she puts marvin gaye in the shade. What a rocker. And what a cutie pie too. pips moves are flawless too. Read her biography. She is a beautiful person inside too. And yes, she came out with "grapevine" about 6 months before Marvin Gaye

Amazing! You can NOT top this! Comparing this to Marvin's or CCR's version is like comparing rubies, emeralds and diamonds, but this is my favorite. People living centuries in the future will be moved by this performance. Thank you for posting this musical gem. Incredible!
WOW! Kelly Rowland looks just like Gladys. Won't it be great if Hollywood came up with a movie about the life of Gladys Knight and the Pips, Kelly Rowland playing Gladys!!!! I think it wud be great, Strong resemblance here, very much.......

@blueforyou2 Sorry to tell you but Gladys has long hair but back then she used to get weaves, Yes they were around then but not any where as popular as they are today.I remember doing them back as far as 1968, it was pole weaving at that time. you know the deal the longer your real hair is, at least at the front and sides the better that the weave blends. and at that time everybodys had edges and sides because relaxers and braids hadnt taken them out at that time yet.
@zxssded No it wasn't. Marvin recorded his version before Gladys recorded this one, although this version was released first. But both were covers. The original version was recorded by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. Do your homework.
A #1 hit for Gladys Knight and The Pips on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 167th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. Well, we say goodbye to 1967 and head into 1968. And R&B music was hot. You felt something with every song. Sadly, you don't feel that today.
@willievega Thanks for the reply. I'm going through all the top hits on the Rhythm & Blues charts, Country & Western charts, Adult Contemporary charts, and the Top 5 on the Top 40 charts.
And fully clothed! A real Diva doesn't need to where a body suit to attract attention to her talent. If you can sing, SING! You shouldn't have to be half naked to do it! Loving the plaid jacket and bell bottoms! (And the baby hair, soo cute!)
Does anyone know what Marvin Gaye thought about this version of his song? I think it's quite different. More of a angry tune. Marvins has more of a sad tune, more soulful.
@1mpablo Actually, it depends on whether you're talking about the release or the recording. Gladys recorded her version after Marvin, but Marvin waited well over a year to release his, while Gladys released hers within a few months of recording it.
Hey, I’m a young artist, & I would really appreciate it if everyone would check out my cover of Michael Bublé’s “You’re Nobody till Somebody Loves You.” Although I’m knowledgeable that Michael Bublé was not the first to record the song, my version was inspired by his rendition, nonetheless. I promise you that you will not regret giving my version of the song a listen, & it will truly knock you off of your feet! So please listen & enjoy! Thanks!
@torbenliennielsen Yeaah,well said!You can say that again!One should have to be totally deaf or soulless for not be enthusiastic about this video!Waddaeff!
Her version of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" was recorded in 1967. Born in 1944 she would have been about 23 years old. Started at the age of 7 and now 66 years. So she has been performing nearly 60 years. What a talent !!
Gladys, CCR and Marvin all have equally good versions of this song. They each fit a different mood and a different listener. This is one of few songs where three different artists can do the song justice in their own way.
This is a true story. A girl died in 1933. A man buried her when she was still alive. The murder chanted, "Toma Sota balcu," as he buried her. Now that you have read this chant, you will meet this little girl. In the middle of the night she will be on your ceiling. She will suffocate you like she was suffocated. If you post this on your profile, she will not bother you. Your kindness will be rewarded. Lucillia
@XxXShAwTyBoOXxX WOW .. if that is weave man its looks a lot better then what the chicks nowadays are rockin LOL ....... but I agree , because I remember reading that weave became very popular in the 70s after being introduced in the 60s . Who would've thought it existed back then? but i just thought it was all natural since her autobiography mentioned her father being half Cherokee if that is weave I must say it looks a lot better than the kind u see today IDK
She looks so young this this video! Beautiful voice. Terrible clothes 70s no doubt. Dancing - but the guy on the right in the video has got just a little too much groove! Showing off no doubt.
Why have all the people dancing got he same hair, and I won't mention the wig Gladys has one.
Her lip sync is excellent though, annd she looks great.
I enjoy seeing soul singers perform, but feel the real magic is done at the actual recordings. How can singers perform really sad, bluesy songs, when they are on stage and feeling good. Most soul music is pretty much sad stuff on the whole, apart from material aimed at the dance market
"Love this tune to bits! Creedence version is brilliant, this one is double brilliant!!" If you want triple brilliant, try the original by Marvin Gaye.
You may be sick, a racist, or just delusional. I'm in my fifties, and my black freinds of the same age are reverting back to afros, easier maintenance and they just dont' give a damn what society thinks.
@ListeningforGod - I think that the original comment was meant to say that the afros were "sick", in a good way. I think that you should wear your hair however you'd like, because the only one that can judge you is God. May he bless us all. Have a wonderful day!
@ListeningforGod now DAS RACIST! i meant 'sick' in a good way. i always wanted my hair to look like a coco puff.... i just don't think i could pull it off :(
The best version! Her song came out in the mid 60's. I was just 8-a whte girl in motown Detroit. The kids danced the "shingaling" to this. Gladys was 1 of the first inspirations for girls at THAT time. (as was Diana Ross, Aretha, Nancy Sinatra, Petula Clark, Dionne W..)
Amazing! :-) Though... Am I the only one who thinks it's a bit scary that there's not a single white person dancing around there, though? Wasn't the Great American Public ready for mixed race entertainment yet? :-o
This song was their first big hit after struggling soo many years to get their first big hit. But a year later Marvin Gaye recorded a cover version of this song, and it was even a bigger hit than Gladys Knight and the Pips version. Although Marvin deserved all of the success that he got, it was soo wrong for Berry to let Marvin overshadow the hit song that Gladys Knight and The Pips had been waiting soo long for. They were happy for Marvin but it hurt them somewhat as Gladys stated in her book.
@tommiexander You have your facts wrong. Gladys Knight was the one doing the covering of the song. Marvin Gaye recorded his version of the song prior to the Pips' but released it after theirs. Smokey Robinson was the first to record the song and that was over 2 years before Gladys Knight did her version.
I see that you got on the Internet to look this up. The public didn't know anything about who recorded the song first, so that didn't matter. The point I'm making is Gladys Knight and The Pips were the first to release the song to the public and it was their first big hit that they had been working so hard for. And for Berry to release Marvin Gaye's version a year later wasn't fair to Gladys.
@tommiexander No, you made it sound like The pips version was the original, when in fact it wasnt at all. two artists had recorded the song before Glady Knight ever did. "I see that you got on the Internet to look this up"..was that supposed to be some sort of slight? Where the fuck else was i supposed to look, the outdated encyclopedia on my shelf? idiot. And your facts are still wrong...The pips werent the first to release the song on the radio, The Miracles were...2 Years before The Pips
Child Please..., It ain't that serious for you to get all bent out of shape and technical about it. But if you want to go there; The Miracles never released the song; they recorded it......O.K.?
@tommiexander You're right, The Miracles didnt release the song, their manager did. All three versions were on the radio at the same time for a while.
the all time hippest song ever, done by the hippermost, gorgeous, smiley, get down on it, Gladys Knight. People THIS is music, fun, fast and frotastic!

