I tend to be tough on her recent vocals, but this is good...emphasis on her lower range and her phrasing.

beutiful smark31 just beautiful. Ive watch this clip 4 times. There is nothing the First Lady of Motown records cant sing. Shes got the voice and face of an angel. That clip gave me chills and a tear to my eyes.

Thank you for finding and sharing this gem.

merry Christmas dear.

Martha sounds great with her lower voice. But isn't she naturally a contralto anyway?

She kind of sounds all over the place to me. Is that normal for a singer?

I thought she sounded fine on the first verse, but when she did the riffing it kind of went to pieces. She should have stuck to the melody a little more, in my opinion. Her voice has too much warble for some of the higher riffing nowadays. I love me some Martha, but her voice is not what it used to be!
