Martha Wash - Carry On

[@yolandaponkers1581]

Probably one of the best voices ever placed on this earth.

[@Aardcore]

Her and Jocelyn Brown; forces of nature!

[@tzuccolo2001]

Hallelujah!

[@theindy79]

Agreed the heart of an artist always shines from spirit more than physical. Martha has it

This songs inspires me deeply, I have lost 4 close family member to cancer but I remember my strong loving mother and lover, who always pushed me forward.

I had the good fortune to work with her back in the 1980's when I was a club dj, fabulous person very professional

[@rhinoface1]

Without mentioning names, she blows a lot of modern singers away! Wonderful voice.

[@Leatherbro]

In a New York minute and with a smile on her face while doing it. A vocal powerhouse in every sense. This is what I call singing in comparison to what you hear nowadays.

[@ebonynomagazine6112]

This song is too good to be underrated

[@reginabellestar]

One of the greatest voices. A real real singer. A true artist. No gimmick. Realness. Voice voice voice. Singing and soul.

[@AdamStrange2000]

Shes a national treasure. One of our nations most underrated voices. This song is my mantra when im feeling down

[@mixrbear]

I heard this song at the right time about 25 years ago...if ii hadnt heard her voice and those lyrics, i would probably be dead. Thank you Martha Wash.

Such an amazing talent..... lame ass music business, they did her so wrong.

[@markorbit4752]

Phillip W. So so wrong. Just reading her story now. I'm so pissed at what they did to her

[@1976-h8m]

This song gets me through whatever life throws it me, I feel powerful! Never lose my will, I'll carry on. Martha is an absolute legend

[@motopelamohapi4152]

2021 Anyone? The inspiration in this song, kept me going through my varsity days.

[@murraykins1952]

Should have been a huge star, it's incredible how many youngsters have never heard of her

[@MusicmanDavid]

One of the best voices ever.

[@mmabion]

Martha Wash is the vocal blueprint for house music period! MW forever ❤❤❤

[@seanjenkins331]

One of the best voices out there. Martha created the R&B/Dance fusion that swept the 90's.

[@cbdallas]

I've been drawing strength and inspiration from this talented woman for more years than I care to admit. This song is at the heart of that strength. She's all about the love and doing what's right. Sing on, girl.

[@ericasimmons0792]

I remember watching Double Platinum as a kid and hearing this song and instantly fell in love with it

[@dizzygay_maree9558]

Here in 2024 ❤ One of the most under appreciated artists in the industry. Her music is still in all of my playlists for waking up, taking a walk, travelling, cooking, cleaning, chilling with music, entertaining or just a day at the beach

[@jeffjones3506]

the depth of her voice is amazing.....WOWWWWW

[@kevinsidenstricker9277]

OMG!!!! Where have you been all of my life?!?!? I LOVE this talent!!!

[@ajhoncantara]

The one and only. That voice is beyond…

[@ITouchYou4TheLulz]

It's really an enigma why Ms. Walsh is not more popular. Her voice is stunning.

[@frc1968]

Martha's vocals are so powerful. She sends chills up my spine! Keep singin' it girl!!

[@O9SSAM]

I had the pleasure of being friends with Martha's manager Douglas and had 4th of July dinner with them in long island at their home. I actually still live 5mins from them Miss Martha was and always will be such a Diva and an awesome talent. Love you Miss Martha and RIP good friend Douglas. Ossam

[@decoder3449]

I can't believe I never linked your voice to each group in the 90s. So glad I discovered you. Your voice was so iconic. We expect all big gurls to have well developed lungs.

[@josephgarduza]

I meet her by RuPaul Drag Race, at 2009!!!

[@johnfischbach1492]

Martha Wash's voice is a force of nature its too bad she's always been hidden by the music industry because she's a large woman, they should instead give her the same headlines and exposure they give the skinny little girls that get drooled over that really have no talent at all.

[@boxytfm8818]

Dude! You can't say that! I know this is a late reply, but that is a really one sided opinion. A lot of thin girls have talent. Quite a few big singers have strong vocals, i agree, but talent has many diferrent aspects.

[@davidb5205]

If there's one industry where large women are appreciated it's the music industry: Jill Scott, Jazmine Sullivan, Jennifer Hudson (successful before her weight loss), Adele, Tank and the Bangas (you should check them out if you haven't heard of them). And not to mention all the gospel singers!

[@ellimistiquekrystal]

+David Boucard Watch her documentary. RuPaul's in it!

[@ericbragatti6531]

@@davidb5205 this is today, Martha wash is a singer from 80's it was so different. We're talking the rules for these singers in that decade no the exception. Martha could be more recognized as well.

[@ericbragatti6531]

[@MissGNX]

Martha Wash should be a national treasure. Aretha Franklin is bowed down to & Martha Wash isn't?!! WTH?Martha Wash's entire debut CD should've been number 1 for weeks, debuting there & this song definitely should've been number 1 with Grammy Awards etc. But no she's a plus size woman & the music industry only want rail thin bone skinny talentless nothings! Ms. Wash I'm gonna always support & "Carry On" with YOU sister!

Totally agree , Martha Wash is a very much underrated talent, a superior vocialist .
