WOW!!! Just Speechless and That Voice!! and Can We Talk About The Arrangement With The Full Orchestra and Background Singers. So Im Gonna Leave This Comment Right Here So When Someone Likes It, I'll Get a Notifaction and Come Right Back and Listen Again and Again.... :)
Great vocal, and 36 years later even holds the big note longer than on the original recording. Not even the fringe getting into her eyes puts her off her sassy Bird Of Paradise stride! Sweetest spot - the 5-note run and then the lower 'you've been confused" from 1:58.
Wowsey…. Probably the best voice in whole session. Clearly underrated at the time as I only sort of just remember this track…. Breathtaking. Go sister 😄
Grew up listening and watching her with 5 Star when I was in high school. The fact that this song can be backed by an orchestra is an example of the greatness of 80's songs compared to the nonsense today.
FACTS!! Seeing them perform their routines with an orchestra would be Epic!! Delroy produced a remix of their classic Let Me Be The One during the pandemic.
Some pipes on the Gal….5 star were slicker than an oil tanker spill in the 80s….and Denise hasn’t lost the power in her voice, knocked it out the park, FairPlay to her….👍👌😉🇮🇲
I always loved to hear this song ever since it was released, and Deniece sound great as always, but the difference is that everyone is pretty much use to seeing the group performance along with that great choreography, and that's the difference between performing this song as a solo artist without the choreography, apposed to performing with the original singing group. I'll always want to see the original group members perform "I can't wait" together as a whole group unit. 🎵 🎶 🎤 🎤 🎙️ 🎤 🎤 🎵🎶
Loved 5 star originally and played their album countless times .. was tough to know how manufactured their sound was because of their image but clearly not manufactured in the slightest .. great voice
Missed the guitar solo but OMG his hood is Denise’s voice when she’s not dancing round she is amazing ! Or as the judge Will I. Am said “ she’s R&B Royalty”.
Naw, most you guys don't understand. I literally watched 5 Star as a group develope when i was in high school back when their debut album "The Luxury Of Life" ruled the radio Airwaves. Deniece Pearson was a total hottie to me back then as she is a force to be reconed with and beautiful goddess now(2023). I remember having a MAJOR crush on her as i watched her grow as a lead singing artist and her beauty increased as she got older losing those teenage braces and all. How she captured my heart back then wasn't just because of her looks, it was her strong and beautiful singing voice that really did it. I absolutely loved 5 Star as a funk pop r&b group, but so badly wanted Deniece to break away from them and go solo long before she finally did. Can you just imagine her working with big time producers like Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis of Flyte Time Productions back in the late 80's/early 90's? Deniece would have given Janet Jackson a run for her $$$$. Yes, i loved me some Ms. Deniece Pearson!
