This is the original. She wrote this song. Jennifer owns this song, hands down.
I agree, Teresa. I loved her original version of this song 🤗
Jennifer Rush's version is one of finest female Pop songs of all time.
I agree Kevin. It is amazing! 🤩
This is Jennifer's song she wrote it.No-one sings it better and never will.I Love this Lady always have always will.💗
Well said, John 🤗

@AG CORAL.. a new RING OF ICE REMIX by Jennifer Rush and Stereoact was released. its a remake of the 80s RING OF ICE. will be great if you can do a reaction to that new one. How do you like the new intro, the echo they add, the beats..? its on iTunes and Spotify, and also here on youtube
@@Didigeneral thanks Didi, I will check it out 🤩
@@playitagainsue thank you. in the germen speaking countries like Germany, Austria, Switzerland it made it into the top 10 early last year. also it was on iTunes download single charts in south africa, and Denmark. the English countries missed it more out.
@@playitagainsue like STEREOACT announced on Tiktok , Jennifer Rush herself worked togther with them and created the new sound. I find it close to the original from 84 . some parts are better, more modern and all ages love it.
When I listen to Celine I start to sleep (sorry Celine). But when I hear Jennifer I feel goosebumps. Nobody sleeps when Jennifer sings!
What a great description, Urania. Thanks for watching and commenting. Jennifer owns this song for sure 🤩

@@starthestarofman4189 hi Star, thanks for the message. I will listen to Laura's version 🤩
@@starthestarofman4189 I like Laura Brannigan's voice, but her version doesn't move me like Jennifer Rush does.
This also reached Number 1 in Australia. I remember this very well, in fact I bought the single for my parents for their wedding anniversary that year. It is a beautiful song indeed.
Hey Kim, that is a nice anniversary present. This is a perfect song for that. It is beautiful..best version that I have heard. She has an amazing voice 🤩
Jennifer is a superb singer, beautiful with perfect head and body movements to suit the song.
Hi Ted, yes Jennifer is truly gifted 🤗
I was a young man then and I loved this song. It was asong that really hit me. It is the essence of good 1980s music.
Hi Pabu, I understand why it hit you...it is a fantastic song. Thanks for watching 🤩
It was Jennifer rush who wrote that song. She first sang that song in a tv talent show opportunity knoxx and she won the whole talent show with that she is the original of that song and for for me Jennifer rush is the best at that song
This is Jennifer Rush song she owns it .
🤩💜
WOW!!!! this was one of my favorite loveballads when i was young
It is gorgeous, Kronmizter🤩💙
She gives me goosebumps and sends shivers down my spine , I’ve loved this version since it first came out .
@peterwiles7953 hey Peter, I completely understand why. Jennifer has a stunning voice 🤩
Awsome song by Jennifer rush❤❤❤
I agree, Gilbert 🤩
The U.S. in the 80s not ready for classy operatic voice
Good point, Vincent 🤗
She was extremely popular in Germany in the 80s. I also like her song I come undone
Hi Achim, I understand why she was so popular. She is amazing 🤩
@@playitagainsue I totally agree 😍🤩
@@playitagainsue And by the way, she co-wrote The power of love as well
@@achimwollmershauser8328 still very poular in south africa. and there was a new RING OF ICE REMIX released. Jennifer TRush worked together with Stereoact on that remix and it dod very well during the last year. it hits the charts in germany, austria , and swisserland and in south africa too. did very well at Mallorca Ballermann
HI SUE, JUST SEEN YOUR CHANNEL, THE BEST JENNIFER RUSH VERSION, IS ONE WHERE SHE IS SINGING IT ON A TV SHOW, JUST SITTING DOWN, NOTHING TO DISTRACT YOU FROM HOW POWERFUL HER VOICE IS THIS WAS FROM THE FILM IT WAS IN.
Hi Michael. I wondered what this story had to do with the song. Thanks for that. I appreciate the clarification 🤩
That version was live, right?
@Play It Again, Sue Thank you for your enthusiastic reaction. Almost everyone who hears Jennifer Rush for the first time feels the same way. She has such an incredibly rich, full emotional and touching voice. I recommend you listen to "If you're ever gonna lose my love", "I come undone" and "Heart over mind". You won't regret it. Have fun.
