That was LIVE. No Autotune needed. Pure talent.

[@roybargz]

It’s January 17, 2024, and I am listening to this perfectly sang masterpiece. And I don’t think new generation “singers” (as what they call themselves) could understand the artistry of this performance. NO AUTOTUNE needed, raw voice and no lip sync

[@tommoncrieff1154]

40 years later and this stands the test of time. She runs over, knocks out this song perfectly with her pure, beautiful voice and perfect diction - it’s much harder to sing than it looks - then runs back to Joan. And she looks fabulous.

[@Kelbel30]

I never truly realized in the 80s how beautiful her voice was. Amazing!

[@summer2786]

Exactty, same here

[@kevinowens7874]

She is absolutely breathtaking, she sang this LIve! She sang this song LIVE! She emotes and makes you feel ever lyric! No gimmicks,no backgrounds, Her talent and voice, front and center! begining and established singers take note! A true testimony of raw talent and charisma. This is a performance worth studying.

[@matthewwold8112]

The hair. The outfit. Perfection, but neither top this song, a forgotten piece of pop history, and the pitch-perfect vocal performance--a great reminder of Sheena Easton's undeniable talent.

[@everydayyogawithpeterbarag3709]

❤ Sheena is amazing! Her voice is one of a kind and in the top 5 of all female singers in decades. Move over Celine and Adel

[@josephpaguio8190]

no autotune no backup singers just plain voice and music.. awesome

[@garyt19651]

she is great !

[@garyt19651]

She is one of my favorites of all time. Great voice and absolutely gorgeous I did get to meet her before a show, during the show I was sitting dead center in the front row and when she sang " For your eyes Only" she was looking directly at me. One of the highlights of my life , Some great moments like that you NEVER forget. '

[@WinstonKnows]

@@garyt19651 That’s so awesome! What year did you see her?

[@erossinema8797]

But why don't we have singers that sing like this today? Today, they need autotune, vocoding, millions of dancers to distract from the fact they can't sing.

[@robertromero9488]

What's wrong with backup singers. Almost all singers have backup singers

[@sbinsdca]

Her eyes are incredibly expressive. She's feeling every emotion as she's singing the lyrics. What a performance.

[@andresienes9424]

Because the song was her true to life story. 💔😥

[@DERedhead1965]

she is TRULY a Beautiful Lady and a GORGEOUS voice... I just listened to some recent videos of her and she looks and sounds INCREDIBLE still in 2023!

[@JohnBernardon-py7wf]

The expression that they used was that she made love to the camera, and she certainly did. The way she used to spin her head around suddenly staring right at you got me every time.

[@LuisitoBautista-ui9ij]

Her voice so clear and beautiful it's mesmerizing ❤❤❤❤

[@gcm9820]

My all time favorites Debbie Harry, Olivia Newton John and Sheena Easton. America's sweet hearts for a long time but I think Sheena Easton was the one with the most outstanding voice.

[@alfredoabello2530]

I almost forgot how great a singer Sheena Easton is, until i saw this video again!

[@gregoryreed4866]

My god!!!!! That was beautiful. Never seen that performance before. Jesus she was spot on!!!

[@erossinema8797]

It should not be that surprising. It is what professional singers are supposed to be able to do. Part of the awfulness of singers today, is due to music consumers. The other problem is record executives.

[@LisaGemini]

Not only is her voice incredible, she rocks that short, curly hair like nobody else! Will always love her.

[@PracticalKnow]

I don't think anyone truly appreciates the devastating Perfection this performance is. This is a truly uniquely talented person.

[@jorgealbertorodriguezvilla8773]

Una voz hermosa sin duda estoy de acuerdo con usted espero tenga la oportunidad de escuchar la versión en español se llama. Todo me recuerda a ti .de lo mejor en la balada en español Un saludo desde México cd

[@kingkonglang]

@Nenethegreat W LOSER.

