POWER!| FIRST TIME HEARING Patti LaBelle - Somebody Loves You Baby REACTION

[@Bill-sp8kb]

For me , only one song tops this one , and that's, "If Only You Knew." That's "my song." Brings tears to my eyes, every time I listen. Thanks for playing this masterpiece!

[@tylerhackner9731]

I love that song! My favorite of hers!

[@flodee8561]

Have they heard "If You Asked Me To"? Love that too!

[@agneskurzaj]

I would turn on the WJLB radio station out of Detroit on a Sunday morning. It was one of the greatest R&B stations, and did a slow groove across my floors at home to start my day. Yes, this one was also one of my faves. I have to admit. I had a crush on Patti back then . That was my church Sunday morning. Some God sent soulful sounds. It brought me closer to heaven. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.

[@loup4343]

I bought that record on vinyl back in the day. I love "If Only You Knew."

[@butterflymama0838]

I agree! I LOVE that song so much. It's beautiful!

[@loritajohnson5664]

Some of my favorites from Ms. Patti LaBelle: 1. If You Ask Me To 2. Yo Mister (written by Prince) 3. If Only You Knew 4. You Are My Friend 5. Over the Rainbow She's a National Treasure!

[@philburton2223]

I 💕 your list . I think I only have 2 songs I would switch but it doesn't matter all masterpieces 😊

[@rubyswaim1441]

Listening to Patti is like church! You gotta raise your hand and sway!

[@heavydown2582]

This is a voice that ONLY the church could produce.

[@Clairbella]

Oleta Adam's "Get here" is a must.

[@flodee8561]

Yes! I've been requesting this one also.

[@surlechapeau]

Jay & Amber, you must do LaBelle's “Lady Marmalade”!! A classic!!

[@jeffreycaldwell8579]

You Are My Friend is a must!!!!

[@roswails1492]

that is my favorite

[@LibraAllWoman]

Patti Labelle's song, "You Are My Friend", was my Mother's favorite song.

[@NicholasSarsby]

She got aretha franklins approval when Patti sang one of her songs in a performance and to get the queen of souls approval is everything. She certainly is a powerhouse.

[@bigb2494]

Aretha once said people labeled her the Queen of Soul, but Patti was the Godmother of Soul

[@pattyduke3079]

I'm going tell you how powerful Patti's voice is. At one of her meant concerts that I have attended, she turned off her mic and sang. I was sitting in a balcony seat and I could her, as if she still had her microphone turned on.

[@AlAndValOffGrid]

Her voice is effortless. She can simply do whatever she wants and the song needs.

[@rupenimudunavukuiii5909]

Soul Soothing ❤❤

[@StevePhil-qw4ep]

Straight Church everytime with Ms Patti

[@MnS101]

She sounds better in person. Just a wonderful vocalist. Jay, you're right she is a SANGER!

[@answ7211]

"You Are My Friend " will take u guys to church!!!!

[@byronware71]

There are no more powerful voices in the music industry than Patti and Aretha, The land of the Queens ,there is no other voice outside of Aretha Franklin that can touch these women. My favorite Patti song is “You are my Friend” I also love “Isn’t it a Shame” done with her first group Labelle. If you find live versions that would be great. But the recorded versions are very good too! You will be falling out of your chair.

[@emeraldtiger7135]

Patti is legendary. Great pick! Now don't forget about Angela...gotta get back to her as well and the song is "Your Smile".

[@ronfoskey2417]

There was nothing better than Patti live in the 70s and 80s. Her live "You Are My Friend" is fantastic. Over the Rainbow is my fave though.

[@AlisonRISD]

You gotta do Patti at the Apollo "somewhere over the rainbow" and Patti doing the ABCs on Seasame Street. Real deal sanger.

[@mikewingate284]

The control that Patti has is incredible! What a voice and talent!

[@sxm76]

When You've Been Blessed. Patti is on another level when she is LIVE! This video was made from her first Live recorded Concert.

[@panamas6865]

YES!!💗

[@brinsonopinion]

Profound confession of love. I've always loved this song, especially that first moment where she sings "It's me!" Glad you guys got to have that 1st time experience!

