I wish somebody were around to save this woman and comfort her and tell her how loved she was. When you are depressed, it is hard to receive those messages cause you don't or won't or cannot receive them. To see her in tears had me crying. I pray God cradled her in His arms when she transitioned and shown her the love and warmth and affection she so yearned for in her time here on earth. The author of her biography said that Phyllis had love and romance in her life and that she self sabotaged it because she wasn't sure if it was real or that she was worthy of those feelings. She was totally worth it. Ms. Phyllis you were so loved and appreciated and inspiring. God bless your soul and your family ❤

Its amazing because she and Whitney had the same producer. She and Whitney both (supposedly) committed suicide. Both were loved. But Phyllis had my heart. She had an amazing gift of expression thru song. Alot of people sing. But not many can really, fully express their heart.....Phyllis could.

This touched me. I'm about to get deep. Phyllis was very real and sincere, and sadly - that may have contributed to her sadness. Sometimes this world can be very difficult for "real" people. Back in the day, people were NOT as open about their personal challenges as they are now. In this interview, Phyllis was not looking for sympathy or attention - she was speaking from the heart and her eyes began to water. In todays world, people are over-dramatic, attention seeking and making complete fools out of themselves with no grace or dignity AND they are not even sincere about anything - it's all about attention and having a moment. Regardless of her struggles, Phyllis maintained her dignity and handled herself like a true star right up until the end.

at the time of this taping, Linda Creed has passed 10 months earlier. so it was very raw for Phyllis , i could see her trying keep a dignified composure. Her saying toward the end that when she realized what type of cancer that it was she felt powerless, i very much appreciate the fact that she eulogized Linda in the most caring , loving and honest way. Phyllis can navigate through complicated emotions that very few people can. Phyllis is truly missed.

@toneyclayton485 3 года назад

All about the money...so much that many EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL artists are the ones that signed not just their lives away, but their souls..P Diddy, Beyonce, JZ...I have seen many videos talking about signing secret contracts IN BLOOD. Blood signifies LIFE. If this meant nothing, it would not be done and kept in secrecy. Is money, fame and success really worth going to Hell for? Those in the industry who don't have this are trying to get it. But from what I heard, you have to be chosen..a leader. So that you can bring more people into the fold...JZ is called "Hova" which is short for Jehova..false God and blasphemy. Beyonce has been reborn into Sasha Fierce with a goat's head and pentacle star (devil worship). Kanye is mentally lost and had to pay a terrible dowry..the loss of his mother. He spoke out about signing his soul to the devil and now is mentally lost because of it. For the race is not given to the swift....

@p-jaywade1333 2 года назад

I don't know why that song DOES that. It makes you think about a lot of things from your past; especially living and deceased relatives that have gone on. It made me think of my own mother prior to her passing because I'd hear it in the car when we were on our way home and I'd get sad about it.

Her sensitivity is so moving! Water Sign people are natural empaths... They are able to see and feel deeply into the human condition. Cancers, Pisces, & Scorpios all have that ability. They can read the unspoken and unseen as well as what's presented outwardly. Rest In Peace Phyllis Hyman
