You should definitely check out Stephanie Mills singing "Home " Live at the Apollo. This performance was definitely one of the best live vocal performances ever.

This was Dorothy's last song from the musical THE WIZ.(1975) She sings this right before she clicks her heels 3 times and returns home. Breathe taking!

The dynamic Stephanie Mills. Check out her Live version of this song at the Apollo, the audience was captivated, so was I & so will you ...also check out " Something in the way" "I feel good all over" "Secret Lady" " Comfort of a man".

Stephanie Mills played Dorothy in the original 1975 Broadway musical The Wiz. I remember seeing her as a kid in the Wiz in the early 80's in WashingtonD.C. at Constitution Hall. I was mesmerized! She is reminiscing about playing Dorothy when she was a kid and her cast mates/friends that have passed away. She has a plethora of hits!I would suggest you react to "Sweet Sensation", "Feel the Fire" w/Teddy Pendergrass, "Never Knew Love Like This Before", "I Feel Good All Over" and "Comfort of a Man", to name a few. Tfs!

I remember being in the Apollo when she sang this way back when I was too damn young to be there lol Sinbad was hosting it. My father was a big time drug dealer back then. We had box seats anytime someone came out who was worth listening to. I remember they made Barry Gordy move during the MoTown 25th anniversary show because my father and Guy Fischer wanted better seats smh 😂 it was a flex 💪🏽 that’s all. But I remember when she left off stage people were chanting her name and rooting non stop unlike anything I’ve ever heard or seen before in my life!

If you think this is amazing, you guys should react to her live version (at the Apollo). This one looks watered down by comparison! She's one of the few singers who sounds even better live than she does on the record. Another classic gem of hers is "I Feel Good All Over".
