In 2013 SWV earned its second Grammy nomination with a remake of Patti LaBelle's signature hit 'If Only You Knew." It was SWV's first Grammy nom since 1994.
Overall the group has been nominated for over 20 awards from the Grammys, American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Soul Train Awards and Kid's Choice Awards. SWV are winners of eight Billboard Awards and has sold over a combined 10 million LPs and Singles domestically.
Love this version, am i the only one completely in love with Lelee's part? Coko killed it!!!
Tommy Gorham me too
+Taria Lewis is this not keke wyatts song?
No both are remakes Patti. Labelle is the originator
Sing Lelee!!! Coko with those notes!!!! Yes!
Never heard lelees voice that much and its great. Worth the wait.
yall just gonna pretend like Lee Lee didnt kill that !!!! yassss mama
Exactly
She shole TF did...😯❤️
Pleasantly surprised.
Yo
I love her voice too... the raspy quality does something to me.... love Lee Lee
Coko is obviously the voice of SWV, Lee Lee’s tone is actually the one that stands out to me, Taj‘s blending is some of the best I’ve heard in harmonies.
That’s why they make up a fantastic group
Who else went down a SWV rabbit hole after tonight’s verzuz
Me! This is one of may gems I found.
Beeeen here for a while now 💀🙌🏽👏🏽 but WELCOME
Yes!!! Still in it.
Plz f... u bout first off it was n da city 2 the was songs the wrote 4 other ppl 3 they was being cameos so foh they still got smoke
Meeee lol
OMG...KoKo sang that song...and Lee Lee damn girl why you wait so long to open ya mouth..Lee Lee has a beautiful voice. I am sitting here in tears that literally touched my soul...SWV fan all over again!!!!!
Real tears fr
Leelee coached Coko on singing as we learned during the versuz battle. She use to be a soprano.
@@mademoiseledoshay618 that was joke between sisters
She been singing like that. But people thought it was all Coko. She doesn't like to be out front, but i like that they revealed during verzuz that Lele taught Coko all the soprano techniques she used to do.
@@bluscorpion Yelp!!!!
Coko is a vocal beast! She belted out those G#5's like nothing! Her belts are so well controlled!
Omg, yes she is…she does it so effortlessly!!!
Coco has pipes OMG she sang literal flames out them notes.
She 👏🏾ate 👏🏾that👏🏾up!
@@terrancebond6157 🥩❤
leelee's tone is amazing. and coko was amazing
The way Coko hit those high notes, Auntie Patti had to be proud. Of all the covers of this song, this one is the best.
Coko is just straight nasty on the mic!!! And it was great to hear Lelee blow, too! Outstanding!
🙌👍
Coko is no joke. Jesus.
Nicholas Kastanos yes
Amazing 👏isn't she
Zeroooo jokes!!
Didn't know lele can blow like that, good shit
Right!!
We needed more of LeeLee!!!
@jasmine hill get their last 2 albums. Lelee does more lead vocals and Coko does more background.
YES LELE CAN SING!!!
I noticed LeeLee got the BIGGEST APPLAUSE! People been dying to hear LeeLee sing lead for years....that's was very rare that she the lead singer. Coko's vocals just too much stronger.
@@Eriq7001 ppl always forget LeeLee is the one that started SWV.
@@Eriq7001 Fr. In the 90s she only only sang lead on Don’t waste your time. And that song a banger. Cause them Tenor notes she was hitting were insane.
@@mrdjking26 Nope, Lee sang the belting part on when this feeling, and had leads on can we, can't cope, mystery, surprise me, white Christmas, and the Jackson 5 cover of wanna be where you are.
Coko has a very unique voice and she’s a powerhouse. That soprano is something else!!! Leelee has a very pretty and controlled voice. She’s consistent. I love Taj’s lower register and tone.
Taj sings the middle (alto) . Lee Lee sings the low note.
Yes, yes yes yes yes yes!!!!!!!
They DID this!! OMG, Coko killed those highs but LEELEE!! I knew that girl had some chops. Was just waiting to see. Beautiful!
