  • Thank I love what you've done

    

  • What is the link how do I burn this to a CD. HAVE TO HAVE THIS VERSION

  • I love you for this. I tried to find this version every way I knew. I love Lee Ann's version but Gladys is my girl. Thank you so much<3

  • I always dedicate this song to my youngest son Tony. I notice few spoke of what this song really means.

  • beautiful song by both ladies.

  • This is such a powerful song and I love the way Glady's sings it.

  • I love both versions, But when i rented the DVD of the Family that Preys. And when it came to the end. I was about to ejected it when i heard that Un Mistakable sound of Gladys incredible powerful voice, I gotta tell you I watched the movie twice but played . The closing score at least 10 times to hear Gladys sing it. Is it just me but when she sings it feels as if she is just singing just for me. She is just to me The Empress most high she is truly Royality

  • I never get tired of the movie & the song , love it !

  • I love this song, beautifully done. I saw Leanne womacks version beautiful as well.

  • Oh why can't I find this song by Gladys. I love the way she sings it. I would love to put on my iPod. Beautiful song.

  • I love hearing this song when I watch this movie constantly. The song is beautiful especially when Ms Gladys sings it - I didn't know about Lee Ann or Tia but thanks to both of them because Ms Gladys turns it out. I always tell my family and friends to live, love and DANCE AS IF NO ONE WAS WATCHING. Everyone should have a Dancer's heart and "Spirit" like Miss Charlotte says. Great movie, Greater Song. Thank you MR PERRY and Thank you MISS KNIGHT..........

  • i usually don't like anyone else singing a song when somebody else was the firts to sing it, like Lee Ann Womack's. I also love the way Lee Ann Womack's interprets this beautifull song. I got to tell you i take my hat off to gladys knight. love you both for the interpretation of this lovely song

  • Thank you so much for doing this. I wish there was some way I could have this single to punt on my ipod. Thanks again

  • Are you living? I mean really living...Or are you just existing? (line from the movie) Gladys puts the soul and life into this song!

  • This is the version that most touches my soul

  • This played this song, exact version at my Mentor's funeral. I cried even harder and cry when I hear this song because it reminds me of her because she didn't sit anything out. She Just danced! I love her and miss her very dearly and this song is just sooo great!!

    R.I.P Mrs. Brinkley

  • Thank you for this beautiful video. Sending it to my friend. She has yet to see the movie. I loved ALL the performers. An excellent movie and OMG..Gladys Knight is sooo AWESOME!

  • 2/21/2010 I MISS YOU BESTY

  • I loved this movie and Gladys' version of this song is awesome.

  • love this song anyway but even better by Gladys. this film isnt released in the UK and the format in the US isnt right for my dvd player so I hope it gets released here later.

    GLADYS saw her last year in Cardiff and she was fantastic.

  • - the part in the movie where charlotte died made me cry :[

  • Wonderful!!!

  • This is the most beautiful song I have heard in a long time. This movie was so awesome. This song gives me such joy and peace. I cry everytime I hear it. What a beautiful song.

  • This is the most beautiful song I have heard in a long time. This movie was so awesome. This song gives me such joy and peace. I cry everytime I hear it. What a beautiful song.

  • I love this song

  • I love this song

  • I love this sng

  • Seems like that one with Boyz To Men is called "End OF The Road".

  • I have enjoyed it so every time I see the movie ane just hear the music..It just fills my heart and make me start to cry. Thanks for sharing it with us.

  • My gosh! I remembered this movie. I really enjoyed this movie, and it made me cry. Tyler Perry is an outstanding person. I love how he puts money and opportunity in the community. And at the end, they placed this song. I was shocked as how beautiful Gladys Knight song this song. I love this lady's music. Gladys, you are too an outstanding person. God bless you both!

  • BiggDogg --

    I still get choked up at how this vid starts. What a beautiful composition on your part to weave the movie and these wonderful lyrics together, as performed by the incomparable Gladys Knight.

    Just beautiful. If you saw the movie and this doesn't touch you, then you ARE heartless.

    Thx, Biggdogg

  • Dearest , talented, biggdogg305,-------I Thank you for your time each and every time I listen to this video clip you made for us to enjoy. I thank you again, I'm still listening to it , and loving it as much as from the start. I love the scenes you chose to remind us of the movie, connected with the Soulful, superb vocal performance of Miss Gladys Knight.......Still loving this ,and thanking you  !!!!

  • the best, can listen to this over and over...how can I get it on my mp3 player? why are there no soundtracks for this movie and I Can Do Bad All By Myself? where Mary J. and Gladys both have great songs?

  • Awesome!

  • this song=surprisingly beautiful and has a beautiful message: if given a choice between sitting it out or dance, choosing to dance could save somebodys life. Listen to the lyrics. Give faith a fighting chance & take risks rather than playing it safe, the path of least resistance leads to disappointment, regret and bitterness.

  • biggdogg305: Thank you for putting this together. The audio is great as are the photos. I just saw this movie for the first time Sunday and loved the song, music and lyrics. Lee Ann Womack did a splendid job writing and singing this song. Gladys Knight took it to a soulful level.

  • @vivrospetjon

    Not only to a soulful level, but at least a level or tow above that. A great song by a strong voice of Gladys Knight to boot. I listened to this ten times in the last two days. Someone sent me the song by someone else and I like it but it didn't move me like this version. I found another one that had Gladys and Boys to Men in the background I loved , I can't find it again. Listen and tell me where you found it.

  • @billthechief boys to men "the end of the road" she sang it last year in concert in Cardiff S Wales. she was just awesome and this song is magnificent. I loved it and now play it all the time.

  • Whitney Houston needs to hear this song !!!!! Comeback to us woman !!!

  • Great song Gl;adys Knight, one of thebest ever!

