The Cosby Show was ground breaking in many ways but most importantly it showed a black family in a positive light where even when they had a disagreement they worked it out with love and understanding.
Phylicia Rashad loves it. The legends have talent. not faking it. its not Auto tune or Lip sync. The Legends stand at the Mic and sing. Ms. Patti Labelle stood at the mic and sang. Awesome!!!!
Patti missed a line and played it off perfectly! Nobody can miss a line and embellish like Patti LaBelle. He's got everything you need. All He asks is that you heed... Patti just sang the everything you need and she seemingly got mixed up on the 2nd line, but instead of getting mad with the teleprompter or cue cards...she just embellished and waited! She also did this on "This Christmas" and it was a hit! If you need someone to sing something last minute and pull it together, please consider Patti. She's a dramatic soprano so no one is going to sing higher or drown her out .. and even if they go a little higher, like say Mariah Carey... Patti has a powerful voice. More like an operatic voice. She can sing over the choir and other soloists to say nothing of the instruments
dameyale royster You know what your 100% percent I separate Mr. Cobsys personal life from what the show meant to me now in my 40's still feel the same connection as I did a young buck...simple times before internet completely took over hence I'm able to respond to you. Different times
To see Ms. Rashad become tearful was moving..love the lady and the character she betrayed and what we as black people needed very strongly at that present time...a wide difference from Good times.
South Standards I like Good Times, but also liked the Cosby Show...I not from the hood (my farther was though) but I understood their struggles as a black person, but I was a suburban child so I related more to the Cosby Show being brought up in household with white collar working parents. But what I understand from my parents Good Times was revolutionary and groundbreaking for its time, specifically in the beginning because it spoke about injustices and topics that many blacks could relate to from their generation and older. It’s just a thought..anyways loved this song when Phylicia sang it on the Cosby Show (a show which was also ground breaking for my generation).
The Cosby Show stands on the shoulders of Good Times, which opened doors for more people of color to be the center of the show and to bring reflections of the sign of their times.
I'm good Pat. What I was saying (which you certainly don't have to agree with) is that this composition is an attempt to "recreate" (if you will) the sound and feeling of a traditional "Negro Spiritual". Patti's rendering was more in the vein of gospel music. I LOVE gospel music, but gospel music and Negro Spirituals should be performed differently. (In My Humble Yet Professional Opinion).
Right?! Ms. Rashad's rendition was and still is very popular, hence the cameras panning to her reaction. Obviously she's loving Patty's performance also.
I am sick and tired people talking about her. Shit she apologized what more do they want she resign as a professor @ Howard University. She doesn’t need them. She is to professional, very talented,she is a very beautiful women and I love ❤️ her and her sister Debbie Allen very talented sister’s
That last note Patti hit was everything!!! Now that's how you do a tribute to someone!!! Phylicia Rashad was one of my favorite sitcom mother on TV. Much Respect!!! God bless!!!
It's crazy, when we were younger and had voice, choir, even when I went off to college. One had to have classical training and spirituals were all we were given to sing. Different times.
@@saraschneider6781 Debbie is no where in this video. That was the other honoree, Janette Cole the former President of Spellman College. That's why the camera was showing her and Phylicia, because they both were being honored. Debbie looks nothing like that. Do your research.
Love this song but prefer the version Phylicia Rashad did on The Cosby Show...with that glorious choir. Patti LaBelle fractured that last note along with all the glasses and mirrors close by...
For y'all coming for mama patti... Can you do what she does??? This is why our people are behind in enemy lines now.. Can not be positive only negative.. Crabs in a bucket... Shame
If blacks would only stand in their true heritage and return to the Most High laws, statues and commandments...The lord will make the other nations serve at your feet...The blessings are on the chosen people Jacob which is Israel the true people. Deuteronomy 28:68 Which were sold into slavery and yokes of Iron placed on their necks and were hanged on a tree. The most high will not wait forever.We are not Hamites
Phylicia Rashad still looks beautiful. They should have had her reenact her performance from the show. Now, don’t get me wrong here. I’ve always loved Patti LaBelle. But, she should not have been the one performing this song. She has gotten too old, and lost most of her vocal range, and ability to hold a long note. I’ve been performing for 5 decades. But over the last few years, I have lost my 4 1/2 octave range & lung capacity. There comes a point when even the ones once the best need to step aside & bow out gracefully.
I really don't think Patti had the right voice for this song!! It was more graceful and touching when Phylicia did!! Her singing was more humbling. Patti was more so entertaining!! My opinion!!
Have you ever thought about the fact that patti labelle is aging like people tend to do? And also she's a diabetic which may have some bearing on the ability of her voice? But even still, she's still around, singing and sounds better than most of the new comers behind her.
I love Patti and am usually here for her, but she oversang this song (in my opinion). She started off great but towards the end she started screaming and squalling, which was a little much.
pat gorden chill. I love Patti as much as the next fan but I think she oversang the song at the end. I know I’ll be alright but if you compare this one to Phylicia Rashad’s version, she does too much

At 67 or 70 she still is vocally incline, unmatched,. and down right ruthless in her voice technique🎤🎤🎤🎤
Phylicia needs to grab the mic out of Patti's hand.

So glad Ms Rashod is getting the honor she truly deserves
Matthew 6:31 seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these things shall be given unto you. God's word never come back void.
I loved how Patti made her entrance hiding behind the choir.. that was dope!

