Amazon.co.uk Review
Strutting through the audience, the indomitable Tina Turner opens VH1's Divas Live 99 by launching into "Simply the Best", proving she still is. She and honorary diva Elton John belt out an energetic version of "The Bitch is Back", but the highlight is when Turner teases the captivated audience during the slow, sultry opening of "Proud Mary". A sexy dervish on stage, Turner easily out-swaggers her younger backup singer-dancers. Cher joins her to wrap up the classic hit, then segues into her own set in which she seems breathless, but you can't help admire her staying power (four decades!) and forgive her. Diva-in-training Leann Rimes performs "How Do I Live" with a sure, powerful voice. Next to her, Brandy is pleasant but unexciting. Her breathy rendition of "Everything I Do I Do for You" is disappointing, but it picks up when Faith Hill enters. Adding a passion and conviction that young Brandy can't yet muster, Hill grounds the song. Über-diva Whitney Houston gives us the drawn-out vocal gymnastics for which she's famous. Self-effacing she's not, but the girl can hold a note like nobody's business. Mary J Blige matches Houston in a charged "Ain't No Way". Divas Live 99 is a benefit for Save the Music, VH1's project to stress the importance of music education in American public schools. Though not as stunning as the previous year's Divas Live, it's still an enjoyable concert from some of music's favourite performers. --Dana Van Nest, Amazon.com

The songs are mostly standards performed solo and in various combinations. It is interesting to compare the various top class performers at work. Some generous and giving, some selfish and wanting centre stage! A minor drawback is the charity element, in this case a very worthy but solely American music charity. Various celebrities have been allocated walk on cameos while several undoubtedly able young performers are osensibly given a few moments in the limelight - this aside it is a great DVD and is well worth the asking price.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

Mariah, Gloria, Aretha, Shaina shine within their own right. Each a natural preformer with an amazing vocal talents - particualry Mariah and Aretha. Most disappointing is Celine Dion. Her vocals are substandard and she has no emtional connection with her songs whatsoever giving very bland and soul-less renditions. Whats worse is her constant attempts to upstage to all on the floor with her. The attempt which is most obvious occurs during Natural Woman when she attempts to upstage Aretha who casually and seemingly without effort drowns Celine out. Celine is then ultimatly left with no option but to retreat back into the line with her vocal cords between her legs. Mariah on the other hand delivers a class A, emotional rendition of My All with her sublime and unmatched bird like notes. Mariah's vocals sparkle as does she in a shimmiry gold dress. She deffiantly proves herself to be an established vocalist and song writer and the Barbra Streisand for the next generation. Gloria shines also through her smile, her upbeatness and good nature which radiats through the arena. Shania is not the vocalist the others are but manages to keep up and still puts in impressive efforts on You're Still The One and YOu've Got A Friend. The most stunning is obviously Lady Soul herself, Miss Aretha Franklin. Her voice flows so effortlessly and she always brings so much emotion and depth to her numbers. She helps propel Mariah as the Diva that she is during Chain Of Fools in which the two preform side by side, respecting one and other and neither trying to upstage the other. This bond makes the song very enjoyable and highlights everything that is wrong with all of Celine's preformances on You've Got A Friend and The Reason. Well done to all the ladies, poor show Celine. Celine isn't and wasn't the best that night, she should get some emtional connection with her songs and come back in a few years time without the intention to upstage everyone else on the stage and inevitably failing. Celine needs to learn the differance between Diva and down right show off b!tch.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
