The way she pronounces her lyrics is so matter of fact and seductive at the same time, iconic, she doesn’t even need to try !!

Chaka is still the Queen of Funk hands down though this wasn't her best performance. But she still has it even at 63 and I think if she was vibing with the orchestra more she would have killed it Chaka style. Still sexy & beautiful..

Dunno what it is but the band seems to be playing some weird pop rhythm rather than clipping the funk. Just sounds like a "lets remove the groove version". Shame, but Jools usually gets it right so seeing as a one off.
