Legendary Patti Labelle & gospel singer Daryl Coley pay tribute to Michael Jackson. Two of the greatest voices ever blowing Michael Jackson's Will You Be There at NAACP 1993. Will You Be There was also interpreted by Jennifer Hudson.
Much Love 2 U Brother Michael. Today N Eternally. Rest in Peace. We Know that LOVE WAS ur Middle Name. Miss You. Will Always Respect you for the tremendous amount of time, energy N money you gave to Help others
+Xavier Smith I totally agree. This was a gospel flavored song. I love Patti but Darryl IS gospel and truthfully could have performed that song by himself and killed. I say this as a gospel fan of Daryl. Patti was awesome as usual but they both were under time constraints. (It's a frigging award show.) But just imagine if Patti and Daryl had more time and could have cut loose. I mean this small performance was hot; but if they could have 'do-what-they-do' ...oh my god!
+jesushateswood let me know what you think !! Listen to her song "lovers blues". And to be honest I would love to see them on stage together singing their heart out
Just look it his mom. She's so proud. Ugh this makes me cry. Wish he could come back and all the disgusting people would just leave him alone. God bless you Michael.
pat gorden Not at all. Daryl could out-sing Patti all day long. He can be just as loud and bold but allowed Patti to show out, because that’s what Believers do -think of others as better than themselves. 😊
do you know why Michael is the greatest ? apart from being talented he had an angelic personality . His smile never seemed so forceful or arrogant . When he smiles it seems like a child is smiling . He always been grateful to his fans and supporters . During the speech he always reply with I love you more unlike today's fake , arrogant artists who know nothing except show off . World not only lost the greatest artist but a sweetest human being who came here to change millions of lives. love you endlessly Michael .....rip❤
Trust me on this: Daryl Coley is equal to the task. He came in subdued and deliberate. He was being a gentleman but he could have handled Patti with no problem. That is why they gave him the bulk of the lyrics…
But she didn’t sing the bulk of the lyrics. They let her play drama Queen diva, and vocally, she was way off pitch! I’ve enjoyed Patti for over 50 years but she has devolved into Diva Status and even during the Versus series, Gladys had to hold her up. I’m saying it again: she is fortunate that Daryl is a gentleman because not too many vocalists can stand toe to toe with Patti, but Daryl Coley was one who could-and wouldn’t have to lay on his back with his legs in the air to bring the house down!
This Michael Jackson at his prime. The wonderful thing about MJ is he would recognize talent regardless of the public knowledge of an artist. Daryl Coley wasn't much known outside of gospel, but MJ loved how Coley sang and wanted him to do it. Daryl did not disappoint either. We need more of this...
Micheals departure from this world is still something that aches my heart. He had so much to give to the world. He had the best intentions and the most beautiful smile and soul. This cruel world tried to destroy him. He didn't get a chance to finish what he started, and that's just so very sad 😔
If we really honour him, we keep the respect for all choices in his life, including standing in the sick industry, the benefits, the faults, the loses and the drug devotion. It was his own path. No one could force him as an adult. I avoid looking at Mike as a victim - he took what he wanted and was able to experience as a soul. The soul is untouchable, so nothing of the 'faults' matters.
@@ninkaraven4237 oh please keep that rubbish to yourself, Do you think it was easy for him , stop judging because you don't know what he was going through, Hevwas one person fighting the who industry alone.
@@ninkaraven4237 it wasn't his fault that he got burnt, have vitiligo and lupus at the same time then deal with media accusing him skin bleaching then ther other hand jealous people accusing him of serious crime do you think its easy for him to deal with all that without using any medication , if people can hang themselves for just break ups imagine what michael went through having the whole world on his shoulders so don't start opening your mouth about him.
"But They Told Me A Man Should Be Faithful And Walk When Not Able And Fight Till The End But I'm Only Human" *goose bumps* Beautiful lyrics and song. Thank you MJ.
