James Brown - Living In America ( The Best Version ) 

Yeah... we all know the REAL best version... ;) *RIP APOLLO*

(from Bolivia) altho i no longer live in Wash DC, my god i love this song

The Hardest Working man in show business! Where would music be without James Brown?

No way is this the best version. The way it was done for the movie is the BEST, PERIOD!!!

What's a day without some funk? Just another day.The Godfather of Soul....Period. RIP living in A'miracle !

he was a great singer, composer, and band leader.

Hes still the godfather of soul .... rip

He sang with no monitors? Wow !!!

Rocky IV..............THE BEST VERSION

Mini Skirts / Halter Tops & Boots....{my style to this day....}Living in America.

I know, I know the words, but for the life of me I don't know what the fuck he is talking about.

So calm for a James Brown performance!

What's a day without some funk? Just another day.The Godfather of Soul....Period. RIP

Tempo WAY too fast to feel a good pocket. They just wanted to get done playing and get back onto the bus....SLOW DOWN and GROOVE !

When I was 14 James was my hero. We had never heard anything so funky....ever. To see some really early James and the Flames, search for the TAMI Show. Lot of early performers, like pre-68. We played a lot of his stuff. Not a white face in the bunch, but he transcended...

Perfect for Independence Day. Happy 224th to the Land of the Free!

Habe ohn noch bei seinen Konzert in Österreich gesehen!Der Mann war mit über 60.jahren ein Hammer!Vom Schlagzeugerpodium ihn Spagat am Buehnenrand gelandet!Schade der Tod!Andy!

this is the worst version.

What's a day without some funk? Just another day.The Godfather of Soul....Period. RIP Great clip!...He like Richard Pryor will be imortal!.

should be the National Anthem

You're right, this is the worst version.

james thas it the way he knows how .. god bless him .. he was nice person . the same with michael j .

don't like it

Gotta love this guy but he sounds like an old Japanese man.

Horrible versión. Los músicos la interpretan más acelerada como si estuvieran apurados. Y Brown ya está viejo para bailar.

Great musician great song great movie ROCKY IV

this reminds of eddie murphy's stand up when he was talking about James Brown.. 😂😂😂

damm house of blues in Vegas looks so big on tv. when you go there that shit was small as hell..

dam love this man

Do you really think this is the best? This is the worst version.

That version BLEW DOG

I can't see and listen to Maceo Parker. It's not could be best version...

living in A'miracle !

I like this version. The production behind him is impeccable! I prefer this tempo of the song the best. Much easier to dance too 😊

i love james brown! xoxoxoxo

like this version has a lot more funk plus theirs girls in it what more do u want lmao....

don't like it this is off the hook

Perfect..

really, this is the best version?? What's a day without some funk? Just another day.The Godfather of Soul....Period. RIP

I was fortunate enough to meet ames in Augusta, Georgia. It was an honor to meet him. I got to shake hands with the Godfather of Soul. It would be like meeting and shaking hands with Elvis.

THIS IS GREAT...BUT APOLLO CREED DANCING AROUND IS PERFECT

R.I.P. GODFATHER

This song was better in Rocky iv

James wouldn't recognize America today.

Actually is just a NEWER version not a " better version "

James wouldn't be allowed to perform this song today.

My man

I wanted the best version. Not James Brown with a mouth infection

What's a day without some funk? Just another day.The Godfather of Soul....Period. RIP I can't see and listen to Maceo Parker. It's not could be best version...

If he dies, he dies

Tight as hell !!! What a drummer !

Great clip!...He like Richard Pryor will be imortal!.

it alright but why didn't james dance? :/

buuuu

this one does have some dazzling visuals.....

Bless you all! All the best

Freakin love the short dancer and her performance at Woodstock 99

Naaah...The studio version is a lot better.

Should be the new American national anthem .

Thais is the worst version, Ole browns asleep!

I think this was recorded a few months before he died

Today is July 4th, 2024 and "Living in America" is a 1985 song composed by Dan Hartman and Charlie Midnight and performed by James Brown. It was released as a single in 1985 and reached number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song entered the Billboard Top 40 on January 11, 1986, and remained on the chart for 11 weeks. It was his first Top 40 hit in ten years on the US pop charts, and it would also be his last. In 1987, it was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song and won Brown a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance

this is off the hook

I like this better on the Rocky movie.

meh

Not the best version ☹️🤔🤔🤔🤔

Who is the red head dancer on the left ?

really, this is the best version??

the best version was 01/26/1986 New york

not so much...

This is a terrible version

0:09 I knew that I would!

lol is this n wearing wig?

Sorry , I have seen the Soul Brother # 1 many times , when I lived in NYC in the 60's and this is not his best , and I agree with someone who said its over-produced...too much going on , that's un-needed !

Worst version.

Happy 4th

Great clip!...He like Richard Pryor will be imortal!. WOW!! :) WOW!! :) the best version was 01/26/1986 New york I am more concerned about the election- I liken it to Mad Magazine- no 'lighter side'- :(

This is horrible. The singers and dancers should be kicked off the stage.

James era la mona Giménez de EE UU y la mona es el James Brown de Córdoba!!!!!!!

i am in sweden but when i listten to this black guy i am in america.

！

소울의아버지

MR DYNAMITE MR OUTTA SIGHT JAMES BROWN!!!!

WOW!! :)

The bass player is faking. Maybe a few others too.

Che brutto Audio Ma pke? James un grande

Even for James....this was totally over produced.....not a fave.

I can barely hear the ladies singing

That stage is too small.

He does not say Las Vegas

Wanna give him a hug

I am more concerned about the election- I liken it to Mad Magazine- no 'lighter side'- :(
