@@tyrae7113 I worked in the entertainment industry for 35 years, successfully, specifically MUSIC so I KNOW the history, trust me. Black folks are instrumental to the foundation of modern music, no question about it, but others contributed as well. And yes, Elvis and many others admitted that they "stole" from black entertainers.
I can't say Enough Thank You AWESOME BLACK AMERICANS MUSIC... that's how I learned to move to music and able to understand English... jip I am German I love Jackie Wilson, Sam Cooke, Little Richie, The Supreme You Freaken Awesome I SALUTE YOU 🎉❤ THANK YOU TINA TURNER... YOU ARE AWESOME
Wow Stevie Wonder's Song My Cherie Amour Brings Back So Many Wonderful Memories of My First Elementary School Crush. Mr. Wonder Brought Me To Tears Thinking about My Mom. Mrs. Evelyn I Miss You so Much 😢😢😢
@@anitramiller9626❤I think, he, us, need your music, I hope Stevie Keep on singing and writing, and playing. Steve Wonder is alive, it's a good luck for all. Just are great, that simple. This bio, this film, this documentary, yes I think one good documentary. Thanks
Berry Gordy was/is a genius. His Motown was one of the greatest creative hit producers in history. Those songs still set feet to dancing and hearts to racing.
THIS IS THE HISTORICAL MUSIC EVENT. THAT I MOSTLY WANTED TO SEE IN 2022. THIS TELEVISION SPECIAL WAS ....... THE ONLY TIME I TURNED ON MY TELEVISION. THAT. YEAR. ...THE. REASON...................... ......*** BERRY GORDY. JR..
It was such a confluence of serendipitous good fortune with Berry Gordy 's will and wisdom and being in a city with so much talent like Smokey, Diana, Marvin etc. And knowing how to get the best from such a wide variety of mercurial and brilliant artists... and we are all the better for it
That arrangement of God Bless The Child gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. I have been looking for this video for over a year now since it got removed from YT. Thank you CC for posting this, Andra Day is a fabulous and wonderful singer.
This was all amazing. But, it was astounding to me how this Supremes and Temptations medley had both lookalike and soundalike singers for that performance. It's probably actually a roadshow somewhere. But, even still....
I wish the "temptatiions" would have grasped how clean their movements was. Gordy was all about precision with them and their movements. I have watched this 3 times and i just love it everytime i watch
This is America at its best! So sad that so many don't know and may never know because of the insidious, wrongful teachings, and idiocy passed on to so many. Be human first: and everything may change. Peace!
Christmas is near friends, let's invite everybody enjoy such gifts tips for the beloved ones, no time for bad times only having big big fun together, no time for hatred and sadness, only singing along good old songs together, big loving hug all black gorgeous friends, eternal gratitude artists that made of our lives a better place, you can bet on it guys, you have a super special place in our hearts for. ..a real long time, reminds me the very first time I went on a disco club dancing, yeah, it was such a big fun, unforgettable, let's get back that beautiful feeling indeed❤🎉❤
The imitation acts were weak, but Stevie was the real deal. (The fake Temps and Supremes changed the speed and pitch of the songs, and the dance moves weren't exactly the same) ... the guys in the Temptation movie did it better.
@@ezerlenewatkins9644your guess is as good as mine it could be Freddie Mercury Freddie Jackson or Freddy Krueger you pick one I think Freddy Krueger is the fraud he's the Superstition one🤔😜
Awesome performance by Stevie. Not sure why they didn't have a Temptations/Supremes medley with the people at the top. The performance in the middle is meh. Would have been better to have her sing Ain't No Mountain High Enough. Billie Holliday deserves her own show. And why or why didn't Smokey sing!?!?
How about mention The Marvelettes who gave Motown their first number 1 hit which was also their (The Marvelettes) first single. It took The Supremes at least nine singles before they got their first hit.
Thanks for mentioning that. It ALWAYS ironically gets left out and/or overlooked. They only mention The Miracles had Motown's first million seller, but it was not Motown's first number 1 hit. Please Mr. Postman hit number 1 on the Hot 100 on Dec. 11, 1961. Give historic credit and respect where it's due!!!!!
This is true throughout the world. South Korea's KPop is straight from Black America!!! I watched a video of Punjabi rapping in India. This is why June in America is Black Music Month from HipHop, Jazz, Blues, R&B, Gospel, Soul, Country, Disco, etc. Latin music is flavored from the Motherland. Black music is the reason the U.S. is #1 musically. Foreign artists dream is to make it in America. These are the facts.
How can you honor Gordy without mentioning Tammi Terrell The Four Tops Gladys Knight and the Pip's The O"Jays and The Dells This Man made the careers of many many great entertainers Who weren't a one hot wonder Gordy started as a child with a vision that he brought to life Gordy created entertainers that gave the world an experience that no one had ever experienced before The Man is a genius Gordy should have been the only honoree on this night
Black Americans gave this country so much good music. Hell gave the world good music. We are so gifted
We are the BEST ever history has proven that.....
All races of people gave this world GREAT music!

Stevie’s gift comes straight from the heavens. Makes no sense how this man can still sound so amazing after all this time.
the guy doing David Ruffin nailed the split .

The Billie Holiday part makes me cry amazing..

Stevie Wonder is timeless.
His voice is amazing!
I remember seeing him on American Bandstand when he was Little Stevie Wonder
He needs a bio..

