Moody's Mood For Love - Take 6, Brian McKnight, Patti Austin

[@kemetanew4579]

No auto-tune folks. Real singers with real voices.

[@acol4196]

Moody Mood for Love never gets old.

[@tracyskins7854]

No not!!!!🤗🤗🤗

[@jimmygunn9775]

It's one for the ages !!!

[@Drtruman]

Messaging from 2023 and I'm here to say music went in a totally different direction, and it ain't it! Miss these days.

[@popzanglesamsterdam]

Those aren't backing vocalists... They are Take 6! Check them out, they're one of the best close harmony group in the world :-)

[@troylynnbrewster7315]

The very best!

[@cdub2751]

💪🏾Facts!!😍

[@davidjoelson131]

How 'bout Take 6 featured on Jacob Collier's incredible take on "All Night Long" - probably 30 years after this Moody's Mood recording! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKTToox9r5KNZ9U

[@tashagriffin6887]

You better Say it

[@jeannemcphatterbennett9139]

King Pleasure the original the best.

[@nuyawk55]

Wow! Brian McKnight kills it and Patti Austin might be one of the most underrated voices in music! And don't sleep on Take 6

[@cdub2751]

😂I absolutely agree ,take6 melodies help me relax/sleep, but I'm not in that place2 sleep on take6😂👍🏾👍🏾

[@jarbon5]

When I listen to this, I'm hearing Brian and Patti, but I can't help focusing on what's going on in the background. Take 6 is working it out back there! They are awesome on this!

[@pesante5]

Take 6 is killing that harmony! Woooooow

[@SianaRepmad]

now-a-days VERY few people can sing like that live

[@DaddyTre65]

Those are eight REAL singers! Brian McKnight and Patti Austin sound great bending those jazz-pop notes, and Take 6's harmonies are too smooth! I never heard this performance before. Thank you for posting!

[@karenmay9396]

Take 6 are just amazing!!

[@mattmitchell4725]

I totally agree with you Take 6 is awesome

[@joelkeeley793]

Best back up vocal band I’ve heard, that’s saying something.

[@ricogarci1023]

Beautiful people, Great talents: Brian Mcknight, Patti Austin, Take 6 and the great Quincy Jones... I couldn't ask for more!

[@w.blueman7479]

Brian McKnight.......so great! I hear a bit of Stevie Wonder in his great voice.

[@Faithspective]

+W. Blueman ME TOO!!

[@evaplazaarmengol]

W.

[@joelkeeley793]

Because they’re both amazing. 😉

[@mwmann3684]

W. Blueman • I see a lot of Luther Vandross, in his facial features, too. 👍

[@JCMthebrand]

But better lol. Brian at his height might be top 5 vocalist all time

[@playkma]

I miss hearing music & seeing groups & performances like this

[@nellyluscious]

Gosh that Brian Mcknight can make the coldest heart Smile!!! Take 6, Patti Austin & Brian was a great blend for this song!!!

[@murph3001]

Timeless vocal performance . This is forever !

[@rosalindscott673]

I Dedicate this song to my Dad, who could blow a Mean 🎷 Sax! Passed down to me. ...... I played for 1 yr....... It wasn't my thing but I Love the sound it creates!!! I Love You Daddy!❤❤❤❤👓

[@hakimamir]

awesome ... amazing song... RIP Quincy. thank you for all these wonderful music in our lives

[@mavelvalencia8821]

It's one of the best versions I've ever heard of Moody's Mood and there's a lot of good ones out there

[@keithgriffiths9864]

Queen Latifah version is great too ❤

[@stuartyirui]

Lets us not forget the author of these incredible lyrics, Clarence Beeks, otherwise known as King Pleasure. He was a genius whose words for this and other great jazz tunes will live forever.

[@roxannenoronha]

It was Eddie Jefferson who wrote these brilliant lyrics (not King Pleasure)...Mr. Jefferson is so underrated.

[@deecoleman5661]

​@@roxannenoronhathank you for this trivia information about Eddie Jefferson. Had no clue he wrote this song and he was born in my hometown in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.

