@@ToyotaGuy1971Lmao why are you mad? Get a grip, just because someone isn't super famous doesn't mean they aren't talented. There are regular folks who can outsing most famous singers. This group was great but let's not pretend they're super well known these days. Most folks probably can only name We Are Family and would still struggle to tell you their group name. Fame is fleeting. Just focus on enjoying their music so their legacy remains.
Had to come listen to this song by Sister Sledge after hearing it in Club Quarantine #D-Nice Live IG sets are fire each and every time. Shout to Kathy Sledge who pops in the room. We love you Kathy!!!
Said it's one of his fav all time tracks. Also mentioned just last night that Kathy Sledge was 16 when she sang vocals on this track AND that none other than Luther Vandross sang back up vocals!
I KNOW there is !...the New Earth, that Jesus promised He’d give us when we accept Him and He raises us from the dead, as He proved He would when He rose from the dead ! “If Christ were not raised, then we are to be pitied above all men” I’ll take a lifetime of pity !...because He WAS raised !...hope to see you !
Seeing this video makes me happy that I enjoyed these sounds and songs from the beginning, they make / are my life unforgettable great times!! On the other hand the video makes me sad because Joni Sledge who died in March 2017 is sadly missing in this video. So I have to accept life isn't endless!!
Sister sledge a female group like no other just quite simply a very talented group ...... ❤ With thanks to Nile Rodgers of chic and Bernard Edwards bass guitar 🎸
In high school all the boys loved nice wholesome girl groups like " Sister Sledge, High Energy, and the Jones Girls. It was 1978 and 1979 and everything felt right in the African-American community. I am now a school teacher in the city of Milwaukee and the girl rappers are anything but wholesome .They rap about "poping thier virginal walls". The girls emulate this behavior our black communities are in total shock. God help us, bring back the wholesome girl groups please.
It's all over the White Communities, also. I'm from Italy and although it is significantly less, and the Italian girls still aspire to be THE most Beautiful women on earth. I'm married to one. She's a tall Black Haired bronze skinned Sicilian. She needs no make up. She just likes the Extended Eye Lashes. Apart from that, if an Italian girl spoke or listened to music with sexual filth, her father would beat her to a pulp after her mother
When you think about it, we had the only fun growing up (the 70s). The '60s was a struggle, and the '80s had crack and HIV. I feel blessed to have spent all my teenage years during this era.
@D W THE CHIC WOMEN SANG BACKGROUND ON WE ARE FAMILY AND NOT THE 3 OTHER SISTERS!!!!!! Nile Rodgers was wrong for that...just wrong. Thank you for sharing this information.
@D W Wow! I truly had no idea that these Sister Sledge didn't sing background vocals to We are Family. And Luther Vandross...was a background vocal on We Are Family!! I can't imagine how the Sledge Sisters felt not singing background vocals on We Are Family. I would've felt angry and disrespected. Thank you so kindly for sharing this knowledge with me. I appreciate it.😊
This clip was from 1993. The sisters were in the UK at teh time celebrating their 20 years in the industry. Joni had just had a son who is now in college.
The Girls were Totally Amazing. I was so lucky to see them Live when They Toured when Their Hit Frankie came out. Makes me so sad the lead singer 😭😭😭😭😭 passed on . Her voice was uniquely incredible. Love Sister Sledge so much Forever .
It was 1978..I grew up listening and playing their hits..I'm 57 now....I'm a Dj from the Old School..their songs are, and always be, the OST of my life. American Girls forever
This song reminds me of a love affair I had when I was young. In its happiest and most emotional days, I happened to listen to this song, and it became the soundtrack of that loving relationship, which was the most beautiful I ever had. And every time I listen to it, I have the same goosebumps.
Nile Rogers is a genius! He and Bernard are icons. Just think, Kathy was what 14 when she recorded these vocals. I remember 14 well and the pure emotions that came with it. Still on this in 2021. 💋😘🎶
Oh my God,I love Kathy. She's small, very attractive and that voice is heaven sent. This beautiful classic came out in 1979 on the we are family album. I were just about too start kindergarten at the tender age of five.
We love this sisterhood and would beautiful educated and talented women, We would love to see Kathy come back and join her sisters once again for a family reunion and tribute to the beautiful Joni Sledge. They are performing at the mt Airy casino in the Poconos mountains soon and hope all the best for them. God Bless!
2 things stand out to me: first is how classy and beautiful these ladies are, and secondly how this video looks extremely modern like they just performed this in the past 3 to 5 years.
The anthem for #ClubQuarantine “Thinking of you” this song brings joy when Dj Dnice plays it! Song of the year 2020. Let’s never forget the people we lost, the people who gave their lives to help take care of who were affected during this crisis. Thank you, Sister Sledge for this song and most of all Thank you Dj Dnice for bringing this song to us. Let’s heal the world!
Myself and lil sister jam , With my cousins we were in a talent show I'll never forget. The world was a better place then . Sing Kathy sing 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾🎼🎵💜♥️💜♥️
I love these women I was in the 8th grade whenever this came out they used to play it at the skating rink I them in concert in 1996 and they sounded the same and they were just as beautiful in person 😊😊😊🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
Beauty, True Style & Class, Femininity and what beautiful voices AND Oh Precious!!! This song brings back many,many sweet & beautiful memories. Sister Sledge did that to your mind, body, and soul. The combined vocals of the sisters were so smooth and just stroked a tender chord in your body. I remember only too well where I was and what I was doing when this great song came out, and hearing it over & over, I am back there and won't wake from that era when all the singers, song writers from the sixties, seventies, & eighties, wrote and sang the chorus lines of our lives. There is very little song writing talent and very few singers today who can match the eras of yesteryear. Those people who say get over it, well I truly feel sorry for their attitude as they will never know the true meaning of Love, Joy, Peace, & Happiness; or what family and friends meant. Music that was written and sung in yesteryear spoke of the very things that really mattered & I have just mentioned them. Music with soul and true meaning. No music today can hold a candle to that. Those times may be gone, but for those like me who grew up in yesteryear; those times will never be forgotten period. :-) :-) True beauty in Kathy, Debbie, Kim, and the beautiful late Joni. Love you all 💗♥️💕💖💞
My fave in love song…. And also a gem at the end! “I always worry about those bustier tops on television, all the movement, you know. That's why I don't wear them me-self..."
One thing these girls did was combines sexy AND classy. Many girl groups since thenhave managed to be one or the other, but none have done both at the same time better than they did. Cathy still looks fab todays and still has that beaming smile.
I just wanted to reach the Sledge Sisters to tell them how thankful I'm for their music and for their deportment even onto this day, this graceless age we currently live in. These are fine women with class! Who dare agrees?
It is so good to see how these ladies have become even more beautiful as time pass, We are around the same age and the beauty that was present over thirty years ago still shine so strong today!
Growing up in a home with a parent who at the time was an active participant in the music industry (my mother was the original lead singer for 70's funk trio Stargard before they released with Janice as lead singer) you'd think I'd know this song lol. For some reason though I don't, but then I only remember "Greatest Dancer" & "Family". I own what I believe is their Greatest Hits album & maybe a year or so ago just got turned onto "Mama Never Told Me" & "Lost In Music" just a few days ago & I've loved both since first hearing them. Now I too love this song as well. Even as a child 4-5 yrs old in 1979, I always loved the style & rasp of Kathy's vocal. Their sound & stunning beauty, is TIMELESS!
Before fake booties and fake everything else when you could appreciate a woman's beauty as genuine. These gals were talented too.
Elegance personified.
No mordenistic vibes but just pure love for a man.
Heavenly from start to finish x
You know a Nile Rogers song when you hear it. Love his sound
I love this track so much... these women are so healing
Indeed, this was my favorite track in the “We are family” album 💿
That whole album is fire! Chic and Sister Sledge, a match made in Heaven. Saw them in 1980, great show!
Nile Rodgers + Bernard Edwards + Sister Sledge: Perfect pop music!
Funk
The 70's. Sound resonates all through powerfully with her & joni leading the way. They truly captured the essence of that time capsule.
Mark Ford ......Kathy
....I know - “Joni” is the coolest name...but Kathy is the Lead.
@@andrewnkunda7 agreed however joni lead on the fabulous recording"We're lost in music"
@@markford1459 ok
Her voice melts me from the inside.. and that bass
The lead singer her beauty is shining through. Like a beautiful bright glowing light among the stars.
Kathy's voice was so underrated. She was a powerhouse. LOVE Sister Sledge

