Before we reveal the WINNER I'd like to, once again, thank each and every one of you for your participation and support. I hope to see the same energy for the next installments of the R&B Divas Series (chapter 2 is coming up SOON!) And now, without further ado... *drum roll*

My weary mind is rested And I feel as if my home is in your arms Fears are all gone I like the sound of your song And I think I want to sing it foreverThis is Anita's biggest hit EVER. "Giving You the Best that I Got" was the lead single from the album of the same name. It became her first R&B #1 and it also hit #3 on the Hot 100. When she first heard the song, Anita expressed the wish to record it on the condition that she could add some changes to it. She tweaked the lyrics to reflect her engagement and sped it up, giving it a slightly more midtempo feel. This song earned Anita Baker 4 Grammy nominations including Record and Song of the Year, but she only won Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best R&B Song at the 1989 ceremony. 2.

While "Angel" had only been Anita's breakthrough in the R&B world, "Sweet Love" managed to outdo it with a #2 peak on the R&B chart, a top 10 placement on the Hot 100 (#8) and by also crossing over to Adult Contemporary radio (#3). Anita also got her first Grammy nomination and win for Best R&B Song with it at the 1987 ceremony. 1.

Great Top 2! Thanks #LisaRinna for hosting and looking forward to the next in the series. (I think I'm approaching rankdowns wrong and that's why I never "win")
