One of my favorite trivia questions to pose to people is, "Can you name who wrote this song?" It was written by Stevie Wonder. Makes total sense when you listen to it. Perfection.
White guy here..I remember being about 12 and seeing this and thinking she was a total FOX.....still is. And what a voice....and now that I am older and my hormones have settled down I've realized that the band is pretty AWESME too....:)
one of my top 100 favorite Funk songs. I was probably about 8 when this aired and I was lucky enough to come from a family who had music playing all the time....... its made me into the funky white man I am today :)
Love Chaka Khan!! Such a soulful voice. This is what REAL talent sounds like, Nicki Minja and all you other wannabe ladies that will be forgotten in a couple of years ...
Chaka Khan was ahead of her time. At that time there were no black female singers fronting a band. She was doing what Sly Stone, George Clinton, Maurice White, and Lionel Richie were doing. They called her the Female Sly stone!! Rufus!!
It’s the early seventies, I am Chaka! You cannot tell me how to dress in front of millions of impressionable little girl fans!!! They will emulate me and cause their families heartache!
God: "Daughter, in this world all will be denied or taken from you but here, take thou this gift: the greatest singing voice among all women in my Creation." Didn't lie, DID HE ;)
I hear that Rufus grew from the ashes of the group American Breed "Bend me Shape me" and was written specially for Rufus by none other than Stevie Wonder.

What did he say on the voice box at 1:33 that cracked Chaka up and make the bassist laugh and shake his head. Sounds like he said something like "but you came girl" (maybe a sex reference, dunno but they obviously thought it was funny). I remember loving this song and listing to it on a transistor radio on AM station KKUA in Pearl City 1975.

Omg, i never knew that. Thank you.
it sounds like every one of his songs
Once you know it's Stevie, it makes perfect sense, and it's impossible not to hear Stevie.
The very REASON I LOVE TRIVIA! Learn something new all the time! SSSSSSSOOOOUUUULLLLLL 🚂!!!!

SAME HERE MICHAEL MY FAMILY PLAYED MUSIC NIGHT AND DAY.

I could listen to this all night long, grateful to have grown up with this music
I could relate to what you said because I grew up listening to this type of music 😊those was the good old days..
@@musabradley4302 I’m so grateful I grew up in this era☮️🧚♀️💜 music 🎶 is my religion… and Mother Nature 💯
Chaka + Rufus + Stevie Wonder's song = Stone Cold Classic!
"What I got will knock your pride aside." God, I love those lyrics!
Chaka must have had some good stuff!
And I know she ain’t lying! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 she talking for us dimes out here!
In 1975, I blasted this on my 8 track through 12” speakers in the backseat.
she is so beautiful
Was. she weighs 300lbs now. but she's still beautiful inside right.
Gary King She is still beautiful inside and out rather she is 300 or 100 pounds.
Nope. anyone that's 5'5" and weighs 300lbs are not attractive. (of course that's just my opinion) she still sings great I'll give her that.
At any weight, she's HOT.
@@garyulyssesking I think you're exaggerating a bit with the 300 lbs comment, no?
One of my all time favorite songs 🎵 ever.
I love this song! She is so beautiful!
Thank you Chaka always make me smile
GOD Please help us to have music like this again..."Please"🙏🙏🙏🙏

Stevie Wonder wrote this
If the Knicks don't sign OG then that was 1 of the most expensive rentals in NY Knicks history (trading away RJ, IQ and a draft pick).

That rich bass. What happened to the Black band?