Yes lord
They KILLED it!!! CoKo's octave tho! Dayum these girls can sang!!!👏
My God!! Coko is phenomenal!!!................
Literally just sent chills thru me! Coko has always had a voice to be reckoned with, & Lelee deserves applause as well. Standing ovation ladies..Patti would be proud! Always will be a true SWV fan
Chills everywhere
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lele voice is soooo sweet and smooth😍😍😍😍 & coko is just 😍😍😍😍😍😍
I knew it was over with when Coko got up LAWD HAM MERC SING!!!!!!!!!! Slayed SMH Lelee did da thang here too her falsetto is priceless sing YaLL! Coko = #sopranovocal
Most definitely! U know Coko was gon bring the house down when she got up!
Yass!!!! Checkout my channel, I have a clip of her singing the high notes in the studio Crystal Clear ;-)
2:01 - I don't know why, but the way Lelee sung "Only if you knew baby" got me mesmerized 😍😍😍
🔥🔥😭 That slide down she did one that “Only”!
Let’s also keep in mind that during this performance, Coko was still healing from having surgery on her stomach and she still killed it! What’s so crazy is that SWV never won any Grammys or any awards from those award shows in the 90’s, but yet their timeless classics are still being played on repeat 29 years later. Ain’t that something 🤦🏽♀️ I just want so much more for them, but they will soon get everything that they deserve and more!
I know that is crazy. Yes 💯
💯🙌🏾🖤
Good Evening You're speaking facts. They were finally honored by Soul Train a few years ago and recently Coko and Lelee were honored by the Bronx Borough President.
I'm trying to figure out why SWV wasn't asked to perform this song with Patti for the 2015 BET awards... Awesome!
Niesyj1 Basically real talent isn't recognized anymore BET is some trash!!!
The performance wasn't Patti's. It was K. Michelles & her team decided for Tamar & her to bring Patti just to show love & support for R&B & eachother. I'm sure it was Patti's decision to sing If Only You Knew. K. Michelle knows she doesn't have the range for the song so she sung what she could. I just wish everyone had a chance to shine for once.
Elijah Simpson I guess but if you can't sing a song right I feel you need to have a seat and stay in your lane. Patti LaBelle actually told Coko she comes the closest to her of anyone who has remade the song.
like I said this was K. MICHELLES performance. They asked her to perform. Regardless of who can sing it or not, be happy someone is up there still singing this song with a legend showing that R&B is still alive. She sung one line in the whole song I don't see what the problem is. Yall missed the whole point.
Elijah Simpson Nobody is missing anything. It was nice Patti came out since it is her song. So what if it was K. Michelle's performance she still sucked and sounded like a man. If people can't take criticism or heat get the hell out the kitchen. If you wanna hear her go to her video and not SWV's.
swv makes these new artist look real bad. some of these lousy singers today need to had several seats better yet they need a Damn sofa
check out me out an IG, lathanreigntree23 I just did my Lil cover of this 😂
Even though they don’t get a lot of airplay they consistently put out good albums
Travon Jones facts king🤛🏾 Several
#Facts
@@jer98om Facts. They received a Grammy Nomination for their rendition of this song
Enough to make a grown man cry just amazing vocals
Now that's how you saaaang a song!!! Coco slayed this song!!! She gave me chills when she hit that high note at the end!!! They don't make female vocalist like this no more. All of these manufactured and autotuned vocalist need to take notes then just maybe might learn a thing or two.
I know she made PATTY proud.
Yes LeeLee!!! And CoCo you are a beast!! So effortless!!❤❤❤
I ain’t trying to be messy or start any kind of debates, but if we are going to be totally honest Coko, could’ve beat Xscape by her damn self periodtttt 😩😩😩💯💯💯💯
@Tondria Grimm That’s not being messy, that’s being completely honest and Xscape already knows this, which is why they were practicing/rehearsing weeks before the Verzuz. Lol when I seen that video of Xscape rehearsing on the Shade Room, I was like “why are they rehearsing for a Verzuz” but then I remembered that they (all 4 of them) are going up against Mrs. Coko Gamble! 😩
I'm still vexed SWV didn't win the Grammy for their remake of this song. I HOPE SWV's REALITY SHOW IS COMING BACK. Dang I miss my girls.