The brilliance of Motown has travelled all the way across the Pacific Ocean to Australia. I fell in love with The Supremes when I was 12

Has Stevie received a Kennedy Center Honor yet?? He is MORE than deserving!!! ☝️
Stevie is the greatest musician of the XX. He has received everything
Good question... I don't know🤔
Yes, 22nd KENNEDY CENTER HONORS, 1999
Well, can't you see he's WEARING his honour... 😏
Yes
Being Black is such a beautiful blessing from the Lord. Thank you Emma S Garner Union SC
My kids ask me why I have music from this era, its timeless thats why. One listen and they agree.
Stevie’s music is timeless. Still sounds good.
THIS IS THE HISTORICAL MUSIC EVENT. THAT I MOSTLY WANTED TO SEE IN 2022. THIS TELEVISION SPECIAL WAS ....... THE ONLY TIME I TURNED ON MY TELEVISION. THAT. YEAR. ...THE. REASON...................... ......*** BERRY GORDY. JR..
He was an absolute genius of a man love Motown such soul
Um, he's not dead.
And the amazing Smokey Robinson
Marvin Gaye❣️❣️ Simply the BEST! I will always love you❣️❣️
Motown was my favorite from the start...grew up with all this wonderful music. Thank you Mr. Gordy!!❤❤❤
It was such a confluence of serendipitous good fortune with Berry Gordy 's will and wisdom and being in a city with so much talent like Smokey, Diana, Marvin etc. And knowing how to get the best from such a wide variety of mercurial and brilliant artists... and we are all the better for it
I’m so proud of the tribute from Ain’t Too Proud. This was a big deal.
I cannot express how much this man means to this world, to America, to my heart. He is a miracle. A force.
Billie Holiday would love to hear your interpretaion of her song truly amazing
So many talented artists! Blessed from birth and singing in church!
I love their retro looks and style. I wish i can see artist like this more.
That arrangement of God Bless The Child gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. I have been looking for this video for over a year now since it got removed from YT. Thank you CC for posting this, Andra Day is a fabulous and wonderful singer.
Women were so classy back then
Yep
God Almighty Bless Motown and its music...
The singers sound amazing
Berry Gordy has got to be almost 100. Thank you sir for making music loved by just about every culture.
Motown music is timeless. Till this day motown is adverts and sampled
Love Motown Music!!!❤💯🎼🎶🎵🎤❤️✨✨✨✨✨
Oh my Stevie Wonder live is like a kiss from the Muse
I loved this music in my young years and it still moves me today!
Thank you so much for posting this. So many legendary performances, especially Andra Day and Stevie Wonder ❤
And all the amazing sounds of Motown
CONGRATULATIONS 💐 MR MOTOWN --> BERRY GORDY AND ALL THE ARTISTS FROM MOTOWN-VILLE! FANTASTIC, OH YES! 🎶 🔥 💞 🥳 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
SO PROUD of the Woman in the Red Dress!!!
Yes. She set it off👏🏽💐💯💯🙌🏾💝😅💃
If I’m not mistaken that’s Norah O’Donnell from CBS!
wow ...God bless the child....pure magic
Wow, Stevie Wonder the only one of all the Motown acts to perform. I know, some are dead, but a lot are still around.🎉
Many are really really old
This was all amazing. But, it was astounding to me how this Supremes and Temptations medley had both lookalike and soundalike singers for that performance. It's probably actually a roadshow somewhere. But, even still....
I guess Diana Ross was busy. She only owes her entire career to him, and oh yes, They had a child together.
Mr. President i certainly did not know you are a fan of black music very well done
It’s American music
Wth you're saying anything smh smh
@@charronrose68 What are you talking about?
Stevie stole the show and Andrea day
True meaning of the word" icon"
Excelso, insuperable, inigualable Stevie Wonder
Just went to see the play and it's wonderful. Worth every penny of your money. !!
I wish the "temptatiions" would have grasped how clean their movements was. Gordy was all about precision with them and their movements. I have watched this 3 times and i just love it everytime i watch

Wow that guy group is just wow
I thought they's NEVER stand!!! Wow!!!
The imitation acts were weak, but Stevie was the real deal. (The fake Temps and Supremes changed the speed and pitch of the songs, and the dance moves weren't exactly the same) ... the guys in the Temptation movie did it better.
7:13 she played in the Broadway version of Dreamgirls!!
everybody getting into the groove off of Freddy superstition.
Antoinetteboswell2: who is Freddy supersition??
@@ezerlenewatkins9644your guess is as good as mine it could be Freddie Mercury Freddie Jackson or Freddy Krueger you pick one I think Freddy Krueger is the fraud he's the Superstition one🤔😜
Wouaa superbe !
Diana was more graceful and feminine
Thanks so much ❤
Yesssss!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

BLACK FOLKS .. we just are awesome
How can you honor Gordy without mentioning
Tammi Terrell
The Four Tops
Gladys Knight and the
Pip's
The O"Jays and
The Dells
This Man made the careers of many many great entertainers
Who weren't a one hot wonder
Gordy started as a child with a vision that he brought to life
Gordy created entertainers that gave the world an experience that no one had ever experienced before
The Man is a genius
Gordy should have been the only honoree on this night
It has nothing to do with Temtations or The Supremes but very well done applause to the artist
Some of em. Tribute acts at best !
Love November 10th
Lovely
