she sings like she's in a room by herself.this is live no gimmicks no parlor tricks.simply unrivaled talent.sang it PHYLLIS!!!!!!!!
💯
Chilling, beautiful, & smooth vocals & lyrics. What woman hasn't gone through what she just sung? 🙋👍
@Lisa crawford why dnt you have yourself a nice tall strawberry ground glass milkshake.
She was one of the best who ever sang into a microphone. The late Phyllis Hyman was a true songstress!
❤I miss her voice!
Man the vocal control is amazing
Brittney Williamson You have no idea!!!
Sholnuff is for real
Some of the most talented people have the most tortured souls. So sad that she killed herself. Her voice was beautiful!
Kendra Johnson you are so right.! Satan attacks singers and musicians. They have very important positions.
Clive Davis was also her manager. I’ve started to do the math. Not every suicide is a suicide in Hollywood. She was successful and wanted to empower Black people.
Y e s!!!
Hi Kendra , I agree
YEZ SOOOO TRUE😢
Ugh brought tears to my eyes. Love her voice, her emotion, her face, her height, her existence
Me too😢
I absolutely love the way this was stated.
Phyllis never sang with just her voice. It was always with her whole soul through her facial and body language. Contraltos rule!!!
TheRetroWoman80 For a sad song, that bass player is feeling really happy. He is slapping the heck out of that thing!
+TheRetroWoman80 😂 My man was back there jammin his brains out. Neck rolls and all LOL
Nobody, I don't care what your ethnicity, can deny music that jumps inside you and makes you move.
TheRetroWoman80 beautifully said..Im a fst 55 yr old white guy..Phyllis, Toni, Anita, Patti, Stephanie, Regina..Whitney..never again such talent at a time..
TheRetroWoman80 her whole soul
she was so beautiful, so regal and one of the greatest singers who ever lived.
My Girl!!!
Yes indeed
aww man, this is how I'll always remember Ms. Phyllis Hyman. Standing tall, beautiful, and statuesque with that incredible voice. Even the whistle she does here is off the chain. Such an immense talent. I'm still heartbroken at her tragic end, but all the could'ves and would'ves won't change a thing. So, I'll continue to celebrate her life and wonderful gift. As I'm watching this, I realize that she, David Brenner, and Billy Preston (on organ) are all gone. So glad we have time capsules like these to keep their memories alive.
Michael Shaw yes
Hi Michael.
Totally agree with you
Very well said you're awesome. 🙂💎
❤ Phyllis and so glad someone else recognized Billy. Such talents !!!
I love her speaking voice too.
MiamiPush2theLimit Very relaxing and soothing. "Bedroom voice" as some say. I hate that term but I understand its positive connotations.
Didn't get the recognition she truly deserved. I'm a Phyllis fan for life.
Totally agree
Me too Kirk
Amen
I will always listen 2 her music! Over, and over again! I just luv her voice. 1LUV.
God gave us life so that we can have life abundantly through him this is why he gave his only begotten son for our sins.
Repent of your sins expect Jesus christ as your lord and savior judgment day we all shall stand before our creator God and be held accountable for our deeds where would your souls rest heaven or hell 🙏
She's so sad (& gorgeous) here. You can literally hear the *pain* in her voice. It's almost like she's crying out for help. RIP Miss. Hyman.
Her autobiography was heartbreaking she lived with bipolar disorder. After decades of suffering, she canceled herself😔.
@Harlowerayne did anyone find out where she got those drugs from?
Did this woman just whistle in the middle of the song with the utmost control!?! Who is singing like this today? I don't know but there has gotta be someone out there with considerable vocal talent.
Lalah Hathaway
xavier malcolm she IS good!
***** Lisa Fischer's vocals are otherworldly! lol
cool comment !
Jill Scott does
No autotune here baby.
When she starts whistling. Chills.
She did that because people kept saying that was not her.
S k I l l z!!!
