- From the 1960s through to 2016, some highlights of Dionne's live performances - one of the most under-rated popular singers I can think of, but an absolute powerhouse when she wanted to be.
The performances are in chronological order, and each is dated.
We gotta stop saying Dionne sounds like Whitney and start acknowledging that Whitney sounded like Dionne
Right!!! Really No one is like Ms. Dionne. Whitney immulated as much as she could for good reason, but Ms. Dionne is the true master, period!!!
I’m just coming to terms with this FACT! Whew, Dionne is magnificent!!
Amen
Whitney didn’t sound like Dione neither. She was influenced ofc but then students can surpass their teachers and Whitney did just that.
Amen! Truth!
Dionne was the original pop diva, her accolades are immeasurable. She has never received the credit she is due (in my opinion).
I concur
She damaged her own legacy tying herself to the now defunct Psychic Friends network. Her appearace on Celebrity Apprentice didn't help. In addition, her tendency over the past couple of decades to make public appearances dressed like a bag lady are unfortunate.
@@direfranchement chill out yo
Where’s her Kennedy Center Honors, way way overdue 😤 A career spanning 60 years and not been recognised yet - a damn shame!!!! Someone needs to spearhead the campaign for Ms Warwick to be given her Honors whilst she is still with us. I mean she should be a top priority and as much as I love Cool J and co. , Ms Warwick should have been awarded ages ago, before the recent recipients.
@@direfranchement 💚💜 BACK IN THE 70's MY MOM RETURNED FROM THE U.S WITH DIONNE'S WARWICK "I WILL NEVER FALL IN LOVE AGAIN" FULL ALBUM.
I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH THEN, BUT WHEN I HEARD THE RANGE OF HER VOICE (SOFT OR SOMETIMES POWERFUL), HER WAY TO DELIVER THE NOTES AND THROUGH HER "FEELING", SHE COULD TOUCH MY SOUL...
I BEEN A FAN SINCE THEN WHEN I WAS ONLY 8 YRS. OLD!
SHE HAS ALL MY RESPECT AND ADMIRATION. I CELEBRATE HER UNIQUENESS. TRULY ONE OF THE GREATEST EVER.✨
Wow! This is where Whitney got all those technical singing from. Dionne was a power belted. Her rolling vibrato and breath control. This is great. I guess it runs in the family. Cissy, Dionne and Whitney were all power houses.
All 3 were raised as "Church Girls".🌟🌟🌟
it's sad that the current generation will never know how crazy her voice used to be.
I'm the current generation and I always thought people just like how her voice sounds I always she was so plain but WOW the powerhouse vocals really run in the family
MrSoulshock44 I can't even put it into words Just how amazing she and Whitney were in their Time
MrSoulshock44 Agreed!!!!
MrSoulshock44 Yes we will......by watching videos like this.
@@lordvoldemort5725 mainstream media will never show things like this. That's what i meant. And very few young people even care to check
Its crazy how she drops the mic to her knees and you can still hear her voice.
Eli Houston-Winans exactly when most singers have to damn near kiss the mic
Where was the mic in the first video???
damn So technically Dionne Warwick was the Original "VOICE" before her baby cousin Whitney
Tim Thomas yes. Dionne the original. Whitney the next generation.
Tim Thomas i agree!! DIONNE was her master i instructor. Whitney probably was backstage saying "mm mm im going steal that, mm I am take that, and im do that watch me, lol!!!
Thank you!!! And how could you not be great if this was your role model??
Yesss
Crazy because her voice lasted longer than Whitney’s
Wow!! Dionne Warwick had that sneak up and blow you away power in her voice but could also be so subtle. So very impressed Ms. Warwick.
Great description
One of the best vocalists ever! : )
Whitney Houston best
@@kauanhalexsanderassis3111 they said one of the best.
@@kauanhalexsanderassis3111dionne was better
Dionne warwicks vocal approach is like this fancy food your willing to pay 500 bucks for a bite
A true VOCALIST! She never goes overboard with all the unnecessary over singing that her counterparts like to do. Her voice is so strong all she does is sings correctly and pure from her chest and it ALWAYS shines
Only a true fan could have assembled these peak moments for other fans to enjoy. Thank you! Dionne was the Queen of Cool on wax, but known to blow the roof off in her live show!
There are some records in which she really showed her range, even in the early Scepter years. Records like "I Cry Alone", "There's Always Something There to Remind Me", "You're My World", "You're Gonna Hear From Me", "What's Good About Goodbye", her recording of "Do Right Woman, Do Right Man", "Where Would I Go", as well as recordings from "The Magic of Believing", the LP she did with The Drinkard Singers.. Her singles tended to be more Adult Contemporary, but her albums always contained showcase numbers.
