who sang the original i'm every woman?
chaka khan
stephen holden of "the new york times" wrote: "though not as exuberantly sexy as the original, her version of chaka khan's 1978 hit, "i'm every woman," is a respectable imitation." allmusic editor stephen thomas erlewine praised the song: "especially her cover of "i'm every woman" are all first-rate urban pop songs that skillfully capture houston at her best." "entertainment weekly"s amy linden praised the cover: "just as triumphant is her tackling of chaka khan's signature tune, "i'm every woman." to take on another diva's material requires the female equivalent of cojones, and houston (wisely) doesn't muck around with the original's overall tone or arrangement. but she sure does it justice, even adding a sly "chaka" shout-out as the cut fades." "rolling stone" called this rendition an overwrought remake and that whitney undermined her soul roots. a review on cd universe is also a positive one: "houston continues to mine her rich vein of ornate balladry and pop-flavored dance workouts on the ashford & simpson original "i'm every woman." "usa today" praised the song too: "she adds surprises: chaka khan's i'm every woman becomes sweaty house music."
