[@patricemariegirl]

I love Jennifer she such a good person and wonderful singer.....she makes my little hairs stand up and I just wanna hear her voice over and over gives me so much strength!!

[@chamellearthur8322]

Every time she sings no matter what it is..She makes it look effort less and easy #MAGNIFICENT

[@jb2736]

I love Jennifer's voice, when she sings this song its stirs so much emotion with in me. She's just phenomenal. 💘

[@DamonesIsLegend]

My GOD!!! Jennifer SLAYED that song. I'm not going to compare her version to Fantasia's or anyone who's done it before. Jennifer stands alone. As do they. But this version is full of so much RAW and REAL emotion. When she delivered the line about her sister, my hurt heart for and with her. Bravo Jen! BRAVO!!

[@1800MyMusic]

Work, Jen, WORK. An amazing vocalist, and an outstanding human being.

[@palmisciano47]

im a guy and she brings a tear to MY eye's , just the power (heart and soul) she puts in her music.....is amazing

[@SERENITYMIND1]

That was an incredible performance. She needs to record this one. really.

[@NewHopeRichieRich]

Watch this over and over......FABULOUS!!!!

[@princepeterwolf]

No matter how many times I hear this song, it's been quite some time since I first heard it, and I still get the same feeling with it. This is not only an incredible song, but truly one of the best american songs of our time.

[@grannycaecris]

I love both Fantasia and Jennifer's voice, God blessed them both with a magnificent talent. My point is they should not be compared, they are both powerhouses!

[@JKJAZZY10]

Jennifer and Fantasia has their own different stories and delivers this song so heavenly. Thank u both

[@danafripp4120]

You know what? I'm so fed up with useless comparison. These kinds of songs are meant to be performed by capable artists who have the instrument and the heart to interpret them for decades to come. Each person brings something to the table. You can hear not just Celie's journey, but Jennifer's as well, and that is powerful. Fantasia brings her emotive power to her interpretation. Both have worth. Celebrate the interpreters.

[@jstory5640]

Dana Fripp I agree w u, I thought Jennifer was just amazing, it doesnt matter who sings it, Jennifer has certainly been through so much and she interpreted that song beautifully, I cry just about everytime I see it

[@dwelln]

I can't stop watching this...It's so good! How can it be?

[@LionQueen177]

I cried listening to this too. I have so much love and respect for this lady, Jennifer Hudson, you're such an inspiration, you've been through so much, the loss of your family but you're still standing firm, bless your heart.

[@BarbaraDicksonOfficial]

Breathtaking - beautiful performance!.....Jennifer was just amazing... I take this moment to take to listen to this song and think about my sister Sueli that too has passed away...

[@Mr247star]

jennifer voice and singing had a story telling feel to it...fantasia voice and singing has feeling in it...both good renditions.

[@KassiKamira]

Oh Oprah. The reaction when they lit up the choir was wonderful.

[@rockgiuly18]

No words, she has just touched my soul,,,

[@Fifi2cul4u]

[@catherinefitorre769]

[@burlesonee]

Jennifer , you ROCK !!!!!! Great performance !!!!! Just wonderful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@stevedrums1675]

Absolutely stunning. Brought tears to my eyes and I had never heard the song before nor am I a huge fan. However, I was brought to tears by her performance. I had never actually applauded for a performance sitting by myself in front of a computer before. That was a first.

[@thunder12rek]

I love this song. Jennifer Hudson’s voice is powerful, beautiful and extremely soulful.

[@4GBN591]

[@RobinB26]

She's so beautiful

[@1983SimplyBeautiful]

BEAUTIFUL!!! Beautiful... BEAUTIFUL!

[@needtoknowbasiss]

Yes even Paul McCartney was amazed , he's a freakin legend... Love it..

[@poeticproduct]

Her singing this song with the tragedies that she has endured make this rendition totally believable for me. @00:38 when she sings "I've got my sister", it really gives me chills. She sung this song beautifully, and Oprah felt that too.

[@datgemnig11]

This song always makes cry

[@creamytu]

wow exlente interpretacion!!! eres hermosa y grandiosa te amo JENNIFER HUDSON eres la mejor de las mejores

[@DrRice6]

At first I didn’t believe, and after seeing “Dreamgirls” I thought Jennifer was special; but more, where I did not consider more to be possible. Many have had vocals, but rarely anyone with the showmanship, rang and feelings; with the commanding presence of the stage with voice. The mastering of a craft with gift, Jennifer is beyond reproach and without doubt is the best in the world in this space and time; It has nothing to do with anyone else, because jennifer sings from a different place!

[@Neepinn]

That was beautiful wwoww!!!

[@Intersounds]

A standing ovation !!!!!!

[@michelleschmitt1322]

Tears of pure joy!

[@user-dg9ql5gm2k]

She' s very beautful and amazng voice.wow

[@tennelleepoo]

Beautifully done..

[@alves1490]

This is AMAZING!!!!!

[@catherinefitorre769]

WOW! Honestly this was spectacular. I'm actually kind of speechless. I FELT EVERY word that she sang in EVERY inch of my body. I've have honestly NEVER had an experience quite as precious as that before in my life. I am truly honored to have listened to the BEAUTIFUL and GLORIOUS Jennifer Hudson.

[@kcofficial]

goosebumps from the start to the end !

[@paulhedley2995]

breath taken performance

[@77Melicious]

Awesome performance

[@IntimatBiz]

Absolutely beautiful!!!

[@cuchelo1]

@smartblackwoman I have to agree. There's no denying Jennifer is a great singer, but this song isn't just about hitting the notes. It's about 'living' the lyrics for 4 and a half minutes, and when I see Fantasia perform it, I get chills every time.

[@s11smithk1]

OMG, i love her voice! rock on jennifer!

[@consuelo6849]

Beautiful Jennifer..

[@twtwzwza]

Jennifer did not need to win the American Idol, to prove She is really a good singer... and the best one!

[@iceprincess955]