The best version! Her song came out in the mid 60's. I was just 8-a whte girl in motown Detroit. The kids danced the "shingaling" to this. Gladys was 1 of the first inspirations for girls at THAT time. (as was Diana Ross, Aretha, Nancy Sinatra, Petula Clark, Dionne W..)

Amazing! :-) Though... Am I the only one who thinks it's a bit scary that there's not a single white person dancing around there, though? Wasn't the Great American Public ready for mixed race entertainment yet? :-o

This song was their first big hit after struggling soo many years to get their first big hit. But a year later Marvin Gaye recorded a cover version of this song, and it was even a bigger hit than Gladys Knight and the Pips version. Although Marvin deserved all of the success that he got, it was soo wrong for Berry to let Marvin overshadow the hit song that Gladys Knight and The Pips had been waiting soo long for. They were happy for Marvin but it hurt them somewhat as Gladys stated in her book.

@tommiexander You have your facts wrong. Gladys Knight was the one doing the covering of the song. Marvin Gaye recorded his version of the song prior to the Pips' but released it after theirs. Smokey Robinson was the first to record the song and that was over 2 years before Gladys Knight did her version.

I see that you got on the Internet to look this up. The public didn't know anything about who recorded the song first, so that didn't matter. The point I'm making is Gladys Knight and The Pips were the first to release the song to the public and it was their first big hit that they had been working so hard for. And for Berry to release Marvin Gaye's version a year later wasn't fair to Gladys.

@tommiexander No, you made it sound like The pips version was the original, when in fact it wasnt at all. two artists had recorded the song before Glady Knight ever did. "I see that you got on the Internet to look this up"..was that supposed to be some sort of slight? Where the fuck else was i supposed to look, the outdated encyclopedia on my shelf? idiot. And your facts are still wrong...The pips werent the first to release the song on the radio, The Miracles were...2 Years before The Pips

Child Please..., It ain't that serious for you to get all bent out of shape and technical about it. But if you want to go there; The Miracles never released the song; they recorded it......O.K.?

@tommiexander You're right, The Miracles didnt release the song, their manager did. All three versions were on the radio at the same time for a while.
