She's so beautiful. I had the opportunity to meet her in person, and she is just as beautiful on the inside. Such a wonderful classy lady.

How can you sing so effortlessly, look so beautiful with that much soul in your voice? Me crying over my lost marriage has zero emotions compared to her singing this song!

Ms Knight has the best growl in R&B history ... all her vocal flourishes truly make her music glorious

Always loved the song but watching this was the first time I noticed how much the drums and bass were such a big part of driving this song along. What a great performance by all, especially the brass. Makes me sad to think a tight band and singers are a rare thing now. Used to be the only thing that brought ya success.
@andyroid502812 күн бұрын
Yeah. It's too bad they never really showcased the folks playing the instruments when the cameras/concert venue focused mainly on the 'up-front folks' (singers/dancers). Their bassist is/was really good.

I worked on the set with her and Patti La Belle (sp?) and Dionne Warwick for a song called, "Superwoman." All of the people on set were pros: we knew to keep to ourselves, and to NOT interfere with the production in any way. We were professionals. And, if you don't know, music videos are generally filmed against the track recorded in the studio. It makes sense. It must match the recording to play it on MTV. This song was no different. First came Patty Labelle. She raised her hand in the air, her signature move. Then came Dionne Warwick: her distinctive voice came through. And then: Gladys sang. Granted, she was mouthing her own words that were pre-recorded and played back on the Nagra (reel to reel playback machine); but suddenly and UNEXPECTEDLY, everyone in the room fell silent to listen to Gladys sing. It wasn't even a live performance! And, people listening started to cry. I don't know what it is about Gladys Knight, but she is a miracle, and one of a kind. I didn't have to gutz to go up and tell her how I felt. I let it go like a professional. But I've never forgotten the POWER that she showed: the power to bring a whole crowd of people to tears, with the shear and open display of her heart. And my point? She made me believe for the rest of my life that a person can move mountains. I've loved her ever since. God bless you, Gladys ... you are so loved. But I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that.

Came to this after just watching GK sing this on a recent edition of "The View," as she honored Whoopi Goldberg's birthday. Certainly hasn't lost much; in fact, her delivery may be even more soulful now if not as energetic. Sure loved the Pips...they may've been the best of the "whoo-HOO" backup singers, for ANY singer. Probably one of the templates for backups to come.
