Remember, brothers and sisters, it's like my Dad used to tell me, "When you borrow something from someone, try to give it back better than when you got it." These folks sure did the song justice, God bless.
Excellent cover.. I listened to massive attacks cover aswel but much prefer this 1.. the only other song that I prefer the cover to the original is nirvana's cover of man who sold the world..
You did justice to a classic song!!! Growing up in those time couldn't get any better! At 65 life is great! The era was once in a lifetime, if you were born and grew up with all of those beautiful master pieces you were truly blessed. I would not have change it for all of the money in this WORLD!!! Music was Music with so much meaning to it. It was always song from their heart. You know when you heard your song on the radio, it hit you right in the heart! Continue doing music like this!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
@ra-londraplair7482 • say that again even though I was born in 71 had 11 other siblings that were older than myself. What an exciting time to be alive! Our house was always lots of singing, dancing plus mom was always singing at the auditorium and on WDIA radio along with her group. If you were born after maybe 73 or 74 no doubt you missed the mark. All I can say is memories, memories, memories most older generation I knew has passed on but they were longevity type of people and men were MEN‼️‼️‼️
I was 13 when this came out. At 65 life for me is great as well. This song is part of the soundtrack of my life. Y'all understood the assignment. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
WOW! Cold Blooded!!!! This is it! They captured the simple, mellow, message that the original piece put down. I was there back in 74 fresh back from Nam and trying to get it together. This song means a lot to me way to go. The trombone is the real deal!!!! I love it!
@@beverlyreed4198 I don't think they say angels but they're definitely not saying antenna either.. can't find the lyrics to this cover and can't make out whats been said now.. but your comment brought it to my attention 😅 it sounds like ainta.. tbh it's doing my head in now hahaha was always more into the music then the lyrics all along 😂
@@keiraodonovan6600 yes they are …. They don’t have clue what they’re singing about … I’m done … I don’t go back and forth when. I know the truth… it’s not a big deal … have a good day
I’m 57 and I’m grateful that I have still have my mom and my dad in spite of our difficulties and issues that have come because of my dad’s abuse. I have learned that it could have been worse. I used to be mad at my mom because she never left my dad. I went to counseling and therapy and I have talked to a lot of men. Boys need their dads and girls need their mothers. Me and mom talked after many years later and agreed that life would have been worse without my dad. I’m the oldest of 10 7 brothers and 2 sisters. I have been in therapy since I was 20 , I’m 57 today. My parents have been divorced for 20 years and we have all managed to keep a decent relationship with each other. My parents are getting older. My mom is 76 and my dad is 79. And I truly am blessed to still have them. Even though we have our differences I just try to talk to them. My mom gets it but my dad doesn’t. And that’s okay. Not everyone gets it. At least I still have him and we all still love each other.
Ditto I'm 64😢My daughter got mad at me n won't talk to me. I can't see my granddaughters. It's bad this time. All cz she found out I was talking to her x husband SMH. HAPPY HOLIDAYS...
@@Tech1493McKinziepest-sm6kmanother ditto! I'm 64😮. I can't keep trying to make up for her bad childhood. My husband of 26 yrs was addict n an abuser. All I do will never be enough for her She's mad at me. He beat on me not my 2 daughters. They're still well rounded woman in spite all the bs...
The original is by William DeVaughn (NOT Curtis Mayfield as some erroneously report) and was done phenomenously by Pepe Marquez, in tandem with a cover of Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes' "You Know How To Love Me." Please give them both a listen. This version is pleasant enough but a little slowed down for my taste, though Ricky Luchesse's trumpet solo at 5:07 gives it just the spice it needs to register on my Richter scale! There are at least eleven different covers on this song by bands of different backgrounds and I am glad to finally see the song getting the recognition it deserves, from all quarters!
@UjimaJame Here! Here! Well said! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Yes. Its a trombone 🤷🏽♀️ I know exactly what you’re saying tho. This was one of my favourite’s from the day it came out and I heard it at the club! Bought the 12inch and STILL have it! For me, the ‘feels’ was the harmonies entrance at 2:07 👍🏾👍🏾
Try the cover by Daryl Hall (Hall and Oates) and Rumer singing at "Daryl's House" personal studio. Not saying it's better. Just different. This cover is outstanding.
William DeVaughn kept driving to get his music out. He was a Jehovah's Witness. Many tried to rip him off. But he was a good man and persisted and got this produced in Motown. Then he returned to his humble beginnings going door to door seeking contributions for Jesus. You can't make this up. Oh my Lord. Just be thankful for what you got. And God Bless William and Peace Be with that Brother forever. And Peace and gratitude be with you all. Cause that's what he and Jesus would've wanted. And no, I don't drive no great big Cadillac.
Anytime I see "Just Be Thankful (For What You Got)", I'll stop what I'm doing and listen. I'm thankful for your video. Watching y'all playing musical instruments is an added treat. Keep on the 'smooth' path. I really hope you had as much enjoyment playing as I did listening.
I been smooth all my life since birth in 1955. This song was me in 1974 with my home boys in Columbus, Ohio riding around jamming smooth jazz and smoking good weed.
BE A MASTER IN WHAT YOU LOVE..... OOOOOH MY LORD THE TROMBONIST KILLED IT!! NAILED IT!!! WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT.... A TROMBONIST COULD TAKE SOLO ON THIS JAMM??? HE STOLE THE SONG AND GAVE IT BACK!!! A FKING MASTER!!!!! MY HAIRS ARE STANDING!!!! PS: THE DRUMMER, CONGAS, ORGANIST, BASS AND OF COURSE THE VOCALISTS, THE WHOLE BAND NAILED THIS CLASSIC GREAT TO HEAR OTHER ARTISTS THROW DOWN ON A GREAT CLASSIC!!! THANK YOU X 1 MILLION!!!!!! LOL OMG THE JOY OF MUSIC!!!
@@Drkblu58 You are so right. I looked it up and Mr. William DeVaughn not only sang it, he wrote it. Thank you. 😊 I will fix my comment…👍🏼 The embarrassing part is, it tells you who sang it under the video. 🫣
I was 20 years old a white guy that rose a lot of hell and my brothers in arms in that war I love you all. Never did get that Cadillac but got a Corvette later in life after being homeless and in the creek
No they have not nailed it. They do not have the lived the experience ..I can hear it. I lived the experience the source of the song. They are technically good.
@@weldonwebb889 give me a break dude. You like rap? Majority of those rappers have not lived the life they claimed they have. Including Tupac. This is the only version of this song I've saved to my playlist, they did an amazing job on this one, I get goosebumps listening to that hook
Cold Blooded, this sounds AWESOME, oh my goodness William Devaugh would be proud if he were here to here it the trombone sounds Amazing I mean the whole arrangement is beautiful, the keys, the guitar, the background singers, I have added this on my playlist.❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰😘👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥👩🏾👩🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️
Such a great authentic cover with all the heart to drive the message home. In this age of greed and feeling of lack. We should be grateful for what we've got ❤