MH Plummer Her lives performances are phenomenal but so underated!!
Okay after a few videos this one included, I quickly came to understand why Whitney always referenced Dionne as one of her greatest inspirations. I can totally hear it...and see it. . Didn't know Dionne had a voice like this! My mind is completely 🤯🤯🤯
Ms . Warwick blows the house down when ever she sings❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
I saved and saved to buy a double album by Dionne Warwick in high school. Life long fan.
I'm just starting to understand her legacy now. Whitney not only is related to her but you can clearly hear the influence on her vocal style.
The singing talent in that one family is off the charts.
Thru 5 generations all i heard was Dionne, Tammy Wynette, Whitney, Brenda Lee, the Manhattans etc. Our home and family was surrounded by these lengends and i am so thankful that even tho some arent here w/us today, these old vids allows us to recapture the "good ole days" and yes when they were at their primes, but mostly i appreciate their style, voices of course, performance and best yet their music! They have done their time and altho they may not have the same tunes, like before, it dont matter, cuz like every employment....we all retire one day! So appreciate the impact they once made and be gateful for these legends!
Dionne Warwick is an absolute and beautiful vocal monster and an absolute and extremely powerful powerhouse that is totally underrated clearly.
Whitney has some tinge of Dione's style and texture.
You can see such a strong physical resemblance to Whitney on the second song, Smile on Your Brother. Dionne is one of my favorite singers.
I have been listening to Ms. Dionne since I was a small child. Her tone and style are so different from the rest. I love the way she changes the melodies, too.
Kid Enriquez yep!!! Dionne is the greatest interpreter ever!!!
She's got such a distinctive voice, that you would think she couldn't those notes as strong as she did.
Has anyone ever realized how similar Whitney Houston was to her.? This shows where Whitney got her talent from Dionne actually wasn't just an interesting voice she was a powerhouse
She got her damn talent from her mother. She sounds like her mother and Dionne.
Edward Wheeler True! People need to search TH-cam for Cissy Houston. Then they'd know where Whitney got her talent!
+buddhaman4518
Cissy is fucking awesome and had better technique to me in certain areas...especially in her mix.
yea Of Couse She Idolized Dionne all her life she really looked up to her and of Course her mother especially.
De'Jhaun Bercy yep Whitney certainly did!!
Dionne is a vocal MASTER !!
Absolutely 💯
I never knew Dionne could sing like this 😳😳😳
Me neither! I’m fascinated!!
What?
Wow! Every time I see this, it's like the first time. In her prime she was a VOCAL BEAST. And the nuances in her vocal style is her signature.
BEAST!!!! And it’s a shame cause those of us born late 80’s and after know her Deja Vu and post. We think of her as the elevator music singer and she was a true MONSTER
I had no idea her range and power her voice once had. I have new respect for her legend status.
Same! Had no idea.
That's what I call a real Superstar. She's got the whole package.
In an age with no auto-tune, her pitch was absolutely amazing. Never heard her hit a wrong note.
Dionne was trained as a gospel soprano she had a very big range and could sing in the rafters if needed
This woman looks fantastic in everything she wears, and SHE CAN HOLD A NOTE!. Her and Burt are magic together ❤️
If you haven't seen it already, her performance with Burt Bacharach at the Rainbow Riom on TH-cam is fantastic
I love this lady, she’s been in my hearing senses all my life, fro being a kid listening to my parents playing her records, to me playing her records, buying my own records of her then the cds, people use to laugh at me listening to her, well those people aren’t around but Dionne is and always will as long as I live. Her voice is bliss! Saw her in concert, still great at 81. Still belts them out as good as she did when she first started out. ❤️
Stylish singing, Phrasing, range, heavy n soft voice,can go soprano n low note so well.Wow great singer Ms.Dionne ....Classy ,tuk her to arenas where no black women did!!!!! Big fan from Bangalore India
Simply the best singer who ever lived.
Absolutely!!!
You bet!
I've had the privilege to watch her concert when I was just 15. That was back in 2010. She did not sound as good as she used to but still she's Dionne Warwick. My dad is a big fan of her. Her son had an amazing voice as well!!!
The Lady with the unique class, style and singing voice. Timeless artist.
You can see where Whitney (genetically speaking) got her pipes. However there is divinity to her voice as well. For that reason Whitney will always be my favorite, but look at Dion doing her thing! ❤
I hear Whitney AND Cissy. Wow. They family is gifted
That moment when she was on American Idol, I remember that one. I was so full of joy seeing and hearing her! American Idol was so good, the original run for the first 8 seasons.
She was a truly fearless vocalist in her prime! She attempted and often accessed so many impressive notes.
