When I was in Manhattan one morning, and walking down the street. I happened to see Nick Ashford. I was on the opposite side of the street. I waved good morning to him and he waved back. That is one of my most cherished memories.
love it. they blended the two versions of the song. this writing duo are probably the most underappreciated. they wrote some of the great classics of all time.
Yes they are absolutely gorgeous. In the next life, I would like to marry that fiiiiiine Nick Ashford. I thank this couple for the music. LOL, BLESSINGS ❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Valerie Simpson is the most underrated vocalist of all time.Still get chills at the end of the film Welcome Back Charleston Blue,at her duet with Donny Hathaway.We are God's people!
Agreed. She can 'yell', belt it out....without yelling. The best "whoa oh oh's" ever. But Nick is even more underrated....he has the macho voice combined with the 10-octaves-up a split-second later....but he does it like it's nothing. Like it's 2nd-nature, from the heart.
Much respect to Marvin and Tammi but Nicholas and Valerie murdered this track beautifully. Like this is my first time hearing this version and I'm like omg this is awesome!! They got me in here doing all kinds of sound effects like oooh, ahhh, geeeeze, I can't even try to spell whatever I was saying lol
Great to finally hear these wonderful composers finally get to sing their own material. As they performed more, their vocals tightened up a lot more. David Sandborn's sexy sax solo really adds punch to this performance. I can see why Valerie is NOT willing to let their earlier Motown guide vocal masters get released, as she has stated that Nick Ashford hadn't developed his vocal chops to the point that he did later, and she doesn't want to lesson his legacy. I totally respect Valerie's decision. However, this is the beginning of their legacy as singers Thank you so much for sharing!
Honestly yall🤔. I have ALWAYS thought that Nick is what Jesus really looked like, all my life. They just changed his hair and eye color. Really, Memphis, 10
the Dutton family Bluegrass group made a version of this song not as good as this one as far as I am concerned this should be the only version why the remakes cannot compare

Nick was one of the greats!
Ashford and Simpson really great song writers, they were simply awesome!
We saw them in San Diego, CA approximately 1979-80 and they were amazing and had the audience hooked every second of the show.

Yep she is, she is my favorite female vocalist right behind Natalie Cole! Val can saannng with and without her husband!
They're more known for being hitmakers than hit takers
True musical geniuses.
Be at peace, Nick! Nice!
❤️
How are you doing Kathy ?
This is one of the most splendid top 10 songs of all time.
Much respect to Marvin and Tammi but Nicholas and Valerie murdered this track beautifully. Like this is my first time hearing this version and I'm like omg this is awesome!!

Saw them live in London........AMAZING
Luuucky duck ! Saw Marley Live ! But frankly....I'd Rather have experienced them Live ! Sorry Marley fans .

OMG, I love this.

+marknorthwest93 Well said sir. I Totally agree with everything .
I’d love to hear their demo versions of I’m Every Woman and the Boss
トムバーニーの音色が合ってますね
2019 classics live on and on and ...
Oh yeah
How are you doing Mary ?
The just Fused effortlessly. Wow! Real music is dead. This is how we felt in love in the 80's...
Victor Moses the real music still here
@@oholm09 can't agree more : Vulfpeck, Jacob Collier, Pomplamoose, knower, dirty loops, JD Beck and DOMi, pentatonix, Snarky Puppy...
Great, love them
Echte talent, zo wonderbaarlijk mooi muziek. ❤️
they killed this
They wrote it
Baby, that's pure love
Absolutely!
How are you doing Jane ?
I wish they did a remaster on this song from the 80s because it's too iconic! There's more bass and groove than in the '67 version
Beautiful ❤❤
The Ross treatment is so iconic everything else pales.......
Reverend Oates sangin' his butt off!!
Rip nick
💜☄️
They did it the only way it should be sung, the Tammi and Marvin way.
Valerie certainly had the voice,Nic not so much but they complimented each other.
Found and bought a vinyl record at the flee market so I was curious about them ,that's why I'm here lol.pretty good voice by the way.
You have a vinyl of this Beautiful song and with their voice ?
And a very young David Sanborn on the sax.
💖💝💖💝
That was Saturday Night Live!! A young Dave Sandborn on sax
No I think it's later with jools Holland
@@tomd9307 later with jools started in 1992
I love Karaoke...
🌍❤🎶🎶
not as good as mad tv you are the one i love
True....mountains is that bad to obtain...real life
L'amour noir est plus chaud !
David Sanborn.. too
Honestly yall🤔. I have ALWAYS thought that Nick is what Jesus really looked like, all my life. They just changed his hair and eye color. Really, Memphis, 10
Cepheus and Reesie.
that's what I was waiting to see. LOL.
M1を弾いてるの、ジョージ・デューク?
Só os BRs q vieram por causa do carinha que mora logo ali 😂
My goodness, how old is Jools Holland?
12
god gives you a mountain to climb or a cliff to fall over
Who’s playing sax 🎷
No disrespect Nick Ashford but I always thought he looked like a lion with that hair style. Love Ashford and Simpson. RIP to Nick!
monique 45 I thought he looked nice loved his hair
I know what you mean but creatives tend to be eccentric and thrive on uniqueness.
He's the tamer version of Julius Carry (Sho Nuff).
Tall, Tan, Mega-talented, Slender, and Fine as exquisite champagne equals my definition of Mr. NICK ASHFORD ♥
No Marcus Miller on that one. I must admit I’ve never heard Marcus play anything old style : James Jamerson / Babbit / Chuck Rainey / Jemmott
the Dutton family Bluegrass group made a version of this song not as good as this one as far as I am concerned this should be the only version why the remakes cannot compare
Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell made it before Nick and Val...💃🏻👍🏻
