Chaka Khan didn't want to be featured....she was there just to support and back Steve up...Great friends. Great reactions. 😊
But how are you supposed to minimize Chaka??
OMG-until you recognized her, I had no idea Chaka Khan was backing Stevie Winwood! No wonder this track is so next level! That collaboration is WILD!!!!!!!!!!
I agree that Chaka elevates the performance of every artist she pairs with exponentially💥👍✨
Steve with Chaka, you can't get better than that. Steve was a huge fan of her music and was so pleased she agreed to sing with him.
For my money, no one has ever done a better version of this song than the original by Stevie Winwood. Gorgeous track on so many levels!
Been enjoying Mr. Winwood going all the way back to Spencer Davis. His "Arc of A Diver" lp is golden. Practically a one man masterpiece. Musical genius. Steve and Chaka, wow what a classy couple.
Steve has been doing this since he was fourteen and with the Spencer Davis Group, then the band Traffic, then the band Blind Faith, then back to Traffic and then his solo career. This is a fine tune, and with Nile Rodgers on guitar and Chaka Kahn with backup vocals lending their talent, you can't go wrong!

Everybody needs to get their help Bailey. I love my hair belly😅😅😅😅😅
Anyone who doesn't love this song is just dead inside..❤💙💛💜
Great song by Steve Winwood. Cool is his middle name.
This man's career has been going strong since the early 60's Dozens of great tunes. Steve is at his best with.... Traffic - "Dear Mr. Fantasy"

Yes, Dear Mr Fantasy is my favorite Traffic song & one of my favorites of Steve's.
Have you played the 4 seasons? They are great!!
.I don't want to sound like a punk. But, when I see people today in 2024 getting their spirit lifted hearing music from my generation it gets me very emotional. It means the music from my youth survived time and decades to come to touch people years later. There is no better feeling than watching this type of GENUINE reaction to my music from back in the day. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Chaka did “Precious Lord Take My Hand” with Gladys Knight and Etta James. I felt so sad for Gladys and Etta. Chaka will steal the show no matter who she’s singing with.
Why would you feel sad for Gladys and Etta? They are music ICONS - who paved the way for singers like Chaka. And all THREE of them have had massive success and popularity over the past several decades.
@@jeannieschmidt2217 True. I felt sad because I love both of them but when Chaka let go of that voice, it was like Freddie Mercury singing next to Ringo and Bob Dylan. She was that stunning.
@@Just_Klaatu Not everyone is a belter like Chaka or Whitney. But it doesn't make them any less talented or loved by their fans.
Chaka Kahn singing with Rufus, Tell me Something Good” is hot as Sun.
A great match, Chaka's powerful voice took this song to another level.
And Nile Rodgers
That didn’t look like Nile on guitar. Did he produce it?
@@Just_Klaatu he played guitar
@@johntremmel3949 I wonder if he played guitar in the studio but that guy looked 25 pounds heavier than Nile, especially in the 80s.
@@Just_Klaatu no that’s him
He played studio and video
One of the instantly recognizable "voices" in rock music. Been puttin' it out there for more than 50 years. Also love Talkin Back To The Night.
I like that you used the Swedish/Yiddish word. It’s extremely hip. “smorgasbord”
1. a buffet meal of various hot and cold hors d'oeuvres, salads, casserole dishes, meats, cheeses, etc.
2. *an extensive array or *variety of things.
The company has a smorgasbord of employee benefits.
This is one of a handful of songs that can lift my spirits and even get me dancing from the get-go. It builds, which pulls you into the song. Then you have the horns which take you higher, to church even, like a blast of hot air. Then you have the rhythm section grounding you, pulling you into your feet where you feel the funk and bass. Like you said, it's the PERFECT song with all the right elements that work. I personally like Chaka taking a back seat on this one, because she adds just enough effervescence to put highlights on Steve's vocals. Thanks for reacting. You are always so enthusiastic and I love it.
Next level musicians... Fun reaction to watch. Thanks 😊
Saw him perform this song, and several others, live when he was touring the US in 1991.
When Steve performed this on Letterman’s show, Paul Shaffer whom I respect tremendously as a musician was making excuses ahead of time in case the band screwed it up and said it was one of the hardest songs they had ever had to learn. The video is on TH-cam. To be honest, they, not Steve, struggled to keep up. But they won my respect as a musician.
Nile Rodgers from Chic was on guitar.
Winwood is magic..Blind Faith..Can't Find My Way Back Home
I love your reactions, and you are one of my favorites because you don't stop the music every minute LOL
The exquisite Chaka Khan.
Chaka Khan singing with Stevie on this track!❤
This song was Huge! We ALL knew it was Chaka which makes me think she did get mentions. Chaka Kahn JUST got inducted into the 2023 Rock n Roll Hall of Fame :-D
Please, "Can't find my way Home." Find the video of him playing outside in the snow, by a fire on his acoustic guitar. he's probably in his mid to late 60s in this particular video, but its unbelievably good. He has to at least 75 or 76 years old now.
