As much as people used to insult and ridicule disco, it's a stone cold FACT that this music required a thousand times more talent than what the average pop star of today expends as he or she cranks out his or her next autotuned nugget of pure shit.
You get an orchestra, kickass bass and rythm, and people who could actually sing. What's so bad about it?
I have four sisters and when we were young in the 80s UK we used to KILL DIS TUNE, we so wanted to be Sister Slege, girls, you are the best role models ever xxxx little girls trying to get inspired thank you for giving us that for ever xx
All Kathy Sledge fans should check out her NEW song called "Give Yourself Up". You can find the music video here on youtube. It's got some throwback feel to "We Are Family". It's doing really well on the charts too.
@Logolover36 Kind of stupid that someone would flag a comment about the artist's other songs to check out as spam, but not a comment the song being gay? Pretty lame.
@MsJackie123456789 The Chipmunks sound like a bunch of hip hoppers before they turn to rappers. This is the original. AINT NOTHING LIKE THE REAL THING, and this is the REAL THING.
@repoman174 This song is not about gay people. This song is actually made by sisters and they are family. This song is about family. This is a song that one may play at a fmaily reunion or a family gathering of some kind. Where do you get the idea of gaye from this song. There is no gay nowhere in this song.
hey do not diss this music cause if this type of music eventually evolved into newer types of music today .. it has inspired some of the best rappers out there today so respect your past but do not live in it.. embrace it and let it enrich your life..
One of the best disco bands around with the amazing and sadly missed Bernard Rogers (awesome basslines)....Check out our own 70's disco band "FREAK OUT Disco Band"....our mission is simple to keep 70's disco alive and carry on delivering great arrangements of the classics.....check out ......freakoutdiscoband.co.uk There is a link to Facebook and under "band profile" you can download the tracks....Enjoy and "Like Us"....Thanks!
Lots of websites say that the Pointer Sisters also sang this song, but all the versions claimed to be sung by the Pointer Sisters sound EXACTLY like this one (voices, inclinations, harmonies, instruments etc.). So...it is just a myth that the pointer sisters also sung this?
What's the extent of Nile's illness? What's wrong with him! How long has he been sick. My goodness with all the people I grew up listening to either being sick or dying I suddenly feel very "old"!
Billboard's #53 song of '79. Are the 4 Sledge sisters still singin' together? Somebody let me know. They hit #1 soul, #2 pop, #30 AC, in Billboard. God bless!
absolute classic ,kicks ten shades out of pixie lot,rhianna,lady gaga, that other fool who sang i kissed a girl etc,no comparrison at all whats so ever.brownstones hit the nail where it hurts well done.xxxxx
ive just realised why I feel the way I do when I listen to Sister Sledge. Im listening to music from a time that there were just so many brilliant and soulful songwriters and musicians. Its all about your soul connections.............................
this song has become an American anthem. every time people sing it in groups its awesome to hear the singing, the clapping and watch the people sway. classic.
For me sister sledge and chic have allways been one of the first and best female music groups. I was and still be in love with soul and funcky music. I am proud to have quite the same age like the sisters !
Please keep on going with producing such lovely music !
thumbs up if you still watch this in 2012!!!
