Me,2025

[@turnthepage867]

See..I'm so proud my family raised me with this music.

[@tkendirli]

Damn woman, you owned the song.

[@JessicaLanear]

The real question is who did her hair!!! Healthy, shiny, bouncy, feathered. The curls held on for dear life. That stylist did that!!

[@Goldun-nah]

She did just sing this song, she narrated and performed it!

[@SuperMusicman1963]

All I can say is; WOW! What a performance!! It brings tears to my eyes. If you love soul music, Gladys had to be the creator of Soul! Fantastic!

[@JoshuaBolwerk]

Mine too😢

[@giona600]

This is what the music industry need now! That's quality, soul, interpretation, tecnique, love, passion and preparation. Love that woman

[@freidalynnmorris3894]

I’m watching in 2024! Yep great taste!!!!

[@catherine1565]

This version moves me to tears ❤Thank you Gladys🌹❤️

[@jerrygoldfarb7739]

By far best version of this women's anthem! Gladys is one of the most underrated female vocalists-this is actually not the full version but starts in the middle

[@jensillum]

Damn how she can sing, soul and power!

[@RBS_]

...Gladys is INVESTED in this Song! ....notice how she whips her head tightly during this performance, holding her notes, and 'acting' out the lyrics......She took an omnipresent Disco tune, and turned it into an anthem of personal STRENGTH and resolve....BRAVURA... (4:05) ....

[@march23aries]

MY LORD. The great interpreter!

[@alanwisdom7777]

This version is of a depth, of a beauty which touches the essence of being...✨

[@donnawalters6233]

[@josesuarez9156]

[@rugbydazz2264]

Now that is a true performer, a voice like no other a national treasure for the United States, let's hope they recognise her as such, black and white folk alike.

[@djmuis11]

Best version ever, love it!!

[@patriciamuratore5263]

Si tuviera ese talento, no le pediría nada más a la vida...

[@HodayaMongwe]

Wow! Wow! You're a true legend Ms. Gladys Knight. Much respect!!!

[@scottmathews3777]

When Gladys sings this song, you feel that she means it.

[@annetteboyd267]

She can sing her ass off

[@elizaeri1295]

I have to say I agree with that... Anyway,the masked singer brings me here...

[@higgybaby1]

This is the dress she had on the first time I saw her in person January 31, 1981, and she sang this song too. Thanks for posting this.

[@stephenevans4287]

If you want a timeless definition of soul this is it

[@allenarkansas9006]

Thanks for all the great memories this is truly heart felt

[@cherylcooper388]

Great interpretation, but then Gladys has always been a constant favorite vocalist of mine. Aretha & Gladys hold 1st & 2nd place for me.

[@dsteph2789]

Gladys and Dee Dee Sharp for me.

[@niveslokosek5534]

Great song and Great Gladys

[@ArielleRobinsonqueeniethanatos]

Soo powerful I felt it all. Every note hitting differently then that recorded legendary song. Something about live breaths life into every song. Love it

[@annparas100]

Magic....pure magic...and one of my biggest disappointments is when she cancelled her Australia tour....we had tickets for Melbourne gig and she cancelled.I will forgive you Gladys but we missed out.......

[@normadesmond6017]

What a magnificent voice....

[@bengtlindqvist9309]

I'm blown away. Gladys can perform, others can not...and should not even try

[@gracematsebula1785]

This woman is something else...

[@jeffstewart7045]

Gladys Knight should have released this as a single, pure magic....

[@housedancer4359]

Jeff Stewart its on a album named touch. Maybe you didn't know :p

[@jeffstewart7045]

Thanks Liam, I was aware of it as I have the album; I just think it would have been one of her biggest hits if released as a single. Looking forward to seeing her 'live' in Birmingham, UK in early July!

[@miniummouse1481]

Sang Gladys🔥You look absolutely beautiful 💞

[@michaelstapleton2768]

This is when songs were sang! She's such an amazing singer and pure talent.

[@spartacus7216]

JUNE 2024❤

[@13realmusic]

This is great quality. Digital film still doesn’t hold up like the original.

[@knockout912]

Something about Kelly Rowland reminds me of a young Gladys Knight!

[@soulstrength]

I can see that.

[@murphypaschal]

Incredible.

[@arnoldblashak171]

So true

[@juanjo3413]

At first I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong And I grew strong And I learned how to get along And so you're back From outer space I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, not I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got…

[@christophermendez2027]

Awesome lyrics if I may say

[@pascalmathys6573]

I love her voice so much! wow

[@paulwien65]

What a performance!!! Goosebumps

[@theodidymus4636]

every time I look at this interpretation, I remain petrified. I rediscover this orchestration which amplifies the original version. And then ... there is Gladys Knight, the sublimated embodiment of all abandoned and scorned women, who try to rebuild a better life. Huge respect for Paris, France.

[@Orlanzepol123]

I heard this song performed and lip-synchinged by a Drag Queen in a gay club in NY about 30 years ago. The performers lickness to Gladys and the earth shattering sound of her hi-fi sound of the soundtrack playing Gladys voice just BLEW. ME AWAY. You just had to be there to know what I mean.

[@livefluid4302]

This is a reinterpretation of unquestionable beauty and to doubters i need you to forget the original version of Gloria, this is the empress reaching deep to deliver a rendition of searing conviction.
