Get those fools off the Stage Thelma owns it! Wow She really had to hold back to prop these Dandylions up, fully singing an Octave lower than She normally would be. Great Job Thelma!!! Really shows how far ahead of the Corporations Motown really was, Thelma can still out perform modern hopefuls and even Stars. They should rename this Show "America HAD talent"
I have to come back and say there is so much energy in this performance that it should be a show on the road different cities. I can't stop coming back to view this production. It's just, Powerful, Powerful!
Thank you DivasAndDJs for posting this exciting video of Thelma Houston - "America's Got Talent". I remember viewing this finale performance on TV. Wow, this performance was incredible. I adored Ms. Houston's dress, shoes & hair. She is even more beautiful now and confident. I am moved by her extraordinary musical talents & gifts. Ms. Houston brings so much joy to others. Everyone is involved in her spectacular performance. God bless Ms. Houston with many more years of mesmerizing performances!
You are so up on it, I don't think anyone could have said it better. Her song "Don't Leave Me This Way" is honestly my favorite Disco song of all time. Just when I think things couldn't get any better, she comes out and gives this dynamic performance (live) sounding just as good if not better than the original recording. Thelma I Love you❣❣❣❣
problem with the new generation singers is they don;t "get" music. they dont get it. Its not about power notes.. its not runs... its not blah blah ..wah wah.. Its feeling the music and song, the lyrics,, breathing them feeling them. Nope they just dont got it
Je pleure de bonheur a chaque fois que je là regarde cette vidéo. Thelma Houston cette chanson l'histoire de ma vie, elle m'a tellement accompagné. Soyez béni vous aussi. Bisous de Paris . 💜💛🖤💚💙
Beautiful woman, a great theme, magnificent interpretation of this great lady. Listening to her made me remember wonderful moments of youth. I love this beautiful singer. It is unique. Greetings Q. Roo Mexico..
She had to drop an octave or so to allow the non talent on stage with her to try and keep up. Half of them barely knew the words, Thelma rocked it but those fools held her back a lot!
Sometimes "special" versions of killer songs belong left in the shower.... This just shows me how sad I am about the future outlook of singers. Thelma could put in on cruise control and make everyone else on stage disappear....
I loved this, with a few exceptions: Voices of Glory disappeared after the first 30 seconds; Kevin Skinner was way out of his league on this song, and Barbara Padilla looked rather uncomfortable; Drew Stevyns overdid it; and Lawrence looked like he was hitting on Thelma. But the part with the Fab Five dancing in front of Recycled Percussion was AWESOME!! And why was Grandma Lee's intro of Thelma edited out? It's not like she could do anything else in this number!
I feel like she's the Clock! When she said "this isn't the first time you've hosted me," I think like this is what she was referring to Update: I WAS RIGHT
The first two guys who sang with her were awkward as hell and off key, SMH. They should have just had Thelma sing it all and put them in the background where they belong.
Thelma Houston...a bundle of energy and talent, It doesn't get better!
Now that a woman with talent...don't matter what age she is...and stage presence...and moves!
OMG Themla Huston swept all the contestants off the floor. There was no way they could match her energy and talent.
The defining song of the DANCE ERA1976-1979
THELMA DAMNED HOUSTON...NUFF SAID! WOW!!!
I was 12 when she came out with this song , can’t forget xoxoxo
All these women in their "60's"............AMAZING......Gloria Gaynor, Darlene Love, Thelma, Tina Turner, and many others are just totally ROCKING!!

