I never did meet this wonderful sister act, but when Joni passed away, it was like I lost my own sister. I do not know why, but she was so young and I feel such a loss when someone so young passes. Rest in Peace Joni!
What a fabulous entrance! Always an all-time classic 80's song! We sing this at parties and groups I attend! We've even sung it in church! Thank you, Sister Sledge!!
I remember dancing in many clubs in NYC but never forget a club called Suttons on the Eastside these Disco groups I'm a Sr now But,will never forget this era It was the Greatest
They were so classy and they didn’t have to camouflage their talent by taking off their clothes they were truly an examples and had the full package beautiful, elegant and talented.
A #1 hit for Sister Sledge on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 435th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. It also hit #2 on the Top 40 charts, and #1 on both the Hot Dance Club Play charts and in Canada.
On this day in 1979 {June 9th} "We Are Family" reached #1 {for 1 week} on Billboard's R&B chart... About five weeks earlier on April 28th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100; eventually it peaked at #2 {for 2 weeks} and spent 19 weeks in the Top 100...
Excellent true live recording from way back, im guessing 37 years ago. 107 people's ain't got their sister's with them A great classic performance.........lovely sisters! RIP Joni 😰 from Holland 2017
I was 17 years old in 1980. Back then I was listening to Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Yes etc... I have no idea what made me think of this song all of a sudden and look it up. Funny how music brings back memories of times you never thought you had... even from a lifetime ago.
To all my sisters, sister in laws brothers neices NEPHEWS cousins through thick n thin no matter how far apart we are, we are as one, with loving hearts and loving arms to give big hugs when required and to know that love is always there without a word being spoken. I love my family all of you past n present and I know you love me, thats why I will never be alone even when you think I am ;-)
Lovely performance. And titillating Motown arrangement. Love the 60s girl group fashion and moves. But, man, I sure do miss those harmonies. I was waiting for 'em! 🤔😒😝
These girls were a class act. They definitely don't make em like this no more. If your not selling ratchetness w/ today's culture, ain't nobody buying it. They just not interested.😔
You should check out Kathy Sledge's music video for her new single released in 2011 called "Give Yourself Up". It's got some throwback lines to "Family". It's doing really well on the charts too. You can find it here on youtube.
LOL! "Back in the day" people didn't stand up at concerts...no matter how much they wanted to! Why? No idea!! Much better now when people get up and dance to the music!
i love not only the song but also their dresses and how they move, they are perfect!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Aw, so beautiful!
RIP Joni. You will be miss, but never forgetten. SISTER SLEDGE FOREVER!
The timeless record of many many more generations to come ❤
REAL MUSIC and TALENT back in the day when music was music, I sure miss those days...thanks for posting this!:)

Love the beautiful sisters! They radiate joy!
What a fabulous entrance! Always an all-time classic 80's song! We sing this at parties and groups I attend! We've even sung it in church! Thank you, Sister Sledge!!
Imani Gayle Gillison Fabulous entrance -- except for when one of them stepped down too soon lol
J Marques That was Joni but this is still awesome!
This was my jam when I was little, seriously. I was that 8 year old in the 2000's still listening to this on her barbie cassette tape player...
Wow talent!! It’s basically nonexistent nowadays, I love classic performances like this! From every genre! How I miss seeing Liberace in Vegas!
Dua lipa is all class.
I remember dancing in many clubs in NYC but never forget a club called Suttons on the Eastside these Disco groups I'm a Sr now But,will never forget this era It was the Greatest
Luv it!!!

I just love those dresses the Sisters Sledge are wearing. Great song and great fashion for early 80's times.
Fabulous singers dancers and elegant great song memories 💖🇦🇺 my my music I grew up with wonderful 💖♥️🇦🇺
I had no idea. I have always loved your group and this song, especially. The dresses are beautiful and so are all of you.
Sister Sledge rocks! Inspirational song, always great to hear.

They were so classy and they didn’t have to camouflage their talent by taking off their clothes they were truly an examples and had the full package beautiful, elegant and talented.
One of the classiest acts of the 70s.
There's no vocal sound like Sister Sledge and this song is pure fire. Also a compliment to the drummer. Leading and in the pocket, right on target.
The percussion is on point. Do you know who their drummer was?
@@DonaldMacNab Sorry, I don't know.
A #1 hit for Sister Sledge on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 435th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. It also hit #2 on the Top 40 charts, and #1 on both the Hot Dance Club Play charts and in Canada.

Hi i like because it is a nice song

Morning motivation shot.
I just finished listening to bidens speech and felt like I needed to hear this song
I thought they looked very classy for the grammy's! If you look closely you can tell that Debbie (the oldest tallest sister) is pregnant.
True that
