I can remember dancing to the Family Affair song. The first time I seen Sly & The Family Stone was at the Washington D.C. Carter Barron it was so much fun there....Sly and his group was WILD.
♪♫ This Day in Music: November 30, 1971 - Sly and the Family Stone were at No.1 on the US singles chart with "Family Affair”, their fourth and final No.1. Rolling Stone magazine later ranked the song #138 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. ♪♫
All time favorite song, second only to Superstition by Stevie Wonder which is number one. This song brings back great memories. Thanks for the posting.
"Family Affair" is a 1971 number-one hit single recorded by Sly and the Family Stone for the Epic Records label. Their first new material since the double a-sided single "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)"/ "Everybody Is a Star" nearly two years prior, "Family Affair" became the third and final number-one pop single for the band. Rolling Stone magazine later ranked the song #139 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The cover version by John Legend, Joss Stone, and Van Hunt, won the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at 49th Annual Grammy Awards.

It's a family affair, it's a family affair It's a family affair, it's a family affair One child grows up to be Somebody that just loves to learn And another child grows up to be Somebody you'd just love to burn Mom loves the both of them You see it's in the blood Both kids are good to Mom "Blood's thicker than the mud" It's a family affair, it's a family affair Newlywed a year ago But you're still checking each other out Nobody wants to blow Nobody wants to be left out You can't leave, 'cause your heart is there But you can't stay, 'cause you been somewhere else! You can't cry, 'cause you'll look broke down But you're cryin' anyway 'cause you're all broke down! It's a family affair, it's a family affair oh hey ya It's a family affair, it's a family affair

The problem is the evil old testamen god n his devil chosen people...They want the whole earth for themselves only
@@poppiethestable4569 what a downer, dude, come on, there's some real issues there, no doubt, but still - ever heard of fetishizing evil?
The amazing thing about this song and the TV series and 1971 has a LOT in common!
Great sound quality.❤️👍

+Ghee Pee I'm rarely envious, but I'm definitely envious of anyone who's been to a Sly gig.
Still listening great song

Fall Of 1971 East New York In Brooklyn! From Blewfoot....

Jah Bless my familia

Gangsta before rap
Greatest pop song on the 20th century is FAMILY AFFAIR .
Thanks uncle Joey!!!!!!
It's a family affair, it's a family affair
It's a family affair, it's a family affair
One child grows up to be
Somebody that just loves to learn
And another child grows up to be
Somebody you'd just love to burn
Mom loves the both of them
You see it's in the blood
Both kids are good to Mom
"Blood's thicker than the mud"
It's a family affair, it's a family affair
Newlywed a year ago
But you're still checking each other out
Nobody wants to blow
Nobody wants to be left out
You can't leave, 'cause your heart is there
But you can't stay, 'cause you been somewhere else!
You can't cry, 'cause you'll look broke down
But you're cryin' anyway 'cause you're all broke down!
It's a family affair, it's a family affair oh hey ya
It's a family affair, it's a family affair

OOOH YEAH KEKE KANE MY PARENTS REMEMBER THEM AND STILL JAM TO THIS
I believe Barry White sung this song excellently at the end of a movie from the 90's, I can't find the version here, anybody got it?
Man I wish for a remaster
😆👍
I miss my family. shit everybody is dead rip you guys
No reason to Cuss get off the drugs in the marijuana
NOTICE ALL THE LOVE IN HOUSTON??? NO BLURRED LINES... ONE RACE: THE HUMAN RACE!!
Nigel that's the best I could come up with....you could google the lyrics
wud da bear....
Got volume.
what does he say at 1:04? its been driving me crazy (to me it sound like "one of them, one of them")
+Nigel 1990 Agreed man, but I can tell it either.. Ive heard this song a thousand and 6 times, and still dont know.. Gonne hit it a couple more times and see if I can get it.. :)
+Nigel 1990 My guess is "Love affair-what of it?". Maybe that's the lyric, Maybe not. What is 100% certain is the funk is undeniable. Great stuff.
absolutely true leomann.. sing it how you want.
Nigel 1990
i think he's just catching or choking back up the drag from his joint
... yup! kool dude !
leomannpictures "what is 100% certain is the funk"
MASTERFUL ANALYSIS and smooth shaven as occam's razor
more and more I learn that Will I Am and the whole Black Eyed Peas aint really that talented
