Somebody said she forgot the words. She ain't forget nothin! First of all she's been singing the song FOREVER!! I'm sure it gets old a bit, repeatedly singing the same thing. And let's not forget y'all Ms Khan is a slurrer. She slurs a lotta words. She could be singing "just another night" but what your ears heard was "so my brother's right". Further more she can sing what she dang well please, that's how much I love her. Hey, I'm usually floored when she walks out onto the stage. WHHOOOO!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 CHAKA KHAAAAAAN!!!! Aggggggh!!!🤩😜😜😜🤪😀😀😀😀😃😂
@@Digginbehindthedikeslike my sister told me she's getting up in age and 50 years of touring has taken it's toll on her. I remember the first time I saw her she was still with the band Rufus. Her vocals were so on point and powerful she made the hairs on my head stand at attention.
Funny story , years ago I had a cousin come from Puerto Rico , anyway he was trying to relay to me, in his broken English ,that he liked an artist named Shot Gun , to which I replied who ? , he repeated Shot Gun , I finally figured out that he meant Chaka Khan , Man did I laugh hysterically LOL .
I'm proud to be a UCLA Med School trained pediatrician, but I must acknowledge my special love for music also, and I loved Chaka Khan and Rufus and the superlative music they produced ever since I saw them in the mid 70s at the Fabulous Forum! I must definitely admit my supreme love for the talents of Chaka Khan!
I've seen Chaka Khan sing this song at many concerts. It appears to me that Chaka Khan is a little under the weather (maybe a head cold, etc). She's even singing the words to the song in a lower octave where she knows she can and get away with it. She still did a great job ! The backup singers are all great; holding it down!
@@Torihope1000 Cut her some slack ? How was my comment in any way negative. I'm a Chaka Khanaholic ! ! ! I love me some Chaka Khan! But as I stated, it appears to "me" Chaka Khan may be a little under the weather during this concert for the reason I mentioned, and how she's singing the song. Plus, I said she still did a good job.
Oh and she is still singing u go girl!! And she is up there in age too!! That's alright! I'm in my middle age too and I'm still singing!! And still kicking!!😁😄😀
She's not nailing it here to be honest which given her age is not a problem at all and much respect to the lady but to say this is a great performance is just not right.
@@traciescott1871 I’m sure they rehearsed plenty of times, but still you can’t stop Father Time from getting to your voice. It has happened to a few singers over the years, and Chaka is no exception.
@@jaysinger9941Valid point;however, the same rule would apply to all performers no matter the age. If a consumer pays to see Ann artist, showmanship does NOT go out the window. The "fan" is who supports the artist and the artist has an obligation. Perhaps the management should consider a " fail safe" plan in the event of an occurrence(i.e. have the audience sing the lyrics, band or back up singers take up more verses.) Better yet, do a medley and not full song. OR, fans can listen to their preferred song....at home or on radio! #Just saying...(done paid my good $...) Wish Sirius had a channel for Rufus &Chaka Khan like they do for Prince and MJ.
@@jaysinger9941 it's true she's not exempt. Lots of singers voices go south after years of singing. She's still one of the best to ever do it tho👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Look in her face like she wasn't really feeling it to me.But going on doing her thing. I've watched Chaka her career. I've also seen older Chaka getting up there with her iconic high beautiful scream voice. And she's kept her same lil signature dance her entire career.🤗 I love Chaka from day one .My sweet Jr high days ,"Tell me something GOOD!".
She’s older than when she first recorded it. The voice ages. She was 28 when it came out, and at this performance she was 65. I say she still did a great job.
Chaka khan has type 2 diabetes and that is a bitch to deal with. She has fought it though. . Maybe she wasn’t feeling too well here. Her voice is still amazing it just seems like her energy level was not where it usually is.
this is a great example of a drummer that is too mechanical; he has spent too much time worshiping the click track and not enough on making it feel good. Look up some JR videos on how to groove, cheers!
