Jan 27, 2007 | 2:47 pmJennifer Holiday owns "And, I am telling you." Ms. Holiday eats, chews up and spits out that song and gives a performance that transcends race, color, talent, creed or time. It is one of the best songs in music history. Whereas Jennifer Hudson does a good job in her own rights; I waited, played it fair to let her performance sink in and had to admit it's no contest. Holiday...Here are your props! And I am telling you...you are the best!

Jan 22, 2004 | 11:27 ami love this Jennifer Holiday song so much. I think it is one of the greatest songs in the world if not the greatest.


Funny all the comments from women, on a slow sexy ballad! Romantics!! Yes it was Sam Harris who sang this song on Star Search, but Jennifer's version not only sold a million copies, it was ten times better. It is getting a revival now with Jennifer Hudson and DREAMGIRLS movie!! On my scale from 1-10, it gets a 10.
