Gladys Knight and the Pips "If I Were Your Woman" 1972

[@anthonyhosea8780]

*Good LAWD* Auntie Gladys!! That rich, velvet, honey & chocolate-drenched voice really pierces & moves the soul. Clearly whoever disagrees is already dead.

[@wptaries]

What you said!

[@mindynewton2967]

Agree 💯 %

[@karinajacobs6447]

I was dead, her voice just brought me life today! I just saw her on the masked singer and she was nailing all the modern day songs too like, Lords Royals, Bruno Mars and other songs, good lord I was so moved 😻👏🏽amazing voice.

Aretha may have been known as the queen of soul, but Gladys is right in there with her! What a voice!

[@trevorvaisey5860]

Aretha the Queen , Gladys the Empress ❤️❤️❤️

[@DavidMichalis]

yes sir .

[@allworld4414]

Yeah, Ree Ree was the Queen, but Gladys is The Empress of Soul, unparalleled.

[@kaysaladd5873]

Gladys sings with so much pain and passion in her voice much like David Ruffin Love them both

[@nikkisolomon8340]

I would have to look up this David Ruffin person. I dont know who that is, but I agree with the first part of your statement. She is one of the persons who was inspired me to start singing professionally. I listened to her since I was really young and was in awe from day one.

[@jeanbaer9149]

Me too. RIP David. I will never forget you and that "whiskey voice"

This woman can sing n looks good up to this day

[@Mike-yg8ig]

This is greatness. Dionne Warwick is my favorite vocalist of all time, but Gladys Knight takes a back seat to no one. Her power, passion, range and phrasing is superlative. What an amazing singer. There is no talent like this anymore. Maybe the best vocal job in pop music history?

[@NevadaBoss]

Words fail to describe just how great a singer Gladys is/was...second (maybe) only to Aretha, she was the greatest female soul singer of the Golden Age.

[@jeanbaer9149]

Lord have mercy that voice rocks my soul every time I hear it!!!
