My Favorite Performances of Mary J. Blige

Today, thinking that I have wrote in my blog in a while. So GOD have me some inspiration, I began listening to Mary J. Blige's live performances and I began to start crying. So I felt from each album I wanted to give my best live performances from her; starting with What's The 411 to Stronger With Each Tear.


WHAT'S THE 411 ERA!!!


I DON'T WANNA DO ANYTHING W/K-CI MTV UNPLUGGED
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU250a21Ibk


(In this performance you see that Mary was singing to K-CI with all her soul, you feel the love that she had for him. When she gets to the part "Cause I love you K-CI", shows you how deep her love was for him)


MY LIFE ERA!!!


BE HAPPY LIVE AT APOLLO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjWfjVxShwI


(In this performance, I feel the song as soon as it the beat drops, just like audience. When she gets to the 2:02, that adlib sends chills up my spine. During this era, Mary just wanted to "Be Happy" with her career and relationship.)


SHARE MY WORLD ERA!! (HAD TO PUT TWO, IT WAS HARD)


MISSING YOU AT SOUL TRAIN AWARDS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSZiDgRl5pI&feature=related


(In this performance, Mary is taking you to church from beginning to end. Everytime I watch this video, I begin to cry because it makes think about my relatives that have passed on. It's like Mary had my spirit doing this whole video)


SEVEN DAYS LIVE AT THE CHRIS ROCK SHOW

(In this performance, Mary kills it, especially when she gets to the remix part. Check Mary's face expression after she finishes the song, she was talking to someone.)


MARY ERA!!! (HAD TO PICK TWO HERE..LOL)


NOT GON CRY AT MSG W/ERIC CLAPTON
http://video.seeon.tv/video/642/Mary-J-Blige-Ft-Eric-Clapton--Not-Gon-Cry


(In this performance, Mary rips this song to sheds. I love the breakdown of this, where Mary is talking to you, "You need to walk away". The soul in her voice in this performance was classic.)


911 LIVE WITH WYCLEF
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTY46UE62dk


(In this performance, I was waiting for Mary to take me to church and she did. The soul she gives to you in this gives me chills)


NO MORE DRAMA ERA!!! 


NO MORE DRAMA AT THE GRAMMYS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_LSHiV8Srk&feature=related

(This performance was one of the best grammy performances of all time, Mary definitely delivered, she put her heart on that stage as the world watched. A tear-jerker)


LOVE & LIFE ERA!!!


CHILDREN OF THE GHETTO LIVE DURING THE LOVE & LIFE TOUR
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VuKE5Xum2U


(This performance Mary is singing to every person that feels like they would make it out of the hood or a terrible situation, she is saying "Keep Your Head" to the sky. Watch the passion she sings in this)


THE BREAKTHROUGH ERA!!!


BE WITHOUT YOU/STAY WITH ME AT THE GRAMMYS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV83n9aVQ5c


(This performance Mary showed the world that she has grown within herself to love again. She proved that she was the Queen with this one. You know she was singing to Kendu with all that passion. Great performance)


DURING THE GROWING PAINS ERA!!!...I dont really have any, but I will find it.


STRONGER WITH EACH TEAR ERA!!


COLOR LIVE AT SIRIUS XM CONFIDENTIAL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_77oYJRIBs
