@@miystiqueskillz2233 Thank you . I'm so tierd of these baby dj's talking about somebody being underrated its like this the only thing they can contribute to a conversation about an artist they clearly have no idea about
Damien Smith do your research. she has that recognition NOW but the black community didn’t really take to her music the way she hoped and she always dealt with being the light skin bitch everyone hates on
LOVE Vanessa Williams, she is a triple threat!!! Act. Sing. Dance. One word to describe her: RESILIENT. They tried to destroy and just like a monument, SHE'S STILL HERE!!! Salute,
I was working for a marketing agency during the day, Bennigan's at night and played this to death ... I was always so tired! This song kept me going! Thanks, Vanessa!
Love this song... Just introduced my thirteen year old Son to this song and told him that this was what the beauty standard of my time... especially if you were Black...
I’m a huge fan, and this woman is and has made history!!! She is the first black Miss America!!! Vanessa has gone on to have an amazing career!! She is a beauty icon!!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I Love The GROWL In Her Voice..... And We Have To Give A Shout Out To Dres Of Black Sheep On The Masterful Flow He Did... They Do Not Play This At All...
I like how you use it as motivation for family unfortunately too many sisters use songs like this for division instead of unification….. SALUTE 🫡 TO YOU & YOURS
@@lyscott75если вы хорошая женщина -я готов с вами пожениться. А почему и нет? Россия-прекрасная страна😊у меня тут столько территории и просторов.. 😂😊😊
I always have loved the original Isley Brothers version of this song. Vanessa really did a good job remaking it. The collabo with Dres from Black Sheep made it even better. Although this video was made many years ago, it is still relevant or as I still like to say it's still fresh!
Adina Howard. not Alina, and that's when music first started to become progressively risque. but even prior to that some artists occasionally sneaked something kinky in their lyrics. Today entire Cd's need parental discretion stickers.
Who cares how to spell Adina's name? Her music was still very sexuall in nature, just as Prince's music was, along with acts like Vanity 6, Madonna, Lil' Kim, ect. Also, NWA and Tupac, and other "old school" gangster rap records have Parental Advisory stickers on them as well. At age 14, I happen to be a HUGE fan of "old school" music, but I hate when older people bad mouth my generations music, then turn around and try to cover up and make excuses for the old music. Remember, it is sexually charged artists from bad in the day, who paved the way for the Nicki Minaj's and Rihanna's and the "vulgar" and overtly sexual music we have today.....
Its not just about how to spell her name. Its also about saying it right. And the music for your generation does suck. Every now and then one of those untalented fools will get it right, but for the most part shit is WHACK!!!
TODAY IN MUSIC HISTORY: September 26, 1992 - 26 Years Ago Today: Vanessa Williams (featuring Black Sheep) debuted at No. 96 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart with the single, "Work To Do." This O'Kelly Isley,Jr.-Ronald Isley-Rudolph Isley-penned song was the 5th Hot 100 single lifted from Williams' second studio album, "The Comfort Zone," which was certified triple-Platinum. [09/26/2018]
Omg Young Vanessa wuz fine as HELL!! Don't gimme wrong she still fine to this day but 1991 Vanessa??!? I can't even put it n words. Especially the scene when she climbing the ladder!
Yooo that ladder scene I INSTANTLY paused it and stared at her for so long, imagined her looking up at me and us about to do the nasty lol!! She looks so damn sexy, fine, beautiful right there, shii in this whole video!!
Oh my God, I remember our neighbour in Uyo, Nigeria playing The Comfot Zone CD on high volume, and I'd sing along. He always skipped when it got to Save The Best For Last though.
One of the best remakes equally as good as the Isley Brothers but on a different vibe the same lyrics that's what made it hot, Vanessa means God's butterfly and she definitely gives you heart flutters. And the butterflies and your stomach.
After almost 30 years, this 1992 song is back.......I was in High School, in Grand Rapids Michigan, when this song came out...., shortly before moving back to Chicago in 1993..... Now in 2021 in New York City NY, I found it again on you tube.... Thank you very much ❤️
At 14, you were my dream girl...At 52, the admirations remains and you are still my dream girl even after your marriages & motherboard...I love you for sentimental reasons...I am forever more than a fan..
I've ALWAYS been in love with 'Nessa. Always had the voice, the Miss America pageant proved that she was intelligent & she was "purty" too. The TOTAL package which is why I'm one of her biggest fans.
Other than the songs I sang at the Kingdom Hall, this one is probably the first song I remember singing. My dad loves Vanessa Williams and I'm glad I was introduced to her music because I don't know very many people who even know she is, let alone her music!
Always enjoyed this version, and for women it's a great song to play in the morning getting ready for work. Upbeat but not too much, good message. Vanessa did great justice to this remake
Very correct Morrigan . .. I listen to songs like this whenever I wake up in the morning because it sets my mind in the right mood for the day . What do you think ?
Back when music had meaning and used real instruments. no auto tune no computer generated music her music was real. She's a great actress and singer and she was miss America and a voice over actress. She created memories and people my age know who she is and I'm only 39
Man oh man.....this song brings back so many memories......this was my freshman year at FAMU......I remember someone was blasting this song on their stereo down the hall in the dormitory.......song was played constantly though
The only Miss America that anyone remembers!!
SERIOUSLY
It should be illegal to be so gorgeous, talented and seemingly sweet.
True Dat 💃♥️💋
okkkkkk
@HI BYE Kenya Moore was Miss USA, not Miss America...
She showed them what they could do with that crown hunni. ✌️🏾
God was showing off when he made Vanessa.
You said, Vanesa Williams is unreal fine and God knew exactly what He was doing. 🙏
She cute but I’m more into them real Nubian women . She went out of style when the light skinned brothers went out of style lololol
This generation will never understand how DOPE the 90's were. ✌🏾😎
THAT PART!!!
ikr...loved the 90s
Most refuse to listen, they have no idea what they’re missing.
They only know an inkling, that’s why they keep covering 90’s music and fashion