She hit a D6 ( wwoo) C6 ( yooUUUU) .
the smile Kanye gives to Patti is amazing, he knows the queenn when he sees her
Ms. Patti Labelle in one word: #AMAZING🙌🏿😉👌🏿
YEARS LATER, I'M STILL WATCHING & MESMERIZED BY THIS AWESOME PATTI LABELLE TRIBUTE TO PHYLICIA, THE COSBY SHOW MOM! OK.👍
Full blown tears are just flowing! This was so beautiful!
The ending note! She is the high priestess! She knows just how to bring down the house or raise the roof!
I thought Patti overhang! I love Patti but what she did wasn't appropriate for this song. Maybe she can't tone it done.
Geo Cooper you will be alright
Geo Cooper she can't turn down ...and ain't it simply fabulous Ms Patti
i thought she opened the pearly gates

At 3:22 Pat was like I do this for sport, IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL, SIGNED SEALED AND DELIVERED!
Wow. This brought tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful song and Mrs. LaBelle added her special touch which even made it even more magical.
I've that phylicia rashad was in the audience to hear this. Though her performance on the Cosby show was incredible!

It was a tribute to Phylicia.
Garrett Dodson when Phylicia raised her hand......#Canigetawitness

Patti LaBelle is the best Singer of ALL time! This Voice simply Divine and this notes in the end, my lord!
Patti cutting up!!!! gone girl!
Happy 75th Birthday Patti LaBelle ~5/24/2019
I met Patti in 2011. She is so gracious whenever you meet her and she has a great voice.
That moment on The Cosby show sealed the deal for me. I was going to do whatever I had to do to attend a HBCU.
Kim's like, "Sooo people like...can actually sing....like without computers? What is this magic?"
She’ll always be my favorite Female singer.
All hail Patti!
Pattie made me cry when she tribute's to these to wonderful ladies I cried thru the whole song
Happy belated birthday, ms. Patti labelle 75 yrs younger.
That last note!
3:19 - THE BEST SINGER IN THE WORLD! One and only Godmother of Soul! Brazil Loves you legend !
I think she's all and everything in music. Aretha may be the Queen but Patti LaBelle is the Goddess
wow that note at the the end... DANG!
These women are so beautiful. 🖤
That was beautiful....
Patti didn't have to hit that last note like that!
MS Rashad is such a beautiful soul !!!!!.

1:09 that man all the way in the back on Patti's right looked like, "Oh sh*t where the f*ck this angel come from
I sooooo enjoyed this.
Yesssss Patti 🙏🙏

Wow !!!
Kanye is a fan of Patti. He did a great job on Patti's Gospel album.
YES!💓
Kanye was praising mama patti with that smile
Come on Patti!!!!
I wanna kiss Phylicia.....makes me sad when she cry.
Love you girl.
Beautiful ❤

I’m done!!! LOL. No, that was not Debbie Allen. Thanks for trying, however.
The choir was good and patt la bell she is good
Lol Ms. Rashad had to just wave it off. That "thang" get on you sometimes
You can tell patti a legend Bc Kanye is actually smiling
damn
Love Patti, but nothing beats Phylicia/Claire's version on the show!
Patti will always be Patti. Now, we have two great versions of the song.
DROP THE MIC
This was good. It would have been nice if they had Kathleen Battle as well!
3:20
Was that a tribute to Phylicia Ayers-Allen?
Augusto Fernandes No it was a tribute to Phylicia Rashad smh lol
Lamar Wal Entertainment : its the same person lol

Ug she hasn't gone by that name in some 30 years.

What year was this recorded?
MrCafiero 2015
So she was 71 or so? Wow. I always teach my students to watch her.
Silver Singing Method she will have the top selling female singer rethinking their vocal game.
100% right. I often have conversations about her and Whitney Houston with one of my Grammy students. She is phenomenal. An anomaly in a way.
it still breaks my heart just to think about whitney's greatness. i'm thankful we still have patti with us.

Be seated!
Agreed. Or better yet get Phylicia up there.
I really don't think Patti had the right voice for this song!! It was more graceful and touching when Phylicia did!! Her singing was more humbling. Patti was more so entertaining!! My opinion!!
Joe Parish girl bye!
she did it the Patti way ofcourse THE BEST
Girl GONE!
It's PATTI!!!! I was there. The energy of the room changed when she stepped out.
Definitely not. Phylicia should have sang.
Not even close
hmmmmi think I liked Claire's better...….Patti Labelle was too overly dramatic for me.
You will be alright, I know Patti will.

@@Barbe I said what I said I don't need nobody to correct me or give me their opinion on what I said it is said and done Signed Sealed Delivered!
100% Phylicia can actually sing.
What happened to Patti's voice? The power is gone. She's beautiful, and the singing is very passionate, but also very limited.
This is an old video Patti's voice is fine, don't forget Patti has aged so has her voice, duh...

The woman is in her 70s...you do know when people age so their voice dont you?...For a woman in her 70s I think she's still sounds fine.
No shade but they could of kept patti home
I'm a huge Patti Fan but I just want to say there does exist cringe worthy performances but in this era this was one of her best appearances imo.
No tea no shade but bye girl!
Especially when Phylicia was right there.
I love Patti and am usually here for her, but she oversang this song (in my opinion). She started off great but towards the end she started screaming and squalling, which was a little much.
