Melanie Fiona paid tribute to Michael Jackson on ‘The Early Show’ recently. The R&B singer performed the Jackson 5 classic ‘I’ll Be There’. Peep the performance below:
Many people tend to forget that their are two versions of this song: the Jackson 5’s and Mariah Carey’s arrangement. Fiona was clearly singing Carey’s composition of the tune and, unfortunately for her, it didn’t work completely in her favour. Still, she did her thing and it’s great to see young talent acknowledging the greatness that was Jackson.
I miss MJ so much. This is very overhwhelming
it was an ok performance. she’s a good singer
I miss MJ too. And I want that drink that she has in her hand!! lol
@Trent…stop the hatin man lol. Melaine sound jus right for this song. She made it her own and sounded good sangin it. Very well done Melanie.
SHE SOUNDED AMAZING!!!!
That was a good performance; just about fulfilled its purpose.
But seriously, Trent: “their are two versions” – come on now
ONE OF THE BEST OUT NOW FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @BEYVSTHEWORLD
It was alright, could have been much worse.
Off Topic: Mariah recently purchased one of MJ’s customed designed furniture sets for $1 million
She sounded like she was struggling a bit.
h** have a seat.
SHe reminds me of Ananda Lewis! She is a beaut!
Many people tend to forget there are two versions of this song ?
And who are these people who forget honey T ?
stop thinking you have musical knowledge over everyone else who comes here simply because you landed yourself a job on samanthas blog, we are more than aware there are different versions of this song sweetie.
Mooriah Carey would have murderd this song if she attempted singing it in her current state, that state being her no longer being able to sing live or reach her whistles or big belty notes.
Melanie Fiona > MooMooariah Carey.
Thats right trent honey, sit it on down.

Child, it’s obvious you are cluesless! Celine Dion is far from a FLOP sweetcakes. Do some research and then come back with something more credible. I mean I can post her accomplishments, but I’ll wait for you to do it so you can look like the idiot that you are.
@TEAM WEEZY
No one is questioning their acomplishments…okay booboo !
Just the fact that their voices are no longer there…comprende… sweetie ?
*WHO OWNS THE THRONE?*
*YOU DO MOMMY!*

That was good, I don”t know why you hate so much Trent.
@DanBOfiicial
Hmmm, did you not refer to Celine Dion as “CeFLOPline dion?”
Damn, you need to learn how to read and comprehend your OWN s***, huh?
Like I said, she is FAAAAAAAAAARRRR from a flop, boo boo. Do your research and come back to try again, K?

LMAOOOOOOOO @ your lack of response to the topic at hand (Celine being a flop)! It’s obvious you did the research and your dumbass couldn’t come with a valid response in reference to Celine flopping. LOL! You have been exposed and now you want to switch the subject to “Team Weezy’s response being weak” and LiL’ Wayne’s music! LOOOOVE IT! Damn, you are a true FOOL!
Now, what’s this about Celine being a FLOP, again? YOU come back stronger and stay on on topic this time, babe.
I JUST LOST ALL MAJOR RESPECT FOR thatsgrapejuice.com HOW CAN YOU SAY THE RENDITION DIDN’T WORK IN HER FAVOR, MICHAEL J. SUNG THIS IN HIS TEENAGE YEARS AS A MALE, MELANIE IS IN HER 20’S AND IS A FEMALE, THERE WILL BE A MAJOR DIFFERENCE………….. STOP HATING BECAUSE YOU KNOW AS WELL AS EVERYONE ELSE DOES THAT MELANIE IS THE S*** AND HER RENDITION IS THE S***
This was brilliant! Well done Melanie!
Mariah’s been out for decades…..Melanie’s been out for less than a year….come on people. Stop hatin’ on yet another Canadian urban artist! We ALL know Melanie can sing!
