i saw it live on the Today show (I think)

She did a really good job on it. They sounded good 2gether. Did any1 else catch this?

Supposedly it is going to be on Kenny G's "Duets"

I would post the mp3 up, maybe later...if there are requests..

yes it was nice...and lets not post mp3's..its still against org rules..


thanks..


i like chaka's solo song better..it didnt have kenny mucking it up..

Coo! I am surprised Harlepolis isnton here yakkin it up!

I don't know whats worse,,,

Her singing a pop-corny Christina Fuckuilera song or working with Kenny Goofy ass

Ya'll already know how much love I got for that bitch,,,but I feel like punching her in the face for that goddamn low blow

Harlepolis said:

I think it goes to show that she thinks Kenny has some talent, which he does. I'm not a fan of his, but he plays his instruments well and I give props to almost anyone that can play well or sing well. There are too many out their getting rich that are not able to do either.

secondly, the song its self is a beautifully written song.....i cant stand christina but she actually showed some restraint in her vocal execution....and chaka took the song to another level invoking emotions that christina only hinted at.....

its funny, many people dismissed cole porter tunes originally and now they are recognized for their wit and depth.....so, go ahead and dismiss "beautiful"...i wonder if opinions would be different if chaka originally had recorded the track..

as far as kenny g is concerned, hey....prince toured with najee...

Still can't stand the song or the man

Good Lord !!! Someone one on this board has given props to the God awful Kenney G. Bad taste is on automatic mode.

That was just to piss off your ignorant ass! Glad it worked.

sosgemini said:

Agreed. I'm no Aguilera fan, but that song is..well..beautiful. Linda Perry did a great job arranging it. The fact that Christina sang it straight without all the vocal gymnastics is why it works.
If The Beatles had written "Beautiful", the friggin' tune would be worshipped.

id really like to have seen this. i love the song beautiful...although im not a kenny g fan...i really wanna see how chaka carried it out

OdysseyMiles said:

It's a great song and Christina smoked it. It was the only Grammy win I felt was deserved this year.

No song is safe!

Harlepolis said:

The song is a beautiful song and Chaka sang it very good.

U need 2 have u a Chaka break and eat sum Chakalates (have u seen those?).

It's ok, put on sum Street Player, turn to side two and listen 2 sum "Destiny"

I still wanna hear this.

boy, that sounds really fucking exciting.

That's a, make that THE signature Christina song (some would argue it's "Dirty"). The funny thing is that people would blast her for even thinking about singing a Chaka song.

I can see Chaka doing this song justice, but not with Kenny G. Not live. Somebody mentioned Prince and Najee. Prince had the sense to put him on a musical leash and it worked out great-- believe me I cringed at the thought of them working together. If this was a Kenny G project then you're gonna get a full dose of smoooooth jazz.

thief! that's like stealin' the crack right outta Chaka's mouth. or the ointment right offa X-tina's VD

GrayKing said:

What would be the difference if she came to my house herself and watched the tape that I recorded it from? get outta town with that 1.

whodknee said:

It is a Kenny Goofy ass project. Its from his "Duets" album or whateva its called. Gladys Knight are there among other people.

What a great song. Chaka really tore this up.

By the way, Chaka & Kenny performed this on CBS' Early Show, not NBC.

I am ignorant because I don't enjoy smooth jazz.(LOL) I think you typed because you dig Kenney G. and now are extremly embarrassed that you have admitted on the org.