LOVE Vanessa Williams, she is a triple threat!!! Act. Sing. Dance. One word to describe her: RESILIENT. They tried to destroy and just like a monument, SHE'S STILL HERE!!! Salute,
Her voice was silk. Shoutout to the Isleys. Not easy to cover their hits. This motivates me sooooo much.
I was working for a marketing agency during the day, Bennigan's at night and played this to death ... I was always so tired!
This song kept me going! Thanks, Vanessa!
I am cleaning my house listening to this lol! I got work to doooooooooo!
The Original song is waaaay better bruh
STILL the most talented and beautiful Miss America EVER! 💪 ❤😊🥰😍 👍
Absolutely!!!
Underrated- she knew what was going on over 30 years ago.
I love Vanessa Williams she is one of my favorite singers she is so underrated
Nah, The Comfort Zone was everything. And she cover an Isley Brothers song, that's no easy feat.

A song version that even Ron Isley would be proud of!! My Girl, Vanessa!!

I love Vanessa's cover of "Work To Do", she does justice to this remake. Such a talented artist with so many talents.

They Do Not Play This At All...
I had to look to hard to find this. Needs to be number one on her searches. Love this woman. Miss. America and beyond...
Core memory unlocked...ibrandomly remembered this while cleaning with the kids
I’m still listening to this song in 2022. This song keeps me motivated to get my projects done so I can make it home to my hubby. I love this song! ❤️
That’s so sweet ❤
I like how you use it as motivation for family unfortunately too many sisters use songs like this for division instead of unification….. SALUTE 🫡 TO YOU & YOURS

Back when black music had meaning, was less vulgar, and had actual instrumentation you could hear in the song. I hope we can get back to this soon.
Say the god damm thing again
Thank god we have this stuff to fall back on!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Ms. Williams. You are my favorite Miss America of all favorite time .
She’s soo pretty
Aminah A and she loved that blue contrast that brought out her blue eyes she's gorgeous
A certified dime
30 years ago Vanessa W. rocked with this pulsating single! We all still got a lot of work to do!
This gorgeous woman is so underrated. I love her. ✨💖✨
This entire album tho! The 🔥🔥

Amazing song. Happy 60th Birthday to Vanessa Williams! I am enjoying your songs. ❤❤🥳🎉🎊 03/18/2023
She has a recognizable voice she's the brown m&m. Whenever corporate does a new m&m commercial they always chose Vanessa Williams
This was my theme song when I started my first corporate job with my little heals and suite❣️
90s Vanessa Williams was the sexiest
Wow! Vanessa is not only beautiful but a very underrated artist and actress, I have always had a special place in my heart for her.

