This lady was stacking them vocals correctly
Sounds like one voice
WASNT SHE THOUGH
@@MeddahSoul444 It is one voice, it's layered.
that's not all she was stacking :O
Everything stacked right on this lady...
There IS NO COMPARISON. Both The Chaka original and The Whitney reboot are spectacular!! A double win for the music lover.
💯
Yes!
The Chaka original version is the best.
I like Kimberly vs. Soraya - I’m Every Woman , if you haven't heard it check it out!
They are Every Woman maybe others have tried to cover it or failed
Songs you listen to when the homies aren’t around. 👀💯
The homies just might like it too...
Hahaha true
Yah damn right 😁😁
Lol
You mean when they are around? 😘
Fun fact: Whitney's mother Cissy provided backing vocals on Chaka Khan's original 1978 version of "I'm Every Woman", and so Whitney decided to return the favor by having both her mother and Chaka cameo in the music video for her 1993 cover version, along with Valerie Simpson (one-half of Ashford and Simpson, the songwriting-production married couple behind the original song, who were also recording stars in their own right) and then-rising girl group TLC. Whitney also paid tribute to Chaka by proclaiming Chaka's name towards the end of the song.
No she didn't. Wrong album. She sung on Chaka's 'Naughty' album.
@@JeffmChicago She did too. I checked Songfacts. A 14-year-old Whitney sang backing vocals on Chaka Khan's original version, together with her mother Cissy.
@@andrewbloom7637 Song facts is wrong. Idk why or how that rumor started but it stuck. You'll have to check the liner notes on the album to see that Whitney let alone at 14 years old is NOT singing background on IEW.
@@JeffmChicago She was. Whitney, Chaka and Cissy said so themselves. She did provide backing vocals, though she was uncredited and unpaid, as her mother was showing her the ropes of the music industry.
@@andrewbloom7637 that's not true. Whitney and her mother sang on Chaka's Naughty album in 1980. Cissy also sang on Chaka's self titled debut album in 1978 , but not on this song. The only vocalists on this record are Chaka and Hamish Stuart. This rumor got started when Whitney recorded the song in 1992. But Chaka later cleared it up as well as Cissy's mother in her book. And there's no way Cissy Houston, the most sought out backing vocalist and arranger in the 60's through the 80's was going to allow herself or her daughter to sing on anyone's record for free. She is credited on the Chaka album and the Naughty album. Whitney tagged along with her to sing on a few tracks on the Naughty album too. Both are credited in the liner notes. You can check the original LP liner notes. And I'm certain Cissy had her daughter paid too. 1980 was the time when Whitney started singing professionally. She's got a few commerical jingles from that time too.
WHITNEY MADE IT A POP SONG
BUT CHAKA HAS IT DISCO PARTY.. 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
Can't sit still when this comes on!
Great observation
And Whitney sang background at 15 for this song
@@Keke-dg6qk No she didn't. Whitney sung on Chaka's 2nd album "Naughty' with her mother Cissy & Luther Vandross.
But, Whitney's mother, Cissy, DID actually sing backgrounds for this track. Check the credits for this track and you'll see.
Chaka is just one in a million, she is very unique.
So was her national anthem 😂
Nah dude, I've heard she's every woman. ;)
Ethan Baum lmao
Amen to that
She’s just like every other woman😒
1978! This promo video is fantastic.
Chaka Khan can sing!!! beautiful!! talented woman then and now.
CHAKA KHAN IS THE BOMB!🤗
everyone's comparing whitney and chakas version...let's just appreciate both :)
Amen to that.
Cissy Houston sung background vocal on this song. You know Whitney was there learning. When Chaka released Naughty, Cissy and Whitney sang background vocals on Clouds. That track is funky with angelic vocals. Chaka is my goddess of funk. When is she and Geroge Clinton gonna drop something?
Whitney is better tho
absolutely!
The fact that Whitney's dope fiend ass gave Chaka Khan a shout out on her rendition of the song kinda let's you know who thought who's version was better.
This Song Came Out Before I Was Born And It Empowers Me!!!
One of the greatest voices ever heard.
The intro and baseline is just so FILTHY funky.
For some reason this song brings tears to my eyes. Chaka Khan, Whitney Houston, just doesn't matter... beautiful !!!
