You were born right into an incredible tidal wave of all modern popular music - not bad timing. You've lived all of it, and are still here. The young-uns can never know your journey.
Linda musica yo tenía 14 años fue mi época de oro amo esos momentos actualmente tengo 55 y me siento joven cuando las escucho... saludos desde Jalisco México.
Dopo tanto tempo , ancora questa canzone rimane una delle più belle di sempre , sezione ritmica mostruosa ,batterista che ha una pacca sul rullante incredibile , bassista di una tecnica e un gusto musicale fantastico , il capo ( il chitarrista che trascina la canzone dall'inizio sino alla fine , le cantanti bravissime e belle, i fiati impeccabili, e tutto il resto del gruppo all'altezza di un grande gruppo di musicisti ,complimenti ,siete eccezionali ,grazie .

Chic was a band led by bass player Bernard Edwards and guitarist Nile Rodgers. Both musicians were very successful songwriters and producers, combining to work on hits for Sister Sledge and Diana Ross. Edwards went on to produce for The Power Station, Joe Cocker and Robert Palmer, while Rodgers worked with the likes of Mick Jagger, David Bowie and Madonna❕ Rodgers and Edwards authored “Le Freak” after they were denied access to a trendy nightclub. It was New Year’s Eve, 1977, and they were invited to Studio 54, a very popular club in New York City where many celebrities and trendsetters hung out. Singer Grace Jones wanted them to do some production work for her, and asked them to come down to the club as her guests. When they got there, they were not on the list, and couldn’t persuade the doorman to let them in. All dressed up and nowhere to go, they left and started crafting “Le Freak” as a reply to the doorman. (Studio 54 is mentioned in the last verse❕) They first called it “F-k Off,” then “Freak Off.” That title sounded lame, but when they made the opening line “Aaaahh Freak Out!”, they came up with a better one : “Le Freak” (1978). This became the bestselling single of all time for Atlantic Records, with 13 million sales. Nile Rodgers knew “Le Freak” was going to be a monster winner even though the record company hated it. AND THE MAN WAS RIGHT‼️ 💚🎵💙
This song brings back so many memories. Back when this song came out,,,, disco dance clubs were just making the scene in Charlotte. Girls flocked to it. So I became that buff country boy who went to a disco on Friday or Saturday night and danced with the chics (see what I did there?) Went home with a different one every weekend. The weekend nights I didn't go I hung out with my buddies, drinking liquor and beer while standing around a bonfire..... which quite often ended in a brawl. ......had a reputation to keep up,...ya know.
Saw Chic at Essence Fest in 2014. Janelle Monae and Chic opened for Prince, who came out and played with each act before he took the stage. Doug E. Fresh kept the crowd going between sets. That was a concert to remember and sadly the last time I saw Prince in concert before he passed away.
Groovy. One of the best versions of this song that I've heard. I like how the beat is exciting but not overwhelming (not just a mess of drums like some other versions).