[@Danielbullymax9]

Not true. I wrote these lyrics

[@Danielbullymax9]

​@@roxannenoronhaNot true. I wrote these lyrics in school

[@Danielbullymax9]

​@@deecoleman5661I Daniel Ric Jr wrote the lyrics

[@Everythingfreshandsassy]

Oh, I declare, I just git so giddy after listening to Brian McKnight and Take Six!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cheriep9831]

I love this combination of entertainers and this performance it was wonderful.

[@LMmccallL57]

One of the most romantic songs ever! Fantastic group to perform it, too.

[@nettereale5951]

[@reneexuereb8485]

Brian’s voice is magnetic!

[@ricogarci1023]

These people are truly heaven sent! Thanks God ! You provide us real music ( still ) in this world. We need more artists like them...

[@TheAfrocubana]

Still enjoying this in 2019 !

[@beepayne5350]

Still listening to this may 2021

[@Gilbirt4333]

This video should have way more likes. Take 6 and Brian McKnight what else do you need Patti Austin of course.

[@jpmp1201]

Great rendition of a classic.

[@cocoachunky9619]

Brian doesn't add many vocal runs here compared to his usual live performances, but the ones he does add in this performance are soulful, tasteful, and perfect I think

[@lylecosmopolite]

Moody's Mood for Love" has the most complicated melody of any jazz song I have ever heard.

[@briansrensen8204]

He sings exactly as on Quincy's record Q's Jook Joint. I thought it was playback at first.

[@ViktorVonGhoulie]

The melody blows my fucking mind lmao reevaluating my music atm

[@kristofferwash1]

Expertly performed.

[@ppv_tahoe]

I have watched this 10 times today. Simply unbelievable.

[@ppv_tahoe]

Still watching this. Unbelievable talent

[@pianistica]

TAKE 6, Patti and Brian are just amazing!!!. Man!, Brian really takes my breath away! :P looks so great! and the way he sings :) I've got a crush! ahaha.

[@caryonkirkland1632]

wow, will never grow old. a classic and new always!

[@analizam3903]

Oh my goodness such a romantic song & a lovely one🥰🤙Brian Mcknight is so unique🤎💝💖

[@murph3001]

First time I heard this version if a great song _____ wonderful

[@dalemacavinta7484]

I always go back listening to this... such talent that can never be reproduced.

[@TheWorldClassBlackChick]

Tears in my eyes

[@nancycriderhamilton1429]

Oh my Oprah DID have, omg… some jazz, on her show! Bravo. She had so much opportunity to teach the public about Jazz . Patti Austin is up there with the greats like Ella and Sarah.

[@iamjaysaul1169]

Patti's scat riff is perfect with the harmony to bring it home in the end..

[@georgialouisew4152]

This was 13 years ago. I saw Brian perform live about 2 years ago and he sounds exactly the same! ❤

[@EvaSimontacchijazzsinger]

Awesome. I just can't get enough of this. I keep on listening to it.... Such beautiful beautiful vibes!

[@tshklar]

This is amazing. His control is just unbelievable!

[@michaelhorton1350]

Countless performances of this standard, done by the all-timers, are easily forgotten with this knock-out arrangement. With Quincy in front row, digging the proceedings, cant’ help but think Q had hand in charting the number. Take 6 and Patti nail this one. Thanks for posting. Aloha...

[@martinashamoon5268]

years later this is still one of my favourite videos on here :)

[@theresatitus-lawson3431]

Wow, wow, wow! That was so beautiful! Never heard this rendition before. I have the one by King Pleasure 1952 and played that all through my young adult life. Not taking anything away from King Pleasure, whom I love; but this singing and harmony by Brian McKnight, Patti Austin and Take 6 was outstanding!

[@clr1003]

CAME HERE AFTER HEARING IT ON THIS CHRISTMAS. THAT BACK IN THE DAY CAME OVER ME. WISH THE TIMES WERE STILL IN PEOPLE HEARTS 😢 LOVE THIS SONG ALWAYS...

[@sharon18334]

I am going to request Brian sing this song next time and ruly. I love take 6 and Patti aldo. Jazz at its finest.

[@miglenakirilova4559]

O my God...I haven't words, brilliant 👏

[@roxyross238]

Beautiful Voice Brian Mcknight ❤😘

[@sylviassuccess]

Whoever disliked this must be deaf or just crazy

[@bigtopvoice2197]

Hodaya Yahshar’el i think they made a mistake while swooning 🤣

[@marcgurrola]

This is a priceless treasure. Thank you for uploading this so long ago.