The song itself is empowering for women, I think. Music can do that especially someone when someone like Chaka Khan and Whitney sing. The intonation, dynamics, resonance, timbre and God given talent all comes together for these girls.
me too. I think it's such a beautiful message. very touching.
CHAKA is hands down the most beautiful woman that has ever lived , and her voice is so incredible. I can't agree that she's every woman only because there is only one chaka khan and there's no woman like her ..
😎Cool
She sang the shit out of the song!!! That is what's missing from the radio
today.❤❤❤❤
Agreed! Insult added to the injury of Whitney being MORE overplayed than "Sledgehammer" by Peter Gabriel!
So true Brittney. Mainstream oldies stations never play this and so many other great gems of those years. The melody here makes my eyes watery..
Some of the most beautiful head of hair I’ve seen in a very long time
There's a student who comes to the library where I work and I want to tell him his hair is awesome but I'm at least a decade older than he is so I'm too scared 🤣
@@sarawilliams3612 Lady just do it. What's the harm?
@@susango123 I suspect I'm a lot older than he is so it might come off as a bit creepy rofl. I suppose I could use a different adjective other than beautiful
@@sarawilliams3612 True dat. Compliments are always great.
Riiiighht
I love all of her outfits in this. They are very pretty and look comfortable too
She has beautiful teeth. Seriously.
I'm more of a rock n' roll type of fella but I love this tune.
Oh when she screamed, it made your hair stand. All woman... passion abound.
Good lord. She’s so beautiful.
What a beautiful woman. It is a wonderful, powerful and extraordinary voice. Undoubtedly one of the greatest and best singers the world has ever seen.
She was powerful on stage in concert 💖 awesome song 🌟🌟🌟
@Joseph Babica hehe..u silly but if I was dude, I would too 😊
Hollywood Rock 📳
Yes, Chaka in her younger years was gorgeous.
Prince is quoted as saying Chaka Khan, "Is the voice of Life!" He was right❤ Love her voice. It's effortless and a God given talent.
When she gets to that BRIDGE THOUGH... Absolute vocal prowess!!! Her level of control over her vocal at that range is INSANE!!! SHE KNOCKED FIRE FROM THAT BRIDGE ....
I can't get over how ADORABLE she is😍
When she was the singer for the group called Rufus, you could tell right away that she was going to be a STAR... And she was
Tell Me Something Good, indeed. Love Rufus featuring Chaka Khan!
@@JeffmChicago One of my favourite songs of all time. Reminds me of my roller rink days.
@@pmb4840 It reminds me of my Dad's house parties.
@@JeffmChicago Don't ya wish we could go back to those times?......I sure do. 😊
@@pmb4840 Me too. Way back when. Good memories.
Chaka was lowkey fine as hell ..I know she had em back in the day
I for a fact know that all the guys love this song as well, and play it when nobody's listening lol
Ladies and gentlemen the Queen Of Funk !
2:33 Nobody does It better than Chaka Khan! She's the QUEEN 👑!
Whitney can and even better
@@clintstargreat2754 😂 not with that note she isn't. Whitney's mid belts were immaculate but she absolutely not touching Chaka, Aretha or even Natalie in upper belts. Sorrry.
clintstar great why y’all have to compare ppl THEY BOTH GREAT JEEZZ
@@JaySmith-wo3di no offensive but hearing her hit those notes made me cringe and it hurts my ears a little
@@olomoment1922 I'm not saying anyone is better than the other but did Whitney ever actually do that note live?
Beautiful woman with an unmistakably beautiful voice. ❤
Yes 👍❤🌞 !
I’m sorry but this is the best version. I love Chaka. Go girl.
Why are you sorry?
Cause of Whitney Houston debate of covering.Original is mainly good but there a more more covers which some are excellent or take it a notch like a sequel to a Movie or evenly match very rare if it beats the Original
@@paultreadaway102 I think what Paul is _trying_ to say is that there's a hotly contested debate about who did the better version of this song. And "flowerpink" is "apologizing" to the fans of the Whitney version because she's saying the Chaka Khan version is better, and they may not want to hear that.