Cathy Sledge I had a crush on. Backed by the mighty group Chic. This was the days man. Go ahead sisters.
So true💯
@@wayneroper6367 I think we all had a crush on her. She pipes, good looks and a body. What's not to like.

Still is to. WOW!
Jesus.. especially at certain points in her high frequencies, gives me chills in the spine..!
She sang the "hardline".... Contralto and a touch raspy, but smooth.
@@garyaugustus1009 raspy is sultry
She was the group to me.(just saying)
Kathy Sledge is unbelievable. One of the most beautiful ladies of all time.
This song is wonderful, and that bass-line.
Sublime and sheer perfection.
must be Nile Rodgers
Absoulutley.. What a Babe
Don’t forget the guitar 🎸 🎉

Yeah, 40 years later I still listen to you. Thank you for sharing.
My favorite sister was Joni, she was so beautiful, RIP Joni Sledge
When I was a kid I couldn’t believe how beautiful they were.
Wow.
No cussing, no twerking and no money talk.
GenX baby.
Just Beautiful Women that could sing!!!!😄😄😄😃😃😄😄😄😄😄
My generation had so much fun growing up... WOW!
agreed . The Best times
Yes we did that time has come and gone I'm so glad I was blessed to be in that Era.
When you think about it, we had the only fun growing up (the 70s). The '60s was a struggle, and the '80s had crack and HIV. I feel blessed to have spent all my teenage years during this era.
Hell yeah!!! Wish I could go back!
Unsung, Unsung, Unsung. I would love to see these beautiful ladies on Unsung. Such talented ladies.

Great video - truly beautiful women. And of course, the irresistible Rogers/Edwards sound.
Chris Berardi.... Narada Michael Walden did right by them, too. Check out 'All-American Girls'.
You should hear Chic featuring Johnny Mathis' "I love my lady". You can tell it is a Chic written and produced song by how it's sung.
I love Sister Sledge, beautiful all of them and such great voices, Thanks Nile Rodgers for the riff :)
