Because in order to become bigger you have to comply with the elite Illuminati for which you have to change most of yourself to portrait the image they want you to portrait and sing the songs they want you to sing with the message in the music videos they want you to show. That's why most super, super famous artists have changed radically from being innocent to rebel, super sexualized and sort of show satanic symbolisms in their videos. You have two choices, you comply and stay or you get out. Because they are the owners of the industry. And the ones who rebelled against it and want to come forward with the truth of that industry, well... you know what could happen, first they get ridiculed and subsequently killed or "suicide "if they persist. Those people are real. I started in the industry as an extra in Hollywood was taking classes of different sorts, and meeting people in the lower industry. While at a club, I made friends with a gorgeous ex male model and told him that I moved to LA to be in the performing arts industry, and he told me to be careful, that this Illuminati people would invite them to parties with celebrities and would try to recruit beautiful people/models to make a particular celebrity fall into their life style and subsequently introduce them into their cult. They would find out a celebrity 's weakness (meaning what they liked, man, woman, what types, etc) and recruit that model or someone to fulfill those desires and drag them seductively into their agendas.

Barbara Lewis and the Dells were proud of this tune and they knew they were in a business where a great song can often be performed in a uplifted beat as music companies feel the customer is always right.

Nothing can beat the sounds of music from my past.

One of my favorite singers,

Still watching this in 2022. Fantastic.

That Yvonne Elliman sings like an angel! Wow, what a beautiful woman and I bet she still is. First time I heard her was back when one of my favorite movies came out Saturday Night Fever , she sang a song in that movie, last time I saw her about the years ago on T .V. channel PBS, they had a special about Disco music, which I have seen it about six times already, and she came on. She still sang beautifully, and she still was very beautiful for age, I wish I would have been there in person! God I miss those days!From The Cuban Disco Kid!

The most beautiful voice !

I have loved her voice and personality way back in 1976. What an angle.

Has to be still one of my favorite all time songs and singers. Love her voice. 2020 and still dig it.

Like everything this woman has ever sang it comes from the heart. Thanks for a walk down memory lane, I played this tune over and over back in the day. Never tire of this great tune..Peace.

i I I I'm so glad That I found this

Beautiful!

this version from Yvonne Elliman is also beautiful !!

This is my first time EVER hearing this version and I am absolutely stunned! Her voice range took my breath away especially when the keyboard rang out as she sung. I love Barbara Lewis’ original as well, but this one was to me equally heartfelt. I’m just shocked that in my 57 years of studying music, that I miss d this one, not to mention that the video had me obsessively watching it over and over for about an hour now! An absolute classic.

Because she was considered a disco artist, which I think is highly unfair to her. Just because she was on a soundtrack to a disco movie didn't made her a disco singer. She was a great singer with a great sultry voice who was caught up in the "disco sucks" silliness.

Listening to this great song on 6/07/19. She sings it so beautifully.

Great rendition of a song that was originally a hit for Barbara Lewis in 1963.

She did Barbara Lewis proud. Close the book, we've got our winners.

🌹 For Ms. Elliman: Lovely Yvonne, of feminine spirit and song: Thank you for gracing the days with your beauty, as of the new dawn.

Great song by Ms Barbara Lewis. Kudos to Yvonne Elliman, wonderful job. Tha' a singer, too. Thanks for the post. Blessings

Thank you for your excellent rendition of "Hello Stranger." Barbara Lewis would have been proud! God has blessed me to live at the same time that Barbara Lewis walked the earth and to have recordings of her songs. I don't wan't to take anything from Yvonne Elliman.
