Stephanie Mills is 1 of the greatest female R&B singers that ever graced us with her beautiful voice

[@tinamarie2484]

Since the day my mom recorded this from the HBO special, I've cried everytime I've watched this part. Auntie Stephanie's sanging and Sinbad's words resonate so strong.

[@jevonlmack]

[@RhFacter]

I’m not a fan/groupie type person, but why is Stephanie Mills the one and only artist that I wish was my friend IRL? ❤ I absolutely love her voice, music, and what she exudes as a beautiful black woman. 👸🏾👏🏾🌺

[@stephaniebrooks8044]

Nobody sings Home like Stephanie!!❤️❤️❤️

[@ellalove9670]

I thank Sinbad and staff for this wonderful show.

[@sharonanderson5201]

Before Whitney there was STEPHANIE MILLS and STILL IS

[@paulneedham2762]

Both are great singers with two very different voices.

[@polly8844]

But MISS MILLS has that certain soul to her music, in her style. It brings me back. It's as if the ancestors are singing with her or thru her.

[@gilbertstone9497]

When Stephanie Mills performed "Home" at the Sinbad Summer Jam that is perhaps the greatest live performance I've ever seen and or heard

[@naptoniusmonk869]

With a throat cold! She's unreal!

[@HollyGolightly74]

Watch her at the apollo. She wore it out

[@regg32457]

What year was this???

[@zuazhar1630]

gilbert stone: You should’ve heard her sing it in the Wiz on Broadway in 1975! My family and I were blessed to see and hear her. She gave the whole audience chills. This tiny little girl with that phenomenal voice has all of us in tears.

[@nathanphilson9607]

@@HollyGolightly74 yep she did. To me it was the best one

[@karenwright8491]

This is a beautiful performance by a real woman. No plastic just the Lord’s work 🥰💜🌎

[@harvestnoelcrawford7026]

When Phillip Bailey bows to you, you KNOW you bad!!!

[@CraigDuncan-i3k]

Saw her sing Home when she was 13 it was awesome then and it’s only gotten better…..she belongs with all the greats Rere,Chaka and Whitney and all the rest….ijs I too am guilty of watching her sing this countless times..

[@billybest3363]

One of the ABSOLUTE BEST CONCERTS in the HISTORY OF MANKIND!!!! SHE HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK INTO OUTER SPACE!!

[@victorantonio1]

Wow, Thanx Billy..

[@bobbrettemuhammad4146]

...NO DOUBT❤

[@shirleyjolly4350]

No one else can sing this song like Miss Stephanie 🥰🥰🥰

[@ellalove9670]

Ms. Mills is the greatest artist I have ever heard. The way she sings this song is incredible.

[@1984Nupe]

Took them to church!❤

[@johnmadison8070]

Bow Mrs. Mills ... Best natural female voice EVER

[@kimberjack]

This performance was everything. Stephanie, the band, the background singers were 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ClearYourMindTravel]

You know you bad (and I do mean good) when Phillip Bailey bows down to you.

[@darryljackson4813]

Nobody can sing this like Stephanie! This is an example of how she owns this song. If it were ever a question, watch this until the end and let it carry you through her triumphant build up on the "when I think of home" part when she takes the audience to church towards the middle/end of the song. Sinbad comes out and gives it up to her. That's when it really gets going then! By the time it's done, there should be no questions. Signed, sealed and delivered! This is her song! He had to get her back out hit that whole outro one more time just to make sure you get it. Probably one of the best renditions of it ever. Stephanie Mills for sure enough wins. (She has the meanest growl in the world. One of my favorite things about her. She hit you with that growl and it's all over with after that!)

[@johnreynoldsiii2491]

She STOMPED this.

[@amymassey2663]

Stephanie Mills is one of the best.. WOW!!

[@theresaharbert3902]

That’s my girl can’t nobody and I mean NOBODY sing like this icon of a woman like STEPHANIE MILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@p.w.7493]

Stephanie Mills not only OWNS this song, she's "HOME" with it!! The BEST/GOAT!!!💕💯

[@ladijae1]

NO 1 Sings this song like Stephanie!!!!! She OWNS this! 6/25/18 loving every note who else listening ????

Ladi Jae1 Made it her own, that real talent!!!

[@cvj2003]

She brought the howse DOWN!!!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾❤❤❤❤

[@MidnightSwinger]

One of those magical times when the groove and the energy are so right and you just wanna ride that moment forever. If I remember correctly, Stephanie was sick as a dog and had a raging high fever but had committed to performing and, like the trained theater pro she is, knew the show must go on and ate the damn thing alive. You can see she's sweating bad and you can hear how ragged her voice is at points, her control isn't as tight, the power notes aren't as full in sound, and a couple times she just loses the note altogether for a second, but dammit, even sick half to death she's ten times the singer anybody else is and she STILL sounds great. She still went out there sang for like ten minutes, and had that whole beach in the palm of her hand. Mark of a TRULY great performer. And so powerful that Sinbad was moved to come out and give that great speech off the cuff, got folks out there cryin and huggin strangers from all the love in the air, and she sings AGAIN. Incredible. Moments like this are so rarely captured on recording, and it's such a treasure. This was on here for years and then disappeared. Thanks for sharing it again.

[@livencali1]

So powerfully spoken words. I cried during this performance as I felt the spirits!

[@ellenringer5236]

I saw no flaws, no sweating. I heard her magnificent voice!

[@YasminE-dk6nf]

This is the first time in seeing this. I heard no flaws. But I agree 💯%. She is a true artist, a true professional who so appreciates her fans! The audience was Great!!!!

[@ynwa3476]

One of the most beautiful women to grace this earth.

[@MrWilson1972]

That VOICE !!!!!! Give me Stephanie and Whitney from the 80s.......yall can have the rest. Amazing

[@cdjblue52]

I've loved this song for decades...In my 65th year I cry every time I hear it.

[@essenceofwandawm7694]

I KNOW THE FEELING

[@dinahellen]

Ditto! I saw The Wiz when I was in my 20’s, and she blew me away! I’m 70 now, and I still get the chills whenever anybody sings that song. Melinda Doolittle came out 3rd on American Idol, Season 5?, and her version of the song was pretty amazing, as well.

[@stevenhosea4849]

There are no words I remember when I first saw this I literally hit the floor she sung this and she meant every word chaka Khan is my top female singer and Stephanie is number two.after many decades this still leaves my breathless and this still blows my cold away I wish the new singers of today could see this and she can really show the newbies how it's really done.

Before I knew it Ive fallen to sleep and for 30 mins it was some of the most peaceful rest of mind sleep at childhood home. It was just something about moms bed even at 53 it would happen every time. Rip moms when i think of home....

[@GooniesNeverSayDie1980]

Who would have ever thought that 4' 9", even smaller at one point, could have power in a "land of giants", Miss Stephanie Mills, that's who.... No assisting backing track is being played for the band nor for Miss Stephanie, all live in time, all awesome.... Not only did Sinbad bow down to Miss Stephanie, Mr. Philip Bailey ran out to bow down to Miss Stephanie as well.... I was never the age that I could attend Sinbad's old school getaways, being born in 1980, but I damn sure watched them with much enjoyment & plenty of smiles....