They aleeady have a show that comes on every week
Darius McClain I know. I meant is SWV Reloaded coming back? Date?
oh idk
Darius McClain Ok thanks anyways
+Kimberly Seaborn Sadly, the Oxygen canceled the show and it will not be renewed for a third season.
LELEE SHOULD TAKE THE LEAD MORE OFTEN & COKO HAS SO MUCH POWER IN HER VOICE I SWEAR GEMINI’S ALL HAVE A VOICE FROM OUR ANCESTORS
She did on their last 2 albums 'I Missed Us' and 'Still'.
We Gemini’s are a rare breed
Coco got one of the best voices of this era. She up there next to Whitney IMO. She is completely underrated.
Cone on now. She's definitely a beast but like Whitney?? No way. WH was on a whole other level. Her voice was PERFECT.
@@mrsx7944 Whitney’s voice couldn’t hit a bad note. So you right. If someone ask what is music I would say that the definition of music is Whitney Houston.
Yall tripping. Coko is a secular beast. Original commenter was right
Stop it.
@@caramelhoney29 who stop what?
When Coko stood up it was a wrap.
I'm sorry...but they are iconic. Coko is UNDERRATED and it pisses me off!
It is so hard to cover such a legendary song like this one but...SWV DID DAT!!!! I have a lump in my throat (it almost brought me to tears)! By the way...I saw them perform this at the Greek in Los Angeles. I'm so glad these ladies are back together because they are an AMAZING group. They are worth checking out if ever they tour your city.
Alright now lee lee!!!! Of course coko always shows out !
LELEE BETTER SANG
Coko is always doing her thang but lee lee did hers too !!!!
Come thru LeLEEE ! Yass !
Lele sounds awesome 👌
Holy shit that was incredible
Y'all better stop sleeping on Lee Lee & Taj...them sistaz can sing too!!!
Yes! I love Taj's voice too!
Exactly 💯
I'mma need for Lelee to sing more leads!
RIGHT!
HELLO-RIGHT
She would if coko wasnt in the group she has the strongest vocals then Leelee and tahj
Winston Vincent Absolutely! She got to sing a little more n their last cd. It was a nice change.
Jazzi Hill yeah Leelee can sing i dont really no about tahj cause u can never hear her
how in the hell do they sound exactly the same..love this group
Coko I bow to thee
Beautifully blended harmonies....OMG I did not know Lelee could sing like that...get it! Flawless rendition.
She sung more than previously thought but Coko's vocals were always prioritize. That was until Coko started to refuse to sing lead on everything. Listen to Lelee's part on 'When This Feeling' you will think it's Coko, but it's actually Lelee.
Coko is the truth. ... no comparisons, hands down!
Cant nobody sing it like Coko!!!
I heard her live at msg n nyc felt like a fucking groupie because she hit dat shit live smdfh
Dat damn Coko can sing her ass of. Swv has some tight harmonies. Leelee’s tone is out of this world!!!!
Only CoKo 🙌🏾
Lee Lee's part was subtle but really spot on -- they oth killed it.
Coko did that shit!!!!!! ❤️it this was a good performance by swv👍
Had to come here after the Verzuz. Sheesh. Coko will always be one of my top vocalists of all time. And Lee Lee and her tone, whew! I pray these ladies record some new music. PLEASE!
I'm shock!!!!! Bravo ladies. Y'all made me weak in the knees at work.
When Coko get up, we all know serious business came through
Yup!!!!
the 90s was the END OF TRUE TALENT!
Not an easy song to sing...
SWV kilt it...
I look at their longevity, how much they are Truly loved & I cannot help but to think about 2-other girl groups.
En Vogue & Klymaxx...