Michael had a disturbing global influence. There will only be one Michal Jackson and his legacy is phenomenal. He will come back, I am sure of it. You will see the flowers falling from the sky and the tears of the rotten people who ruined his life. Justice has not been done so nothing is over. And once justice is done, his hour of glory will ring again and even louder. Humiliation will destroy, break those who hit him on the back. We then hear it everywhere. He knows it. He is patient
I love them both but Daryl could have ripped this song to shreds if he wanted. He was holding back! RIH Rev. Daryl Coley, your musical talent will be truly missed😍😘🙏
@@perryIII That's all I've been trying to tell people.... Daryl was who I patterned my vocals after... Well Luther too... Okay, Stevie too... wait Sam Cooke too... either way... I'm just saying.... let the man sing the whole dang song!!! lol
Those vocals from Daryl and Patti were just insane! Seeing MJs beaming face as he bops along to them was the icing on the cake. You can tell he and his mum were really having a good time here! Ah, the good old days.
Michael Jackson was a good man and no one will ever make me believe he did anything to hurt a child that's what killed him when that happened to him he was a child at heart and loved children's
so glad michael had these blessed moments of support from his people and his fans because what the greedy scums did to him was unconscionable. I also love the WMA '06 where the audience gave him about a 5-minute standing ovation. He deserved the accolades after what he had been through in '05. If you're a fan, you know what I'm talking about. God bless Michael Jackson forever. He was such a wonderful, kind, generous and loving man. I miss him, and I'm sure you do too.
@nemoran BEAUTIFUL MICHAEL All I know is I don't care what any negative Nancy had or has to say about Michael he will always be one of a kind. Definitely not forgotten he'll always be the sparkle in our 👀 and the 💘 in our hearts he's an original💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💎💎💎💎
I was at the World Music Awards in 2006. The audience did not give Michael a 5 minute standing ovation. They gave him like a 1 hour standing ovation. 99% of the audience were there for #MichaelJackson that night. It was magic. 💙👑💙🌍💙
Patti LaBelle has always been my favorite female singer, and brother Daryl Coley is probably the only male that can keep up with Patti. He has such a great voice that touches your heart ❤️🥰!
Because many of us know both of artists and their gifts. Many of you know nothing about Daryl Coley. He was holding back until the end. They gave him the bulk of the lyrics and was a gentleman when Patti came out. Patti was both flat and sharp and inarticulate; she is a legend but she was vocally lazy and relied on her presence and volume and not her skill. We know Patti’s abilities and we know Daryl’s.
Yes , he did look happy! If only he was surrounded by people who truly loved him, and had his best interest at heart! Instead he died from the hands of a money hungry greedy doctor and a commercialized greedy also money hungry music business! Those music industry didn't care about his, health ! They cared only about the money he could make for them! Their"THIS IS IT", so called last video is proof! Anyone with eyes could see the man, not the icon was severely underweight, and high! But by all means work the man to the point of death and beyond! Yes , Michael had lot's to do with his own addiction, but greedy companies and the world in the way they treated him played a part too! "IJS"!
I wish Raven remembered more of her childhood experiences because this is definitely one for the history books, to be considered to represent the children of the WORLD to present Entertainer of the Year to THEE Michael Jackson, and be in the same room as such amazing talent!!!!!! Raven and Bryton were blessed that night, but Raven truly grew up around LEGENDS!!! ICONIC
You don’t wish Raven remembered more of her childhood. If you really knew what happened to her and why she is what she is today a turned out lesbian by the industry they molested that young girl, and I don’t think she wants to remember that part of her childhood Hollywood is sick, demonic and full of pedophiles.
Why Patti came out there like thaaaaat? PATTI!!! lmao... this whole thing made me cry. Knowing what we going on in his life. His people came out and let him know theyre still there and will always be. And we still are MJ. Black History month MJ is a pic of black excellence achieved on the arts
I just think about this song and being a kid watching Free Willy lol, and I get teary eyed. Now I watch this and as soon as Patti came out I’m crying! I can barely watch anything by MJ anymore!
He deserved that 100000%! He was such a hero, fighting for equality so hard ❤️❤️❤️ I hate the fact that he’s so misunderstood...THATS THE REAL MICHAEL JACKSON
Aww the days before Social Media etc. I use to love Awards Shows especially for blacks when it seemed when there was a time we were united.R.I.P Michael and Daryl Coley.