Tamar Braxton has a whistle register and is a MODERN soul artist 🤷🏽♂️
Lol who cares this vid is about PHYLLIS Not Tamar
@@MsKali05 you’re so mean 😂😂😂😂
She comes out and takes over the stage, without doing anything! That's enough by itself, but then - OMG! What a voice!
Amen she was phenomenal!!
I was so disappointed when I learned of Ms. Hyman's death and how her life was shortened that it took me many years to listen to her again. It really hurt me to my soul. Much like Whitney Houston....it saddened my heart. I love the lady and her voice.
I'm with you. Listening to Phyllis (and Whitney) always brings a twinge of pain from missing them...
Tonza Watson I know sis..right, me too
Man!!!, I tell you!!...I cried and I cried and I cried when hearing she passed away. Such beautiful vocals, exceptional singer. She was one of my favorite singers back then, I had all of her songs and still listen to them today.
Yeah when Ms Hyman passed I didn't listen to her music for awhile. Honestly it wasn't until recent that I started back. Every time I heard a song from her it just brought back tears and how I felt when I learned of her passing. Still to thus day it hurts.
Phyllis and Whitney are on the apex of the mountain….with Luther,for sure.
now I am 9 and I love this song it is beautiful my friends don't like me lising to old music it gets on there nerves but new music is terrible all they talk about is money drugs and other things like I hate it soo much
+princess j , You have ear for quality real soul music in a time when kids are being fed non-music or crappy music. You keep doing what you doing....
+princess j Baby I was the same way when I was your age. You just were born with the gift of appreciation of music! Blessings
I was 9 (like goin on 10 yrs ago) and I was in the same place as u...trying to find quality music....
+princess j you have an old soul and quite beautiful I am sure. Ignore your friends, you are special.
+D Pettit Indeed.
Her voice was beautiful! That whistle at the end!!😮Wow!
This is one of the best performances ever. And she was also a great interviewee. Funny, sassy, and friendly.
Y e s!!!
With every interview, though, she talked about not having love in her life. It was obvious why she left us so soon. 😢
Love this performance, such a haunting and powerful voice.....and she could whistle!!
As I watch this video I can see the pain in her eyes. I am and always will be a fan of the late great Phyllis Hyman. She had an amazing talent that is truly missed!!
I n d e e d
20 years ago today, we lost a beautiful soul. Rest in love, P.H.
Soliloquy Love Yes indeed, miss her dearly....
No disrespect but she's not R.I.P right now...
+Cookiedamonster1 what are you saying
+Taylor Dillon What the person means is when one commits the act of suicide (or better put: "self-murder) it is an automatic condemnation to spiritual torment (commonly known as "Hell")
MisterR82 thanks I just did not want to picture her suffering and I don't think she is really. But one thing for sure is that we are suffering because of the loss. But thank you for your explanation.
She was soooo underrated smh #realtalentrightthur
Yes she was
whistle on that Beyonce
lmao I heard that.
Bae wish she could carry it like this.
zeeky boy youaresorightangie
What does this have to do with Beyoncé? Two completely different artists.
Y'all always have to drag Beyonce into everything, lol. Speaks volumes on her greatness, whether you like it or not. Completley different artists, completly different legacies; but go off, rat.
I can't whisle like that and she's on key. (wow!)
Remember Ms Hyman was sexy,rich,tall and gifted..please forgive the devil who picks at God's gifts......she's a angel now,and we all still love her...forgive him the TV show is gone😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
She had a terrific sense of humor. What a loss!
I always thought this was one of the most beautiful women in the world how could she have been so lonely and sad.
I agree just.gorgepus
I had the pleasure of selling Maya Angelo,Bonnie pointer and Phyliss Hyman shoes,matching handbags and matching millinary(hats by Jack McConnell) at a store called Roscils in Oakland ca. She bought her seamstress with her I guess to match footwear with outfits. She told me she's been all around the world but has never seen such a great selection of shoes,hats and bag!
