Remember… Miss Dionne Warwick was a back up singer first… her ear is impeccable. Gorgeous harmonies, gorgeous…and it seemed very unrehearsed and natural. Just perfect.

my favorite Dionne song: A House Is Not A Home
I like how Dionne never tries to "out-sing" her guest; she doesn't mind singing background; and she doesn't mind giving the guest accolades.

So agree with you - Dionne is always so gracious and stays strictly complementary to whomever she's singing with - and, oh wow, how her various duet partners always appear to appreciate that - cause, let's face it, when Dionne opens up, she's a star that can't hide her light, she's just naturally - effortlessly - spectacular - thx for posting this, it's a simply gorgeous performance by both great ladies! :-)
A total masterpiece !!!
Back when you heard your favorite singer perform live and wasnt horrified.
It is sad we will never hear the beautiful and soulful voice of Roberta Flack again. I am glad there are videos and specials like this around so we can look back and remember visually. I am so glad I have in my CD collection the greatest hits of both artists!
Dionne made this song!
Dionne knew they just nailed that to perfection. True artists be just as anticipated as the fans when they are performing.
I like the fact that their in-sync with each other. I think it’s disgraceful how singers sing together trying out to do each other.
Dionne is robertas favorite singer so this had to be a special moment for her
Hearing Luther’s voice in the background gives me chills
OMG ❤ How did I miss this gem…1981? All these years 😮 This is absolutely wonderful. Thank you for posting ☺️

No, it’s not. You’re confusing it with her smash song ‘The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face’ from the year before, which was from ‘Play Misty For Me.’

Compare this class and talent to something like Cardi B or Ice Spice. 😂😂😂 Such a shame our society has degenerated so much.
Dion cannot out sing Roberta...Roberta's voice is bigger.
Dionne ruined her gift from God by smoking cigarettes and weed