Darly and Patti LaBelle made this song come alive!!! The choir is AWESOME!!! This song continues to EDUCATE on: 1. LOVE & UNITY 2. FREEDOM & EQUALITY 3. MORALITY & FAIRNESS 4. JUSTICE & MERCY 5. LEADERSHIP & PEACE Let’s continue to roll out the RED CARPET for WORLD HEALERS!!! And drag the carpet from under those who KILL any human spirit with prejudice and discrimination!!
African Americans at the pinnacle of our plight as a people. when we honor those and show respect where it is due. True Golden Age in history. #MrDarylColey #SirMichaelJackson #MadamPattiLaBelle
My brother had the honor to meet him in person for an audition back in the 90's and even though he didn't make it to the final round he spoke to Michael briefly and he seemed to be a very humble nice person, which is more than I can say for celebrities today that are not even half as big as he was
...and people have the nerve to compare modern day artists to MJ. Ppl, the answer is simple.... there will NEVER be another! Rip Michael Jackson and thankyou for music that will endure forever 🙏🏽
I keep replaying when Patti says to Michael that she is so grateful. You have to read her lips. So genuine, and adds to the intensity of this entire performance.
Watching this on the day following the passing of Daryl coley and I can't help but imagine how beautiful heaven must sound right now with so many great voices in one place RIP Michael Jackson and Daryl Coley
+ThroughMyEyes... I know you probably heard this before, but I will say it again, you don't go to heaven when you die... It is not biblical...Well... I am assuming that you believe in the BIble, but then again, maybe you don't. Please don't think I am trying to pick an argument here. It's just that I keep reading these unfounded statements, which supposedly is from the Bible, about people going to heaven when they die and I feel like I must say something. However forgiver me if you are a non-believer in the Bible and I just spoilt your day. Just an end note, those who die in Christ await his return, they will rise from the grave, the righteous who are alive will be caught up with them and then they all inherit eternal life (not heaven)...All of this can be verified from Genesis to Revelation. By the way Daryl had one of the best voices I have ever heard. Effortless... Have a blessed day.
junior2404 Sounds like you need to read the Holy Bible because what you said is not even biblical. I would suggest a translation that is the most accurate word-for-word NASB.
Wow, I'm overwhelmed right now just watching this. Michael was our BABY, SWEET, KIND, HUMBLE, LOVING AND PRECIOUS. MIKE'S LEGACY WILL ON UNTIL THE END OF TIME, HE TOUCH SO MANY. I JUST WATCHED THE JACKSON MOVIE TWICE YESTERDAY. DARYL COLEY TOO WILL BE MISSED GREATLY, HIS WORKS WILL LIVE ON FOREVER. MY FAVORITE IS ," HE'S PREPARING ME", SOMETHING MOVES IN ME WHEN I HEAR IT. PATTIE, MS. PATTIE , I DON'T CARE WHAT SHE SINGS, CHILLS JUST OVER POWER ME. SHE'S AS BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AS SHE IS OUTSIDE. WE LOST ANOTHER GREAT THIS WEEK, PRINCE, HUMBLE, GENTLE CARING SOUL. IT'S SO HARD TO BELIEVE THAT HE'S GONE. AS CHRISTIANS WE THAT THIS IS NOT OUR HOME, WE'RE JUST PASSING THROUGH, BUT THAT JUST DOESN'T LESSEN THE PAIN. LOVE YOU ALL FOREVER.
I was saying the same, BUT Min. Darryl Coley was No slouch, and I think he decided...I ain't trying to out powerhouse Mz Patti, so he laid back. The sound engineer def didn't balance their mics, and do him any justice either. Patti's mic was HOT, HOT, HOT, for no reason. She will kill her part no matter what. I'm glad he started it off, so those unfamiliar with him got to hear his vocals as well.
*Patti LaBelle & Darryl Coley* sang this incredibly! Legends honouring a Legend of Legends aka *Michael Jackson* ✨🌟✨ 2:40 Awww *Raven Symone* is so adorable! 🌌
I rewound the video to 2 minutes and 23 seconds maybe 6 or 7 times only to realize that Daryl Coley himself hit that high note. I thought it was Patti, but it was Daryl That boy can sing. Probably the greatest male vocalist in gospel music of all time!
Daryl you're one of the best Gospel singers around .. I never heard no one like you and the Hawkins .. RIP i got your debut album and I still play it ..