At the 2nd song she was singing around the :52 mark, I can DEFINITELY hear pure, sho'nuff "Whitney" in her voice. That clarion, strong, yet innocent clarion brightness of tone that was Whitney's trademark definitely came from Auntie D.
You should have included her Promises, Promises performance for folks to see how insane her voice was. Drop an artist of my generation who could give "Promises, Promises" justice. I doubt there is.
Jazmine Sullivan
@You're D'One no I know. Go play w/ somebody else
she sounds like cissy houston on some of these notes
Allison Longmore that voice or tone does run in the family
+Tim Thomas it sure does
+Tim Thomas very talented family
+Allison Longmore in my opinion whitney sounds like a mixture of dionne and cissy... i mean her technique, power, control, headvoice came from cissy Houston. But the clarity and voice quality came from Dionne. Whitney sounds exactly like her mother but she has a heavier tone like Dionne
@@allisonlongmore8810 true
she as aged llike a fine wine.
Wow! I never knew how powerful her voice was. I’ve only ever heard her lower register in recent times. It’s quite rare you see singers maintain their range and power. Patti Labelle is the only one I can think of.
I look up to singers like WHITNEY Houston and Dionne Warwick
Original Queen of pop! No one could approach standards like her!
Just simply incredible!!! There are so many beautiful live performances of Dionne!!! You can't even choose. Her recordings were always great!!! But Live her live performances are like no other, iconic and unbelievable!! She takes you not ONLY for a ride but a JOURNEY!!!!!
I would not rate her as underrated. She has had her ups and downs. But she is an iconic Idol. She has made her place in the entertainment world, with her god given voice.
And she was exotic and beautiful
Dionnes voice is so unique and full of different qualitites. omg in her younger years her voice was so bright and clear, that version of somewhere was as clear and bright as barbra streisands, and they're two different voice types. But then we also have the dark and really dramatic passages. A chameleon and yet she has a signature sound.
What a marvelous entertainer.
Wish I had listened to her as a teenager.
Ms. Warwick, you always exuded such class and elegance. Love that about you.
Whitney kind of sounds like if you merged Dionne and Cissy’s voices together, except with a more clear tone to it
Benjamin Ramirez well put
Dionne was the best of her era. IMHO, of course.😉🎶
From 30 seconds until about a minute, wow straight amazing! I never knew Dionne had all of this! One of the greatest of all time! Whitney was definitely influenced by her
A. Gonzalez sup stud
A. Gonzalez yes she definitely was. You just hear how similar their tones were.
A. Gonzalez Dionne is one those singers to give you whatever the need is called for thru record or concert. Simple as that for her, lol. She is the master of the real deal!!!
Go Dionne, go girl, no one can and will ever filled uour shoe. Your clssical voice will be here evrm after ee are gone.
Yep no one!!!
wow, the orange jumpsuit moment was stunning. 4:30 and on moment sounds JUST like Whitney.
I had no clue her chest voice was so stunning. great video!
I'm over here floored.
+Edward Wheeler Lol....i knew she could blow but rarely showed it. Checkout her live version of Stevie's All Is Fair In Love from 1975....it made me(a grown man)cry!!!!!
VaunTV wat song was that
What song was she singing there?
@@TheHipHopCulture. I'll Never Love This Way Again.
One of the best vocals in my lifetime...👌
DIONNE WARWICK, A RAINHA! THE QUEEN!!!
I never knew it before but after watching a few if her videos Ms. Dionne was a vocal beast, i never seen someone sing a high note soft or sing with the mic by their waist but it sounds like they are holding the mic to their mouth.
I wish there are type of songs and vocalists exists today... Singers today sings about curses and tits. Diva Dionne!!! Thank you for the compilation ❣️
Ms. Warwick, I knew you could really sing but this video is blowing me away. Wow!!!! This is a super treat for me.
I can hear so much of prime Whitney Houston in her upper belts. So pure and clean and powerful!!
You mean you can hear Dionne in Whitney's prime belts..💅
It seems to me that Dionne rarely showed more than half of her full range and power on her recordings. It's so strange to me that she's known as a singer with an exclusively smooth, intimate style but then she comes out live and belts huge soprano notes! Does anyone know why she chose not to use her full voice on her recordings?
In those days, they wanted black artist to have a white sound. I myself had no idea Dionne had such a chest voice.
Her producing team was Hal & David 2 White men so that may have a lot to do with it but if you put in order to get that Power you really gotta see her live
i agree, i appreciated that work, thought she was great but wasn't aware of her range.
Burt wanted someone who will interpret his music the way it is. And they won the lottery finding dionne. Its really the best, because Bacharach melodies are perfect as is.