Muchas parejas alrededor del mundo se enamoraron bailando ésta música. Se casaron, formaron un hogar y aun siguen juntas. La música disco, la mejor época en Guatemala.
Olha só. Voltei aos anos 70, 80, 90. Era um sucesso. Marcou muito. A galera só nos passinhos. Foi uma época qy podemos nos orgulhar de ter vivido. Eram várias bandas fazendo as discotecas tremerem. Mais tudo tem começo, meio e fim. Acabou.
Tempo maravilhoso 💖, eu amava quando no clube tocavam essa música, e maravilhosa , era os anos 70 hoje e 22 Nilópolis RJ. E continuo mesmo com 62 curtindo esse som maravilhoso 💕
This song brings back memories! Hearing it on thradio on American Top 40, seeing in the newspaper that it would burst into the top 10, and then, years later, doing it as karaoke at my work place! As I said, great memories.
Sax base trumpet drums vocals incredible talented. They playing with such a easy way like when someone taking breath without thinking.this is the result of countless outs of practicing where they achieved perfection. When I hear what today new generation listen I just don’t understand how they like the taste of false vocals and all voice corrected singers who sang soulless music. I also great full for the time when I growing up and anything played on radio was great. Remember how many time was running home from street just to press the record button on the tape recorder to catch the song an many time missed then the song was whole day repeating in my head for the whole day :)
Cómo no se va a extrañar está musica padrisima , y aquellos años de nuestra juventud , que había tantas rolas hermosas , recordar es volver a vivir , verdad de Dios.
I have had the tremendous pleasure of seeing him and his current crew twice while touring the USA with Duran Duran in 2015-2016 - dazzling and spectacular!!!!
Ascoltavo questo gruppo all eta' di 7 anni ,ho una sorella molto più grande di me ,e andavano questi gruppi a dir poco bellissimi ,e più volte l'ho ascolto ,ed è sempre più piacevole ,ti fa' muovere i fianchi .😁
It's all about Joy and Music ...simple music, but great taste and excellent bass playing with Nile's rhythm guitar playing, Bravooo :-) Could never boring to listen this track.
He's a very good player, not doubt, but the question is taste. It isn't about notes per second. On the original, the bass wouldlead into the next part. This player is following the music all the time, and that takes away the sense of advanced swoop that was in the original as the next verse started for example. Rhythm on bass is a combination of beats and occasional sustain. That contrast makes the bass funky. 70% slap content is about making the bass a virtuoso instrument, while what is needed is the complement to what Nile is doing on electric guitar.
I taught Jazz ballet during the 70s and 80s. I had the best music to work with from this era . I’m now 70 and still move to the music
Me too!! Wow what a time in the Disco.. I were young 19 to 22..hihi..Oh those Satuday-Nights so long..wow
You were born right into an incredible tidal wave of all modern popular music - not bad timing. You've lived all of it, and are still here. The young-uns can never know your journey.
ladies and gentlemans the best and biggest legend of pop music, Nile Rodgers and chic!!! love it for ever!!!
Bassist is frikking heaven his rips are mind blowing
今63ですが、高3のころから、聞いてました。シックは、懐かしいくて、涙がでます。TH-camで聞けるのは、有りがたいです、
The musicianship is on point like nobody’s business ! Loved this hit growing up in 70s. 53 now and it still love it now!
Me too!!!!!
I am slowly pulling out of freaking depression. Hell with the world, God is good to me ALL OF THE TIMES! AMEN!
Good comment man,God bless you!🙏

Everything about this song is pure perfection. Thats why it will last forever.

Bass,, guitar, rhythm, singers, brass and drums, brilliant performance
A song that should be played every day on all radio stations all over the world !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
absolute truth !!!
it was in the year 1977
This song got us on the dance floor back in 1979?!!
We had the best music in the '70s and early '80s. I had so much fun dancing to this song! I'm in my 70s and miss this kind of music.
2024 still sounds good ❤
GREAT performance!
Still sound soo fresh...wayyy ahead of its time.
It takes top level musicians to pull off this funky tight dance groove. The bass is the drive.
あー懐かしいや、懐かしいや、よく聴いていました。🎶👍👍👍
That bass player is out of this world, he's off the charts good
Jerry Barnes
Yes, it's okay. I think the same.

Pocas veces se puede apreciar semejantes musicos e interpretes ,realmente para escucharlos por horas !!!!.

Un tema que me transporta a esas noches de discoteque en las playas de mi país.
Cómo no recordar esas noches maravillosas.
Chic. Fabulosos
This great tune never gets old; It is a song for ages to listen to and enjoy!

Precious testimony, thank you... RIP Prince
Sadly?!! Damn, you're the envy of so many! What I'd give to have seen Prince play with Nile Rogers (two of my favorite musicians ever!) and Chic!
Sounds fab!
正にファンクギターの定番😂

....і скільки б не дивився-не налюбуюся!...Чорні-є чорні!..Емоція,смак,природне відчуття-це просто неймовірно...!!!👏👏👏
Whether it’s the string section in the original version, or the brass section in this live version, going up the scale just knocks me out.
Cómo no se va a extrañar está musica padrisima , y aquellos años de nuestra juventud , que había tantas rolas hermosas , recordar es volver a vivir , verdad de Dios.