[@pd4104lang]

Patti is the voice of the millenium! Written by the late, great Bunny Sigler! R.I.P

[@JorgeWalker-d4n]

You should see the Pattie Celebration on BET when Gerald Levert sang this song to Pattie Labelle Live OMG. Gerald killed it

[@agneskurzaj]

Patty, Patty, Patty. Seeing her live was one of the most gorgeous experiences of my life. To live in a time with these greats was a smorgasbord of beautiful ethereal sound. A literal buffet of power houses. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.

[@bertisjordan1085]

I'm old enough to remember when the ending to award shows all the performers would gather together at the end and sing together. Pattie singlehandedly ended all that because she would blow everyone off the stage while kicking off her shoes!

[@hervehightower2364]

there's only one patti labelle god has blessed us with beautiful lady this one of my favorites it's an honor to know of this lady here i first saw in concert in 1985 and been a fan since.

[@ISVVVc628]

Y'all are absolutely missing out if you don't check out Ms Patti's incredible duet with saxophonist Grover Washington Jr. "The Best Is Yet To Come". 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@db-gb5xi]

More Patti from the 80s, Yo Mister (written and produced by Prince). If You Asked Me To (the closing song to the James Bond movie, License To Kill [Gladys Knight did the theme]. Stir It Up, from the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack. For the group Labelle, the power ballad Isn't It A Shame, What Can I Do For You and Are You Lonely. There are clips of the last two songs being performed on Cher's 70s variety show with Cher.

[@loritajohnson5664]

I just suggested 'Yo Mister'!

[@MichaelJohnson-wk8tk]

I've been a Patti fan since the 1970's and her music has been a blessing to me. The things you two said about her in this reaction video is why I think of her as one of the GOATS. Thanks for all the hard work you do in sharing these commentaries with the rest of us.

[@1121barbara]

Next Friday do Deniece Williams "silly" and " too much too little too late" jordan loves falsettos she has an amazing voice

[@user-dz6fy6qv2l]

Please!! We need more Niecy on this channel.

[@loritajohnson5664]

YES!!!🎉

[@corettacotton4609]

Yes that's a great one!

[@stephaniejones4749]

What can you say about Miss Patti LaBelle ever since she first came on the scene with her group. "LaBelle," singing "Lady Marmalade" I have been a fan and just an added note. I love her double crust. Peach Cobbler go ahead Miss Patty!!

[@felixkatify]

Patti the Great! Please do Lady Marmalade, one of her most famous and best songs from the 70s. You'll be blown away!

[@andrethomas7096]

Song takes your breath away... Every time for me.

[@LaurindaBellinger]

I saw her on tour when this album dropped - she tore up every song. Her mic went out during this song and she still filled the arena. One of the best nights of my life. Live version of 'You Are My Friend" is iconic!

[@tobysmith3351]

I saw her in concert. Every single song is a 11. Strong vocals every single one of them. Yes, they need to listen to "Lady Marmalade"

[@herstorylives7405]

"If you only knew" is my FAV, too!!

[@youarehere4902]

At a tribute to Patti Gerald Levert did this song foe her it was great a must see.

[@LMmccallL57]

More by Patti - "Feels Like Another One" (w/Big Daddy Kane) "The Right Kinda Lover" "Love, Need and Want You" "Yo, Mister" (written by Prince) Her version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" will always be an absolute favorite for me, as long as I'm mentally capable of remembering it.

[@rhondaatkins1776]

Yes, Love Need and Want you! Another "Quiet Storm" classic!

[@LMmccallL57]

@@rhondaatkins1776 I love it, and my mom did, too. 🙂 I used to love The Quiet Storm sessions on the radio.

[@davidjenkins61]

Patti LaBelle soulful voice by far one of the best, I know you guys like the soulful ladies that can sang, you should check out Quincy Jones feat. Tamia - You Put A Move On My Heart ,Tamia is amazing..

[@josephadiaz8343]

Always wanting and willing to listen to my Patti LaBelle. If ever you get a chance to see her perform her songs,do it. She is absolutely one of the best ever. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🏼✝️✌🏼😎

[@charlesallen2306]

And yes she is that amazing live. That's no studio voice. Power!!

[@bakercarl8518]

I bow my head and say Thank you, thank you. Amen.

[@philburton2223]

Patti is like Church 😁 " Let the ⛪ say amen "🙏

[@rhondaatkins1776]

Kiss Away the Pain doesn't get talked about enough!! A "Quiet Storm" classic!

