When I was a kid, Millie Jackson scared the hell out of me. When she said listen to the clock on the wall I listened. Funny my son was afraid of Grace Jones.
It's almost 3:00 in the morning and I'm listening to Millie J and all I'm missing is a Crown Royal and Coke with a twist of lemon!!! I love me some Millie J, no one else like her... The youngins of today don't have nothing on her!!! Thanks so much for this post and bringing back the memories.
@@basimbambaataa9655 Cheers to you my friend. Funny how time slips away, I wrote that 9 yrs ago!!! I still love me some Millie Jackson. Stay safe, happy and well.
@@OakCliffTX82 Something about 3 in the morning you wanna educate me about, cause I was up at 3:00 9 years ago listening to the talented Millie Jackson.
Love this. Very raw version of this soul classic. Her voice reminds me of Gladys Knight but with a rawer edge. I agree with most of the comments. Soul music at it's finest.
Ms. Millie is totally educating us all about extramartial affairs. It's required listening for all who want to play in that arena. Millie is an old school performer that knows what to do with what she has! You go Millie!
Holy SHIT this is the first Millie Jackson song/skit I've ever watched and I think I might be in love. She got some killer pipes AND she's got music cues for her jokes. That's a fuckin entertainer right there.
We had to go upstairs when I was a kid when Millie Jackson was playing ("Nasty records indeed!"). But in the projects, we could listen through the vents! And I'm glad I did, now I have a very happy man! LOL!
What an incredible and classy lady. She's one of the great performers like Elvis or Liberace and all the greats who lead the band instead of just being a part of the whole group. She commands the stage.
Band is hella tight! They funkin hard man. Millie is AWESOME, a master talent and incomparable performer the arrangement and the "rapping" on this is mind blowing, and to top it off to have a daughter blessed with a beautiful voice as well....
HELL Yeah! PASSION is serious thang,, it's emotional/mental...If your level of passion is on time,,, that's sexiness in itself. Millie keeps it so 4REAL..
I had a tape of her live performance. I believe it was from this one here. I was 13 when I heard it...she blew me away. I LOVED HER MUSIC! Such RAW emotion.
The 'album' version of this,(besides being the version you should use for a fair comparison), is the opening number of the greatest R&B concept LP/CD ever,(& a huge hit in 74-75): "Caught Up", 6 songs that dig uncomfortably deep into the real implications of living the life this song portrays. In the end, Luther's excellent, sensitive reading pales to Millie's fire.
The DIVINE Miss Jackson! On record and (especially) on stage, she was outrageously funny and BRUTALLY HONEST. When it came to love & cheating, she spoke on it!!!
esa voz!!!!!enorme,brutal,ya no existen fieras como Millie,la artista negra con peor vocabulario de la historia y a la vez con un glamour descomunal.amo a esta mujer
I remember back in 86 some little sharp dressed Mexican dude jumped on stage and started grinding against her. She lifted up her leg and said, lord have mercy! The audience ate it up, so funny.
Ms. Millie Jackson is a true ENTERTAINER!!! I had the honor of seeing her live a number of times and the last time was in the Essence Lounge at the Essence Festival and she put on a fantastic performance. She always told the truth. Thanks for the posting.
i like your very creative version of the "If loving you is wrong" Lyric Millie..u just have a sentimental angel like voice...hope to hear more of your stuff
My girlfriend just sent this to me. I am familiar with the original version by Joe Simon but this is the first time I've heard Millie's version. Nice, very nice.
Great Clip. Millie Is The Truth. Back In The Day When My Parents Used To Play This Stuff I Was To Young The Get It. Couldn't Understand Why She Always Talked So Much On Her Records, But I Get It Now. She Put It Out There, Good Or Bad She Let You Know What Was Up.
Love the fact at the end she included a Gladys Knight song, in which she says was her favorite singer, and the fact that they sound alike. She always said, if she goes to hell, it'll be because she had to get dirty to get away from Gladys Knight,(she's such a lady).
"But J 1 the man came on in like he was supposed too !" I tell a man anything he feel like he MIGHT wanna hear! You can think of a whole lot of good ishh to tell a brotha when ya by yaself! She said I don't wanna leave you with a one sided mis conception ! What a honest song I love it
I just love it when she breaks into monologue after she sings. Best part of her performances!!

