Faith Evans Sings to Patti Labelle



Patti Labelle is one of my favourite singers - ever. I was indifferent to Faith Evans until I heard her sing this song, You Are My Friend, in a tribute to Patti Labelle on BET's Walk of Fame in 2001. I was literally in tears at how good she was. Patti Labelle was also rolling about in her seat (I remember that this was one of the two performances that she seemed to get excited over). This takes me back.

@blazing: tell me about it. Patti may seem like real old school to some (like pre-historic), but I love her voice and her songs. I watched a documentary on her life a few years ago and learned that she lost all her 3 sisters to cancer. It was so sad and yet she comes across as a caring, empathetic and vivacious woman. Love her!