[@byker8507]

My absolute favorite song from Patti LaBelle was the duett with Michael McDonald, "On my own"

[@MOS650]

Etta James - I’d Rather Go Blind ( Live At Montreux 1975) Esther Phillips - Home Is Where The Hatred Is. Gladys Knight & The Pips - To Be Invisible.

[@delorespetree3243]

Love listening to Patti music

[@terrellinc22]

patti labelle "if only you knew', "Winner in you" "My Love, Sweet Love "

[@Mus1c1luv]

Let's not forget "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." Vocally and physically, Patti almost flies in that song.

[@patswanson2870]

Connie Francis was very popular in the late 50’s and early 60’. Two of her songs I remember are Who’s Sorry Now, and Somebodys Fool. (I know she had many other hits)

[@kevaunmitchell1316]

This song is such a classic I love her vocals on this song and on the right kinda Lover

[@JorgeWalker-d4n]

You cant miss with Pattie You Are My Friend (Live) with Debbie on the intro Somewhere Over The Rainbow

[@562goodguy]

Labelle - The original members of the band Labelle were Patti LaBelle (born Patricia Louise Holt), Cindy Birdsong, Sarah Dash, and Wynona "Nona" Hendryx. They were a powerhouse group in the 70's. Two of their most popular songs were "Lady Marmalade" and "Isn't It A Shame". Perfect for Female Friday.

[@michaelrichardwarner]

I. Remember seeing Patty Labelle. Perform here in Omaha, Nebraska years ago, it was one of the pleasures of my life. Especially because my mom was still alive. At that time I was a 7-year-old little boy and got a chance to see her show and she waved at me and I will never forget it. I'm 37 now and I still have an image of her in a beautiful red dress waving at me from the front row.

[@terrencemorris3983]

The legendary patti Labelle nice chioce

[@PSPguy2]

Could you imagine living with someone who sings like that and hearing her just sing around the house?

[@jackscott7752]

I think wood enjoy Diana Washington and Brook Benton . You got what it takes.. 1:28

[@corbinsmith88]

You guys have done some great Patti Labelle songs, but her best is If You Ask Me To. Hands down her best song. She let Saline Dion and set it, but Patti’s the original version & the best version

[@mrtim2kl4]

Lady Marmalade has been sampled by many great artists throughout the years, but nothing beats the original by Ms. Labelle...hope you get around to it someday...peace!

[@kimvillemarette3313]

Hey guys, thank you I’m from Nola and my hobby was going to concerts about 25 years ago. I have seenPatti LaBelle the most. If you just knew how powerful her voice was in person. This is one of her best songs really need to dive down that rabbit hole if you want an upbeat song, you oughta do feels like another one and for spirituality y’all should do when you’ve been blessed that’s a gorgeous song thanks again guys

[@d-nice5960]

Don't forget Pattie Labelle and the late great Grover Washington " The best is yet to come" Smooth Jazz meet R&b love song. You guys have to listen to it. I guarantee that you both will love it. You will be doing yourselves a great musical disservice if you don't.

[@BufordT]

Y'all need to hear the duet of Patti LaBelle and Michael McDonald "On My Own". Such powerful voices separately, together they make magic!

[@CapricornKidd90]

They already did On My Own

[@BufordT]

​@WinterBaby90 You're right, way back in January 2022. My how the time flies!

[@khamikins]

the live version is even more amazing

[@josephsummers3241]

Both of you are the real thing. Found you today and love everything you have so far. So honest. You should take it on the road, such as Foxwoods Resort and Casino?

[@jenniferwathen]

Please react to Patti's duet with country artist Travis Tritt, "When Something Is Wrong With My Baby." It's my favorite duet.

[@darnell49]

Isn’t It A Shame(Labelle), Over The Rainbow, You Are My Friend, Little Girls, If You Asked Me To, and Joy To Have Your Love are a few others in her stellar catalog‼️

[@brucearchie8354]

Patti LaBelle = Mic Drop....You don't know, you betta ask somebody! ❤

[@mztweety1374]

Pretty sure my Grandma had this record. She loved her some Patti... I still remember where we were the first time I heard her cover of " if you don't know me by now". We were on our way to Boblo Island in Canada. God I miss the 80s😂😂

[@SoloArt8250]

Besides her beautiful vocals, I love Ms. LaBell’a sweet potato pie from Walmart 😁

[@andrinabroussard1972]

Me too 😂

[@trueblue8869]

I love how yall just vibing and feeling. I feel you, same!