That's way cool. Awesome and sweet memory.
I saw her do an interview once where she mentioned Rocsils. She said she loved the shoes and that they catered to larger sizes. I'm from Oakland also and have been there many times. They used to have some bad boots. I think Macbee's moved there after they left. Merry Christmas 🎅
her speaking voice is so lovely
Ok. This is like my 3rd time commenting on this video, but I can't help it.
Her stage presence is just magnificent.
And I know I'm not alone when I say this, but her and Jazmine Sullivan have a scary resemblance.
Really!!! She looks like Jasmine Sullivan
I’m sorry Jasmine Sullivan looks like Phyllis haha
I feel you 💯 on that one 🔥
Judge Lynn Toler reminds me of her.
@@donnatrammell7538 Judge Lynn Toler! Right!
So many performers suffer from depression. Sensitive souls.
Phyllis is not the one to listen to when you're going through it because this woman will have you jump off a cliff.
The authority in her voice COMMANDS you to feel her pain.
I miss her.
Beautiful comment. 12 years later. Phyllis' unreal vocalizing will never go away. She was truly one if the greats.
I agree. I had to stop listening to her for awhile when I was going through a major depression in 2016.
@@billybatson3810 same . I use to blast her all the time and my mamma told me to stop playing her . I told my mamma “ you’re being dramatic” . But now I see because her music will take a toll on you . Last time I played “ Old Friend” I cried . So yeah don’t over play her . Still love Phyllis tho RIP
@@jeremiahanthony5521 Yes, much love to her. Thank you for sharing.
Imagine having to sing these types of songs over and over. It took a toll on my beautiful Phyllis because she was actually living it.
Phyllis hyman is my absolute favorite vocalist, the way that she transfers her emotions and feelings through her music is beyond incredible. I wish more people of my generaion understood and listened to more artist like her, to get an idea of what true talent and artistry is.
“I thought that with success and money would come a husband & kids.” It broke my heart when she said that because if you watch a handful of her interviews, it’s what she desired so much. We love you Phyllis. ❤️🦋❤️
Yes, every interview I've ever seen she talks about wanting and not having love in her life.
@@NEANABUG You could tell she was so lonely.
There was an interview where she said herself : “ I’ve always wanted to be a rich black powerful woman, no husband, no kids “
Be careful with what you ask for 🤷🏽♂️
@@kelfx2853 True. The Universe listens. Very good point. 💯
@@kelfx2853Phyllis contradicted herself a lot mainly due to her mental illness. Funny thing is she had a boyfriend and a 2nd abortion during this time of her career resurgence.
If I make it to Heaven, I pray this voice is ringing thru out the Universe!
Romans 10:9. You can definitely make it to Heaven! If you haven’t, accept Christ as your Lord and Savior. That’s the only way. Sending so much love!
Just beautiful... Phyllis was so beautiful, I wish she had known how phenomenal, loved and talented she was!! She left much too soon 😥😢😭
I agree, so sad she didn’t realize how truly she was and admired by so many...at least by me
I love watching the guy in the white jacket in the back with the band when Phyllis does her break down at 3:30 he's really enjoying his self! lol
Lol heck yea, that's cuz he's on bass and in the classic setup of harmonics the bass sings along with the vocalist (accent wise)
Money in the white jacket is groovin
+Crystal Lott - - - That's what I'm talking about! He got down!!! :)
Right!
+Crystal Lott hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii mommy
Sometimes beauty can be a curse with talent
I'm not even the same, Im a different girl. Yesterday I was somebody's baby, now today Im a women on my own.
Yes! My favorite part. So deep.
dionne I felt that in my soul
I just realize that Billy Preston is on the organ. She was such a graceful lady.
Yes she was a graceful lady and had style.
damn that whistle........
and she whistles so effortlessly !!
and she whistles so effortlessly !!
and she whistles so effortlessly !!