  • I loved Lee Ann Womack's version & she has written what is possible the most poetic song of the past ten years, but when I heard Gladys' version I dropped to the floor. WOW!

  • This was a good movie. I love the way Gladys Knight sings this song.

  • @ladywolfsiobhan Gladys Knight has a gifted voice and like you, I really enjoy her version of this song.

  • @ladywolfsiobhan This song fitted quite well when they played it. I cried, it was just so touching to me because it made me think of my sister(R.I.P. 4-23-2004). The memories I will cherish forever. I'm crying now. This song is inspirational also because you should always have a friend who'll inspire you to do things in life that you would never dream of doing. My sister (SYLVIA) was my very best friend in this big old world. She'll never be replaced. I must go, I'm so full. Blessings!!!

  • Who wrote &/or performed this song before Gladys?

  • Lee Ann Womack

  • The ending credits of this movie just rolled before my eyes a momment ago, this song burnt a place in my heart, so here I am - thank you for sharing. If only all us would dance. biggdogg305 - you just enriched my life. my heart thanks you, and my family and friends unknowingly do. Execellent sound and depth.

  • Wow! Such an AMAZING rendition of 'I Hope You Dance'. The movie was excellent as well. Thanks for posting! One of the best!

  • I JUST TOOK IT 4RM HERE...

  • Oh my God what a beautiful song and what wonderful piece of wisdom being spoken. I hope we all choose to dance and not sit off on the sidelines. Thank you for the video. The audio quality is excellent!!

  • 4:05 my favorite part of the movie when he slap the fire from his wife

  • This is the best sound quality I have ever heard on youtube.

    Well done, biggdogg305!

    Absolutely wonderful.

    Wanna see the movie.

  • omg this song is deep and beautiful and a perfect voice to match..

  • This goes right along with the movie"The Bucket list' Don't let life slip by to all of us who are facing retirement. Everyday is a special event

  • Where can I find the song I hope You Dance by Gladys Knight

  • the url is in the description

  • @alicewardlow I tried finding Gladys song on the internet and through iTunes, but unfortunately, I can not find Gldadys song. I don't understand why it is not on iTunes. This is a beautiful song by her and worth the credits.

  • just watched this movie, loved it.

  • what movie is this song to?

  • the family that preys

  • I love this beautiful song. It's so profound and moving1 I knew it was Gladys singing it the moment the song started. This movie was great also. It offers a lot of life's lessons and inspirations.

  • what can I say, brilliant

  • Thank you ever sooooo much for this song. Love it.!!!

  • When I heard the song on the movie I immediately recognized Gladys Knight as the singer. It's a moving song. If a song can make you feel it then there is hope for you yet.

  • Gladys Knight tore this song up...and i mean that in a good way!!! get it gurl!

  • I like Gladys Knight version better because her version is a gospel style.

  • the best tyler perry movie to me so moving and sad but cant stop watching it

  • This song, both versions, always makes me cry. Its a beautiful song about life

  • I love this version but I do prefer the original a little more. The song is brilliant and one of those songs that touches your heart. Thanks for the post.

  • first i thought the black actress was singing this until i watched the ending credits

  • BLACK actress..? u couldnt just say her name ...like something other than BLACK actress.

  • Did you have a particular black actress in mind, or did you think there was only one?

  • Amen!

  • this movie is awsome and i like how Gladys Knight sings I Hope You Dance

  • I just finished watching "The Family That Preys." Very powerful movie! I really like this song!

  • tyler perry's the family that prey's

  • What movie is this?

  • Happy 65th Birthday to Gladys Knight--May 28th!!!

  • Thank You BIGGDOGG305.

    You really did a wonderful job and God Bless you for it. I am currently experiencing some very difficult times in my life. I watched the movie a while ago and have tried to find the song to download. Finding your video and link allowed me to find the strength to dance. To you, hat's off and I HOPE YOU DANCE. For anyone who is in a bad place in life right now, please try your best to find the strength to dance. :)

  • It's phenomenal how much difference and impact the 'voice' makes in one's reaction to a song. As a youngster in the 80's I thought the original version was actually tepid and and overrated. But upon hearing Ms. Knight's version at the end of the film, my skin swarmed with goose bumps! Now I even have renewed respect for the original version. A similar thing happened when legendary singers like Aretha covered songs by the Beatles and Carole King. Suddenly the songs roared to life! Amazing!

  • Gladys done a great job...She is one of my favorite singerz..Even though, I doubt she gets all the PROPS and Praise that she deserves.

  • guys, tell me, in which Gladys Knight album can i find this?

  • the album it is most likely to be on is the motion picture soundtrack for this movie

  • i loved this song and the move it made me cry my hole family jus stared at me but it was truly touching it was one of those moives that made you think about your own life great job hun

  • Absolutely LOVE this song, Gladys did a great job. The Movie itself is exceptional, Good Job Tyler. Really had me jumping from my seat. Real emotional..GOOD

  • well i'm a puerto rican who is proud to say i support taylor perry. ever since i saw dairy of a mad black woman, i fell in love with his movies. i've seen them all. and can't wait till the next one. all his movie make you want to laugh,cry & cheer.

  • This is a very powerful song. The movie just brought more meaning to it.

    I had to re-evaluate some things in life to see if I was dancing or sitting it out. So far it's been about 50/50. I'm trying to make sure I'm on the Dance Floor all the time.

    God Bless!

    Thanks biggdogg305 for posting this.

  • This was Tyler Perry's best movie...Why doesn't he get the props he deserves outside the black community? Goes to show you...this man is a multi millionaire with the support of mainly the black community who says we don't support one another

  • I agree with you. This is my favorite Tyler Perry.

  • i like Tyler Perry's House of Pain
