    Honey, that's STEVIE WONDER on the harmonica...and yes, this is a bonafide 80s classic...this song was EVERYWHERE around 1984-85, in the clubs, at the parties and definitely on the dance floors...this was a true b-boy classic breakdancing cut, and this video also uses Turbo, Ozone and other dancers from the popular Breakin' movies from 1984 as well...and that's Melle Mel that you hear performing the "let me rock you, Chaka Khan" rap in the song...this is one of the earliest songs that bridged r&b and hiphop together in the 80s....you definitely need to watch some more Chaka Khan videos!

      Let me add to that point, some more info. This song was written by Prince and was on his very first album. They revamped it for Chaka to sing for the Breakin' soundtrack. It really was that song.....because of how popular the movie was. It was the "Save the Last Dance" and "Step Up" before they were an idea.

      She truly is. I've been a fan since she started (with Rufus) in the early 70's and she is one of the best ever. I love her voice, her ability to survive for 40 years in the music business and her philanthropy - trying to help the less fortunate among us. One of the truely great female vocalists from back in the day still going strong. She was one of Aretha's favorites - nuff said.

    This is actually a remake of Prince's "I feel for you" from his 1st album in 1979. The harmonica is Stevie Wonder and the "say yeahhh" sample is a 12 year old Stevie Wonder from his 1st single "Fingertips". Check out Prince's original but this one is better to me.

      Or remember Flavor Flav's intro of her on "Soul Train"! Melle Mel (on the wheels of steel and rap) and Stevie Wonder (on harmonica) did an excellent job on the intro, Prince did an excellent job in the writing department and Chaka - did her thing!

    Hi India ! Chaka Khan is my favorite artist of ALL TIMES . Incredible voice I think if you hear more from her she might be your favorite too. Fun facts about I feel for you : yes thats a harmonica being played - and played by Stevie Wonder as well as a sample of Srevie's voice. Prince wrote the song and did it first but Chaka killed it and made it her own. Classic Chaka you must hear ":Ain't Nobody" "Tell me something good" " Threw the fire" and "I'm every woman". That last one might sound familiar because Whitney Huston covered it and its hard to say who did it best I like both, Some others to check out "Never miss the water" "What cha gonna do for me" "Papilion" "This is my Night" , Thats a lot of somgs and there are many many more. Chaka has had a very long career and its impossible to find a bad Chaka Khan song ...yeah she's that good .

  • @russellboykin2877
    @russellboykin2877 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is a classic. Ms. Khan is in my top 5 female vocalists. Stevie Wonder is on harmonica. This song is originally by the artist “Prince Rodgers Nelson.” Rest in Paradise for all eternity. He left us with a great resume of music to admire. Stevie Wonder wrote “Tell me something good” for Rufus featuring Chaka Khan. Rufus, is the band she started with before departing on her own. Main male dancer in this video is Shabadoo Quinones, who danced on the infamous TV Show “Soul Train.” I went to see her & Rufus perform at “The Orange Bowl” in Miami, Florida. I sat in the middle of the stadium. At one point, she put the microphone down, and started singing without it. The range of her vocals are incredible!!! This woman is “pretty and amazing.”

    The harmonica is a Stevie Wonder sample. The song is from the movie Breakin'. It's absolutely one of my all time favorites. That soundtrack is a huge part of my youth.

    Yes, I'm adding my vote for 'Sweet Thing'. You need to try out some Chaka from the 70's. And, she's still out there and her voice is still amazing.

    This was and still is one of the best songs of the 80's. Such a classic. I can only listen to this at a deafening volume. Anything less and you're not doing the song justice. I agree with everyone though, check out 'Aint Nobody' by Chaka Khan as well. It's another amazing song by her.

    for Breakin the movie!.. "Into the Fire" another great one. I used to dance myself to this album in my room. And then some hair metal... But yeah, Chaka Khan, Full Force, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam.. anyway.. Holding my girl's hand on the band bus.. Thank you Reggie!

    It was also a reunion of sorts because he wrote her First Hit in the 1970's when she was with Rufus when she recorded for ABC Records it was Tell Me Something Good. Also this was an old school song written by Prince and the Rap was done by Grand Master Melle Mel. It was a major comeback for her that went to Number One on The R & B Charts and got her a Grammy for best R & B Performance by a Female. Stevie also played his Harmonica on other folks hits like Elton John's I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues, he played it on Rod Stewart's Soul CD where he did his version of My Cherie Amour, and The Eurythmics "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel"

    First Time I heard it, I was like Chaka Khan is magic. Now, I know that Prince wrote this song, it's even better. Stevie is rad, on the harmonica. I'm all about that pop & lock style dance, since the mid 80's.

  • @jjjppp9133
    @jjjppp9133 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am almost certain that "Harmonica" is the classic Harmonica patch on the Yahama DX7 synth which just came out around the time this song came out. Everyone was using it. The DX7 and 80's pop went hand in hand.

    Ah, Miss Lips and Hips herself. You should check out "Once You Get Started" "Do You Love What You Feel" "Any Love" "Tell Me Something Good " and "Sweet Thing" when she was with Rufus featuring Chaka Khan. Also check out the original "I'm Every Woman", "Clouds" "Through the Fire" "I Know You, I live You" "We Can Work It Out" "What Cha Gonna do For Me" "Papillon" and "Ain't Nobody"

    Okay as others mentioned before, this originally is a song by Prince but it was covered twice before Chaka Khan made it the monster hit it became.
    - The first time by the Pointer sisters who's version is very close to Prince' s original the biggest difference being that the Pointer Sisters' gospel honed three part melody, added some glory to the song's overt sexual lyrics.
    - The second by Rebbie Jackson (MJ's older sister) who removed a lot of the sexual lyrical content. ( For example "Baby, baby when I lay with you" became "Baby, hey when I'm with you.")
