'82 Tonys--Dreamgirls "And I'm Telling You" Forget about all those other versions of Dreamgirls! This is the ONE!

Wow! That was magnificent. I hope for the sake of other performers that that was the end of show. | |

Damn that was a great performance I could see why she won a Tony, but damn what happened to Jennifer Holiday? She lost weight in the late 80s then she just disappeared she shouldve been a R&B star. | |

Jennifer is still perfotming live and her voice is in great form. Here is an audience video of her in New Orleans in 2010. The sound isn't the greatest but you can still tell she can still sing up a storm.

Here's another blow-you-away song by Jennifer:

I bought this album, ONLY for this monster of a song. This album was so bad, then at the end, this song 7 or 8min gem comes on. This is the only song on the album that sounds like her. The rest of this cd is bad pop garbage. This is why she was not a big R and B her voice is so strong, people did not know what to do with it. She was so hit and miss. I love this song and her performance is great, it hits you in the gut. Moving. Thanks for posting it.

You're welcome. I'm glad to see she is still performing although as you said the business didn't give her the right type of music for her powerful voice. Very under-appreciated singer IMO.

I remember the summer of 1982 like it was yesterday. She turned that song OUT! Andy is a four letter word. | |