+Glenda Fitzpatrick yes !! ha ha ha
Asiatic OverLord She can whisper so well it sound like she was playing a flute
I pray her heart was comforted by Jesus!
Her weight was up and down as well, I wonder why. over weight or skinny. Still a beauty😍
Kennedy Harris agreed
Kennedy Harris I do not care if a woman with that face is overweight - I still grab her - this artist is painfully good !
Depression.
It was a mix of prescription drugs and depression
Depression 🙄🤦🏾♀️
Its ashamed that artist don't present themselves in such a classy manor as this.
The way this woman could sing! That raw emotion at the end of the song when she cries out "come back to me" reminds me of Marvin Gaye when he sang "Distant Lover".
Watching this does make you think. I honestly do feel that she was expressing how she really felt during the performance. I dont think she was acting. It also feels a little strange watching the whole thing since her, David Brenner and Billy Preston is no longer here. They all are dead now but watching this does make you feel like they're still alive.
Facts! 💯
we will never have another PHYLLIS HYMAN!!!!!!LOVE
To everyone....This is what keeps me awake at night. KNOWING people (not just our own) are going through the most terrible things due to man and decisions. Please take time to reflect on the day and enjoy the sun/rain/snow whatever to get u thru. I pray for all not to go thru the struggle but it makes us who we are. I will stand for all who stand for themselves. You have an ally in GOD.
I love this song. Phyllis had such a powerful voice. Such style and grace. She had a unique style of her own. Listening to this song brings back so many memories from back in the day. :)
Phyllis had a terrific sense of humor Met her my sophomore year of college after her performance My family and I grieved the loss of her terribly bcuz we loved her obsessively and she was a great inspiration to us all RIHP Queen ❤️
A voice for eternity!!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Remember the days when I used to play this cassette obsessively ❤️ Love and miss you terribly Queen Continue to RIHP Jazz Empress ❤️
Hell yeah !!!!! This woman was awesome!!!!!!!!! REAL TALENT
I never knew she could whistle like that. I saw her in concert once. Hunni took her shoes off and you know the rest.
She could sing about Pain and Heartache, and real about love, Miss Phyllis Hyman , you were a gift.
Well said Pastor Randy
This is not soul....this is pain...you can see her pain...you can hear it...she's singing through it...I understand...RIP Phyllis Hyman I understand...Rest easy..
Very true. I have my reasons for missing SUCH WOMEN FROM OUR "BI-POLAR" CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE "AND SLAUGHTER". Just sayin.🤔🫣
What an absolute elegant woman she was in every sense of the word! Phyllis...if you only knew how many millions loved you!
Always here for Phyllis. Magnificent talent. Heartbreakingly beautiful. No one sings a better love story. And when it’s over- oh my😢
PHYLLIS IS EVERYTHING! YESSSSSS IN-DEEEEDY!
HAPPY EARTH DAY MS. HYMAN, WE ALL MISS YOU AND THANK YOU FOR LEAVING US WITH GREAT MEMORIES..... YOU ARE THEE SONGSTRESS....MAY THE OTHER REALMS OF EXISTENCE ENJOY YOU PRESENCE AS WE DID...
There was such power in her voice...she could just hummmmm and it would be beautiful....What she had was a gift...Many have said it was drugs, it was this, and it was that....Well it was a whole lot of things most of all a very broken heart...I always thought she sang sad songs until I realized that she was going through hell in her life...and that came out in her music....she was baring her soul...The gift that God gave her is silent...like so many other God gifted and talented people who believe the lie....Gone too soon, not forgotten and missed by us all....
I live for Phyllis Hyman. She owned everything..everything was hers!
You know you can sing when you start whistling. Amazing absolutely amazing.