😂😂😂😂😂
For the record, she's one hell of a performer.
Have you viewed her song slow tongue? 👅
The 15 dislikes are the women who had their men turned out by Millie Jackson. You go girl. Tell 'em how it is.
Nobody screams and hollers like Millie. These young kids today sing to pretty for me. Where the real singers at?

3:45 am, Millie got me rollin
I made one for both of us. Cheers!

Millie Jackson,is the best from seventies to date,her music never dies!!
Whether you hate her or love her, no one can deny that she is a true DIVA!
I Love her so I'm on your side💚.
Conduct a study to see if no one says she is not a diva.
You right, she can't sing, she can SANG!!!!!!!!!!!
she not just a singer, she a story teller.
looks like Donna Summer and sounds like Gladys Knight with a sore throat.I love your honesty Millie
Jesus, my thoughts exactly.
Love this. Very raw version of this soul classic. Her voice reminds me of Gladys Knight but with a rawer edge. I agree with most of the comments. Soul music at it's finest.
You are the MOST sexiest black woman that ever sang on a stage. Forget Beyonce, Mary J and Tina Turner. You are the Queen.

SOOOO rite!
Sensational singer.
As far as I'm concerned, Ms Millie Jackson is the best artist alive. PERIOD.
Бомба! Який вибух експресії та чуттєвості!! Я в захваті від Міллі!!!
That band is killing!!!!
I love this woman. Thank God I had the opportunity to see her LIVE twice! She is GREAT! Love you Millie J.
Wow. Live would have been feckin brilliant
Brings me back to my childhood days. I would sit in my dads hot pickup with the 8track blasting. Love you MS. JACKSON.....
We had to go upstairs when I was a kid when Millie Jackson was playing ("Nasty records indeed!"). But in the projects, we could listen through the vents! And I'm glad I did, now I have a very happy man! LOL!
This is real singing right here, pure soul. Millie Jackson is fantastic.
Yes my dad use to play these what mom use to call, "nasty records."
Well I wish I was grown back then I would have loved to see her in concert
What an incredible and classy lady. She's one of the great performers like Elvis or Liberace and all the greats who lead the band instead of just being a part of the whole group. She commands the stage.
Taking me back to that good stuff. Thank you.

Band is hella tight! They funkin hard man. Millie is AWESOME, a master talent and incomparable performer the arrangement and the "rapping" on this is mind blowing, and to top it off to have a daughter blessed with a beautiful voice as well....
absolutely beautiful... love her stage performances
HELL Yeah! PASSION is serious thang,, it's emotional/mental...If your level of passion is on time,,, that's sexiness in itself. Millie keeps it so 4REAL..

Hell yeah... Millie Jackson ... I will always remember her... Brilliant Artist....Love her Voice and i Love her Soul....
Love her... reminds me of the good old days
I got addicted to this woman early in the 80s and I can't just off her. I have bought everything she has sung over and over again.
Soul at is's finest.She gives me chills.Thank you Millie.
oh my god what a MASTERPIECE...yesterday i've heard the LP version from CAUGHT UP and every time i listen to this song it left me whitout words...
A song that was originally recorded by Luther Ingram taken to another level by one of the most underrated artists, Millie Jackson!!
Damn Millie......you are something else!!!! I love you!
Miss Mildred Virginia Jackson is a great entertainer.
What a joy to see her excitement for performing. Classic J. Thomas Lounge song in Houston, Texas.
That rawer edge you hear is the difference between a true contralto and a low mezzo soprano.
I had a tape of her live performance. I believe it was from this one here. I was 13 when I heard it...she blew me away. I LOVED HER MUSIC! Such RAW emotion.
Lol i love this woman! Literally just found this today. She is preaching at the end 😂
Love her listened to her all through the 80's! Best singer ever!
She was & is a true entertainer
She got soul...!!!!!

Cause you're the landlord!!!! And the keeper..... Of our love. 🙌
Thas a Gladys Knight song.
