Luther sang this song as tribute to Dionne Warwick because she first sang it in the 60's. Luther covered the song and made it his own. Many people don't realize A House Is Not A Home by Luther is a cover song.

And Luther loved Dionne, she was his favorite singer and said his inspiration. He covered other songs of hers and duet together too.

Actually, Luther started out as background singer for many groups & solo artists, including David Bowie. He then joined the group's Chic and Change. Patti Labelle was the one who encouraged him to go out on his own and start a solo career. Luther started Patti Labelle's fan club when he was a young boy. He adored her!

A House is Not a Home was originally done by Dionne Warwick (the lady you saw in the video) back in the 60's. Luther cover a few songs from other artists. He did it so well, that people forget about the original versions.

I saw Luther rehearsing at the NAACP Awards one year. His eyes were closed and the only people in the theater were the workers and the media. Everybody (especially the women,) stopped what they were doing. This man's voice was perfect. When he finished and opened his eyes, he was actually embarrassed. Everybody there was clapping. I am a 100% straight man but I had chills listening to Luther.

Luther grew up a big fan of singer Dionne Warwick ( pronounced DEE - YAWN). She sang that song first, years ago. And it was a hit Luther, in turn, recorded the version here, back in the early 80s. And it took, was one of his early hits So, on this awards show, he was paying tribute to her. BTW, they did a duet, recorded a few years ago entitled "How Many Times Can We Say Goodbye. ".

For years before his death Luther said he'd wanted to do an entire album of Burt Bacharach/Hal David songs. Sadly, we never got to hear that album. But this beautiful rendition of the Dionne Warwick original is a small taste of what could have been. Before he died Luther did record four songs by Bacharach/David: "Anyone Who Had A Heart (also originally sung by Dionne), "What The World Needs Now", and "Your Secret Love". RIP to the greatest male singer of his generation, Luther Vandross.

Actually Luther was famously asked if he wanted to do an album of Bacharach David songs. No Luther stated he wanted to do an album covering Dionne Warwick. He also said their duet was his favorite...duet he ever did.

I have fond memories of the times that I was fortunate enough to see Luther live. He wasn't a dancer, but he always put on a great show. I remember watching this performance on TV. Luther and Dionne had a bit of a falling out. I don't remember the reason, and it didn't last long. This performance was the beginning of them burying the hatchet and rebuilding their friendship.

@hmvman58 4 ай бұрын

Dionne Warwick had originally recorded A House Is Not A Home and was an inspiration to Luther in starting his career. He had hoped to sing the song one day and to meet his inspiration, Dionne Warwick! He got the blessing of meeting his idol and became fast and dedicated friends with her! And this was the live dedication to his friend and inspiration. Luther's talent and amazing vocals are truly missed!

Some of these songs have quite a backstory behind them far beyond what a limited KZfaq video can convey. This was the LIVE version of the already classic album version at that point in time. And the album version was a REMAKE or COVER of the original version by Dionne Warwick back in the 60s if I'm not mistaken at the height of her career back then.

@battlegirldeb 4 ай бұрын

Hal Davis and Burt Bacharach wrote many songs most of them sung by Dionne Warwick in the 60's. Luther grew up listening to those songs. When he started singer as a solo artis. He covered all love of this teams' songs and made them his own. Dionne is also Whitney Houston's first cousin.

@demont705 3 ай бұрын

Here's a little background about Luther and Dionne Warwick in case you didn't know. Luther sang as a back up singer for her. She paid attention to his talents and fired him from back up and told him to go shine as a solo artist. He did and the rest is history!! Love your reactions you are so funny especially during the D'angelo reaction!!🤣😂🤣😂

First, I want to say I love your reactions. Keep up the wonderful work and thanks. Mr. Luther Vandross is one of the Greatest of All Time. His music could take you through every emotion possible. His song, Dance With My Father, just shreds me. Always a favorite but ever since my father's passing it is even more special, and it is Mr. Vandross who made it so. You should listen to it and Stop to Love. Would love to see you react to some Marvin Gaye, Jeffery Osborne, George Benson and Gregory Abbot.

Also, Luther Vandross did sing some background for Dionne Warwick back in the late 1970’s. She was one of several people to push Luther to go on and do a solo career. Dionne felt he was too talented to be a backup single and writing jingles for tv commercials.

Luther started out as a background singer for Dionne Warick. She saw early on the gift he had but knew if she kept him in the background she would hold him back. So, she made the difficult decision of firing him and told him that later on he would understand. That's why they kept showing her face. That was like watching one of your kids walking across the college stage of life graduating with full honors. That' why she was crying.
