The one think about Chaka is, she doesn’t know how great she really is. Her influence on the world is legendary. She truly is the greatest of all time to me
Hi I'm from New Zealand 🇳🇿 I was 14 yrs old when my music teacher played this song to us during class, wow is what we all said and I have been a Chaka Khan fan ever since! Thank you Mrs Clare you rock 😘
OMG... THIS IS JUST BEAUTIFUL...This Song & entire "ALBUM" was and is still Masterpiece of music, singing by Chaka. Arif Mardin & Chaka were powerful magic together & never heard her do this LIVE....THANK YOU 4 This Masterpiece
First time Ever hearing her sing it LIVE in all the years since her first solo lp was released in 1978. This has always been my favorite CK ballad (Solo or with Rufus) and once again Chaka sings..........My Favorite Female Vocalist DM (Pgh,PA.)
@@darrylgaines2540 No Mr Darryl i did not,I've never seen her perform live. A close girlfriend from Clairton i grew up with her Sister seen her in concert last year & sent me a picture Chaka had taken with her i wish i could send it to you? i don't know how on this platform. DEAN
Chaka Khan is so underrated on so many levels. Her beauty is without question and she was blessed with a signature voice. What has surprised me is her longevity in the business, how she has adapted to tastes in music, and how she is visible in the business yet her personal / family life is not the subject of intense gossip. She appears very real and was a loyal friend to Whitney at the time her passing and called out Clive Davis appropriately.
One of my top and favorite songs from this dazzinling Queen, my Chicago Hommie. Her range is remarkable. This came out while I was station in Frankfurt Germany, and provide me with a bit of home.

Certainly one of my favorite Chaka Khan songs, I've always wondered why it wasn't played in continuing rotation on radio stations🤔😏 Especially during gospel segments.
Wow! Just absolutely splendid, imo, better than the actual recording. The range, nuances, and color of that voice on full display here. Sooo melodic to my ears as her presence is to my eyes!🌹😘🙌🏽
@@onlygafabotwhatigafbout8495 Absolutely!!!! This performance is a prime example of her unique gift and why she's, imo, incomparable. There's no other voice like Chaka's.
@@onlygafabotwhatigafbout8495 I've always thought from 1970-1980 were the BEST SOUL SONGS recorded Male and Female solo artists & vocal Groups alike. I still listen to the 1970's Soul Music. DM
LOVE THIS CLASSIC SONG FROM HER FIRST SOLO ALBUM 'CHAKA'. I'M EVERY WOMAN WAS ALSO ON THIS ALBUM. THE WHOLE PRODUCTION OF THIS WAS FANTASTIC, SHE CAN DO KNOW WRONG 😎🎤HER VOICE IS STRONG & UNIQUE. SHE STILL SOUNDS LIKE THIS TO THIS VERY DAY. THERE IS ONLY ONE CHAKA KHAN 🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎼💓💞🔥🌷
One of my favorite songs from her that so many people are unaware of.I would go to the library in Oak park IL and instead of studying I would go to the music section where you sit at a booth and listen to albums and I'd play this song like 5 times in a row. Lol

Chaka Khan is: Phenomenal! Precision. Tone. Timbre.. Pitch. Breath. Consummate Diva and Legend. The best instrument: Her Voice.
The one think about Chaka is, she doesn’t know how great she really is. Her influence on the world is legendary. She truly is the greatest of all time to me
All I can say is she makes all that belting look so easy. No wonder Whitney and Cissy loved her.
The fact that she sounds even better live, than on the record speaks volumes. I love me some Chaka Khan. Thank you so much for this rare footage.
You're welcome!
What? This is a dream come true, to hear and see this. One of the most gifted vocalist ever.
This is my most favorite Chaka song ever. The lyrics are amazing
"Water wash away all traces of hate" gets me everytime. Chaka is my favorite artist of all time there is none like her.
I never knew what she was singing on that line [since 1978] Thank You + I've seen other artists cover this song but none as well as CK.
WoW another Chaka Fan cause i just posted that message 5 minutes ago and you replied that fast 🙂 Good Night & Merry Christmas. DEAN MARTELL 🙏🏽✝️
👊 W O R D. 👊 THERE IS NO ONE. NO ONE LIKE HER. ♥️♥️ U CHAKA.
Love You Empress Chaka!💖
i realize it is kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good site to watch new series online ?
Omg She Was Beautiful and So Humble and Her Voice Was So Amazing Chaka KHAN is The Voice Of Life.💯💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Chaka Khan is a gift from my GOD for the world to enjoy., Thank You Lord.
Her voice is supernatural. Her modulation, specifically at 02:32 through 0240, that transition and control is mind blowing.
Yes indeed! One of my favorite moments of this performance, including 03:47 until the song fades out.
You got that right
'CHAKA KHAN' I BEEN CHILL, LOST MY WILL💋💋💋
Magnificent! I never thought I’d hear this live. This is a power ballad! I need to hear her sing Love Has Fallen On Me as well. Thank you for sharing!

Mine also. Was hooked the first time I've heard her and Rufus TMSG.
Did you see her at The Stanley Theatre ?

Written by David Lasley. It was recorded by a group he was a member of (Rosie) before Chaka covered it. You can find it on TH-cam.
This performance was amazing ! From her first solo album “Chaka” away from Rufus!
But actually she was still with the group. Both artists was still climbing the charts.

She was also pregnant with her son in this performance.

Mr P.'s Archives yup! She was only 3 months away from delivering him the DAY before HER 26th birthday.
You should be able to tell she is fully covered at this time Chaka was the leotard Queen otherwise
