Ugh, I cannot stand Chaka...like, I guess she's a good singer and all, but she's such a fucking show off! Everytime she sings with other people on a stage, she's always trying to outshine everyone else. What a selfish bitch!
@hamrto1 She ALWAYS gives her back up singers solos while performing & ALWAYS does the same for muscians. There isnt one live concert that she doesnt. If shes over singing here it could be because the only one who is close to having strong vocals here is Rahsaan the quality is lowmics arent loud but this isnt the best live concert as far as performance vocals. Get a grip
Greg, Detroit still loves you- what an example you have made- for so many to follow! What a blessing to perform with so many talented stars for the universal musical genius of Q!
I have a ton of respect for all these great musicians, but this is kinda a cluster !@#$. The band and the singers keep trying to go to the bridge in weird places and the sound guy feel asleep at the wheel. I love this tune though. Quincy is the man.
When was this?Great Tribute.The man deserves it."Back to back..." That's the only way to go out.So tell me,Quincy.What makes you feel like doin' stuff like that to a sixteen year old?
I really think this is a shameful tribute to a musical genius. What on earth is Nana Mouskouri doing there on stage...and Petula Clarke? I'd be ashamed if my name was Patrice Rushen, Herbie Hancock or Joe Sample
My home girl Ledisi got off at 4:08!!!! SANG LEDISI!!!! WOOO!!!! Behind Chaka....the next two BEAUTIFUL talented ladies that do it for me is Lalah Hathaway and Ledisi!! YES!
I see how disgusting it must be to do your work as a musician, prepare the repertoire in this level...and being fucked by singers wich their only proposal is to shine over the rest of the others...jesus...
At least 75% opf the musicians on that stage that night played on every song of Michael Jackosn's Off The Wall, Thriller & Bad albums. They are the backbone of Mike's re-invention as a solo artist...not to mention they are all employed by Quincy.
Interesting dynamics going on this comment line (LOL). A great tribute for a truly great man. I love all the singers that I recognized. Patti A was working it. I'm new to Beverly Knight but I loved her immensely. For me Ledisi is in the vanguard of the new crop of "sangers" along with Jennifer Hudson and I really don't care what others think but IMO Chaka is the alpha and the omega of wailing singers. period. Stuff Like That is memorable as a classic because of Chakas contribution.
I'm glad you enjoyed Beverley, shes such an underrated talent from the UK and noboy knows who she is despite the fact that in the UK, she can sing any current female singer under the table ten times over. Her and Chaka on this ripped it up, both leading it with their powerful dynamite vocals!
Now if I were on that stage, you would have seen the REAL "Twin Towers"! Not Chaka and Ledsi, but me and Chaka! Chi-Town HOLLA/JUDAH HOLLA! Get READY 4 the RAPTURE! I'm "The Voice" that's going to call "THE VOICE" :JESUS back to the Earth Realm! 4REAL!
You see Ledesi trying to get her sing on next to Chaka mic. Chaka is not trying to share w/ you sis. Chaka looking like girl you better play back-up on this one. BTW I discovered Led music back in 2003 and met her on several occassions. I am truely happy with her sucess but she has changed over the last few years. I seen and heard of her doing some unflattering things. I thought she would of remained humble but she has not. I am hoping that she will not continue in that path.
hupyt, i am a fan of Ledisi as well. What unflattering things have you seen and heard about her.
You are right. No matter how big an artist gets, they should remain humble. That is how the King Of Pop Michael Jackson did it. He kept his success and talent humble and made sure his kids did the same.
Ooooh...i remember buyin this when it came out!!Oh this is FAB!!Anyone notice old Nana (Miskouri) gettin soulful "all up in they-ah",LoL!!Iss not as brilliant as the recorded version,mainly i think,because Chakka seems to be havin mic' problems and on the record she really 'lets rip' with her wailin too...but the sheer enjoyment on everyone's faces is great to observe!!Quincy...man...what a phenomenal genius!!Thank you for posting this...GREAT!!
I think Chaka Khan has one of the greatest voices....sadly her ego is just about as big. Drawing all the attention to yourself if you're together with so many great singers is not very respectfull.
Um...I think NOT! Chaka is the MAIN! somebody other than Patti Austin Quincy Jones wants to see. He's worked with Chaka on many occasions and for the record...Chaka is on of the MOST considerate duet partners to EVER have. She NEVER tries to outshine another person when she's on stage with them, but she does her signature high note to let them know..Don't forget who you're singing with now! But her attitude NEVER! exemplifies that. Chaka is AWESOME! So I disagree with you.
I agree totally- I mean, Chaka DID sing the original recording from 1979, which is why she CAN shine like that! That was 30 years ago, and she can still groove....and STUFF LIKE THAT!!

it's called a "friendly contest" Me and my friends do it all the time. No love lost at all. They all are having fun and laughing & smiling. Somebody always trying 2 stir up something.
DITTO! Well for me it's my 3 favourite singers right now all on one stage - Chaka Khan, Ledisi & Beverley Knight. Those 3 women are FIERCE on the vocals!!
I was actually on the stage! (@ 3:33) One of the most amazing nights of my entire life...performing with so many of my idols on the same stage. WOW! P.S. "3" is my lucky number! CRAZY!!!
@nowphoenix Hey I LOVED the musical arrangement!!!! It was really off the hook!!!! I would've loved to see that performed live, I'm sure it was truely amazing!!!! You musicians played your asses off on that 1 my friend. Keep up the great work.
Petula Clark? Ha! She looks like she was havin' a good old time!
