Kudos to the bass player for bringing a LOT of the original wonderful countermelody played by Bob Babbitt. And for the arranger and production crew that kept it nicely on top of the mix where it belongs. It really is one of the things that makes this song great.
@@ellish7555 She sung a song for his Kennedy Center Award and he did one for her. But just to honor the legacy of someone in the arts (in this case music) is very respectful.
Im from the UK and love country music and Garth Brooks is in my opinion one of the greatest entertainers ever ....lucky enough to see him at croke park and i dare anyone to take me to a gig better 😂
I really wish this performance was 6:02 rather than just the delicious 3:02 that we got😊... Best cover... of one of my favourite songs...ever!👏👏👏... and those 3 Pips(?!)... As 'sharp as a tack'! ... Well done, everyone!👏👏... Bravo!!!🎉❤🥰
The song was initially written for country genre and called Midnight Plane to Houston. But then the label thought Cissy Houston would do great, changed the title and also get Gladys to do her own rendition
OMg he sang that song so well and im just now seeing this, he was able to kinda cross over as one of the greatest country singers and sing this soul classic by Gladys knight just perfect.
What a great tribute of respect from a great Country singer to one of the finest R&B singers of the era. And you could see the mutual appreciation lit up in both of them. Now isn't that what makes music great. ❤
2 legends showing the ultimate respect to each other.......Gladys paid tribute to Garth when he was honored by the Kennedy Center and Garth then paid tribute to Gladys......beautiful
I think it's good to have singers from different genres to do a tribute or just simply cover a classic from another genre. The history has proved it is totally wrong to stay "original" and it is good to bring a bunch of audience in one genre to appreciate another genre. Though of course it sounds pretty different for a country artist to do an R&B classic, the difference makes the world. Beyoncé's Irreplaceable was adapted from a country record, and Linda Ronstadt's You're No Good was an R&B song by Dee Dee Warwick. They sound great.
Thank you for posting this. I've been looking for this performance since the airing of the Kennedy Honors. As usual, Garth was phenomenal. Brother has soul.
Garth brooks the first time lsaw you on tv singing was maybe 2021 liking your singing look...again and again listening to your songs loving them....your fan

She returned the favor to him by performing for him!
Garth did an AMAZING JOB! ❤
People that don't know about etiquette will never know how great that was. He paid her the ultimate respect with that rendition.
I agree!
I loved this! But can you explain? (From The Netherlands, so do not really gather what you mean) Thanks!!!

@@reneebarnhart1836 thank you!!
Loved his rendition!
This man's not just got country he's got soul 👍
That’s right! Garth my man!
Country and Soul are both music born of the deep feeling of common people. They have more in common than they differ.
He's always been country, rock, and RnB -- and never afraid to mix them.
Ms. Knight is a national treasure.
Im from the UK and love country music and Garth Brooks is in my opinion one of the greatest entertainers ever ....lucky enough to see him at croke park and i dare anyone to take me to a gig better 😂
Garth does not only sing but he truly feels the music. Best performance 👏
That’s why it’s called soul.
A legend with three total chads pay tribute to another legend. Wow.
Have a lifelong friendship like Garth Brooks e Gladys Knight
Garth is so amazing. This was an amazing rendition. Garth has all the soul of anyone out there. Such an amazing job
ABSOLUTELY
loved it!
It was written as a Country Song. She has said that more than once. He did it justice.
Wow! I never knew that!
Best voice in country pays tribute to he queen of soul…Go Garth, just too good any time any place
The way he sang “Georgia “ !
Dude needs to release more of his music to the public cause he is pure gold !
Two things: (1) Gotta hand it to Garth, the man is just awesome. That’s the way you honor someone for their art and (2) the REACH of SOUL MUSIC.
I have replayed this video with Garth everyday since it aired. I love the way he sang it.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Impressive, Garth did a great job honoring The Empress of Soul. It is long overdue for her Kennedy Honors!
Dude can sing; did justice to Gladys!
That was so amazing! Garth and the back up were spot on with that performance. And Gladys looks stunning!!
Smiles, so so amazing Suse, feels really great listening, how are you doing?

Didn't see that one coming...well done
Love you Garth. Thank you so much for your wonderful voice.

Please dont forget that this song is spectacular also because of THE PIPS with that choreography and that WOOTWOOT.
Go get it Garth! We aren’t that different as people…if we only focused on what makes us come together then what divides us
Absolutely love it the man has soul
I appreciate all the love and support 💯❤️

Apart from the original, that's the best I've heard.
I really wish this performance was 6:02 rather than just the delicious 3:02 that we got😊... Best cover... of one of my favourite songs...ever!👏👏👏... and those 3 Pips(?!)... As 'sharp as a tack'! ... Well done, everyone!👏👏... Bravo!!!🎉❤🥰

I adore Garth Brooks but when I saw this i initially I thought “oh no dude” but he sounded just great, I’m glad Gladys appeared to approve as well.
I did not know Garth could step outside country, I thoroughly enjoyed this!
I appreciate all the love and support 💯❤️
The song was initially written for country genre and called Midnight Plane to Houston. But then the label thought Cissy Houston would do great, changed the title and also get Gladys to do her own rendition
He did a whole album of rock music in '99 and contributed to a KISS tribute album.
Garth did his thing...👏
Hey did an excellent job.
I never tire of watching this clip

Super Duper Garth
OMg he sang that song so well and im just now seeing this, he was able to kinda cross over as one of the greatest country singers and sing this soul classic by Gladys knight just perfect.
I will alway's love ❤️ Garth Brooks for this !
What a great tribute of respect from a great Country singer to one of the finest R&B singers of the era. And you could see the mutual appreciation lit up in both of them. Now isn't that what makes music great. ❤
Just a brilliant rendition. It just goes to show that an accomplished artist in one genre can often cross over and nail it.

THIS IS WHY WE ROCK WITH GARTH
