KIKI DEE sings AMOUREUSE and STAR on the MARTI CAINE SHOW (MARCH 1981)

[@damiancullinane9239]

Saw her and Carmelo Luggeri in Lyme Regis last Saturday. She sang all her 70s hits and i told her I'd waited 50 years to hear her sing Amoureuse, she seemed very touched. Lovely lady and still as beautiful as in this clip at 77 now! And still a great voice too!!❤

[@davidprovan5650]

What a treat !

[@nicktucker4243]

Wow, I wish that I had known about that gig, Lyme is only about 25 miles away, I could have gone there easily. It's also one of my favourite songs & Kiki is a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice. 😍💞🎤🎵🎼❤

[@Pa-tk1dx]

Folks....she is singing this live. No lip synching. Incredible singer. One of the very best voices ever!!

[@MiloTheCat.]

I did wonder as it was so perfect she may have been lip syncing but no - definitely live and what a beautiful woman she is!

[@Markycarandbikestuff]

Yep, live mic with a backing track, awesome voice.

[@oliviastar3812]

Yes, and who's the backing singer tho?

[@Markycarandbikestuff]

@@oliviastar3812 On Star ?, her own voice maybe ?, the studio version was twin tracked.

[@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx]

@@Markycarandbikestuff I suspect that, like on many TV shows of the era, there was a backing 'orchestra' off camera. Musicians' Union had a lot of sway in those days.

Kiki Dee, Barbara Dixon and Elkie Brooks. We were spoilt rotten in the late 70's and 80's.

[@johnrowan7137]

Such a criminally underrated singer. Completely overlooked in the 60's as was Elkie Brooks when they should have been up there with Dusty, Sandie, Cilla, Lulu and Petula

[@stephenhowell5611]

Kiki worked a lot with Dusty as a backing singer, Dusty would often sing backing vocals for Kiki, Lesley Duncan and Madeline Bell when they made records.

[@pam-gw6uk]

She was up there alongside Dusty, and way better than Cilla, Lulu and Sandie Shaw.

[@stepheng8779]

​@@pam-gw6ukshe's good but no-one was up there with Dusty, ever. And Cilla? Come on 😂

[@davidbarton5974]

@stepheng8779 I completely agree with you about Dusty - nobody close to her before or after, especially Cilla! However Sandie Shaw, Elkie Brooks and Kiki Dee were fabulous back in their day (I have them all on CD), just not up there with Dusty!

[@normanmeharry58]

​@davidbarton5974 not Sandra Shaw? She was more hype than talent.

[@BillyCosmosis]

Wow! What a professional. Her pitching is consistently spot on and all performed with poise and grace.

Love Kiki Dee! Such an amazing voice! Proud to say she went to my school in Bradford!

[@steve_dangerous]

Been discovering her early material and enjoyed so much of it. I run a quiz night in a tiny Lancashire pub and I've trained the audience to always consider 'Kiki' as a possible answer in the music round. Our favourite 'Bradford Chantreuse' as I call her. Such a beautiful voice. Been a fan since the 70s.

De Véronique Samson.

[@stumeister5507]

Beautiful song. Such a difference between how Males and females view their first experience. Males tend to "high-five" and see it as a right of passage but this beautifully crafted song describes a woman having an amazing and deeply moving experience that transforms her to woman hood. Such a beautiful song and sung with surgical clarity...

[@Lala_Babayeva]

Is there any reference in the song for this song being about losing one’s virginity? I might have missed/misinterpreted some of the lyrics maybe?

Beautiful voice and artist! « Just another day » is an adaptation of « Amoureuse », wrote in French and composed by France’s super star Véronique Sanson, who started her career with this beautiful song in early 70´s.

Indeed, with English lyrics by Gary Osbourne

[@aliciarobertson4979]

In my opinion, having seen Veronique perform it, Kiki did a better version because she brought the emotional subtlety of the English lyrics to life.

I'm not sure if it was a management issue or what, but she was and is the complete deal. If a singer came along now with this talent they'd be on top of the world. Had a huge crush on her in the early 70's. Like a lot of female singers seemed to be more interested in singing ballads like this than "power" numbers, which she could really belt out.
