IT WAS VERY HEALING DUE TO HATRED FOR ME AS AN AMERICAN AND ELDERLY WOMAN OF COLOR LIVING IN ARGENTINA WITH A HORRIBLE HISTORY WHY THERE ARE NO PEOPLE OF COLOR. HOWEVER GOD IS GLOBAL AND KIND PEOPLE ARE EVERYWHERE. JUST SMILE!!!! MARY

      What you just said was so subjective. Of course she has more than "2 great songs". I can roll of 20 off my head. And, she wouldn't have 10 grammys, and 22 nominations (should be more) if she only had "2 great songs". C'mon. SMH. That sounds silly, and highly personal.
      More importantly: What the poster said, who you responded to, can be labelled highly subjective as well. Cause, she's regarded by many of the top musicians; artist; writers; producers etc., as the most influential; imitated singer the past 50 years. Chaka's "greatness" is not how many record she sold, etc., It's in her impact on the business from the moment she stepped on the scene, and how she changed singing, female artist (whether she's widely credited or not on the latter) right up till now. And I say this in the highest sense of the word. So silly.

      She's just does it her way. She stamps her style on it and Red does his thang his way. The instrumental is off the shizizzle. In my opinion it didn't need a lot of people backing up the chorus because it is in unison. I guess it gives them a chance to sing with the Big Dawgs. Awesome performance.

If divas like Roberta, Patti Austin, Patti Labelle, Chaka, Taka Boom, Dionne, maybe a few others, would tour, I'd be at their concert. I miss the old school soul music.

    It's amazing how Quincy can put artists together and help to make such magic happen.
    I found that out with his *Back On the Block* album as he had rappers and jazz vocalists perform on the same songs. Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan singing/scattin', while Kool Moe D, Ice-T, Big Daddy Kane rapped. Plus Chaka and Ray Charles, with a duet, Siedah Garret, Tevin Campbell, and others doing their thing. Fabulous!
    I love Mick Hucknall of *Simply Red* and I love Chaka Kahn, and seeing/hearing them sing this together is wonderful.

    Each time I think Chaka Khan has reached the apex of her talent; she does something brilliant like this. Spectacular, is the way I view it. I don't know how she does it, I'm just happy that she does.

    Well-arranged music by the maestro himself, Quincy Jones. I’m loving the mellow brass sound accompanying the voices. The trombone solo mesmerizes my soul. Well-crafted piece of music with Chaka Khan’s incredible voice...👍🏿

    Here I am sitting in front of my computer almost drooling and letting myself go as in a light trance mesmerized looking at this amazingly gorgeous looking soulful creature with an amazingly powerful voice and good taste in music called Chaka Khan. I look at her and can’t help but stare at those beautiful eyes and those lips and I don’t know what else to say so maybe I’m talking too much so that’s all for now.

    Oh, and the music… can’t ask for more. Simply Red, a pretty soulful singer himself is one of my favorites since I saw him doing “Holding back the tears” and being such a Jazz addict, well, Quincy Jones is the man with the magic touch when it comes to putting together a presentation or recording great artists. Case in point; Miles Davis Live At Montreux (also with Chaka Khan), Michael Jackson’s Off The Wall and that Masterpiece called We Are The World. Nuff said.

    In late 1973 or early 1974, I was working as a recording studio engineer trainee at A&M Records (the last group hired). Benard Ighner who composed "Everything Must Change" was hobbling around on crutches healing from a broken ankle. He invited me into Studio B, sat down at the piano and sang me his delicious song. It had not been released yet. What an honor. I FB messengered with him on 4/22/10. What a treat to reminisce with him. ♥ He signed off "The Best of Life to You" ♥

    Breathtaking stuff!! Almost forgot human beings can produce such beauty through an orchestra of people. It's so sad that so many of our younger generation have never experienced this before and many never will as music exposure becomes so heavily controlled by those who respect only money and have little respect for music as an art form.