This woman was so regal...TRUE definition of a queen
Still brings TEARS to my eyes! Her VOICE, LIFE, and PAIN just pulls me in and I WISH sge could've been LOVED the way she wanted to be... May she ETERNALLY LIVE in my HEART and in PEACE! 😪❤🤦🏽♀️
I LOVE LOVE LOVE HER STILL THAT VOICE!!
My beautiful Philly sister. What a talent. RIP
I listen to this almost everyday ***** that's 5 stars.....
This is PHYLLIS HYMAN in peak form in her musical prime, full voiced, healthy gorgeous, and in complete command of the stage and her sudience. Let today's young singers study, listen and learn how it's done.
She's got such a deep rich soulful tone to her voice, GORGEOUS!!!!!!!
Omg the whistle did it for me😳😳😍😍 such a great voice and artist! She owned that stage!!!!
Just BADD as they will ever come
I swear, 30 yrs. later and you can still hear her pain. Hers is so very tragic, so very sad. She was so stunning. She had such power, such control in her voice. There's been nobody like her since.
I had such a crush on this goddess as a young man. When I heard that she passed, I couldn't listen to her recordings for a long time.
" Rest in power Queen! "
Talent like this now-a-days? Nah...
unsung brought me here I'm in love with her voice she's definitely an inspiration to me
Gives me chills every time I watch it!!She whistled with just as much passion as she has when she sings...it's amazing to watch!
Phyllis Hyman is the best singer on Earth that I ever heard. I love her songs.
Oh GOD! She was soo PRECIOUS AND NEVER KNEW HOW MUCH SHE WAS LOVED!
Had the blessing of seeing Ms Hyman live at Yoshi's in Oakland in the early '90's and was absolutely blown away by her entire performance. Her presence, her charisma, her voice, her whistling (jaw-dropping) will always be with me. Thank you for posting this video! Rest in peace and power, Phyllis Hyman, you are missed!!
The one the best singer's that ever graced the stage and beauty that none could compare she was breath takinly beautiful in person. Rest Queen!
That moment when she's already slaying this ish up, down and sideways and serving absolute emotions....and then she drops that whistle. ON. KEY. This is flawless. I said FLAW. LESS.
Them heifers in the audience better STAND UP AND CLAP!
This song was beautiful, no doubt. But I can't help but think that it was an out cry for help. So sad
it is so hard living alone when you lose that special love we all can think it in memory of the beautiful woman that was a part of your life
Now this is live! She sounds just like the record! 💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Such a beautiful and talented lady. Her voice was so awesome. she really didn't know how many people's lives she touched. Gone too soon. I love you Phyllis
Happy B'day Phyllis - Amazing how she just popped that Whistle out....Amazing Talent.... hope to see you at the Crossroads...RIP
Phyllis Hyman was a classy, beautiful, and talented, and woman. Her music will live on forever. RIP Mrs. Hyman. She dress with class and grace.
Tears, tears and more tears!!! This is a true talent . These kids today need to learn from the best. These artists today are just a joke.
Literally in almost every interview she mentioned being single with no kids .. She really wanted her own happy family. 💔 that would have saved her life.
That bass player in the back is giving me too much jokes XD 3:48
That bass player is my hero.
mlovmo indeed. This add even more class to that fabulous performance of Phyllis, especially the peak at 4:13 its crazy.
now that wasnt no lip sync that girl sang that song n damn good
Never realized how powerful her voice was. Good harmonic control
If you could have realized the world needed you; for the jewels I saw in you embodied that of a beautiful, gracious lady with a voice like no other. You are truly missed.
i will always love phyllis hyman songs we will always miss her.
She sings the truth .
DAMN I MISS PHYLLIS!!!!!
I love you phyllis!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing your story!!!!!!! Depression is a demon that can attack us all!!!! You shined a light on the issue god bless you!!!!!! You saved my life
This goes straight to my soul.
Hand down the best jazz singer👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯
This has got to be one of the best live performances on American television.
I will go to my grave sayin that phyllis Hyman was one of my favorites I remember mom singing this when I was a child