One of my favourite Isley songs..
Oh my God, I remember our neighbour in Uyo, Nigeria playing The Comfot Zone CD on high volume, and I'd sing along. He always skipped when it got to Save The Best For Last though.
It's 2020 and this song still motivates me! Let's get it Vanessa !💪💯
2023!🎉
This woman didn't need a pageant to show them who's the boss.....💕💕💕💕💕
Isley brother's said yes apporved...she owned the remake
When she first came out with "the right stuff" I was young and in the military, I had a massive crush on her and Anita Baker....
LOL.
AMEN RAH HAD? I still have a crush on her and Anita.. Sade too!
One of the best remakes equally as good as the Isley Brothers but on a different vibe the same lyrics that's what made it hot, Vanessa means God's butterfly and she definitely gives you heart flutters. And the butterflies and your stomach.
Clips were made with so much quality. Ahhh missing the 80s and 90s
AIDS ribbon on the sleeveless vest. Super powerful statement for a black woman in entertainment to be an advocate in those times.
After almost 30 years, this 1992 song is back.......I was in High School, in Grand Rapids Michigan, when this song came out...., shortly before moving back to Chicago in 1993.....
Now in 2021 in New York City NY, I found it again on you tube....
Thank you very much ❤️
She Took this Isley Brothers song and made it Her Own.... been bumpin' this since 1993 ... still to this day in 2022 ❤❤❤❤❤
At 14, you were my dream girl...At 52, the admirations remains and you are still my dream girl even after your marriages & motherboard...I love you for sentimental reasons...I am forever more than a fan..
Should say after marriage and motherhood
she never ages!! I need to see more of her in tv
That is true but at least we can hear her voice she's the brown m&m
@@veronagomez9073 I bought the mug only because it's Vanessa Williams
The 90s were great! This is still my jam and Vanessa Williams is still so beautiful now!

damn I miss the 90's
Me too!!!
Miss Lady was literally famous for multiple talents. 👏🏾
I've ALWAYS been in love with 'Nessa. Always had the voice, the Miss America pageant proved that she was intelligent & she was "purty" too. The TOTAL package which is why I'm one of her biggest fans.
Why is this so amazing?!?
Why is it even better than I remember?
She did that!
One of the most beautiful women ever. I named my daughter Vanessa after her. 💖
Having an early nineties throw-back to this one, well funky and love the flute :)
Love this jam. Vanessa looked amazing in this video. Beauty on fleek!
Vanessa Williams is so talented ...love her singing and acting. Her Christmas Album is still one of my favorites.
Other than the songs I sang at the Kingdom Hall, this one is probably the first song I remember singing. My dad loves Vanessa Williams and I'm glad I was introduced to her music because I don't know very many people who even know she is, let alone her music!
Best choreographed video for Vanessa I've ever seen! Great throwback!
That goes the same got me Kay ... Did you ever get a chance to go for a Concert ?
You get no better than the beautiful and talented Ms. Vanessas Williams. She is so amazing and always has work to do. All time Classic.
Always enjoyed this version, and for women it's a great song to play in the morning getting ready for work. Upbeat but not too much, good message. Vanessa did great justice to this remake
Very correct Morrigan . .. I listen to songs like this whenever I wake up in the morning because it sets my mind in the right mood for the day . What do you think ?
For women and gays*
Can't housewives relate, too? They have work to do, too. Feminists are always shutting out the housewives... smh. Shout out to the diaper changers.
Vanessa a Total package looks vocals.Dance moves .Work it Girl...YEAH..The KING
I love Vanessa and this song! One of my favorites of 92! This jam had a powerful message! Don't die for love!!
She is really beautiful
I remember I played this song so much I broke the cassette 💜🎵
Stanley James I still have mine!
Gemini 64 lol
M uncle threw his moms cassette out the window because of repeated plays!
Damn, lol
Me too.. hated Rick fox so much too during this era! 😇😁😆
Another gem from Vanessa. Love her and her music.
The Isley version is classic, but Vanessa rocked this. I love her version!
Vanessa was REALLY under rated. Beautiful & talented.
Work to do, indeed. That's just what she did in this song and video; WEEEEERRRRRRKKKKKKKKKEEEDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought the same thing Yasss hunty werk! lmao
