Amsterdam concert in 1968, Aretha's vocal peak, in my opinion

LOL No. A one-dimensional hollerer would be Usher. Tevin Campbell is extremely vocally talented and considered the male version of Whitney Houston; there are VERY FEW who had his level of skill and chops when he was young; but, I don't really take what you say seriously anyway, especially considering that Britney Spears performance you posted . I didn't particularly think that that Lady Gaga acoustic performance was anything special, either, but whatever floats your boat

.

Anyway:

This song has 3 meanings

Boi cala = come my bride

Boi cala = come my queen

Boi cala = come chabbat

"Live Where You Can" from The Gospel at Colonus with Jevetta Steele, Morgan Freeman and The Blind Boys of Alabama:

POWERFUL performance. Cece's head voice sounds so similar to Whitney's I couldn't even tell who was who at certain points ! As for Bebe, he's a hybrid of Luther Vandross and Teddy Pendergrass...