To be more palatable to white audiences on record for the companies
Absolutely one of the greatest vocalist to ever do it, just awesome!
I was just wondering why does she have one of the greatest voices of all time then I remembered she's cousins with Whitney Houston! it runs in the family!!!
Dionne came first. They are following behind Dionne, not the other way around.
Edward Wheeler I didn't say anything like that now did I? All I was saying was it makes perfect sense why she is a great singer. Because it runs in their family.
+Dante E and Im saying that it makes perfect sense that Whitney had a nice sound because it runs in the family. It started with her mother and cousin.
Edward Wheeler We both agree lol
Dante E sup sexy
Great job on the video of pitch perfect Dionne Warwick...
Total class. Always.
I absolutely love Dionne
Whitney was on record saying she listened to a LOT of Dionne, Chaka and her mom. Those were her main influences and in a way we have to credit Dionne as much as Cissy for the vocalist that Whitney became. Whitney borrowed a lot of of mid register and belts from Dionne and that crystal clear head voice from her mom.
Where are my edges? Oh, she snatched them.
Classic Dionne thru the years. Thanks for posting.
I always knew she was first before a lot of Woman singers !!!! The true Queen!!!!!❤
🙌今頃見つけました。ディオンヌワーウィックの歌声💘 素晴らしい
Hey people. All this powerhouses Whitney, Cece winans, Dionne warwick, Deedee warwick were very influenced by Cissy houston. Have you ever listened to her? She's is definetly what a powerhouse singer must be.
Dionne style is very different from Cissy. Let's not forget Dionne was a musical director.
Cissy is very different from Dionne. Cissy was was way more heady and operatically shrill where Dionne had a mid chest grounding to her tone. As far as Cece Winans that’s all her mother Mom Winans. She sounds so much like her own mother not Whitney’s.
The clip at 5:12 reminds me so much of Whitney Houston.
AmbioAuora Sooth sound like “how will I know” - (Whitney Houston ) OMG!! Nippy seems look like Dionne more
Yesssss , me too !!!! Similar song hhahaha
Wow. You did a great job in putting this together.
DionneWarwick CAN SING TO ME ANY DAY! NOT BAD FOR A ONE TIME BACK-UP SINGER!
What a Control, incredible!!!
She sounds so much like Whitney in some parts
more like Whitney sounded like her
roter13 right! Cause Dionne was the 1st family Star
Serafini Gaunt whitney sounds like Dionne😁😁
...brilliant! ❤
RESONANCE IS CRAZY!!!
I'm late but let me say YESSSSS!
I love you Dionne!
I really like that duet she did with Luther Vandross.
Me too, she really let loose.
Me too, she really stood in the same spot and ATE THAT MICROPHONE.
One of the greatest ever!!
The best of the the best.
A melhor SEMPRE,QUE LUZ !!!
These clips are definitely not in chronological order but great clips lol don't sleep on dionne lol
Amazing compilation video! All it's missing is the 1986 "Battle Hymn of the Republic" performance
VOZ MARAVILHOSA! SEMPRE!
a truly remarkable woman. wolfen
5:16 So which came first, this song or “How Will I Know” by her cousin Whitney because the songs are twinning!
Who's Zoomin' Who is Aretha Franklin's song. It was released on the same year but How Will I Know came out 4 months later. It's produced by Narada Michael Walden
She always had a beautiful songbird voice to me but Damn does this songbird have claws! I never knew she could blow the roof off with her vocals! Did her voice get damaged or something during one period of her career?
Martin x age
Martin x Age and smoking but she had a nice voice for about 40 years of her life
Starting smoking but her voice naturally aged. She was a very consistent vocally.
I think it's more of age and smoking
That SOAR at 2:12!!!
Whitney sounded like her so much! Dang, that soar!❤
Even the gestures dang!
@@oldsoul_anth243 Right!! you can tell that Whitney studied her cuz. Dionne was extraordinary!!
@@landocalrisian2014Can you tell me the original video of this performance pleaseeeee
@@oldsoul_anth243 Sorry I don't know but she was great. I knew Dionne was good when I was a youth but seeing these performances, is WOW!!
Love this woman!
Pure Magic!!!
she always had short hair quite remarkable..
Coz girls with elongated bodies look beautiful with short hair. Look at Whitney.
329th Commented 💙 : We're back again to this video.
She was not underrated. she got to go places where other black women hadn't been. she is just modest and she does not talk about it like her other partners in the business.The 70's really put a hurting on her also because she just could not score a hit to save her ass for about 10 years. But by the late 79 she was back! She really is amazing and is a real legend.
Ron Williams Well she was pregnant in the beginning of the 70s & late 60s so I guess that gave her time to spend with her kids