Whaaat?? No interuptions?? Just subscribed . Thank you JMBOY for letting the song do all the talking.🙏🙏🙏
It is unexpected, as one of that area, to hear Chaka Kahn being referred to in any way as a "backup singer" in this performance. Chaka Kahn was/is a Superstar in her own right. Whenever I see this song credited, it is by Steve Linwood, Featuring Chaka Kahn. I would suggest that instead of the term "backup singer", the term "Co-Star" or "Guest Star" to be a better fit. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing you experience this for the first time.
This was one of my favorites in high school!!!❤❤❤❤
His resonance is sick. Then paired with the incomparable Chaka Khan = 🔥
Chaka made this song. Steve Windwood is great, he's a legend, but Chaka put the soul on it it needed.
Facts
Massive talent since he was a kid.14 when he joined Spencer Davis Group.
I mentioned it when you did Roll With it, but you gotta find the video for Keep On Runnin' from them. Steve was 16 or 17 and it was their first number one I believe. Fantastic performance!
Another one from this album is Back in the High Life Again. Valerie is another later solo worth checking out.
Arc Of A Diver is a recommendation from the album of the same name that he did everything on as mentioned before. He's a singer, songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist, and more.
As others have mentioned, along with exploring his early days with Spencer Davis Group - Traffic and Blind Faith. Clapton always gets the spotlight in the early groups he was in but he wanted to be in a group with Steve and that's how Blind Faith supergroup happened,
Great reaction! Thanks. :)
Steve Winwood and Al green had 2 of the greatest voices I've ever heard.
Great tune and I always think of Chaka Khan when I hear this song because her backing vocals can't be ignored. Very popular song back in the day.
Steve Winwood and Chaka Kahn. Nice! The production, the arrangement, so very eighties pop. "Higher Love" 1986. When you're ready for more from Steve Winwood check out "While You See A Chance" from 1980 as well as Traffic "Freedom Rider" from 1970. Also check out Chaka Khan at 21. Tell Me Something Good - Rufus | The Midnight Special (July 5, 1974) -- th-cam.com/video/3Fbwok5caD8/w-d-xo.html
Will there ever be another decade with musical talent this big. So happy to have lived this decade in my youth.
I've had this LP sinve back in the day. Enjoy! 😎
❤CHAKA KAHN❤
That's what I like about a lot of artists. They all knew each other, did collabs and background vocals with no credit needed.
A quick flick thru the comments and no one has mentioned his one album stint with Blind Faith. 'Sea of Joy' is fantastic as are many of the Spencer Davis Group songs, such as 'Keep on Running'.
Thanks JM. Cheers✌
Chaka!!❤
❤great reaction to a great song ❤❤❤
IMO this is one of the most beautiful songs ever created.
Hi to everyone!
I find that here the star is Steve Winwood, i'm sorry to make someone angry but really he was since the middle '60 singing and playing (many instruments!)....
I'm sure you've plugged into Spencer Davis Group with a young 16 years old Steve Winwood singing "I'm a Man" or "Gimme Some A Lovin". Stevey cut his soulful chops in that Motown era and through Traffic, Blind Faith and his long solo career, he is beyond compare, a class of his own.
One of the most gorgeous videos too!
Pure class, always loved it & the movie it’s attached to. ❤
Check out early Steve winwood traffic
Steve Winwood usually played most of the instruments on his solo albums
Yesyesyesyesyes!! Battin 1000!!! 😊
That was the 80,s lol
John JR Robinson on drums. Nile Rogers on rhythm guitar
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😊
LISTEN to the Album / Record. It has a longer part for Chaka Khan
Steve is a brother in Christ, and has been for a while, along with his buddy Eric Clapton.
So cool.
Chaka's label wouldn't allow her to be a co-artist against her wishes. Right after her run of 3 big hits in 84 to 86. What you see and hear is probably the limits under her contract and she probably had to fight for that. It was a #1 hit in the US. Another bad call by record execs.
EVERYTHING about this song is great! I have loved it since it first came out. The instruments/music/beat, the vocals (by BOTH of them), the lyrics (& meaning). EV-ER-Y-THING was good with this - (although the music video was not as good as it could be, as they tried to take away the meaning visually by making it human love. This happened ALL the time in the 80s. Can't have a song with any religious overtones to them - God (haha) forbid!)
It would NOT have mattered to us teens whether it was religious or not! As long as it HAD good music, good vocals & a good (usually energetic & uplifting) beat, we were happy! - religious or not religious - (& NONE of the groups specified any God or belief over any other anyways!)
Too bad music today doesn’t sound this happy.
