was right on time. uh, Patti LaBelle?...you are one bad sista.

    Smokey Robinson was one of my Soul R&B faves back in the 60's right from the time he and the Miracles had their first hit with Shop Around while I was a Senior in H.S. After that they had one great song after another and I and my friends loved them to death. In something like 64 I and some friends saw a Motown show at the Regal Theater in Chicago in which they were the main group.

I actually enjoyed Patti's performance here! But the fact of the matter is that she completely ignored the melody of the song & belted her way through it with reckless abandon. As she's always tended to do during the majority of her live performances over the decades. I never disrespected or said I hated Patti because I'm a big fan of hers. I simply said that Gladys would have stayed truer to the melody. And I stand by that.

    So take a good look at my face
    You'll see my smile looks out of place
    If you look closer, it's easy to trace
    The tracks of my tears
    I need you, need you
    Since you left me if you see me with another girl
    Seeming like I'm having fun
    Although she may be cute
    She's just a substitute
    Because you're the permanent one
    So take a good look at my face
    You'll see my smile looks out of place
    If you look closer, it's easy to trace
    The tracks of my tears
    I need you, need you
    Outside I'm masquerading
    Inside my hope is fading
    Just a clown oh yeah
    Since you put me down
    My smile is my make up
    I wear since my break up with you
    So take a good look at my face
    You'll see my smile looks out of place
    If you look closer, it's easy to trace
    The tracks of my tears
