im so mad i only know her from the voice, i just cant explain how underrated she is. I love her
Such a rich and soulful voice, sad to see her not hitting the top of the charts.
From 2:26 – 3:10 and many other moment till the end, the tone, vibrato and styling sounds exactly like Kelly Clarkson. Or maybe I should say Kelly sounds like Wendy.
Have you ever really wondered why some people “go very far with their talent/passion” and some don’t???!!!!! Her voice is just as sweet as Whitney’s…. I don’t like comparing humans because we’re all very unique, in our own ways. BUT, I can’t help but wonder how she didn’t get the same recognition… if it was her manager or the games people play with each other when it comes on to signing contracts, and booking shows etc…. HER VOICE AND HER ENTIRE BEING IS BEAUTIFUL!!!🌺💕🌸💖
She’s my favorite since “forever yours”. I wonder how come the judges didn’t recognize her…
Rooting for wendy to win the voice..
🥺🥺 she is too perfect
There is Whitney Houston in her voice..
Wendy Moten ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Who got here from The Voice?
I hear the perfect blend of Mariah AND Whitney @4:05 . Wow! God bless Wendy Moten!
Amazing! I just saw her on “The Voice”, and had to look her up. She would’ve been a superstar had she not gotten lost under Whitney Houston’s shadow.
my god what power, i knew it then when nobody gave her a second look because of one reason back in the 90's……her name was Whitney Houston.
Her voice is great but i have a feeling its a little bit of a knock-off
Not her fault
She has a beautiful voice!! And sounds just like Whitney some.
She has been in the background for so long, when this incredible woman steps out on her own she really blows everyone away! God I’ll buy every album and go to every show I can! I wanna hear her on some house mixes and movie soundtracks and wow just wow please elevate this artist! Everyone else has 100 more years to make it, this could be Wendy’s last BIG chance and she absolutely deserves it! VOTE VOTE VOTE WENDY!!!!!!!!
Her voice is even more powerful now
It's only right we move past she sounds like Whitney. Wendy is incredibly deserving of her own lane in r&b. She brought life back to the genre in The Voice. She absolutely proved she deserves to win and much more.
Since we have lost Whitney We can now support Wendy and increase her recognition. It's never to late for authentic , incredible talent such as hers.
Love Mama Wendy
Love It! What A Talent.
We were like a flower
That never reach full bloom
We never gave our love much chance to grow
Even though the feeling was wonderful
We went on our separate ways
And all we know
It's what we share is more than most
Cause we came all so very close to love
But we let it slip away
I always wondered why
You never chose to stay
So close to love
Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
I find myself dreaming of
How we came all so very close to love
I always remember
The way you care for me
Time after time my life was in despair
Yet somehow I always knew you'll be right there
At times I did not have a prayer
I'm sure that you and I both know
That we came all so very close to love
But we let it slip away
I always wondered why
You never chose to stay
So close to love
Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
And I think I had a lover
And we came all so very close to love
How can I face the fact it's over
We're through
I can't believe it's true
When I'm alone
Sometimes I wonder if you knew
How much I care for you
So I'm hanging on to the memories
How hard you make sweet love to me
And it's so hard to let it go
When we came all so very close to love
But we let it slip away
I always wondered why
You never chose to stay
So close to love
Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
I find myself dreaming of
How we came all so very close to love
We let it slip away
I always wonder why
You never chose to, chose to stay
So close to love
Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday
I find myself dreaming
I find myself dreaming of….
your love…..yeah……
So close
So very close to your love
The perfect song for when you come so close…. And it slips away
so tired of the comparison. I love Whitney, but when this song came out, I liked this better than anything from The Bodyguard
Wendy must’ve been heavily pitted against Whitney in the 90s. During that era there was still some colorism happening in the music industry. Hope she finally gets the recognition she deserves today.
Whitney Houston????
no creen que esto merece mas vistas?
Beautiful indeed wendy
,this song was made just for her.she has a incredible voice she sounds like whitney.i hope she keeps singing.she didn't need to win the voice.she is already a winner and she can sing with anyone.keep singing.hope you continue to heal god bless
hearing this for the first time in 2023. she is amazing.
why did she not become a superstar?
fantastic voice.
respect.
Knew her first in 1994 from a radio in Thailand.. I recall "come on in out of the rain" got me completely then
Wendy sings the closest to The Great Nippy than Glyniss Grace in my Opinion