I agree. I like Chaka song better.
i agree! i grew up with this one, it's just better
What's better than one Chaka Khan? 5 Chaka Khans! :) And this is definitely one of my favourite Chaka tunes.
I love how raspy and gritty her voice gets at times. That ugly growl! True talent
Raspy & gritty? Check out Etta James.
@@JeffmChicago i love etta
Indeed, the raspy growl ROCKS!!
MAD for Etta!! Spend my last $$ to see her!!❣

Can we take a moment to appreciate Ashford and Simpson for writing this song that propelled Chaka Khan's solo career. They are the real heros! I ❤ Chaka and Whitney's version. This is a timeless and empowering anthem for ALL women!!!!
Actually they are not the real hero’s! though they wrote the song, the demo given to Chaka, sound nothing like what her finished recording sound! I have work with both Chaka Khan & ASHFORD & SIMPSON. I also had the privilege of hearing the original demo through R. I. P Arif Mardin! Chaka Khan’s Producer at the time. And had Chaka not sang and arranged the vocals the way she did. This song wouldn’t be what it is today. Even Whitney Houston said it herself, Chaka is credited for The vocal arrangements on Whitney version. Chaka has always had that magic when it came to making a regular song, into a masterpiece!
CORRECT! LETS! TAKE! A! (MOMENT)! TO! APPRECIATE! THE! (SOUL!MUSIC)! CLASS! I! MADE! (LEGENDS)! NICHOLAS! ASHFORD! (NA)! &! VALERY! SIMPSON! (VS)! ON! WRITING! THIS! TIMELESS! (SOUL!MUSIC)! SONG! NOW! YOU! KNOW! THE! (JAZZ!MAN)! *MIKE! SPENCE!
The story behind how Valerie and Nickolas wrote this song was pretty funny but got it done! They were such an amazing duo.
@@wallacegary6207they are the hereos. Nick Ashford wrotre this song for his wife Valerie
Wow learn something new every day
If your listening to this in 2021, you appreciate real music!
Así es☺️
Yes!!
trudat!
Dec '21... love it!!
2022!
"Don't bother to compare" 💗💗🤧
A GIRL BAND MADE OF FIVE CHAKA KHAN WOULD BE SO POWERFUL💅💅💅
She's so so beautiful then and now.
Whenever I feel down, I listen to this song and suddently, my confidence builds itself back up and it's as if I could own the world. Thank you Chaka Khan.
Brava, it 'so
That’s exactly what I’m doing now lol it’s such a serotonin booster
Same😏❤
Every woman - Chaka Khan

Ah-how far we've come with technology, graphics, etc. One thing that remains the same though - is this Queen's reign on talent and soul. Love you Chaka Khan!
I had no idea Chaka was such a looker back in the day.
Whitney Houston version of this song was great but Chaka is the hands down BEST!!!!
Steven Alex I think it’s more powerful!
I love both on their own way
Whitney sung better but Chaka looks better
I disagree. Chaka's version sounds nice, but Whitney blew it put of the water.
Haha didn’t even know Whitney had one, went to go listen to it. I LOVE Whitney but her version ain’t got shit on Chaka 💯
Yes, I'm a Chakaholic. My first vinyl was Rags To Rufus. She's transcended Blues, Jazz, Pop, Funk, Disco, Big Band and guested on many other's joints....and still going. This classic is one of many hits written by the great Ashford & Simpson dynamic duo. If this song is all you know of her and STUCK on comparing this version to another great vocalist's version, the late great Whitney Houston, I recommend seeking out Chaka's huge catalog. Both Chaka Khan & Whitney Houston have contributed greatly to this vast industry and to minimalize their great talents to who's version of a song is better is 1 dimensional and a half eye on their overall artistry.
Woooowwww thats class 🍻🇨🇴🇨🇴♥️
Funky decade..luv it !! Chaka is hot cookie !
Whitney...was incredible yes, but Chaka Khan OWNS this song, she is the Queen!!!!!!!!
Both women did the song so perfectly in their own right. I love both women and i love all Chaka's clothes here in.
She's been making music for more than 50 years and no sign of slowing down.
Radio seems to have forgotten this one over the years. What a disservice to those who like songs like this. What a great beat and dance number.