[@divatalk9011]

It’s sad Patti rarely gets half the views as singers who have half her talent

[@awoFalase]

MS. PATTI 🔥❤🔥

[@allenoutlaw7170]

She came to st.louis a long time ago...fox theater...she was singing the song and always held the Mike faraway from her mouth...then she went Acapella...and trust me she did not need a mike...G.O.A.T.

[@brianwilson7314]

I'm so glad you reacted to this song. The way she sings this song. AMAZING!

[@RandyDeShong-xq1bo]

"Lady Marmalade". Iconic classic Patti Labelle in the early days. Still a great classic song.

[@sues4239]

Love, Need and Want You If Only You Knew If You Asked Me To

[@evarene07]

One of the greats…a voice that can never be copied or duped💜Patti will literally have you laid out😁…#prince “Auntie”, although she always mentions him as her “son.”

[@mrphelps72]

Patti Labelle My Love, Sweet Love

[@shannonk.moorer9158]

Amber, your t-shirt is the name of a song by Colonel Abrams, an 80s dance music star. You should definitely react to it! As for Patti, I suggest Labelle's Isn't It A Shame.

[@vanessa4u4evr]

Diva. Diva. DIVA!!!!!!!

[@wilelowman]

Do love FF, just relied "Who knows where the time goes" by Fairport convention ( ft. Sandy Denny) is 55 years old.

[@JimSteele-ck5vu]

Love me some Patti Labelle

[@CharlesMosley129]

one of the biggest R&B hits of 1991. especially in Philadelphia where i lived at the time.

[@palmirasanchez]

You need to listen to Patty sing Some Where Over The Rainbow. She had one of the most powerful voices of all time.I knew her more fun the 89s but she is a voice that could fill up 3 Cathedrals!!!

[@Jude_196]

Ms. Patti: FIRE PIPES!!! 🔥🔥🔥🎵🎵🎵 SUCH a PERFECT VOICE!! LOVE HER! Thanks for reacting to this one, Ya'll! HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

[@paulraymond-bf8db]

Van Halen Intruder intro into Pretty Woman. Incredible

[@user-nc9vm6rw4i]

I am so happy that you found this one! I've been loving the grown r&b that has been showing up recently and watching you discover and fully appreciate it. If you ever get a chance to see Patti live, absolutely go.

[@litosway1664]

You have to watch Fantasia's tribute to her and also Gerald leveret's tribute to patti.

[@jackscott7752]

If you want to powerhouses listen to Celine and Barbara sing Tell Him

[@philburton2223]

Patti is the truth. Listing to Patti is like going to church. Watching your reaction brings back so many memories. Anber it' s funny you should say she is like an opera singer because I remember one of the three tenors had to drop out of an awards show & Patti filled in last minute. Patti has her pies @ Walmart & while I am not a fan of retail the 🥧. 1 I am not mad @ her for cashing in & making 🏦 💰🤑. I am sure those pies are a great help for those who do not know how to make a good pie on their own & 2 Pattie is now the rulling queen approved by Aretha herself 😊

[@bjware511]

You two are now understanding the true word Diva, The land of the Queens ,there is no other voice outside of Aretha Franklin that can touch these women. My favorite Patti song is “You are my Friend” also love “Isn’t it a Shame” done with her first group Labelle.

[@empire7179]

Oh you guys should go to one of her concert!!! I remember being at one of her concerts and she like to kick off her shoes., This time it flew cross the stage and hit her piano player on the head😲 I mean he even had to laugh😀.. This is how she really sing Live.

[@jacqueline4514]

Next Patti Labelle song: “MUSIC IS MY WAY OF LIFE” a JAM! “My feet can dance upon a dime; give five cents back, keep in time” 🔥 A true old school dance cut 🪩

[@gerardcote8391]

Jay loves violin highly recommend Unlucky Morpheus Cadaver/Revadac with sheet music

[@user-dz6fy6qv2l]

If you didn't recognize it, Patti shot this video at the world famous Apollo Theater. A place that she ALWAYS tore down, even back when she was younger in a group called Patti LaBelle and the Blue Belles. You have to react to Patti singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow. It's her signature song and she does the absolute best version.

[@brucedavis4773]

Glad y’all did this song Patti Patti

[@gerardcote8391]

Jay if you like guitar solos, do BabyMetal Rondo of Nightmares with the Mischief of the Metal Gods Intro.
