Seriously, you could have given JB a route map and he would have sung it and put the funk on it. No one before him, or after him could bring to a performance what he did. A true entertainer in every sense of the word. The Godfather of style, the Godfather of dance, and was then, is now, and forever will be The Godfather Of Funk 'n Soul. JB, long after all of us are gone, your legendary status will still be here. True quality never dies.
OOPS.....I posted two days ago and poked fun at Catfish and Bootsy just to find out Catfish died a day later. Sorry. R.I.P., Phelps "CATFISH" Collins.
Definetly one of my favourite videos on youtube, never get tired of it. This performance was an absolute masterpiece!! and they say lady gaga has talent, sheesh! we have such low standards these days ...
the greatest hardest working showbisnessman!!!...what a pro!!... LOOK AT SIGNAL HANDS AT 1:30 !!!!, he makes a correction in his band cause doesn't like what he listen...WOW!!!!
this is the best version of this song i have ever herd it is even better than the origional. from ray charles to stevie wonder has even song this song. but james brown has owned this one.
Usher,Chris Brown,Omarion and yes Elvis back da fuck up and bow down to da king. The fans in paris is feeling this cat!, the way it should be. James is the greatest performer of all time hands down, I hope Spike Lee will get blessed to do a documentry about the Man. The new generation needs to witness greatness, instead of this soulja boy shit there being brainwash by.
@ramrodd3 preach on brother!!!!! and the other king PRINCE gets most of his stage presence from the master, AKA THE KING of music period!!!!! ( sorry M J:(
@OropherThranduil I was wrong about chris brown the boy can dance and has talent, all the rest of these new cats need 2 sit down. THE NEW MUSIC SUCKS....OTHREWISE.
Just like the other video... but I love this song. Good quality too. It didn't sound as good when he did this song in Italy. The French go nuts when he dances! Awesome...

Elvis is the King, Usher, Omarion and Chris Brown suck, never mention them again in one sentence with Elvis,
and James was the "The Godfather of Soul", not the King (of Rock'n'roll).