[@quziuedocciexil6036]

@Nenethegreat W Hey anyone can sing but, I believe he is referring to vocal capability and tonality of 70's - 90's music... And if you have grudges towards this type of music don't even try to hate, we have different tastes of music or genre whatever you prefer to call it.

[@sammyd9564]

I was so lucky to be young in the 80s and witness the best singers that ever lived !! No doubt the best decade ever for music!

[@sunnytaufiq07]

Oh my.... What an amazing voice. Make me smile in tears hearing her sweet voice. Really miss the 80a.

[@jtimwest]

I saw her live at her peak in popularity. Amazing. No backup singers. Flawless and perfect pitch

[@jericojanoras1648]

one of them songs that you sort of wonder if it can be done live without messing up its qualities. Sheena answered that in this video. Pure perfection.😍

[@TobiAnimados]

Her voice here is out of this world! What a perfect performance!

[@xionliew9000]

No gimmick, just her voice. One word ... WOW! 😮😮😮

[@RBS_]

...The ULTIMATE 'Lady Of The 80's'; ...one of Sheena's BEST 'live' performances on a Talk Show...She's in absolute PERFECT pitch, singing strong & clear to the BACK, and the ENUNCIATION of the lyrics...SUBLIME....and to think, when She started her career, they thought she was 'bland' and wouldn't make it...She's NOW become the GOLD standard of an Adult Contemporary Singer, of the 80's.....

[@epitaph7127]

legit one of the greatest live performances i've ever seen in my life

[@happyboy78]

Sheena knew how to work that camera! I swear, during the last minute of the performance, she’s singing and looking into the soul of everyone who’s watching... and the band was on point too!!! Love this

[@TheJer1963]

The band was not live. She is singing karaoke that the store is trying ti sell.

[@bperezopazo]

Está en vivo. No invitas a Bruce Hornsby a hacer karaoke.@@TheJer1963

Crystal clear voice, not forced. I saw her live in concert. Same result. Awesome talent!

[@aldoa.a.a.6703]

Beautiful ❤️. Takes me back in time when music was beautiful and life was simple 😢😢😢.

[@mravanteguarde]

Damn she nailed it on the spot live! This is the time where auto-tune is nothing. Love the 80's era also early 90's where great music is at its peak.

[@garyt19651]

I think she is GREAT but I will take mid 60's music as the best ever.

[@googlemyself4091]

​@@garyt19651 Lol the mid 60's? The best era for music was the 70's. All of the Motown groups, The Bee Gees ect.

[@erossinema8797]

@@googlemyself4091 Most people agree that the 1960s was better for music than the 1970s, however you're entitled to your opinion

[@drei9]

​@googlemyself4091 my father said he thinks the 70s and early 80s were the best.

I saw an old friend of ours today she asked about you I didn't quite know what to say heard you've been making the rounds 'round here while i've been trying to make tears disappear...... Now i'm almost over you i've almost shook these blues so when you come back around after painting the town, you'll see i'm almost over you........ You're such a sly one with your cold, cold heart maybe leaving came easy but it tore me apart time heals all wounds, they say and I should know 'cause it seems like forever but i'm letting you go..... Now i'm almost over you i've almost shook these blues so when you come back around after painting the town, you'll see i'm almost over you..... I can forgive you and soon i'll forget all those shattered dreams although you've left me with nothing to show full of misery.... Now i'm almost over you i've almost shook these blues so when you come back around after painting the town, you'll see i'm almost over you.......

[@jerryong4958]

Look up several of Sheena's live performances in her prime and she was near perfect. With Autotune, so few singers today can perform their songs so close to their original recordings (Adele, comes to mind). This and Kenny Rodgers and her in "We've Got Tonight" are some of my favorites.

[@user-zb2hi8ct9q]

Live recorded Almost Over You sung by Sheena Easton in 1984 was very rare. This song is the best ballad of her ballads, I believe. I'm very pleased. Thank you very much.