Hi Aquila, thank you so much. Yes Jennifer completely impressed me with her voice.. so strong and beautiful. I appreciate the suggestions. I will be very happy to give them a listen 🤗
@@playitagainsue Hi Sue, I am very happy that you want to react to Jennifer's songs. In some comments say that Jennifer Rush is a one hit wonder. Jennifer was an absolute superstar in the 80s and 90s in Germany, Spain, the Scandinavian countries, Greece, South Africa, Australia, and South America. Actually all over the world except North America. She had a lot of hits. Her albums reached platinum status and Number one of the album charts. During this time, she sold more in Germany alone than Madonna and Prince combined. The first three albums sold over 1 million, over 1.5 million and over 1 million copies - the others were also platinum albums. She had great touching power ballads but also great uptempo songs. There are so many great songs to react to, but first I recommend "If you're ever gonna lose my love", "I come undone", "Heart over mind" or also "Ring of Ice", "Destiny", "25 Lovers" "Wings of Desire" or the insider tip "Hero of a Fool". You won't regret it and you're sure to have fun.
@aquila_oculus520 Thank you so much Aquila for all of your suggestions. I don't know any of them, so this will give a great base to go with. It always strikes me as so weird how an artist can be so huge in a certain part of the world and nothing in other areas. I understand how they may be popular only in their home country but it is weird when a quarter of the world is really into them. Thanks again 🤩
I think that Celines version is VERY good....while Jennifers version is ABSOLUTELY MINDBLOWING...one of the best vocal performances I ever heard...
@GeorgeT370 great way to put it George. I agree 💯 🤩
She firstsung that song on a tv talent show called opportunity knoxx that show was on tv in the early 80s opportunity knoxx is the old version of Britain's got talent
@jameswarrillow7104 very cool James. Thanks for that 🤩
Jennifer Rush was big in Germany. Her most successful song here was 'Destiny'. But I love 'I Come Undone' even more. 'Ring Of Ice' is a good one too and also her duet with Elton John called 'Flames Of Paradise'.
Thank you, Lisa. I haven't heard any of those songs. I will be happy to give them a listen 🤩
@@playitagainsue You won't regret it 😀
I’m a dinosaur so I was there when this song was first released in 1984 and it was a smash hit! 😂 I’ve not watched your video yet & I’m in awe that you’ve never heard this version before because you are going to be blown away! Looking forward to seeing your reaction 😎
Thank you, Divine. I wasn't really into mainstream music as much in 84 and none of my friends were either so I must have missed this one or maybe it wasn't as popular here.....not sure. So many songs have stuck around for me to learn and appreciate as I got older and you are right, I loved this. She is amazing 🤩❤️
@@playitagainsueI was 11 or 12 when this song came out and I think it was pretty big here in Australia. I remember it being played a lot on the radio but not much on the telly which is good, imho, because the video is rubbish. This song is heard best when you’re driving the car or in a dark room late night - her voice will blow you away 🥰
@@playitagainsueyour reaction is brilliant! 😍 I knew her vocals would blow you away! I hope you listen to this version without the video so that you can soak up her vocal performance. It’s one of those rare songs that get better the more you listen to it
@divinemadness7119 I love listening to good songs in the car! There is just something so magical about it especially when a song means a lot to you and you are by yourself and you can just blast it 🤩
@divinemadness7119 oh I will be listening to this often now! 🤗
You will find several songs of her on TH-cam - among those song themes from James Bond films.
Interesting. I didn't kniw she did any James Bonds themes. Thanks for that Lars 🤩
More than the official video me I like this live, extendend version - much cleaner audio, and Jennifer's interaction with camera/you, her expression, emotion, body language, makes her interpretation of Power of Love more powerful, I'm sure you will like it. Thank you for sharing your reaction! th-cam.com/video/eiFre0FK-s0/w-d-xo.html
Hi Amper, I will check it out 🤩
I totally agree with you Amper! 👍
Celine had to get permission from Jennifer to do this song.
Very intetesting. I didn't know that. Thanks for that 🤩
Hi Sue, this version of the song is my favourite, even though I love Celine Dion. This lady came from nowhere in the UK & is a real one hit wonder.bJennifer's voice is magnificent on this & it was a wonder that she didn't go onto being a world wide star. Maybe she just didn't have access to the right material.