Whitney's version doesnt even compare. Doesnt have the vocal quality as this . Chaka Khan needs more respect and exposure her voice is exceptional
Chaka Khan is so beautiful👑
Chaka, its always been you. Just you.
OMG I love Chaka and Whitney🕺🏼🕺🏼🕺🏼
That womans voice, her cute lil look beautiful hair, her name. She is definitely one of Gods gift to me.
Yeah, her name!!!!!
The outfits are too tier❤
A treasure beyond measure.
This that Queen Aries Energy 👑 ✨❤💯
What to say???Fu***** gorgeous!!!She and Whitney, both are amazing!!
Now this is music!!!! Enjoy 2021!!!
My girl!! Chaka you got me through a lot of rough times..love you!
Back in September 26,1978 when thus video was made I was only 15 days old now I'm 44 years old beautiful time flies
Chaka owns this song. Hands down!
2023 and this song is just so timeless and beautiful!!!🙌🙌🙌🔥
I played this whole album until I wore it out... This song is just one of the album's jewels!
Great one :D
It's about time they made up their minds. Congratulations.
I'd forgotten how voluptuous Chakka Khan is
This was the disco record of its day (70s), and for women dancing to this song, it was a "feel good" factor, and women felt at their best dancing to it, letting go and really dancing all over the dance floor, as I once did, and do years later whenever I hear it. Go Chaka!
I was today old when I found out Chaka sang this song. I always thought it was Whitney. 😮
I was in college then...disco heydays this was a favorite in the dancefloor.
Yeah Chaka for the win
The one and only Chaka Khan! Whitney Houston did a pretty damn good version of this though. Two extremely talented women!
Actually they are not the real hero’s! though they wrote the song, the demo sound nothing like what Chaka’s finished recording sound like. I have work with both Chaka Khan & ASHFORD & SIMPSON. I also had the privilege of hearing the original demo through Arif Mardin,R. I. P Chaka Khan’s Producer at the time. And had Chaka not sang and arranged the vocals the way she did. This song wouldn’t be what it is today. Even Whitney Houston said it herself, Chaka is credited for The vocal arrangements on Whitney version. Chaka has always had that magic when it came to making a regular song, into a masterpiece!
This hit was so Hot, when released in Europe Man!!!! The liberty in the America's MUSIC for WOMAN AROUND the wolrld, A hit it Is !!!
STILL
Those fits ♥️
To the person reading this God loves you ❤❤
Her DEBUT solo single! CHAKA YES!!!!
This is the BEST and original One!!!
So so for the people that lived in this era. So so this the Chaka Khan y’all was looking at jevus ❤
Let’s keep Chaka around as long as possible I love her
I love her, also. Her voice is magical & she's so pretty, too.
Shaka Khan; Rocking the natural hair movement three decades before it's conception. What a women! 💜
CHAKA KHAN FOREVER ❤
And people say CG a is bad. 😂😂😂. Oh those video pioneers in the 70s! Gotta love them and of course gotta love Chaka Khan.
Chaka is the best Woooow Amazing 🎵🎵💃🏽⚘️💯❣️
Beautiful song, beautiful woman.
Chaka. Whitney. Two different versions, but each have the same effect on me. I'm up dancing!! Period!!! I'm Every Woman!!! Dance!!
Gorgeous woman!
Everything was better in the 70's.
Got that right the 70s Rocked like a ROCKING CHAIR BABY
An official upload!!! 25 year old Chaka was a dime!!!! Right before she dyed her hair red which is now her trademark.
chaka letting the chicago shine through - a diamond whose rough edges only make it shine brighter
For the very first time in my life, I actually heard "every one from A to Z". It's been jibberish in my head for the past 40 years
I LOVE those String Arrangements. done by Music Arranger, Arif Mardin. he also produced the track.
The best version of this song! I love Chaka!
Chaka. Khan. Punto. Final. (aka PERIODT.)
Honest to God this woman is one of the most amazing talented singers in the history of recorded music. She is a goddess.
Today, I just realized she is the Original not Whitney Houston.
I just love how she pronounces “I’m” haha 😆
Love Chaka From Wayyy Back When! Goddess Of Funk!
Chaka’s little dance 🙈🌹🌹👌🏾
Amazing chaka is beautiful