[@tahira1]

Some of my favourite vocalists here! Patti is sublime. Brian is so under-rated.

[@NinoAzurin]

Who is watching this in 2019! Damn, Elliot Yamin's version lead me to this, always loved Take 6, this is like overload! I miss the old music, so much garbage music nowadays sighs

[@dakotastepney2136]

2021

[@alvaritoconde6966]

Such a great music, love all this since i was 10 years,

[@florriehathorn1890]

What a great combination! Only the best!

[@jarbon5]

The whole time I listen t this, I'm listening to what's going on in the background. And, Take 6 is doing a phenomenal job back there, too! Brian McKnight and Patti Austin are doing a very good job up front, no doubt about that, but I love Take 6 helping to give them a lovely melody for their voices to play on. They do a gorgeous job of that:)

[@gatske]

God, what a voices! Brian!!!! Take ^!!! And Patty Austin!!! THey are awesome!!!! Love from Holland!

[@disgurluvsmuzik]

Thx I have this recorded somewhere on VHS oh how I miss those days. I would watch this performance over and over. I know it by heart. I love Take 6. Joey had crop. Alvin just started growing his dreads.

[@ngrubbs100]

Absolutely love this version better. Take 6has been a long time favorite since I was a young girl. God bless each of you. ❤❤❤ ***You can't be critical and complimentive at the same time ❤

[@cynthiahawkins2389]

Take Six requires a hip, sophisticated ear. I remember a man I really dug. Thought he was pretty sharp. I played QUIET PLACE for him. Which has those soaring, killer harmonies that the guys do - I am nearly in tears whenever I hear them. They are THAT GOOD. Well, this person listening? Totally unmoved. I gotta admit, after that I didn't love him anywhere near so much...

[@CoSwan123]

I was there!!!

[@joshuapaivamatoscordeiro7409]

Lucky man!!

[@martinashamoon5268]

Antonio Leclaire omg luckiest i wasn't alive for those kind of music but i wish i was

[@cdub2751]

!Wow! Wht a Blessing 👍

[@sweetpuffbaby]

just beaufiful awesome!!!! love this song!!!! he just stills my heart!!!!

[@vetgirl71]

🤩 wow! Outstanding performance & beautiful song , originally sung & written by artist genius King Pleasure! This song was played religiously on WBLS radio station by Famous DJ Frankie Crocker every night at 8pm, on his “Quiet storm “ program before he closed out. So many memories when I was a kid growing up in the 70’s in Brooklyn, New York! This song is a classic! 👏🏾👏🏾😊❤️

[@jaihemingway3680]

Divinely executed!!!

[@atouchofraw]

I enjoyed that to the max, made me think about my brother, who sings like that

[@Ritemon]

Can't get enough of this! 🥰

[@deedivas8603]

I can't believe I have never seen this. LOVE!!!

[@sentimentalmood1]

the human voice ... harmony ... expression ... pure beauty

[@JazzyJean]

Always a favorite.Just great!

[@jlbarnes7]

Awesome version, great singing and harmonizing by Take 6.

[@gmonet46]

This is a mecca to me. My soul reaches its peak when I hear Brian and Patti, but c'mon....Brian blows me away when he "tells it "to Oprah.."..let me get next to you.." I bust up.

[@takemyrocketship]

This is priceless. I can watch this over and over again.

[@blockhead4513]

This is an incredibly DIFFICULT song to take on man. Only Take 6 can pull this magic off.

[@pmugarura]

brian mcknight KILLS it on the vocals. thanks for sharing!

[@yantoo66]

Just amazing, I could listen to this every day

[@georgeklimes7604]

[@SuperHurricane75]

[@cartiergl]

This is sublime,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,bravo!!!

[@playkma]

Patti Austin walked out there & ripped it!!

[@talesis1]

Kris Blake you have 2 idiots in the comments above that say she ruined the song. They obviously don’t know real music. One even has the audacity to say Amy Winehouse was a better singer than Patti Austin. Oookkk!!!

[@rosalynb8942]

Travis Armstead LOL just gotta ignore somethings when it's too ridiculous.

[@kristofferwash1]

Definitely showed the young man up.. lol