Really nice cover of one of my favorite songs growing up 70's and 60's. Like the larger band and all the added instrumentation too. Vocals are very much on point with the feeling behind this piece of old school poetry. wow. so warm! 😎

I haven't heard this in a long time. Nice to hear and this group did a great performance..reminds us to be grateful for what we have. Instrumentals exceptional. 2-26-2024.USA
Wow I am 70 and remember when the original came out. This BLOWS it away!! Fantastic vocals and each instrument is played with affection to perfection!! I am looking at tour dates. To bad I don't live in Sacramento. Harlows is a great venue. Continued success.....hard not to achieve that when you love what you do.❤
Just sent the original version to a friend...you showed up equally as good and smooth.Updated an incredible song while keeping true to the original. Awesome job!
Remember, brothers and sisters, it's like my Dad used to tell me, "When you borrow something from someone, try to give it back better than when you got it." These folks sure did the song justice, God bless.

@@mberbae you're right...I liked it!
Con quien es la original, me encantaría escucharla. Gracias
@@mberbae si también es maravillosa, la he escuchado con El. Tiene buena música
Wow.. they took it to another level. Man how can I get that song
That's a sensational amount of soul. Really captured the smooth '70's vintage feel. Had to pull it at Apple Music in Lossless.
Thank you for posting this song
Beautiful version. Thank you.
