She was nervous performing in front of the Apollo crowd, but after they embraced her she killed it!

I don’t understand why people have to compare people. Just give someone a compliment and leave it at that.

[Happinessawhile]

I don’t know what you guys are talking about... she has soo much control.. even if she was winded or nervous. She still controlled her vocals and voice still on point.

Bro the natural beauty is off the charts. Really wish times were still like this.

90s R&B singers were so smooth and sexy in a very classy way! I loved being a teen in the 90s. They don't make music from this decade anymore.

[NOEXCUSESONLYSOLUTIONSTV]

She's covered from head to toe not twerking or nothing crazy and she's killing it 🥰

[devynadair]

She did her thang, no need to critique just spread love 💕

[stanleymcclain]

She was so beautiful...I remember when this song came out....I loved it.And still do 25 years later...

[kostadean]

No auto tune or crazy alien satanic shit just the amazing 90s

I can tell she was nervous, understandably so. Performing at the Apollo was always a big deal for artist and Groove Theory really burst on to the scene with this song back then. I've seen Amel live in later years and she is amazing.

[Daniel____DiJ]

Still an incredible jam after all these years…

[GeorgeKing-vg]

This is one of those songs that you just can't help but like. It grows on you like grass in your yard.

[firouz]

Next to Jody Watley and Vanessa Williams she must be among the most beautiful female singers ever!
Supermodel looks!

God dog she was gorgeous! Plus this was a all time classic

She's so under rated. I jam to her to this day. I do not care what people think of a 44 year old jamming. She's beautiful she actually sings extremely well with very little adjustments from the AV equipment.

I've seen Amel perform live at the City Winery in ATL several times . She has always been magnificent. She's human and can have an off night, most the time she sings effortlessly. She's still my favorite songbird.✌🏽

I LOVE this song, but to everyone saying she sounds "winded" you are 100% correct. She does NOT have a bad voice, but she just sounds like a regular girl who can carry a tune. As a "professional" singer, she should have better breath control and her vocals should be stronger...just my opinion. To think, people have criticized Janet Jackson and Aliyah, but both are better and Janet can also dance. The audience was very gracious because people love the song - and all the strait guys were just LOOKING at her. She could have sounded like a cat dying and it would'nt have mattered to them. People are so caught up on looks, but honestly if Kelly Price came out on stage sounding like this girl, lord help her. Still, it's an awesome song and the actual studio track sounds great.

I wish I was alive during this time. I would’ve had the biggest crush on her lol.

[djswigga]

the background is killing it, , , , they sounds great.

this song always gives me chills <3 r&b from the 90's/early 00's is just something else
