Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 Her last top 30 hit (not counting the re-release of The Star Spangled Banner, which peaked at #6). <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/m9EyEW6xPNM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ghfan89 Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) That was from when guest starred on ATWT before she made it big in 1984. There is a clearer version on the first page of this thread. Edited February 12, 2012 by ghfan89 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 Diane Sawyer's overdramatic intro is the most addictive part of that interview - I watched that part over and over. That interview is one of those things, right from the very start, when Whitney insists she'll never be fat, which you would assume was all scripted out long ahead of time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 It's weird that this video had a Judy Garland/Over The Rainbow theme. Whitney's life and downfall eerily resembles Judy's in a way. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/aA9mmz508Ro" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 Her Whitney was pretty darn funny and she did it as recently as last season in a guest appearance, but DW's is more "spot on". Whitney and Dionne sang together at Clive's party last year, and it was clear how smoke cost them their soaring sopranos. Cissy was always gospel and R&B so the effect smoke had on her voice translated better. Cissy is of course the soprano hitting those amazing notes on Aretha's "Ain't No Way" as she did for Whitney in their Merv appearance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) That's a very sad video. (Try It On My Own) I can see why some reviews felt that album was very defensive. I never knew she covered "You Light Up My Life." Edited February 12, 2012 by CarlD2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Believe it or not, this was the very first time I had ever heard of her, when I was seven years old (1996).

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 12, 2012 Members Share Posted February 12, 2012 So many jokes were made about that at the time. For obvious reasons. LOL! RuPaul called it "You Light Up My Pipe." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