Miss Houston, Ms. Thelma Houston! She needed no help with thing . This clip is so hot I had to watch it 3 times in a row.
I had to watch it twice. And will again and again and again. She is truly an entertainer!
She look soooooooooooo damn good! She got killer legs!
Themla Houston is awesome. She a true 70's Diva!!!
I guess every generation likes the music from their teens. But being a teen (myself) in the 70s was exceptional!!
Oh yes it was.
Beautiful❤🔥🔥
Ms. Houston took 'em all to church!
Emotional 😭. Greatness Amen 🙏🏻.
I just love her! She's a Super Sister
beautiful
Ti amo Thelma
Irish step dancing thrown in besides, great performance! Best song that year.
problem with the new generation singers is they don;t "get" music. they dont get it.
Its not about power notes.. its not runs... its not blah blah ..wah wah..
Its feeling the music and song, the lyrics,, breathing them feeling them. Nope they just dont got it
Too bad I missed this. What a performance!
I'll always love you Thelma.
Que hermosa mujer… es encantadora… afortunados quienes se deleitaron con su interpretación.
Dios la bendiga y a quien compartió el video
Je pleure de bonheur a chaque fois que je là regarde cette vidéo. Thelma Houston cette chanson l'histoire de ma vie, elle m'a tellement accompagné. Soyez béni vous aussi. Bisous de Paris . 💜💛🖤💚💙
Thumbs up for Thelma Houston, down for the kids who can't sing in tune.
Beautiful woman, a great theme, magnificent interpretation of this great lady. Listening to her made me remember wonderful moments of youth. I love this beautiful singer. It is unique. Greetings Q. Roo Mexico..
extraordinaria la sra. thelma houston su voz es como hace 40 años por dios
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS SONG AND I LOVE HER TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BRILLIANT!!! ❤️😍
I LOVE THIS SONG.
Une belle très belle prestation de son talent et à toujours sa voix merci THELMA HOUSTON, de ces enchantements partagé dans nos vies ❤
A class act. She put all the others under the bus with that fabulous voice! Amazing.
Espectacular!!!
Infectious joy, totally engaging performer, gorgeous voice. And I imagine she’s the kind of person who is a blast to chat with.
America "may have talent" but Thelma has a lot more talent.
Well… she’s American, so… yes? lol
That was awesome!!!!!
excelente version excelente
Pure energy and seasoned talent!!
A 63 year old woman shows a bunch of limited talent kids how to do it! Love it!
WOW is right! THELMA!
Sweet footwork and vocals
Oh dear. Get out of the way, boys and girls. The queen has arrived.
😍😘🤗💓👍👌
Toujours la même superbe voix
The opening sopranos were Awesome
Terrific energy. I just wish she had sung this in the original key.
She had to drop an octave or so to allow the non talent on stage with her to try and keep up. Half of them barely knew the words, Thelma rocked it but those fools held her back a lot!
Oh my godddddd, great
She was like 60+ and none of the contestants could defeat her.. I even think she held back her voice to not outshine the rest
Awesome love it !!!
love this
The black guy is the only one that really can sing
Thelma Houston 💃🏾💋💃🏾🌈🥇😜
❤🎉

I don't know who the brother @3:00 is, but he was channeling Teddy Pendergrass there.
+snidelywhiplash I forget his name myself, but this was from the Season 4 finale, so watch that and you'll find out eventually
Not bad for 67 xx
Sometimes "special" versions of killer songs belong left in the shower.... This just shows me how sad I am about the future outlook of singers. Thelma could put in on cruise control and make everyone else on stage disappear....
Thelma Houston = Got incredible Talent/Legend....however the other folks = Nope, totally lame!

Update: I WAS RIGHT
Dang Barry White should up did he not !!!!
Who's the hit guy in black shirt
1:54 she didn't even know the words.😂😂😂
If you want to talk about something, talk about the soulless, off key singers. Dumb
@@Torihope1000 They totally destroyed a beautiful classic.
Thankfully Queen Thelma was there to kinda guide them and steer them the right way.
@@nigma1000 For REAL!
La trovo un po' abbondante ma la canzone e la voce meravigliosa
Who's the gentleman with the deep voice?
Who is the guy singing at 2:30?
The first two guys who sang with her were awkward as hell and off key, SMH. They should have just had Thelma sing it all and put them in the background where they belong.
She should have going on there under a fake name and sang !
Where’d they get these singers? Good grief. SoulLESS.
Qué poco flow el primer rubio que sale 😂
But my god guys sing horribly
LOL
The dancers took the whole thing to a cartoonish level. There's a point where a performance is just TOO big...
The guy is horrible
thelma houston.never fades shes getting better everyday ..love you from the Phillippines
Powerful voice!!!
❤🎉