Both couldn't squash their differences & their legacy DOESN'T have quite the luster of SWV...
I could listen to SWV all day long🤩
Coko fucking did that!!!!!! YASSSSSS!!! Goosebumps all over!!!
If they ever do a tribute for Patti Labelle at the BET Awards without question SWV should do this song!
+Gloria Jemimah Can you inbox me please?
Your going to have to inbox me because when I try to inbox you it says there is an error?
Gloria Jemimah I can't either TH-cam must have changed their settings. Please email me when time is granted krewtelevision@gmail.com
Lele did her part too.
t
i need keke and coko to duet on this song
Alright coko we no them 1st sopranos Aint no joke and lee lee we here you stop playing👍😅
UNREAL! ❤❤❤❤
I like how they showcase all of their vocals more in recent albums
Oh my Goshhhhh, Coko's voice slayyyyyyysss my lifeeeeeeee! My favorite singer since I was like 10 and still to this day!
Coko!🔥🔥🔥 you you did that!!!!!
Lawd! They are awesome! Go Lee Lee! Always wanted to hear her voice more.
I didn't know Lelee could sing like that. Ok, it's official, they ARE sistas with voices.
Man lelee said she lazy with her voice she can sing her face off if she wanted too
COKO did that!!!
Coko knows she the shit, that's why she don't try to hard. but all their vocals A1.
I know they had a warrant for SWV. They’re charged with first degree murder, for killing this song , Murder they wrote
Cheryl Gamble has a anointed voice. It's literally hearing angels sing.
SWV baddest chicks of RnB group
Coko tha baddest chick period.
Stop sleeping on Lee Lee yessss SISTERSSSSS
I've never had so many goose bumps back to back ! That was INCREDIBLE
Straight chills
Omg gave me chills bravo!
To quote Coko when they do 'Weak' live.... "SANG IT LELEEEEEE!"
sing lelee
Gosh, first woman who really gives a right rendition,to a Patti labelle song....
Coko hits those beautiful notes so effortlessly. She just needs some nicely written Christian songs like Deitrick Haddon and I'll buy them.
They don't make em like this anymore...I miss these types of vocalists
goose bumps tho..u betta SANG Coko..
When people say Lee Lee and Taj can't singj I hope they can hear this these girls are talented all of them PERIOD!!
Miss them!!
Now it is HARD to remake a song period...but a PATTI song...and this one at that??? Yall sang that one!!!
Throwing my whole closet of shoes at Coco🙌🏾🙌🏾
Wow! I always knew Coko could sang but Dam!
Coko's voice has all kinds of dopeness to it .Simply AMAZIN'💯💯
Lee Lee did tht!!! yess they are really sistas with voices!!
What, leelee can sing?!?!
I know right.
@Angel Jonson leelee is the one that started SWV. she could ALWAYS blow. I don't know why she wasn't featured more.
@@mrsx7944 Coco has the highest and strongest voice out of all of them. She can also do more with her voice than the other two so of course she was going to be out front with most songs.
@@mikeharris468 Leelee and Coko let us know Leelee was her coach. She taught her how to do alot of what she does with her voice.
Without Taj and Lee Lee harmonizing the sound of SWV would be different
Coko is really up there with Whitney, Mariah, and Toni Braxton. So sad RnB is not appreaciated from blacks as it is from whites. Coko would sing Adele under the table.
Yes she is
They all can sing if given the lead, in my opinion 🤔🤔💯❤️
👍 agreed
Coko Can Sing Circles Around These Broads & She Know It...#SorryNotsorry
Beautifully Done Ladies
I love them
her voice is more beautiful without a back track
i love them!!1 and I love LeeLee's voice!
Okay Leelee 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 and of course Coko killed it
coko and keke wyatt both do this song justice
they killed. and they look so good; my first time checking out swv [[i'm old school/patti] but you just acquired a fan.
Them heffas sang this song…! Good God a mighty!
I lovvvvvve them!!! The 90's were the absolute best!!!!
LEE LEE COMEEEE ONNNN
Cooks range tho!
