VH1 Divas Live 1999

VH1 Divas Live	VH1 Divas Live 99 Strutting through the audience, the indomitable Tina Turner opens VH1's Divas Live 99 by launching into "Simply the Best," proving she still is. She and honorary diva Elton John belt out an energetic version of "The Bitch Is Back," but the highlight is when Turner teases the c...	VH1 Divas: 2002 The fifth collection culled from the annual VH1 Divas specials is a little too genteel. Maybe because the producers are now old hands at pairing up pop's biggest female singers, and they know how to avoid potential fireworks. But it's the fireworks that make these records sizzle...	Ultimate Divas	The Immaculate Collection The naughtily titled Immaculate Collection culls 15 of Madonna's Top 10 singles from 1984 to mid-'90, plus 2 new ones that continued the run (the dirty, trunk-bumping funk of "Justify My Love"--a Lenny Kravitz production that justifies his entire career--and the danceable despera...

Hard Candy Japanese pressing of Madonna's 2008 full-length album includes one bonus track, 'Ring My Bell'.

All the Best There are those who will claim that this double-disc best-of is worth its price based on the inclusion of three new songs alone, and given their smolder, it's hard to argue with them. First single and disc one opener "Open Arms" is a stuff-strutting affair, with the leggy rock ic...

MUST HAVE
This collection is fantastic. Elton John, Cher, Tina Turner, LeAnn Rimes, Faith Hill, Brandy & Mary J Blige were all great, but the reason that anybody buys this disc is because of Whitney Houston.Whitney is phenominal in every sense of the word, performing her greatest rendition of "I Will Always Love You" in her incredibe history. The only reason that I gave this 4 stars instead of a deserved 5 is because VH1 cut a lot of the performances from the night and didn't put them on this cd. This is a bad thing because all of Whitney's performances from that night (which were basically her singles from My Love is Your Love) were great, and thats the last time that I can remember Whitney sounding so good live.Pick this album up for Whitney alone its 110% worth it!!!

Divas.. Take Two
When VH-1 did their popular Divas Live concert in 1998, it became a household name for all ages. Nevertheless, it had so many cheers at the live concert, but a few flaws with the record, by accounts of performances that were performed live on the concert, but not released on the album itself. For the sequel, there were more divas than the last time on the bill. They included such legends as Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, and Cher to name a few. Still, it became a powerhouse to watch. The concert also became a little more thrilling with other people coming in like Elton John, and Faith Hill entering the crowd. The Divas Live 1999, is a sampler of the successful concert that came out in April 1999. Still, like its previous concert, Divas Live lacked a few performances that were actually on the live performance, but not on the album. Last time, the album lacked performance from Aretha Franklin. This time, the record lacks performances from almost every performer, accept Tina Turner and Brandy. Their were so many showstoppers that weren't on the record including: two songs that Whitney Houston performed that evening, My Love Is Your Love and It's Not Right But It's Okay, Elton John and Leann Rimes performing Written In The Stars from Aida and Like Father Like Son (Elton performed solo), and Cher's comeback hit Believe. Still, the live album does have some dynamic performances including Whitney's I Will Always Love You, The Best by Tina Turner, and Faith Hill's This Kiss.It is just a shame that when VH-1 makes these live records, they really don't consider using all the songs on there. Still, just like last time, the Divas Live '99, is a magnificent concert, but it could've been a lot better as a live record. Still, if you haven't experienced any of the Divas Live performances, don't have VH-1, or haven't heard some of these performers before, I suggest you get this record and try the diva experience.

A pretty good list of hits
I enjoyed the show, and from what I understand it was for a good cause. This CD pretty much highlights the show. In ways I wish they would have included LeAnn & Elton's duet "Written In The Stars". There's 2 incredible voices together. In my opinion though...Brandy doesn't really seem to fit in as a "Diva" if Faith Hill and LeAnn Rimes are only the Divas in training for the show.

Divas Rock
I saw the concert, and loved it. I love all types of Music, so the Diva concerts are the highlight of April. Tina got the show of to a good and origional start. Elton suprised me, for I didn't think he could nold his own. I was surprised that only one Cher (solo) track was included (but considering she lip-synched her other one...). Brandy, even with a sore troat, shined, even when joined by Faith, and the larger Divas. Faith herself was excellent as a guest (she rocked on Divas 2000, too), so was LeAnne. Whitney was marvelous. Mary J., though she had only one song, greatly effected the concert with her presence. Chaka Kahn was nice too, as the surprise guest.

THE BOMB!
I HAVE TO SAY THAT I LOVED DIVAS 98, BUT DIVAS 99, WAS OFF THE HOOK. I HAVE TO SAY THE DUET WITH WHITNEY & MARY J. BLIGE BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. IT WAS AWESOME, THERE ISN'T A PHRASE THAT CAN DESCRIBE THE GOOSE BUMPS THAT WENT DOWN MY SPINE. I NEVER LISTENED TO FAITH HILL BEFORE, BUT I AM IN LOVE WITH HER SONG "THIS KISS", IT IS SUCH A CATCHY TUNE, TINA, ELTON, BRANDY, ETC; JUST GREAT!