Hey Dave, I agree. I prefer Jennifer's version. It is fantastic. She definitely had the chops for being a big star. Like I mentioned in the video, perhaps she didn't get marketed well which is a shame. She is outstanding 😍
it was only USA and France that it really didn't make the top 10 all over the rest of the world, (also Canada no 1) it was either No 1 or in the top 10. both northern and southern hemisphere. i only think of this version when i think of the song.
Hey Solar, nice to hear from you. Thanks for the backstory
I appreciate it. 🤩
I don’t know if it is still true, but the song title The Power Of Love is unique in that it has hit the charts in UK in 3 different versions by 3 different artists: Jennifer Rush, Frankie Goes To Hollywood & Huey Lewis and the News.
Hey Ian, that is a cool fun fact. 3 different songs with the same name...love it! Thanks for that 😊
@ianlove1215 yes all 3 artists all had hits with songs of exactly the same names “Power of Love” but they were all completely different and amazing songs in their own right. You’ve reminded me of some wonderful music, thank you!
Absolutely Jennifer owns this song. Laura Branigan owns this song as well. Always loved Celine’s version but it doesn’t quite hold up to the other two singers!
Hey Becky, I haven't heard Laura's version but I do like her. But I do agree with you about Jennifer. Her version is better than Celine's but I still like her version too 🤩
This is THE version for me, Sue ! .. Her voice and interpretation is just perfect, and makes me feel the song much more than all the other versions that followed .. It was Number 1 here in Australia, as was also the case for Celine Dion's version .. But when I first heard this on the radio on its release, I actually dismissed it as just a slow, boring, slightly operatic sounding ballad .. How wrong could I have been ??? .. I came back to it many years later, and gave it another go, and I was super impressed .. Her voice is phenomenal ! .. But I must admit, seeing her on the video certainly added to my liking of it 😉 .. She is a stunningly beautiful woman, and combined with her singing, it was a winning combination .. I watched a number of her other most viewed songs, and although her voice was always great ( and she looked amazing ), the quality of the songs themselves were not in the same league as this one, IMHO .. "Wings of Desire" was probably my favourite of those others.
Hi Wayne, oh my gosh, yes! Jennifer is wonderful. Her voice is outstanding. I wish I knew her version back in the day....years of not knowing her version just seems wrong haha. Yes she is a beauty. I understand why you enjoy watching her videos 🤣. I really enjoyed this and I prefer her version to Celine's. So glad I was introduced to this one. I will give the other song a listen and see what I think about it. Did she have other big hits or was she more of a one hit wonder? 🤩💜
@@playitagainsue I believe that this was Jennifer's only big hit worldwide .. Think she had some smaller ones in various countries, but nothing on this scale ..With her voice I reckon she would have had some more major hits if she had been able to write or find the right songs .. But all the others of hers that I checked out were just OK without being anything particularly special, so unfortunately it looks like that didn't happen ..
Yes this is THE Version for me as well, huge hit back then, often played as last song at school dances, and sometimes I got a dance with the cute girl in my class 😊
@Tifoso711 Yes, I can see this as a perfect final slow dance .. Hope things went well for you with the cute girl 😉😊
@@Tifoso711 Atta boy, Jocke! What cute girl wouldn't want to dance with you! I bet there were lots of cute girls after you 🥰💜
Jennifer (stage name) had such a Good voice! She was hugely popular in South Africa with this no 1 hit, had her cassette on replay in the car as a kid. Such a shame she later had plastic surgery done to her face, completely unnecessary :( Also react to Ring of Ice from the same album, she's got pipes!
She definitely has pipes. What a great song. I loved it. 🤩💜 Did she ruin her face with platic suegery!? I hate it when they do this. She was so pretty....what a pity
Hi Sue, in my opinion she changed her unique look to a generic one, that's all I'll say.. Wikipedia says her dad was an opera singer, so the powerful voice was in the blood😊
@@photonspark that is a shame still though, Peter. Yes it is in the blood for sure because I think she could sing opera 😀
She's the original. Celine is the copy
She sure is, Kevin 🤩
Fab Song. You have a great channel. with some fab songs. I would like to see you react to Jethro Tull Aqualung. a great song.
Hu Sean I appreciate you tuning in. Thanks for your kind words. This is an amazing song. I am so glad I came across Jennifer's version. She is amazing. I will gladly do some Jethro Tull. Thanks for the suggestion 🤩
Now do the Laura Brannigan version of this song if you want to hear powerful.
Hey Alan, I will give it a listen. I had no idea. Laura sang it too 😀
